I think I loved him best, I’ll tell no lie. He was cavalier in his love, that’s why.
—The Wife of Bath’s Prologue
Gawain loved that Lady, Dame Ragnelle; In all his life he loved none so well, I tell you without lie.
—The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle

Let's go on-brand as hell. Les Mis, Arthurian legends AU. Bonus points for Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
(I originally typed this as Les Mis AU, and the image of Sir Gawain on hanging out at the barricades is cracking me up.)
(Sir Gawain would just wait till noon and charge the National Guard, depending on what variant you're going for for him. Regardless, no barricade that includes Gawain is going to fall, I have faith in my favorite knight.)
Also, okay, before I can share my own headcanons I do want to make you aware that @sovinly wrote a Dame Ragnelle AU called The Marriage of Sir Enjolras and you should definitely check it out.
You know who would get involved in a weird kissing situation while preparing to get his head cut off by an eldritch fey being? Bossuet would. I think Musichetta is Sir Bertilak and Joly Lady Bertilak rather than the other way around.
I genuinely can't decide if Enjolras would Love the grail quest or if he would be impatient and find it a distraction from creating a great and noble court of equal knights protecting all of Camelot's people.
... Ah, no, Grantaire offers to go on the grail quest and let everyone else focus on the important business of ruling and has himself a whole lot of self-loathing about how he wouldn't be allowed anywhere near the grail, and so on and so forth. I haven't read enough of the grail legends to be able to pinpoint any of his adventures more exactly, but he's our primary grail quester nonetheless.
Combeferre makes a GREAT court wizard.
You'd think Enjolras would be Arthur, but false, he is not, because you can't tell me that the Cosette & Eponine situation couldn't parallel the Arthur & Morgan situation in some interesting ways. Like, obviously not a perfect map, but I think in any Arthurian AU where there's an actual ruling monarch and not a Republic Of The Round Table, Cosette is Arthur.

I recently read “Room for all Mysteries” by @myrmidryad :
It is a retelling of “The Green Knight.” I really enjoyed it, and reading it inspired me to keep working on my own Sir Gawain AU, “Loathly.” Loathly is based on “The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle,” and I am pleased to say that it now has a Chapter 10.
Please enjoy!

@roswellnewmexicocreate
in love with how you’re soul’s a mix of chaos and art by caitlesshea
Michael communicates telepathically until he meets his soulmate Alex and hears his voice.
I love the idea behind this fic, the way this soulmate bond works. @caitlesshea does a wonderful job showing how new and exciting it is for Michael to be able to hear Alex and to speak to him. And I really like the way they're able to share memories, likes, and dislikes.
This Isn’t Pretty Woman by djchika
Alex never wanted to be a ‘Manes Man’, but when his father dies and accidentally leaves his entire company to his estranged son, Alex has no choice but to turn the family legacy into something he could call his own. If only it was that easy.
Michael had left Roswell, left everything and decided that life on the open road was what he needed. He doesn’t mean to pick up an old friend, but one thing leads to another and he finds himself in a situation that’s straight out of a romcom. Only thing is his life has never resembled a movie and he’s absolutely positive that this? This isn’t Pretty Woman.
-
[or: originally a fic inspired by Pretty Woman that turned into a Christmas romcom]
@djchika does a great job working through Michael and Alex's insecurities and issues in this universe. I love all the steamy scenes and all the feels. And I really enjoyed the appearances from so many other characters from the show.
no regrets if we walk this new road by andrealyn
When Max can’t bring Rosa back on that fateful night, he, Michael, and Isobel embark on a new path that leads to UNM and completely different destinies.
What they can't escape is that the more things change, the more they stay the same.
I really enjoy how this feels like a more adult version of s1, with no love triangle drama. @andrea-lyn does a wonderful job reimagining s1, including, but altering, all the important bits. And I love seeing Micael and Alex happy and together.
Loathly by aewriting
When King Manes and his sons are caught illegally hunting on Antarian lands, King Noah gives King Manes a choice - correctly answer a riddle or accept death. A year-long search for the correct answer ensues, leading the youngest son of the king, Alex, to strike a bargain with a mysterious woman who claims to know the answer.
This is an AU of the Arthurian legend "Sir Gawain and the Dame Ragnell."
I love the way we see Alex’s kindness toward and respect for Guerin in this fic. The author does a wonderful job building the world of this AU. And I really enjoy this idea, of Alex agreeing to marry Lady Guerin, first out of duty and then out of platonic love, only to learn he’s married Michael.

