what are the biggest problems you have with dair. i don’t really ship blair with anyone so im kinda indifferent to both db and cb so i was just curious what it is you don’t like about them? :)

Mainly, the timing of it and how it came to be. Season 5 is what made me dislike them so much.

I really enjoyed their friendship in S4, their dynamic was fun, and the way they became reluctant friends seemed natural, even good for them. at this point in the show they had invested too much of themselves on significants others that had let them down, and Serena had Ben, and Chuck had Raina, and so it was fair for Dan and Blair to try to move on too; and it wouldn’t had been so weird for them to get together after all, they were friends now, were spending a lot of time together and had a lot of interests in common, in the end they would have realize that they worked better as friends and had an amicable break up.

But having them date at S5 at that precise moment was awful. For starters Blair is at an all time low. Not too long ago she was in a horrible accident, lost a baby, the love of her life almost died, She’s literally trapped in marriage for a year, a marriage her mother, her best friend and Chuck (the people that love her the most) begged her to not go through with. So she’s basically counting Dan as the only one of her friends she can be close to, he knows about it, and he’s like well I have feelings for you, so you either date me or we can’t be friends any more. It’s selfish, he knows how affected she is and if he really loved her we would have been there for her without putting her in the spot like that, who was to say she wouldn’t, have felt in love with him in the long run? And also she’s freaking married and not only that but the dowry is hanging over her head, and again he knows all of this, and he just... doesn’t care.

Also the show was really tasteless at having them kiss at the hospital while Cece’s dying, Serena considered Dan to be the love of her life, and Blair knows this, she was actually trying to get them together the previous episode, by all accounts she knows she shouldn’t date Dan and the show realized how bad this looked and that’s why they have Serena give her permission but sorry, is not enough, it makes Blair even more self centered than ever, because she’s basically making Serena have to watch the guy she is in love with date her best friend and the worst part? Blair’s not even really in love with the guy she’s just distracting herself from all her problems and pain over her situation. Yes I know Serena wasn’t always the perfect friend, but up until now Blair hadn’t disregarded Serena’s feelings in such a way.

And in more frivolous points they do nothing for me as a couple. Dair was really obnoxious as a couple, that episode where they had that saloon is so annoying, they always seemed concerned about only them, Blair practically ditches all her friends for that brief period. They didn’t have that spark, they may have being intellectually compatible (how pretentious is that) but Blair never saw him as an equal and he didn’t really get her either, he literally says at one point “I thought she had change” he likes her the best when she’s acting mellow, and even when it was obvios she was in denial or making a mistake he just enables her, when he takes her to the steps of the Met dressed as a princess it may seem cute on the surface but being like “so you can feel like a princess one last time” it’s no only a bit patronizing but the message she needed to hear was “you don’t need to be a princess, you’re powerful and better than that, you’re a queen in your own righ” or something like that, Blair needs people that challenges her and also called her out when need to, Dan was basically just fell in a routine of telling her what she wanted to hear. All in all I feel they were not good to each other and it also left a bad taste in my mouth that out of all her relationships this one feels really more like her running away from her feelings, a ditch last attempt of not dealing with her relationship with Chuck, it’s just so pointless in the long run

I guess I could go on forever but this is getting so long

Another ModernAU short draft ♥ ♥ ♥ 1700-ish words.

Another fairly uneventful day was finally coming to a close. The clock signaled the arrival of the final quarter of Edward's shift, and he gazed longingly out the window and into the courtyard. Days like this made for easy money, but he'd be damned if he wouldn't rather be just about anywhere else on such a beautiful day.

"Don't worry, Ed. You're in the home stretch now." Daniel chuckled, making his way into the room with two mugs of coffee. He placed one of them on the desk near Edward's elbow, and sunk back into his chair with a grunt. "What, two more hours?"

"That'll probably feel like another eight." Edward sighed tiredly, lifting the ceramic to his lips and taking a sip. "Thanks for fresh cup.”

"Hey, no problem." Daniel pulled an excess of creamer and sugar packets from his pocket, and Edward chuckled. It was far from the first time it'd happened, and he was sure it'd be far from the last either. "Y'know... whoever said cargo pants are useless was a goddamned fool."

"Solid point." Edward smirked. "I mean... what'd you manage to squeeze into all those pockets? Half the coffee bar?"

