14 + 97 with prongsfoot >:))) (if you want to ofc! <33)

Thanks for the ask, anon! 🩷 This one took me some time to think over. :D Super interesting tropes! It's an AU where James and Sirius didn't go to Hogwarts together but Sirius went to Durmstrang.

Bodyguard AU + Time Travel

Auror James Potter is in his late 30s, and the Ministry has finally captured Sirius Black who is claimed to be a notorious dark wizard. Black has refused to confess to his crimes or in fact to say anything to anyone who is trying to interrogate him. He doesn't even give in to Verisetarum. However, his reaction to James is strange when they first meet. He finally speaks. Gives him an address.

James goes there to find a timeturner. Something goes wrong and he goes back in time 20 years. He returns to the Ministry and explains what happened but doesn’t mention Sirius Black by name or give the officials his own real name because he's a bit suspicious and time travel can mess things up anyway. They will try to find a way to send James back to his time but in the meanwhile he is assigned to take care of an important family's heir who has been a target of a murder attempt. Turns out it's a 19-year old Sirius Black.

At first he is as reluctant as James is for the arrangement, especially since all James knows about him is the facts he has read from his file. But the more time he spends with younger Sirius Black, the more he realises that underneath the cool and distant exterior is a good person. How did he end up becoming a dark wizard? Was it really him or was he framed?

Gradually they become friends and then more than that. They start a forbidden relationship over the months James has to spend in the past. Eventually James returns back to his own time and when he looks into the eyes of Sirius Black again, there is understanding. There is love. They've finally met in the right time, and James is determined to prove Sirius is innocent, after all.

tropes 20 79

Fanfiction Trope Mash-Up

20: Teacher AU 79: Anger Born of Worry

Opes Briarcrest - yes, that was, in fact, their legal name - stood in front of their class of students who ranged in age from eight to ten. They kept their shoulders squared - a holdover from their time training.

"Students," they began carefully, "I want you to know that I am not angry because I am mad at any of you. If I get angry, it is because I worry about you. The world is rough, but I do not want this classroom to be as rough as the rest of it. You are here to learn, and I am here to teach and protect you. Work with me when there is an issue instead of against me, and together we will defeat the problem. Understood?"

The kids nodded.

"Wonderful. Let's begin." They turned back to the whiteboard and began the lesson.

Laleeee hiii how are you doing? 🥰

For the mash up au, can I ask for 75 + 88 with Kakashi? Or whoever you want, tbh I eat these kind of tropes with everyone 😂

Guyaaa (´⌣`ʃƪ) you have impeccable taste hehe, that was a very fun combo!

➳ Bed Sharing + Erotic Dreams

There was only one bed. Kakashi has read about this, but for it to happen to him in real life, with you of all people? He wasn’t sure if he was in heaven or hell. Maybe both. Yeah, probably both. He should have known he was doomed when you let out a quiet ‘tsk’ at his declaration that you can have the bed and he’ll sleep on the floor, and when he felt a tugging on his shirt and your pleading eyes seeking his, practically pulling him down on the softness of the bed with you. And it made sense–you two just finished a long and draining mission, and you needed to rest. It was as simple as that. Kakashi envied you, for how easily you could fall asleep, sprawled out on the bed as if you owned this place, without a single care in the world. Meanwhile he didn’t dare to move, almost didn’t dare to breathe either. Where your skin brushed against his, a tingling sensation spread throughout his whole body, impossible to ignore. It was when your quiet snores turned into something else, something more needy, that Kakashi had to bite down on his own tongue, eyes glued to the ceiling in an attempt to not let them wander over your sleeping form. There were no doubts what your dreams were about, from the way the mattress dipped slightly when you rolled your hips, soft whines escaping your throat in your sleep. He should get up, should walk out of here, pretend he didn’t notice anything–but then you mewl his name in your dreams and everything within Kakashi crumbles.

