Five Things You Might Find in My Fics

Tagged by @garglyswoof to list five things you typically find in my works.

1.) Dicks If you find any of my fics lacking in dicks, please lodge a formal complaint. I strive to provide the most dicks. If Shakespeare resurrected, I would want him to read my writing and be blown away by all the dicks.

2.) Bitchy Social Commentary A lot of things piss me off, and I use gay fanfiction to vent my ire. If you like dicks and social commentary, this is the place to be. 

3.) History Do you want to learn about medieval siege warfare? Weird medieval medical treatments? How about your gay porn being constantly interrupted by little details about daily medieval life? I have a massive boner for history, and I like to wave it around in people’s faces while they’re just trying to read some porn in peace.

4.) Landscape Descriptions I am a cheap whore for these, actually. I love nature writing, and I love inflicting it on readers.

5.) Bar Fights This is so I can vicariously live out my dreams of hitting someone over the head with a barstool without going to prison. I put on some Dropkick Murphys and just let my characters start headbutting people.

Tagging: @kirythestitchwitch @thetourguidebarbie @bellemorte180 Uhh...I am trying to think of people off the top of my head that have multiple fics, but I just clocked off work like twenty minutes ago and am a bit braindead. So if you want to do this, please do this.

I would tag @aemelia as well, but she only has the one fic. Boo, you whore.

[purplesigebert]

@bellemorte180 it's only because I love you and your writing!

Dear plot bunnies,

Could you stop multiplying just for a little bit? I already have 12 documents open (not an exaggeration) and I'm already unable to finish any of them.

this was inspired by Mercy by @bellemorte180

[morningstargirl666]

what are your top ten favorite klaroline fics?

Ooooo let me think... in no particular order:

The Lost Prince & The Eternal Queen by @3tinkgemini /3tingemini

Oh this is a beloved favourite. Caroline's a werewolf alpha and Klaus, fresh from breaking his curse, searches her pack out to turn them into hybrids. Instead of forces them to turn, Caroline makes a deal with him, teaching him what it means to be who they are, offering him a place in her pack and if by a certain amount of time her pack want to become hybrids, he may turn as many as he wishes. It's got some great lore and delves nicely into Klaus' werewolf side. I adore it.

The Stubborn Grace of Being Loved Regardless by @helpless-in-sleep / perfectpro

Also an all-time favourite, this fic is beautiful. Caroline isn't turned into a vampire and when Klaus rolls into town, she's still human. That doesn't deter his affections. AND DID I MENTION YOU GET TO SEE HIM IN WOLF FORM? NO? WELL YOU DO AND I AM STILL NOT OVER IT 😭😭😭

Wisteria by @little-miss-sunny-daisy / sunnydaisy

Caroline meets Klaus before he comes to Mystic Falls, without realising he is in fact, The Klaus, The Original Hybrid. A beautiful love story unfolds that leaves you all soft and gooey inside.

The Howling by @bellemorte180 / BelleMorte180

I LOVE the idea of this two-shot. It's a werewolf mate au - wherein both Klaus and Caroline are werewolves. There's also ✨Damon murder✨ Need I say more?

From The Eastern Mountains by @cupcakemolotov / Cupcakemolotov

Read this not too long ago actually and kicked myself for not finding it sooner. In between grieving her mother, travelling and finding her own place in the world, Caroline keeps bumping into Klaus. The scene at the market haS changed me on a fundamental level, i even don't know why that scene's the most vivid for me but it is. There's just something so mundane about it. AND HELL YES WE GET KLAUS IN WOLF FORM!!! Go forth and read.

Their Nightly Ritual by bellamywinchester

A fic from my ffnet days, this has got to be a contender for my favourite kc fic of all time. Again, there's just something so mundane about it, even with all the supernatural shenanigans - I guess I have a type? I NEED THE DOMESTICITY OKAY? Caroline and Klaus exchange phone calls while she's in college, diverging from season 5 canon.

Blood and A Quick Murder (and isn't that how it always is?) by @ks-caster / KS_Caster

A beautiful character study on how Caroline will always come first in Klaus' books. It explores a really unique idea I've never seen before, and if you like this one-shot you should definitely check out ks-caster's Red Queen series too, which diverges from canon at season 4.

