That strange little VM/M9 AU I came up with a few weeks ago? Well, here's the first chapter of a (hopefully) multi-chapter fic based on that idea!

///

The Lord and Lady of Whitestone found themselves in a place very far from home, but not completely foreign to them. Over the years, the de Rolos had traveled back and forth from their home to Wildemount for a number of different reasons, both diplomatic and personal. This time around, the visit was a mix of the two, both conferring with the local dignitaries about intercontinental relations, as well as enjoying the folksy warmth that came with a small town harvest festival.

The pair had made their way to Blumenthal, a small farming town just outside of the capital, where most of their business was taking place. It was their fourth day in Wildemount and the first time they had been able to escape the likes of rulers like Mr. Thinks-He-Knows-Everything and Ms. Everything's-Under-Control. The types that governed big cities like Rexxentrum were all the same, power hungry and almost certainly unbearable. Vex’ahlia had learned how to play nice for the sake of keeping peace, but that did not leave her tongue from saying what it truly felt.

To get some respite from these strong personalities was a sigh of relief for the couple, who had made it a custom to visit the smaller towns during their political travels to get a more authentic feel for the land. This was their second visit to Blumenthal, the first almost exactly one year ago, again at the time of the Harvest Festival. Unfortunately, at the time, Vex’ahlia had been heavily pregnant with the twins and some minor complications sent the expectant couple home early. This had been their first big trip since the twins’s birth and it felt only right to finish the activities that had set their eyes on the year prior.

Harvest festivals in towns like Blumenthal were a sight to behold. Normally a quiet town focused on crop productions, it had turned lively and joyous at this cooling time of year. It reminded Percy somewhat of home, when the common folk of Whitestone would celebrate their own festivals, not too different from the one he stood in now. Of course, he knew it would be different here, he could not hide the stench of his dignified blood here, but that did not stop him from trying to just enjoy himself.

As Vex made her way around the open market, she felt a light tap on her shoulder. Carefully, she peered over her shoulder before relaxing into a smile as she beheld the sight of her grinning husband with two candied apples.

“I wouldn’t have pegged you as the type to like fair food,” Vex’ahlia smirked as she took the treat from Percy.

“I was a child once,” Percy replied matter-of-factly as he took a bite of his apple, “I’m allowed to indulge from time to time, aren’t I?”

Vex smiled as she took Percy’s free hand, leaning into him heavily as they began to slowly walk together through the town. There were dozens of stands set up by the local folk, selling food, wears, knick knacks and all different sorts of goodies. There was a general air of calm and pleasantness that Percy and Vex had not felt in some time. It was nice to get away from all the spurious and arrogant nobility and just be around the people who made the land what it truly is.

As the pair continued the leisurely stroll, a particular stand selling handmade toys caught Vex’s eye, pulling her husband towards it without warning. Upon approaching the stand, Vex let out a gasp of excitement, turning to Percy as she held a small brown bear toy in her hands. The toy was rather finely made, stuffed well and made of a very soft, gentle fabric. It was stitched together perfectly with a somewhat shiny silver thread, the eyes intricately sewn in the same fiber. Vex’s eyes twinkled as she rubbed the soft fur between her thumb and pointer finger, “Oh, Lainey would love this, it looks just like Trinket!” The tag wrapped around its leg listed it to be five silver pieces, but Vex knew beautiful work when she saw. Usually the type to haggle for a deal, Vex instead decided to more than fairly compensate the artist for their wonderful craftsmanship. She turned to the merchant, a young girl, maybe twenty years old, and placed 2 gold in her hand, reveling in the shock in the girl’s eyes as she trotted off.

“Uh uh, thank you, Miss!” Vex heard the girl call from a ways off as she joined up with Percy, who had made his way to marksmanship game. Vex studied the small toy in her hands as she heard the game keeper grumble at her husband. After a moment, her eyes wandered upward, looking over the crowd, until her eyes caught on a sight.

“Darling.”

Percy looked up from the game. Vex was looking off into the distance, her eyes clearly honed in on a target.

“Look.”

Percy stepped to her side, following her line of sight. In the small crowd of the market, Vex’s eyes trained in on a young man, no older than eighteen. This boy stood out against the more meager stock in the crowd, dressed finely in a brilliant crimson tunic, trimmed and detailed in gold. He held himself with a certain authority one would not usually expect from someone of his age, but the pair, especially Percy, would be hypocritical to judge.

