#meet ugly prompts

[tysonrunningfox]

Okay so this is really really really old, but I just discovered the hilarious Ugly Meet prompts (pathetic, I know) and I was hoping you'd humor a fan and do "99. I overhear you list of impossible qualities/requirements you want in a person, so I feel the need to give you a piece of my mind but I'm realizing I might fit your list as we argue" for Hiccstrid? It's okay if you don't do it, but it would be pretty awesome

99. I overhear you list of impossible qualities/requirements you want in a person, so I feel the need to give you a piece of my mind but I'm realizing I might fit your list as we argue

(Pls can anyone give me the link of this list of prompts because this was fun)

(Also, this is based on when my mom tried to tell me that season 2 of bridgerton was not as good as season 1 and I responded in a flabberghasted way and said dumb things)

---------------------------------------

Hiccup has an allergy to ‘girl talk’.  It’s not the kind that gives him hives or general inflammation, and it would almost be luckier if it were anaphylactic, because if it were, that might at least shut him up.

But as it is, it’s the kind of allergy that makes him word vomit.  Like a lie-tose intolerance that doesn’t let the bullshit reach a place where he’d absorb it anymore. 

He tries to be subtle.  Really. 

In fact, he succeeds, because he doesn’t glance at the women behind him in his corner café on a Saturday morning.  He doesn’t even hunch his shoulders when they start listing off disappointing dates and wishing for impossibilities. 

He minds his own business, until. 

Until. 

“Oh come on, Anxious and Pathetic, I like that in a man.” 

Hiccup snorts, louder than he thought he was going to, and the table behind him goes silent for a beat.  Just a beat.  Then, the voice he’d heard less of but pointedly ignored more pipes up. 

“Excuse me?” 

“Huh?”  He looks over his shoulder, pretending to be annoyed at them for eavesdropping, which is hard because of the fact that he was just eavesdropping.  He’s a lot of things but hypocritical isn’t one of them. 

“What’s funny?”  She asks, peeved enough that he really looks at her, and his Adam’s apple bobs so hard it’s painful. 

“Something on my phone.”  It’s unconvincing even to him, and after an anxious beat of silence he remembers to pull his phone out of his back pocket. 

“Mhmm.”  She looks him up and down, piercing blue eyes scanning him like a barcode, reading more information that he’s offering. 

So, he offers.  Because it’s girl talk and the only way to keep his airways open is to talk. 

“Anxious and pathetic,” he starts, and she has the sense or maybe is just shocked enough to look caught, “you say you like that in a man, but do you know what that means?” 

She blanches.  She’s really very pretty, in the way that makes him nervous but also a little desperate, which consequently, is when he happens to be funniest.  Not that anyone is laughing. 

“Does it mean interrupting strangers’ conversations?”  She raises an eyebrow, re-composed, and he bites his tongue against a stutter. 

“Absolutely.” 

“Oh, then continue.”  The color comes back to her face, just a bit, and it’s like a fortune cookie predicting his death, but again, he can’t stop.  If he could stop, he wouldn’t be here. 

“It means constantly hyping this hypothetical man up while they’re being stupid and embarrassing.  In fact, embarrassment is just a constant theme with an anxious and pathetic man—”

“Sounds like you know from personal experience.”  That’s the woman’s friend, and she has a perpetual expression of amusement, which raises Hiccup’s anxiety levels another tick. 

“Hypothetically,” Hiccup turns in his seat, repositioning, committing to the conversation when he shouldn’t, but when has he backed off of something he shouldn’t do?  “Hypothetically, dealing with an anxious and pathetic man is just a constant onslaught of situations in which he requires support, interest—It’s like getting a puppy, but without the benefits of having a puppy—”

He stops himself, breathes, wonders if he’s going to regret this in a legal way and then continues, because he has girl talk word vomit and there’s no anti-histamine for that. 

“Some of the benefits, I guess, like loyalty, like puppies, anxious and pathetic men tend to attach themselves to strong, confident women who know what they want.  It’s operant conditioning, some praise for good behavior and pretty much anyone will go along and—”

“Buy me a coffee?”  The target of his rant asks, eyebrow raised, leaning forward on her elbows and he swallows hard. 

“I mean.  Sure.” 

“Good boy.”  It’s a joke, he knows it’s a joke, because he just prattled on about puppies for longer than he would like to admit, but it gets to him anyway.  The back of his neck flushes and he shrugs to attempt to obscure it, but it doesn’t work. 