77 & 93 for Shrek wolfstar

In Vino Veritas & Makeovers

amazing combo and thank u for indulging me in my shrek wolfstar phase!! <3

Okay so they're obviously both ogres, both beautifully green and they are loving their swamp life as a married ogre couple. They've had a long, exhausting day babysitting baby dradonkey Harry, he kept flying away from them and they're EXHAUSTED so they deserve a little treat and both drink a glass of green wine (it's like red wine but bc they're ogres the wine has to be green too, sorry I don't make the rules). Well, one glass turns into one bottle... each. And then the secrets come spilling out... Sirius tells Remus about his crush on James when he was younger ("I knew.. of course I knew padfoot, you were so obvious"), Remus tells Sirius he sometimes wishes he were a crab instead of an ogre. Sirius goes all quiet for a moment and then he just disappears into the bathroom. Remus wants to kick himself, the wine has made him be too honest, and he has told Sirius his deepest, darkest secret, something he usually never talks about... he loves the swamp but a part of his soul secretly yearns for the sea, he's so sure he must've been a crab in a past life. He only wishes it was this one... but then he wouldn't have his happy swamp life with Sirius, and as much as he would love to be a crab, he wants to be with Sirius even more, and now he's worried he's said too much and scared Sirius off. Remus reluctantly gets up from the couch to go talk to Sirius and see if he can still save his marriage... He finds Sirius still in the bathroom, manically going through his makeup bag - so many different shades of green foundation, green lipstick, blue eyeliner (not everything has to be green...! - until he finally pulls out a little red tube and says "AHA!!! I knew I still had this!" Remus is so confused, until Sirius explains to him that he still had some Halloween makeup from when Harry dressed up as a Tomato and needed red face paint for that, so Sirius figured even if Remus may never be able to be a crab, he could give him a little crab-makeover to make him feel better? Red face paint, red nails, maybe even order a crab costume and some pincers...

For the mashup ask game:

If you're in the mood for an angsty one, could you have a go at 71 (24 hours to live) and 28 (proposal fic) please? Preferably involving Ahsoka?

If not, then maybe 79 (anger born of worry) and 54 (secret relationship) for Rexwalker/RexAniDala?

Not really sure on what you ship so if these don't work for you dw, honestly your writing is amazing so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ yeah

Fanfiction Trope MASH-UP: Send me two (2) tropes from this list + a ship and I’ll describe how I’d combine them in the same story.

This ask meme is from over a year ago. Please don't send new prompts.

Ahsoka 71. Twenty-Four Hours to Live 28. Proposal Fic

NGL having a bit of trouble with this one but I think this would have to be a mission fic.

Let's say Anakin's in trouble, sometime after the Wrong Jedi arc. He's been put in a Deadly Trap of the "room slowly fills with water" variety, and it's going to be too high in about 24 hours. IDK who put it together. Probably Maul, to fuck with Obi-Wan, because most of their enemies wouldn't use Anakin as bait in that way, they'd either go for a political hostage negotiation (Dooku), torture them personally (Ventress), or just straight up kill them (Grievous). Maul, however, would leave Anakin alone to get slowly dead in order to taunt Obi-Wan.

However, Obi-Wan can't get away to actually, you know, save Anakin. (Sheev rejected the request, in order to push that wedge of 'Obi-Wan doesn't really care about me' that he's been driving between Anakin and his Master.)

Instead, the clone of your choice is sent, and they find Ahsoka to help (or she finds them; maybe Maul decided to taunt her too? IDK). Rex is a good standby, but in this case I'm feeling like Fives or Echo might be better? Up to the reader.

So Ahsoka and her partner go off on the rescue mission. There are many near-misses. One, perhaps both, almost die at one point or another. There's a kiss and a confession.

They rescue Anakin, barely, and then rest on the floor, all of them covered in water and panting and very relieved that their General doesn't need mouth-to-mouth.

Clone of your choice leans over Anakin's body, grabs Ahsoka's hands, and asks her to marry him.

She's about to say yes, but--

"SERIOUSLY?! RIGHT OVER MY ALMOST-DEAD BODY? AT LEAST LET ME HUG MY PADAWAN FIRST." except with a lot more spluttering and cough, both from the Aghast Horror and the almost drowning.

Author Ask Tag Game

Thanks to @i-can-even-burn-salad @tabswrites and @mysticstarlightduck for this tag a few weeks ago, around the time I took a break from tag games. Back on the horse, though.

1) What is the main lesson of your story (e.g. kindness, diversity, anti-war), and why did you choose it?

I don't really "choose" lessons or themes. They emerge. But if Good Slaves Never Break the Rules had a lesson, it's probably about The Power of Love, not only romantic love, even though it's a romance, but love for our fellow humans and love for ourselves. And the power of choosing love over hate, despite how cruelly we may have been hurt in the past -- or how we may have hurt (or perceive that we have hurt) others.

2) What did you use as inspiration for your worldbuilding (like real-life cultures, animals, famous media, websites, etc.)?

The world of GSNBTR owes a lot to (mostly) fanfics with modern slavery AUs that I have read and enjoyed over the years. I basically took all my favorite elements from those stories, mashed them together, and threw in a few of my own unique touches. And of course, the worldbuilding has expanded from there, in many cases in much more detail than I imagined it would when I started.

3) What is your MC trying to achieve, and what are you, the writer, trying to achieve with them? Do you want to inspire others, teach forgiveness, help readers grow as a person?

My two MCs both start out with their separate goals -- her to get through university and become independent, him to find his sister -- which end up merging into one singular goal (save their loved ones and defeat the villain, essentially) by the end of the story. Learning to trust and work together is part of the journey they undergo, and with their individual strengths, they end up making an incredible team. So I guess demonstrating that is what I'm trying to achieve with them.

