#prompt nr.7

[raviraaa]

#7 of random merlin prompts:

s03e10: Queen of Hearts AU

arwen -> morgwen & merthur

Morgana is still haunted by visions of Gwen being crowned Queen, but the real reason why she despises that particular future are the (not actually unrequited) feelings for her maid-servant she desperately tried to get over during her time with Morgause. Gwen being crowned as Arthurs Queen however is the last straw and Morgana tries everything (except outing them to Uther) to put an end to Arwens relationship before it has even begun. Merlin, obviously, tries everything to stop her. Unknowingly to both of them, Arthur and Gwen have a surprising heart to heart in the meantime, talking about dreams and hopes for their futures that don‘t quite align anymore (mainly due to their denied feelings for certain warlocks/sorceresses).

Featuring:

jealous morgana / protective merlin

smart gwen / obliviously pining arthur

a quartett of denied feelings & lots of miscommunication

angst with a happy ending

In the end it‘s nothing more than a simple misinterpretation. Morgana keeps having visions, until she finally realizes that they never meant Gwen to be Arthur‘s Queen. When the vision reveals itself fully, it is no other than Morgana herself crowning her love.

This Week (x2) in Tomarrymort (25 October – 7 November 2024)

Hello again! We have two multi-chaptered fics finishing this week, highlighted below, as well as a bunch of delicious one-shots and chapter updates as always.

Completed Fic:

Sits the wind in that quarter by @mosiva (M, 61k, complete) “After something of a long absence, Lord Riddle, the Earl of Gaunt, had returned to London.” This is a really cool Regency and Omegaverse AU (how cool is that to see that combined??) that features a lot of courting, gossip and intrigue, social climbing, and Alpha Tom Riddle along with Beta Harry Potter.  Broken Tomarrymort Telephone: Collected Stories by @exquisite-tomarrymort-telephone (E, 109k, complete)  A Tomarrymort version of the Broken Telephone game — passing a whispered word or phrase around a circle, with it often evolving into something quite different as it goes from person to person. “In our version, the starting person received a secret prompt and wrote a fic based on it. They then created a prompt for the next person by summing up what they had written in a single sentence -- with the caveat that their prompt couldn't use the same words as the prompt they were given. This continued through twenty-six (26!) different authors and artists, each adding their own flair and creativity to the exercise. Which brings us to now! We're wrapping up the creation part, so it's time to start sharing it with the world. We hope you enjoy what we've created -- we certainly enjoyed making it.”

In addition, a recap of the author notes from last week. (Please feel free to add some extra context to your fic update in the reblog, such as a little bit about the chapter(s) updated, and I’ll throw it in the update for next week!)

every step i choose to take begins to set the world aflame by @boyneptunee (NR, 4k, WIP) “Tom Riddle wants to become immortal. He will do whatever it takes to achieve it. It gets him in the most interesting situations. (A Phoenix saves his life. The Phoenix is not a Phoenix.)” These Fragments We've Shored by @rowena-rain (M, 31k, WIP) “You call me here because you crave atonement, and only I can give you that. After all, I am the only other who knows what it means to tear one���s soul. Or, as one very astute commenter put it, "Enter Voldemort, the World's Worst Therapist!" (Sorry in advance - Voldemort basically wrote this chapter lol)” Touch of Death by @moontearpensfic (E, 6k, WIP) “An oviposition AU, where Eldritch Harry/Death gives Tom his eggs, which will protect Tom from, well, death. In chapter two, the eggs hatch.” Time Stumbler by @wintumnly (T, 96k, WIP) “One part of my slowburn Harry-raises-Tom series. It ends in Tomarry, but everything building up to that point is unhinged humor, not-good-at-feelings fluff, and angsty plot surrounding Harry and Tom's chaotic and ever growing affections for one another. Update 23 explores Unconditional Love, and there will be familial love, friendship love, flirtatious love, obsessive love and others in future parts.”

[semperama]

hiii, for the ask game, i would love nr 7 (i dreamt about you last night) for buddie! ✨️

This is probably not what you had in mind when you sent this prompt, and I'm sorry!! It got a little angsty on me. Also long.

“I dreamt about you last night.”

----

Buck wakes up to sheets soaked with sweat, a scream halfway out of his mouth. His ears are still ringing with gunfire, sirens. His heart is pounding, his lungs pulling desperately at the air. He paws at his face, his neck, looks at his hands in the semi-dark and expects them to be stained black with blood.

But it’s just clean skin. He’s alone in his bedroom, legs tangled in the blankets, no copper taste on his tongue.

It was a dream. Just a dream.

The fourth time he’s had the same dream in as many nights.

He throws back the covers and gets out of bed, goes into the bathroom where he turns on the light and splashes water on his face, like that might wash it all the way. They always do it in the movies, the water trick. He wonders if it ever works for them. It doesn’t work for him.

Even when he’s awake, he sees it. The blank expression on Eddie’s face. The pool of blood spreading across the asphalt. The way Eddie’s hand moved. He reached for Buck like Buck could save him, and Buck tried, but it doesn’t feel like it was enough. Even though Eddie’s alive—it was because the bullet missed vital organs, and because the surgeons knew what they were doing. But if he’d been hit a couple inches to the left…Buck couldn’t have done anything. Eddie might still have reached for him, but all he would have been able to do was watch him die.

“Fuck,” he mutters, then splashes himself with another handful of cold water. He can’t—won’t—go back to bed, so he shuts off the faucet and goes downstairs, curls up on the couch and turns the TV on.

He should nod off again. He’s tired enough to. But he knows by now what will happen if he does, the worst moment of his life in technicolor, surround sound. So he stays awake, until the gray light of dawn crowds out the darkness beyond his windows.

