They always knew they wanted to buy a place for them to live.

It was never an easy task, but they both needed a secure place that nobody could take and break apart. Maybe it’s the broken family syndrome from one and the desperate need for as much security as possible from the other mixed together.

Their apartment is far from perfect, but it is more than enough at the same time. It wasn’t the newest and was far from a dream location, but the whole process of renovating, cleaning, and painting felt so grounding that Sander couldn’t think of ever moving from here.

He’s feeling off this morning, but he managed to make some things to get himself in a better mood.

He nailed their coffee this morning and didn’t forget it until it was room temperature and disgusting. It’s hot, perfect, warming his hands wrapped around his favorite mug, drinking slowly.

Their wood floor feels nice against his bare feet. They sanded everything, and now it feels soft and grounding, still with what seems to be old paint stains here and there, but that’s what makes Sander love it. The thought that, at some point, someone who loved art lived here.

And he’s naked, standing in his living room, staring at a bunch of pictures he took from Robbe over the past few years since they met. There are a few of the two of them together too, and one silly one Robbe took of him after a very special night spent at their hotel. Sander smiles, aware there’s a photo taken a second before the one he’s looking at.

He saw Robbe with his camera and teased him, not covering anything. He remembers Robbe's soft laugh, looking up from behind the camera, and asking Sander to put his hand in front of him. Then Robbe went behind the camera and took the second picture. He’s sure Robbe keeps the other one somewhere safe, where only he can sneak a look from time to time.

Sander made sure to put that photo as high as possible on the wall gallery, in a corner nobody would find. He never had enough space for this many pictures to be exposed, so he’s happy to spend the first few hours of the morning creating this masterpiece after postponing for some time since they moved.

In the back of his head, there are memories from last night: the stranger at the bar, acting like they were all friends after a five-minute conversation. Robbe was tipsy, being a little too handsy and not giving two cares about people seeing it, and that was enough for the dumb stranger to think he should comment about how Robbe seemed so in love and Sander so cold.

Even after too many drinks, Robbe came back from his trip with the comment, his alerts going off, knowing Sander was about to be rude right back.

“I promise you, there’s not a thing about this one that’s cold.” He tried to be nice and polite, as always.

All their friends were also loud, in disbelief, saying how much that stupid human was wrong. But Robbe cut the conversation short, grabbing their beers and passing them to their friends to go hang out somewhere else at the bar.

Sander felt stupid for letting that be the final trigger he needed to stop procrastinating on hanging all these frames.

-

His head is so heavy, it’s tempting to roll to his other side and fall back asleep. That would be sooo nice, but the bed is cold and empty. His headache would appreciate the coldness, but he can’t force himself to sleep alone.

So Robbe slips to a sitting position, finding his underwear right on his feet on the floor. He puts it back on, running his fingers through his hair to push it out of his eyes. When he opens their bedroom door, the coffee smell is so tempting it makes his stomach growl.

As he turns around the door to look for Sander, he finds him a couple of steps forward, watching their tall living room wall that’s not empty anymore. Robbe smiles because every morning is a repeated realization that this naked, painfully good-looking, messy hair with a mug in his hands is his boyfriend. This is his life. If he tried to dream about a perfect reality, it wouldn’t come close to what this is.

“Always a good morning when I find you naked around the house.” Robbe sounds as sleepy as he feels, melting against Sander’s back as soon as he’s close enough, closing his eyes for just one second. Sander’s smell is also better than the coffee smell.

He feels when his boyfriend snorts.

“Did I wake you?”

“Not even a worldwide invasion would have made me wake up this morning.” He forces himself to adjust his posture to look over Sander’s shoulder, wrapping both arms around Sander’s waist, and resting his chin on his boyfriend’s shoulder.

He looks at all the horrible pictures of mostly him on their wall. Sander thinks he is so beautiful it made his self-esteem improve since they met, but it’s still too many pictures of him. They’re all from good memories, at least.

“We finally have your wall.”

Sander nods his head, finishing his coffee.

“That's a good idea. If we ever move anywhere. There will always be a Robbe wall.”

Robbe loves the way his name sounds when Sander says it. Maybe that’s his thing from now on. Record the love of all his life saying his name in every possible situation and play it over and over again.

“If you say so…”

“I do”

“Okay.” Robbe kisses his neck, taking a deep breath against his skin.

