#wildemaven blind drabbles

[wildemaven]

My sweet Heidi! Congrats again on your 1K bby!! You deserve it and even more!! I was wondering if I could put in a blind drabble request with my love Frankie and numbers 22 and 301. I’m so proud of everything you’re doing and am so glad to call you one of my best buds. 💜💜💜

Meet Cute in the Garden Section

Wildemaven 1k Celebration / 1k Masterlist Pairing: Frankie Morales x Reader

Warnings: 18+ Blog; No warnings, just fluff!

Prompts: "This doesn't smell like roses." / "It was nice meeting you."

You don’t mean to stare. Actually you do, because it’s the cutest thing you’ve seen in a while. 

Between reading the tiny plant labels and filling your cart with an array of plants you had been looking forward to purchasing for your growing garden, you can’t help but notice a Dad and his daughter an aisle over doing some planting shopping of their own. 

He seems a little lost, removing his tattered ball cap every once in a while to comb through his chestnut locks, as he examines each plant his daughter holds up to him. His furrowed brow gives you the impression he doesn’t shop for plants often. 

As you continue your browsing, you find yourself in the same section as the cute shopping duo. In closer proximity you decide the Dad is quite cute with how his eyes crinkle when he smiles at something his daughter is saying and you think you see a hint of a dimple through his patchy beard. 

“This one is cute too Papa! Look at it.” The sweet little girl, who looks to be around 5 or 6 years old, says to her Dad holding up the tiny potted plant. “Can we get this one too?”

He takes the plant from her tiny hands, squinting as if he either forgot his glasses at home or thinks he doesn’t need them and continues struggling through reading small print. 

“I don’t know baby, I can’t really tell what the little symbol is, if this one is saying full sun or partial— maybe no sun?? This one might be a little more difficult to take care of.” He tells her as he goes to place it back in its designated spot. 

“Actually, those are pretty easy to take care of— perfect starter plants too.” You say, giving him a reassuring smile so as to not come off as some creepy stranger in the garden department. “Sorry, didn’t mean to bother you, just thought you should know.”

“Thanks— thank you. As you might have guessed, I know nothing about plants, or gardening for that matter.” He says, laughing at confessing his lack of knowledge about plants to a complete stranger. There’s definitely a dimple, way more prominent when he laughs. 

“That’s okay, we all start somewhere. So far, all of your choices are great ones, you shouldn’t have too much trouble getting things going.” You tell him as you glance over their selections. 

“So there’s hope for us then?”

“Definitely!”

“Papa! This doesn't smell like roses!” The sweet little girl, who looks like a copy and paste version of her father, declares while shoving another plant into their nearly filled cart. 

“That’s because it’s a succulent, no real scent to them.” You say, and guessing by her confused expression, she doesn’t know what one is. “It’s like a cactus, but none of those pokey needles on them. They’re fun to take care of because they don’t need a lot of water to grow and love the sun, very low maintenance.”

“That’s just what our garden needs, low maintenance.”

He doesn’t have a ring, but you're aware not everyone wears one these days, so you use your sleuth skills to ask about his marital status so you don’t over step any sort of boundaries. 

“Well, I’m sure your wife will be happy with everything you two have picked out.”

“Oh, we’re not married— I have her on the weekends and she’s been begging to plant a garden since she has one at her mom’s place. And I have no clue what I’m doing so I’m just guessing as we go.” 

Cute, and single. 

“I’m Frankie and this is Isabella.”

You give him your name and you continue to talk him through his gardening hesitations, really soaking up everything little detail you’re sharing with him— wishing he had something to take notes knowing he’ll probably forget most of it by the time they get home. 

“It was nice meeting you. I hope you both have fun and I wish you the best of luck in your gardening ventures.” Realizing you had definitely overstayed your welcome, but wishing you could chat more with Frankie— and not just about plants and their needs. 

You give them both a friendly wave goodbye, turning back to your cart to make your way to pay for your own plants, looking forward to an afternoon of planting and deciding what to make for dinner. 

You had finished loading your car with your collection of flowers and a few bags of potting soil, when you hear your name being called, and turn to see Frankie and Isabella walking in your direction. 

“Hey! More gardening questions?” 

