Howl's Moving Castle Fic Recs

This list will include all ratings and tags, so read at your own discretion! :)

Dealing With Dragons by Flamebyrd - Rated G

In which a dragon kidnaps Howl, and Sophie talks to a lot of inanimate objects. Oh, and the dragon.

Sleeping Beauty by haraamis - Rated T

One day, Sophie just doesn't wake up.

Romantic Comedy by nuricurry - Rated G

If there was one nice thing to be said about the notorious Wizard Howl, it was that he had an excellent eye for detail. That was how he began to notice certain things about his wife Sophie— small, homey, insignificant things, that made him feel terribly romantic and domestic and all manner of endeared to her.

In Which Sophie is Introduced to the Rugby Club by DwarvenBeardSpores - Rated T

Howl takes Sophie to Wales to meet his friends and watch a game. They get drunk, and there is more magic than anticipated. Of course.

heart palpitations by doesnotsuffice - Rated G

“Sophie, my chest aches.” “That’s your heart, Howl.” It takes Howl time to adjust to just how painful having a heart is.

Remarkable by jumpinginmuddypuddles - Rated G

“You’ll have to explain to the Matron.” Markl grumbles, but grabs Pendragon’s hand anyway and allows himself to be tugged to his feet. The Wizard’s hand is warm, worn and large. It swallows up Markl’s in a pale fist, but for once, Markl doesn’t really mind. “She’ll think you kidnapped me.” “I can do that.” Pendragon laughs. Markl doesn’t want to let go of his hand. “My name is Howl, by the way. You mustn't work under me and still call me sir. It’ll make me feel old.” Howl doesn’t take his hand away. Neither does Markl. /// Markl, on gaining a family in the weirdest sense. Howl isn't his father, nor Sophie his mother, but they're the closest he'll probably get, and he's okay with that. He's okay with them.

sunward i've climbed by elegantstupidity - Rated M

It's one thing to demolish an entire, magical castle in the pursuit of saving the man you love. It's another to try and live in it afterwards. Or: Before she can get to the business of her happily ever after, Sophie has a hell of a cleanup ahead of her.

your heart has called me closer to you by hophigh - Rated M

Sweet vignettes of Howl and Sophie's growing relationship after the events of the film.

Hearts and Their Consumption by setepenre_set - Rated T

Wizard Howl eats hearts. This isn't just a metaphor.

Natural by Minutia_R - Rated G

"Someone," said Howl with an ominous flourish of sleeves, "and I'm not naming names but it starts with an S—has tipped all my hair spells into the sink." In which Howl learns to stop worrying and love his natural hair color. In a way.

Lady of the Castle by SweetDragonSeeker - Rated G

Everyone knows there ain't no girl in Howl's castle. Right?

So I am reading Howl's moving Castle right now and I gotta say... the movie isn't really based on it, more loosely inspired by it.

The movie doesn't even mention that Howl's real name is "Howell Jenkins"... oh, and he's Welsh...

[lil-ace-of-spades]

do you think sophie would vote for howl?

Tbh no. And she has her reasons.

Din and Grogu are very supportive, even though they don't exactly understand what winning the @twinkpoll would entail. Luke doesn't mind losing but he does appreciate the effort. If you'd like to vote while there's still time, go here.

[downbaddetective]

Next one because I can't stop thinking about this AU now:

Charles-Markl, a sorcerer in training under the tutelage of "The Cat King", who specializes in magical disguises and pocket dimensions (biggest successful one currently is a "bag of tricks")

Crystal-Calcifer, a fire demon currently magically tied to "The Cat King" due to a deal turned curse

Monty-Turnip Head, a missing prince from a neighboring kingdom, cursed to be a scarecrow (because I think that's hilarious)

Niko-Lettie/Martha (taking a little from the books for this one), one of Edwin's only friends before he disappears, Niko goes to learn magic from another witch (hi Jenny) to see if she can find her dear friend

Cat (Meatball?)-Heen, a lazy spy for the Night Nurse turned semi domesticated house cat

Esther-Witch of the Waste, kinda self-explanatory I think

Night Nurse-Madame Suliman, "The Cat King's" former teacher currently employed by the kingdom to recruit magic users to the war or remove power from those who won't

Part One | Part Two

reuploading because there are some parts I wanted to tweak, and also added a version where howl and sophie are sporting their looks at the end of the movie!

Howl's Moving Castle (2004)

Dir. Hayao Miyazaki

[diamondsunbursts-and-marblehalls]

Hear me out. Howl, Sophie and Calcifer are Lockwood Lucy and George in a different universe.

A cocky boy who's seemingly selfish, actually noble, and allergic to communication. He schemes and plots, doesn't let anyone in, obsessed with his appearance and the public eye. Would kill before letting anyone in. Would die before letting anything hurt the people he cares about. Does everything he can to pretend he doesn't care. Is a business partner with his best friend, and knows he couldn't do it without him. The prettiest smile in the whole world and he knows it. An asshole. Absolutely magnetic and frightening at the same time. Falls in love at first sight, and he wouldn't change a thing. A homeowner.