I want to make readers feel something. It doesn't even have to be necessarily what I feel, or what I set out to make others feel. If you feel anything -- love, fear, sadness, shock, hate, disgust -- while reading this, my work here is done.

4) How many chapters is your story going to have?

At this point (I just posted Ch. 27), I suspect not more than 40, give or take. (But take this with a grain of salt; the number has already expanded several times). We are in Act III and it's outlined in detail, with may of the scenes at least partially written, but I'm just not sure how long each chapter/scene is ultimately going to be and how and where they'll be divided. I have an idea of that, but I can't decide it ahead of time; I only know when I sit down to write and edit the chapters.

5) Is it fanfiction or original content? Where do you plan to post it?

Original (although I'm not afraid to admit there are some fannish elements/tropes to it) and I'm posting it on Ao3! It will eventually be an ebook as well. It probably won't ever migrate over to Tumblr, unfortunately, not only because of the time and energy that would require but also because the NSFW and romance elements make it much better suited for Ao3, I feel. Also, having it in one place only allows me to gauge exactly how many people have read it and engaged with it (not that that really matters, but still!)

6) When and why did you start writing?

When? As soon as I could pick up a pencil and string together letters on a page to form words. Why? Because telling stories is in my blood (literally; my dad is also a writer).

7) Do you have any words of engagement for fellow writers of Writeblr? What other writers of Tumblr do you follow?

Write what you want. It sounds simple, but I spent way too many years of my writing life writing what I thought OTHER people wanted, and it almost derailed my ability to write altogether because it made me so damn miserable.

For newer writers: If you find yourself beginning a writing question with the words "Is it okay to..." or "Can I..." just stop right there. The answer is "yes."

I follow more people than just about anyone I know and I think most of them are writers; it's in the 4 digits. So I'm going to put this question aside for now and start working on a post of my favorite Tumblr writers and stories, so for future similar questions, I'll be able to direct you to that.

This one was going around a few weeks ago and IDK who's done it so OPEN TAG!

Template under the cut

1) What is the main lesson of your story (e.g. kindness, diversity, anti-war), and why did you choose it?

2) What did you use as inspiration for your worldbuilding (like real-life cultures, animals, famous media, websites, etc.)?

3) What is your MC trying to achieve, and what are you, the writer, trying to achieve with them? Do you want to inspire others, teach forgiveness, help readers grow as a person?

4) How many chapters is your story going to have?

80&90 for the ask game please! Any Ship you’d like.

Green-Eyed Epiphany and Unexpected Virgin

*rubs hands together* Well, we all know what ship I'm going to pick, don't we? XD

I'd set it postwarts, no voldie AU, some sort of wizard university, and let's shift the always-delightful shared common room to a shared flat. Hermione's gone out with half a dozen Really Good Quidditch Players over the course of the term, but much to Draco's satisfaction, it's been one date each.

Tonight is RGQP #7, and he can't take it anymore. He plays Quidditch, he's Really Good, and WHY hasn't he been on the list?!

She can't go on that date.

A fake trip, a pretend sprained wrist, and oh no, he desperately needs help at home, please Hermione, the bloke will understand, if he really likes you. She cancels her date. She won't help him eat or drink - you can eat chips with one hand, and that's what straws are for, Malfoy - but she does read his study notes to him, so he doesn't have to turn pages, and she finally gives an actual helping hand when he 'gets stuck' in his jumper changing for bed.

Oh dear, one thing has led to another, however did that happen. And several hours later, he's discovered the reason she never has a second date - she was looking for the first guy she wanted to do THAT with.

😎😎😎

Thank you, nonny! I don't get many asks, so this was fun to do! :D

Different anon out here, I just ran through the archive real quick to find the post with the numbers: /post/683420556614352896/fanfiction-trope-mash-up (which would make 46 + 86 Blind date + I didn't mean to turn you on)

i would like to kiss all of you very gently on the forehead, bless thank you for letting me successfully outsource this menial labor i absolutely could have done myself i love my anons my anons are the best anons.

anyway!!