Till I Tasted You by @kirythestitchwitch / KiryTheStitchWitch

GOD this fic is a favourite because never have I ever been ruined so severely by one line of dialogue: “As if I could be jealous of a boy who has no concept of what it is like to touch the sun and then spend a millennium looking for daylight in every strangers’ face.” YOU SEE??? HOW WILL I FIND LOVE NOW THIS IS MY STANDARD???

[muffled screaming]

Wicked Schemes by willowaus

This one is probably on every klaroline rec list, but eh, I don't care. It's a good classic. I love that its set in New Orleans and Caroline gets her own powers. It also has Klaus in wolf form and any fic that has that instantly earns my seal of approval, as you should know by now.

the fate makes for a lousy poet by @stars-and-darkness / for_darkness_shows_the_stars

I binged this in a morning and after I finished it I was left shell shocked, in that high state after a fic has completely changed you on a spiritual level where you don't know how to move on with your life. I just remember lying atop my bed and staring at the ceiling like??? What do I do now??? What was I doing before I read this??? Fuck if I know. It's an amazing fic, canon divergent from season 3, a tattoo soulmate au with brilliant appearances from Kol, Elijah and Rebekah as well. And hey, in my shell shock after reading it I left an essay-length comment on the fic and now I'm best mates with the author. Our tastes literally align so perfectly it's like we share the same brain cell, so I could probably make a top ten klaroline fic list out of Ella's fics alone - every fic of hers takes all my hopes and dreams and weaves them into art. So check her stuff out, and not just the popular ones either (she's also got an amnesia au in the works which has me FERAL so come help me pester her to finish it)

Four Fictional Crushes

Tagged by @purplesigebert. Thank you, friend 💜

I sense a pattern with my TV crushes. - They are completely insane about their romantic partners, looking at them like the sun shines out of their eyes, would crawl through hell fire for them. But they also challenge them in several ways. - None of them are perfect little human beings. They all have flaws (some of them more than others lol) and questionable attitudes. - They're all dead 🥲

Will Gardner (The Good Wife)

I never cried so much in my life as when Will died. I was depressed for a month.

2. Peter Quinn (Homeland)

I will take up arms for Peter Quinn. He is one of the best love interests ever written (on top of being an all-around fantastic character) and I will never be ok with how the show treated him.

3. Klaus Mikaelson (The Vampire Diaries)

I rest my case.

4. Ianto Jones (Torchwood)

He's just a perfect mentally ill cinnamon roll.

So hey, gauging interest. Bellemorte180 doesnt have the bandwidth to do the Klaroline Autumn Exchange this year (sorry folks) but i was thinking about putting up a winter exchange that would run writing time Nov-Dec and reveal in Jan. Please feel free to weigh in!

FIC REC FRIDAY!!!

week #33

Wanderlust by BelleMorte180 (@bellemorte180)

FBI Special Agent, Niklaus Mikaelson is sent to the small town of Mystic Falls, Virginia to investigate a series of murders. When a serial killer’s most recent victim, Caroline Forbes, saves herself from a horrible fate, Klaus cannot help but begin to feel drawn to her. However, it seems that he is not the only one.

when i first read this fic, i left comments on every chapter trying to solve the murder mystery whodunnit alongside klaus … and failed miserably, embarrassingly, and spectacularly. for the cheap price of clicking on this link, you too can annoy erica with your useless predictions. alas. we can’t all be as clever as she is.

The Vampire Diaries Rec

I have a couple of TVD recs, with different ships and tropes. But I realize I never made a general TVD rec, so here it is! This rec has a wide variety of pairings, from popular ones like Klaroline, to Elejah, to Klena. So there should be something for everyone. I hope you enjoy!

All This Time

By: AnglcDmn1986

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8801040/1/All-This-Time

Summary: While cleaning up after a mess Matt and Jeremy made, Elena discovers a secret compartment under the couch. Thanks to a Gilbert device, she’s now back in the 1860’s -- Wait what?

My Comments: The summary did make me a little apprehensive to read it, but holy crap am I glad I did. This fic has everything you could want from a fic like this!! I really love how Angl painted the 1860s, making it into something magical. Also I loved how she shows Damon in the 1860s and how he’s changed over the years. And Stefan and Katherine's romance is just absolutely delightful! I highly recommend giving this one a read!! Also I wasn’t able to subtract the author’s notes from the word count, so it may be a bit different.