———

The nightmares didn’t start until Buck went home. The nights he slept on the Diaz couch were quiet and dreamless, either because he was too exhausted or too numb. He went to work, did the necessary chores, helped Christopher with his homework and cooked him dinner. His body ran on autopilot and his mind stayed blissfully blank, and at night he dropped off to sleep like someone pulled his plug.

But it’s been almost a week since Eddie got home, five days since he sent Buck back to the loft. You’ll kill your back sleeping on that couch much longer. I’ll call you if you need you. Buck hasn’t gotten more than four hours of sleep in a night since.

“You look like shit,” Chim says when Buck clomps up the stairs for breakfast at the start of their next shift. And Buck knows it’s the truth. He saw himself in the mirror this morning. His eyes are bloodshot, and the circles under them have darkened into a bruised shade of purple. His hands have been shaking so much, he keeps them stuffed into his pockets or curled around something—the strap of his bag, a coffee mug.

Bobby’s busy chopping a handful of chives, but when he looks up, Buck knows immediately what he’s going to say.

“Go home, Buck,” Bobby says. “You know you’re no use to us like this.”

What the fuck am I going to do at home? Buck wants to ask—but he also knows Bobby’s right. In his current state, he’d end up jamming the Jaws into his own leg, or throw himself off the side of a building before clipping in.

Maybe neither would be so bad, though. Maybe a different kind of pain would be a relief.

Regardless, he can’t go home. He sits inside the Jeep in the parking lot for almost ten minutes, hands curled around the steering wheel, wondering if a nap here would end up the same way. Then, he starts up the engine and drives to Eddie’s.

It takes a while for Eddie to get to the door, and Buck realizes too late he’s probably sleeping. It’s early, and the painkillers always make him tired, and Buck should have just—let him sleep. Someone should be getting some sleep.

“Why didn’t you just come in?” Eddie asks when he sees it’s Buck on his doorstep. He looks—soft. His hair is sleep-rumpled. He’s not wearing a shirt, his sling strapped across his bare chest, and soft black sweatpants sit low on his hips. Buck wants to lean in and bury his face into the place where his shoulder meets his neck.

“Not sure,” Buck says honestly. His brain isn’t working right, probably. How could it, when it’s wrapped in three layers of cotton?

Eddie steps back to let him in, a furrow forming in his brow. “Wait, aren’t you supposed to be at work?” he says. “And why do you look like—is everything okay?”

Buck shuffles in just enough for Eddie to shut the door behind him. “I had a dream about you,” he says, dropping his gaze to the floor. He feels like a child, showing up in his parents’ bedroom in the middle of the night to cry about the monsters in his closet. Or—it’s how he imagines it must feel. His own parents certainly weren’t interested in protecting him from the things that go bump in the night.

“A dream?” Eddie repeats. He takes a step forward, puts a hand on Buck’s shoulder, and ducks his head to meet his eyes.

“More than one, actually.” Buck doesn’t want to look at him, but he knows he won’t stand for it. “Every night.” His voice cracks. “The sniper.”

“Buck.” Eddie’s hand tightens on him, grips hard enough to hurt. It’s good. Grounding. Buck wants to beg him to leave a bruise. “Why didn’t you say something?

“You’re the one who got shot,” Buck says. “What right do I have to even—”

“No, hey.” Eddie moves in closer, his hand kneading Buck’s shoulder, only a few inches of space between them now. “For me, it was just…pain, and-and your face, and then black. For you…I’ve been in your shoes before, too. I know how scary it can be.”

Buck wants to reach for him, but there’s no safe place to put his hands—the soft skin of Eddie’s waist, the pillow crease that slashes across the side of his face. “I almost didn’t save you.” Finally, Buck touches Eddie’s elbow, just gently, with the tips of his fingers. “I froze, Eddie.” His breath hitches. He can feel his face start to crumple. “I almost didn’t—”

“Oh, Buck.” Eddie yanks him in, guides Buck’s forehead to that spot Buck wanted to nestle into moments ago, holds him close. It’s awkward with Eddie’s bum arm smushed between them, his knuckles digging into Buck’s stomach, but it’s also perfect, because Eddie is warm and alive, his heart beating and blood rushing through his veins and lungs expanding, his breath ruffling Buck’s hair. “I’m here,” he murmurs, his fingers scratching into the hair at the back of Buck’s head. “I’m fine. You did save me, okay? I’m right here.”

Buck cries. For how long, he doesn’t know. Shaky sobs into Eddie’s shoulder, Eddie’s skin going slick under his cheek. His arms curl around Eddie’s waist, and his fingers dig in, clinging. Eddie almost died, but he didn’t die. He’s here, and he’s solid, and he’s real. Buck doesn’t ever want to let go of him again.

“Here, why don’t we…” Eddie says after some indeterminate amount of time, shifting to wrap his arm around Buck’s shoulders and tug. “Come on. Come lay down with me. You need sleep.”

“Yeah,” Buck says, a strangled sound. He lifts his head enough to walk under his own power, but he won’t stop touching Eddie, one arm still wound around him, their hips brushing all the way down the hall.

In the bedroom, he makes himself let go of Eddie long enough that Eddie can rearrange himself in bed, get into a position that’s comfortable for his shoulder. Buck climbs in carefully, but as soon as he starts to settle, Eddie pulls him closer, manhandles him so his face is tucked against Eddie’s neck again, that spot starting to feel like it was made just for him, two puzzle pieces fitting together.

“Sleep,” Eddie says, and soon, Buck does.

He falls into dreams of Eddie, but this time it’s different—not the sniper, not any other disaster. He dreams of Eddie and Chris at the zoo, gilded with sunlight. He dreams of Eddie grinning up at him during a rope rescue. He dreams of warm skin, warm breath, strong fingers pressing bruises into his hips.