46. blind date + 86. "I didn't mean to turn you on."

i'm thinking a modern au where anakin and obi-wan dated for like two years when anakin was 20 or so, but they broke up pretty messily and terribly because obi-wan got a job promotion and was supposed to relocate for it, but he didn't know if anakin would want to move with him and didn't know how to ask so he didn't even mention the promotion because he planned to turn it down. anakin found out through back channels and is absolutely furious with obi-wan because he thinks he's going to accept it and move without telling him--because he's had so many opportunities to tell him and he hasn't so that must mean he wasn't going to tell him at all????

and anakin would rather leave than be left so he breaks up with obi-wan for all these imagined reasons, breaking both their hearts in the process.

so of course obi-wan takes the promotion and changes cities because this city reminds him too much of anakin now.

and like two years pass before anakin also leaves the city, taking a job in obi-wan's city (though he doesn't know that yet)

anyway, i'm imagining they have mutual friends through hand wavey fic coincidences, and their friends (who don't know their romantic past) set them up on a blind date because they would be absolutely perfect for each other. they're just each other's types.

both of them agree, but obi-wan doesn't want his date to look him up before the dinner so he tells Bail to tell his friend that his name is Ben.

cue anakin getting to the restaurant and the hostess guiding him to where "Ben" is sitting and it's fucking....Obi-Wan Kenobi.

tensest five seconds of this poor hostess' life because both of these men look like they're about to fight but also break down and cry.

anyway anyway, they both decide that. well. they already have this reservation that Bail set them up with at this very exclusive restaurant....might as well see this date through, even though the company is less than perfect.

but throughout the dinner, both of them do things that like really accidentally turn each other on. Obi-Wan shrugs out of his jacket and rolls up his sleeves and Anakin is horny at the sight of his forearms. Anakin licks his ice cream spoon and Obi-Wan loses his train of thought. one of them accidentally starts a game of footsie beneath the table, and next thing they know, they're fucking in obi-wan's parked car

without, of course, resolving any of the issues from their past. because this is obikin and they're individually a mess and together a trainwreck.

#asks #thank you again anons for coming together like that #kit's silly lil aus #obikin #i imagine both also panic after the date when bail and padme text to ask how it went #and they're both like 'great yes very good!'#and bail and padme are like 'great!!! so we were thinking that we'd go out as a big group to a baseball game you can sit next to eachother!

56 + 70 for Juke(box) for the fanfiction trope mash up ask. Please. Only if you want.

56. awful first meeting & 70. locked in a room

they're both interning for some music studio, it's all really menial and boring work. lots of fetching coffee's and lunch orders and being shouted at because cars aren't on time and very little to do with actually making music.

julie started three days before luke did, and it's not like she thinks that makes her better or the boss of him, but she did learn how to use the printers first and is the one who has to teach luke how use the coffee machine, so she's a little bit the boss of him. lukes first day and their first meeting could have probably been salvaged and turned into a good start, but luke never quite knows when the shut up and just dug himself into a giant hole the more he talked. (it starts with luke being late, spilling a salad on the floor, blaming a misprint on julie, locking her out of her computer, all before 1pm.)

luke spends 3 weeks trying super hard to make up for it and become friends, julie spends weeks doing everything she can to ignore him and just do her job.

they're both working late one day, the only two people left in the building, only they don't know that because they've been cooped up in a little room all day getting on each other’s nerves. anyway someone accidentally locks them in, probably a cleaner or something thinking the rooms not in use idk. for the first half an hour after they realise they’re locked in they alternate between banging on the door and trying desperately to find some signal in the room. when that gets them no where they turn to blaming each other for their predicament. that fills about an hour.

eventually they both end up sitting on the floor, backs to the door and playing the worst game of ispy. eventually they just start talking to each other. about their lives, about their friends, mostly about music though. at some point they end up asleep against each other, julie’s head on luke’s shoulder, luke head on top of hers, hands almost touching. that’s how flynn, alex & reggie find them when they’d shown up at the office building worried about their friends.

thanks for asking!💜

sent me 2 tropes from the list & a ship!

My Top Posts in 2022:

lol this is Fandom 🤣🤣🤣 18 and 54 for the Trope Mash-Up 🥰🥰🥰

Secret Relationship and Circus AU.

InuYasha watched from the rafters as Kagome rode atop his elder brother’s back, shooting arrows through blazing targets. Any moment now the ring leader’s girl friend would take her place and they’d both steal the show long enough for the others to escape to the back of the tent and get ready for their next act.

But something went wrong. There were a dozen sudden explosions, and the tent caught fire in moments. Chaos gripped the staff and the audience, sending the one pleasant night into a spiral. Sango slipped from the rafters with ease, disappearing and then reappearing at Miroku’s side. They grabbed Rin and Shippo and headed for the exit. Kagura grabbed Kohaku and followed Kikyo, but he couldn’t watch over everyone. Not when the smoke was clouding his eyesight.

Kagome, however, he could see perfectly--smoke be damned. He saw her fall off of the canine’s back and he saw her go still. The only way down to her was back the way he came, but the fire was already spreading. He knew for sure that there wasn’t a way out anymore, not from that angle. The canine that once held her returned to his humanoid form before slinging her over his shoulder and leaping up through the hole of the collapsing tent without bothering to look back.

