God.... I could just imagine Mc "escaping" to go do chores with the other maids and skull just like... Picking her up out of nowhere and carrying her someplace else in the house

In her experience, noblemen are usually loud. They stomp around in their big expensive shiny shoes that have never seen sun, making themselves (and their mess) very well known. On top of that, they're normally pretty physically feeble, struggling with even basic lifting because of their life of luxury.

She does not expect Skull's inhuman strength. He sweeps her off her feet and carries her like she would carry a light box of lace. Nor does she expect his ability to move around the house like a wraith, sometimes quieter even than the servants. It's not unusual to hear screams about once a day in Skull's house- it's nothing to worry about, though. It's just the sound of Skull catching Mc off guard when he steals her back from chores.

Sunday Snippet

In honour of pride month, here's me making it sad and angsty 😭💔 (from a giant mess of a draft based on this idea, previous snippet here)

That summer, Wille and his princess made an appearance at Oslo Pride Parade. Simon stared at one of the official pictures from it, unable to determine how it made him feel. He couldn’t tell if Wille was there for himself or as a public figure expressing support. It didn’t count as a political statement anymore, apparently. Not when Wille had an unobjectionable girl by his side, at any rate, and if he was queer, then it was in a way that was easy for everyone else to ignore. They looked good together, Simon had to admit that, both of them beautiful and windswept and grinning at the camera, a rainbow flag wrapped around both their shoulders like a cape. It was the first photo of Wille Simon had seen where he was smiling for real, not his tight society smile, and he actually looked happy. For a moment Simon couldn’t figure out why the smile still seemed wrong, until he realised that Wille’s teeth had been straightened. He didn’t know why that, of all things, made him want to cry.

Pride and Prejudice au where Veritas (Ratio as Darcy) and Kakavasha (Aven as Bingley) are secretly involved, but must at minimum seem to be seeking wives for appearences. I can see Ruan Mei and Jelena (Topaz) perhaps being Jane and Elizabeth respectively?

[yourstory-teller]

Ok guys, so, I am currently obsessed with pride and prejudice and seriously thinking about maybe writing about it. Would you like that? Would anyone read it? Would you have any asks?? Or am I alone???

One of my dear, dear friends is doing an experiment in creative academic writing and I had the great honour of beta reading her work. In her own words: When confronted with a piece of literature, especially in an academic context, we have grown used to approaching it in specific ways. Instead of retracing these steps, Shapes of Pemberley aims to explore a well-loved novel from a new angle: From that of a transformative writer. Shapes of Pemberley is an amazing transformative piece of fiction (hello, dragons) and you should all go read it (did I mention there are dragons?).

Petulance & Presumption

Jane Austen’s P&P meets Narutoverse!

“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single shinobi of high calibre and last living member of a once powerful clan, must be in want of a wife.”

Mr. Darcy: Sasuke Uchiha

Elizabeth Bennet: Hinata Hyuuga

Mr. Bingly: Naruto Uzumaki

Jane Bennet: Sakura Haruno

Snippet:

Naruto approached Sasuke with a stupid satisfied grin on his face as he proclaimed, “Man, I’ve never had such a great time in my life!”, Sasuke arched an eyebrow at him and responded, “You’re the only one” Naruto gave him a knowing look and suggested, “You would be too if you mingled more.” Sasuke scoffed and said, “Ino is busy” but Naruto made himself clearer as he reiterated, “Mingle with someone you don’t know. Maybe spar with one or two ladies. There are so many pretty girls here!”

Sasuke maintained his stoic demeanour as he responded harshly, “You sparred with the only worthy opponent here, I will not reduce myself to waste my time taking it easy on a weakling” Naruto shook his head in disapproval then said, “That won’t do, I won’t have you be a grouch when all these people are being so kind and welcoming. Look, over there…” he gestured at Hinata who had been standing close enough to overhear their conversation. Hinata’s heart sank when she realized they had been talking about her.

“That’s Sakura-San’s sister, why don’t you ask her to spar with you?” Naruto continued, “I don’t think so” was Sasuke’s retort, “Why not, she’s just as pretty as Sakura, and perhaps she’s just as strong as well” Sasuke turned to glance at her, with one swift look he had registered that her figure was pleasing and her dress had emphasised her elegance, and for a fleeting moment even considered his idiot friend’s suggestion. However, in that moment Hinata felt his gaze upon her and the intensity of it could be felt as it sent chills down her spine. In a daring response she turned to meet his gaze. When their eyes connected briefly, he had quickly turned away and said, “She’s passable in looks, but nothing there to tempt me. Besides, I hadn’t seen anyone else offer to spar with her, no doubt she’s weak” he decided that Hinata was purposefully being avoided by other men for being too weak to be a worthwhile challenge and asking her would just be a waste of time.