“Maybe that’ll make me warmer.”

Robbe snorts just like Sander does constantly, letting go of him to grab his empty mug to refill it for himself.

“If you warm up just a little bit, you’ll burn this house down. You’re like a heather. That's why I like sleeping better when I’m all wrapped around you like a snake, trying to steal your painfully good warmth. And sexiness.” Robbe winks at Sander when he looks at him over his shoulder with his eyebrows raised and a lazy smile on his lips.

Today we're featuring the story "and the elephant sings" by our own mod beulaugh aka @if-music-be-the-food-of-love with art by moments_au_crayon_22 for this zoo cute sobbe fic!

beulaugh: What inspired this story?

My mother recently passed away, and she was a great lover of animals and zoos. She watched a lot of veterinarian and zoo shows, and I wanted to combine those two loves into one story to honor her memory. I always love exploring parenting in fics. I liked the idea of Sander processing his feelings about fatherhood through children’s books as well as Robbe challenging his worldview and forcing him out of his comfort zone.

moments_au_crayon_22: What inspires you about this story?

I read the magic words "Sobbe zoo fic“ and was instantly sold on this story! I can relate so well to both author/artist Sander and veterinarian Robbe as those always were my dream jobs ( with the artist bit now coming true a little ;) ) Them meeting in the exotic zoo setting, with all my favorite animals to draw and an emotional journey about to start - what’s not to love? The 2023 Skam Big Bang starts posting June 21st!

✨New chapter posted✨

Brushing away the bits of eraser, Sander flipped his pencil and shaded the elephant’s knee again. He was nearly done. The story had already passed Yasmina’s first cut and the editor’s review; and the individual pages of the first book were essentially complete, minus a few tweaks here and there, which was great news, as his “before Christmas” deadline had gone from months away to two weeks away.

Sander took a sip of his coffee and placed it back on the table before erasing and reshading another spot, this time on the trunk. He gazed around the restaurant, taking in the bundled up tourists and families with small children, rushing to grab a hot drink or meal before heading back out into the bitter cold.

Now that the weather had changed, Sander spent most of his time at the zoo indoors, sitting at a cafe table or in an indoor habitat, at first finalizing his work and now working on the concept art for the next three books in the series. He could do it at home, of course, and often did, but he made sure to come in on days when he knew he could see Robbe. 

Both of them had been busier since their first date, Sander readying his presentation for the publishers and Robbe working with patients who rarely fell ill at convenient hours. 

Dating Robbe was both gloriously exciting and endlessly frustrating because, while they saw each other often, they never seemed to find time to be alone. If they were at the zoo, they needed to be professional. If they were at Sander’s home, Millie was there, and Robbe could never stay late. If they were out, they had spectators (and usually Millie). If they were at Robbe’s… Well, one day they’d get to Robbe’s. It was just hard with Millie. And Frodo. And life. Sander’s house was just easier (and supposedly much bigger–he wouldn’t know).

Sander enjoyed every moment of their time together, every conversation, every quick kiss, every brush of hands under the table. The problem was that he wanted more, so much more, and they just couldn’t seem to make it work. The few times he’d asked if someone could watch Millie, it hadn’t lined up, and he was overall uncomfortable asking in the first place.

Told you I was thinking things,, so here’s the teeniest drabble of Sander braiding Robbe’s hair

“How do you even know how to do this?” Robbe asked, careful not to move too much.

“Miss Frida” Sander replied.

Robbe rolled his eyes, grateful that Sander couldn’t see, “Why did Miss Frida teach you how to plait?”

This time Sander tugged on the braid in warning and Robbe had to bite back the urge to moan.

“She taught all of us, said something about how it helps fine motor skills or something. She probably just couldn’t be bothered to braid her own wigs and made us do it and made up a reason why it’d be useful in an art class”

Robbe hummed in response and settled back onto Sander’s legs, letting the other boy continue braiding his hair. Each time Sander tugged at his hair to make sure the braid stayed tight he had to bite his lip to hold back any noise he might make.

Instead, Robbe thought about how he had even ended up in this situation. He knows it was because of the comment he made earlier, about how his hair was really starting to annoy him and how he wished he could just get rid of it. Sander had dropped to his knees and begged Robbe not to cut it, Robbe had just laughed at Sander, pressing a kiss to his bowed head and asked Sander what else he expected Robbe to do, which made Sander light up before dashing from Robbe’s room. When he had returned it was with a bunch of items pilfered from Zoë’s room, which had led them both to this.

