From an AU I made in which Chongyun receives a pyro vision and becomes a member of the Fatui, and Xingqiu/Chongyun end up becoming friends > enemies > lovers...... it's really good I swear (continues to not write it)

good god my obsession with infidelity is becoming a little bit concerning but hot women (so like all women) cheating on their mid-ass boyfriends/husbands with either their homoerotic girl best friend or "the other woman" in their relationship (who they used to scorn as cheap and a homewrecker as a scapegoat for the boyfriend's ungratefulness) ESPECIALLY in historical settings will always be a top tier trope for me and i will never not eat it up

#i do not condone cheating irl ftr #it is possibly my favourite trope ever after childhood best friends (to strangers/enemies) to lovers #what can i say i do not care about men. i love using them as pawns for adding angst to my toxic yuri and nothing else #faberry #cazzie #we are never ever getting back together #sophie gonzales #ashra #<- they're from my wip btw #kannagi x madhavi #kashi x mastani #tina x anjali #tinjali #brittana #gini #addybeth #kunti x madri #ignore these tags as they get progressively more unhinged please i swear im fine #but like all those hindu myths where the king had a zillion wives?? the POTENTIAL #vauseman #annaleve #avalouise #bhagiratha's moms (?) #we set the dark on fire #tehlor kay mejia

in 20 years they are evacuating everyone from revachol. new city, you didn't care to learn its name. kim's hand in yours. it's okay to feel lonely, you think. it will be alright. someday this place will feel like home, too.

you don't know it yet, but here, in the crowd, there is someone you knew two lifetimes ago.

(you will not meet her today, you will not meet her tomorrow - but it will happen, someday.)

forget friends to lovers. forget enemies to lovers. give me frenemies to lovers. "friends" who secretly hate each other and are constantly plotting against the other, acting like friends on the outside. the more time they spend together, the more they start catching feelings.

#imagine the possibilities the ANGST #they become friends with the other person for selfish reasons at first #but soon realize that they actually like this person and dont know how to come out with the truth #bonus if both of them did the same thing #if yall have any examples of this please let me know!! #writing prompt #prompt #enemies to lovers #friends to lovers #frenemies #frenemies to lovers #trope #book tropes #fictional tropes #fiction #movie tropes #tropes #ship #ship dynamics #ship dynamic #the only one i can think of is l and light from death note but they're not really a ship lmao

I wanted to bring up a silly ship idea. Just for fun.

03, 06, 09, 10

Was this before Kotoko attacked them? After? I dunno.

Thoughts?

YES the cringefail 20yo polycule 👏👏👏 Thank you for the request! I've seen a lot about the individual pairs, so it was really fun to think about all their dynamics together! I have a set of hcs that could work in the current canon Milgram, and then a normal au set because it's so fun thinking about them :3

Milgram-focused

The I’m-a-loner-who’s-doing-it-for-justice-don’t-TOUCH-me pair finally meet their match when confronted with the I-loved-someone-so-much-and-don’t-plan-on-stopping pair. They all go into the relationship with grand ideas of love: they think it’s all heroic acts of saving, massive gestures or love, and dramatic confessions. Over time, they realize the real heroism/romance is in the little things. 

Mahiru has her hands full with three people who neglect themselves for the sake of their work/interests, but she always loves feeding them and helping give them what they need. In turn, they can give her more affection and attention than she could ever ask for. They make sure someone is always around to spend time with her.

Each of the three is a perfect match for dealing with John’s reveal. Mahiru is calming and helps tone down Mikoto’s initial stress. Fuuta is honest and will help Mikoto finally confront his own situation and move forward. And since Kotoko can match his strength, Mikoto doesn’t need to be afraid of accidentally hurting anyone. Mikoto becomes less stressed with the overall situation as well as more accepting of himself/John.

I always love the idea that Fuuta is secretly starstruck by Kotoko and John’s strength. He’ll never admit how much he admires their ability to stand up and fight. He feels really safe around them. He’s glad to have the opportunity to fight for someone else, too – he likes to be Mahiru’s self-proclaimed protector and hero. (Even though most of the time she can stand up for herself, she still likes letting him take care of her.)

