For Your Consideration
2023 year was my first year in the fandom (well, technically 2022 was my first year in the fandom and the year I made my Belle rp blog, but in terms of actually contributing something to the fandom 2023 was my first year).
I started it off with great ambitions regarding writing and gifing and editing. I ended up posting only a handful of gifsets, three ficlets, two of which I wrote for Rumbelle Showdown (shoutout to @jackabelle73 for hosting this wonderful event last year, by the way), and 0 fanvids/edits. I'm not particularly proud of it, and I really, really wanna make much more content this year. We'll see how it goes 😅
Anyway, I still decided to give participating in @the-chipped-cup-awards a try. It looked fun last year, when I was only a bystander.
So, without further rambling, I offer to your consideration what little I wrote and made in the year 2023.
Fanfics
Premonition - a ficlet written for the 1st Round of Rumbelle Showdown 2023, for the prompts ""; EF!Rumbelle hurt/comfort
Belle and Rumple are slowly growing closer as they spend evenings in each other's company in the Dark Castle.
Then, when one day Rumplestiltskin is called away for a deal in the middle of their conversation and doesn't return for an hour, Belle begins to worry.
Possible nominations: Best Comfort, Best One-Shot, Best Short Fic, Best Dark Castle, Best Drama, Best Trope (sickfic), Best English Language, Best Belle, Best Dark One Rumple
His ray of light - a ficlet written for the 2nd Round of Rumbelle Showdown 2023, for the prompts ""; human AU, major character injury, possible MCD
Alan Gold is in a happy, healthy relationship for the first time in what might be his whole life.
But when one day a figure from his past unexpectedly shows up at his beloved's doorstep, it might mean the end not only of his happiness, but life itself.
Possible nominations: Best Death, Best Hurts So Good, Best One Shot, Best Short Fic, Best Storybrooke, Best Drama, Best AU - Original, Best English Language, Best Mr Gold
Sacred promise - originally written as a starter for my rp partner, I also decided to post it as a ficlet; season 6 fix-it without all the breakup bullsh*t
Belle's and Rumple's baby boy has kicked for the first time.
Rumple has major feelings about it.
Possible nominations: Best Family, Best Fix-it, Best One Shot, Best Short Fic, Best Storybrooke, Best AU – Based on Once Upon A Time, Best Trope (kiss to the baby bump), Best English Language, Best Mr Gold
Gifsets
this "happy ending at the end of realms" set
Possible nominations: Best Fan Art, Best Graphic Art, Best Fluff Art, Best Use of Color
this "in my memory, it doesn't end..." set
Possible nominations: Best Fan Art, Best Graphic Set, Best Angsty Art, Best Fluffy Art
this silly little Woven Beauty set
Possible nominations: Best Fan Art, Best Graphic Set, Best AU in Art

RumbelleTEAs.com Update
Hey rumbelle fam,
Just putting it out there that the site will be down for probably the foreseeable future?
This is for two (and a half?) reasons:
1) It was built on a tech stack that is now pretty outdated, and it seems the queries that actually make the site work are no longer returning the data they need to. So... I would need to do some poking around under the hood to see what exactly is causing the problem and time has become a pretty scarce resource for me lately
2) Uh... Hosting is getting quite expensive 🥲 I've been hosting the site on the same webspace I host my professional portfolio site on, so it hadn't been an issue, but my portfolio site is also in need of a massive redesign/rebuild that I won't be getting to any time soon, so it's really not worth paying what it costs to keep the lights on there either, especially given I'm not actively looking for work atm (bc I'm currently working full-time at a pretty great company 😊)
2.5) The amount of fanworks we create has sadly calmed down a LOT since the show ended, so there doesn't seem to be as much of a need for the site as there was 2-3 years ago? (As much as I would love to keep it up for posterity or whatever)
That being said, I am looking into other tech stacks and less costly hosting solutions, and the ideal outcome is that I'll be able to migrate everything and have it back up in a month or two. But like I said, time is precious and I can't guarantee anything
Thanks to everyone who helped make this fandom a real community for so many years, who organized (and in some cases continue to organize) all our fun events, and helped manage the site with me! Y'all are the best, and I sincerely hope to have things back up soon! 🤗💕

