I have Lot set up for you. :)
I just wanted to let you know I have you slotted and I hope to start drafting in the next couple of days. Since his boyfriend is unnamed at this point, I will plug in a name when I prepare the draft. You can keep or change this name to whatever you decide best suits his character.

The first draft for Mitsuo. I went with Tairi for the boyfriend, but like I said, if there is another name you prefer, feel free to switch. Please let me know any changes you would like.

Everything looks good so far, it has just the right amount of creepy involved. I only noticed a couple of typos. "suite his mood" and "mettalic clicks" should be suit and metallic respectively. But other than that, it looks awesome~!
In fact, your story might have given me an idea for his boyfriend character.
Corrections made. I'm glad to know that the story is giving you an idea. :D
I have Lot and this was a long story so this one will be 3 mil.

Hi! the pet I have here is a fan pet if your okay with that!
Pet Name: Carver Hawke
PoV: Third
Preferred Length: Long
Setting: Dragon Age universe
Personality: He's bitter and feels inferior to his mage siblings, always feels like he's in their shadows. Has a real connection with his twin Bethany. Probably blames himself and (bitterly) Hawke for her death.
Physical traits: Taller than his siblings, muscular, short black hair, fair skin tone, blue eyes. Ref 1, 2, 3
Other characters to include: (male + mage) Hawke, Bethany (Only briefly bc she dies), Merrill (he has a crush on her!!) and you can include other characters like their mother, varric, Anders, grey wardens and etc if you find room for them.
Anything else?: here is his wikia page. I'd like for you to put him on the Grey Warden path and not the templars! If you don't think you can work with this character its all good!!
I have you slotted. I'm not familiar with the game but I have written for game characters in the past and I have read a lot of fantasy novels so I'm pretty sure I can do him justice. :D The links you've provided will also help. I should have a draft for you Tuesday or Wednesday. (Possibly sooner but I want to do my research so I get the details right.)

thank you! I'm excited to see what you come up with!
: hey there! I need lots of stories done and I can make you profiles in exchange for some (and can offer sP in exchange for others), if you'd be interested. uwu I figured I'd inquire before filling out any forms; I also like to give writers the option to choose the pet(s) they find the most interesting to write about. Let me know if you're interested!
I would be very interested in such an exchange. If you wanted to give me an overview of who needs stories, I can take a look and see which characters give me ideas. I've gotten much more comfortable working with fan pets recently as long as I have some reference material. (Unless I know the original, of course. :)
I could also send you my rough profile ideas if you'd like. Or you can take a look at the board linked in my sig (2nd link down) but it is a bit outdated. The pets that are my top priority right now would be Kimble, Kastle and Xaene since their stories are complete. You can let me know which ideas inspire you and we can work from there. I am always interested in profiles but I don't want you to feel overwhelmed because I have a lot of pets. xD
I think what I'll do is put you in a special slot since this would be more of an ongoing project than a single story/profile exchange.

: OKAY PREPARE FOR A TEXT WALL. Fortunately, most of my pets who are currently in need of stories are original characters, so you don't have to worry about the fandom ones for the most part uwu My Big Hero 6 pets all need stories (and yes, there are six of them), but I might attempt to write all those myself. If you feel an attachment to any of the characters, you're welcome to write for them though uwu I have an Iron Man fanpet (Addicted) who I've tried to write a story for and miserably failed several times, so if you are fond of Tony Stark you're welcome to give him a go. I also have a Thor pet if you'd prefer to do him. I've got Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit themed pets too — Kili (Kili), Thorin (Glory), and Tauriel (Rivendell). Rivendell already has a story started so I don't think you'll have to worry too much about her (unless you want to; she has room on her profile for two stories). AND NOW TIME FOR MY ORIGINAL PETS. Honolulu — beachy Hawaii ocean dog-fox thing. Lochran — jack-o'-lantern halloween spirit. Necrotic — wendigo doctor who consumes his dead/dying patients. Quinine — peacock-themed racing dragon who loves shakespeare. Ika and Uramaki — twin chefs; one is living and the other...not so much. Bakery, Bigelow, Lindor, and Stracciatella — these guys are the Whipped Cream Club; Bakery is a blind pâtissier (pastry-maker), Bigelow is a shy little tea sheeta, Lindor is a chocolatier, and Stracciatella runs an ice cream/gelato parlor. These last six pets are Subeta-centric.
All of my pets have examples of my profile-making. I'd appreciate rough profile ideas! How many stories per profile are you comfortable writing? (if it helps, my typical commission price for profiles is 20mil.) And pssh I have 39 pets, I know the feel of having a lot of pets so don't worry — I won't get overwhelmed. uwu
That sounds just dandy; I look forward to getting started uwu
One wall of text deserves another xD. I'm going to throw all this in a spoiler so it will hopefully be easier to read. I'll also throw in a few story example links since some of your pets are somewhat similar to characters I've worked with. Your stories will be completely unique, of course. (I'll send my profile ideas through smail so this post doesn't get too crazy long. xD)
Pet Stories
I have not seen Big Hero 6 or the Iron Man films so these would be at the bottom of my list since I know nothing about the source materials. (I am a huge Disney fan so if I get a chance to see BH6 I could possibly work on these guys in future.)
Thor pet: There are some Marvel characters I'm very familiar with. Unfortunately, Thor isn't one of them, though I did study world mythologies in college so I know a bit about the Norse gods his character is based from.
LOTR Pets: Here is a series I am very familiar with. :D I've not only seen all the films (both LOTR and The Hobbit) but I've read the books multiple times as well. I could definitely work with Kili and Glory. (Also Rivendell/Tauriel if you'd like but since you do have a story for her, I'd probably focus on the others ahead of her.) I have actually done an LOTR inspired pet story once before.
Honolulu: I have done a surfer dude story which came to mind right away. I also have one of my own pets who is a sea witch though this is more an intro than a full story.
Lochran: I can certainly work with spooky characters. I don't have an example posted but I do have a character planned for my pet Teros that is a sort of guardian of nightmare spirits.
Necrotic: I love anything based on legend or myth and I have done a dark story based on the black shuck of European legend. Just by looking up a basic article on the Wendigo, I can already tell coming up for ideas for him would be fun.
Quinine: You had me at Shakespeare. xD I am a huge Shakespeare nerd, so I can definitely work with him. I'll even get out my collection of plays and try to strategically work in a few lines to fit the story.
Ika and Uramaki: I enjoy doing stories with multiple points of view and I've taken part in a fictional zombie apocalypse blog in the past so this is a pair I could work with. I could also have fun detailing their varied cooking styles, if you like. I'm sure the contrast in ingredients would prove interesting.
Bakery, Bigelow, Lindor, and Stracciatella: Just the name Whipped Cream Club makes me hungry :D. Like I said above, I really enjoy doing series-type stories. I can have them take place around one event with each unique character's perspective or I can do each story around a unique event and work in the other characters. I love chocolate so detailing the artistry of their work to make the reader's mouth water will be no problem.
I would be comfortable with 2-3 stories per profile. I honestly focus more on quality than length when I write which makes it hard for me to give an exact length without drafting outlines for the pets. Generally, my longest story that I offer is a length of 3.5k-5k words for 7.5 mil which would be the equivalent of 22.5 mil but not every character fits with a story this long.
If it seems fair to you, we could say 3 stories per profile with not less than 2k words per story? The upper limit would still be 5k.