Dan laughed wickedly. "Smartass."

Edward sighed, a contented smile on his face as he looks around. His attention was seized by a figure drawing nearer to the window; a slender woman with a trendy blonde bob, his age or a little older, and wearing an outfit that he could pin as neither casual nor dressy.

She took little notice of him; her gaze had immediately honed in on Daniel, who had just taken notice of the peculiar look on his coworker's face. When he heard a gentle tapping on the glass, he turned to greet this new guest.

"Hey, you old codger." She grinned, laughter in her voice. "Still working here?"

"Heeeyyyy, nice to see you, too." Daniel laughed that ornery laugh of his, rising to his feet and striding over to the window to greet her. "How the hell ya been, kid? Been a while!"

"Doing well, actually. Finally found a nice little place to settle into nearby."

"You back in town then?"

"Yep. Have been for a few months now, actually. Finding my footing, settling in, what-have-you. Finding a decent job, and don't even get me started on the moving process." She sighed, as if to recall just what a hassle it had all been. "What about you?"

"Still here. Can't complain." He smiled warmly. "Don't do any good even if I do, so..."

"Doesn't hurt to try, at any rate, does it?"

Edward watched the exchange in silent confusion, sipping at his coffee. Daniel certainly seemed familiar with the young woman, and that wasn't a terribly common thing to see. He was becoming more and more curious as to how she knew him.

"You're more optimistic than I am." Daniel grumbles. "But, hey, I doubt you're just here to shoot the shit with this old codger, right?"

"It's been nice, Dan, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't come here to see someone else."

"I figured as much. Lemme get 'im on the horn."

Daniel turned and walked a few paces to grab his radio, and the woman leaned in just a bit to survey the security room as she waited. Her wandering eyes stumble across Edward's pensive form and she does a double-take; it took her a moment to place it, but she was certain that this was the man she'd seen in Jack's company during a fair few of her shifts. She smiled warmly at the recollection, and offered a small wave, which he awkwardly returned.

"'Ey, Jack, you copy?"

"Daniel? What is it?"

"Ya' got a visitor down here."

"A visitor?"

"Yeah. Waitin' down here by the security office."

"Now who on Earth-"

Daniel quickly switched channels on his radio, knowing that Jack was about to barrage him with a slew of questions he didn't particularly feel like answering. Plus, he had no doubt the resulting anger would make the doctor's trip downstairs even more hasty. The old guard smirked confidently. "He'll be right down."

"That's one way to do it." The woman was impressed by just how bold Daniel had gotten since she last saw him. If she was being honest, she found that she quite enjoyed it.

As if on cue, they could hear the grinding of the staff elevator descending; with a loud ding, the doors slid open, and almost immediately, they could hear Jack's angry, nasally voice spilling out.

"Daniel, what have I told you about cutting me off like that?!" he spewed. "I can't always afford to come down here on such short noti-"

He came to an abrupt stop when the woman stepped into view, a calm smile on her face. "Hey, Jack."

"Em-..." He stopped dead in his tracks. It took him a full moment to digest it all; he looked as though he'd just seen a ghost, and seeing him that way left Edward feeling a little uneasy himself. "Emogene."

"Since you don't seem like you can be bothered to respond to any of my texts or calls," she spoke, a meaningful undertone in her voice. "- I thought it might just be easier to try stopping in to talk, one-on-one."

Jack sighed, guilt etched on his features as he nodded feebly in agreement. "Let's... follow me."

Daniel and Edward watched as the two walked out the nearby set of glass doors and into the courtyard outside. Daniel's gaze strayed, and he studied Edward's worried face for a moment before shifting his attention back outside, and back again. He smiled knowingly.

"Ed."

"Hm?"

"You can un-clench your buttcheeks now." Daniel chuckled. "Emogene is Jack's sister."

Edward tried to brush it off, but they both knew better. His cheeks darkened, and he waved his hand dismissively, both of them shifting their attention back to what was going on outside.

“Look, I know you’re on the clock right now, so I don’t want to keep you too long, I just...” Emogene drew a long breath and huffed a defeated sigh; or at least as defeated as she’d let herself sound. But Jack knew. “I miss you, Jack. I know I hurt you and mom when I took off back then, but I there were just some things I needed to do by myself, for myself. And I did, and I’ve grown... so much. I’m doing so much better now, Jack, and I’m trying to be a better sister, if you’d just give me that chance.”