“Yeah, I mean— not really. I was wondering, umm if I could maybe get your number. In case I were to have any questions about garden stuff, I could text you or call if you prefer— or I could turn back around and head to my car and we can pretend this lame attempt at me asking to see you again didn’t happen.” He sounds nervous, his one hand firmly tucked into the pocket of his jeans and the other securely around Isabella’s tiny hand— his irresistible smile and charming personality has really won you over. 

“I’d love to give you my number— for gardening and stuff.”

inspired by @the-blind-assassin-12 i joined her march fic madness 2024 challenge, with the goal to read and reblog 63 fics in 31 days.

i've read waaaayyyy more than that, but i'll keep going until march is over and add every new fic to this list later:) i'm also thinking about starting a weekly rec list of fics that i've read, i'll obviously still reblog them individually but i think it would be nice to have them in one place, since things can easily get lost on the dash.

in an attempt to keep this somewhat organized, i'll sort this list by character. i love every fic on here, but i do read some dark shit, so please pay attention to the tags/warnings and decide for yourself if something might not be for you <3

March Fic Madness: Reading List

Thanks again to @the-blind-assassin-12 for creating the March Fic Madness challenge!

I've already posted my stats for the challenge over on this post, but here's a list of what I read!

I find that, for me, lists without any description end up leading to decision paralysis/having to click a lot of links without knowing where you're going, so I've tried to provide a super brief summary of each fic as a taster (obvs more info is provided by the author on each fic’s actual page). If you're an author whose work is listed here and feel I've misrepresented your fic, let me know and I can change the little blurb, it's obviously not my intention to do your work dirty! <3

[intheorangebedroom]

Pleased to meet you (a fairy tale)

Series, complete.

Summary: You meet Frankie Morales. Twice.

A 20-year-old French student, you're spending the summer of 1999 in New York with your best friend. When she drags you to a party in Brooklyn, you meet an aspiring pilot and the two of you spark an instant and intense connection. Separated by unfortunate events, you waste the next 15 years of your life longing for what you've lost, only to meet him again when your new boyfriend Benny introduces you to his best friend.

Pairing: Frankie Morales x Gabrielle Tourneur (OFC)/French fem!Reader with a dash of Ben Miller x Gabrielle Tourneur (OFC)/French fem!Reader

Written in reader format but Reader is an OFC. There are sparse but still present physical descriptions, she is French and has a thorough background, and a name.

Rating: Explicit 🔞

Note: In 2023, I will stop apologising. Maybe. And anyway, I make no excuse. I'm in love with this pilot and obsessed by this movie so I'm making it everyone’s problem. This story is nothing if not a self-indulgent exploration of the soulmates ideal. Expect a lot of angst, and smut.

Every chapter is explicit and you should be 18+ to read this. The American university system remains a mystery to me, I googled "how to become a US Army pilot", and visas are not a thing in this AU. English is not my first language, but one I adore.

Welcome to the orange bedroom, hope you'll enjoy 🧡

… Never Really Ends in Vegas

Wildemaven 1k Celebration

Pairing: Jack Daniels x Reader

Warnings: 18+ Blog; Allusions to sex; no actual act, annoyance of a mustached man, talks of divorce, accidental marriage

A/N: Sweet Sil had picked Ezra, but I’ve never seen Prospect and didn’t feel like I could write for him with out knowing his character— so she gave me free reign on the character

Prompts: "I can't smile at you, I'm mad." / "I'm annoyed, to say it mildly."

Part 1

“This was the last time, no more!” Your breath short ragged puffs, your mind slowly regaining a grip on the reality of the situation at hand. 

Wanting to escape this musky sex filled apartment and the mustached man whom you can’t seem to shake, you decide to quit your stalling, throwing the wrinkled top sheet from your dewy, depleted body to make a break for the door. And you almost make it out of the bed, until two large arms are wrapping around your naked torso, pulling you back against a warm broad chest.

“See, you say that every time Darlin’, and each time I have a hard time believing’ ya.” Jack murmurs into the crook of your neck. “When you gonna admit you like this thing we got goin’ on?”

“There’s nothing to admit. It happened a few times and now it’s done— no more.” Your voice is laced with irritation, fighting the urge to stay and succumb to his convincing ways. 