They were not the only ones who had noticed him, most gawking at his ostentatious garb in the same way they had leered at the Lord and Lady, but this was not what the de Rolos had noticed. Despite the squared shoulders and confident stride, there was an air of nervousness about the boy. As his back turned to them, Vex and Percy could see the wringing hands that he held behind himself, ever so often tugging and scratching at his sleeve, but that was not all.

While most might have mistook the look on his face as contemplative, Percy knew better, he knew that face too well. The young man was lost in thought, but not of the perhaps flippant problems of whatever boys his age worried about, no, this was something deeper. Both Vex and Percy were all too curious to know what this something was.

The husband and wife locked eyes, nodding ever slightly to the other, before turning off and striding towards the young man, Vex placing the bear away securely in her bag as she walked. The pair stopped just before him, Percy playing the moment cool by engaging with the clerk at the stand he stood beside. Vex, however, decided on a more direct approach.

“Looking for a lady friend? Or a gentleman friend?” Her voice was clear and strong as she looked up at the surprised boy. His bright blue eyes were wide, not scared, but startled by her approach. After a moment, his eyes moved back to the necklace he had been studying, his hand hovering just above it.

“Nein,” he responded, barely dusting the chain with his fingers, his eyes never leaving it, “It’s for my mother.” The necklace was made of a dainty gold chain and set with a large, fiery crimson pendant at its end, the gem swirled with other colors intensifying the red stone’s hue. The boy cocked his head as he examined it, a peculiar look of curiosity mixed with melancholy wiped across his face.

“Oh,” Vex turned her eyes down to the display, “That’s quite a gift. Is it for her birthday?”

“Ach, no…” the boy turned to look up at the woman speaking to him, but she had already turned away from him and was now looking up at the older merchant.

Vex dropped some of the stiffness in her body, almost leaning into the boy beside her. “Excuse me, could you tell me how much this necklace is?”

The old woman who ran the stand eyed Vex for a moment before hobbling over to the front. The woman leaned over the display, fixing her small glasses to get a better look. “That piece there would run about 15 gold.” Vex’s eyes immediately darted to the boy, who visibly retracted upon hearing the price.

“Could we do 10 gold? It’s a gift for his special friend and he’s been saving for it for a while,” she turned to the boy, nudging him slightly, “Right, goose?”

The boy blushed at the sudden familiarity that this strange woman had adopted, but still understood to play along. “Uh, yeah. I mean, I only have about 7 gold on me at the moment…”

“I’ll throw in the other 3, it’s no big deal,” Vex interjected without a second thought.

The merchant looked pensive for a moment, eyeing Vex'ahlia and the boy as she considered the offer. “Deal.”

“You heard the lady,” Vex nudged the boy as she reached into her coin purse, snatching the gold and jeweled chain moments after. Peering off to the side, Vex caught a glimpse of Percy, who, although busying himself a few stands over, had seen the whole transaction. He eyed her curiously, but trusted that she knew what she was doing.

With the sale complete, Vex pulled the boy aside, handing him the necklace.

“I-I don’t know what to say,” the boy stuttered, looking down at the beautiful piece in his hands.

“Thank you would be a start.”

“Ah, yes, thank you, Miss…”

“Vex'ahlia, and it was my pleasure, young man,” Vex flashed him a smirk as she patted his cheek, “I’m sure your mother will love it. What a good son you are to think of her in such a way.”

The chain dropped to the ground with a slight rattle as Vex finished speaking. The boy stood still, still staring at his hands as if the necklace was still in them. Vex looked up at Percy with a flash of worry before turning back to the boy. Ducking down to get a better look at his face, Vex could see beyond a stony mask that he was trying to put up.

“If something is wrong, you’re allowed to show it,” Vex told the boy in a soft voice, her motherly instinct kicking in, “You don’t have to hide your emotions. I don’t know what is going on in your head right now, but it’s not going to help you to hide it.”

The boy let out a shuddered breath through his nose, bending down and scooping up the necklace, never meeting Vex’ahlia’s gaze.

“Thank you again, Miss Vex’ahlia,” the boy began, his voice stony, “But I really must be off.”

Without saying another word, the boy quickly turned on his heels and headed off in the opposite direction, his eyes never leaving the chain in his hands.