What feelings of respect Hinata once had towards Sasuke Uchiha, had all instantly disappeared upon hearing him slight her as he had.

“You should return to the girl you were with. You’re only wasting your time here with me” Sasuke said so Naruto would stop pestering him and leave him alone to endure the remainder of this tiresome evening.

Hey llama, I was thinking about the p&p servant au, and I was wondering how would mc react to all of the guys attending a party she's serving at? Would it upset her to see Sans being haughty with other humans?

HOHOHOHO... I would assume at this point she's not yet one of Skull's servants. She belongs to someone else, someone who doesn't appreciate her like they do.

Sans: As much as he wants to immediately seek her out and take up all of her time, to talk to only her... he understands that it's a very busy party, and she's working. He steals her for a little bit of polite conversation, but he doesn't trap her- he doesn't want her to get in trouble. He's very kind to her, as he always is... admiring her from afar, catching her in quiet corners whenever he can, and openly scowling at anyone who comments about her. She enjoys finding ways to sneak a few hushed words with him in passing, and she loves the genuine delight on his face when he sees her in the crowd.

Would she be upset by Sans being haughty? No, not at all. Sans is only like that with people of his station or higher, never with servants. For her, there's honestly something really enjoyable about watching Sans be shitty to the kinds of people who are often the cruellest to her. He gets to say and do the things she wishes she could.

Red: She loves when Red shows up. All the staff do. Even before she knew him personally, she enjoyed when he appeared at events- Red is the life of the party, and often ends up causing some kind of scene that becomes talk of the town. Excessive drinking, ruinously beating someone at cards, pitting two idiots against each other until they get into a fight... all the servants knew that if Red was there, it was going to be a delightfully gossip-filled night in the staff quarters. Especially since Red was absolutely the type to woo any of the particularly eye-catching servants.

She likes him even more after meeting him. Because Red is excellent at distracting the other party members- most importantly, he distracts the host, usually immediately after shooting her a wink. Without her employer breathing down her neck she can get some rest in the middle of an otherwise completely action-packed night.

Skull: If Skull showed up to a party, that's a huge win for the host, and a ridiculous amount of social clout for them. So if Skull appears at the house, and expresses any open interest in Mc (which of course he will)... her employer will basically command her to be Lord Skull's personal entertainer for the evening. "Do whatever is necessary to keep our guest happy. Understand?"

If Red is there to third wheel and keep the conversations going, Mc and Skull would both probably actually have a lot of fun. Red knows his friend very well, and he can quickly and easily 'translate' for him to keep her engaged and relaxed. She likes getting to chat and eat, and Skull is just absolutely delighted that she's sat close enough for him to see her eyes.

If, for some reason, Red isn't there... it might be a bit more awkward. Skull will follow her around like an overly affectionate cat, but he gets overcome with shyness the moment she tries to start anything resembling a conversation. She'd still enjoy it, though- sitting with a silent guy who likes to stare still beats working.

Sunday Snippet

Snippet from a little something I've started based on this idea. I don't know if it will ever turn into a proper fic but maybe. (Yes it's another fic where they stayed broken up at the end of S3. Yes I am aware that there's something wrong with me.)

Oliver didn’t seem to care, at any rate. He never gave any indication he had ever heard of Simon prior to their chance meeting at the library and Simon knew better than to ask. He was cute in a dorky kind of way, wore horn-rimmed glasses and an endless array of knitted jumpers. He was a couple of years older than Simon but a bit shy in bed, and Simon couldn’t imagine him ever asking him to “show him how the prince liked it” or acknowledging the existence of a leaked sex tape, which ticked off Simon’s main boyfriend criteria. His mum liked Oliver when Simon brought him home for a weekend, which ticked off another. She hugged Simon and told him Oliver seemed like a lovely young man, and Simon could tell how relieved she was to find out that after all, her son hadn’t been irreparably damaged by something that happened when he was sixteen. Some days Simon could almost convince himself that he believed it too.
