An AU in which Henry and Alex are exes, also Alex is a rockstar who puts a lot of himself into his songwriting. And there’s a happy ending

...every time I play a game like this you come in with something that desperately wants to be a gamefail. I see you.

ONE: The breakup isn't anybody's fault, and that makes it so much worse. If Henry could blame Alex—if Alex had cheated, if he'd let fame get to his head, if he'd started holding the money he was earning over Henry—it would be a lot easier to move on. The pressure of trying to maintain privacy just got to be too much.

TWO: They don't text. They don't call. Clean break. Sometimes, when it's late and Henry's drunk, he pulls up their text thread and just reads through it. Once or twice he could swear he sees the typing indicator flash up for a moment, but it's always gone before he can figure out if it's just his imagination.

THREE: The first time Henry hears Can't Seem To Shake You he's on his knees in a club bathroom, Alex's voice barely discernible through the walls and over the throbbing bass. He almost thinks he can tune it out, but the start of the chorus knocks him straight through the solar plexus, and he ends up leaving the stranger unsatisfied and pissed off, walking home to try to sober up and with the lyrics circling around in his head: But you tell me I'm good and you laugh when you come, and you kiss the taste of yourself off my tongue

FOUR: The obsession with the subject of Alex's latest album reaches a frenzy most commonly associated with Taylor Swift's discography. There are thinkpieces and Buzzfeed quizzes and deep-dive Twitter threads analysing Alex's body language with every semi-famous person he's ever been photographed with.

(Henry appears in exactly one, but it's enough for him to see a noticeable bump in book sales.)

FIVE: It's Pez who first messages Henry when Storm Your Castle is released on streaming. Henry listens to it fourteen times, crying on the floor of his bedroom, and then he picks up his phone, scrolls down to Alex's contact, and hits Call.

Five facts AU *cracks knuckles*: D&D AU with Alex as one of the adventuring party and Henry as the grandson of the shapeshifter dragon queen

xoxo MJ/kiwiana-writes

ooh, yes please!

The only reason Alex handed over the sword to begin with was because Henry had asked nicely. If he'd known at the time that Henry would later hold it to his throat and tell him that the only way for him to live in this life was for Alex to meet him in the next one, he might have held on to it for a few more hours before he'd parted with it.

When he'd come of age, Henry refused to embrace the scorching fire that was the right and revelry of his royal family line, choosing the impossible task of embracing logic, law, reason and rhetoric over the screaming rage and crushing rage of the monarchs before him in the line. Even now, almost a century later, he still fights to hide the scars on his neck from every swallowed flame.

Alex had bet their first kiss would taste like the cherry spice of spring wine, and Henry had bet him that it would taste like the ember and ash of coal-roasted chestnuts when the first autumn leaves hit the ground. They both lost, sliding Nora a cool twenty gold apiece when their first kiss was a shot of the summer sun with a goblin blood chaser, the carnage of the Battle of Helion still fresh on the ground around them.

Nora has a plan, on the metagame level, to betray the party and kidnap Henry's cunty dragon grandma to sell her to the rebels currently planning a siege of the capital. The party plans a peaceful exchange for hostages, but honestly Nora is tired of the bigoted bullshit Pez has to come up with as their DM. Only June knows of her betrayal. However, Henry does know about her plan to double-cross her betrayal and use the threat of death to barter for even greater stakes. No one knows about her plan to triple-cross them all and slit the old bitches throat herself. Long live rogues, long live Equestria.

No one ever guesses, but the truth of the matter is: it's Henry who brought Alex to the table. Henry, who's love for stories pushes him outside of himself and into the very-much-not-a-math-gay world of character sheets and stat boosts; Henry, who comes home for months with his face practically split in two with joy as he replays for Alex a story of epic proportions, a tale to rival Lord of the Rings with arguably way hotter elves. Henry, who one night drags Alex along when bar trivia is cancelled and, tray of fruity pebble rice krispies in hand, introduces him to a world of heroism, of chivalry and slaying and as many conquerable villains as Pez has the time to throw at them (and the dice have the willingness to help them defeat). So it may be Alex who falls harder, enamored with the ability to now love Henry in a million different lifetimes every other Thursday. But it will always be Henry who fell first.

one muse holding the other up against a tree. (Monroe pinning Kim)

It was raining, and the couple were planning where to put their future business that they had discussed earlier. The car was a bit too far to just run to, so they decided to stay under a tree, where while they still got wet, they'd still be able to servey the area.

It was only when Monroe slipped up on the wet ground, he pins Kim against the mighty oak, his hands surrounding both sides as he breathed heavily against her, lips just about to touch each other as the rain hits them from just under the tree's branches.

Nobody else would be there to catch them doing anything, as he somewhat hiked her upwards when he pinned her, young adult bodies touching against each other waiting for one to make the first move.

how about tanitachi with the "enamor me" prompt from the "drabbles: send me characters and a prompt" post?

Leave a “Enamor Me” in my ask, and I will write a fluffy drabble characters trying to woo one another [be it out of the blue/Valentines Day, feel free to specify.]