Vex was left dumbstruck as the young man bounded off, set off by gods knows what. Percy soon rejoined his wife, just as confused by what had just transpired.

“I don’t like this one bit,” Vex said to her husband, her eyes not leaving the direction the boy had run off in.

“I will have to agree with you there,” Percy replied with a sigh.

“We need to find him.”

Favorite Fics List

Here is my list of the best fics I have ever read regardless of fandom and in no particular order

Twist and Shout by gabriel, standbyme - Supernatural, Destiel - I’M LEADING WITH THIS BECAUSE IT’S GETTING TURNED INTO A BOOK AND THEREFORE WON’T BE AVAILABLE ONLINE ANYMORE SO READ IT WHILE YOU CAN Summary: What begins as a transforming love between Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak in the summer of 1965 quickly derails into something far more tumultuous when Dean is drafted in the Vietnam War. Though the two both voice their relationship is one where saying goodbye is never a real truth, their story becomes fraught with the tragedy of circumstance. In an era where homosexuality was especially vulnerable, Twist and Shout is the story of the love transcending time, returning over and over in its many forms, as faithful as the sea. If you were part of the SPN fandom and you didn’t read this fic were you ever even a part of it? (COMPLETED)

A Thousand Beautiful Things by superpotterlock (fvalconbridge) - Supernatural, Destiel - Summary: Accidents happen everyday, like someone accidentally hitting you in the face with a ball and then you mutually getting off with them in the school showers. Now Dean’s not saying he’s gay, but the thing he has going with Castiel isn’t exactly straight either and he isn’t even sure if it matters any more. Basically Cas is a rebellious teenager instead of a goody-goody like in most stories (UNFINISHED but worth it imo)

A Hole in the World by AnnelieseMichel - Supernatural, Destiel, A/B/O - Summary: Dean Winchester never wanted to go home again. Going back to Lawrence meant people who knew what he was, who didn’t buy into the lie. But with a tragic accident, he’s back and dealing with the death of his father, the social stigma and objectification of being an out Omega, and the lingering aftermath of a long-ago crime. (COMPLETED)

Fingers Tap Into What We Once Were by 2ofacrime24 - Supernatural, Destiel - Honestly, I read this fic so long ago that I don’t really remember what happens, but it left such a lasting impression on me that when I saw the title again I had a physical, not just emotional, reaction to it. So it makes the list. Summary: Human!AU. Castiel never expected to see Dean again, the man from one marvelous one-night stand. However when Dean walks back into Castiel’s life on the arm of his twin sister, Anna, a year later, Castiel’s world is turned upside down as he realizes just how much Dean affects him. (COMPLETED)

Out of the Deep by riseofthefallenone - Supernatural, Destiel - THE MERMAID AU TO END ALL MERMAID AUS! Honestly though, I consider this is seminal piece of Mermaid AUs. Summary: Stay away from the light-beds. Stay in the deep.It is the first thing hatchlings are taught the moment their fans unfurl and they can swim without their parents to buoy them along. It is the first rule, the first law. It is the beginning of every boogey-monster bedtime story told when they settle against the cliffs to sleep. Castiel should have listened better. This was also the first fic I experienced that had its own culture and fandom surrounding it. (COMPLETED)

Shootin’ You Straight by rockstarpeach - Supernatural, Destiel - I started reading the first chapter of this fic to remind me what it was about and then I just read the whole thing because it’s that good. Summary: AU. Dean Winchester is in a band and Castiel is a fan. Not of the music, of Dean. An opportunity presents itself one night after a concert and Castiel can’t pass up the chance of a lifetime. Neither of them is happy to leave things at just one night, though, so they start up a romance troubled by long distances and Dean’s rock star lifestyle. It’s not perfect, far from it, but this is their story. (COMPLETED)

Vita Nuova by worldaccordingtofangirls - Supernatural, Destiel - Summary: AU. Dean Winchester takes a job as a teaching assistant to get his little brother into a prestigious academy. He doesn’t quite expect such long nights and snobby kids, but the real surprise is professor Castiel Novak: or falling in love with him, that is. Excuse me while I go re-read this whole fic because I forgot it existed and really need to back in my life. (COMPLETED)

Blue Lips, Blue Veins by romanoff - Avengers, Stony - This is a LONG FIC (145 chapters) but WORTH IT Summary: Tony Stark is Iron Man.Before that, he was an man with bigger heart than brain. Before that, he was an asshole with a bigger mouth than sense. And before that, he was was a scared little boy. Not that it matters. Stark’s always have had iron in their backbone. Basically, it’s Tony’s life story. (COMPLETED)