The Girls Born Wrong

By: turningofflights

Summary: Everyone is born with a soulmate. Whatever is written in ink on one is written on the other. While everyone around them talks to their soulmate innocently from childhood, Bonnie, Elena, and Caroline are forbidden from talking to theirs. Why?

My Comments: So this fic is broken into three parts, each one focusing on a different girl. I have to say that I really enjoy this fic, everyone knows that I’m a sucker for the soulmate trope. I definitely recommend this one, the Klaroline one is magnificent.

Summary: Caroline and Klaus wake up human in another reality due to a spell. One in which they're married, which is absolutely the worst, until it isn't.

My Comments: I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by how good this fic was. It's really compelling and the world it's set in is absolutely adorable.

If I Die Before I Wake

By: BelleMorte180

https://archiveofourown.org/works/16428545

Summary: In 1864 a curse was placed on Klaus's wife, Caroline, putting her in eternal slumber. Luckily the key to breaking the curse lies right in Mystic Falls.

My Comments: The summary above I wrote myself, since the author's original summary is pretty vague. But I have to say that this is one of my favorite fics. Belle is one of my favorite authors in this fandom, so be sure to check out more of her work. But anyways, one of the things I enjoy most about this fic is how it shows the depth of Klaus's feelings for Caroline.

Queen of the Highway

By: SevenSistersofSussex

https://archiveofourown.org/works/30118659

Summary: A father's love is complicated and sometimes it isn't enough, but even so, John Gilbert knows his own daughter. So when Katherine Pierce slinks into the family kitchen, he knows she isn't his daughter. With Katherine out of the way, the Gilberts leave Mystic Falls forever to run from the threat of Klaus Mikaelson. But what happens, years later, when he finds Elena anyway?

My Comments: The pairing in this fic is Klaus/Elena which is a pretty strange pairing, I know, but the author really makes the pairing work. I started reading this fic because I was looking for Elena/Elijah fics, and came across this one. But god, this has to be the best romance fanfic I’ve ever read. And that includes some pretty popular ships. The foreshadowing and romance between Elijah and Elena, and Elena and Klaus is just amazing. I like seeing how mature Elena has grown, and all the characters have grown and changed. Plus the relationship between Elena and the rest of the Mikealsons is just fantastic. This work is also cross posted on ff.net as well, so I’ll link that site down below. You do need an AO3 account to read this fic.

Certain Dark Things

By: Twocankeepasecret

https://archiveofourown.org/works/7420675

Summary: AU from 2x10. The doppelganger is alive, and ready to surrender. Damon and Elijah are both too late; Elena is taken to Klaus just like she wanted, one month before the next full moon, and one month before he’s going to kill her. It’s a dangerous game she has to play, and Elena knows better than to think she’s going to win; all she can do is whatever it takes to maybe, just maybe, not lose. 

My Comments: I just recently found this fic, and god was I swept up in it. This fic is darkly delicious in the best way, and I highly recommend it! I love the twist they took with it and how it shows how things would have played out had Elena actually been able to surrender. This fic is also cross posted on ff.net so I’ll link that down below.

Irresistible 

By: VisionsInCrimson

https://archiveofourown.org/works/28728093

Summary: Set in Season ¾. Elena feels a strange pull around him. Almost as if they are two opposing ends of a magnet. She feels herself come alive at the sight of her worst enemy. And she hates it. Hates herself for it, because it makes no logical sense to her. (Or the one where Elena is Klaus’ mate and they are both terrible at communication).

My Comments: This is an ongoing fic that I absolutely love. I think it really works at showing how a Klaus/Elena pairing can work with the events of the show. I highly recommend this fic, I really like the direction the author is taking this. This fic, like the others, is cross posted on ff.net so I’ll link it down below.

When Life Changes

By: PsychVamp

https://archiveofourown.org/works/5247182

Summary: Set in the 14th Century. Klaus sees a beautiful woman try to stand up for herself. He becomes enamored with her and wants to make her his. Caroline is unsure what to think when she catches the eye of the powerful Lord Niklaus, but she doesn't think she can stay away. And doesn't want to.

My Comments: I have to say this is a sweet little fic to read. Although I have to say I enjoy the sequel more. But I got to say I really enjoyed the dynamic between Klaus and Caroline here. I highly recommend it. (Also with the word count, I wasn't able to subtract the authors notes from this fic, so the actual word count may differ).