Kotoko’s experiences let her hold solid conversations with everyone. She’s similar enough to Fuuta where they share some interests (social issues, schooling, etc.) She understands hard work and burnout to earn Mikoto’s respect. She understands physical strength to earn John’s. She has a lot of people-knowledge, so she can gossip and talk about Tokyo life to Mahiru (Mappi’s doing most of the ‘gossiping,’ but Kotoko has solid additions). She's a good listener and has a good memory, so everyone feels heard by her.

They start to rub off on each other. Mahiru and Mikoto learn to be a bit tougher in standing up for herself. Fuuta, John, and Kotoko learn to take a breath before jumping right to violence. They stay very much who they are, but pick up on just a few habits that make their lives easier.

Their styles also influence one another: Fuuta gets pointers from all three about piercing his ears (though it takes him a long time to get up the nerve to do it). Mahiru helps the others dress more trendy and boost their confidence, and they teach her to worry less about her appearance and relax more. 

If they get together T1, Kotoko is shocked by the T1 verdicts. She might pull away from everyone in initial horror, but after developing a relationship ahead of time, she doesn’t follow through with her attacks. If not, then maybe in T3 when Kotoko is suffering from her guilty verdict, Mahiru and Mikoto are able to bridge the gap and develop a friendship, leading to more. Fuuta would take longer to come around, but I think seeing Kotoko got through the same pain as him, his hero instincts would kick in and he’d gradually help. 

Normal-au

Mahiru once again tries out her lovers’ interests, and gets a bunch of new hobbies. Fuuta teaches her to game, she works out with Kotoko, and she tries out photography with Mikoto. She becomes close with Fuuta’s beautician sister, and enjoys bonding over fashion and hair. She helps redye Mikoto’s hair, and give the other two pointers on style now and then. When going to nicer events, she and Mikoto have to step in and stop the others from their sneaker/hoodie combos. As the only one with a license, she’s the designated driver at all events, but doesn’t mind. 

Fuuta uses his tech skills to set up social media accounts for the others. He helps Mahiru network her flower shop, fighting anyone who leaves a bad comment/review. He helps set up a complex online portfolio for Mikoto. He and Kotoko still have a passion for justice, and he becomes the tech brains behind her vigilante operations (very Ron Stoppable - Kim Possible) It’s not necessarily healthy growth, but they’re happy with it lmao

Mikoto is the only full-time worker, the others are all still in university, and he makes sure to keep them all on track. He knows the most efficient tricks and cheats about getting papers done, pulling all-nighters, and cramming before an exam. The others have learned to spot when he’s burning himself out for others, and will stop him when he tries to take on too much. They’ll take care of him and force him to rest. While he can still get into a bit of trouble, John learns to call them first and get some help. 

Kotoko has trained herself to find people and information easily to catch criminals, but she finds use for it in much more mundane ways – she tracks down clients for Mahiru, snoops around Mikoto’s company to make sure he’s being treated right, and keeps an eye out for the people Fuuta is calling out and/or hanging out with. She goes on runs with Mahiru, and bike rides with Mikoto. Fuuta tags along sometimes to strengthen his legs for soccer. 

There’s definitely potential for them all to have their murders pre- or mid- relationship, and they help one another improve themselves and heal. I’m also a sucker for the relationship itself to cause them to change their ways and narrowly avoid the murder in the first place. (For the latter, Mahiru would ironically be the last to join the relationship, since she’d still be with her bf until the other three inspire her to break it off with him gently.)

Tumblr fucking Ate this post so I have to retype shit shckfhsjdhf

Anyway I am posting this (ever expanding) friendship portion of the chart because I need everyone to look at my Envy and Mobile friendship line and start ascribing to it. Why? Uhhh it's Extremely Funny and also Envy and Wallace would HATE IT.

