List of “they’re fake dating but are crossing way too many lines to be considered fake anymore” prompts

Character A’s arm around Character B’s waist, subconsciously keeping them close; glaring at people who try to get close to Character B. 

Heart twisting uncomfortably in Character A’s chest when they see Character B’s eyes lighting up when they’re talking to someone else, so much so Character A has to tear their eyes away to calm themselves down. The reminder of fake, fake, fake repeats in Character A’s head. 

Seeking for Character B’s hand subconsciously, intertwining their fingers, palm pressed against palm; snug and warm, the feeling of never wanting to let go almost overwhelming. But this is fake be damned — for now, it’s all about the comfort. (It becomes a habit.) 

Drunken kisses. God, the drunken kisses, with Character B’s fingers in Character A’s hair and Character B perched in their lap, kissing them with no restraint; things getting heated, Character A’s hands slipping under Character B’s shirt and earning a slight shiver from them. All the while, Character A could only wish Character B would kiss them like this when they’re sober. Character A lets that thought linger until they both fall asleep in each other’s arms after kissing way too many times to count because they can’t seem to get enough of each other. 

Late night phone calls or endless text messages at two in the morning, never wanting the conversation to end. It makes Character A wonder, but they stop themselves before these thoughts spiral out of their control. 

The thoughts of wanting Character B in a way they can’t have them becomes more frequent. They know it’s only going to break them by thinking like this, but they continue to entertain the idea of it; of how it would be like to call Character B theirs, for real. (It’s unhealthy, so fucking unhealthy, but they can’t help it.) 

Kisses becoming longer; more desperate, more passionate, with no need for alcohol. It burns to have Character B kiss them like they mean it; like there’s supposed to be something there, but they push it down because this is fake. It’s fake. This is all an act. (Character A convince themselves, at least for a little while more.)

Gazing at each other like they’re in love with each other, even though the both of them know they’re not in love with each other (or maybe denial is more blissful than they realise?). 

Fighting with each other hurts more than it should; it dissolves into tears, slamming doors shut and heart aches that wouldn’t have happened if they didn’t agree to this stupid fake dating thing. 

And then it all comes to a head one day, tearful and angry confessions on the tips of their tongues. (And by God, are they so dramatic about it, too.) 

B: “Why are you doing this to us? We— we were doing so good—” 

A: “Because this is supposed to be fake, but I’m falling for you and I’m fucking terrified I’m never going to be able to catch myself. Because I’m falling for you and you don’t feel the same and everything in me screams for me to run away, but I can’t because it’s you.” 

B: “…And who the fuck says I don’t feel the same?”

SOULMATES IN THE OFFICE AND MAGIC FOR CEOS???? AND CRIME??? u are so insanely creative i’ve never read anything like that.. i am obsessed with ur brain wtf... also ceo jaewin?!?! im going to kiss u 100 times for that. & no pressure to include all those themes if it ends up being difficult to write but personally i love that idea!!! i feel like these are all rlly common tropes but putting them together would make something super exciting to read (& would be really unique!!). (((also: LEAD GUITARIST HYUCK.... IM LISTENING!!!??)))

I LOVE ROMCOMS!! i just watched 27 dresses the other day and was reminded of my love for them. as u know i am an avid fan of runway-side-character-taeyong.... i will bribe u for fashion designer taeyong’s return...

A NOMIN COLLEGE LOVE TRIANGLE??????? IM SO EXCITEDDDDD (ive said that probably 10x in this message my apologies) tbh love triangles scare me but i am Ready for the pain....

IM SO HAPPY THAT YOU LIKE THEM IM LITERALLY ❤️💘💖🌞🎉🎊 PLSSS

The realism in the soulmate au is there bc it's more or less a regular fake dating au but the consequences are heavier I guess?? Like u are directly disobeying fate, you punks 😤 I LOVE MIXING DIFFERENT TROPES I ENJOY LIKE I LOVE THE USUAL ONES TOO BUT !!! EXPERIMENTING IS SO FUN 🤩 (also yes... i will be repeating the tension for jaehyun but this time yn is more flirty and nosy and annoying but also lovable i hope??? jaehyun is within an inch of his life after every conversation bc she absolutely ends him) ceo jaewin are my reason to continue writing and posting i have a rough layout for each of their fics already o( ❛ᴗ❛ )o

((about lead guitarist hyuck...... He is WAY too attractive for his own good but also annoying oops 😗))

HSJSJSJJS I have kept taeyong fics in the wip dungeon for too long but omg. I'm so happy you're excited about it!!! this fashion designer fic is dedicated to you tata 💝