He sleeps, and he dreams of Eddie.

hiii!! congrats on 2k!!!

can i req nr.7 and nr.17 with mammon(both directed at him) please? i think it'd be really cute <33

thank you! i will gladly write this :)

i might make some headcanons about the whole laundry day concept thing, like what it would be like to share a laundry day and washing machine with them! i really ran with it without intending to haha

enjoy <3

prompts 7 and 17 w/ Mammon

Laundry wasn't exactly easy to manage in a house with seven demons and their human. Before your arrival, it was much more simple. Each brother got one day to do their laundry. The brother knew they'd have to add an additional member to their laundry rotation when the exchange program started, and at first it seemed as if it would be a chore in itself on who'd have to share their laundry day with you. They could just add you in after Belphie and before Lucifer, but that would throw off the seven day system and make things much more prone to conflict. So, the best option seemed to be sharing a day.

However, after they met you, it became something of a competition on who'd get to share their day with you. Naturally, this duty fell onto Mammon at first since he was the first to get closest with you and was your assigned guardian. He defended this honor hand and foot. His brothers constantly bargained with him to try and get him to swap. A couple times, Lucifer forcefully took it from him and other times he had an offer he couldn't refuse, but you always ended up back with him somehow.

Today was Tuesday, Mammon's laundry day. Washing your clothes together at the same time was easiest, so you always sat together and sorted your dirty clothes into lights, darks, and colors. At first, Mammon was very opposed to it, blushing and averting his eyes when it came to dealing with your undergarments, but he got over it after a while, but not before the two of you had lots of moments that involved yelling, embarrassment, and half an hour of awkwardness on his end. You took turns moving the clothes into the washer, then the dryer. Once it was all done, you separated your clothes so you could fold them and take them back to your respective rooms. Mammon learnt a lot from you about how to properly fold and organize his clothes, so much so that he didn't know how he functioned before. At first, you folded together because he needed help, but now it was just a nice time to chat and get the task done absentmindedly.

Both of you really looked forward to this time together, and while you'd probably both be more efficient if you did it separately, it was time spent together, which Mammon wouldn't trade for the world. He secretly really enjoyed the domesticity. But, because you often folded without thinking, sometimes you got each other's clothes. As a result of this, Mammon ended up with your shirt. He realized while he was putting his shirts that he'd accidently folded one of your shirts and put it in with his. It had originally been his, actually, but he'd given it to you while he was clearing out his wardrobe a while back.

His first thought was to return it, but as he sat there, he realized he kind of wanted to keep it for a little bit. While it had originally been his, the two of you had made plenty of memories when it was under both his and your ownership. It was a little selfish of him, but he wanted to wear it to relive those times. Besides, you wouldn't miss it for the one day he wore it. So after his shower, he put the shirt on along with a hoodie because he was cold.

After a few hours had passed, he'd totally forgotten that he'd worn your shirt and went to hang out with you in your room as usual. He took off the hoodie at one point, and threw it aside on your bed. It wasn't long before you pointed out his choice of outfit. "Mammon, is that my shirt?" He froze mid-stretch.

"What? Nooo, of course it's not." Mammon shoved his arms back to his side, and crossed them over his chest.

"It's alright if it is." You laughed at his antics.

"I'm not falling for that again." He angled his body away from you, but kept stealing glances back at you to see if you were looking at him.

"By saying that, you know you just admitted that it was my shirt," you said.

"I did not! I'm not falling for yer mind tricks again. Besides, this isn't your shirt." Mammon didn't exactly understand what you'd just said, but either way, he refused to admit he'd borrow your shirt.

"You're a terrible liar." You knew him too well. You always saw right through him.

"Am not!" He vehemently protested.

"Whatever you say Mams. You can hang onto it for as long as you want. It's our shirt." Mammon's heart pounded at your words. The fact that anything could be both of yours made him nervous, but he liked it. More specifically, he liked you, but he'd never tell you that. Well, not directly. Maybe someday he would if you didn't figure out on your own. For now though, he was content with things how they were. Just you and him.

Can we please get nr 7 from the smut prompt list with Xaden?♥️

Because Of You Xaden Riorson X Reader

*Request: Can we please get nr 7 from the smut prompt list with Xaden?♥️ 

7) finding a somewhat private area at a fancy party to fuck (coat closet, empty office, secluded corner on the big balcony, hedge maze if we wanna get dramatic, etc) 

A/N: I hope this was the list you were referring to :) 

Synopsis: Reader meets Xaden and Garrick in her first year which is also her first year at Basgiath. Reader  knows she owes a lot to the pair for making it through her year.

Trigger Warnings: NSFW, female receiving in a not so private area, swearing 

Word Count: 1400

                                             Y/N POV

   You sat in a quiet corner of the dining hall as the rest of your squad and the other first year cadets celebrated making it through the first year at Basgiath You weren’t in the partying mood at least not until your boyfriend Xaden Riorson returned with his and your best friend Garrick Tavis from doing one of their supply runs they started a few weeks ago. 

     You sat there stirring your straw around in your lavender lemonade reminiscing your first year. You barely made it past the parapet. You almost slipped until a pair of soft hands landed on your waist, which now you knew were Xaden’s. You ended up being in the same squad with Garrick and Xaden becoming a close unexpected trio of friends. You owed so much to Xaden and Garrick, you knew that and you also knew they would never let you repay them. 

      You had always felt like a burden being the weakest amongst your squad. Honestly if you weren’t in the same squad as Xaden and Garrick your pretty sure your own squad mates would have broken the codex rule of not harming another in your squad by now; none the less you still had several close calls from cadets that were not in your squad; again thanks to Xaden and Garrick you were still here. 

    After threshing that's when your real feelings came through for Xaden. He had bonded with a mated dragon Sgaeyl. He often needed and still needs his own release from Sgaeyl’s and Tairn’s antics. You had also bonded with a female whose mate’s name was Cath. So you both needed that release but you, you're stubborn and told Xaden you weren’t doing any of this unless you talked about feelings first.  And you both did and on threshing you didn’t just bond a dragon but also lost your virginity to Xaden and you both have slept in each other’s arms ever since.  