------

A day like any other, just a regular Monday morning before work. Tachihara had been sent down to the cafe for drinks for the office, and he was waiting patiently for the order to be prepared. A cough from behind him had him turning around, tense and ready to fight.

One of the Port Mafia goons, Tachihara, was standing there, looking particularly....awkward? "Hey."

".....hi?" Tanizaki replied, more than a little confused. Was he not here to fight? Wait, was the truce still intact?

"Um, I know we got off on the wrong foot and everything," Tachihara said slowly. "Can we start over?"

"What do you mean?"

Tachihara looked away, searching for words, and long moments ticked by in silence. Finally he sighed and dug in his pocket, pulling out a coin. He activated his ability, turning it into a flat piece of metal, before curling it into a rough flower shape. Without a word, he offered it over.

Tanizaki took the metal flower, both surprised and moved. "That's....nice." In spite of the few words, his tone was suitably impressed.

"I know it's nothing compared to what you can do." Tachihara shrugged. "So uh. About my earlier question...?"

"Can we start over? Sure."

"Great!" Tachihara let out a relieved breath. "So....dinner sometime?"

Spill it! Five things you hate about Alucard

"Oh goodness. It should be easy, but my friend. He is my best friend. Forgive me in advance @askadrianalucardtepes

He acts like he's better than me. He is not.

He's one to call me a smelly alcoholic. Look in the mirror, brother.

He lauds the fact that he can read and I cannot over my head.

An absolute neat freak. One things out of place and he's lecturing me. For what reason?"

He acts like he's had the hardest life when he came from a loving family and everything was more fine and normal than mine and Sypha's. And yet we're the ones supporting him.

Is that too harsh?"

@cambius sent: ❛ you are dazzling and terrifying - those words are not as removed from one another as you may think. ❜

"i do not think them removed."

there is beauty to be found in terror. fear is, to lae'zel's mind, a prey instinct: necessary for survival in whatever degree governs sense and doubly a source of shame. yet to feel the hair on her neck rise and her skin prickle with awe — the sensation is not so distant from enjoyment.

the line of her neck stretches as she nods skyward. "ascended githyanki ride the red dragons gifted to my people by the goddess tiamat. there is beauty in such an immaculate predator; the twofold brutality of steed and rider is awe-striking to behold."

there is something likewise draconian in the way lae'zel eyes nepharia. she begins circling her, appraising. the woman speaks either truth or a silver-tongued ruse. "do i terrify you? does your pulse quicken in your throat?"

Sigh. Fuck Nora, Marry June, Kill Alexis. I can't kill June's best friend and then marry her, and marrying June is the one thing that I don't need to mentally debate here, lmao. Also, Alexis would probably make the afterlife a party. I'm sure that's in a fic somewhere.

What are your top five songs to listen to when you need a really good cathartic cry?

You probably will not be surprised by the fact that almost all of these are songs from musical theatre:

No Voice from Bare (do not come near me)

With You from Ghost: The Musical

She Used to Be Mine from Waitress

Flying Away from Fun Home

And Have You Ever Seen the Rain now never fails to make me cry because of my dad, lol.

firstprince tailor shop au

ONE: Henry doesn't find out until much later, but when Alex was first approached about taking on tailoring work for HRH Prince Henry of Wales, Shaan gave him the full NDA—the one that gets given to Oxford hookups and guests staying at Kensington—not the slightly more abridged one external contractors and other service providers receive. If pressed, he would of course insist it was a simple mistake. (Shaan does not make mistakes like that.)

TWO: The first time they meet, Alex spends 40% of the time ripping the absolute piss out of whoever was tailoring Henry's suits before Alex came along, 25% of the time talking shit about the entire concept of a monarchy and everything he hates about living in the UK, and the remaining 35% of the time moving his hands around Henry's body as he takes measurements in a way that is both completely professional and utter torture for Henry.

THREE: The flirting never stops. It's overwhelming: half the time Henry is half-naked, or Alex is on his knees, or both, and Henry just has to grit his teeth and not react.

FOUR: Henry and Shaan arrive one day, a few months in, with instructions from Buckingham: ensure that Henry's depression-related weight loss isn't noticeable, because it isn't seemly. The resulting stream of absolutely infuriated Spanglish on Henry's behalf is the moment Henry falls in love for real.

FIVE: It's not the innuendo, in the end, that goads Henry into finally kissing Alex. It's the look in his eye one day when he smoothes the lines of Henry's suit jacket into place, the way he calls Henry beautiful with no hint of a tease in his expression.

🌼 - How old are they? (Or approximate age range)

✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?

🧊 - Is their current design the first one?

💀 - Does your OC have any phobias?

For Mona canon/ Laserhawk and Floyd! : D

For Canon Raymona, she's over one hundred and twenty years old. Captain Laserhawk Raymona is in her 50's/60's but this is up to change if we get some confirmation on Rayman's age in future episodes of Captain Laserhawk. Both Raymonas don't look a day past her 20's.