(Also, from the discord: Kim has all those arrows around her because she's Toronto's Weed Dealer /hj but possibly not)

#honestly lucas feels like he would wanna be friends w everyone (Except For Todd. enemies or lovers ONLY /j) #but i dont feel like going back and figuring out how to do that rn so dgdjdhsjdjr #AHHH I FORGOT HIS AND STACEY'S FRIENDSHIP LINE THOUGH #i will be adding that one back in. it is a Must. and he needs a one sided line to Julie #also the line between kim and matthew in the original is what sparked that thread the other day #just for a Fun Fact from behind the scenes #ooc #txt #spto #spvtw #sp comic #kim pine #envy adams #scott pilgrim mobile #and im not taggin anyone else for just this chart! #i do want to note though that my note abt the twins and it being Absolutely Not possible is mostly in reference to any sort of reciprocatio #but i think it would be really funny if they did become friends. and then Kim proceeded to NEVER LET GO OF THE CAGE THING EVER #like ''you guys couldnt even bring me a BLANKET? seriously?'' type concepts at random maybe #headcanons #scott pilgrim headcanons #forgot those whoops

Been seeing posts around proposing Satine and Bo-Katan Kryze as respectively the Star Wars Elsa and Anna...

...given obvious visual and probably other parallels. And I do see what they see, this is the way. But just immediately hilarious to me on another level as Anna endgames with a more working-class dude with 'zero social skills', who starts off as not exactly her favourite person in the universe or at that to be stuck with. And whose dearest companion is assuredly non-human because humans are overrated as at least half the song goes (facts though, Kristoff -- where is the lie). Perfection.

#Way too many candidates out of 3 seasons to be singing Fixer Upper to Bo-Katan...way too many. #And every clan of the Mandalorian diaspora are the trolls. #Saying fixer-upper would be the most diplomatic way of putting the Din Djarin damsel-in-distress era we are in. #Disaster Din #Din Djarin x Bo-Katan Kryze #Din x Bo-Katan #Din-Katan #Din Djarin and Kristoff Bjorgman both be thick boys. #Would Sven be more of a pet though? #Hard to think of him as anything less than family. #Even if more sibling dynamic than anywhere near the sacredness of parent-child. #Olaf and Sven are the brothers-in-law of each half of the family...why am I even secondguessing myself. #Din's zealotry would be more the counterpart for Anna being called out for getting engaged to someone she just met that day though #so gender flip with that. #You can DIE TRYING to redeem yourself to your cult if It's True Love. #enemies-to-friends-to-lovers road trip shenanigans #the Armourer and all the rest would be the Prince Hans equivalent in terms of potential villain reveal then #They better sleep with one eye open for me after possibly sending Din Djarin to his Admiral Akbar trap in the mines of Mandalore. #The entirety of the internet is losing its mind over literally one episode #and I am just chilling here and cackling🍷🍾. #crack for the tag #Thought we could use a little lightheartedness in here given all the incoming infighting in this fandom should this ship sail⚔. #dinbo

Seriously, we’re all sleeping on the concept of a soul nemesis au

Like in a soulmate au, fate tells you that you’re going to fall in love with someone, and you do it. But it is so much juicier if fate tells you that you’re going to fight and hate and possibly kill someone and instead you say 'fuck you to that'

The drama of enemies to lovers!! The futility of struggling against destiny and cursing the gods of a cruel universe! The beauty of finding love in the most unexpected places, of taking a horrible situation and making it your own! The tragedy of when another person is going to destroy you whether they want to or not but it would destroy you just as thoroughly to destroy them first, and so all you can do is find the gentlest way to shatter your own heart!!

