Blaseball (Video Game)

Wordbuilding tags: ILB Deities and Entities, Siestas, The Navigation Map, Umpire, Weather Events

I’m so obsessed with Blaseball and I’d love to have anything with any of these tags. I love the multiple interpretations of the lore and worldbuilding, so feel free to put your little touches into the fic. I also love the Moist Talkers, the Monitor (Moist God) and the music of the Garages—anything based off one of their songs would be amazing.

The Expanse (TV)

Wordbuilding tags: The United Nations post-21st century, the Mars Terraforming Project, Martian culture and customs, Belter culture and customs

The Belter language fascinates me, I would love getting fic or meta about that. But also fleshing out any of the cultures and events we see on screen would get me excited. Is Mars' Terraforming still going? How did the full-fledged UN we see in series get set up?

The Lord of the Rings - J. R. R. Tolkien

Wordbuilding tags: Hobbit-records and the Red Book of Westmarch, Records marked 'thus said Legolas', Manuscripts and manuscript transmission, Calendar systems

Love the whole translation aspect JRRT was going for in LOTR so anything related to that would absolutely enthrall me. Also anything about archiving, comparing manuscripts and accounts gets me so that would be fun too.