In Secret

By: Star_Dust47

https://archiveofourown.org/works/25217239

Summary: Elena Gilbert met Finn Mikaelson when she was 12 years old, it was the one moment in all the time that Finn had been held in the box that he managed to escape. Sadly it was not very long and soon Klaus had him back in that box he so loathed. What happens when Finn is released by Elijah Mikaelson and Damon Salvatore 6 years later....

My Comments: The reason I started reading this fic was because it was 2 am and I was bored and trying to fall asleep. And boy was I surprised by how good this fic is. I ended up getting no sleep that night because I stayed up reading and I couldn't put this fic down. StarDust actually managed to make the Finn/Elena pairing work really well. And I have to say that this fic I really enjoyed reading a lot. I highly recommend giving this fic a chance!!!!

For You I Would Wait a Thousand Years

By: AnnCatherine

Summary: On everyone's twelfth birthday, their soulmark, the birthday of their soulmate, appears on their wrist. Elena Gilbert and Elijah Mikaelson are crushed when they learn they live thousands of years apart from their soulmate.

My Comments: This is a Elena/Elijah pairing fic. I found that I really enjoyed reading this fic, and especially enjoyed seeing the relationship between Elena and Elijah develop. I also really enjoyed the relationship that Elena had with the rest of the Mikaelsons as well. This does have a sequel between Klaus and Caroline, which is basically just the outtakes between them that didn't make it into the original fic. I highly recommend reading both of these, I promise that these will make your days!!!

Maybe One Day

By: BelleMorte180

https://archiveofourown.org/works/17551664

Summary: Deciding that she was done with Mystic Falls and all the supernatural drama that comes with it, Caroline leaves town. She leaves the friends who never really put her first. She leaves her cheating boyfriend and leaves behind everything she thought she knew about herself. Yet, over time she begins to grow closer to a certain hybrid, who despite putting thousands of miles between them, she just could not get out from under her skin.

My Comments: This was actually the first Klaroline fic I read, and it's what made me fall in love with the pairing. I cannot recommend this fic enough. It is a bit of a slowburn fic, but trust me when I say the wait is worth it.

Wolf Cub

By: RadioActive59

https://archiveofourown.org/works/34505725/

Summary: When Stefan kills Ray Sutton, a child is left behind, a precocious eight-year-old werewolf named Grace. Klaus, in a rare moment of hospitality, takes her under his wing and decides to raise her as a Mikaelson. Antics ensure. And against all odds, Caroline finds that she wants to dance with a different pack of wolves. 

My Comments: I found this fic a little bit ago and was completely swept away by it. RadioActive’s OC, Grace, is just adorable and lovable. And you just fall in love with her, much like the Mikaelson’s have. I really loved Grace’s relationship with all of the Mikaelson’s, and especially her relationship with Caroline. I highly recommend giving this one a read! Also the author is currently cross-posting this fic on to AO3, so if you want to read the full (unfinished) fic, go to ff.net link down below.

Taking the Long Way Around

By: Wazman

https://archiveofourown.org/works/31768675

Summary: The Mystic Falls Gang failed in their latest attempt to kill the Original Hybrid when Stefan inexplicably came to Klaus’s aid and then helped him defeat Mikeal. Elena’s friends are now trying to make new plans. It doesn’t help that Elena is having strange dreams. All she knows is that she needs to do something but little does she know the Spirits of Nature have plans of their own.

My Comments: First of all, let me say that this is a long one. It’s over 400,000 words long. It is a time travel fic, where Elena is transported back to the past and meets the originals. And god is it so good. You can really tell how much work the author put in. I just absolutely love this fic, and I know you will too. This fic is cross posted on ff.net, so I will link that down below.

Make Them Bow

By: For_Darkness_Shows_the_Stars

https://archiveofourown.org/works/43858609

Summary: Klaus makes his way to Mystic Falls early, and for far less sinister reasons.

My Comments: The original summary was longer, but I cut it, mainly because it was dialogue directly from a fic. And while that works for a summary, not so much for a rec list. Anyway, this is a fic that’s basically what if Klaus was there for season 1 of TVD. I have to say that I love this fic, the romance between him and Caroline is adorable. And I love the bromance Stefan and Klaus have going on. I highly recommend this fic. You do need an AO3 account to read this fic.

