every single femslash ship in bungou stray dogs is considered a rarepair by the bsd rarepair exchange standards; even the most popular one has less than 200 fics on ao3 using the otp: true filter. so, i thought it might be fun to run a round of this exchange dedicated only to femslash ships! this will include couples and polyships made up of canonically female characters (i.e. no genderbend ships). nonbinary/transfem/etc. headcanons of canonically female characters are allowed.

this exchange will be hosted through ao3 with an optional discord server for participants to join. assuming there is enough interest to run the exchange, the discord server will open at the conclusion of the interest check.

this form will remain open through july 31, 2026

Dear Ozaki-san, - Dear Higuchi, - Dear Lucy-chan, - Dear Naomi-kun,

for @femslashbigbang's april 2026 monthly challenge: letters never sent

gin & their sapphic crushes, through letters.

Anne’s Room is a safe space. This has been true for Lucy ever since she was little. Her earliest memory is not of her parents or a caring family, but of Anne collecting her into her arms as sobs wracked her body and wiping her tears away. She remembers a feeling of comfort settling over her shoulders—for the first time in her life, she knew, without a doubt, that she was safe. As long as she was with Anne, no one would be able to hurt her.

on lucy, gin, and safe spaces

inspired by anne's and gilbert's letters from anne with an e which i still have memorized for some reason but make it lucygin

Dear Gin,

I love you. Sorry for not telling you sooner.

Lucy

p.s. may i have my pen back?

Dear Lucy,

I apologize if this letter is upsetting but I cannot let you leave without telling you. I’ve kept this to myself for too long and I used to think that was for the better but I’m not so sure anymore. I may not believe in love at first sight but I did know something back then too: I knew you were going to be important. I want you and only you. I’m sorry.

With Love,

Gin

“Really?” Lucy asks, but relief breaks over her face like a wave. “I’m glad. I’ll see you around, then?” That’s even worse, but they can’t bring themself to turn her down quite as harshly. “Okay,” Gin signs, and tells themself that it’s just because they don’t think she’ll understand anything more complicated. Lucy grins, sharp and wide and bright, and nods to them before disappearing back around the campus hallways in a flurry of tulle and patchwork skirts.

(There's a new transfer student in Gin's class. They don't feel strongly about this at all.)