as y’all know, i have a particular soft spot for AUs so today’s list was really, really difficult. so, i’ve kept it to fics i haven’t already recced in my big ol’ list. but if you’re looking for more amazing au fics, that’s the place to find more of my faves.
Invisible String by @adiwriting - E. WIP.
For ten long years, Alex and Michael have been fighting the evils of Project Shepard, desperate to start the forever their bond promises. After years of stolen moments and secret video calls back and forth, their future is within reach. They just have to get rid of Jesse Manes first. (soulmate au, deaf michael).
Friday Nights and the Lights so Bright by @insidious-intent - M. WIP (kind of. i’m still waiting for the rest to go up on ao3, nudge nudge).
It's Friday night, and Alex hates everything.
Michael Sanders AU by @prouvaireafterdark - E. series.
A series about what we could have had if Sanders adopted Michael like he wanted.
Don't Look Back in Anger by Page161of180 - M. complete.
In a universe where Michael Sanders grows up on his dad’s warnings about what happened when Harlan and Tripp Manes stormed the Long Farm in 1948, it’s a no-brainer for Michael to keep his friends close and the son of his greatest enemy closer. Trouble is, Michael can never seem to keep Alex Manes close enough... In any universe.
Loathly by @aewriting - T. WIP.
This is an AU of the Arthurian legend "Sir Gawain and the Dame Ragnell."
Jack of all trades by @beautifulcheat - G. complete.
Michael has a problem. One Alex Manes, freshly moved back to Roswell, keeps showing up everywhere Michael works. Trouble is, Michael works, well... pretty much everywhere.
Power Through by @emma-arthur​ - T. WIP.
Alex Manes escapes the mutant detention center, and is rescued by three mysterious mutant siblings and taken into the Mutant Underground, a clandestine network that fights back against the government. Only Isobel gets captured in the process, and as they run against the clock to get her back, some of Alex's darkest secrets may be brought to light.
make no mistake of the good times and bad by @andrea-lyn - M. complete.
Alex Manes, undercover FBI agent, is eager to find a way into the illegal car operation in Roswell. He's got a lead in Michael Guerin, along with permission to get information by any means -- even if those means include seduction. 
plus! a few (non-fic) extras:
malex + jane austen by @cosmiceverafter​
an old guard au by @alexmanes​
Lizzie Siddal/Desperate Romantics AU by @lsobelevans​
Manes Man Records by @suzteel​

Fic Recs - Assorted
Random fandoms, but things I’ve had bookmarked to rec for a while:
Magnificent Seven
You Push, I Push Back by @hazel-athena
He’s nine years old when the words Oh good, we got us a Mexican appear curled around his left bicep, and his mama bursts into tears at the sight of them. 
 (SOULMATES, IT HAS SOULMATES)
Two Thousand Little Kisses by ThrillingDetectiveTales
A collection of drabbles based off of prompts. Short, sweet, and shippy.
Currently all Faraday/Vasquez, with a smattering of additional characters and pairings thrown in! Now featuring a very tiny crossover chapter with The Losers, which isn't tagged because I don't want to flood the dash for that precious small fandom.
Personal faves include Chapters 3, 4, 9, 11, and 16! 
Ab Extra by ThrillingDetectiveTales
" - don't need your help," snapped a strangely familiar voice. Goodnight frowned, mind tumbling through page after page of distant memory, trying to place it. "It's four goddamn stairs, I ain't scaling a mountain."
"You almost fell coming up the porch, guerito," a second voice responded, chiding. The low, thick accent of it jarred Goodnight starkly back into the past, immediately revealing the identity of both speakers. "Just give me your hand, idiota terco."
"Damn," Billy muttered with feeling, as he too recognized the strangers. He cut a dark, knowing look at Goodnight, eyes narrowing at the sudden, elated edge to Goodnight's grin.
up and out by brawlite
Faraday wants to make this fuckbuddies thing work, he really does. Problem is: he's head-over-goddamn-heels for Vasquez, and all it really does is hurt.
Losers
Solid Copy by thefourthvine
Jensen shifted his gaze to Cougar. “I really thought that if I ever had to say the words ‘telepathic disaster,’ it’d be a lot cooler than this is turning out to be.”
Roswell New Mexico
a few drinks and some conversation by @christchex
Michael Guerin makes a friend who isn't his sibling, an ex, or a sibling's ex.
Loathly by @aewriting
When King Manes and his sons are caught illegally hunting on Antarian lands, King Noah gives King Manes a choice - correctly answer a riddle or accept death. A year-long search for the correct answer ensues, leading the youngest son of the king, Alex, to strike a bargain with a mysterious woman who claims to know the answer.