: no worries about the BH6 pets; like I said, I'll probably tackle them on my own. uwu That's where my username comes from after all. ❤️ No worries about Thor either, I actually got a bit inspired to write his story and I'm drafting it up now uwu Lord of the Rings is the fucking bomb. I'd definitely look forward to stories for all three of these guys, though Thorin should come last because I'm hoping to get a redone design for him. As for Tauriel, her second story will go in an extra tab on her profile, so it doesn't have to have anything to do with her current story. c: I'd definitely appreciate you working with all the rest of the pets you've listed too! would you like me to smail you forms for all the pets you've agreed to work with? I'd be happy to do so.
3 stories per profile sounds just fine! uwu If you write some longer ones (say, for the LotR guys), I'd be happy to do 2 per profile too, whatever suits your fancy. I'll go over your pet profile ideas now and smail you what I find, along with any story forms you need!
The first draft for Carver. I decided to do what I call a "segmented story" to allow for different events in Carter's life that follow the path of the game. I tried to work with the specifications you gave me and I did at one point use a conversation between Carver/Merrill from the game as given in the refs you linked me to. Please let me know if any details seem off or if there are changes you would like.
The first draft for Bakery. I tried to work in the fact that he is blind through the details and not be terribly obvious about it. The parts played by the other Whipped Cream Club members should give a little bit of an idea of where I will take their characters when I get to them. One thing I forgot to ask is if this is a formal club (like the four of them have meetings as the Whipped Cream Club) or if that was more a category just to show they are friends.
Also, I should have Lindor's draft for you tomorrow. I have the ideas for the story planned out, I just need the time to get it written.

: yOU SMELL LIKE A CHOCOLATE BAR THAT'S BEEN LEFT IN THE SUN oh my god I love this already! (though I do feel I should mention that these guys are, indeed, fully Subeta pet, no human at all, so some minor anatomy changes will be needed uwu But otherwise it's absolutely lovely!)
it's an informal title! they're just really good friends uwu I'm sorry I neglected to tell you that before!
I really like it so far!!! And I love that you put it into segments!
I think, the only thing i'd like to see changed, is that it could use a little more emotion and more details, even if you have to come up with some things, even exaggerating on the situations (making him cry, adding more interactions with the other characters, etc). I guess what i'm trying to say, is to upgrade it to something closer to complex stories? If you don't think it'd be a bother, or hard to do. I'm 100% on board with paying more if you're up to it! But I understand if its probably difficult to do!! As i said, I really like it! (i'm so bad at this, sorry!!!)
An updated draft for Carver. I'm all about getting the details right so additions are totally fine with me. In this draft I tried to increase Carver's emotional responses to various events and I also added more conversations. (I had one planned out between him & Bethany that somehow didn't make it into the first draft.) If you would like more emotion I can continue to add, but it would be helpful if you let me know which section(s) you feel are needing more.
An updated draft for Bakery. I think I got all anatomy correct. That actually raises a good question for when I do Stracci's story. Do you have a preference what I call her hands/feet since she is a bumbus? I can't recall if insect feet even have a special name.
I also have The first draft for Lindor. I went to his profile while I was working the draft to get a look at his overlay for descriptions and I was about ready to eat my computer. xD I had a great time coming up with meals that would appeal to him that contained chocolate.

Ahh, yes! The dialogue additions were what was kind of missing, as it ties the story together more. I think that'll be it! I'd just like to add that in the part with hawke interrupting merril and carver, it should have a space between of course and Hawke!
Make a trade so i can pay? :0
: Stracci's limbs end in hands (top four) and feet (bottom two) uwu I can't remember if insect feet have names either. I love the stories! They're both awesome uwu I have no complaints about either of them. I'll start coding the profile for Kimble in a day or two -- I'm a bit sick so I'm trying to take it easy :c