             You felt a pair of arms wrap around your waist; being lost in your thoughts your hand immediately went to the dragger on your thigh that Xaden had given you this year on your birthday; well you won it in a playfully sparring match with him on your birthday.  You relaxed as you felt his familiar hand grasp around yours on top of your dagger. “Relax baby girl. Not party with the rest of our squad?” Xaden breathed in your ear. 

“Not in the mood. The two people I would have been partying with abandoned me.” At that you earned a chuckle from both of them. “Is that so Y/N?” Xaden teased playfully.  

   “Garrick, keep watch.” Xaden said as Garrick nodded and Xaden led you away from the dining hall filled with a bunch of cadets to a secluded alcove that separated the main dining hall from the academic wing.  

   “How do you want to celebrate? We could do it here or in my room.” You shook your head as you tugged onto the bottom of his shirt; his shadows starting to swirl to add more privacy in your inappropriate behaviors in basically the middle of a hallway. “I’ve been shoving down energy from Cath and Maeve since you left.”

   You whined and earned a deep throaty chuckle from Xaden as he slipped one of his calloused hands underneath your leathers and panties; “So so wet for me already; good girl.” He rasped into your ear and nibbled your earlobe. His fingers started to work magic on your clit by sliding two fingers up and down. You whimpered at the loss of his touch as he moved his hand away. 

     As you reached to grab for his zipper he swatted your hand away; his shadows still making their work in this alcove of the hallway. “No, not yet, baby girl. Tonight is about you and everything you’ve accomplished this year.” “I couldn’t half done more than half of what I accomplished without Garrick or yo-” He cut you off by his lips clasping aggressively onto yours as he bit playfully on the bottom of your swollen lip. “Xad.” You moaned a bit too loudly; “Sssh my love. We need to be quiet.” Xaden rasped, placing a hand softly on your mouth.

          You didn’t even realize when Xaden stripped you of your panties and leathers. Well that was until he was down on his knees his tongue inside of you as his shadows worked on your clit. Other shadows were making their way up your belly where you could feel that familiar now forming as they slipped under your bra and started twirling around your nipples. 

      Xaden’s tongue still worked wonders as he slipped it in and out of you ever so often sliding it all the way up to lick your clit. “Xad.” You moaned softly as you were still biting your lip to keep yourself from screaming his name already. “Yes my sweet beautiful girl?” He rasped against your clit. “I need you.” “You need me baby? How badly?” “Badly.” You whimpered as you reached for his waistband undoing his waistband which he allowed you to do this time.

        You went to stroke his very aroused and swollen member as he swatted your hand away. “Tonight is about you remember my girl? You can please me later. Right now I’m pleasing you.” He rasped into your neck placing both of his hands under your ass pushing your back against the wall and lined his swollen tip up to your entrance as you wrapped both of your legs around his waist ankles locking together on his back. 

       “Xay.” You whined as he teasingly kept rubbing his tip against your entrance and entering barely just his tip each time. “Yes, my baby girl.” He rasped and you damn well knew he knew exactly what he was doing.  “N-Need Need.” You tried to form your words as he was still just bracing your entrance; “Use your words baby girl.” “Need all of you need to cum.” You managed to mumble into his shoulder as you felt the knot in your belly ready to burst.  

     You had to bite softly into Xaden’s shoulder as you felt him insert all of himself into you; to stifle your loud moan. Between his teasing and Maeve’s and Cath’s antics you were ready to burst. It didn’t take more than a few solid good thrusts before you found yourself asking for release. “Xaddy please” “Do you need to cum my sweet baby girl.” “Yes.” You whimpered into his shoulder. “Cum with me baby girl. I’m there to.” He rasped as he aggressively took your lips into a deep kiss; you knew he did this to stifle any moans either of you had to hide from any unwanted passersby in the hallway. 

     You still managed to moan through the kiss as you both came undone. “Fuck babygirl, your so good to me.” He breathed into your neck as he was still inside of you. You and Xaden never worried too much about if he pulled out too much due to the contraceptive tea you both drank that the war college provided to each cadet.  

   Xaden’s shadow’s were still in strong swirls as he pulled out of you after a few minutes of being in each other’s embrace. He helped you get dressed again and you helped him. “We’ll clean up later, baby girl. No point when we aren’t finished here. I still need to hear you moan my name louder than we could in this hallway.” 

   You giggled softly as you stood on your tiptoes to kiss his cheek. “I love you.” You whispered softly into his ear before sliding back down. “I love you too, Y/N.” He said, wrapping a strong arm around your waist as you both stepped back into the main hallway. Xaden slapped a hand to Garrick’s back as we walked up behind him; “How about we go back to the party and get us some drinks.” Xaden smirked. “About damn time. Thought I was going to be out here another our playing guard for you two.” Garrick smirked as you shook your head and stifled a soft giggle as Xaden leaned down and kissed the top of your forehead and led you back to the dinning hall full of cadets that had no idea of the activity that just took place down the hall. 

A/N: I hope you all enjoyed this request! Smut is still not something I’m 100% confident in. However I’ll still welcome any and all requests for it and feedback as that is what helps one grow. :)

do you maybe know some taekook fics which include fluff ????

I wasn't sure if you meant exclusively fluffy fics or if a little angst was allowed so:

Exclusively fluff:

Stuffed Drumsticks and Cotton Candy Kisses by orphan_account (1/1 | 6,528 | M)

Taehyung is really good at precision-based games and Jeongguk is really good at strength-based games. Together, they amass a terrifying number of prizes before being kicked out of the carnival.

