I ship Riker/Troi and Picard/Beverly, so I am not at all about this being a long-term thing, but something that can be fun for a while works. I am up for either Odan complicating things or they've had all the therapy and he's not a factor. I also up for this them getting together, an established relationship or deciding to break up.
Maybe they get together through their shared love of acting or through Deanna or something else. Maybe they split up because Deanna makes it three people in the relationships. Maybe it's just fun for now and nothing else matters. I am up for some tropes or subverting tropes like aliens made them do it or having to pretend to be married.

Much as I love these two, I don't want it to be easy for them. What fascinates me are their cultural differences and how they navigate them. And the prejudice they face.
But what if they're together and spending some time on Earth. What prejudice do they face and how do they deal with it? What if both T'Les and Elizabeth live, how does T'Les feel about having a half-human granddaughter? In the E2 universe, how do Trip and T'Pol negotiate bringing up Lorian when he's half-Vulcan and growing up on a ship of mostly humans?
And also, just how do they have a relationship like any normal people where it's not immediately all easy. They're working together a lot of the time - how does that affect their relationship? What if in Home Trip told T'Pol how he felt. Does she go ahead and marry Koss and how do they deal with that? Or does she not marry him - does that make everything simpler or more complicated?

Pelia:
I've been really loving Pelia this season and would love to see some more of her. What happened last July to make her try LSD again, after having not tried it since the 1990s? What made her think it would work this time after it not having worked the previous two? Are there any other times when all the stuff in her quarters comes in useful? Or how did she get it all there? Someone must have helped her and therefore know about it. I'm open to some OCs POV of this. Then there's that time travelling doctor she travelled with. Up for a Doctor Who crossover here, with any Doctor you think she'd work well with. Does she ever get to go on a landing party?
Pike & Una:
I miss seeing these two spending time together, whether it's working together or just being friends together. I'd rather nothing about Four-and-a-Half Vulcans or the aftermath of New Life and New Civilizations. But there must have been times when they've been prepping for a dinner party or clearing up after a dinner party. Or discussing work. Or just their lives. Does Pike ever talk to her about how much she's changed since The Cage? How and when did Pike tell her about his vision of his future? How does she know that he's so sentimental about horses? Does she tell him about what she learned about Boimler's poster of her?
Pike & Erica:
These two have such a great relationship on the bridge I'd love to see it explored more. As the two best pilots on the Enterprise, do they ever try to boast about their abilities and try to one-up each other? Do they ever race each other - maybe in the holodeck/simulator they have at spacedocks, or maybe they have to race on a planet for some reason. Do they ever chat about her experience in Hegemony part 2? Maybe something from when she first joined the Enterprise and they're getting to know each other and coming up with their piloting shorthand as to how close/fast to go.
Pike & Spock
These two would basically die for each other, so I'd love to see more of their friendship. Do they have long philosophical discussions? Is Spock teaching Pike about logic and the Vulcan Way? Did Spock ignore Number One's advice and learn the hard way why not to get Pike onto the subject of horses? Does Pike try and convince Spock to go horse riding? How about the first time Spock's invited to dinner in the captain's cabin? Or Pike trying out cooking Vulcan food and needing Spock to taste test as he goes.
Sam & Jim Kirk
I loved these two together and how like brothers they are: arguing but clearly care about each other. I'd just like more of the same, whether when Jim's visiting the Enterprise or they chat over subspace or through letters. Does Jim tell Sam know about Carol and her pregnancy? Do they ever talk about Sam's family? Does Sam ever attempt to tell Jim about his work in more detail? How about after New Life and New Civilizations, does it make it weird for Jim if Sam is venting about his boss, Spock?

I don't "ship" these in the traditional sense. I like them because of the potential for things to get MESSY. I don't want either of them as a traditional romance.
With Kira/Winn, I love the idea of a toxic, codependent sort of relationship, of Kira having unwanted attraction to Winn that is tied up in her complicated relationship with her religion, Winn taking advantage of her. Alternately, Kira thinking by sleeping with Winn she might be getting one over on her, because Winn is weirdly tied up in her even as late as season 7 when she's involved with the pah-wraiths, going to her for religious advice. Regardless, looking for a dump-truck of religious guilt mixed in with being hot for powerful older women :)
With others, see the letter!

Prompts/Likes:
With Sisko/Jadzia, my preferences are more similar to the ones in "traditionally shippy DS9 requests" in my sign-up, except that I'm more flexible about if you want to write this as a more casual, less "endgame" relationship, like them hooking up but it not turning into an ongoing romance too. I also love more classic "romance" plots as well! But I'm more open to you going a different route, so long AS there is either some reciprocal romance or sex - no pre-romance/pre-het/UST, please. A version of "Fascination" where Sisko reciprocates Jadzia's interest in him would be cool if you want a specific idea!
With Curzon/Sisko, it could be that they hooked up once or a few times, or a more ongoing relationship that's also mixed with a sort of mentorship.
Julian/Curzon I like as a fun time-travel hijink: Julian goes back in time, meets a younger Curzon Dax and they bang. What kind of dramatics ensure? How does this affect his relationship with Jadzia or Ezri when they get back? (No endgame Julian/Jadzia or Julian/Ezri please, as per the DNWs, so this is more "how would it affect their friendship/working relationship?")
With Garak/Curzon, the idea would be that they met on Romulus pre-canon and something happened. Again, exploring how this impacts what Jadzia or Ezri think about him or their platonic/coworker relationship would be interesting, as well as how this might impact his (hopefully shippy) relationship with Julian.... Sisko finding out could also be funny!
Dax Symbiont/Sisko is about the idea of Sisko being with multiple Daxes throughout time, and could be an interesting place to do a soulmate AU, though I'm up for whatever you have in mind there!