“I told you, we could meet up some time-”

“Oh please, Jack, you’ve been making excuses and putting me on the back burner for three months now. You know, when you’re not outright ignoring me.” She crossed her arms and tapped her foot. “I see you having lunch all the time and you don’t even bother to say hello. “C’mon, if you can make time to have lunch with your guard in there like... three times a week, you can squeeze in some time for me-”

“Wha- how...” Her mouthfuls were loaded with accusations, none of which he found he could really refute, and her brother’s cheeks darkened in shame. The last one stung a bit more than he thought it might, though. He’d have stolen a glance back at Edward if he wasn’t concerned he’d be too obvious. “How did you...?”

“Because I’m the head event coordinator at the mall and I’m there just about every day. If you actually talked to me you might know that by now.” Her voice was scolding, but not excessively abrasive. Perhaps a sign of that personal growth she’d hinted to. “Look, I know that if you’re anything like you used to be... which, you probably are...”

Jack crinkled his nose at just how correct she was in her assumptions.

“ - that you’re probably just going straight home after work, and shutting yourself up in your study, and being a hermit for the rest of the night. Or entertaining mother’s whims.” Jack could detect a small bit of venom in her tone when she mentioned Wilhelmina, but she quickly recovered. “- I’ve got a pretty nice apartment now, and I’d love to have you over for dinner. I ... really wanna’ catch up. Hear what’s been going on with you. Maybe fill you in on what’s been up with me, if you give half a damn.”

The doctor’s stance softened, and his lips curled into a small smile. All this time and she could still read him like a book. But her idea was sounding... tolerable.

“I know a break from her did me good. Probably wouldn’t hurt you, either. I think we could finally act like... functional siblings for once if she’s not helicoptering over us and stirring the pot.”

Jack raised an eyebrow and cocked his head ever so slightly, and Emogene shrugged.

“... maybe. That might be asking too much. It’s worth a shot.” Her nose wrinkled at the thought, and she gave a playful shrug. “But if you come over and decide you still don’t really want to associate with me, I mean, I... guess that’s fine. At least you can say you gave it a shot.”

There was something a little heartbreaking in that last sentence, and it registered as a small ache in Jack’s chest. Had he really made her feel so alienated with his behavior?

“Just... give me that chance, Jack.”

He wasn’t sure he’d ever heard more sincerity in her voice in his whole life; it wasn’t delivered without her signature Emogene Cynicism, of course, but it was definitely there and more tangible than ever. She was letting her walls down enough to let him in. She was taking the initiative to repair the bonds that had been broken. And he was dodging her like a plague.

Who’s really the bad sibling in this situation, when I really think about it? He pondered for a moment. He didn’t like the conclusion he drew, but it was one he needed to accept. You need to do better.

“Actually, Emogene, that sounds... great.” He smiled weakly at her. There was a lot more he wanted to say to her. He had a lot to apologize for, for starters, but he supposed that could wait until he visited her apartment later. He supposed the lapse would give him more time to mentally prepare and rehearse it all. Besides, he was still on the clock. “What time?”

“Seven... ish?” She gestured vaguely. “But, uh... don’t tell mom about me. I’m... not ready for her to know I’m back home yet.”

Jack nodded solemnly and understandingly at her, and she beamed him a genuine smile.

“I’ll text you my address, okay?”

“I’ll actually open it this time.” her brother chuckled.

“Cute.” She snarled. “Anyway, I’ll be holding you to that. You better be there tonight.”

“I promise.”

4th year-secret admirer

One shot with an OC reader

Author: Jess

Word Count: 2389

“You can be really stupid sometimes, you know that, right?” I asked Ron and Harry as they competed against each other in a contest of their own creation in which they shove the most amount of roast potatoes into their mouths as they can. “I mean, for starters, you’re burning your tongues-“ I began, watching as they breathed out repeatedly like dragons breathing fire, “secondly, it’s disgusting to look at while I’m eating- and no Ron, I can’t ‘not look’ because you’re right in front of me!- and finally, YOU LOOK LIKE IDIOTS!” I finished, cringing at the amount of potato falling out of their mouths.