InuYasha got himself to safety easily enough and forced his way to the front of the crowd, opening his mouth to demand answers, but Sango’s voice made him stop short. “Who are you to her?” He was still a new addition to their family of freaks and Sango was taking a while to warm up to him. He wanted to elbow her out of the way, to proudly proclaim that he was her boyfriend. Her lover. Her darling dear. But Kagome’s plea that he keep things between them echoed between his ears.

Grudgingly upholding their pact, he took a step back, letting Sango kneel beside her to assess her condition. The words, ‘just a friend’ tasted like bile on his tongue, so instead he settled on something that felt more accurate. “I’m no one to her.”

A World Without You

Twice in a row was more difficult than I thought it could be, but it’s finished and I’m content until tomorrow. :] @inukag-week

When Kagome woke up wrapped in InuYasha’s arms, she immediately knew something had gone wrong. Sunlight broke through the woven mat separating them from the world beyond their threshold and decorated silver bangs in golden stripes. Which never happened. InuYasha couldn’t sit still, he never could, and time had done nothing to tame the white hot energy burning at his core like a supernova. If he wasn’t leaping he was pacing and if he wasn’t pacing he was chasing the twins or dragging a cart or fighting with Sango. For InuYasha to be in motion was to be alive.

A World Without You

I didn’t go for violence in the role reversal, so I added some here. :] @inukag-week ** Kagome extends her arms to InuYasha and he drinks her in eagerly, happy to learn the origin of every scrape and puckered portion of scar. It began with his hands running along her shoulders. He caught sight of an injury she’d caught a few days back when trying to play demon slayer with the girls. A tussle had ended with her back being sliced open by a particularly sharp rock. Initially she hadn’t thought to tell him. It had only bled for a moment before it was nothing but a stinging memory.

“What’s this?” He sounded so concerned when he asked and somehow she is now stuck explaining every scar she’s sustained on her top half.

“You almost have as many as me.” He takes off his top layers and begins pointing and listing. ‘This one is from when Sesshomaru got all pissy that he couldn’t find tessaiga’ and ‘this one is when Sesshomaru was bored’. The longer he speaks, amusement making his words less gruff and more childlike, the rage she feels boiling below the surface grows hotter and harder to contain. When she cuts him off, she’s had enough.

“How many of these are from Sesshomaru?”

Kimi gazed down into her wine, wishing she could creep back up to her room and crawl beneath the blankets that— come nightfall— she’d be sharing with two bodies instead of the usual one. The band was energetic and the guests were crowing with delight as Touga pulled his new bride into his arms for their first dance.

She had no right to be so upset. Touga asked her a thousand times how she felt about marrying Izayoi. He gave her every opportunity to back out, to keep him to herself. But how could she? They looked so fucking content it was nauseating.

Next she’d be expected to dance with her, to twirl her around the dance floor as if this union were not the direct result of Touga loving a prostitute more than he loved the Lady of the Lands. He could deny it all he wanted, but Kimi knew —without a shadow of a doubt— that a happy man didn’t find himself with two wives.

“Mama.”

Sesshomaru’s little voice could scarcely be heard over the roar of the band, and Kimi turned to face him— hoping to drown out the clumsy footfalls of their brilliant new bride.

Her son was perched on the edge of a table, his red nose the only indication that he’d previously been crying. She liked to imagine that he thought that he’d hidden it well, but a boy whose markings were still muted and incomplete could only be so clever.

“Why are we not enough?”

The question hit her in the gut, knocking the breath from her chest, and for a moment all she could manage was his name.

“Lady Yue says father is having another child with that woman. She— she says that they’re wed because he loves them.”

“Yes, but—.”

“But why did he need another family? Were we not enough?” His lips trembled as another tear slid down his rounded cheek, unbidden by pride or shame. “Did we do something wrong?”

Kimi would never admit that it was tears stinging her eyes as she saw her own insecurities staring back at her. It was one thing for her to feel inadequate, but her son would not.

“Absolutely not.” She sat her wine down and struggled to compose herself. “Izayoi is beautiful and so…” she choked on her words for a moment, cursing herself for being too weak to lie. How could one be too weak to lie? “Kind. She nor her child are replacing anyone.”

“Then why do you look so sad?”

There was no good answer for that, so she swept him off of the table and crashed her partners’ dance. It was that or tell the truth, and the truth was not an option. Before long Sesshomaru was content again, too focused on getting the steps right to worry about being replaced. And when the time came to switch partners, he took Izayoi’s hand readily, placing it in Kimi’s.

“This one will dance with Father so mama and mama can have their dance.”

“Mama and mama.” Izayoi hummed. “What a thought.”

Despite her brave words, Kimi turned her face to the sky, preferring to gaze into the stone ceiling than spend a moment looking at the woman who ruined her life. “It will take some getting used to.” She grunted.