The Big Bad Wolf

By: MorningStarGirl666

https://archiveofourown.org/works/28935819

Summary: I suppose I’ll just have to charm you the old fashioned way. He couldn’t say things like that, not when he was supposed to be the big bad wolf.

My Comments: So the summary does not do this fic justice. This fic takes TVD’s concept of werewolves and just runs with it. In this fic Klaus’s father is alive, and holy shit does the author make that work. All the OCs are loveable and fun. The author’s backstory for certain things is awesome. And this fic has hysterical parts as well as parts that will make you cry. So prepare yourself, it's one hell of a rollercoaster ride. The author did post this on Ff.net, but it only has up till chapter 6. So if you want to read the full fic, you’ll have to do it on AO3. You do need an AO3 account to read this fic.

Things I Almost Remember

By: Meet_the_Girl_Who_Can

https://archiveofourown.org/works/10451928

Summary: Klaus Mikaelson has spent over a hundred years learning how to live in a world without Caroline. Until one day she walks right back into his life. Really he should know by now that reincarnation is one unpredictable bitch.

My Comments: So the basic premise of this fic is that Caroline keeps getting reborn over the centuries (she is not a doppelganger). I have to say that this is one of my favorite fanfics to read. I tend to reread this one all the time. I also love how they pull the history of the different centuries into this fanfic. There are three more fanfics in the series, so below I will link the entire series, instead of linking each one individually.

Peace

By: Delicate_Musings13

https://archiveofourown.org/works/25633333

Summary: Instead of leaving Mystic Falls without Elena, Klaus takes her and Stefan to go make his hybrids. Stefan and Elena struggle to rebuild and make a relationship under the watchful eye of Klaus who does not want the two together. All Stefan wants is to bring some sort of peace to Elena’s new chaotic world, and all Elena wants is the peace that comes with being with Stefan. Can they build something to outlast them or will they fall apart under the pressure.

My Comments: This is a pretty good fic. It starts off kind of slow but it really builds on itself into something amazing. I highly recommend this fic. Lots of pairings in this one, so brace yourself for that.

Impossible Relations

By: JasonMorganfan87

https://archiveofourown.org/works/52202408

Summary: What if Elena wasn’t a Petrova Doppelganger after all? Why does she look so much like Katherine then? When Elijah meets Elena for the first time, he notices that she is not what she seems. How does Elena deal with it when she learns she isn’t human? What is she? And what does it have to do with Elijah?

My Comments: I really love the idea behind this fic, (Spoiler) Elena being Elijah’s daughter is a plot twist I would have never thought of, but I didn’t know how much I needed parent!Elijah. Majority of the fics have Klaus being the one to become a parent, so having it be Elijah was a nice twist. This fic is complete, and the sequel is currently ongoing as we speak. This is cross-posted on ff.net which I have linked down below.

Thank you for one million views!

✨ ONE MILLION ✨

There's a million things swirling in my head right now but I'd just like to say how over the moon I am to have crossed over a MILLION hits on my fanfics on ao3! 

It's surreal, honestly, I wouldn't be here had it not been for my readers' constant love and support towards my fics. Even when I had my moments of self-doubt and couldn't update for months, it was your support that kept me going and got me to this milestone, and for that I am so utterly grateful. Your support means more to me than I can ever truly express - it feels like more than I deserve. 💌

There are so many incredible writers on Fanfiction.net (where I got my start!) and ao3 that are an inspiration to me - Perry_Downing, tm_writes, ReyloTrashCompactor (NextToSomething), crochetaway, SageMcMae, forthelongestday, EricaNoelle180, ohwise1ne, blueenvelopes935, SouthSideStory, corvusdraconis, Red_Lily_Wine (Lilia_ula), Avdal, Simaril, TearoomSaloon, HollyDB, Ever-so-reylo, FlamingMaple, Janina, BelleMorte180, avidvampirehunter, Elywyngirlie, Hormonal_Trashbag, and countless more. 

I was 15 when I started sharing my work on fanfiction.net, and I'm about to turn 25 (in just a couple of minutes...!). It feels like a character arc in itself haha; the journey from losing my mind over a hundred views to now over a million! Thank you all so much - I hope that you continue to enjoy my work in 2024 (and yes - Curious Girl will be updated!). 🥂💖

For the fanfiction ask game......