“Sorry” they both mumbled, causing even more potato to fall from their mouths, which resulted in a disapproving glare from both me and Hermione.

“Honestly you two, you should be studying! Exams are only five months away and-“

”Calm down ‘mione, we’ve got plenty of time” Ron interrupted her, and Hermione was about to speak again but stopped herself when she saw the look on my face, a look that said ‘it’s pointless, there’s no reasoning with them’. She clearly seemed to agree.

When Harry and Ron had eventually managed to swallow the remaining food in their mouths, an origami butterfly fluttered over to me and rested on my shoulder. I smiled at the beauty of the creation, but curiosity was clear in my eyes. I could feel Harry, Hermione and Ron’s eyes all on me and the piece of gorgeously folded paper, so I reached up for it and began unravelling it. It read:

‘To Y/N,

I’m glad at least you could get Potter and Weasley to stop their little contest, they’ve been doing it for days now with different foods and I haven’t been able to eat properly for weeks. I must say though, it was much more pleasant when they did it with brussel sprouts and carrots, despite Weasley’s constant gagging.

However, I’m not just writing to you to thank you for stopping the revolting antics of your friends, but to admit to you that I like you. And no, before your eyes dart down to the sender, this letter will remain anonymous as I believe that if you knew my identity, you wouldn’t be very happy. Although, I’d love to be able to talk to you. What would you say to corresponding now and again? All you have to do is write a letter and then tap your wand on the parchment while saying ‘complicare‘. Then your message will drift off to me, or a room in which I’ll collect the message-I really don’t want you knowing who I am.

I hope you get the chance to write back.

For now,

Anonymous.’

I stared at the parchment in shock-someone likes me? I allowed the guys to read my letter then immediately scrambled to find a quill and roll of parchment.

’To my secret admirer,

although ‘Anonymous’ has a nice ring to it, I’m not too sure that that’s good enough for me. Does Mr Anonymous have a last name? A year group? A Hogwarts house? I wouldn’t be surprised if you were in Ravenclaw, they’re always so damn cryptic.

And yes, I’d like to get to know you, despite it only being through writing. I do have one question though: will I ever know who you are?

Im not sure I can deal with too much mystery.

-Y/N

PS: sorry about Harry and Ron, they can be real gits at times.’

Once I finished writing, I tapped the parchment with my wand and muttered ‘complicare’. It immediately took shape of an origami robin and flew out of the great hall. Hermione advised me against correspondence, but I, for once, did what Harry and Ron told me to do-write them back and find out things that’ll eventually help me distinguish who they are.

It had been months since I received my first mystery letter, and I still had no idea who they were written by. However, we did have really good conversations about pretty much anything- I’ve learnt that he shares some classes with me, comes from a wealthy family and that his mother has been mysteriously widowed several times over- that conversation was particularly deep. I felt like I truly knew him and that we were really close, so what if I didn’t know his name? But Hermione has been very quick to criticise me, and even Ron and Harry have started to look concerned by how much we’ve spoken to each other without me ever getting the chance to know his name. I was curious, of course, but I don’t really care, I love talking to him, and if him telling me his name is going to stop our communication, I’d rather not know.

“Honestly, Y/N, how many times do I have to tell you, it could be dangerous and-“ Hermione began as I quickly unravelled an origami swan that just floated to me, smiling at the familiar handwriting.

“Honestly, Hermione,” I mimicked, “I don’t care. It’s not dangerous, and nothing that you say is going to stop me from talking to him. He’s one of my best friends, after you three of course.” Harry, Hermione and Ron exchanged glances, and I didn’t know why, but it annoyed me greatly. “You know what, guys? Screw you! I actually can’t deal with your judgment and your criticism,” I shot a pointed glare at Hermione, “and you’re all pissing me off, to be honest. Just leave me alone for now, yeah?!” I shouted, standing up from the table and storming off, not looking back to see my friends shocked faces and to be overwhelmed by the silence of the great hall and the confused looks I was receiving.

‘To Anonymous,

I know you were there in the great hall today, or you probably would have heard about what happened, so before you ask me about it, I’m just going to tell you what it was- well, actually, I don’t even know. I just sort of exploded. The guys have been on my back for a while now about still not knowing who you are and they’ve been desperately trying to get me to stop writing to you, but I don’t want to. I know your personality, and to me, that’s everything. There’s no judgement about families or predjudice-whether it be about blood status or Hogwarts houses. I think it’s better that I get to know your personality and what you’re like before judgment based on appearances creeps into the way, but the thing is, I already know what you’re like, so keeping your identity from me is just pointless now, I won’t let your name ruin this.

