Excited to share my submission for the Gallavich Tropes Challenge!

Thank you @its-a-queer-thing for the opportunity to think this story up - this was so much fun 💗 My tropes are: * Lawyer/Client * Jock/Nerd * Party AU (Happy 🎃 !)

And a big thank you to my betas @sweetbee78 & @ian-galagher for eyes and comments and help!

"Running Into You" on AO3

Summary: After spending ten years in a fake, but comfortable, marriage, the time has come for Mickey Milkovich to seek out a divorce lawyer, to gain back the freedom he’s been craving since he was a teenager. After the last bit of paperwork is filed, he can finally admit to himself that he wouldn’t mind getting to know the attractive lawyer who’s been helping him, dorky ties and all.

What he doesn’t know yet, is that his lawyer’s had his sights set on him since his high school junior varsity baseball days.

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

I love a character raised to be a weapon as much as the next guy. But what really gets me is a character raised to be a shield. Who can’t fathom being needed—or even being wanted— beyond keeping others safe. Who believe they are alive only to insure someone doesn’t die. no matter the cost. Characters who self-sacrifice not because they think they deserve it, but because no one else does deserve it, and it’s their job to protect.

Characters who’ve been told that’s why your important. Your worth something because this other person/ thing is important, and you are here solely to keep them safe.

Bonus points if it’s not a legitimate job they’ve been given. Maybe at one point it was, but now that they are free from it, they haven’t given up that mentality. No one is forcing or asking them to do this, but they need to. They need to in order to be deserving.

reblog if you believe fanfics are as valid as books that were published and sold by authors who write as their main careers. I'm trying to prove a point