And she notices, her eyebrow quirking. 

“What kind of coffee?” 

“Americano, room for cream,” she tells him, chin leaned on her palm, and he goes.

“How much cream?”  He asks, for some reason (the reason being she’s magnetic), and she gestures with her fingers close together and he guesses. 

Anxiously. Pathetically. 

“Thank you,” she says when he hands her the coffee, fingers warm where they glance over his and linger.  “Any more opinions on my love life that you’d like to offer?”  She asks, cocks her head, takes a long sip of her coffee. 

“Um.”  Hiccup says intelligently, as is to be expected in the face of…that. 

“I mean, you’re just my type.”

meet ugly prompts ✦

— because i think this trope needs to be talked about more! (prompts start below the break. sfw.)

what is "meet ugly"?

a "meet ugly" is the exact opposite of a "meet cute"; instead of an over-the-top, romantic encounter, it happens in less than favorable conditions. it's awkward, it's messy, it's...ugly.

and it's my favorite.

so, here are some prompts and dialogues for your otp first meets!

✦ A is constantly being disturbed from sleep by their new neighbor, B. after a particularly rough night, A decides they've had enough.

✦ in a rush, A trips over B's belongings, making a mess of themselves (spilling drinks, dropping stuff, etc.). B tries to apologize, but A is too flustered.

✦ C has paired A and B to work together for x amount of time. both prefer to work alone, but their skills are crucial for the objective. (bonus points if they're both known for being the best at what they do, and become rivals first.)

✦ every time B comes home, their parking spot is taken. after a little bit of sleuthing, they find out that it is A, who hasn't been paying attention.

✦ A, who is afraid of heights/flying, is seatmates with B, who is blissfully unaware and is talking their ear off. (bonus points if A gets sick in front of B.)

✦ A is driving through a rain storm and has to make a stop at the nearest store, where they meet B, who has yet to be affected by the weather.

✦ B having a small, but embarrassing, incident that A just so happens to witness. (a classic!)

✦ "We'll be together for a while. Just...don't get in my way." "Likewise."

✦ "How could you be so careless?" "How could you be so clumsy?"

✦ "Can't you tell I love flying?" "I love flying, too!" "For fuck's sake..."

✦ "Do you mind? I'm trying to sleep!" "Well hello to you too, neighbor!"

✦ "You're in my spot." "You're acting like they're assigned or something." "...They are." "Oh."

✦ "What do you think?" "I don't know. Aren't you the expert?" "Can we just get the work done, please?"

✦ "Oh...you look a wreck." "Thanks! Didn't notice past all the rain coming down!"

✦ "God I hope no one saw that..." "Hey! Are you alright?" "...Fuck."

if you happen to use any of these, feel free to tag me! i'd love to read what you come up with. happy writing! x

“Jesus fucking Christ,” Steve says as he collides with someone as he’s turning the corner. There’s a split second where it’s just that— just two bodies colliding. And then the iced coffee the man is holding is dumped all over him.

“Shit, shit, shit. I’m so sorry,” the guy says, using the one singular napkin in his hand to try and mop up the freezing liquid from Steve's shirt.

It’s winter. It’s cold out. “Who the hell gets an iced coffee in the winter?” he asks, pulling his wet shirt away from his skin.

The one day he doesn't zip his jacket up because it’s not as frigid as it was yesterday is the day this happens of course.

“Gay people,” the guy says, deadpan.

Steve looks up and—

“Oh,” he says.

He’s cute. And almost exactly Steve's type— curly brown hair, eyes large and dark.

Steve’s still chilled to the fucking bone because of the coffee spilled on him, but he still has to shoot his shot.

“I’m bi.”

The guy’s mouth stretches into a wide grin. “Well, hi Bi. I’m Eddie,” he says and Steve knows it’s over for him, there’s no way he stands a chance now.

I'm in A Mood™ (stressed) so im going back to my roots of melting two character together into one person. So bruce wayne!danny fenton. Danny Fenton who, for eight years, grew up in a beautiful gothic manor with his mom and dad under the name "Bruce Wayne". Playing piano with his mother, running around the manor with his father.

Then when he's eight it's ripped away from him. There's blood on his hands and pearls pooling at his feet, and both his parents are dead in front of him.