“Naturally. But,” Izayoi tightened her grip on Kimi’s waist only giving her a moment to orient herself before she dipped the demoness. “We have the rest of our lives to get used to one another.” Her petty grunt made it hard to stay angry. If it were that much trouble, one would think that she wouldn’t bother. “If you want, I mean.”

The music never stopped, but they did. Their graceful spin had come to a close and now they were just standing there. Staring at one another, and Kimi supposed that she was rather pretty when she was bathed in the purple-pink rays of dusk.

“It is of no interest to me either way.” She brought up her fan to hide her face, suddenly accurately aware of the other woman’s hands resting upon her hips. The flush that crawled along her neck was, at very least, well hidden.

“Papa, I think Mama has had too much wine again. She’d all red. Should I take her up to her chambers?”

Or so she’d thought.

“I don’t think it’s the wine, pup.”

Take your blood money @inuparentsday (maybe next year I won’t wait for the last minute 😂😂)

My #1 post of 2022

A World Without You

The first prompt is written and up! I don’t write about them often, but they make me EMOTIONAL. JEEEEEEZ. Rated G for General Audience. @inukag-week

Despite the laundry list of chores awaiting her when she woke up that morning, Kagome opened her eyes with the fleeting taste of a fried pork cutlet on her tongue. Her mother once packed her lunch box with it on days where she found that Kagome was at her lowest. For the first six weeks after realizing she’d never see InuYasha again, it was all she could stand to eat. Everything else felt tainted in one way or another, and there were too many times that she found herself sobbing in the pantry clutching a packet of ramen so tightly the styrofoam would explode between her shaking hands. Fried cutlet, while her favorite, was the one thing she’d never shared with him and so it became the one thing she ate. Every night her mother would cook two meals, fish or steak or chicken for the family, and fried pork cutlet for Kagome.

15+70 with prongsfoot pls <33

Thanks for the ask! 💛 This expanded a bit. 😄 They’re muggles in this one.

Criminal AU + Locked in a Room

James is a football equipment manager making sure the empty changing room is in order for the following morning when in runs the notorious crime family member, Sirius Black. His face has been plastered on TV for the last few months ever since his well executed prison break, and he's clearly on the run from the police. He slams the changing room door shut behind him, and James goes pale. They've called a maintenance company for someone to come and change the lock since it's been broken for a few days, and they've made sure to leave the door open ever since. It can't be opened from the inside. He's trapped in a changing room with a criminal. A very handsome criminal.

Sirius is intrigued by this charming stranger who introduces himself as James Potter. After the first shock wears off, James doesn't seem to be afraid of Sirius but suggests a very reasonable escape plan for him once they get out of the room. When they talk more, Sirius finds out James is frustrated because he always wanted to be a star player for the team but couldn't due to an injury. So, he settled for taking care of the equipment. Honestly, the man should be a convicted criminal alongside Sirius for his bright mind and those devilishly pretty eyes and how he keeps batting those long lashes like that. When he first smiles, the dimples seal the deal. Sirius Black will take James Potter along with him as a partner in crime. After their chat, Sirius reveals he has a gun so he shoots the lock open and they step outside to start their criminal future together.

Fanfiction Trope Mash-Up

50: Arranged Marriage 63: Everybody Knows/Mistaken for Couple

"I'm so nervous, Mars."

Mars still wondered how the hell they had gotten roped into this. But they tried not to bother with that thought as they straightened their cloak. "Don't be."

Catherine glared at them. "Easy for you to say. Your whole life doesn't hinge on how tonight goes."

"You're used to suitors, though. What's the deal with this one?" Mars asked. They ran a magic-cloaked hand through their hair, forcing it to stay in place and look nice. "And why do I have to appear? I'm literally a farmer."

"And the greatest wizard in Plantagenet." Catherine smoothed down the skirt of her yellow gown over her kirtle. "And the only person that my father doesn't mind me being seen with before I'm married off to some noble asshole whose previous wife went missing 'mysteriously'."

"I still think you should go through with the marriage and kill your new husband. I could even help you hide the body," they offered.

A ghost of a smile passed over Catherine's lips. "I know you would."

Mars offered their arm. "Shall we?"

Catherine took it. "We shall."

---

The ball was loud and annoying. It was precisely the thing that Mars hoped to avoid in moving to a tower in a backwoods hamlet after graduating (with honors!) from the Losniara Academy of Magic. Catherine maintained a strong grip on their arm, her dress sleeves hiding the strong muscles underneath.

Her future husband, unfortunately, saw the two. He was an older man, with the smell of elderberry strong on his lips. Mars couldn't be bothered to remember names, nor what house the crest on his doublet belonged to.

"Princess Catherine," he greeted with an overly-formal bow, which was only made clumsier by his clear inebriation. "I look forward to our wedding tomorrow. Might I say, you look simply ravishing."