Okay, Anon. I’m posting this on my main, rather than on the @the-chipped-cup-awards page, because this is my personal take on the issue, and not necessarily the opinion of the mod group as a whole.
The purpose of the Chipped Cup Awards (and before that, the Espenson Awards) is to celebrate all aspects of the Rumbelle fandom. All of the categories on this form have been part of this event since long before I joined the fandom. I don’t think it’s any one person’s place - mine OR yours - to decide for the entire fandom whether a category is “acceptable.” If enough people come forward - not on anon, so we can verify that there are multiple people who feel this way - then we’ll take this under consideration. That being said, Rumbelle poly ships still celebrate the dynamic between Belle and Rumpelstiltskin, and many people enjoy putting the Swanfire family into Rumbelle fics, so it’s my personal opinion that both categories should stay (but I invite other Rumbellers to weigh in).
What really concerns me is your incredibly judgmental tone. Gross? Sick? I think you might be in the wrong fandom, Anon. I’ve read smutty fic where Belle is a centaur, or Rumpelstiltskin is a drider. I’ve read age gap fic where Belle is underage and Gold is her boss or her teacher. I myself have a WIP where Belle and Gold are cursed to think they’re father and daughter (and while the smut hasn’t happened yet, believe me when I say it’s coming). This is and always has been a very open-minded fandom, so it disturbs me to see ship-shaming like this.
It’s well-known that the Once Upon a Time family tree is a tumbleweed. Swan Queen is a ship between an older woman and her step-granddaughter. Even Captain Swan - a canon ship! - is between a man and his late stepson’s ex girlfriend/baby momma. Golden Queen and Wicked Gold are both ships between a man and his ex lover’s daughters - both of whom were groomed by said man. If you’re looking for a fandom that’s concerned with moral purity in its ships, you’re very much looking in the wrong place.
I invite you to examine why you feel like it’s your place to cast judgment on members of your fandom when you don’t hold the show’s very writers to the same standards.

Return of The Monday Menu
Tumblr media
Here we are, almost February, and already 2023 has been kicking my behind. My intention is now to kick back, because, friends, I miss writing, and I miss being able to engage with readers when they comment or send me DMs or asks or... just plain contact me in any way.  Rumbelle IS a community after all!
Speaking of communities - if you haven’t already, dear fellow Rumbellers, show your support for your writers and artist who bring you fics and pics and gifs etc and go and cast your ballot in the inaugural Chipped Cup Awards.
For those of you that are new to the fandom, or have been hibernating (and who could blame anyone for that given the state of the world) the past couple of years, last year the Admin for the TEAs (The Espenson Awards) decided it would be the last year.  Not wanting such an important part of the Rumbelle community to disappear, a group of brave souls got together to keep the event going under the new name of the Chipped Cup Awards. 
The ballot form for this year’s awards is here.
Hopefully I will be able to find time to get some writing done this week, and here’s the plan for what this week might look like:
Monday - The Monday Menu - what it says on the box. A plan for the week.
Tuesday - TMI Tuesday. - Ask me… go on, anything.  Ask my characters -they’ll answer. Nothing is off limits, but be sure you want the answer before you ask the question.
Wednesday - WIP Wednesday - Current state of my works in progress. So many - and still climbing!
Thursday - Three Things Thursday - any fic of mine is fair game. Doesn’t have to be Rumbelle, I have Rushbelle, a bunch of crossovers, some shows people might no know, some ST: DSC, some SGA and some Tolkien too… ask three things, I dare ya…! Please… This is also the day I’ll do the ‘Behind the Scenes’ post, which might just end up as part of the TTT post.
Friday - Final Line Friday. - Assuming I manage to write anything, I will post a word cloud, and the last line that I have written right before I post this.
Saturday - Saturday Secret - another one of those where you can ask about any fic, and I’ll tell (or show) you a secret. Feel free to follow up with conversation or guesses.  I will tell you if you get something right. Again, no one took me up on the offer… so we might also have to think of another ‘SA’ post.
Sunday - Seven Sentence Sunday. - yeah, I have to write something to be able to post this.
Tumblr media
Writing this week - Still Waters
As always my inbox is open for thoughts, questions, asks… I don’t restrict people to any particular day of the week, and I - like most fic authors - love to discuss things to do with fics and fandom.
I just want to add a shout out to those readers who have left me comments and kudos these last several days.  It has not gone un-noticed.  love you guys for those votes of confidence..
Talk to me, peeps! My inbox is lonely,