WIP Challenge
Fair warning, this is a LONG post. Maybe now, you will all understand why I don’t get anything done. @sociallyunacceptableorb @chingkittycat I cannot wait to learn how you name your documents.
I was tagged by @siverwrites 
Oh, dear God. You’re all about to see the embarrassing amount of stuff I work on all at once across my multiple WIP folders
Challenge: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous.
Document4: A novel that I’m co-writing. It has a girl with mysterious powers and a scheming aristocrat. It’s kind of getting all my attention right now because deadlines for the publisher. It also has a character named Dorian, who I can’t take seriously after that ‘Funko Pop of Dorian Gray’ post.
STD Ch 2: STD is an unfortunate shortening of the title Silver-Tongued Devil, my Kirby fanfic where Nightmare keeps harassing Customer Service, a poor door-to-door salesman, into joining his monster selling company.
All Applicants Must Love Cats: The lesbian roommate serial killer novel.
Lord and Knight: Kirby fanfic that follows Sonata. Basically, Meta and Dedede become besties. It’s kind of like Once Upon a Dream but more...detailed? 
MetaJecra: Heh. Jecra is a young and super enthusiastic knight who is on a knightly mission to find a monster terrorizing a nearby village and stealing their children, so he goes into the woods, finds Meta (who is not stealing people’s children), and they end up in this huge mess that Garlude has to bail them out of. This is The Adventures of Sir Jecra the Magnificent and Blueberry that I’ve referred to a couple of times.
Modern DLU: This has every scene I’ve ever written and not yet used for DLU.
Overcoming Child Abuse: Someone...long ago, posted this AU about Meta leaving Nightmare and going through therapy, while raising Kirby. And Dedede is Meta’s neighbor and thinks Meta is very attractive, but Meta doesn’t get it. It’s like a...critique of how mental health is treated/finding a good psychiatrist. It’s okay to go to therapy and get medicine and help kind of thing.
Prince Fluff: Chapter Two for Spinning a Yarn, my Kirby fanfic.
Sonatina: The ending chapter for Sonata, one of my other Kirby fanfics.
Sugar-Spun: Kirby gets abducted by an evil wizard who wants to eat him, but it does not all go according to plan.
Superhero AU Galaxia: The Kirby superhero AU focusing on post-Haltmann experimentation Meta, his relationship with Galaxia, and Dark and Daroach having a buddy cop thing going on.
The Golden AU: The Golden Lady AU where Garlude and Galaxia are in love, and no one dies.
Barbazul: Bluebeard with lesbians.
Dame Ragnelle: Basically, The Wedding of Sir Gawain, but different. After refusing a man’s advances, Lunette is cursed to be a hideous monster by night unless she can find a man willing to marry her and give her equal footing in their relationship; this, of course, will only work if she doesn’t tell the guy to do this. Lunette’s sister disguises herself as a knight, goes to Arthur’s court, and tells Arthur to solve that riddle or die. So Arthur sets off on this journey to give Gawaine (who hates him) some Family Bonding Treatment(TM). And they run into Lunette, who starts to really have the hots for Gawaine.
Knight Slayer: It’s basically Gareth and Lynette with emphasis on Lynette and her role in basically leading a bunch of knights to their deaths in trying to save her sister.
Legacy: Mysterious Pengu lady arrives and slips Dedede a love potion. She wants to marry him and save her country. Meta is not happy.
Romcom: A romantic comedy involving a couple of Zelda cosplayers.
Sectoniadedede: AU where Sectonia and Dedede have an arranged marriage, while secretly pining for Taranza and Meta.
Seraphina: One of my attempts to work out my childhood abuse and my incredibly dark and complicated family history.
The Lady Hero’s Journey: This strange hero’s journey involving Appalachia and folk tales, set during the Year without Summer.
The Once and Future Queen: Artura Pendragon pulls the sword from the stone, and basically...it’s kind of King Arthur exploring rape culture. 
Astriferous: Woman destined to end the world per the wishes of the cult she lives in decides to run away with a powerful mage. In space.
Clarissa: A retelling of Samuel Richardon’s Clarissa, basically. But more modern.
Fire Emblem WIP: It’s about Corrin and Jakob.
Gerudo Fanfic: Remember that Zelda fic I wrote about a Gerudo transgender man becoming king? All the work for that is here.
GSA Fanfic: A Kirby anime fanfic.
IDEK plus drabbles: If you’ve given me an anon request that remained unanswered, it’s probably in progress here.
Lor: It’s about Magolor.
MetaxSectonia: It’s this...really creepy fic about Sectonia wanting to “remake” Dark in Meta Knight. 
Paging Anna: A reference to Anna Freud. After trying to take over Dreamland, Dedede makes Meta Knight go through this fifteen-step program to overcoming his traumatic childhood.
Sleeping Beauty: It’s Link and Midna post-Twilight Princess. Link falls into some sort of eternal sleep, so Midna and Zelda have to reunite to find a way to wake him up. And there are some really annoying fairies.
Tangled AU: Nightmare is a doting, but lonely wizard who makes himself a son...who is promptly stolen by Yin-Yarn and replaced with a bunch of lettuce, leading to Nightmare’s sort of comedic attack on the Queen of Expy medieval Germany.
The Witch in the Woods: A sort of prequel for Sonata that I never finished.
WIP: It’s literally a bunch of Kirby odds and ends. I have a chapter of Prayers and Miracles here. There’s some of Sonata, a little bit of Spinning a Yarn. Some of The Corpse Bride is here.
Zelda Fanfic: Link and Ganondorf are best friends until Destiny comes calling.