And he gets shipped off to distant relatives "the Fentons" shortly after, Alfred close on his heels because someone needs to take care of him, someone that knows him. Bruce goes to the Fentons for the safety of anonymity. Gotham's press wants to sink its teeth into him.

Danny misses his city even if it took everything from him. There are shadows in his eyes and he's pale as a sheet even beside his distant cousins, and they change his name to "Danny Fenton' because nobody should know that their newest child was illustrious orphan Bruce Wayne.

They call him Bruce behind closed doors. Danny prefers it that way, he clings onto the name -- the one his parents gave him -- like a lifeline. He makes friends with Sam and Tucker. Tucker takes one look at the willowy, morbid little boy standing in the corner like a shade, ghosts in his eyes, and drags him out into the sunlight, and takes him over to Sam.

When Danny is twelve, he's still not over it -- and he's a little obsessed with the Fentons' research, with the morbid. He has books upon books on death, murder, detective work. Anything he can get his hands on. And stars. He loves stars.

Alfred owns the apartment next to them and comes over regularly. Danny clings to him.

When Danny is twelve, he's still quiet, meek, a shy little thing prone to being bullied. Freaky little Fenton with the night in his eyes and too-cold skin even before he put one foot in the grave. in a sleepover in his room with Sam and Tucker, he tells them the truth. They're his friends, he trusts them.

"My name is Bruce." he murmurs, voice quiet as the breeze, always quiet. he's staring at his star-covered sheets.

"Like Bruce Wayne?" Tucker asks, a joking tone in his voice.

Danny smiles a little, lamb-like with insecurity. "I am Bruce Wayne." And he takes them down to the lab, disrupting Maddie and Jack, to prove it. Sam tells them of her own wealth then shortly after. They start calling Danny "Bruce" in private too -- its trust. Thats what it is. It's trust.

Sam goes to media functions and comes back with aching feet and complaints on her tongue -- and Danny soaks it up all like a sponge, splayed across a beanbag chair with Tucker in her room. He's not envious of her, he used to go to events with his parents and they kept him safe from the ugly of Gotham's Elite. For the most part. He's had comments made at him, he doesn't miss them.

Alfred returns to the manor semi-regularly, Danny goes with him. he wanders the hallways and helps Alfred clean, the last thing either of them want is for their home to fall into disrepair. He brings Jazz with him next time, then Tucker, then Sam. They all help him clean, and he shows them his room. The one across from his parents', it feels strange.

When Danny dies when he's fourteen, the first adult he tells is Alfred. He and Jazz go over to his house more often than they stay in the Fentonworks building. At least at Alfred's, the food doesn't come to life. Alfred sits at the kitchen table and weeps when Danny tells him, Jazz is upstairs, and its just the two of them.

Danny's ghost form wears pearls around his wrist and the gloves look stained with some kind of black substance. He looks like a child who died in a lab accident, but he also looks like a child who has shadows dripping off his shoulders, curling at his feet, hanging from his eyes.

because amorphous blob batman has my heart always and danny/bruce will not escape it even in death even if that IS the only reason im giving him Mild BatBlob Vibes...so far

when they go to the manor, alfred helps danny make a pile of stones between Martha and Thomas' graves, nobody but the two of them (and sam and tucker) will know what it means. (not even bruce's children later down the line, not for a long, long time)

danny dives into ghost fighting on shaky feet and not half as witty as he once was in one world. he's skittish, skittering between blasts from shadow to shadow and clumsily making his way through each battle. but helping people lights a fire in him. he still has shadows dripping off his feet but there's a purpose in his eyes.

and god help him, he's going to help people.

#dpxdc #dp x dc #danny fenton is not the ghost king #dp x dc crossover #dpxdc crossover #dpdc #dpxdc prompt #this is just me torturing danny for a little bit because im stressed and i cried for an hour while i was driving so im taking it out on B #thanks for being my little stress ball danny #aha my old middle school habit of frankensteining two characters together is resurfacing again :) yall should've seen my wattpad drafts #in middle school. i had 50 of them and most of them were me combining two characters together to make one person and putting them in one au #my most memorable being skydoesminecraft and harry potter. THAT was a fun worldbuilding experience #do i think that growing up with the fentons would fix bruce/danny completely?? hurm. no. dont kid yallselves jazz is not a licensed #therapist not even at like. nine when she meets danny. she's not helping him through his trauma in the slightest. she's nagging. #she's his sister or sister-like figure before she's his therapist. would he be #*entirely* like canon bruce tho?? no. dannybruce is a mix of the both of them. but this is still the first post of the au and is more so #just me doing the equivalent of popping a stress ball so nothing is smoothed over. mostly im just trying to keep bruce's trauma prominent i #danny's character because he IS Bruce. i dont want him to just be 'danny with bruce's backstory but without any of the ugly bits'. #danny and bruce is used interchangeably because they're the same person but sorry if his personality feels imbalanced i came up with this o #the spot. was going to type more but the stress has left me. for now. watch ur back danny 👀

MEET CHAOTIC PROMPTS

Alright, kids, listen up.