S4. Ep19. New Moon Rising 
“New Moon Rising” is a fitting title, not only because of the importance of the moon in both werewolf and witch lore, but also through its symbolism for endings and new beginnings. Writer Marti Noxon has stated that the episode is the final part of the “Willow/Oz Trilogy,” which consists of “Phases,” “Wild at Heart,” and then finally, “New Moon Rising.” 
Nominated for the Hollywood Makeup Artist and Hair Stylist Guild Awards in the category “Best Special Makeup Effects in a Series,” the New York Daily news referred to this as a landmark in TV history because of the implied kiss between Willow and Tara at the end.  
After this episode aired, a group of internet board posters sent show creator Joss Whedon an engraved toaster to thank him for the story-line. This was a reference to the "coming-out" show of Ellen (1994), (a show on which longtime Buffy writer Jane Espenson had also worked) in which there had been a running joke about the LGBT movement awarding every newly out person a toaster for "joining." 
While “New Moon Rising” is significantly better than the previous two episodes, its message, metaphor, and even characterization are hindered due to season 4’s crappy writing and horrible pacing. Riley’s conflict is a rehashing of “Goodbye Iowa,” Colonel McNamara is a one-dimensional antagonist that was only necessary because the writers stupidly wrote off Maggie Walsh, Oz feels inconsistent, thanks to “Wild at Heart,” and Adam and the Initiative continue to be pointless.  
Yet, despite all this, where the episode truly shines is through dialogue and acting. Willow and Oz’s heart-warming goodbye, Willow’s choosing of Tara, Willow’s coming out to Buffy, and even Buffy finally communicating her past to Riley—each moment is handled with so much feeling and care that we are able to look past the inconsistencies and fully immerse ourselves in the lives of these characters.

*Checks archive* It started in 2014, the same year as the Espenson Awards, but was inactive for a year due to a change in admin, so Idk how you want to count that. I guess this will be the ninth active year, but it was started ten years ago.
Well, it's that time of year again. What time of year, you say? Oh, hello there, Rumbelle newbies, I see you there, busily working away on filling out the ballot for the Chipped Cup Awards and flailing happily if some of your fics were nominated. Congratulations, and good, you should be in the right mood.
This is a fairy tale fandom, so let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, in the early times of the fandom, some of the Rumbelle writers looked at each other and said "Let's make all the Rumbellers cry". This challenge was taken up, and the Rumbelle War commenced, in which works of great angst and darkness were written. Readers cried and cursed the writers, who cackled evilly as they collected the broken hearts which were flung at their feet, and tucked them away in boxes and bags and old wooden card catalog drawers (because Rumbellers are big on libraries).
But because there must be light to balance the darkness, a new event was created -- FLUFFAPALOOZA.
Tumblr media
Fluffapalooza is when you write and draw and gif the fluffiest fics/art/scenes you can think of. Haven't got the time or spoons to do any of that but you've got ideas? Post them as prompts, or headcanons! Or if you want a challenge, make a post announcing that you want to play "Fluffify this!" and invite people to send you angsty-sounding prompts in the form of sentence starters, which you will then sneer at and say "Not today! Today is for fluff!" and write a little prompt fill in which you turn that prompt into something fluffy. (See an example here.) Or maybe you just want to rhapsodise about Rumbelle and talk about their chemistry, or what the ship means to you and how it affected your life. Maybe you want to reminisce about how we started adding silly Rumbelle captions to every picture of a croc or gator or lizard that crossed our dashes. Anything goes! Tag everything with #fluffapalooza if you want it reblogged here!
Oh boy, you're saying (I hope), it sounds like fun! When is it? FLUFFAPALOOZA IS FEBRUARY 12, AKA SKIN DEEP DAY, THE ELEVENTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FOUNDING OF OUR SHIP. THIS IS OUR HIGH HOLY DAY, GUYS, LET'S KEEP THE LOVE FLOWING AND CELEBRATE IT RIGHT.
Tumblr media
(Oh yeah, and I believe it was in that contract you had to sign when you entered the fandom (you DID sign that scroll of parchment you were sent, yes?) that you have to reblog Love Is Purple and Love Is Still Purple at least once a year as part of the Anniversary Rites.)