H, J, M 💕
H: How would you describe your style?
Mostly a hodge-podge of words, essentially. I think what my style is could be defined as a focus on using the setting to evoke feelings, which is why I’m not very good (I feel) at conveying inner thoughts/emotions. I prefer to do it through visual cues and body language.   
J: Write or describe an alternative ending to [insert fic].
There’s an alternative ending for my fic, Bad Dreams. What happens is that the s3 Moriarty message airs, Sherlock is brought back and Molly and Noah are taken back to their house, to find Moriarty waiting for them, having figured out Noah’s existence. That was written before s4 aired, so if I was to write it now, I would have one of Eurus’ agents waiting for them all. Cutting out Mary’s death and all that business with Victorian Sherlock.
M: Got any premises on the back burner that you’d care to share?
Top five because there’s so bloody many:
Rey is sold by her drunkard parents to the First Order and grows up in the Stormtrooper programme, but her burgeoning Force powers cause her to be noticed by Kylo Ren.
Reylo version of The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle, with Rey being Ragnelle and Finn as the knight who challenges the king (Kylo).
Cyberpunk AU that’s kind of a mix of Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2047, with Rey and Ben as lifelike androids.
Penny Dreadful AU where, in Victorian London, Rey tries to escape her ultimate fate by joining forces with the American Ben Solo. They reckon with their respective powers, which separate them from the mortal realm and find a strange solace in each other.
Canonverse Dirty Dancing AU where the snobbish son of Senator Leia Organa Ben arrives with his family at a fancy resort on Naboo and meets Rey, a dancing instructor at the resort and falls head over heels.
Fanfic Asks – send me one!