We’re all suckers for a good meet-cute. Don’t even try to lie to me. Like, yeah, they’re cliché, but, if done well, it can be really cute, hence the name.

Meet-uglies on the other hand can be super funny, and they almost always lead to enemies-to-lovers or rivals-to-lovers, even if just for a hot second. They’re great, too.

But here’s the thing:

I want more meet-chaotics. Not meet-cutes, not meet-uglies, meet-chaotics.

What do I mean by this?

Well, you know how crazy life can be sometimes? How wack shit happens, it makes a good story to tell your friends, and it makes you low-key question reality for a second? Yeah. Meet-chaotics are like that. How you met is just so weird and chaotic that it was a bonding experience.

Here are some prompts/concepts so you understand what I’m getting at:

“Normal”/Humor:

 “I’m an uber driver dropping off my last customer, and you and your friends(?) just jumped into my backseat right as they got out and yelled a variety of ‘DRIVE! FUCKING DRIVE!’ and ‘FLOOR IT!’ There are flashing lights behind me, but I panicked and stepped on the gas, and now you’re trying to assure me that it’s not what it looks like, but I’m too busy worrying that I’m a wanted criminal now.” 

Bonus points for found family and/or polyamory!

“I’ve had a really bad day, and it started to rain, so, because I’m dramatic, I blasted my ‘*insert playlist name here*’ and lied down on my sidewalk/lawn/driveway facing the sky, and you just drove by, backed up, and ran out to join me as ‘Chasing Cars’ by Snow Patrol was playing. I have never met you before, but I’m pretty sure we’ve bonded and might be soulmates.” (Yes, I got this idea from a TikTok. What of it?).

“I was walking my dog at the park when he got off his leash, and now I’m running after him through the park calling his name and yelling to ‘GET THAT DOG!’ You’re having a barbecue/family reunion/birthday party, and my dog sprints towards you, knocks someone over, and begins eating your food. You see me sprinting towards you and trying to catch my dog, but he’s faster, so now we’re both chasing my dog, and I may or may not be swearing words that’d make a sailor blush. Eventually, one of us or a random stranger catches him, and we finally stop, and, hey, sorry about that, but, wazow! You’re pretty cute.” 

Bonus points for anyone vaulting over a table or something.

“We’re on our way to class, and I just witnessed you run past me down the stairs holding a bunch of books, trip, roll down two flights, and roll to your feet and keep running like nothing happened. And, like, we didn’t talk, and I don’t think you noticed me, but now I can’t help thinking of you. Like, that was impressive, but are you okay?”

“We’re at a house party, and it’s gotten pretty wild. Music is blasting from the speakers, people are dancing on tables, stuff is breaking, etc. Suddenly, the music shuts off, and someone yells, “POLICE!” and everyone s c a t t e r s. It’s pure chaos. I trip while running outside and curl up in a ball to not get trampled, but then a hand reaches down and pulls me up, it’s you, and we run off together still holding hands. Who are you, again?”

Bonus points if this goes back to the uber driver prompt. 

Bonus bonus points if this couple is coming from the same place as the folks from the first prompt, so it’s same universe, but they’re completely different people having their own meet-chaotics running from the police ‘cause they were at the same party.

Could be any illegal/big crowd scenario. A concert, a protest, etc. 

Sci-Fi:

“We live in a world where superheroes exist. One day, I’m minding my own business in my own apartment when you, *insert superhero name here,* crash through my wall while I’m just lounging on the couch, mug of coffee/preferred drink to my lips, feet up on my coffee table, and laptop open on my lap. We stare at each other. You get up, apologize, and fly off through the hole in the wall. Little do I know, you feel bad about the whole thing and decide to try making it up to me, except every thing you try just descends us more and more into chaos.”