Kelyon’s For Your Consideration
Hello, Rumbellers!
TEA Time is fast approaching, and I would like to throw my hat into the ring. In order of recency, my fics are:
Begging On His Bended Knees My RSS fic. Gold goes to a dominatrix, who just so happens to be the tenant he’s had a crush on for months. This fic could be nominated for Best BDSM or Best Woobie!Rum
Presents My Rumbelle Christmas in July fic. After Belle walks in on the Dark One in a compromising position, he begins to treat her differently. This could be nominated for Best Kink, Best Dark Castle, or even Best RCIJ 
Her Angel When Lady Belle runs away from her wedding, she is helped by a poor spinner and his son. This fic could be nominated for Best Spinner Rum or Best First Meeting.
Trio: A Golden Cuffs Story Rumpelstiltskin invites his former lover Jefferson over to share his new plaything--Belle. This could be nominated for Best Threesome or Best Kink
Thank you all and happy nominating!

For Your Consideration
Sigh. Having spent ages going back and forth on whether I should bother making on of these. I went for the worst option: making one at the last minute.
Every year I hope I’ll have made enough progress publishing my WIPs to suggest nominating them. Alas, yet again I have been thwarted by my health and life. But, despite being in a state of constant migraine for multiple months (this barely being able to use a screen), I did manage to write some fluff pieces I liked. I’m also including some past fics of mine that are eligible too.
Amends: Dark Castle fluff written for Fluffapalooza 2021. Rumple has noticed something up with Belle's behaviour over the past few days, and is concerned one morning when he smells blood on her. Belle is upset by his nosiness and he has to work out how to make things right with her. Possible Categories: Best Fluffapalooza, Best Argument (Fluff)
Family Photos: This was my second Fluffapalooza piece. It’s a ficlet set in the same ’verse as “Unlovely Thoughts” but far in the future when everything’s resolved and Rumbelle, Gideon, Henry and Neal go out for ice cream. Possible Categories: Best Fluffapalooza, Best Drabble*
*Technically speaking not a true dabble but it’s a similar length to multiple past winners.
Distractions: More Dark Castle Fluff. Rumplestiltskin finds his maid very distracting -- only because of her antics though, not for any other reason. Possible Categories: Best Comedy, Best Dark Castle
An Unconventional Gift: Yet more Dark Castle fluff (do you get a sense of what I like to write?). Rumplestiltskin brings a baby back to the Dark Castle. Possible Categories: Best Dark Castle, Best One-Shot, Best Family
A Christmas Present for Mama: After giving birth to their second child Belle loses her memories. But it's Christmastime and Gideon doesn't want her to miss out on her present so father and son pay a visit to her in hospital. Possible Categories: Best Gideon, Best Child Fic
A Moment’s Peace and Quiet: Belle and Rumplestiltskin relax after a long day and discuss their family. Possible Category: Best Family
Thanks for your consideration! I know some of my fics don’t fit into the categories that well so if you think any of them fit into a different category that’s better you are welcome to nominate in that category instead/ as well.