(meet cute)

Something Blue by starsign (1/1 | 11,077 | E)

When Jeongguk met Taehyung, he wasn't expecting to fall in love. But when his feelings blossomed into something new, he knew he had to do something special to confess. or wedding planner Jeongguk and florist Taehyung say "I love you" with flowers

(strangers to friends/fwb to lovers)

unexpectedly you by serenitaes (1/1 | 15,162 | NR)

“Oh my god,” Jeongguk mutters, spinning on his heel because he can’t look Taehyung in the eye right now otherwise he will combust. “What are you doing?” Taehyung giggles, tugging on his arm. “Turn back around, I wanna see your face.” “No,” Jeongguk gets out. “I’m good here.” “Jeongguk.” “What?” he mutters, still with his back to Taehyung. “Jeongguk.” Jeongguk huffs, slowly turning back around. He’s met with Taehyung’s wide-set grin, sparkly eyes and handsome as hell face that gets his neck warming further because Taehyung really is insanely handsome. “Did I make you blush?”

(single dads au)

the happiest place on earth by taecheeks (1/1 | 15,250 | E)

“Oh god, Kook. Don’t tell me you’re going to propose in front of the Cinderella Castle. That’s like, extra cheesy. The most cheese, even for you.” “No?” Jungkook laughs. Does it sound as nervous to Taehyung as it does to himself? “No, that’s corny. Definitely not.”

(established relationship, marriage proposal)

Hey Baby, Is Your Latin Name ‘Pterophyllum?’ Because You Look Like an Angel(fish) to Me. by laykive (littleheichou) (1/1 | 27,150 | T)

Fluff + angst:

Cinnamon Crisp by teatimetaemint (1/1 | 21,482 | M)

Jungkook needs his daily dose of cuddles and Taehyung likes to wear Jungkook's clothes. They don't care that alphas and omegas aren't supposed to be best friends.

(omegaverse)

how to take a fall by orphan_account (2/2 | 27,939 | G)

"I wanted it to be you. I wanted it to be you so badly." or, Taehyung and Jeongguk form a bond by chatting and exchanging semi-anonymous messages on Twitter, blissfully unaware that they are actually business competitors.

(identity porn, online romance)

Outlines by meganni (5/5 | 119,975 | M)

Simply put, Taehyung needs a boyfriend for his brother’s wedding – Jeongguk volunteers. (Featuring lots of phone calls, a healthy amount of practice, and unnecessary throwbacks and references).

(fake dating au)

First & Last Lines Tag Game

I was tagged by a few people in a couple different variations of this game. I've decided to do the one where I post both first & last lines, not just first. The idea is you do that from the last 10 things you posted and see if there are trends, then tag people. I for sure was tagged by @dear-massacre @akingnotaprincess @eevylynn. If you tagged me and I lost the email, my apologies. Anyway, here goes!

[palfriendpatine66]

Hello there Pal 💜

This is probably no surprise but I would love to see a snippet from you amazing Serial killer fic 🔪🖤 and nr 7 🙏

Will write for asks! (So glad I could count on you to prompt for this fic that has so regrettably been on the backburner as of late)

Anakin’s stomach plummeted at some subtle signal and he found himself suddenly alert and scanning the cafe, not knowing what he was looking for, on edge until he identified the threat.

He didn't move, suppressing his surge of panic when he zeroed onto the dark curls that used to haunt his every waking moment as well as fill his dreams. He knew, instantly, that he couldn’t make the mistake of drawing Obi-Wan’s attention.

"Anakin?" Obi-Wan’s eyes flitted over him in concern and Anakin let the adrenaline that coursed through him redirect his focus. "I said: are you ready to order?"

"Maybe let's just get something to go," Anakin suggested casually. "The sooner we leave the sooner we can get back."

Obi-Wan hummed and dropped Anakin’s hand as he stepped forward, a small smile playing on his lips. "In a hurry, are you, dear one?"

[delight-angelsbliss]

My AO3 2023 Wrapped

The post with the questions is here

Follow me below the cut to see my answers

Not all questions are relevant to my AO3 year, so some will be skipped

Fic you clicked on the most times this year (shows in History)

I went throguh 40 pages of history, so I'm not only sharing my top 1 clicked. You're getting a top 4 because the gap between nr 4 and nr 5 was huge. All top 4 have one thing in common. They're massive multichapter stories (or collections) that I began reading pre 2023. They're also all Star Wars

Number 4: edge of providence by adiduck (book_people), whimsicalimages. Visited 86 times

Status: Complete Words: 328,498 Chapters: 38/38

Anakin and Obi-Wan discover Kaminoo a few years earlier. It changes the course of the Galaxy. The main relationships is Obi-Wan & Anakin as well as Obi-Wan/Jango.

My favourite things about this story is seeing Obi-Wan be an excellent mentor to Anakin, the Sith plot unravel, and that the romantic relationship happens slowly, which to me makes it plausible

Number 3: The protégé by @spell-cleaver Visited 89 times

Status: Complete Words: 224,549 Chapters: 39/39

Sets up an alternative universe where Padmé joins Anakin when he turns on the Order and the Republic, Palpatine dies soon after, and Padmé becomes Empress Amidala. Follows Luke's journy in finding his family and finding himself.

What I like best about this story is that it's sprawling. The world feels huge and lived in. Naboo culture is explored beautifully. The relationships in the Skywalker family is another strong point. It's messy and real, but the love is always apperant.

Number 2: all the echoes fade by @reedroad Visited 93 times

Status: In progress. Words: 453,728 Chapters: 43/?

What if while searching for answers post the fall of the Empire, Luke fell into a parallel dimension where he and his sisters were raised by their Father? What if all the major characters from the films and animated shows were given room to shine? That's what this story does.

I love how big this story is and how at the same times, there is room for intimacy in how the relationships are shown. For example, the way Vader and Padmé's relationship is shown awed me time and again.

Numer 1: Prompted | Obikin by @intermundia. Visited 103 times

Status: "Complete" Words: 127,374 Chapters: 24/24

This is a compilation of short stories. Various AUs. From Modern. To various movie AUs. To Sith!Obi-Wan. All of them about Obi-Wan/Anakin. Maybe it's complete. Maybe more will be added.