Bonus points if this ends up being enemies to lovers, seeing as the protagonist, Character A, would probably be hella bitter about not having the specific superhero insurance needed to fix their wall. 

Bonus bonus points if Superhero has to save A from x during one of their attempts to fix the situation. 

“It’s the zombie apocalypse. I’ve set up camp in a (mostly) abandoned town, scavenging to survive. One day, there’s an unusual amount of zombies in the road. Panicked, I start to climb something. When I’m about halfway up, I hear a weird noise, and look down just in time to see you and your friend whizzing by on a shopping cart down the incline- you in the basket and your friend riding on the back. You’re screaming/yelling and swinging a bat around. The zombies are too slow and uncoordinated to catch up with you. At the last second, you look up at me and we make eye-contact mid-me making at wtf face. It’s such a stupid strategy that I’m low key in love.”

“It’s an alien invasion. We’re all running and screaming for our lives. Suddenly, there’s a spot light, and you start being pulled up into a ship. You panic and grab something. For some unknown, ungodly reason, I try to help you. It goes as well as it sounds. Cue us both getting beamed up while holding on to each other for dear life.”

“We’re on a spaceship. There are so many people on board that it’s impossible to truly know or recognize anyone. I’m working or reading or what have you, when I so happened to glance up at my porthole/window, just in time to see you, who’d been fixing something on the outside of the ship, floating away and doing some space gymnastics with your lead and etc., and swimming, to get back to the ship. I do what anyone responsible would do and sprint off to the docks to get you back safe inside.”

Bonus if Floating Person is just doing the absolute most ridiculous things to make it back.

I have more, but I feel like this post is long enough. But yeah. Something something meeting someone in the most chaotic, stupid, and unhinged way gets to me. Like, we’ve all have shared moments with a stranger because we both witnessed something or been involved in something dumb or crazy. And usually it’s like, eye-contact or brief, awkward commentary, then at the end of the day you go home and it’s just a funny story that only you guys experienced. Something about it just speaks to me.

Meet Cutes/Uglies: Fall/Winter

A stands in a queue when they notice a leaf stuck in the hair/on the clothes of the person in front of them. They offer to remove it for them.

Strangers A and B sit next to each other at the cinema. They bond over every jump scare and their self-loathing for letting their respective friends talk them into watching a horror movie.

A (accidentally) stumbles into the snowman B is building.

A slips on the ice-covered pavement/the pavement that is littered with wet fallen leaves and crashes into B.

A and B walk through a corn maze, trying to find their way out. Each time they pass the other, they look more panicked and lost. Maybe they could team up to find the exit?

A is in the middle of a snowball fight with friends/etc. when their snowball accidentally hits stranger B.

Strangers A and B are at the ice skating rink, holding onto the railing. Neither of them knows how to skate (– but each of them thinks the other’s attempts are endearing and inspiring (and just a little amusing)).

When the rain intensifies, A seeks shelter and ends up standing next to B (in a house entrance/etc.).

Strangers A and B both accompany their respective child/sibling/etc. and their friend group as they go trick-or-treating.

Strangers A and B are both obsessed with the special seasonal drink their (favorite) café offers. (When the café owner runs out of the ingredients needed/etc., they fight over who of them gets the last drink of the season.)

The company picks strangers A and B to decorate the office space for the Christmas season together. (A would have preferred doing it alone and has very specific ideas that do not align with those B has.)

Happily Ever After Is a Zero-Sum Game (5,871 words, Teen, 1/1 chapter)

Marinette Dupain-Cheng was done with rockstars, and Christmas, and neat and narrow fairy tales. If her fiancé— If her ex-fiancé decided he’d be much happier in a town at the end of the world with Kagami Tsurugi, Marinette was fine with that. She’d play the ‘bad guy’ in their Hallmark-movie happily ever after, no problem. If only she wasn’t stuck in a snowstorm with Kagami’s ex…

excerpt:

While she fiddled around on her phone and pulled up a map accounting for the current snowstorms and traffic jams—putting their normally 9 hour route at 12 hours—Cat Guy manned the sound system. When he seemingly finished, the ambient sound of falling snow sounded from the speakers.

Marinette raised an eyebrow. “Is this what you usually listen to?”

“I thought it’d fit our road trip.” He grinned at her from behind his scarf. Her eyebrow ran higher. “Okay, so, I… Don’t really have any playlists. I made all of them to listen to with my girlfriend, and…”

“That’s fine. Or does she have terrible taste?”

