You love Rumbelle? Golden Lace? Woven Beauty? Woven Lace?

You want to express that love in creative form?

You are competetive?

An experienced writer?

Or someone who never wrote fanfics but would love to try, especially for your OTP, with a bonus of complete anonymity helping you overcome the fear of failure or being judged by others?

You find writing 1000-1500 words oneshots the most comfortable / fun / etc?

You usually write long multi-chap things but would love to try writing something shorter?

You don't have the spoons for writing long multi-chap things but are itching to write?

You want to write but don't have a starting point and need some prompts?

Sign up for Rumbelle Showdown 2024*!

Trust me, you won't regret it 😉

Okay, so I have a fic stuck in my brain now that I’m back on my Rumbelle kick, but stick with me:

Season 1 but in more of an American Appalachian/Ozark vibe instead of Maine

Belle is Mayor and Rumple is Weaver (also Regina as Roni because Roni)

Belle absorbed the Dark One power to save Rumple from himself, but his cursed self doesn’t remember any of that (and still thinking he’s the all powerful dark one)

Belle helps Drizella/Ivy cast a Dark Curse so Rumple can find his son and have his happy ending

She keeps Rumple/Weaver at arms length, aka an informant, to keep him from the truth (a la Dark Swan)

Lots of longing and angst

Also CuriousArcher because they deserved more than s7 had to offer

I have a whole Pinterest board dedicated to Appalachian Storybrooke and another one dedicated to plot

One day, I will get my shit together and write.

I must admit that there's a reason I came back here today (two, actually, because I want to gif every single Rush scene 😁) and that reason is a prompt list I accidentally found while logged into my Belle rp blog because I realized most of those prompts could go well with Lizzington, so if anyone wants a ficlet about our favorite couple, just go to the prompt list I just reblogged (of course, you're more than welcome to also scroll through my 'prompt list' tag and choose a prompt from any other list I ever reblogged), pick whatever prompt you like and send it in!

You can also send a prompt for a ficlet about Rumbelle, Golden Lace, Woven Beauty, Woven Lace, Rushbelle, Rush x Chloe (can be platonic) and Nick x Mandy)

while I do like the added dialogue between Sally and Percy in the minotaur scene, namely Sally's speech to Percy telling him to hold fast, I really wish the scene had more of the urgency that it did in the book. Like Grover's heavily injured to the point of incoherency, Sally and Percy literally have to drag him up the hill, and that's when they're overtaken by the minotaur. In the show, having them all come to a grinding standstill and Grover being fully alert like "sorry I know we're being chased by certain death but your mom's human so she can't come :/" was kind of adflksadfjasdf

oh and in the book Percy doesn't immediately pass out. Instead, Percy doesn't let himself until he's hauled Grover over the boundary line and all the way to the big house because he needs help and it's only then does Percy finally collapse. and idk just the imagery of it all -- Percy crying for help, for his mother -- it always stuck with me and I wish they hadn't taken it out.

🥀 Caspian - Beasts of the Briar 🥀

So with the release of Broken by Daylight I just HAD to draw my favourite boy.

This series is my guilty pleasure and one that my book sister and i oceans apart had bonded over. We love love LOVE it!!! I was so jealous that she is an ARC reader. And I did not even know until the other day that the authors follow me on Instagram….I may have freaked out, and cried. 🙈

I plan to draw the rest of the briar crew. It is criminal how little fanart there is of the series 😩

“What is it?” he said.

She only shook her head and said, softly, “You’re so beautiful.”

okay not to be a walking cliche and I hate to validate overused jargon but I kinda had a self-care day today and refilled my cup and it really helped. 😭

OOF, we've started to hit "scenes that have aged like milk with the full context of river's reveal!" the doctor speaking with SUCH condescending certainty that river could never be his equal, could never in the world measure up to him in terms of space-time complexity, when arguably river is That And More...i feel two kinds of ways about this, one very colored by my doctor/river softness, one very colored by my writer brain frustration. i shall start with the first one.

i do think that there exists a way to read this as the doctor continuing to write off river and refuse to admit that she could be A Person to him. he doesn't know her, so he does not know enough to make this call, and to tell her she doesn't know what she's talking about when he Doesn't Know Her is patently absurd. he's been digging himself into defensive anger all of this episode, all while floating around her like a lil satellite, not wanting to admit that he does actually absolutely like her, so i do think he would be off-the-cuff harsh with her in a moment like this! plus of course he has another plan + he is not one to let people sacrifice themselves for him when he can avoid it, so character-wise, this tracks.

but the thing is, river is right! and the fact that the narrative sorta has her put up these garden-variety protestations instead of having her go "you really have no fucking clue what you're talking about" yet again showcases the weakness of shifting all melody pond hints all the way into season six, and making all of these hints so tiny that no casual viewer could conceivably knit them all together! this was a moment that needed a hint, and the fact that it doesn't have one turns it into this brutal and uncomfortable dismissal both upon first watch and rewatch.

first watch, the doctor is flat-out saying "you're not as important as me" to someone he's ostensibly starting a flirtationship with, and he is constantly saying things like this to river -- i'd never trust you, you embarrass me, why did you have to be this, etc. which is just VISCERALLY uncomfortable to sit with when we just do not get nearly enough tenderness between them to counterbalance... all of that! (we get tenderness and flirting and silliness, but none of it really outweighs how awful some of the things he says to her are!)

rewatch, WE KNOW RIVER IS RIGHT. full stop. she is a complicated space time event on a level that gets frankly ridiculous. maybe the doctor's been doing this for longer but i truly don't think (at least in new who, can't speak for classic) that anyone's timeline is as consistently fucked and nonsensical as river's. so when the doctor dismisses her and she just keeps going "but i don't want you to die!!!" that seems wildly inconsistent with river's character (or, at the very least, how the narrative seems to want us to view river) -- she definitely keeps her cards close to her chest, but if the doctor is in danger and she knows that her life will work as well as his, she will Literally Die For Him to preserve the timeline. as has been shown to us in the library. this is a moment where i truly think that a consistently written river would have dug her heels in and brought up, rightly, that he does not know her and does not know enough about her to make that call. (and that in itself would feed so beautifully into the doctor's anger/insecurities around not knowing who she is, and being drawn to her despite that! they could start having another married couple fight in front of the angels! so many things are possible that would make this make more sense!)

i think what i am going to keep coming back to over and over is that we did not get enough time with river to make this story feel consistent and planned. we have the skeleton of a story, but we needed foreshadowing, filler moments, episodes where river is just there kinda fucking around with the crew and establishing a rapport with amy and rory. she is simultaneously incredibly important to the doctor and the ponds and a complete stranger who breezes in here and there, and there's more that could be done with that! maybe with LESS of the doctor being a dick to her. (or, at least, same amount of the doctor being a dick to her, but much more of their loosely sketched s7 dynamic, where it's clear he adores her and always hears her and would give up years of his life just to make her feel a tiny bit better!)

why didn't charlie call claire "luv". why didn't he throw out a casual luv at his friends. he's a northerner what else is he good for

[merlions]

Wow I was trying to guess the definition of this word and was trying to figure it out by using related words, so I was like uhmm really important? A workhorse? Transitional? Full of vital soups and sauces? Full of chyme??? But when I looked it up I discovered none of that is true and it just means boring.

Holds some pretty funny implications into the mind of the guy who was responsible for naming the anatomy of the lower abdominal organ system! "Ah yes I love the 3 segments of the small intestine: the duodenum, the ileum, and uhh idk the boring one"
