So um.... about this terror romcom au, what do you got there mmmmmm? 👀 Spill the deets

Yeeeet! Howdy friend thanks for stopping by!

So i'm gonna preface this with the fact that the idea came out of a 2 hour commute with nothing better to do than daydream and this song here -> https://youtu.be/2F0RLK5hm88 (Spring Fever by Sam Roberts Band) which i felt would be an excellent ending song to a romcom.

I keyed in on the line "i'm leaving home but i hope you know that i'll be back before the snows begin" and out popped the basic premise. James Fitzjames gets stuck in the arctic over the winter, falls in love with Francis Crozier, but when spring comes he has to return to where he came from (but isn't his home anymore) to tie up loose ends, but he promises Francis he'll be back before the next winter.

I built out from there. James is in this little arctic town visiting a friend (i think i settled on Le Vesconte) who is taking care of an ailing elderly relative (Franklin, who dies like 20 mins in cos i didn't wanna deal with him). James came at like the worst time tho, and the weather takes a turn for the worse and he's stuck there for an indeterminate amount of time. And of course the only person who has room to put him up for that long is Francis. Who Hates him. The feeling is mutual (so they think. It's suuuuper obvious to everyone else in town that they're madly in love with each other).

They tolerate each other. Not talking more than necessary. James on the couch and Francis in the bed. All well and good til James gets sick. He gets a real bad case of the flu and between medic Goodsir and one of the docs (probs MacDonald), the only thing for it is for Francis to nurse him back to health. So James gets the bed and Francis the couch, but James doesn't want to be left alone and Francis's back is killing him and the only thing for it is to share the bed (best trope).

Over the course of caring for James, Francis comes to some startling realizations, ie that he really loves him and doesn't want him to go away. But of course this is Francis. He's not gonna admit that under pain of death, not to James. So he keeps up as usual, especially after James's fever breaks.

At that point, James realizes that he, too, is in love. But he's afraid that admiting it would break the fragile peace between them so he carries on as usual as well. Starts talking about going back south. Francis can't stand the thought, but all his feelings get channelled into anger and they fight, a punch is thrown. Francis runs off to clear his head (he goes to talk to Blanky who can maybe knock some sense into him) and James remains, contending with his own racing thoughts and a sore jaw.

And i think you know how this ends. They come back, make up, confess their love, blush like teens. James admits he still has to go back south but he promises to return. Francis promises to hold him to that. They kiss. Yadda yadda. There's more, post movie, and if you wanna hear more about that feel free to drop by again, ask box or dm's. But this is the gist of it. I love this idiots.

Also that got fuckin long, sorry. Idk how to put a readmore in on mobile.

Little/Irving + melody (i'm not too into pairings with little but i do like irving and like you said, there's a lot of unexplored pairings that could be dope)

(little/irving is honestly like one of the only little pairings i like so if you had suggested anything else with him i probably would’ve said no XD)

He somehow never noticed the humming as it happened, and when he did it took him a moment to realize where it was coming from. Irving was usually so quiet when they worked together, so focused on his task.

It was soft, hardly audible above the ships constant creaking and groaning. He realized that was deliberately so.

Little leaned forward on the table and shut his eyes. A gentle hymn in a harsh place. He’d expect nothing else of Irving. Soothing, calming.

For the first time in days, Little smiled.

send me a pairing + prompt

#the terror #fic #edward little #john irving #i have a lil hc that irving likes to hum when he works but #he's a bit embarrassed so he does it very softly #the only time he likes to sing is when he's drunk or alone #batsybutts #asks

Crozier/Goodsir + healing ;)

this ran a bit long but i got struck with an idea last night and i was only coherent enough now to put it together (it ran a bit long but who cares)

Francis wept, thougha year had passed he still wept for what was lost, and when he did the samehands would find purchase on his tired shoulders.

They were bothfilled with so much guilt, so much pain, so much loss, but refused to let theother wallow. There was no use in it, but it could not be helped: when onesuffers so much, it is understandable that they cannot help but think about attimes.

“I’ll make ussome tea,” Harry spoke softly, “and I’ll fetch your drops.” He pressed a gentlekiss to the crown of Francis’ head. “It’s late, too late for us to be lost inour thoughts, don’t you agree?” He doted on his companion kindly and with nomind, it was in Harry’s nature after all.

Francis noddedand placed a shaky hand onto Harry’s before he could leave. He brought thesmaller hand to his mouth, pressing the knuckles to his lips for a moment.

“Aye, I thinkit’s time we turned in for the night.”

send me a pairing + prompt