If he muttered, ‘you certainly wouldn’t think so’ under his nose, Marinette couldn’t be sure. “It’s mostly jazz and Kitty Section, and I’m not much into them lately, so—”

“You know, I always loved a good ambient sounds mixtape for the road.”

Scenarios

A. A and B have an appointment at the same clinic after their partner cheated on them, without knowing the other person is their side piece.

B. A server spills a milkshake on a customer's fancy new shirt, and is entirely unapologetic about it.

C. A and B match on Tinder and they quickly realise the other person is insane and unmatch. They then meet again on a blind date.

D. They've waged a passive aggressive war against eachother for years for being 'that annoying neighbour' by leaving notes in the laundry room without actually having met.

E. They're both hospitalised in the same room, and absolutely everything their new roommate does is annoying. And their family and friends are even worse.

F. It's the worst day ever already, and in comes an idiot who thinks it's cute to be overly friendly.

G. A is gleefully eating something B had been looking forward to all week – and it was the last one!

H. A stole B's cat accidentally, but now it's been over a year, so whose cat is it really.

I. A suddenly having to become a babysitter for a very drunk B, a complete stranger.

J. A and B have been tricked into babysitting the same pair of chaotic twins.

K. A finds B wildly attractive, and has had a crush on them for a good while, however during their first conversation, A blanks and insults B.

L. Just your ordinary everyday traffic accident between a car and a bike.

M. A drunkenly texts B, thinking they're A's ex, and now B won't stop teasing them about it.

N. On a skiing trip, A walks into what they think is their own lodge, only to find that the bed they're sleeping in belongs to B, who very much doesn't appreciate waking up to being spooned by a stranger.

O. A is the sole reason they're desperately trying to survive an avalanche.

P. A's dog messes up B's date, but is refusing to pay for a new pair of pants.

Q. A's sibling fucks over B, and when B comes over to slap some sense into them, they end up slapping A.

R. A gets an angry phone call from B, cussing out someone with a name that's similar to theirs. At first they wanted to hang up, but now A just really wants to hear how that person fucked up.

S. A is a stand-in for B's partner in a reality TV show, and is doing their damnedest at messing them up since B was dismissive of them when they met. Revenge isn't always cold, bitch.

T. They're sharing an Uber from a club, and holy shit, A is bleeding all over the place, so B has no option but to help to avoid paying a cleaning fee.

U. A works at an amusement park as a mascot in a suit. B lives to torment the mascots, and now that there aren't kids around, A is ready to let them have it.

V. A is running late, and only notices their shirt is inside out in the elevator. They try to put it on right but they get stuck with their shirt half off. B is the shocked neighbour who finds A like that.

W. A has brought in flowers to work to welcome the new hire, who happens to be extremely allergic to said flowers.

X. Someone keeps stealing A's food from the fridge, and having had enough, A poisons their food with an inordinate amount of chili peppers. Now to wait for the screams of B come lunchtime.

Y. If A doesn't shut up about their ex anytime soon, B is going to blow a gasket and tell them to get a life. They're in public for fucks sake, have your mental breakdown somewhere else.

Z. A has talked mad shit about B at length, not realising they'd be their next opponent in their next match. Now it's personal.

Here, have a half-coherent, sleep deprivation induced plot bunny with absolutely no context:

“Those will kill you, you know.”

Holb spun at the sound of the voice, deep and rumbling, barely audible over the chaos that was the pride parade filling the street around him. The voice belonged to a void of a man, a black spot among the riot of color. He was pointing at the cigarette pinched delicately between two of Holb’s fingers with a furrowed brow. He wasn’t sure if he was being flirted with or judged; it was the oddest opening line he had ever heard either way.

“So I’ve been told,” Hob said, almost a yell to be heard over the din.

“What’s your name?”

Definitely flirting. It was the most awkward attempt Holb had ever seen, but there was something almost endearing about it that made him smile.

“Holben.”

“Did your parents hate you?” The man asked incredulously. Holb snorted.

“Evidently,” he chuckled. “My friends all call me Holb, though.”

“Hob?”

Holb laughed, then realized the man really had misheard him. He wasn’t surprised; the entire street was a cacophony of sound. No one had ever called him Hob before. It felt good, like a warmth settling in his chest. He snuffed his cigarette against the bottom of his shoe and pocketed the butt to throw away later.