Catherine recoiled - a mere step back, but it was all the cue that Mars needed to place themself between their royal rival and the nobleman.

Mars didn't growl, though they did speak before they could think about it. "It's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding. And you seem the sort to need whatever luck you can get."

The man's attention snapped towards them. "What do you mean by that, you...you...whomever you are!"

Mars straightened up. Their robes were hiding the full strength they had built up from years of farm work. "I mean that you're a detestable disgrace for showing up drunk to the very party being put on for you. You spit on the hospitality of King Edward, and in the same breath, you lust after his daughter. Shame."

The nobleman threw a punch. Mars caught his fist without even worrying about it. They smiled maliciously and tilted their head, making eye contact with the nobleman.

What happened next was remembered by no one present. Well, no one except for Mars and Catherine. As far as everyone else knew, the nobleman had quickly made his excuses, retracted his claim to marry Princess Catherine, and was routed from the palace. All the while, Princess Catherine stood calmly with her hand on the arm of the wizard she had called in.

Rumors flew after the fact, of course. Rumors that the two were secretly lovers. After pretending to gag at the thought, the two rivals laughed over the idea until their stomachs hurt.

My beloved GILF Goddess! I'm so excited about these mash-ups!! Can I request a bookshop (or book club) AU with a big damn kiss starring our resident goth gardner daddy Mihawk shipped with a reader? Thank you so much and big hugs!!

that's meee (/▽＼*)｡o○♡ it's nice that you still call me this even thouh i'm suffering the horrible twink curse atm LOL. thank you my sweet for sending something in, this was fun!

➳ Bookshop/Book Club AU + The Big Damn Kiss

You could listen to him for hours, watch how his mouth moved when he rambled about the latest book you read, a glass of red wine swirling in one hand while the other flipped through the book in his lap–always dog-eared, various bookmarks (receipts from the bookshop and the farmer’s market mostly) between his favorite pages, occasionally some thoughts scribbled in elegant handwriting on the side. Yeah, it was a book club that you’re holding in your shop once a week, but honestly you were more occupied with pining on the most handsome man you’ve ever laid your eyes on than whatever plot was happening on the pages. When you first met him, he didn’t strike you as an enjoyer of romance novels, but the way he got worked up over them was something else (and you couldn’t help but think that he also looked like straight from the cover of one). Still–talking with him was easy, and even though you lost your trail of thought every so often when he gazed deep in your eyes while you spoke, Mihawk always looked enamored with you and your thoughts on the books you read. Your energies bounced off each other in perfect harmony and week for week you’re falling a little harder for each other. It only takes you two a little more than a year of mutual pining for him to stay back once the book club ended for the night, lingering between the shelves, pondering and second-guessing if he really should take this step… but then you appear in his field of vision and all jittery feelings and doubts get washed away in an instant. He swoops you quite literally off your feet and the kiss that follows was one they write whole books about; sensual and passionate, like a thousand suns setting something ablaze within you, with a tenderness like you’ve never felt before.

Modern AU + Everybody Knows/Mistaken for a couple Skymandolo

[fanfiction trope mash up]

Rated M for some recreational drug use and sexually suggestive content.

Han was behaving himself, keeping an appropriate distance, sipping on his beer, and pretending like he wasn't wearing Din's bathing suit. The Skywalker beach house barbecue usually produced enough drama on its own. It didn't need Han contributing.

Lando, though, could see through just about anything.

"What's going on with you a Luke?" Lando asked. Han turned to him, trying to pretend like his eyes weren't just on Luke sunbathing by the pool.

"Nothing," Han said. He was, in his opinion, an expert liar.

"Oh please," Lando stirred his margarita with his straw, "you've got that 'Luke and I are back together, and I've never been so in love' face on," Han started to protest, but Lando cut him off, "which is noticeably different from your tragic pining face." Han furrowed his brow. He hadn't known that he even had a tragic pining face. "So what? Is Luke cheating on the daddy?"

Han tried to not let his look linger on Din for too long, who looked pretty fucking perfect in the pool, throwing kids up into the air and letting them splash back down.

"Luke would never, you know that," Han said. That was true.

"So there's really nothing between you two again?"

"No." That wasn't true.

Han had volunteered to be their babysitter two months earlier. All he had to do was keep Grogu alive and entertained until eight, and then put him to bed. The rest of the night he could spend on their couch watching trashy TV until they got home at eleven. Except they didn't make their way in until nearly one in the morning.

"Sorry, Han," Luke said, plopping down on the couch a little too close to him. "We lost track of time."

"Don't worry about it, kid," he said. That was suppose to be the end of the evening. He fully meant to grab his jacket and leave. But Din offered a joint to make up for the extra two hours, and Luke offered the couch so he didn't have to drive home. Han didn't want to pass up that deal.