IM GENUINELY AFRAID OF LOVE TRIANGLES AFTER TWILIGHT BUT I WILL GIVE IT MY BEST SHOT THANK YOU FOR BELIEVING IN ME 🤧

ALSO I GUESS THE OPPOSITE OF HOW TO TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS IS HOW TO GET A GUY (OR GIRL) IN 10 DAYS????? I am not sure where I'm going with this but I'm certain I'll figure it out along the way 😸 fake dating is a fun trope and jaemin is a fun person to write so boom. here we go. (also almost every plot I come up with somehow suits jaemin?? He goes with every romance plot so well 😭)

I'VE NEVER WRITTEN SUNGCHAN BEFORE SOOOO I'll have to figure out a character for him. I believe he'd be the type to cause problems on purpose and test the limits for it 🤔 it's all speculation though!!

DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE LONG ASK!!! I will respond with a long post too so 🥰🥰 I hope anyone who doesn't like this on their dash can just idk block my "answered" tag?? At the end of the day, it's my blog and you're like my fav anon ❤️❤️❤️

I put down a project I was writing a while back, and I wanna pick it back up but I don't feel that I'm as immersed in the world as I was and I don't know where to restart. Do you have any tips?

Shit due to mobile’s updated layout I had no idea I had asks and only just now figured out how to find themUhh idk? The way I work is…not very proactive unless I get really fixated on a project. I’ll reread my WIPs (many. God there’s so many) and sometimes I’ll get the urge to work on it more (or, completely rewrite it because I like the idea and the plot but /hate the writing and the dialogue and everything else/ *looks directly at a certain wip* and other times other times it doesn’t spark me but will later. I am a big fan of letting shit incubate in the back of my mind, even if that means almost every little thing that happens irl around me reminds me of bits I want to include or give me random inspiration for where I want it to go. (Of course I do this for several fics at once, some of them not even mine I just fixate on shit I read, because I cannot pull my head entirely out of fiction. Shoutout to fanfic as a coping mechanism, tbh)Also I write…….most fic on my phone. When I say most I mean basically all of it, save my nuzlocke and this one other thing that I need to rewrite half of it anyway. I just use the Pages app and autocorrect is a blessing and a curse and apparently I’m really, oddly fast at typing on a phone, and I mostly write while in bed. So. Before sleep (I’ve literally dreamed things further ahead in my fic than I’ve actually planned, it was weird but super helpful thanks brain), when I wake up but don’t wanna leave my bed bc That Depression, etc. Big fan of staying in bed. If I wasn’t so preoccupied with this one thing that people are cheerleading me to actually finish, then I would force myself to think about my Pokémon red storylocke and /finally/ get going on that. I have like the first chapter completely outlined in my brain and going much further than that, detail wise, is too much before I actually get shit typed out. Also, at least for my nuzlocke, not nearly as much for any other stories, I find it helps to incubate ideas to just draw your characters. Scenes you have in mind, especially ones that you have planned but don’t know how to get to yet because it forces you to think about “well damn how did he get up this mountain?” “If she fought that other thing just a bit ago, then should she really be fighting here?” “How is my character feeling during this scene?” It really helped me figure out my character’s motives and feelings for the bit in my nuzlocke where my first mon dies and my protag kind of falls apart a lot and makes bad decisions. Then again, I’m that kind of person who just immerses themselves in their creative works, be it writing or drawing. Like shoutout to that one time I said “I’ll just do a sketch” and then seven straight hours later realized the sun has set and it is decidedly no longer a sketch lol. Or fake dating fic. Four days on my phone while massively disassociating= 25k of fic, somehow. It really can’t be healthy to do that too much but whatever it’s like a daydream but you control it (mostly). Tldr; I say reread what you have, send it to a friend so they can cheerlead you/help bounce ideas around which helps so much with keeping that momentum, force yourself to think about it while doing other things. What first interested you enough to write it? What are you exploring? Sometimes I’ll see people in public that remind me of my characters/the characters I’m stealing for fic purposes and just watch them and imagine what that character would be thinking in that situation, what they’re feeling where they’re going etc. …it’s probably kind of creepy to peoplewatch that way, now that I think about it >.>(;Idk if I, Terra “finished to wip ration of about 1:15 and about ten AUs at any given time” of Kaleran, am the best person to ask, but I hope I helped anyway? Falling back in love with an idea is hard and I feel you and also motivation is a fickle thing and sometimes you really gotta fight it if you’re determined to get something done (unlike me with my Spanish homework…). U can do it! Do the write!