To say why I like this is a bit tricker than the others. There are so many different things to be had here. All of it captures the essence of the relationship it is about, however, and to do it in so many packages is amazing.

2. First fic you clicked on this year

According to the History, I started the year with more of @spell-cleaver Fixing Your (Relation)Ship Since 5 AFE by SpellCleaver

3. First fic you Bookmarked this year

The Face of Antiquity by Lemon (lemon_sprinkles) for Cam_Watson

I have it marked as TBR. I've apparently not read it all year. Maybe this is how I should start my 2024

4. First fic you posted this year

A Roll of Destiny 

Status: Complete Words: 21,803  Chapters: 19/19

This is an RPG sheet story. I rolled out prompts and built a story about Obi-Wan and Darth Vader. Set after the Kenobi series. It was a very different writing expereince. Not knowing what was going to happen next made it more akin to reading. I could only plan out short chapters at a time.

5. Your most read Fandom this year

Star Wars. Hands down. I barely read anything else.

6. Your most written for Fandom this year

Same. Hard same. Star Wars.

7. Your most read pairing this year

Obi-Wan/Anakin

8. Your most written for pairing this year

Obi-Wan/Anakin

9. Most popular fic by hits you read this year

Oh dear. I need to go through all 40 pages again. Let me quickly see how many more questions are about my reading History. Oh. Read. I just checked if it was in my history. I'm not going through all those pages again. Most hits in my history of 2023 goes to

Bring Him to His Knees by Musyc Hits: 1,726,530

Going by the fics that were grouped with it, I was checking what was popular. I have not read this.

10. Most popular fic by hits you posted this year

Visualising Our Fantasies [Explicit Obikin Art] by Kefalion, SageGarnish Hits: 43,352 This is a landslide victory. My post with the second most hits has just over 2000. I guess people are starved for explicit art.

11. Most popular fic by kudos you posted this year

Same. But by a smaller margin. 1st place 410. 2nd place 200

12. Most popular fic by comment threads you posted this year

Same again. 29 for Visualising Our Fantasies [Explicit Obikin Art] and 10 for the second highest number of comment threads

13. Your personal favorite fic you read this year

Difficult. I've read a lot of good fic. One series that stands out to me is

Star Wars: Aberration by SiegeGunn

The main character is Cal Kesits, and it explores how things could go of it was converted to the dark side and became an Inquisitor.

By being a series, it explores widely varying povs and characters, though the larger stories in the series focus on Cal. Really cool.

14. Your personal favorite fic you posted this year

Another very difficult question. Let's go with this

Complete Your Training by Kefalion

While watching the Ahsoka Series, and before it too, I had theories. And right before the way they decided to take the story was revealed, I wrote this in a frenzy. It came together over a long time and was written down in hours. Really cool experience. And I think the story turned out great too. It's also the first time I've posted a podfic

15. Most recent fic you clicked on

Aside from the ones I've clicked on to answer these questions, it's

Obi-Wan Kenobi Is Too Polite to Tell You About His Huge Penis by kingdomvel The title alone is art

16. Most recent fic you Bookmarked

Forget Me Not by AFishNamedSushi

Summary: 5 years into Obi-Wan’s exile on Tatooine, a man calling himself Anakin Skywalker comes to call upon the old Lars homestead. This man certainly looks like Obi-Wan’s old Padawan, but he has no memory of the Clone Wars, his life with the Jedi, or Obi-Wan.

Status: Complete Words: 48,050  Chapters: 12/12

17. Most recent fic you posted

I added a chapter to the explicit art collection. Prior to that it's Complete your training from question 14

24. Least popular fic by hits you read this year

thy fearful symmetry @ossidae-passeridae Only 144 hits atm! Go give it some love! But mind the tags! Dae doesn't write for the faint of heart. It's star wars. It's a reaction to the Mandalorian season 3. It's just over 2k words. And it's clever and unsettling.

25. Least popular fic by hits you posted this year

Complete Your Training makes another apperance. Hits: 1,074

26. Least popular fic by kudos you posted this year

Complete Your Training again. Kudos: 71

27. Least popular fic by comment threads you posted this year

Not a tripple whammy for Complete your training. Story with the least comment threads goes to Take Care of Yourself, I Wish I Could 

It's the first story I've written with explicit sexual content, and it's more of that than plot. I see why people hold off commenting. But that trend was more obvious than I expected at the time of posting.

Status: complete Words: 7,095  Chapters: 1/1 Star Wars - Obi-Wan/Anakin

28. Number of fics you clicked on this year (20 per page)

I've gone on and on about my fourty pages. 39x20 + 11 makes it 791 fics I've clicked from January to the start of December

29. Number of Bookmarks you made this year (20 per page)

222 - What a nice number!

30 - 45 skip

It's mainly about popular fandoms and ships. I've already answered that. It's Star Wars and Obi-Wan/Anakin

46. A playlist of all the songs you used lyrics from to title fics this year

I've not used any songs for titles. I have so many WIPs of this variety though. Next year maybe!

47. Shout out an incomplete fic you read this year

See you around, Jedi by PaperCraneCastles

Let's go with this. It's Cal Kestis/Boba Fett.

This is what I wrote when I bookmarked it: delightful. The characterisations are so fun. Boba is more than hot. He wears his competency well.

Words: 7,602 Chapters: 3/4

48. Oldest fic you read this year

Every so often I visit my old fandoms. This is from such a time. Updated Okt 2012 we have a Mass Effect fic THE STEPS AND THE SHORE by spicyshimmy

But holy wow did I almost only read fics from 2023 and 2022. Seeing 201x was frighteningly rare. I think it's because I've read so much Star Wars fic over three years. Only new things are new to me.