“Yeah, that’s right,” he said with a smile. “What about you?”

“Dream,” the man replied.

“Your name’s Dream?” Hob laughed. “Now who’s parents hated them?”

Dream’s lip ticked up in a minuscule smile and Hob grinned in response. Together, they continued walking, caught up in the flow of the rainbow stream around them, though they only had eyes for each other.

Hi! Could you give meet uglies and cutes that takes place in public transport?

Hi, sure :)

Meet Cutes/Uglies: Public Transport Edition

the only place for their luggage on the train is the overhead bin and they struggle so much that someone gets up to help them

one of them has a ticket that allows another person to ride with them, so they invite a random stranger to use their ticket, requirement for this is that they have to stay together for the whole ride

an engine failure is the reason why a 100 people get stranded at a little train station in the middle of nowhere, all trying to find their way home

sitting next to each other on a long bus/train ride and starting to talk about anything and everything

the train has a two hour delay and they start to bond over their annoyance

it's rush hour, the bus is completely full and the only way to not fall is to cling to the person closest to them

sharing a taxi, because they need to go to the same place

calling the conductor on the train, because the other one is sitting on the seat they booked and doesn’t want to move

there is nothing worse on a train, then when someone close by starts to make really loud phone calls for hours on end, talking about private issues without shame

it's their first time on a ferry, but it's the only way to get to the other city and sorry to the other passengers, but they get incredibly sea sick

almost as bad is when the person next to them starts unpacking their food and it's probably yummy, but it smells a lot and they will tell them that

the rails are being repaired, so they have to use rail replacement buses to get to the next train station, but they have to work together to find out how to get there because there are no signs and nothing makes any kind of sense

when the bus makes a sharp turn they suddenly find themself on the lap of a stranger

their seat neighbour is watching a Netflix show with subtitles, so they start to watch too and get invested

I'm using public transport daily and I have a love/hate relationship with it. I've just come back from a trip where the train was late for 2 hours and there was no AC at over 30 degrees. Still love to have the option to just go anywhere without having to use cars.

- Jana

PS: Schienenersatzverkehrshaltestellen (rail replacement coach stops) in Germany are notorious for being difficult to find and hard to navigate. I definitely met other frustated and lost people like that before.

Would love a canondivergent AU set in s11 time where the Ian and Mickey never met in canon (whether they knew each other precanon as kids and then stopped or whatever is fine but no interaction during the canon period till this point). the Milkovichs move in next to the Gallaghers like in season 11. Frank could still want to get rid of the Milkoviches and fail, Liam is still scared of them. Ian and Mickey have some sort of meet ugly because it's the Milkoviches, but eventually Ian and Mickey get close and get together.

Hi! First of all, I simply adore your works. Can you please give me some more prompts on ugly first meets for enemies to lovers rich badboy X bubbly girl au. I'll be happy if you can do it. Thank you :) Have a graet day:)

Making ugly first meets was so much fun. Admittedly, I didn’t make these with a bad boy and bubbly girl in mind but these prompts should definitely work with that au.

Enemies to Lovers Meet Uglies

“You drive to work the same time I leave my house and every morning when I cross the road you nearly hit me with your car. We usually yell and flip each other off but today I had enough!”

“You’re my asshole landlord and you kicked me out of my apartment. I’m going to bang on your door every night until you give me my apartment back because me being evicted was totally unjustified.”

“I’m just trying to sleep on this 10 hour flight but you’re sitting next to me and you won’t stop moving and making noise— please just go to sleep.”

“We’re both at the supermarket at 2am and we both grabbed the last bottle of wine. Let go! My day was far worse and I need it more.”

“You left a scalding online review about my restaurant and now you think you can waltz back in here?”

“I performed at an open mic night at a comedy club and after my set I heard you making fun of me to your friends. Do you really think you’re funnier than me?”

“You’re my new coworker and you keep taking my parking spot despite it having my name on it.”

“We both booked a room at the same hotel but due to a mix up in the system, you ended up with my luxury suite and I ended up with your cheap room that’s the size of a closet. I am not leaving your room until you let us swap back.”

“You’re the bouncer at a club and you won’t let me in because I “don’t look of age” when I’m literally showing you my real ID, stop being an asshole.”

“I’ve been waiting in line to see my favourite artist live in concert for hours and you think you can just cut me in line like this?”