Born from the Earth by venusm, Avengers, Stony, A/B/O - This fic takes world building to a whole nother level, like I am telling you! Summary: Tony Stark’s born an omega in a world where that means he’s supposed to follow certain social rules. He becomes Iron Man anyway: Fuck biology.If only his biology (and the world) would quit fucking him back.Note: This is a multi-pairing fic; this world works very differently; not all pairings will be tagged until work is complete. Read with caution. At 81 chapters this is also long and very complicated. There’s also LOTS of trigger warnings and stuff but the author tells you what’s gonna be in each chapter (in a code! which is cool). (UNFINISHED)

Go Ugly Early by just_another_tinker - Avengers, Stony - Summary: He’s The Captain?This was not good. This was so not good.There were theories of course, of what The Captain would look like. Most followed the typical Hollywoodesque belief that he was some version of the Godfather, sitting in a dark room with a cigar, commanding his forces with a flick of his wrist. There were even some that even thought that The Captain was not one person, but a whole network of people with eyes and ears everywhere.The blonde Adonis in front of him was definitely not what Tony was expecting.Of course, in the end it didn’t matter.There was a reason no one knew what The Captain looked like.Because anyone who saw his face never lived to tell the tale. It’s a Mob!AU!! (UNFINISHED)

Liquid Lunch by romanoff - Avengers, Stony - Summary: Tony’s turned into a vampire. It’s very sad for everyone involved.Especially Steve. Not just because Tony keeps trying to eat him alive. There are other reasons too.“Just let me try a little bit,” he pleads “I won’t take all of it, oh, just a little taste—” He presses his palms flat against the glass and tries to scrape his teeth down the window “I can, I can control myself, promise.” And then he turns those eyes on Steve, looks him straight on, and they’re pleading, and innocent, and really, it’s selfish of him not to give Tony his blood, why would he not, he can’t see any justifiable reason, so he just starts rolling up his sleeve and nodding as Tony salivates into the glass. This fic is a WILD FUCKING RIDE OKAY but like, you gotta read it it’s just too good. (COMPLETED)

Playin’ For Keeps by Artemis_Day - Avengers, Jane/Loki - I’m putting this fic here 1) because I think it is a fantastic fic but 2) because I want more AUs like this Summary: The year is 1987. Jane Foster is just another struggling grad student, trying to reach her dreams and resist the urge to kill her crazy metal loving best friend. Until said friend drags her along to her favorite band’s concert, and one very mysterious and sexy guitarist throws her whole life out of order. (COMPLETED)

Power and Paradox by The_Kinky_Pet, Avengers, Stony, A/B/O - This has all the world building of A/B/O fics and puts it right up there with Born From the Eart IMO. Summary: “Billionaire, genius, engineer, philanthropist, submissive. Yeah, submissive. Any questions?”OR Yet another BDSM-AU. (UNFINISHED but might start being updated in April of this year)

Standard Deviation by jennagrins, karengrins - Avengers, Stony - Summary: Okay, so maybe Steve isn’t Professor Stark’s biggest fan at the start of term but first impressions can be mistaken.Now Steve doesn’t care what Clint says, Tony is not his boyfriend. Another fic that gave me a physical reaction when I saw the title even though I vaguely remember what it’s about (COMPLETED)

Nothing Like the Sun by Lomonaaeren - HP, Drarry - Summary: Harry finally realizes that he has trouble keeping lovers both because of his looks and because he isn’t very good at sex. He does what he can to alter that, but it seems he’s never going to be good enough to satisfy a wizard lover. When Draco Malfoy offers, Harry thinks a casual relationship with him might be the solution to his problems. But he should have remembered one thing: when it comes to Harry, Malfoy has a problem staying casual. BRB have to go re-read this fic because it’s so good (COMPLETED)

Pricking the Velvet by Teland - HP, MWPP Era - This fic is…I don’t even know how to describe it honestly. It’s an experience. But completely worth it. If you think you’ve read everything, you need to read this fic. NOT FOR BEGINNER Summary: It starts with James being a right twat. Okay that’s not helpful here’s some stuff from the AN on the first chapter: This happened because, back in September, on hir way to dreamland, Jack muttered sleepily ‘if James Potter went into velvet, it would be like him having a period on his *head*’. At which point we riffed on the concept for the next two hours while snickering like twelve-year-olds. I began writing the next day, even though I was already working on Plenary. Jack came up with the title immediately, too, bless hir. Pfft. (COMPLETED)