If I’m honest with you, I’ve started developing feelings for you too. In every letter you always mention how much you like me and I just thank you for it, but honestly, it was because I’m scared. You know my name, you know everything about me, but for all I know, you could be an annoying older-year playing a dumb prank on me. I can almost hear it now-“Ha ha! You thought someone actually likes you?! How stupid can you get?”

I guess what I’m trying to say is, I want to see you. I want to know who you are. So please, respond to this letter and tell me that you agree that we should meet. How are we supposed to....progress if all we are doing is writing to each other?

-Y/N’

I was in the Gryffindor common room and I had just sent my origami message when Harry, Hermione and Ron walked in. They looked at me, as if debating about whether to talk to me or to give me the space that I requested, but I pointedly diverted my gaze and picked up the nearest book. I heard Hermione sigh and walk up to the boy’s dormitory with them. We always did that-the four of us- because sometimes we wanted to talk to each other in private and the common room wasn’t the best place to do so, and when curfew came(8:45, which is incredibly early if you ask me), we couldn’t leave the common room, unless we used Harry’s cloak, but it was beginning to get a bit crowded under there. As boys can’t enter girl’s dormitories, the boy’s was the only solution.

It had been about two hours before an origami bee came buzzing towards me. I smiled in hope and anticipation of what the reply would include, but it immediately vanished as my eyes moved further along the page.

‘To Y/N,

I’d absolutely love to talk to you in person, but I just can’t. I’m sorry. Trust me when I say that you wouldn’t want to be talking to me-you’d be too disappointed in whom you’ve been corresponding. I’m a selfish person and I want our communication to continue, and if that means you not knowing who I am, then maybe that’s for the best. Again, I’m sorry.

From, Anonymous.

P.S How could you honestly think that no one would ever like you? You’re incredible!’

Tears sprang to my eyes as all of my hope vanished. I just wanted to see him, to hug him, to hear his voice instead of having to read his neat, cursive handwriting. Suddenly, a wave of anger washed over me, completely replacing my sadness. I don’t need him! There are loads of hot Durmstrang boys at Hogwarts due to the triwizard tournament taking place, maybe spending a bit of time with a few of them would take my mind off of whomever I’d been talking to....

It was the next day, and I woke up determined. I’d completely forget about my origami extraordinaire and talk to new people-people who I would actually know the name of. I got in the shower, changed into my uniform and applied a little bit of makeup, which drastically changed my appearance due to the fact that I almost never wore makeup. I passed Hermione, Harry and Ron on my way out of the common room and they all gawked at me as I passed, but I didn’t spare them a glance. I’d talk to them again soon enough, but for now, I had some Durmstrang boys to befriend.

I saw a group of Durmstrang boys sat at the Gryffindor table, so I made my way over to them, and politely asked if I could join them. “Of course!” One of them said, beckoning me over and making room in the bench next to him. I sat next to him-I found out his name was Oliver- and another guy called Alexander. I made a point of learning all of their names, but the other three boys that I sat with had quite traditional Bulgarian names that I couldn’t say, let alone remember. It didn’t really matter though because I grew particularly close to Alexander and Oliver. Just as I had said something to make everyone in the group laugh, the other members of the ‘golden quartet’ walked in and exchanged surprised looks at who I was sat with. I didn’t pay it any mind though.

It had been a few days since that morning and I hadn’t written to ‘Anonymous’ since, despite the floods of letters that he sent me, all begging for me to reply. I had made up with Harry, Ron and Hermione though, although I was being a bit more distant with them than before. I could tell that it bothered them slightly, but it seemed like they were walking on eggshells around me so I didn’t go off on another tangent. I’m guessing they thought that baby steps would work with me.

I was walking down one of the Hogwarts corridors with Oliver when we passed the infamous Slytherin trio: Draco Malfoy, Pansy Parkinson and Blaise Zabini. I was rather startled to see them sending death glares at Oliver, but we continued walking, until I stopped short when I felt Oliver reach for my hand. I pulled it away but he made to grab for it again, which I once again avoided. “What are you doing?” I asked him, walking with a slightly wider gap between us than before. He made a grab for my hand again and I pulled it out of his reach, “Oliver, stop!” I loudly shouted. I whipped around when I heard a growl erupt from none other than Blaise Zabini’s throat, and he growled at Oliver.