“Do I sense some anger there, Darlin’?” He noses at your cheek, a kiss to your temple, his large hand tipping your face back to him, pressing a lazy kiss to your already kissed-out lips. 

"I'm annoyed, to say it mildly.” You mutter against his plush pout. “I have to go, one of us has to make enough money to pay for this annulment.” 

You extricate yourself from his arms, grabbing the clothes thrown about the room, pulling them on one by one, fixing your appearance in the mirror that hangs above his dresser. 

“Hey, how ‘bout you give me one of those gorgeous smiles of yours before you leave, let Jack know yer not mad at him for forgetting again.” He stares affectionately at your reflection from where he’s still laying in bed, propped up on one elbow and bedsheets draped over his hips. 

“I can't smile at you, I'm mad." Grabbing your purse and keys from the dresser, the sound of your heels clicking against the hardwood floors as you head for the front door. “You better be at the courthouse tomorrow, Jack!”

Leaning over the edge of the bed to watch your retreating form, he shouts before you’re able to slam the door shut, “Same time and place next week, Darlin’?”

Part 3

[wildemaven]

Moodboard for a plot bunny that’s been bouncing around the last week… one im actually excited to write hopefully soon

[wildemaven]

Last June I had celebrated 1k followers. I did a fun little thing where you would send me numbers and I would write a little blind drabble for a P character of your choice… well then I dropped the ball and never finished them.

I have quite a few still in my inbox and I want to still hold up my end of the deal. I lost the prompt list I was going off of, but I am going to still write blind drabbles for what I have. I plan to slowly work through them in between breaks from writing Strangers, until I’ve finished them all.

Sorry for being so lame about it!!

[wildemaven]

You had to know I'd go with the blind drabble, lol....so let's say 8 & 20 and my most favorite dumb cowboy 🤠😜

What Happens in Vegas…

Wildemaven 1k Celebration

Pairing: Jack Daniels x Reader

Warnings: Alcohol, Las Vegas, Accidental marriage

Prompts: "How do you become accidently married?" / “I preferred not to be disturbed”

The neon lights slowly begin to wane, the sun slowly rising and its golden rays blending into the colors that wash over the City of Sin. 

Sleep is still crusted to the corners of your bleary eyes as you manage to sit up. A bed. But not your room. 

There’s a heaviness that’s settled in your stomach, the remnants of the copious amount of alcohol you’re vaguely remembering from mere hours ago. Hungover and not in the room you had checked into. 

You scrub your hand over your tired face, a coolness stings against your warm skin. 

Glancing at your left hand, a new heaviness clings to your finger— a ring. 

As panic begins to fight against your urge to expel the contents of your stomach, there’s a groan coming from the other side of the bed. 

A mustached man, so effortlessly draped over the pillows beside you, begins to stir. 

“Fuck! Jack, wake up!” You say as you try to shake him awake. 

“Darlin’, I’m gonna to need you to calm down a bit. Head’s hurtin’ real good this mornin’”

You don’t waste any time and grab for his hand, a matching gold ring sits snuggly on his ring finger. 

“Jack, wake the fuck up! I think we accidentally got married at some point last night?!”

He groans, an eye peaking open as he lifts his hand to get a view of the ring for himself. “How do you become accidentally married?” Placing his hand down on your bare thigh, his thumb drawing lazy circles over your pebbled skin, looking completely unbothered. 

“If I knew I wouldn’t be freaking out. This was supposed to be a quick in and out job Jack! Now this! What the fuck are we going to do?” 

Your assignment to collect leads in Las Vegas has turned into a night of blowing off steam with your partner Agent Whiskey, Jack as he prefers you to call him off the clock. 

But at some point between the rounds of Old Fashions and the tipsy flirting that followed, you’re now sharing a bed with your partner— husband. 

“Look Darlin, we’ll sleep on it a bit more— let these hangovers settle down. Then we can talk about it with clear minds.” He grumbles as he turns on his side, fluffing the pillow under his head as he does. “First thing you should know about your husband, I’m cranky on zero sleep— I preferred to not be disturbed.”

“Jack!”