Nox by penceyprat - HP, MWPP Era, Wolfstar, Jily - Summary: The Marauders are starting their fifth year at Hogwarts; Remus is starting with a massive scar across his face - a byproduct of the increasing severity of his furry little problem, which is a definite cause for concern despite his insistence that it it’s fine.Sirius is starting with the memories of a certain morning at 12 Grimmauld Place in August: memories that he might not ever forget, yet is desperate to cloak underneath the facade that every is fine at home and that he and his parents just sometimes encounter minor disagreements.James is starting his fifth year, yes, but more importantly, he is starting phase five of his plan to woo Lily Evans: somehow his friends seem doubtful that he might succeed, but James, being James, is in no lack of confidence.And Peter, well, Peter is starting to wonder just why he puts up with these people, and if he should really be feeling sorry for Lily Evans, and maybe if he should have asked to have been sorted into Hufflepuff. The title of the first chapter is “ohmygod i am so in love with this fic already” and that is how you will feel after reading that first chapter. (COMPLETED)

Alone on the Water by MadLori - Sherlock, Johnlocl, Probably THE Sherlock fic that everyone has to read. This is the first fic that ever made me cry. Summary: Sherlock is diagnosed with a terminal illness. Warning: angst like whoa. (COMPLETED)

Stronger Than This by Laiquilasse - Sherlock, Johnlock, A/B/O - I wound up re-reading this whole fic while I was making this list. Summary: Sherlock is convinced John is stronger than his Alpha instincts, and he stronger than his Omega. So when Sherlock goes into heat, this is the first time John remains at Baker Street with him. There is MPreg in this but like not actually? I don’t like MPreg usually and I was fine with this. It’s also part of a series. (COMPLETED)

A Cure for Boredom by emmagrant01 - Sherlock, Johnlock - WOW is all I can say about this. Summary: They’d never talked about sex in the year they’d known each other. Well, that wasn’t quite correct: Sherlock had never said a word about sex; John had bemoaned his personal dearth of it on many occasions. (COMPLETED)

Sherlock: Give Me A Label (I’ll Make Confetti) by IBegToDreamAndDiffer - Sherlock, Mystrade - Summary: Gregory Lestrade is the local badboy. He drinks, he smokes, he has sex, but that’s what a lot of seventeen-year-old boys do. Not Mycroft Holmes, of course; that posh git wouldn’t know what to do with a bloke. That’s what Greg thinks until he sees a new side of Mycroft, and every label he’s ever used is torn down in seconds. (COMPLETED)

how the mighty fall (in love) by braveten - Yuri!!! On Ice, Viktuuri - Summary: Every Victor Nikiforov fan has three things in common. 1. They have unrealistic expectations for romance. 2. They mark their calendars with the dates of his newest book releases and the premieres of his latest movie adaptations. 3. They either passionately hate or love his greatest rival, a mysterious author whose pseudonym is only two letters: “KY.” It’s an authors!AU! (WIP)

You Can’t Plan For Everything by RivDev - Yuri!!! On Ice, Viktuuri, A/B/O - Summary: Yuuri forgets that he has a scheduled heat coming up until it’s just a couple weeks away. He scrambles to get everything ready in time, including deciding whether he’ll spend it alone or with someone. Victor only wants to help. SLOWBURN like you don’t understand how slow this burn is. (WIP)

Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart Aches by Reiya - Yurri!!! On Ice, Viktuuri - If you’re in the YOI fandom and you haven’t read this I don’t know what to tell you except go read this. Summary: ‘…Of all the rivalries in the world of sports over the years, perhaps none has become so legendary as that of Russian figure skater Viktor Nikiforov and his rival, Japanese Yuuri Katsuki…’A single event changes the course of Yuuri’s life, throwing him into a bitter rivalry with Viktor Nikiforov that spans across his entire skating career. But as the years go on, rivalry and hatred begin to develop into something very different and Yuuri doesn’t seem to be able to stay away, no matter how hard he tries.Hatred and love are two sides of the same coin and even though everything changes, some things are still meant to be. (COMPLETED)