“Leave her alone!” Oliver just smiled and shook his head, almost condescendingly.

“Why should I? She clearly wants it,” he said.

“She clearly doesn’t!” Blaise spat back. I moved away from Oliver and stepped tentatively over to Blaise, Draco and Pansy. The last two friends were smiling at me comfortingly and protectively standing in front of me. Blaise, however, did not move his vision from Oliver. “How dare you treat her like that?”

I stared at Blaise in awe, and asked Pansy and Draco “why does he care about me?”

They just chuckled slightly, and then Draco whispered back “Who do you thinks been writing to you?” I gaped at him, then moved my eyes towards Blaise who was now threatening Oliver to stay away. Oliver eventually left, and when he did, Blaise turned to me. “Y/N, I’m so sorry about not telling you who I am, I just-“ he began but was interrupted as I slammed my lips onto his. He immediately responded and wrapped his arms around my waist as I wrapped mine around his neck. Our lips moulded together perfectly and I never wanted the moment to end, but alas, Blaise broke away from the kiss. “You don’t care? About me being a Zabini? You know what my family’s been....involved with in the past”

I just smiled at him. “Of course I don’t care, you’re not them. I know you, and you would never include yourself in that if you had a choice. I told you I wouldn’t judge you” I said. Blaise smiled back at me before reconnecting our lips again.

A Y/L/N and a Zabini? Unheard of, until at least Pansy gossiped to everyone about her best friend finding love, and, to confirm the rumours that she’d created, we were forced to walk into the great hall hand in hand, not that we really minded though.

[ 🍒 ] — gracing the tags with my presence before i go work on replies. hi. i’m elle. i’m mostly here for mxf shipping tbh, but i love platonic/family plots too. i have adhd which means i like jumping into things and figuring out what works and doesn’t without beating around the bush. send me memes!! send me ideas!! i love brainstorming. i have a bunch of muses right here & you can check out my open starters here.

if you’re curious about what fcs i like + what types of plots i’m interested in, click the read more.

come write with me!!!

🍒 FCS I WANT TO WRITE AGAINST 🍒

alfonso herrera, alvaro rico, chris pine, dacre montgomery, david giuntoli, edgar ramírez, jake gyllenhaal, kit harington, luke pasqualino, michiel huisman, oliver jackson-cohen, oscar isaac, ryan guzman, santiago cabrera, sean tealea, simon baker, tom ellis, tommy martinez, tyler hoechlin, zane holt, alicia vikander, alycia debnam carey, eleanor tomlinson, gugu mbatha-raw, imogen poots, johanna braddy, lupita nyong'o, margot robbie, oona chaplin, poppy drayton, ruth negga, saoirse ronan, shelley hennig, shannon purser, zendaya, zoey deutch.

🍒 PLOTS I’M INTERESTED IN: GENERAL VIEW 🍒

drama, over-the-top drama, cheesy drama, angst, romance, manipulation, lying, cheating, pregnancies, horror, supernatural, ghosts, historical, crime, royals, modern royals, fake relationships, unrequited feelings, bad timing. you can check a few plots i’d like to do here.

🍒 PLOTS I’M INTERESTED IN: SPECIFIC 🍒

if fandom isn’t your thing, i’m also v interested in rl / historical plots. you can find a list of those here.

CHOICES GAME APP & STORYSCAPE: plots based on: titanic, the perfect match, rules of engagement, desire & decorum, the royal romance, and the elementalists. we don’t have to play the “main” characters or follow the original storylines tho.

TITANIC/1900s: legit just... any and all dynamics lmao the list is infinite there’s so much potential. if you’re familiar with the game i’m looking for something taken from storyscape like matteo x adele dynamic (long-story short, matteo is a valet for a wealthy man and adele is someone who is being blackmailed by said wealthy man) or charlie x adele (charlie is a steward who befriends adele, helps her navigate her situation, and the two become very close - esp interested in a dynamic post-titanic too where he's trying very hard not to hold things against her but is struggling tremendously with guilt, ptsd, and his idealism) or a dynamic based on zetta x adele (zetta is famous and adele's employer, and adele is being blackmailed into ruining her engagement - but it'd have to be an mxf one because that's the only kind of romantic pairings i write).