Sirius rolled his eyes. "My lord, would you stop alluding to your death before finishing the story of how it will come about?" "Certainly," said James. "I am to answer this question: what is it that women most desire?" "A good tumbling," said Sirius. "Love," said Lily, smiling at her husband. "And happiness." "That is three answers already, and there are only two of you," said James. "Sir Severus demands one answer." "Only because you married a wife who is determined to always talk more than the person before her," retorted Sirius. "But I am not a woman, so you may strike my suggestion off your list." "Very gracious, Sir Sirius," said Lily, inclining her head. "Incidentally, that is a desirable trait in a husband."

favorite fics 💌
i just know I have found the place my heart belongs by scagnetism “the one where Louis has a quiet little girl, Harry has a toy shop with a magic faerie house, and they were made to fall in love.”
loathly by luminescents “An Arthurian Legend/Faerie AU based on ‘The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle’, wherein Louis is a Knight of the Round Table and Harry is not what he seems.”
paint the sky with stars by kiwikero “the historically accurate Titanic AU with a happy ending.”
here in the afterglow by fondleeds "1970’s AU. In a tiny town in Idaho, Louis’ life is changed forever by the arrival of a curious stranger.”
elysian by wonderlou Harry is running out of time to fall in love, but with Louis, it seems as if there’s all the time in the world.”
cupid’s chokehold by bluelemur “Louis is a Cupid who tries to match up Niall and Harry. It doesn’t work out as planned.”
we were just like glue by togetherwecouldbealright “Louis works in a library where his own books sit on the shelves. Also, there may or may not be a Harry Styles involved and he may or may not be Louis’ muse. Not that Louis is admitting to anything.”
something great by infinitelymint “In which a coincidence, instagram, a party, a piano and a planned coming out all come together to make two people fall in love. As it happens, it turns out to be a rather effective combination.”
married for a week by gravitycentered Hi guys :) You might recognize Harry from one or two of my old videos .. I was tagged in the Married for a week challenge so I asked him to be my husband ! We had to live together for a week and take each other out on a couple romantic dates and that, check out the video to see how it went :) Give it a like if you enjoyed and maybe subscribe if you haven’t already. Love you all - Louis x
when it’s late at night by Rearviewdreamer The Late Late prompt that we all need to get through this excruciatingly hard time.
when you look like that by hrrytomlinson Louis is a songwriter who is nominated for a Grammy and he needs a suit. Fast. He seeks out help from a very popular, very mysterious designer who just so happens to be his ex-boyfriend.
coming up for air by stylinsoncity It’s a long plane ride to LA but sitting beside Harry makes time fly.
with nothing but your t-shirt on by crybaby Harry is a camboy and Louis has been an avid subscriber for a while before he finds out they attend the same university
say you want me by orphan_account featuring Liam, Zayn, and Harry as the members of Sonic Boom, an English band that unexpectedly sky rocketed to international fame, Niall as their biggest fan, and Louis as the exact opposite. Harry’s a closeted pop star and Louis is the uni student he keeps fighting with on Twitter. It’s all silly banter until it turns into something else

Loathly, Chapter 9
https://archiveofourown.org/works/23539942/chapters/65541637
Here is the latest chapter of my Sir Gawain and the Dame Ragnell AU! Enjoy!
Excerpt:
“By the gods,” the man mutters, looking down at his fingers, flexing them. “By the actual gods...”
“Sir...?”
“You’ve done it,” the man is saying to Alex, wide-eyed, silhouetted by the light of the fire. “You, you’ve freed me. My powers, they’ve returned.”
“That was you?” Alex asks, and perhaps the thought should frighten him, but it does not. Not even a bit. If he is honest with himself it even... excites him.
