I'm mostly familiar with Wild World and Pocket Camp, but bring in any lore or items or anything, I'll be happy to see it all.
Blathers: I'd love to see a museum haunting! During the day... or night. Would a day haunting be different with him naturally dozing off and visitors coming in? What manages to wake up the ever exhausted Blathers? I'd love to see him go out on an excavation and find something weird or cursed. Brings it back to the museum and all hell breaks loose? For art, seeing fish, insects, fossils and paintings would be interesting, especially glowing fish or dinosaur bones when its most quiet,
Shizue | Isabelle: Show me a day in the life of our favorite secretary! Is her life crazier when Halloween rolls around? Does she have to deal with villager pulling pranks and littering up the street with candy wrappers? How does she work on the decorations, or any other preparations? I'd love to see her trick or treat for lonely villagers or dress up, Isabelle would be cute as a mummy, maybe carrying bat balloons
Tanukichi | Tom Nook: The money is haunted. He has money dreams, A ghost steals his money and he has to go investigate it and bring his money back, But really, what about if the shop is haunted? Something goes on with Mable and Sable next door and he helps them? Or anything about him being a sneaky tanuki.
Relationships: All gen relationships are fine. Isabelle/Tom Nook, Blathers/Celeste. If you can make a ship work in this series, go for it. All animals, even the player.

Hè Xuán: What would happen if his fate had gone according to plan. The horrors he went through while he was still alive, or his suffering while he watched the heavenly court for all those years. What he's doing post-canon besides half-watching SQX. More on that Fire Social back in his hometown and all the creepiness there. Just what are all those secrets about the makeup? Do some creatures mix in?
I'd love to see his rocky relationship with Shi Wudu in other ways where they're fighting, especially over SQX. Anything about what HX does with SQX post-canon, or how they eventually make up their relationship... somehow.
Huā Chéng: I love his aesthetic with butterflies, maple trees, and red in general. Stars, for the ill-fated solitary star he was born under, too. What about that curse in more detail? What about his early life? While he was still serving as a soldier? Or a ghost fire? All those years he was alone or honing his skills to be strong. Anything with him dealing with how he really wants to make his existence brighter.
Líng Wén: It’s be interesting to see her earlier years when she was less outwardly kind, or more manipulative? Or, how she goes about things during the canon period, or any punishment beyond paperwork post-canon.
Mù Qíng: More on his fight to make a name for himself. More about his darker feelings towards Xie Lian, or what he did after leaving Xie Lian and Feng Xin? What if he had made a deal with Jun Wu after all and betrayed everyone by the end? Or, just go over his thoughts in general, I’m sure he thinks pretty darkly sometimes.
Shī Qīngxuán: He deserves so much happiness. That would be a good treat. What about his fears in early years because of the Reverend of Empty Words? Also, anything with him in his female form. How does he get on post-canon as a beggar more or less?
Shī Wúdù: I’d love to know more about what goes on in his brain. What does he think about HX and how much did he know? Did he have any hesitation before he switched HX/SQX’s fates, or did he just not care as long as he saved his brother? Which is true, but his POV would show some intriguing thoughts! And anything else with him choosing the fortunes of sailors/being as tyrannical as he is.
Xiè Lián: Book 4 is my jam, and all the lead up suffering to Xie Lian losing everything. But of course it’s great when he starts to grab ahold of his happiness during canon. More on his thoughts during the darkest points of his life? What if he joined Bai Wuxiang and released the Human Face Disease after all? Other happy moments he might have experienced while he was scrap collecting, or him just geeking out about weapons and other martial things?
Relationships: All gen relationships are fine. Xie Lian/Mu Qing, Xie Lian/Feng Xin, Xie Lian/Hua Cheng, Mu Qing/Feng Xin, SQX/HX, Xie Lian/Jun Wu, Xie Lian/Bai Wuxiang, Ling Wen/other Tumors, SQX/XL, SQX/SW, Hua Cheng/Xe Xuan, Ling Wen/Brocade Immortal. If you can make a ship work in this series, go for it.