THE HUNGER GAMES: capitol citizen x capitol citizen, mentor x mentor, victor x dead tribute’s sibling/dead tribute’s best friend, literally any other combO!! smth with spies would be great too like spy rebel working a the capitol x capitol staff.

VIDEO GAMES: plots based on until dawn!!!!!!!!! which is one of my favs tbh (there’s SO MUCH POTENTIAl but i’m particularly weak for “we had a ‘opposites attract, will they don’t they’ thing going on and smth was about to happen between us at the cabin but then my sibling/best friend vanished and everything went to shit and we haven’t spoken in a year even though we miss each other dearly”.

HARRY POTTER:

workaholic diplomats with a fuckton of baggage and personal struggles who are really good at their jobs and always butting heads… falling in love (bonus: maybe one of them is a squib)

pureblood order member is essentially kidnapped by their own elitist family and has their memory tampered with, meaning they now believe they’ve always just been a spy for the death eaters. they’re engaged and their significant other starts to notice little things that feel odd and unusual.

i muggleborn who started lying about her blood status and is passing as elitist pureblood who ends up getting engaged to a pureblood.

before the first wizarding war, two purebloods get married. it wasn’t an arranged marriage and for all their differences they brought out the best in each other. their families were iffy about each other but they made it work. she remained mostly a housewife, enjoying the work and taking care of the children. things were good until the war rolled around and slowly, gradually. it became clear that his family (and he himself) were prejudiced against muggles and muggleborn. in the end they end up on opposite sides of the war, and it gets ugly.

arranged marriage between two people. he’s a widower and a grump, no one really finds him good company and on top of that his wife died in questionable circumstances (everyone thinks he did it, but it was actually his parents). his parents picked her because she seems easy to manipulate and air-headed. they never thought they would end up gradually growing very fond of each other to the point of love - they have the same humor, he helps her try not to please everyone and she helps him allowing himself to be himself - and that he’d start standing up to his family.

ANGELS / DEMONS / NOT FANDOM SPECIFIC: angel x fallen angel (please. think of all the pain and angst) or demon x redeemed demon or smth of the sort (the betrayal!!!)

X-MEN: literally too many possible combos to list and i want them all!!! the angstier/messier the better.

THE MUMMY: doesn’t have to be based on the movie, i’m going for the ~vibes~ here. we can do: explorer/archaeologist x non-explorer, explorer/archaeologist x journalist, explorer/archaeologist x doctor, explorer/archaeologist x explorer/archaeologist…. they can be any age too! even exs with children, the options are endless.

PACIFIC RIM: trainee x trainee, pilot x scientist, pilot x pilot, doctor x pilot

OUTLANDER/TIME-TRAVELLING IN GENERAL: could be intentional, accidental, to the future or the past, etc so many options!! we can mix time-travelling with other fandoms too!!

TOMB RAIDER: feel free to make suggestions but here are some ideas: (a) and (b) have a long history (platonic, romantic, siblings, idc). they’re both explorers who for the most part have been on the same side. two peas in a pod. two sides of the same coin. etc etc. while trying to put together a mystery, and trying to beat the “bad guys” to it, they realise the object they are looking for can change the past or bring the dead back to life…. this is where (b) turns against (a), who, unlike them, wants to take the object and keep it safe inside a vault.

STAR WARS: literally too many options to list but i’ll try: “jyn” x “cassian”, spy x traitor, pilot x spy doctor, former stormtrooper x spy, former stormtrooper x regular person, spy x regular person, diplomat x pilot, diplomat x former stormtrooper, idk there’s so many possible dynamics i couldn’t list them all legit anything in this universe im begging lmao!

STRANGER THINGS: so many possibilities?? could be set at any point in time too… and/or make our characters older and have them revisit things that happened to them in the past.

MARVEL/MCU: superhero x human , superhero x superhero, hero x law enforcement, a verse where heroes are “banned” (think incredibles 2)… all of these could go in so many ways?? the sky’s the limit. reminder that i don’t write canons but i don’t mind writing against them!!

