#fictional relationships

Mind you I will be spending the rest of this valentine's evening obsessing over fictional character's relationships instead of my nonexistent one 😍

Oh man, I really love wholesome AUs where my OTPs have happy lives together - with or without kids. Which is strange because I don't want kids and am ambivalent about finding a partner. Idk, maybe, because I kinda like to imagine some of them as stable, which is unfortunately something that I want but can't realistically have for many reasons. So, I just draw or write them out.

Something like what is shown below.

Welcome to late night thoughts, thots,

When describing fictional relations there is three and not two categories.

The two currently popular:

- ‘You look beautiful’

- ‘Screaming and crying’

I propose a third option to make it a triangle, and which characters I think fit exactly in the category:

- ‘God, you make me crazy’

Characters including,

-JJ Maybank,

-Isaac Lahey

-Natasha Romanov

-Merlin (BBC Merlin)

- And so many more …

and so will probably start making diagrams for all of my fav shows to back this theory up, as some people DEFINITELY sit between two points.

Have fun dissecting your fictional relationships with fake characters because you can’t form a real one folks.

I’ll be doing the same :)

much love xoxo

"I want my fictional relationships to be healthy." "I want my fictional relationships to be fucked up."

I want whatever the fuck's more interesting for the story at hand. Some stories lend themselves well to fucked up interpersonal relationships. Others better to healthy relationships. But i want whichever is gonna make it more interesting.

A couple battling a beast while having a relationship argument is meh maybe a heavy handed metaphor. A healthy couple getting married while in the middle of a sea battle (ala pirate) is absolutely delightful.

A couple making goo goo eyes at each other at a family dinner that's going well is meh. A couple passive aggressively having an argument in the middle of a dinner that everyone is trying to remain polite through that's fantastic.

Fucked up v. healthy is a stupid as dynamic for fiction. It's is this shit interesting and that's all that matters.

Here’s the thing about me, if a couple in fiction started off as friends (like actual friends who get along. Not fighting or insulting each other, actual friends) i will always be a little sad when they become a official romantic couple. Because i always prefer friendship to romance.

#personal opinion #fictional relationships #I love it when someone is willing to fight any fight and change to world for them sake of their friends #the power of true love (platonic) > the power of true love (romantic)

Some het shipper smush names are embarrassingly bad. I just came across one from The Hunger Games.

Finnick and Annie = Fannie.

I think Annick would have worked better.

I’ve noticed recently that I’m kind of done with will-they/won’t-they relationships on TV. Idk if it’s because after discovering Mad About You and Madam Secretary before that I realized that a good, healthy stable marriage where the two characters genuinely like each other and are friends is way more enjoyable than the stress of wondering if a couple is going to get together. And then a lot of times when a will they/won’t they couple gets together, the build up to it is the only part of the relationship that’s exciting. A lot of writers don’t seem to know how to write established couples and make them interesting. Or they throw a lot of drama at them to “keep it interesting” (ASP with Luke and Lorelai. That could have been a great relationship if ASP and DP just let them be a happy couple after getting together at the end of season 4, but the drama in season 6 tarnished the whole relationship for me, tbh). The exception to this is John and Aeryn on Farscape.

Also I really love Johnny/Moira on Schitt’s creek.

Write Like a Sadist: Tips and Tricks for Torturing Your Ships!

Hello and welcome back to WLAS! The place to be if you want everyone reading your stories to suffer!

Tip 1: Does your ship have issues? Big issues? Such as fundamentally different worldviews or polar opposite ways of thinking? Many ships do, and in a good story that ends in a confrontation that either brings them closer or pushes them to break up, well we hear at WLAS don’t write good stories, we write ‘fuck you’ stories! Have there be a major source of contention that both of your characters tip-toe around and snap at each other about and NEVER resolve it! There should be NO catharsis! DO NOT CATHART!!! Tip 2: Does one of your characters have a significant amount of trauma? I bet they do! One way to make your readers scream at you through the pages of your story is to have that character open up about it to their love interest, only for the love interest to be a massive asshole about it! It may ruin that character and the whole relationship, but as we always say at WLAS, ‘make everyone suck and be awful all the time, no exceptions’.

That’s all for today, folks! And remember, writing isn’t about relationships, it’s about destroying them!