A spitfire girl with a low opinion of herself, extremely nosy and will not be left out of things. Is more special than she can comprehend, completely self-sufficient, tends to think everything bad is her fault, and would go to the ends of the earth to protect the people she loves. Inadvertently manages to turn any house into a home, and any random group of people into a family. Can't not steal things? Falls in love before she can stop herself. Petty and easily gets jealous. Will call you out without hesitation. Talks to inanimate objects and thinks she always knows best. In a reluctant partnership, ends up caring about him more than she intended to.

A genius boy underappreciated by most, but knows more than pretty much anyone. Obnoxious and easily annoyed, with a big mouth and a mean sense of humor. Quite easily the glue that holds everyone together. Doesn't wear pants. The warm hearth they all come back to. Runs on his own time and doesn't mind anyone else's opinions. Knows full well his best friend might be a psycho but wouldn't leave him for anything. Generally sees more of what's going on than anyone else. Bullies his associate relentlessly but would defend her with his life. Constantly seeking to learn more. Legally required to take his best friend's side when it comes down to it.

Howl's moving castle - Turnip Head

Here I drew 'Turnip Head' from Ghibli's interpretation of Howl's Movie castle.

Howl and little Markl 🩷

[strawberry-car]

Your howl fics are amazing!! I am so happy someone writes for Howl and Male and GN readers! :) Thank you so much.

Can I request a Howl x Male reader, where Howl is dealing with his own problems and is getting more annoyed by the minute, so when the reader comes to him with a small problem (like maybe they ran out of some magic ingredient idrk T~T), he just couldn't add a new problem to his list and snaps. He takes his anger out on the reader.

When this happens to me I usually snap, then go somewhere and come back home to sleep and forget about what I did when I snapped till the next day.

Maybe this can happen with Howl? Like the next day, when the reader is scared to talk to him he remembers what he did and comforts the reader.

Sorry if this is too long, I had ideas for Howl for so long but I can't write them out ;-; So you're like a miracle to me.

Take care <3

you are the sweetest anon ever. I can and will write this but it took a bit, sorry bout that. So here it is! Also, feel free to come to me with all your Howl x Male/gn Reader ideas I need stuff to fill my time anyways. I do apologize for this being so late I've been dealing with a lot of shit.

At the current moment, you were trying to make a potion that would help Howl recover less painfully after his little trips through space and time. That specific wizard was sitting at the table with his eyes closed and the bags under his eyes rather prominent.

You worried your bottom lip between your teeth. You couldn't find a certain ingredient you needed and Markl was out. You'd have to ask Howl.

"Eh- Howl?" Your voice started quiet. You fiddled with the hem of your shirt. "Uh, Y/n? Y/n, kid, you shouldn't do that!" Calcifer warned from the fireplace. "I don't know where the dried maple flowers are! And I doubt you know." You countered.

"Howl, sweetheart, I'm sorry but-" You just barely touched his shoulder when he jumped up. "Fuck off, Y/n!! Why do you have to be so fucking annoying?!" He yelled, his eyes full of rage.

You flinched back, eyes wide. You quickly left the room, leaving the ingredients by the fireplace. Abandoned. "Howl.." Calcifer sighed. They both looked after you with mixed emotions. "You don't deserve that boy. Never did."

~Next Day~~

The morning fell around and you woke with some difficulty. Your face was red from crying and you were glad that there was more than one bathroom in this castle.

You washed your face and listened carefully for any signs that anyone was around. None. You slipped from the tiles onto the wood and were met with the glittering eyes of Markl. "Hey, Uncle Y/n, I was wondering- Wait are you okay?" He asked.

You nodded. " 'Course. What's up?" He shook his head. "Nevermind. I'll be right back! I have to do something real quick." Markl ran off down the hall, his red hair floofing out a crazily.

You gave s small smile before turning around and being met with sapphire eyes. Your face fell and you suddenly felt scared. "Wait, Y/n, please don't go." The desperation in his voice startled you. You looked back up at him.

"Y/n.. Darling, I'm sorry. I really am." His voice was quiet, like you'd never heard it before. "..." He raised a gentle hand and brushed a stray lock of hair from in front of your eyes.

"I was just..." He seemed to be struggling with his words. "Angry. Frustrated. Overworked." You finished for him. Howl nodded slowly. "Forgive me?" His voice was no higher than a whisper now.

You thought for a moment, gently intertwining your fingers together. "Sure. But this is your one and only free pass. You kissed him softly, no more than a peck. "Do you still love me, at least?" You blinked. Then giggled. "Of course, you moron."

He swept you up in his arms before bringing you to bed. Howl buried his face in your chest and restricted most of your movement. You twirled a finger through his hair.

The door opened, just an inch. And a hand came through with a handmade craft. Markl placed his little gift on the dresser and left, thinking he was unseen completely. You chuckled. How darling.

~The End~

I hope this is to your standards, if not I apologize Again, I apologize for it being so late I've moved twice in the last year and moving schools is a pain in the ass. Doesn't do much mentally either.

Funny sketch of a funny AU me and my friend thought. I don't like anything about the sketch lol but I just traced over Sophie and Howl to be able to visualize Reigen and Serizawa better. Ik Serizawa looks very...goofy

The idea started with Calcifer and Dimple looking alike, then I compared Howl and Reigen, so we conclude Serizawa would be Sophie ofc. Mob is Markl and Toichiro probably is Prince Justin (AKA Turnip Head),

This could also work as Sophie and Howl = terumob or ritshou