Part 2

[wildemaven]

The blind drabbles are such a brilliantly fun idea!!! I'd like to please request #48 and #119 for the sexy Javier Peña 🚬👖🥃

Stolen Glances and Secret Bets

Wildemaven 1k Celebration

Pairing: Javier Peña x Reader

Warnings: language, but other wise none really

Prompts: "It's not what you think it is." / "Let's forget any of this ever happened."

It’s not ideal, but with how busy it’s been at the embassy, you make do with the space you’re given— today, it’s a cramped utility closet. 

On the outside, it’s all paperwork, stake outs and shit office coffee— but within these four walls, time doesn’t really seem to exist. 

Surrounded by secrecy and the staticky vibration of shared breaths fuse together with the clanking of the metal shelf that is digging into your back. 

“I’ve missed you so much, Hermosa.” Javier confesses, his husky voice cracking as his lips move keenly against yours. 

Your hands, acutely aware of your limited time, hastily follow the line of buttons up his strong chest, settling once they reach the tautness of his neck. 

“Javi— we have to be quick! Oh—“ You pleaded for more, knowing that the minute you leave this room, it’s back to stolen glances and blasé appearances. 

“You have to be quiet, someone’s going to hear—“

The turning of the doorknob sends a chill down your spine, Javier and you both turning towards the creaking of the door opening. 

Javier trying his best to hide you with his broad body, as light begins to pour into the dark room, your face nestling in close to his shoulder as suspense builds in your chest. 

A shadowed face is staring back into the darkness, the flicking of a switch prompting the overhead light to reveal a surprised familiar face. 

“No shit! I thought he was fuckin’ with me when Johnson said he saw you two walk in here.” Steve’s shocked drawl permeates the small room. 

“It's not what you think it is." Javier said, hoping Steve would be dumb enough to believe him. 

Javier, your parter and boyfriend, and you had spent the last 2 years keeping your relationship under wraps from work, friends— and Steve. 

“No, it’s exactly what I think it is!” Clearly not as dumb as expected. "Look, let's forget any of this ever happened. Ambassador needs the three of us in her office— I’ll give you two a minute to calm down.”

Steve retreats from the closet, closing the door to the outside world. 

“Fuck— I guess we better get back out there.” Javier kissing you softly, his plush lips washing away any hint of anxiety that lingered. “We’ll finish this later, at home.”

The swinging of the door reopening draws both of your attention back to where Steve is leaning into the doorway. 

“Also— I’m gonna need 50 bucks!” Steve warned with a snarky smile. 

“What for?” Javier’s brows furrowed at the demand. 

“I owe Connie for the bet we made. She said you two were fucking— and you’re gonna be the one to pay her.” He winks and clicks his tongue, before shutting the door behind him.

Wildemaven 1000 Follower Celebration

*CLOSED*

1k Celebration Masterlist

1000 lovely people!

When I joined 2 years ago, I was hoping to just slink through this hellsite undetected, never any real intention of doing anything more than reading and staring at pretty pictures of P.

Now I’m in deep with this silly space. I’m so grateful for all the connections and friendships I’ve made. I’ve revived my love for reading through the amazing fics shared here and found the courage to write some of my own.

Thanks for all the laughs and love!! I appreciate you all!

Headcanons: Send me a Pedro Character and a headcanon, and I’ll share my thoughts on them.

Moodboards: Send me a Pedro Character and a theme, I’ll put together a mini moodboard.

Song Recs: Send me a Pedro or an excerpt from a fic of mine, and I’ll a song that reminds me of it. Or send me a song and I’ll let you know which character it fits best / I’ll be making a playlist of all the songs used

Blind Drabbles: Pick 2 numbers, 1-375, and a Pedro character. I’ll use the two blind prompts to write a little drabble with your chosen character. (Big thanks to @gnpwdrnwhiskey for this idea)

Asks Me Anything!! Send random thoughts, asks about anything I’ve written, tell me an anonymous secret, literally anything!!

I’ll be taking these requests until 6/25. I might be slow to responding to them as I still work through writing Chapter Six of Sweet Creature, but I’ll post them as I finish them.

Thank you for all the support and kindness you’ve shown me!

