I know I am not the only one who dislikes Bonnie's canon relationships, and I wanted to make a space for us that see her as more than what she was given.

Our girl is just as desirable and deserving of a romance as the rest. It's unfair how she's the only one boxed in due to moral policing.

RULES:

Rarepair for this event is a ship with less than 150 completed works, with main focus on the Bonnie ship. (Honestly, this is a casual event, so if you’re doing the bigger Bonnie ships, I'm not gonna stop you, but the focus is on the rarepairs - the rarer, the better.)

Crossovers, polyamory, OCs, LGBTQ+ are all welcome.

I’ll be reblogging folks work until the end of August, so if you’re late, no worries, still bring what you have when you can.

Please tag appropriately, even if that means you’re simply stating you’re not going to tag anything. (This is mainly for fic writers.)

Use #bbrarepairbash2024 so others can find your work. Tag me @/hollowed-hallowed and/or @/bbtvducollection, so I can make sure I reblog your creations. If there’s enough interest, I’ll start a collection on AO3.

Drop me a message or ask if you have any questions. I’ll see you all in July!

A Goodbye...of Sorts

Hello All,

I am sure this won't surprise a lot of you and I am sure it will disappoint quite a few but it is time for me to say goodbye to fanfic. While I appreciate the years of ongoing support and am sad that so many of my stories didn't get to have closure I feel as if I have outgrown them and it has been a feeling I have had for some time now. I have spent a lot of time the last few months talking to a lot of amazing and talented black female/nonbinary authors and I have been inspired but also felt a need to move forward with my own work. It makes no sense to me anymore to not focus wholly and fully on my original writing and my career aspirations. I have let fear hold me back for some time and a lot of ways I have used these stories and in some ways this fandom as a crutch due to fear of rejection and fear that my writing wasn't good enough to create something great on my own and of my own. While I will still be around on tumblr and will keep you all up to date on my personal journey I will no longer be writing fanfiction and will be removing my stories from Fanfic.net and Wattpad by the end of this upcoming week. I hope that these stories have brought you all some escapism and joy these past years. I appreciate and love you all so much! I hope to continue to recieve your support as I move on and move forward!

Femslash February: Batherine | Bonnie Bennett x Katherine Pierce (The Vampire Diaries)

Requested by @hydesjackiespuddinpop

Magic isn't just a candle flickering to life, or some fancy firework-like sparks. It isn't just an object moving on its own from one side of the room to the other, or a book suddenly flipping to the exact right page.

Magic is also a splitting migraine that starts at the base of the skull and then spreads like wildfire, seeping into every crevice and wrinkle of the brain. It's lethargy that deadens limbs and makes even the eyelids too heavy to lift, crushed under the weight of the world only a few hours ago.

It's hot. Literally - it burns as it travels through the veins, right down to the tips of the finger, emanating across every nerve and muscle until the entire body is consumed with the heat of something indescribable and unknowable. It's metallic, like the blood that drips down into the mouth.

But none of that is enough to stop the enchantment of something so bitter; so unpredictably and deliciously dangerous. Those drawn in by the flicker of light in the darkness accept the risk of getting lost in it, consumed momentarily by an irrepressible desire.

Bonnie knows she is on the verge of being lost as she stares back into the dark eyes peering up at her from behind her own arm, fangs lost in her soft flesh. The white-hot flames beneath her skin push and pulse until she is sure she is actually going to catch fire. Magic is oxygen, it is the thing that fills her lungs and is stolen from them almost immediately, and it is the indescribable sensation that ripples through her when Katherine's resolve breaks, becoming too lost in the moment to keep it up any longer. Her eyelids flicker and she laces their fingers together with a soft moan.

Maybe lost is what they both are. Lost to a world that lost interest in them. Maybe magic is finding each other when the world has long-since stopped looking.

The youngest Wetherly sibling did her best not to scare her brother by sneaking up behind him and covering his eyes, her rosy cheek nearly touching his as she spoke softly.

"Guess who?"

[mousemilf]

i love when redditors use a throwaway account and then provide a a bunch of potentially identifying information anyway.

theyre like "throwaway because my friends are redditors and theyd kill me if they found this post. my friends "wenjamin" (24m) and "batherine" (22f) and i all work at a bespoke cheese shop owned by my stepdad, "jamuel" (41m) in a city on the west coast that ends in a vowel. "wenjamin" is 5'6" and bald and "batherine" has just graduated from a small liberal arts college with a degree in sports journalism. they both own bichon frises.

"EDIT: apparently wenjamin found this post and somehow he could tell it was about our situation. if i dont update within the next 12 hours will someone please contact the police."