49. Your most posted Additional Tag this year

four letters: H-A-T-E (Wei Wuxian's POV), by Edith343redwood

What if the first night they met was rewritten?

Four letters. One word.

that's all it took to send Wei Wuxian spiralling.

They say words hold power, but what can words do?

If a word could be rewritten into a story, what would it be?

Possible works 1 - Ghost Child, by Hauntcats

Wei Ying returns to the day Jiang Fengmian found him and decides to do something different.

None of these are very Jiang Cheng friendly. I'm not even sure if they are Lan friendly. At least one of them is nicer to Jiang Yanli.

Explicit:

The Best Laid Plans, by Admiranda, Rynne (11th in a series)

After a long day traveling, Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian just want to have a bath together. Those simple intentions don't last -- and neither does the bathtub.

and we can be anything, by Imatableclock (2nd in a series)

"You’re so good at this, Lan Zhan,” Wei Ying says, panting.

From the look on Lan Zhan’s face, she probably considers it an offence that Wei Ying is still speaking. Wei Ying is very happy to learn this about Lan Zhan.

---

Two lesbians in one apartment, and their firsts.

Microphones and Camera Reels, by UseMyMuse

Wei Ying and Lan Wangji have been happily married for five years, their careers are at an all time high, and they really couldn't be happier. Purely by chance, the public is unaware of their relationship, and Lan Zhan's fans are severely misjudging his horny glare for hate and they decide to ban together to get rid of the thorn in their favorite star's side.

One Day We're Loving Each Other, by sami (2nd in a series, 2 chapters, reread)

The wedding is lovely, the bride is very beautiful, and Jiang Yanli comes to live at the Unclean Realm.

Mature:

Blood of the Black Earth, by wirevix (15 chapters)

By the time Jiang Cheng and his small rescue party managed to clear away the rubble at the cave's collapsed entrance, it was too late.

Wei Wuxian had already gone cold.

The Moon Reflected Upon Two Springs, by Rubberduckieassassin (🔒)

In many ways, this part of Wen Ning’s existence has felt like winter. Winter is the most Yin of all the seasons. It is a time of stillness and quiet reflection. Remembering how to ‘live’ again as best he could.

Possible Works 2 - Numb, by Hauntcats

Wei Ying returns to his teenage years, but can't shake the memories of what he has lost.

The Tamed, by pj_moonchild (7 chapters)

Wei Wuxian believes he can change the past for the better if he never misbehaved and remained considerate of the Jiang Yunmeng Sect the whole time. At the same time, he sacrifices meeting Lan Zhan but inevitably, they do meet again once the Wen Clan decides to take over the other sects.

Unfinished

I'd Give You The Moon, by Teadrenched

Wei Wuxian is very smart, but you wouldn't think that if you saw him now, lost alone in the woods at night and being choked by a witch. Despite his predicament, all Wei Wuxian can think about is how pretty the witch looked, and that he didn't know boys were allowed to wear dresses (but after seeing Lan Wangji, definitely thinks more should)

Wei Ying finds fem witch Lan Zhan in the woods and goes to bother him whenever Madame Yu has been a bit too much

Friday Nights, by Autumn_leaf101

“A-Cheng there is someone I would like you to meet with this Friday. He is the successor to Lan Academies. I’ve spoken with his uncle and we shall see if you both are suitable for each other.” Said Yu-Jiang ZiYuan, with a tone of clarity and finality.

“Yes A-Niang” Having expected this he felt relieved to get it over with.

“The Lan Academies huh? The heirs are quite the handsome duo.” A cheeky Cangse Sanren pointed out. “Isn’t the younger, the pouty one you’re always talking about A-Xian?! Oh, and the older, he has the sweetest smile, doesn’t he?” She continued an excited rant, met with an equally excited Wei Wuxian.

As the conversation steered to the rumours of Jiang Cheng’s potential betrothed, he wanted to know what was being said but no amount of effort could help him concentrate. His only focus; convincing himself that a lifetime of neglect and passive-aggressive companionship wouldn’t be too bad, or maybe, just maybe he could love and be loved the way a husband and wife are meant to.

Mo Xuanyu is the hastily legitimized daughter of Jin Guangshan.

Wei Wuxian wakes up in her body the day before her wedding.

the long way back home, by Misila (🔒)

Wei Ying always knew he was the single discordant note in the Jiang household. That was why, after graduating from university, he didn’t return home. With him gone, Yu Ziyuan wouldn’t have anyone to compare her son to, and Jiang Fengmian wouldn’t have to keep avoiding his own family to prevent further conflict.

…Right?

(Seven years later, married to the man of his life and with a four year-old son, Wei Ying returns to his hometown and tries to reconnect with his siblings and befriend his nephew; but, most of all, he struggles to figure out what’s wrong with his brother and how to help him, despite Jiang Cheng not wanting to have anything to do with him anymore.)

Lupine, by Anonymous

It’s never been an option before—to see Wei Ying after that dream. Typically, Lan Wangji jolts awake in bed, alone with his quaking limbs, and resigns himself to reading or meditating until morning.

But here in Qinghe, dawn is far away, and Wei Ying’s room is so, so close.

The Second Hand Unwinds, by trulywicked (🔒)

Sent back in time without his husband after a night hunt gone wrong, Lan Wangji is determined to ensure that Wei Wuxian’s safety and in the process hopefully mitigate, if not prevent, the war.

Through marriage among other things.

Heart of the Beast, by WaitForTheSnitch

“Wei Ying?” Nie Mingjue prompted him gently. “Where are your parents?”

“They went on a night hunt,” Wei Ying said, a bit evasively.

“Your parents are cultivators?” Da-ge asked in surprise. “Did they leave you here while they hunted? When did they go on their night hunt?”

“Four summers ago,” Wei Ying said a bit uncomfortable.

“Four summers ago,” Nie Mingjue repeated. “What are your parents’ names?”