With Disko, I tend to see it as one-sided on Dukat's end, and especially love stuff where he's really deluded about how much Sisko is not attracted to him. However, I'm also into the idea of a more reciprocal version where it's a hook-up or something else casual happening ONE time, maybe early on before Sisko really understands just how terrible Dukat is, or maybe as part of a power ploy by Sisko. And imagine what would happen if people found out about that? With these two, it's more about the humorous potential of the ship for me. I can't see it as Sisko ever having serious romantic feelings for Dukat, lol, unless the premise of the fic is that it's a delusional fantasy written from Dukat's perspective (in which case, disregard my DNWs related to that, but make it clear that's what it is. I actually find that idea hilarious).

I'm really into stuff that embraces the fraught history between these two, and the fact that they serve different worlds and Kira's (at least initial) discomfort with being into a Cardassian, especially Ziyal's killer. I'd like if it explored how that attraction and even eventual love is complicated by all that. Especially situations where Kira is a Bajoran politician and Damar a Cardassian politician after the war (if you go with a Damar-lives situation); there are a lot of fun ways you can play this, such as their relationship being politically unwise, them meeting up in secret at meetings/summits or whatever, or even a marriage alliance between the two of them to show their worlds are mending things? (And maybe in that scenario feelings aren't ALL there yet, but they grow over time.) I'd still like some kind of romantic resolution for them, but it shouldn't be an uncomplicated road.
(Or if you'd like to go more a lighthearted route, Dukat's reaction to Kira being into Damar but not him would be hilaaaarious)
(Or canon-complaint where they bang in Mila's basement - with messy feelings - always good ;))

Let's get some interesting backstory, worldbuilding, etc. fic about some of DS9's fascinating minor characters!
Mostly, with these women, I'd love to know more about who they were pre-canon, or at least pre-their involvement in the canon.
-How did Kasidy end up as, basically, a space pirate? What was her earlier life like? What is her family like, or the community she grew up with?
-What was Leeta's life like before she came to DS9? What was it like for her on Bajor, including during the occupation? What led to her becoming a dabo girl?
-What was Winn's life during the occupation, and as part of the Bajoran Resistance? How did her experiences differ from Kira? You can also use this to explore how Bajoran religion "worked" during the occupation in a more worldbuilding-style way.
-I'm also fine with post-canon realities for Kasidy and Leeta.
-With Kasidy and Leeta, while I'm not asking for stuff to be shipping-FOCUSED, if you want to delve into their canon relationships with Sisko and Rom, I love both of those ships (and they both need more fic) so I'm totally fine with that. I'm not a huge fan of Julian/Leeta as a focus (see DNWs) but it's fine as a temporary, background thing.
Most of my "likes" in the other prompts are romance- or smut-specific, but I do still really love gen that is focused on alien cultural differences, alien worldbuilding, and political drama.

I love a lot of the fandom cliches, particularly Only One Bed, fake dating turned real, friends to lovers. Can never get enough of those. | I’m a big fan of reading about characters in a relationship growing as people together, discovering new sides to themselves, figuring out how to live or raise kids together, etc. | I like soulmate AUs a LOT so long as the characters still get some chance to develop feelings organically, whether or not they are already aware of their soulmate status. Stuff where they find out before they are in love and kind of fight it at first, but end up getting to know and falling for the person anyway — love it, can’t get enough.| Falling in love with someone you'd never expect.| Outside character perspectives/reactions
Some things I really like for smut fic: Oral sex, especially cunnilingus or rimming. Strap-ons. Motorboating, nipple play (no clamps though), boobs/chest focus. Marking including/especially scent-marking but also stuff like leaving scars.

A lot of these are similar to how I feel about Garashir and Curzon/Sisko in earlier requests, but I also really love the potential for alternate universe shenanigans! I love the idea of Prime Garashir meeting AU Garashir before they (the former) are together, and if this nudges Prime Garashir to recognize their feelings and otherwise how it affects them! Lots of fun you could have here for how these meet. With AU Curzon/Prime Sisko, I think it would be really interesting both to explore where AU and Prime Curzon differ, but also how any version of Curzon reacts to the more mature, "settled" Sisko and what's changed in his life, from commanding a space station to being Emissary to the Prophets! Maybe this Curzon felt toward the Sisko in his universe, who is so much younger than him and naive as he knows him, like Jadzia does toward Julian at the beginning of DS9, but he really realllllly likes this version of him. Or maybe he did have a thing with his universe's Sisko that fizzled for whatever reason, and likes the opportunity to continue to it, but has to get to know them as separate people now! (Also, did this Sisko have anything with Prime Curzon at any point? Also fun to explore!)

Similar to previous requests for these ships
Trek-Specific Likes:
Similar to what I wrote with the previous Garashir and Curzon/Sisko requests, but with emphasis on the differences between how Cardassia, Trill, the Federation, etc. are in these different universes!