Floyd is in his early 30's

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

Canon and CLH Raymona's best memories depend on if she's shipped with Rayman or not.

If shipped with Rayman: it's always going to be their first date together. Rayman's always gotta take his partner stargazing and that was the first date. Canon Universe they go stargazing outside the fairy council. CLH Universe Rayman took her to the roof of Murfy's place and they just sat there watching the stars all night.

If not: Canon and CLH Raymona's best memories are when she first met Rayman when she was a wee little bean child. Raymona didn't have very many friends growing up in the glade. Ly and Betilla introduced the two and they spent the entire half of the year together. That's something that applied to both Canon and CLH Universe. Their first meeting is the same. They've been looking out for each other since.

For Floyd: His best memory is when he first met Murfy. He was still a performer at the United of Eden. He was young and was trying to scrape money together to afford college to get his medical degree. It's very hard for Hybrids to get these kinds of jobs and the fees for college were high. This was Murfy's first time catching one of Floyd's shows and he remembers when the bug's jaw dropped when he first saw him. Feeling cheeky, Floyd would go to his table mid performance and begin doing gestures like running his claw gently beneath Murfy's chin. Turned the guy into a flustered mess. After attending a few more of his shows, Murfy got the courage to ask Floyd for drinks. The two chatted for HOURS. To those two, that time they spent chatting together they figured out really quick that they were soulmates. They started dating very quickly after that night and Floyd doesn't have any regrets.

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

Canon Raymona's worst memory is of the Robot Pirate Invasion and the effect it had on Rayman's mental health. She was one of his biggest supports during that time. Canon Raymona's not normally an angry or violent woman, but she curses the very name of Admiral Razorbeard for just how much he hurt everyone including her loved ones.

CLH Raymona's worse memory is when she was on one of her missions with Murfy. This was during a time before Bullfrog or Ramon joined the team so she was his primary field person. During the escape after a completed mission, she got her hair caught in a machine and she was almost scalped. She had to cut her hair to save her live and avoid severe damage. Since that day, Raymona's kept her hair cut short. She hasn't told Ramon about that event and doesn't know if she can without making him feel guilty about not being there to keep her safe. She just told him that she cut it and never really went into detail on why. Asking Murfy about it gets nothing because he won't share that story unless Mona gives him permission.

Floyd's worst memory was the day his parents died. He was a child when he lost both his mother and his father. His sister, Merideth, stepped up to take care of him after the event and became his guardian. He had a very rough childhood because of it, yet Merideth was trying her absolute best to provide for Floyd. Merideth was a teenager at this time. She fought very hard to keep what was left of the family together and refused to accept foster care for herself or Floyd.

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

Canon Raymona's design has stayed true appearance wise over the years. I do believe this was the first design I came up with. It's been so long since I originally created her. CLH Raymona actually went through a major design revamp. I had first created her back before Captain Laserhawk first announced. After the series launched and I watched everything, not only did Raymona go through a design change but also a major backstory overhaul.

Floyd's design? It never made it to paper. I've tried so hard to draw him but I fail at drawing Lion Hybrids. The design in my head was always the same. I like saying that he looks like a Lion Hybrid version of his voice claim: James Monroe Inglehart.

I'd love to commission people to help get a reference for the guy, but with my current financial situation, it won't let me spend money on things like commissions.

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

Canon Raymona doesn't have any phobias, but she does have a deep fear of Demona. It's not easy to get Raymona to be hesitant around your presence. The lady has made friends with a number of Rayman's old foes. Demona has caused so much harm to her loved ones that she's become terrified of her doppleganger. Even after she's able to function a lot better. It's very hard for her to share the same room with Demona.

CLH Raymona doesn't have any phobias. Neither does Floyd.

[ 🧬 ] how important is family to your muse?

Dominic loves his family, his family is everything to him. Not only does he care about them but he cares about their opinion of him more than anyone else’s. When he ran away in high school, along with all the outside factors and stress, he’d gotten it into his head that he was a disappointment to his family and that they’d be happier if he wasn’t around.

He would do anything for his family. He works for his grandfather, he is a total mama’s boy ( if she asked him to step into on coming traffic he’d ask her ‘which lane?’) and depending on which Alastor i am interacting with he considers his dad one of his best friends. (Looking at you Letsstaytuned)

Though I haven’t had a chance to interact with any other members of the hotel, Dom considers them family too and he adores them as well.

— zevran ask meme ; @starlatan asked: do i detect a bit of jealousy there? feeling territorial, are we?

"jealousy?"

the word is rolled against her tongue like a jagged stone. lae'zel, in her leather smallclothes, bears a scowling face and a cold flush under her neckflesh. (the sensation is unpleasant, prickling. a lesser mind might liken it to embarrassment.) she has no desire to find camaraderie with astarion, yet her night has already gone sour. she sits on her bedroll by the campfire and regards him pridefully.

"a jest, and a pitiful one," she snaps, loathe to admit that she has been jilted. "does your vampirism extend to preying on gossip?" (word has, admittedly, always traveled quickly around camp.)