Bonnie Bennett Fic Recs

In regards to my last post, I thought it would be fruitful to make a post containing my favourite Bonnie Bennett fics I've come across throughout the years. I'm extremely grateful to all fanfiction authors out there and have so much admiration for your extremely selfless, talented and creative souls. As someone who is not the biggest fan of romance but a fiend for very- and I mean VERY- slow, slow-burn fics; my favourite fics are heavily narrative-focused with ships taking a back seat. I also plan to do review-posts for each as some of these have truly encapsulated and impacted me in such a profound way that I HAVE to let the authors know just how phenomenal they are. So without further ado and in no particular order- here are some of my favourite Bonnie Bennett fics of all time; multiple ships, finished & unfinished.

Spitfire by gabrieeella

Klaus seeks Bonnie out for a pleasant little chat concerning the whereabouts of his missing coffin. Friction ensues, however, when Mystic Falls' favorite witch is more of a spitfire than the Original bargained for. Slight language and roarin' UST.

The Second by aslightjump

In which the Gemini Coven does not hold a monopoly on Prison Worlds. Or, 'Everything in Bonnie Bennett's life has gone sideways thus far, so ending up in an Original's hell world probably shouldn't be the surprise it is.' Back in the real world, Kai Parker is learning life lessons he honestly would rather not. 'How to Feel Guilty' is at the top of that list.

a thousand souls crossed over by irishcookie

Bonnie is finally settling into life as the bridge between the living and the dead. That is until Kol Mikaelson shows up and refuses to leave until she does him a favor: give a message to his family in New Orleans. Of course, that is just the beginning. Set in Season 5 with shades of AU, crossover with The Originals. No set pairing at the moment.

Set Fire to Our Bed by LalaRose27

She peered down to the root of him, past the layers of him trying-wanting- to be good, to find all the darkness in his soul hidden under thousands of miles of good intent. When she found this, she smiled and thought, “Yummy.”

The Sound of Silence by rebeldesire

It’s been 3 years since Bonnie Bennett has put the town of Mystic Falls in her rear-view mirror, vowing never to return. A history major at BC by day and a witch-for-hire by night, Bonnie pays the bills by selling the tricks of her trade, though she vows to never again involve herself in the affairs of vampires. But when she receives phone calls from two individuals she never wants to see again, she is thrust unwillingly back into the world she so desperately tried to leave behind. As she races against the clock to uncover the killer bent on raising nothing short of hell, Bonnie must put aside her wants and discover the strength she needs in order to prevent the world from destruction. Along the way, she makes a pact with her sworn enemies to take down the biggest threat to humankind the world has ever seen, or soon the world may ring with the sound of silence. It’s her destiny. It may also be her doom.

Runaways by romeosareveryundependable

Tyler was told Bonnie was dead so why is she partying it up at a New Orleans nightclub? Before Tyler has a chance to investigate, his memories of Bonnie are wiped and the King of the Quarter himself thrusts Tyler into a struggle for the city, a struggle Bonnie is already very much a part of.

Catharsis by Walmart Sadie Kane

Kai was given a second chance—his emotions freed by Luke, he's determined to do right by his Coven, but instead finds himself thrown headfirst into a sea of treacherous politics. Bonnie told him she never wanted to see him again, but fate has a funny way of not giving her a choice. S6 alternate ending

Over and Over Again by nekilarose

AKA: Bonnie Bennett's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day that won't end.

all the devils are here by irishcookie

Both of them are broken but there is something more going on when Bonnie Bennett arrives in New Orleans needing Klaus Mikaelson's help. After a deal is struck, the pair try to work together while dealing with their losses. A Klonnie angst fic set after the series finale of TVD and season 3 of The Originals. COMPLETED.

New Beginnings by shadowcatgirl09

TVD Season 6 AU: After a few too many startling revelations Bonnie is fed up and decides to leave. Enter the little town of Havencrest, a quiet place, perfect for settling down away from everything. Or so it’s thought; Bonnie left the constant chaos that was Mystic Falls only to get mixed up in something much darker.

Young and Beautiful by jam2008

Kol/Bonnie. Bonnie Bennett is dead. Trapped behind the veil, she finds herself aimlessly walking the Other Side. Bonnie stumbles upon bewitched night club Afterlife where departed souls often congregate. To Bonnie's displeasure, one of Afterlife's nightly patrons is none other than sadistic and sharp-tongued Kol Mikaelson. Kennett with a hint of Beremy. Will contain mature content.

stand up in my holy terrain by yeoban

"It is a part of who you are, Bonnie. You are meant to play the game of power." [Bonnie-centric TVD rewrite. Endgame pairing TBD]

Sample by Cinders and Brimstone

I'm offering up a couple of Klonnie oneshots that I had collecting dust on my desktop. They're all set somewhere in the middle of season 3. They fit in at random spots. All rated M, all of them AU. If anyone wants to rip an idea, feel free. Each one is a separate attempt. I was going to delete them but I thought, hey, why not post somebody might be able to make the idea work.