ANASTASIA: lost princess/prince x kitchen boy/girl turned con-person who is at first using them for money but ends up falling in love with them and oops turns out they are the real deal.

THE LITTLE MERMAID: mermaid x prince, mermaid x human, mermaid x pirate, “ursula” x “eric”

ALADDIN: “i pretended to be a rich prince/princess to impress the their/heiress to the throne bc i’m poor as hell and i just want to stop being poor lmao … but oh boy i’ve fallen in love…….”

FROZEN: “hans” x “anna” or “hans” x “elsa” (i just think “hans” is a great character and there’s a lot we could do with him tbh) oc guard or commoner x “elsa” “anna” and “kristoff” but their relationship isn’t working out the dynamic between “anna” and “elsa” bc i’m a sucker for sibling dynamics we could also explore the relationship of anna and elsa’s parents!!!

i have grown to the most underline truth that i see familiarity in men so heavily. i haven't really met anyone new since chris and it's partially my fault. i often have went back and forth with men im already familiar with in some sorts and it's fucking weird. kevin, why the actual fuck is there a reason for me to miss him? it's actually something that most people need to actually ask themselves. why do we go back to familiarity, why do we entertain our time with men who we know don't have strong if connection with? maybe that one was more directed towards me, kevin and me were cool, i would call our relationship interesting to say. we had a good number of things in common but we also had hell of difference. i always seem to forget that he's one of those white men. those white men that say "i went to school with a ton of black people". now this white person is different than the one that "i grew up with black people" or even the one that likes your dreads instead of saying twist. "i went to school with tons of black people" are the ones that were forced to be familiar with black people. they didn't choose too, because if they did, they'd have more black friends. but 9/10, most of their friends, are white.🤔 in a large amount of black student school. those are the ones that are curious about certain aspects of black people because of their hair or how they tan. and that's exactly what kevin was, i was only felt that way when i was around his friends. which was literally 9/10 times. when we were alone, rarely did i felt that way unless the topic of race came abrupt which happened a lot. mostly due to friends. but he'd pitch in. and he was sagittarius so he was quite blunt. we also didn't have too much in common, nor typically my type. he didn't dress like he skated, nor talked nor acted like it. but. he did drugs. which is somewhat cool until i met the next 3 guys who also did drugs and connected with a lot more. basically to show was, kevin was a good starter, maybe you want a bf so here's a little taste. and i got a little taste. and i guess it threw me completely off. he was an experience and i learned a lot from partaking with him. he guided warning signs and first dates and steer my way into my type i guess. so i'm fully aware me "missing him" is just to avoid this underlying feeling that's lurking mostly due to period and retrogrades and also to do with feeling of having made comfort. which comes to the gingerbread man. i specifically call ginger the ginger, because saying his name is only weird bc it's my last name. and a boy i knew since 5. basically my relationship with the ginger is the same with my relationship with dylan. we mostly just hang out and fuck, when were together it kinda looks like we are dating, in a sense. but for the most part, i wouldn't even call us friends but maybe so. anyway, everyone hates the ginger. everyone i've met hates the ginger for no reason other than, he's a dick. or he's a douche. and i'm over. completely ignoring the warning signs that are blinking st my face. because i'm in no danger. literally as much as i like hanging out with and probably continue maybe, and like the sex. i couldn't see myself dating him, halfly because the amount of water in his sign is too much for me and also, the whole play hard to get or effort is only lying on me trick is tiring and quickly bores me. i couldn't remember our conversations last time because they were boring and non rememberable. and that to myself is a warning sign. but only if when it comes to wanting more and establishing friendship and the care factor. now i see him as purely sex and a guy that is sorta interesting that'll fill my time up. so when it comes to that, i could hardly care less if people hate him, because his likability has nothing to do with me, in the slightest. now what's intriguing is my final view point on relationships. i don't want one. at all. until i feel something and maybe it'll take some time and maybe it won't. when i first met chris, i did not like him, at all. thought he was awkward and odd tbh. the second time, i liked him. he was funny and we had a good amount in common and he warmed up to me very quickly and i actually enjoyed his presence and wanted his friends to like me. because i actually really liked him. i haven't felt that way with anyone since. and it made me question what i should be spending my time with. hence the whole ordeal that i won't settle down per day unless it's someone i actually purely like. because what i'm doing is perfectly fine with me.