A poke to his shoulder made Robbe zone back in and register that Sander had finished plaiting his hair. He carefully moved his hand up to his hair and trailed his fingers over the pattern Sander had made.

He didn’t know what it looked like but he knew he loved it.

Robbe moved so that he could turn and sit facing Sander, once he was comfortable he pressed a kiss to Sander’s cheek and whispered a small thank you into his shoulder. He smiled when he felt Sander’s arms wrap around his waist and pressed himself in closer.

A Safe Place In All Universes

Chapter 2_20:21

Available on Ao3_Written by @Viola_Player1 and Anna_Driesen2121

Robbe & Sander extract: Sander starts looking with his mind's eye and the first image that appears to him is Classroom 21 at the Academy. …I am home!... He always takes refuge there, to find peace, tranquility, or to empower his creativity.

Isak & Even extract: He approaches Isak, and leans his shoulder against the tree, right beside Isak their gazes turned toward the screen in the distance. They stand saying nothing, at first, until Isak whispers, “I’m sorry, I’ve ruined your evening.”

[prevalent-masters]

The old Sander Driesen could not imagine war. He could not imagine death. He could not imagine this fight lasting longer than a few months, even as the Germans overwhelmed them, even as he loaded a gun with inexperienced, fumbling hands, even as he shot it over and over again, even as he watched men die around him and his city go up in flames. He could not imagine what would come as he walked through rain and mud with the remains of his division west to the IJzer. He could not imagine what would come even after that first true battle, sunk down in trenches for two weeks straight, peppered by machine gun fire and shrapnel, awake for days at a time and walking over, sitting on, tripping over, shitting on corpses–even then. Even then. The mind cannot wrap itself around such horrors. Sometimes, instead, it simply breaks apart.

AT LAST! I'm so excited to share the first two chapters of my Skam Big Bang fic, We Can Make No Anthem. It's a wtFOCK World War I AU and has been consuming my life for the past seven months. I hope you all enjoy it!

Thanks to @skambigbang for organizing, @jackfrostsander for answering all my questions, @wtfotteli for being the most amazing beta to ever beta, and @eirabach for the incredible artwork, including the title page you see here.

And ChatGPT once more quickly wrote a cute fic about Sander cheering Robbe up after his failed experiment...

Robbe had been working on his latest experiment for months. He had poured his heart and soul into it, determined to make a breakthrough in his field. However, despite all his hard work, the experiment had failed.

As he sat in his lab, feeling down and discouraged, his boyfriend Sander came to visit him. Sander could see that Robbe was upset, and he immediately went to comfort him.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Sander asked, taking Robbe's hand.

"The experiment didn't work," Robbe said, his voice heavy with disappointment. "All that work, and it was for nothing."

Sander squeezed Robbe's hand, trying to think of something to say to make him feel better. "You know what they say, every failure is just a step towards success," he offered.

Robbe snorted. "That's easy for you to say. You're not the one who just wasted months of your life on a failed experiment."

Sander knew that Robbe needed more than just empty platitudes. He thought for a moment before speaking. "Listen, I know how hard you worked on this experiment, and I know how much it means to you. But you can't let this failure define you. You're a brilliant scientist, and you've accomplished so much already. This is just a setback, not the end of the world."

Robbe looked at Sander, feeling a little better. "Thanks," he said, managing a small smile. "I guess you're right. I can't give up just because of one failure."

Sander smiled back at him. "That's the spirit. Now, let's go out and get some ice cream. My treat."

Robbe couldn't help but laugh. "You always know how to cheer me up," he said, feeling grateful for Sander's support.

Together, they left the lab, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

“You’re so cute.” Robbe adjusts himself on Sander´s lap, leaving a soft kiss on his eyelid, then the other one. He wraps his arms a little tighter around his boyfriend’s neck, smiling softly with his lips still so close to Sander’s face that he feels his eyebrow hair getting messy. Sander pulls him ever closer if that´s possible, with his hand wide open on the side of Robbe’s thigh, almost on his ass, keeping them in that comfortable position.