[kirsteng42]

My sweet Heidi! Congrats again on your 1K bby!! You deserve it and even more!! I was wondering if I could put in a blind drabble request with my love Frankie and numbers 22 and 301. I’m so proud of everything you’re doing and am so glad to call you one of my best buds. 💜💜💜

Between reading the tiny plant labels and filling your cart with an array of plants you had been looking forward to purchasing for your growing garden, you can’t help but notice a Dad and his daughter an aisle over doing some planting shopping of their own. 

He seems a little lost, removing his tattered ball cap every once in a while to comb through his chestnut locks, as he examines each plant his daughter holds up to him. His furrowed brow gives you the impression he doesn’t shop for plants often. 

As you continue your browsing, you find yourself in the same section as the cute shopping duo. In closer proximity you decide the Dad is quite cute with how his eyes crinkle when he smiles at something his daughter is saying and you think you see a hint of a dimple through his patchy beard. 

“This one is cute too Papa! Look at it.” The sweet little girl, who looks to be around 5 or 6 years old, says to her Dad holding up the tiny potted plant. “Can we get this one too?”

He takes the plant from her tiny hands, squinting as if he either forgot his glasses at home or thinks he doesn’t need them and continues struggling through reading small print. 

“I don’t know baby, I can’t really tell what the little symbol is, if this one is saying full sun or partial— maybe no sun?? This one might be a little more difficult to take care of.” He tells her as he goes to place it back in its designated spot. 

“Actually, those are pretty easy to take care of— perfect starter plants too.” You say, giving him a reassuring smile so as to not come off as some creepy stranger in the garden department. “Sorry, didn’t mean to bother you, just thought you should know.”

“Thanks— thank you. As you might have guessed, I know nothing about plants, or gardening for that matter.” He says, laughing at confessing his lack of knowledge about plants to a complete stranger. There’s definitely a dimple, way more prominent when he laughs. 

“That’s okay, we all start somewhere. So far, all of your choices are great ones, you shouldn’t have too much trouble getting things going.” You tell him as you glance over their selections. 

“So there’s hope for us then?”

“Definitely!”

“Papa! This doesn't smell like roses!” The sweet little girl, who looks like a copy and paste version of her father, declares while shoving another plant into their nearly filled cart. 

“That’s because it’s a succulent, no real scent to them.” You say, and guessing by her confused expression, she doesn’t know what one is. “It’s like a cactus, but none of those pokey needles on them. They’re fun to take care of because they don’t need a lot of water to grow and love the sun, very low maintenance.”

“That’s just what our garden needs, low maintenance.”

He doesn’t have a ring, but you're aware not everyone wears one these days, so you use your sleuth skills to ask about his marital status so you don’t over step any sort of boundaries. 

“Well, I’m sure your wife will be happy with everything you two have picked out.”

“Oh, we’re not married— I have her on the weekends and she’s been begging to plant a garden since she has one at her mom’s place. And I have no clue what I’m doing so I’m just guessing as we go.” 

Cute, and single. 

“I’m Frankie and this is Isabella.”

You give him your name and you continue to talk him through his gardening hesitations, really soaking up everything little detail you’re sharing with him— wishing he had something to take notes knowing he’ll probably forget most of it by the time they get home. 

“It was nice meeting you. I hope you both have fun and I wish you the best of luck in your gardening ventures.” Realizing you had definitely overstayed your welcome, but wishing you could chat more with Frankie— and not just about plants and their needs. 

You give them both a friendly wave goodbye, turning back to your cart to make your way to pay for your own plants, looking forward to an afternoon of planting and deciding what to make for dinner. 

You had finished loading your car with your collection of flowers and a few bags of potting soil, when you hear your name being called, and turn to see Frankie and Isabella walking in your direction. 

“Hey! More gardening questions?” 

“Yeah, I mean— not really. I was wondering, umm if I could maybe get your number. In case I were to have any questions about garden stuff, I could text you or call if you prefer— or I could turn back around and head to my car and we can pretend this lame attempt at me asking to see you again didn’t happen.” He sounds nervous, his one hand firmly tucked into the pocket of his jeans and the other securely around Isabella’s tiny hand— his irresistible smile and charming personality has really won you over. 

“I’d love to give you my number— for gardening and stuff.”