You know what I love? Healthy relationships in fiction. Miss me with all that toxic bullshit, I want to see characters head over heels for one another. It doesn't even have to be all lovey dovey (though I'm a sucker for that too). Just show that these characters genuinely care about, respect, appreciate, and most of all, fucking love one another. Please and thank you.

Suddenly having feelings about all those women who are expected to do the emotional labor for men and who must pretend to be unaware of the guys' romantic feelings in order to avoid social pressure to accept them because he's such a 'nice guy'

I absolutely love the relationship between John and Rose, because of how well John’s gooberness and Rose’s wit gel together when they interact.

They ping-pong off each other's quips and jokes, but they still both care about each other. Definitely not a romantic relationship, more like a "i've known this person for so long that I can read them like an open book" kind of relationship. Pesterchums, even.

I want a fanfic where it’s just these two on a road trip or something.

I'm just throwing out an idea while attending to my garden of boundless wips but just imagine the compound getting attacked and the one area that's the most damaged is the lab. Hackers want to steal all the Stark technology and they stop at nothing, waiting for the team to leave before they destroy the building, blowing the structure till it crumbles. The only one still remaining in the building is the lab tech.

The jet nears the compound; Tony and Steve are already suited up again while Sam adjusts his wings, Nat and Clint armed and ready to go.

Everyone but Bucky.

"Tony was anyone still in the building?" His face is filled with horror, staring at the smoke emitting from the areas that were hit, his heart hammering against his chest.

"My lab tech, y/n, she was still working when we left" Tony ran a hand over his face and the color drains from Bucky's cheeks.

"WHERE IS SHE" Bucky does everything in his power not to lose control, snapping back into soldier mode and strapping his weapons, shoving past Steve so he can jump out first as they near the compound.

"Barnes its okay, we'll find her" Tony reassures him but he can't hide the confusion on his face because why on earth was Bucky this concerned over his lab assistant. They had never spoken a word to each other, in fact he didn't even realize Bucky knew you existed.

"She's pregnant!" Bucky had never sounded so scared in his life, pulling himself together to keep from breaking down.

"What-when-how-how do you know" Tony had never felt more confused in his life while the others all whip their heads around, shocked at what he'd just said.

"That's my wife"

The jet doors open and Bucky is the first one out, sprinting through smoke and flames till he gets to the worst part of what's left, debris and rubble scattered over the floor. Bodies hit the floor as he takes out anyone that he sees without a second guess. He frantically searches, holding back his emotions till he spots the broken glasses first. Dust and crumbles cement cover your unconscious form, blood dripping from you forehead and he doesn't pause to try and wake you up himself.

She's in his arms and he's rushing to the med wing while the rest of the team trail behind him, seeing as he's already killed anyone that broke in. Once your taken in, all he can do is wait, pacing up and down the hall till he's given the all clear to see you. He sits by your bed, desperately holding onto your hand, Steve being the first to check on his best friend while the the others quietly enter after.

No one breathes a word till you finally open your eyes, giving you and Bucky privacy till you're ready to see the others. He's tucked into bed with you as they enter, his arm wrapped around your tummy, rubbing soft circles with his metal hand. You weren't showing much yet, seeing as it was still early on.

"Okay, spill, when did you marry my lab tech" Tony playfully teased while Bucky blushed, hugging you closer.

"Last year" He admitted, while Steve smirked, coming over to check on you.

"Doing okay sweetheart?" The blonde asked, plopping down on a chair beside your bed, smiling when you nodded, "How's my godchild"

"You knew?" Sam wacked Steve's shoulder only to be met with a snicker from both soldiers.

"Who do you think was the bestman" The captain smiled proudly while you giggled, giving Tony a sheepish smile.

"I was gonna tell you Mr. Stark"

"When, did you think I wouldn't notice a little super soldier running around the lab?" He cocked an eyebrow with a smile.

"You knew?" Sam repeated, still deeply offended while Steve shook his head, kissing your forehead before getting up so you could get some rest. The rest of the team followed after, deciding to bombard the two of you with questions after you'd slept.

"YOU KNEW?"

"Give it a rest Sam"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Almighty Captain, Never lies, Sir Honest A Lot, YOU KNEW?"

"Sam"

"YOU KNEW?!"

I'm sorry, this wasn't the most organized drabble, just an idea I wanted to toss out into the world.