Literally what more could you want

#i'm 60k words into a soul nemesis au and this is the best au idea i have written #please other people take this idea and run with it #it's so much fun #soul nemeses #fanfic tropes #my post #and this isn't even going to playing a soul nemesis au straight where they start and end as enemies #or tragic detours of enemies to friends/lovers to enemies #there are so many possibilities here #soul nemesis au

Summary:

After Harry hears some rumours about Malfoy, he becomes more and more curious until he just has to get some answers. Malfoy is more than prepared to give him anything he needs, just as long as he gets something back in return. Harry’s not sure why he’s surprised that it’s something moderately illegal. In which Ron continues to get far too many eyefuls, Hermione has had quite enough with everybody, and Harry’s not sure why enemies to friends to friends with benefits isn’t enough for him. OR Harry becomes incredibly curious, and somewhere along the line ends up accidentally falling in love with Draco Malfoy. Because of course he bloody would.

Excerpt:

“You only asked one question,” Malfoy said quietly. 

“Two,” Harry corrected him. “But only one from my list.”

“We’re never going to get through it at this point.”

 “I don’t think I want to get through it,” he said. “I don’t think I want this to stop.”

 They were so close together that he could hear it when Malfoy gulped uncertainly. He could see the hesitation in Malfoy’s eyes that were inexplicably grey, he realised, such a pretty colour that, when you were close enough, you would realise had some specks of blue in them as well. They reminded Harry of a sunny day covered by some grey clouds, the sky fighting to break through. His lips, Harry noticed, were pale pink of a similar shape to Ginny’s, but Harry couldn’t help but look at them differently. He couldn’t help but look at all, in truth. He couldn’t tear his eyes away from them. 

 These lips that had captured so many others, that had been placed upon the things with no innocent intention at all. Those things, all of them, were not Harry’s, and suddenly the monster inside him that had long been quiet since he and Ginny, was growling again, because Harry knew he didn’t like the idea of Malfoy with anybody else. No matter how hot it was to watch, or to fantasise about, he wanted Malfoy himself. He wanted those lips upon his, and upon his everywhere. 

 And then Malfoy kissed him, and the world stopped. 

 Harry could feel Malfoy’s hands on his tilted neck, his fingers stretching up to bury deep into his hair as he sat, paralysed, his heart beating ten times too fast in his chest and his eyes still wide open - why were they open? -   staring into the scrunched up eyes of the man who he had thought about so much over the past–

 He pulled away before Harry could register anything, and Harry had a sudden realisation struck upon him that he looked nervous. He was scared, Harry realised, he was scared, but was that because he had regretted what he had done? 

 Harry stood up from his position on the desk and Malfoy backed away, seemingly afraid of what would happen if he didn’t. He took a step forward, and Malfoy stepped backwards, his thighs hitting the desk behind him. For a second, Harry felt like he was cornering some prey. Malfoy’s fingernails dig into the wood beneath his hands, arms stretched backwards. He looked frightened, and Harry was reminded of the poor sixteen-year-old boy that had taken the same position, his hands clasped instead onto a sink, back then. The boy who thought he would lose everything. Harry supposed, in a way, he had. 

 “Potter,” Malfoy said quietly. “I’m sorry, I thought–”

 Harry didn’t reply, didn’t interrupt him, but Malfoy ceased to speak as he watched him take another step forward. They were close again, Harry was invading Malfoy’s personal space, and he wondered what made the man so worried. Surely he realised that, at that moment in time, he couldn’t have wished for anything more suiting?

 Harry took a deep breath before taking a final step, and he placed his hands gently onto Malfoy’s hips, which were so unlike hips that he’d been able to touch before this. Malfoy’s hips weren’t as wide, as curved as Cho’s were, or Ginny’s, and Harry found himself slightly admiring it. 

 He nudged his nose next to Malfoy’s, quietly thanking that Malfoy was looking down, as otherwise, Harry might’ve had to go on his tiptoes. He could feel the hot breath against his mouth and suddenly was overcome, he had to lean in, he had to get those lips back on his, or else he knew that he would regret it. 

 Harry kissed him softly, his hands tightening automatically on Malfoy’s body, and their eyes both fluttered shut. It wasn’t until Harry felt Malfoy start to move with the kiss that he felt, in the pit of his stomach, a deep desire start to grow like fire. Harry felt Malfoy’s palms sliding up his neck again as their lips moulded, and he felt gone. 

Gone.