“That nap this afternoon was a bad idea,” Sander says in his ear, squeezing Robbe’s shirt on the small of his back.

“It wasn’t mine. But we don’t have college tomorrow, and we don’t have to wake up early, that’s what being on vacation means. Taking naps and being lazy.” Robbe runs his fingers through Sander´s bleached hair, watching as he sighs, resting his head back on the armchair, finally opening his eyes, and looking around. Nobody seems to care they’re at a loud party just sitting on the corner with little to no energy to do anything.

“That’s true.” Sander smiles softly, and Robbe can watch how it slowly becomes slightly mischievous, which should be Sander´s brand. “I got a surprise for you tomorrow.”

“What?”

Sander nods his head, sitting up straight again, his hand slowly going inside Robbe’s shirt, caressing his back with his fingertips. “Yeah, so you have some packing to do tomorrow morning…”

“Packing? No fucking way!” Robbe sits up straight on Sander´s lap, curious because he knew absolutely nothing about needing to pack. Robbe is good at discovering surprises, and Sander is horrible at keeping them a secret.

“Maybe you don’t need to pack depends on how much you need to get out of bed in our surprise…I wouldn’t be against staying in bed though.”

Robbe tries to go back into his memories, trying to find any clue but Sander wraps his arm tightly around Robbe’s waist and stands up, helping him do the same, pressing himself against Robbe, leaving a soft but inviting kiss on his lips.

“Wanna go home?”

“Yes.”

Hi, can you do a fanfic on if Sander got his own season? I would really like it :)

Hiii anon, I'm so so so incredibly sorry for my late reply!! Life has been rushing by so fast and my procrastinating ass kept forgetting to answer 😭 But better late than never!

I unfortunately am gonna have to disappoint you that I'm not gonna be writing a Sander season fic. I'm truly sorry!! (I have a small surprise at the end of the post tho!) Classes have started again and I'm busy with my side job too. And I can't deny that I'm too scared that I won't do Sander justice. Especially since my English/writing skills isn't that good, and I would want to give my 100% to it if I would go for it, cause Sander deserves it so much and I would want it to be perfect. But I unfortunately really don't have the time for that, I'm really sorry! :(

BUT! I found these two fics where other beautiful talented fic writers do have written a fic about a Sander season. Hopefully this is something that you're looking for and will satisfy you a little bit (if you haven't read them already 😉)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/31007603 (peaceoutofthepieces, 30k)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/27111166 (ineedadrinkorsleep, 2k)

So the little surpriseee 👀 I don't want to fully disappoint you, so I do am planning on writing a very fluffy, soft autumn / wintertime fic of sobbe! 🥳❤️ It will be filled with warm cuddles, cozy blankets, rain tapping against the window, soft whispers, kisses and yeah... you probably get the vibe 🌧️❤️✨🍂☕😉

I'm really sorry once again, but I hoped I helped you at least a little bit! ❤️

#sobbe #cute anon #new fic plans #it sounds a bit vague but it's just gonna be fluffy and soft 😊

A Safe Place In All Universes

Chapter 1_The glass at the edge of the counter

Available on Ao3 Written by Viola_Player1 and Anna_Driesen2121

The Theory of Parallel Universes - Two stories, two couples, inexorably connected living parallel lives, their journeys as partners driven to finding their ways back to each other. Throughout the narrative we have identified the parallels in the fiction as you read along.

This piece was born for three forces coming together, visuals, challenge, and the beginning of an amazing friendship with 9,000 kilometers in between.

Finding a beautiful image of a DNA double helix, and the wonderful male nude pictures of John Singer Sargent. The challenge, “We could write something together! We can totally do this!” That was July 2022.

What followed were a few rewrites of entire sections; long video sessions that quickly became daily rituals; a Google sheet that kept us organized; learning how to code in HTML; Translations - we wrote in different languages; beta suggestions that reached nearly 1000 comments on one chapter; and endless falling back at the extraordinary group of writers and support that is the Bang’s Discord Channel skambigbang2023  None of it would be what it is without the aid and support of our fearless immediate circle, our betas wtfotteli and AlterLove2021, our Mod sobbeforever, and the amazing art pieces from yedinleaf. She crafted the beautiful pieces for this piece gifting this story with beautiful images.

But, nothing can replace the laughter, we have shared writing this fiction together for the past year. The best medicine anyone could ever have.