For Your Consideration
Heey, there! I'm relatively new here on fic writing and for the past year I have been working on historical AU's for Rumbelle. So if you are looking for historical alternative universes: here is the place!
For your consideration Best Historical AU, Best Drama:
Pompeii: Burn For You
Tumblr media
( artwork by @argoslight)
Rumple is a Pict living with his son in the North of Britain. When his village is raided by the Roman army , he is captured and ends up in the world of slavery and gladiators.
Belle is the daughter of the governor of Pompeii, Campania Felix, Mauricius Nerva. She is 19 and way past her marriage age. When she returns from her travels to Rome, her father announces his choice of husband.
In the midst of it all, they meet. And then the mountain growls.
--
This story isn't finished, but isn't by a long shot abandoned! I'm working on the next chapters. This fic contains : slavery, gladiators, Roman way of life, bathhouses, and of course something I can't escape, a volcano!
2. Ad Lucem
Tumblr media
Remus Aurelius Nox is a rich man from an important Roman family. He lives in Iberia where he is governor of the capital of the province. When he is in Rome to finish some business, he sees something he can't turn away from.
Remix of Pompeii: Burn for You, with the roles reversed and a different setting. Still a Roman setting and still master-slave dynamics. Warning: has some non-con in it, but will become very consensual in the future.
For consideration Best Historical AU or Best Drama
This is also the first smut I have ever written. Not sure what category it fits in.
Thank you for reading, all!

For Your Consideration
It’s that time again. I know I didn’t post consistently in December, but thank you everyone who kept reading and leaving comments! I hope you’ll consider nominating some of them. If you do, here are my suggestions for fics that are eligible this year, for your consideration:
One of the Others - Best Supernatural and Best AU Belle An isolated Gold and Belle struggle to connect with people, until they find each other. It probably helps that they’re both undead.
Whisky Glasses - Best Golden Lace and Best Lacey Neal invites Lacey to stay at his dad’s house whilst her apartment’s flooded. You can guess what happens next. [Prequel to Lipstick Kisses]
Dearly Departed - Best Historical AU and Best Horror Late Georgian AU for October, with body snatchers and their cadavers coming back to life. Sort of.
The Cunning - Best Creature AU and Best Unexpected Twist People keep going missing in the woods, and Belle suspects Gold knows why.
Lace Roses - Best Smut: B/D//S/M and Best AU!OUAT AU where Rumple falls over the town line instead of Belle, and leaves Gold to discover the truth about his relationship with French’s daughter. (I’m censoring the category so tumblr doesn’t block it.)
A Faint Reflection - Best Dark Castle and Best Wish!Rumple. The reunion Wish!Belle and Wish!Rumple deserved, with a mixture of fluff, angst, and misunderstandings.
The Best Offer - Best Movie AU and Best AU Gold. Written for 2020's RCIJ, inspired by the film of the same name. An esteemed auctioneer meets an elusive and enigmatic young heiress.
I’d also really appreciate it if you considered me for Best Author. I hope everyone had a good New Year, and Happy TEAs! 🖤

Nominations are a go!
The time is now! The first annual Chipped Cup Awards begins today!
As those of you who have participated in past TEAs events know, this is an event that allows the Rumbelle fandom to appreciate creators for the fics, art, and other fandom works they’ve come out with over the course of the year.
This year, instead of asking you to submit a list to our page, we’ve made a Google form you can fill out with all of your nominations. You can nominate as many fics, art, and artists as you like - the more, the merrier! A quick reminder: if a work has won any TEAs awards in the past, it is ineligible for nomination for future ceremonies going forward. But if it was created before 2022 and still has not won, it can still be nominated this year.
If you have any questions, please feel free to send us an ask and we’ll be happy to respond!
Now that that’s out of the way, here’s the link to the nomination form:
Remember, nominations are live until January 23rd. After that, the voting begins!