Shades of Pink by jazzywazzy08

When she discovers Bonnie's underlying feelings for her best friend through observation Katherine imitates her in an effort to begin to sway Bonnie to her side of things. However, the ruse is discovered almost immediately though not before a passionate encounter forces Bonnie to face truths about herself that she would rather hide and makes her easy prey to not only Katherine but also Rebekah who has been sent by Klaus to track Katherine down and recruit the last of the Bennett line. When both Elena and Caroline rally around Bonnie in an effort to protect her they realize that they have feelings of their own for the witch that can no longer be denied….

f-ck him to death by thefudge is grumpy

AU. S3. There's only one way to kill the Original Hybrid. Yes, this is exactly what you think it is. Klonnie.

Uneven Ground by irishcookie

Bonnie Bennett is making it hard for Klaus to ever forget her name. A multichaptered fic based around 3x18 and then goes AU from there.

It’s a Bloodsport by Midnightrain6

"Haven't you noticed it yet, darling?" "Noticed what?" "All these strange murders…the victims are all supernatural." And just like that, Bonnie Bennett finds herself plunged into her strangest, most disturbing ordeal yet.

Monsters In The End by nonsensewriter

After being turned into a vampire Bonnie promptly flips her switch. AU from 3x15

The Contract by moonsdoor

AU. Takes place during 3x11. Bonnie knows only Klaus' blood can save Caroline from Tyler's bite. And she goes to any lengths to get it. Bonnie/Klaus.

Family is Power by roxyhoney

After Bonnie closes the veil and takes Grams hand to go to the other side, she mysteriously wakes up in New Orleans.

Taking Me Over Completely by Leah Naberrie

AU from 6x12 end. Luke didn't get there on time. Jo and Kai merged. Jo won. Kai lost. And they all lived happily ever after. The end. ... Right?... Right? (Starring bi!Bonnie, Bonjo... Bonkai... and Baroline if you squint, Gemini coven mythlore, and the usual Mystic Falls riffraff).

Spine by foxes

Klaus claims Bonnie as she's the only person left who can kill him. He seeks to destroy the remains of the White Oak tree with Bonnie by his side. Bonnie plots to kill him in the midst of the search, both rivaling with newly-bloomed, foreign feelings.

Rebirth by irishcookie

When she left Mystic Falls, Bonnie left behind everything that made her a witch. Now living what she considers a normal life with her husband and two children, she is thrown when Klaus Mikaelson quite literally shows up on her doorstep. She is forced to try and balance the two different facets of her life while Klaus gleefully watches. A series of AU drabbles set post TVD.

beyond the barricade by tjmraso

When a witch is turned into a vampire, they lose their magic. Some lose the will to live, some turn to killing, trying to replace the rush of power they used to feel on a daily basis. And some, like Bonnie Bennett, search for ways to get it back. A rumor about a woman in Russia, who's able to help someone in her position, has lit a fire in Bonnie's heart, and to get there, she's employed the most unappreciated, arguably the craziest and definitely the most bored Original vampire to protect her during her travels.

Burn by my_cache_reserve

Bonnie Bennett returns from the Prison World and craves destruction, starting with the insufferable Kai Parker.

Dancing With The Devil by flippinada

Post Season 2 finale. Bonnie unwillingly joins Klaus and Stefan's road trip. Caroline, Damon and Elena go after them.

Rock and Roll Problems by impertinence

Caroline gets turned into a werewolf. Then things really go to hell.

It’s always hilarious when hearing antis going all “they barely interact “, “they hate each other”, “they’re just friends”, etc. when it comes to people shipping a non canon ship when it like…we know. Like there’s something called imagination in this world. You should maybe try it sometime lol.

[jazzywazzy89]

Funnily enough Shades of Pink was on of the stories i re-read and i never thought Bonnie/Katherine would be a ship I would like but ngl I was fully invested. Can’t wait to ready the updates and new fics. Thanks you for your writing

Well I'm glad to be your intro to Batherine. I honestly have always loved the idea but wasn't so much of a Bonlena shipper until I started writing Shades of Pink. Though I have always maintained that the only way Bonnie doing everything she did for Elena after everything she went through made sense was if Bonnie was in love with her. 😂 Anyway I hope you enjoy the stuff coming up and thanks again for reading!

[cancerian-woman]

we need a Bonnie femslash week. Has there been one?
