Don't Stop Coal Now!

Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real coal time
I feel alive
And the exchange I'll turn it inside out, yeah
I'm floating around in agony
So, (don't stop me now)
(Don't stop me)
'Cause I'm having a coal time, having a coal time~

You can, but if you offer worldbuilding assuming that the request will only be about MCs, then you're going to be disappointed. Like all the people who offer a ship thinking that their recip will only ever request fluffy shipfic and not angst or something.

ayrt

And just like fluff vs. angst, your request to have the worldbuilding focus on the MC vs. on OCs is a matter of optional details and can be ignored.

That's a good comparison, actually. You aren't guaranteed angsty fic, and you're not guaranteed worldbuilding fic about OCs. Your preferences are just that: preferences.