“My mama is Cangse Sanren and my baba is Wei Changze,” Wei Ying told him, and recognition registered in Nie Mingjue’s eyes.

“Wei Ying,” Nie Mingjue said, sounding a bit regretful, “Your parents aren’t coming back.”

Or, Nie Mingjue and Nie Huaisang run into Wei Ying while in Yiling and decide to bring him home. And it changes everything.

Dreams of Paradise, by Hauntcats

This on begins during the siege of the Burial Mound. Wei Ying is trying to destroy or nullify the tiger seal before anyone else can get it. The results don’t work out quite how he thought they would. His essence is trapped in between time where he witnesses different scenes of the lives of those he cares about. (The 13? 16? Years when he was dead.)

Then he wakes up in a place he didn't expect.

Once again, not Jiang friendly. If you don't like that, please, don't read.

Tragedy That Befall Upon Us, by xoxoholic

"Hey! What's this?" Jin Ling yelled, pointing at the glowing, black and red orb. Jiang Wanyin marched over to Jin Ling, but the young Jin sect leader had already touched the orb.

"Jin Ling!" Jiang Wanyin yelled in anger. If his golden core was not sealed, then Zidian would be cackling furiously.

"..Oops?" Jin Ling sheepishly smiled as he hid behind his friends. Lan Jingyi laughed at Jin Lings predicament while Lan Sizhui sighed. Ouyang Zizhen laughed with Lan Jingyi in amusement before he was hit in the back of his head by his father.

【银 劍 探 心】| Silver Jian Seeking Hearts, by stiltonbasket

“A ghost bridegroom?” Wei Wuxian asks, when he receives his latest night-hunting assignment from Uncle Jiang. “Have women been going missing?”

If brides have been going missing, this is the first that Wei Wuxian is hearing about it; which is strange, because the systematic kidnapping of brides should have quickly been recognized as spirits’ work and reported as such to the nearest cultivation sect as soon as possible.

“Three women and ten men have gone missing so far,” his uncle tells him. “Jinshan town is out of our jurisdiction, and the records say there hasn’t been a hunt in the area since before my grandfather’s time. But no one from Jinshan thought to report the disappearances until today, so the victims must be long dead by now.”

Four hundred years after the Sunshot Campaign, a reincarnated Wei Wuxian dresses himself in wedding red to defeat the ghost of a bridegroom.

Deep within the forests of Jinshan Mountain, the mourning calamity Yin Jian Tan Xin waits to marry his beloved.

What If..... Jiang Cheng Understood?, by ToxicAngel13

It didn't take a genius to realize just what had happened in the time that Wei Wuxian was gone. Not with that damn ribbon on his wrist and Jiang Cheng was not going to let his brother be taken advantage of!

Or a tale in which one insight sparks a world of change.

My 2023 Fic Fest Participation

One of the best parts of this fandom is the many many fests that we have! I love seeing all the creative themes that this fandom comes up with to inspire more fics year after year! Thank you to everyone that modded fests and created spaces that inspired some amazing works this year!

Number of fests: 5

Numbers of fics: 5 out of the 7 fics I posted were written for fests, and I also created a fanfic trailer for big bang!

Favorite fest/fic: @wankersday has been a staple for 5 whole years now! I've written every year and always look forward to reading the wide variety of fics that everyone comes up with. This year I wrote a short one inspired by Louis starting his world tour A Cure for First Show Nerves.

Fests you would love to do again this year (if they come back): I always love @1dtrickortreatfest every year! I've been challenging myself to write more spooky/scary ficlets for it each year.

Tagging: @disgruntledkittenface @reminiscingintherain @fallinglikethis @louandhazaf @allwaswell16 @lululawrence @uhoh-but-yeah-alright @beelou @kingsofeverything @jacaranda-bloom and anyone else that wants to share!

A list of my creations and reflections is under the cut!

A Cure for First Show Nerves for @wankersday E, <1k, Harry/Louis | Canon Compliant, FITFWT

I was very busy buying a house and moving during the first half of the year, so this is the first full fic I wrote and posted in 2023. I was struggling to come up with anything to write for the fest. Louis' tour started a few days before the fest and the pictures from that inspired this little oneshot just in time for me to add it to the collection!

No (Birth) Control for Knot in My Name multi-fandom event E, 3k, Harry/Louis | A/B/O, Breeding Kink

I saw this event on tumblr, billed as a way to feed AI learning with tons of A/B/O content, and happened to be working on this fic at the time. I was happy to contribute to the anti-AI cause and added my fic to the collection.

Ghosted for @1dtrickortreatfest NR, 666, Harry/Louis | Ghost Story

This one is based on a tweet I saw on tumblr. I saved it to my prompt folder a while back, and when I started looking for halloween/scary prompts, it jumped out to me. Based on the comments it looks like it was much more angst than spook, but I love the way it turned out nonetheless.

Chaos for @louisrarepairfest E, 100, Louis/Bodyguard | Drabble, Implied Dom/sub

I wanted so badly to write a long smutty fic with Louis and one of his bodyguards. But writing was so difficult this year, and writing smut was near impossible. I tried so many times to start this fic, but it wasn't getting anywhere. Putting a hard 100 word limit on it challenged me to create something with the exact emotion I hoped to capture in a longer fic, and I am still floored by how well it turned out!

Baking Memories for @louisrarepairfest T, 2k, Louis/Jack Cochrane | Christmas Baking Shenanigans

I could not stop listening to The Snuts after seeing them live in Minneapolis. Always was my top song of the year. I started to go down the rabbit hole of videos they've shared on youtube. And then this happened. Writing fics where Louis is forced into the kitchen is my favorite thing.

Art for take me back, take me back by @panye for @onedirectionbigbang

I created a trailer and moodboard for this big bang fic! There were so many cool locations and visuals used throughout the fic, so building a trailer to hype the story and fitting it to San Fransisco by Niall was a lot of fun!