"You know," Luke said, cozied up in one of Han's old hoodies from the last time they dated (not that Han was paying that much attention to him), while they smoked on the back deck, "the other night, I had a dream about the three of us."

"Oh yeah?" Han asked, passing the joint back to Din. "What kind of dream?"

"I think you can figure it out," Luke said.

"Was it you and me and then you and him?" Din asked. "Or at the same time?" Din was, in Han's opinion, aggravatingly neutral in his tone. He couldn't tell if he was aggravated or jealous that his boyfriend was having sex dreams about his ex, or if he was intrigued as Han was.

Luke took an exaggerated drag before he answered the question. "Sometimes it wasn't even me."

Din turned to Han, and then just shrugged.

Han didn't spend the night on the couch. He woke up bunt out, mouth way too dry, and in between his ex-boyfriend and his ex-boyfriend's current boyfriend.

That was two months ago.

If they'd meant for it to only be one hook up, they'd failed at that right away.

Han found himself at brunch two hours later, in clothes he borrowed from Din, helping Grogu do a placemat maze while Luke held his hand, and Din played footsie.

Han hadn't even spent a full night in his apartment in the last two weeks. Hell, he and Luke were back to regular 'I love you's.

They were all dating now, that much was obvious to them. But "I don't feel like spending the whole party explaining it," Luke said. Han could sympathize. He could give up a day of kisses for not answering questions from a bunch of Luke's strange relatives and family friends.

So, Han was about to tell Lando to leave it alone, when a damp Grogu ran up to him. "Han," he said. Han crouched down to get closer to him.

"What's up, squirt?" He asked.

"Luke wants to know if you want cheese on your hamburger," he asked, his little voice clear and sure.

"Tell him I would love some," he said. Grogu nodded and ran off towards the grill, where Luke was helping his dad and uncle manage the piles of meat they'd bough.

"The kid seems to like you," Lando said, as if it proved something. "He usually shyer around people."

"I've been babysitting," Han said. Which, again, wasn't untrue. He'd certainly been spending more time with Grogu, playing games with him, teaching him practical jokes that his dad hated, that sort of the thing.

"I still think you're lying to me," Lando said.

"You just think you're right about everything," Han said. He watched Grogu go up to Luke and give him the cheese information. Luke's gaze turned back to Han, and they caught each other's eyes for a moment, smiling at each other.

"You two did fuck!" Lando said a little too loud.

"Would you shut up?" Han said. "The last thing anyone needs is a rumor like that starting."

"You're right, you're right," Lando said, lowing his voice. He slurped on the last few drops of his drink. "Need another?" He asked pointing to Han's beer.

"No thanks," Han said. When Lando walked away, Han made his way inside to the bathroom. The house was empty, and the quiet and air conditioning were a welcome relief. Han snuck a peak at the treys of deserts before heading to the fancier upstairs bathroom. He wasn't suppose to use it, he knew, which increased its appeal.

When he stepped out of the bathroom, he was pulled to the side, and pinned to the wall by Din, his hand's over his head and one of Din's legs between Han's.

"You and Luke really don't know how to be subtle, do you?" Din asked.

"Oh yeah because this is really subtle," Han teased, before he was shut up by a kiss. Han wiggled his wrists under Din's grip, hoping to get his hands in his hair. Despite him smelling like chlorine, Han just wanted him closer.

Din let his hands go, but stepped back from him, smiling. "Behave yourself," he said.

"Behave myself?" Han said, annoyed at being teased. "You're the one who --" Din stepped closer to him, until their bare chests were nearly pressed together. Din's hand reached down and cupped Han's cock through the bathing suit, which responded a bit to the touch. Han gasped and moved against it, hoping to persuade Din to do more. Luke's old bedroom was just down the hall, it wouldn't be hard for them to slip in to fool around.

Din felt him up just long enough to make sure he was noticeably flustered before whispering, "Be good, and we'll make it up to you later," and leaving Han alone in the hallway.

Han took a minute to himself before heading back down stairs. The food had already been served. He took a seat across from Din and Luke. Din wasn't paying attention to him, focusing instead on making sure Grogu didn't eat to fast. Luke, though, was enjoying a hot dog, and making conspicuous eye contact with Han.

Han glanced a few seats down towards Lando, who was looking back and for between them. "What the fuck is going on?" Lando mouthed to him. Han just shrugged and bit into his burger, only to be disappointed to find out there wasn't any cheese on it.

Han looked at Grogu, who was laughing behind his hand. He knew what he did, Han realized.

"That's what you get for teaching him how to play jokes on people," Din said.

"You got me, squirt," Han admitted. He looked at Din, who had a goofy look on his face. Han knew it did a special kind of thing to him to see Han be good with his kid.

He didn't know what they had planned for him tonight, but he had high hopes for it.