Ps long time no see stranger 💓😜

Hi!!!!!! Yes, I’ve been on prolonged hiatus cause life got very busy, but I’ve returned as my favorite period of the year (October - December) begins. I’m also obsessed with like four things right now so, why not rejoin Tumblr. 

❤️- The fanfiction that holds a special place in your heart

I mean, like, how do I narrow it down? I have more than 3K AO3 bookmarks. However two of my favorite are the Born to Rule series by TitansRule. Not only is this fic where I started shipping Kolvina, but it’s practically a perfect Originals rewrite. Also, on the Klaroline train because most Klaroline fan fictions hold a special place in my heart is Sanctuary in their Hearts by thatsanotherlovestory. It’s truly a perfect post TVD season 8 fanfiction with Klaroline, Kalijah, and Kelvin. Plus plenty of soft Klaus for my own amusement. Also, also, bonus points, She Deserves Better and the Domino Effect by CrazyGirl92. And, last, but not least, Metanoia by Haylee_BB, I absolutely adore this fic with my entire shoul. There are more most of your works and BelleMorte180′s works are perfection, and I have more thank 1,000 fan fictions bookmarked with notes saying how much I love them so I’ll stop gushing now. 

🌟- Your most popular fanfiction

My most popular fanfiction is The Unexpected Surprise. It has over 41,000 hits and is in desperate need of a spellcheck edit, but I have too many new ideas. Many of them KC, many of them House of the Dragon and Rings of Power, and honestly I’m considering writing fanfic again next month just as a relaxing break from all the work I’ve been doing on my original works. 

🙀- The fanfiction that would give your mom (or any parent figure) a heart attack if they read it

Honestly, if we’re talking things I’ve written Tribrid’s Plural is my most, shall we say, graphic in terms of violence. But if we’re talking things I’ve read, most of them, so I’ll pick out one of my favorites. Just Good Business by BelleMorte180. This fic is incredible and twisted and I adore it entirely.

Happy Birthday Erica!

I hope your day is full of good food, friends, Willow and Pen snuggles and the Sims @bellemorte180!

I've been working on something for you!

like you’d get your knuckles bloody for me

Title is from Taylor Swift, obvi, and can be applied to both Bonnie and Klaus from Caroline's perspective.

Outsider pov, gold rush elements, and dark elements thrown in for you. Hope you like it!

San Francisco, 1852

The hairs on the back of her neck stood up, making her glance around the dank alley. This night was truly going from bad to worse. Fog was rolling in and the heels of her boots squelched in the mud. Between one thought and the next, a downpour blinked into existence, turning the already slick mud road into a treacherous path. The witch grimaced as her dark hair came loose from her up do and hung around her face.  She muttered a spell under her breath to keep herself from being soaked.

She was not looking forward to cleaning the debris from her hem, and there was an appointment on the other side of town that she could not be late for. The agreement between the species was only being held together by a thread.  The wolves were getting testy and the vampires were breaking the fragile treaty more recklessly than ever. The locals could not be harmed, though with the sudden influx of migrants, hoping to become rich from gold, the line of who was and was not an acceptable meal was becoming blurred.

The Original Family was not being helpful.  Her coven had been hopeful that Elijah would have a plan to rein in Klaus, but Bonnie had doubts on his capability, given past events. There was a reason that the dark-haired Original’s was known to sacrifice everything for his Machiavellian younger brother. Not to mention that Kol had recently arrived from New Orleans, and where he went, trouble and chaos followed.  She didn’t know how to feel about how his eyes would trace her figure as they sat in the same coven meeting.

The coven Elders thought that vampires were abominations and aberrations in nature, but even they could not refuse the vast resources of grimoires and magical knowledge that Kol Mikaelson had amassed over his long life. 

She stumbled to a stop in the middle of the alleyway, or she would have if she wasn’t trying to stop her boots from sinking further into the muck. There sitting in a perfect circle of moonlight was the lapis lazuli engagement ring that Caroline had found while panning for gold in the river last week.  Her blonde friend had told her of a mysterious figure in the fog that kept watching her, waiting, in case she needed help; if she fell in and was carried downriver, unable to fight the strong current, her legs caught in the long length of her voluminous skirts.