For Your Consideration, Part 1
This year all of my work aside from the secret gifting events was centered around A Monthly Rumbelling, which put out 5 fics a month for 12 months in a row. As I wrote this series I had a plan: to create a Choose Your Own Adventure series using the individual stand alone works from that 60 fic library. So far I have created two fics in the Rumbelle Me A Story series, but there are several more to come.
I would be honored if any of my writing was to be nominated, but my pride and joy for the year is the Rumbelle Me A Story series and in that series, the fic titled Those We Leave Behind. I would be grateful if readers would consider them for a TEA award this year.
This post includes noms for Best Series, Best Rumbelle Fic, Best One Shot, the fics for Best Events. and a Best Monthly Rumbelling fics list for smut and non-smut. Another post will follow with the rest.
Tumblr media
Best Series - Rumbelle Me A Story
Summary: Welcome to your very own telling of the Rumbelle story. This Choose Your Own type series takes all of my Monthly Rumbelling fics and glues them together in such a way that your reading experience is different every time. I am writing a "spine" fic where the others all fit into place and hope to include a wide range of ideas by the series end. Don't see the one you're looking for? Prompt me. I might find a way to include your idea.
Tumblr media
Best Rumbelle Fic - Beauty and the Beast
Summary: A retelling of Belle and Rumple's story from beginning to end using Monthly Rumbelling fics, written so that you get to decide what part of the story comes next.
Best Rumbelle Fic - Those We Leave Behind
Summary: Regina finds one of Henry's storybooks after he leaves from a visit with his family. She thinks it is empty, but when she opens it she discovers a whole collection of stories about Belle and Rumple. The book tells of their lives together and she spends the day reading parts of it. Will she get to finish or will she be interrupted and what will she decide is the best place for such a collection of memories?
* * *
Behind this cut you will find a few more nomination suggestions.
Thank you for considering any of them.
Tumblr media
Best One Shot - A Monthly Rumbelling
Summary: A collection of one-shots using the Monthly Rumbelling prompts on tumblr for the entire year of 2021. These short fics are also a part of the Rumbelle Me A Story series, making up the chapters of Belle and Rumple's lives that tell their story in various ways.
If you found one of these fics memorable, please nominate it for best One Shot.
I am particularly fond of Storm, Ingredients, Marble, Logs, Piercing, Carousel, Ritual, Wax, and Memory, but Steps, Stacks, Stroll, Shop, Delivery, and Sunshine were popular with readers as well.
Tumblr media
Best Monthly Rumbelling (Non Smut)
Here you will find a list of all of my non-smut Monthly Rumbelling one shots. Please consider any of these which you found memorable to be included in your nominations.
Tea, Choices, Fatherhood, Bouquet, Calm, Healing, Hunters, Museum, Game, Delivery, Waiting, Storm, Sent, Received, Illness, Breakfast, Garden, Ritual, Ruin, Visitor, Fire, Dressing, Overnight, Road, Field, Carousel, Lunch, Wilderness, Fantasy, Steps, Ingredients, Falls, Logs, Blankets, Piercing, Bed, Balloon, Frost, Mobile, Maid, Meal, Marble, Depths, Spy, Blast 
Tumblr media
Best Monthly Rumbelling (Smut)
Sunshine, Morning, Gift, Journey, Shop, Stroll, Stacks, Evening, Home, Recovery, Teeth, Wax, Memory, Wild, Accidents
Tumblr media
Rumbelle Events
Rumbelle Gift Swap - War In Pieces
Summary: After Belle's recovery from the incident with Hook and the car at the town line, the people of Storybrooke have rallied behind her to help test her memories. Brought on by an idea from Mary Margaret, her friends break off into two teams, one captained by Belle, the other by a rather reluctant Gold. The groups race each other to points around town just for the fun of it, but Belle starts up a little bet with Gold on the side. Whoever wins is going to get something very special.
Rumbelle Secret Santa - The Oldest Door
Summary:  Belle has been taken to the Dark Castle as Rumplestiltskin's maid but the Dark One has plans for her beyond simple servitude, all revolving around texts hidden behind the castle's most mysterious door. Older than all the rest and out of place, it is the only door Belle is not allowed to use. As the winter passes both the rules and Rumple's plans begin to change. Can the promises made at the door's threshold survive in a land without magic or will they be forever changed with the curse that approaches?
