Emma!Clegan au

“John Clarence Egan, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-four years in the world with very little to distress or vex him.”

Well, his brother-in-law, Mr. Cleven, does vex him. Constantly. And Mr. Cleven? Well, Mr. Cleven should like to see John in love.

 Goin’ To The Chapel And We’re Gonna Get Married...

Happy Friday!

So.......... Arranged Marriage fics are my all-time favorite trope LMAO. I just never get tired of two strangers who gotta get married for politics or whatever and then they just gotta figure out how to live together, learn each other’s language, overcome cultural differences.... IT’S SO GOOD EVERY TIME. Here are a few of my favorite Arranged Marriage fics in no particular order:

Title: Just as You Are Mine

Author: prosciutto / @prosciuttoe​

Ship: Bellamy Blake/Clarke Griffin (The 100)

Rating: Mature

Words: 23,637

Summary: Bellamy’s already there by the time she makes her way to the centre of the room. She didn’t get a good look at him before, so Clarke takes the time to look at him now. 

He’s not all that much taller than she is, but the breadth of his shoulders feels worrying, somewhat. His skin is marked with a array of calluses and scars, white against his tanned skin, and the deft, sure movements he makes confirms that he’s every inch the warrior he’s promised to be.

Swallowing, she steps forward, meeting his gaze. His face remains carefully blank, same as before, when Kane had told her that they’d be married. 

In hindsight, marrying a total stranger may not have been one of Clarke's brightest ideas.

(Or: Arranged Marriage AU. Clarke seals an alliance with the Broadleaf clan by marrying Bellamy Blake.)

emmatheficreccer: I LOVE Grounder Bellamy AUs and this is one of the best ones out there!! Bellamy is very soft; we love to see it. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title: To Know His Heart

Author: hkafterdark 

Ship: Jamie Benn/Tyler Seguin (Hockey RPF)

Rating: Explicit

Words: 26,208

Summary: With his reputation in tatters, Tyler will do anything to save his family's name - including marrying a man he hardly knows.

emmatheficreccer: OK SO I know nothing about hockey; i have no idea who these two dudes are. BUT this is one of the best Arranged Marriage/Marriage of Convenience, Regency era fics out there!!! I’ve read it so many times... the way their relationship evolves... *chef’s kiss*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title: The Feasts of the Seven

Author: Gefionne / @gefionne​

Ship: Sandor Clegane/Sansa Stark (Game of Thrones)

Rating: Mature

Words: 26,388

Summary: Sansa and Sandor share the Seven Feasts - A tourney for the Feast of the Warrior ends with Sandor as champion and, by the will of the king, Sansa as his prize. Over the next year, they get to know each other as they find their way in their new home at Clegane Keep.

emmatheficreccer: I love AUs where Sander is able to whisk Sansa away from King’s Landing. In this fic, Sansa and Sandor are forced to marry, but end up building a beautiful life together and it is lovely!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title: Another Word for Forever

Author: stardropdream

Ship: Keith/Shiro (Voltron)

Rating: Explicit

Words: 61,028

Summary: Shiro knows better than to expect love in an arranged marriage. This is all for the sake of universal peace, after all, and solidifying a Terran-Galran alliance. At the very least, Shiro can hope to make a friend out of this.

Becoming friends would be much easier, though, if he and his husband could actually communicate. With a language barrier and a mountain of cultural differences between them, getting to know Keith proves to be a challenge.

Luckily, Shiro's always worked well with challenges.

emmatheficreccer: OK SO THIS FIC is one of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITES. A great part of Arranged Marriage AUs is two strangers overcoming cultural differences and learning to communicate. In this fic they even have a language barrier to add to the miscommunication and i just love how they eventually learn to understand each other and fall in love!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title: Not Part of the Plan

Author: Annie D (scaramouche) / @no-gorms​

Ship: Castiel/Dean Winchester (Supernatural)

Rating: Explicit

Words: 337,851

Summary: Castiel's spent most of his adult life keeping his head down and staying out of trouble. This is a deliberate choice on his part, because as a cousin of the King, he'd rather stay unimportant and forgotten. This changes abruptly when King Michael decides that he has a better use for Castiel: he is to be wed to a noble member of the neighboring Republic, as part of an agreement between their two nations.

Castiel knows he has to obey, but that doesn't mean he won't rebel in what small ways he can. Unexpectedly, his actions end up having far-reaching consequences.

emmatheficreccer: So this may be my favorite fanfic series of all time. Seriously! This series has everything!! it evolves from a one night stand to an arranged marriage to an epic adventure with politics, battles and romance! The first time i read this fic series i just immediately wanted to read it again. It’s THAT good. You don’t even need to know Supernatural! The first time I read this fic, i had never seen a single episode. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If there is an Arranged Marriage Fic that you love, send it my way! I’d love to check it out. Also be sure to leave a Kudos and/or Comment for these lovely authors if you check out and love these fics! If you think i should do a part 2 for Arranged Marriage Fics, let me know!!

Love always,

Emma

he may be the reason and the emma au

he may be the reason is my notting hill au and im hard at work on chapter 2 🫡 here’s a snippet:

“And you’re from ‘Horse and Hound’ magazine?” Veal says to John. John just nods. Veal checks his watch and goes to stand in the corner. When it becomes clear he’s not leaving again John realises he’s going to have to pretend to be a real journalist. He clears his throat.

“So I’ll just fire away, shall I?” Gale nods at him slowly, smirking. Veal hasn’t looked up from his notepad.

“Right, well, the film’s great,” John hedges, trying to come up with a question, “and, I just wondered if you, um, whether you had considered having more, uh, horses in it?”

“Well, we would have liked to but, obviously, that would have been difficult, since the film is set in space.” Gale enjoys watching the blush rise on John’s cheeks.

the Emma au came from an ask that @avonne-writes got a few weeks ago. i’m still planning out this one bc there’s so many characters and i’m going a little insane about it. but here’s what i have written so far:

John Clarence Egan, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-five years in the world with very little to distress or vex him.

He was the youngest of the two children of a most affectionate, indulgent father; and had, in consequence of his sister’s marriage nearly eight years past, been the sole daily object of their father’s attention. His mother had died too long ago for him to have more than an indistinct remembrance of her caresses; and her place had been supplied by an excellent woman as governess, who had fallen little short of a mother in affection.