The ring that Bonnie had watched her friend send back to Klaus; multiple times, each with a fond eye roll and a reminder that she was being courted by Mr. Donovan.  Bonnie did not know who her blonde friend was trying to convince more, Klaus Mikaelson or herself.  The actions and words that she spoke to and of him were more teasing than rebuking. The looks exchanged across the market square and the drawings he left for her showed that he was courting Caroline as well, even if she was not verbally acknowledging his suit.

Bonnie followed the drops of blood that littered the ground, that began at the ring, then melding into a trail, to find that they led to the massacred body of Matthew Donovan.

In truth, massacred was a…. kind word for the scene that she was currently gaping at.  The Mikaelsons knew the importance of being discreet; so why was Mr. Donovan’s entrails spread across the dirty lane, his heart in a corner, and his throat torn out?

The smell of dead leaves and blood in the air intensified as a vampire whooshed in front of her.  His sandy blond hair was curling in the front, and there were a few drops of blood dotting his collar. Not for the first Bonnie mused on how vampires were truly unassuming creatures, their prey didn’t know how truly in over their heads they were, right until their last moments.  The Mikealson were prime examples of this.

Her heart thumped at the shock of his sudden appearance before she glared at the man in front of her.

“Why am I not surprised that this,” she gestured to the eviscerated body lying between them, “was your fault?”

“Come now Miss Bennett, I thought that with your acquaintance with Kol, you would be willing to give me the benefit of the doubt.”

She scoffed at him, “Kol and I’s relationship is none of your business. Your time would be better managed concerning yourself with Caroline's reaction to this.”

She motioned to the bloody mass of flesh.

He smirked, “I am not worried about sweet Caroline’s response; besides, she has never quite hid her blushes around me well enough. In time you will learn, that I always get what I want, little witch, and that something as minuscule as a milquetoast suitor, is not an obstacle that bores thinking of.”

Bonnie hadn’t a high opinion of Matthew Donovan but still he hadn’t deserved to die; she would have settled for sending him on a permanent mission to Europe. It was clear now, why Rebekah had been spending so much time with the human, when it was rumoured that she had a lover named Marcel back in New Orleans.  It likely hadn’t taken too much of an effort from the blonde vampire to convince Donovan to cease ingesting his daily dose of vervain. 

The foolish man likely hadn’t even realized that his ring was missing.

His death was inevitable, but perhaps it wouldn’t have been so gruesome if he had been faithful to Caroline.

“Perhaps Caroline will say that she needs time to process the sudden death of her beau, or more likely, she will use the mourning period as an excuse to turn me away from her door.  Regardless, I have all the time in the world to wait for her; she has expressed an interest in turning.”

He glanced down at the bloody, beautiful ring. “Quite an interesting coincidence that that ring found its way to Caroline.“

In the distant Californian hills, a wolf howled. The rain was slowing, the wind stilling.

“It was a pleasure speaking with you Miss Bennett, I will see you at the meeting, we must do everything we can to protect the town, I have heard that there is a crazed murderer on the loose!”

There was a manic smile on his face as he sketched a shallow bow before walking over, placing a kiss on her knuckles, and speeding away. Bonnie shivered when she saw the remnants of Matthew’s blood on her hands. 

She found it difficult to pry her heels from the mud, evidence of how long she had been standing there talking to Caroline’s terrifyingly resolute admirer.

Ahhhh i have not been on tumblr much lately but thank you for the tags @morningstargirl666 and @stars-and-darkness! Here is a snippet of a klaroline mated wolves prompt I got from @bellemorte180 in october *coughs uncomfortably*

Their wolves were gone come daylight, as they always were, but Caroline often rose the morning after a full moon feeling not quite...human. Phantom limbs still padding through the forest, muscles remembering the pull of the moon. And, oh, the rage. That was still here too, filtered through her wolf’s senses, bristling with the indescribable sensation of Pack. She was going to kill him.

What fic is Long Ride Home? I don't remember this one.

Its a fic that I haven't updated in well over a year. Basically its an AH AU were Klaus attends his wife's, Caroline's, funeral after being married for over 70 years. He is elderly and he spends the drive home, his grandson and great-granddaughter in the front seat, reflecting on his life with Caroline; basically the story how they met and fell in love, building a life together in the 1940s during WWII and onward.
