File under "My Piggy Lover, thoughts on"
我的萌宠恋人 is the original language title just in case someone is trying to find that. It's a 24-episode (with 12 minutes per episode, I believe) story.
I picked up an IQIYI membership and kind of scanned through this looking for Lin Fan (Marco)'s as the romance aspect didn't do much for me.
To recap it (as I've talked about it a bit on another post):
A young woman is forced to abandon her pet pig. She is cursed by a shop owner into turning into her pig 12 hours every day. Her pig form is adopted by her boss, and she gets to see another side of him.
Many shenanigans occur as she tries to get her pig-self back, befriends an intern, and tries to reconcile the man she sees when she's a pig and the man she interacts with at work. She also learns that unless she finds a way to break the curse in 3 months, she'll one night turn into a pig and never return to her human form.
The plot is a typical "don't abandon your pets" Aesop with a little magic thrown in. Obviously, she falls in love with her boss and he with her and typical romantic stuff happens. (Some things turn out to be All A Dream but the ending is positive.)
The plot is predictable (of course the main protagonist is going to remain human!) but apart from the sappy "scrappy protagonist with self-esteem issues has the male love interest falling in love with her, but there's some jealousy in the form of another man seeming to fall in love with her" plotline, I enjoyed the bits I caught. I'm going to try watching it in full if I don't gag at the sappy, cliched portions of the plot. The idea of the curse requiring something other than the cliched curse breaking method was something that made the romance plot more bearable - after all, if the message was "don't abandon your pets", then doing a True Love's Kiss won't make sense.
(There is another show with a similar premise, where the boss is the one that turns into the pig thanks to pig-aliens! The female love interest in that one is Zhu Linyu/Bubble Zhu, who was in Youth With You with Lin Fan.)
A bit of spoilery stuff about Lin Fan's role under cut, including the character's backstory in episode 19.
Lin Fan's character, Qi (per the subtitles)/Archie (how the name translates in google lens) shows up more towards the end than the beginning (for obvious reasons; the main focus is the romance). We see her in episode 1, episode 4, then randomly until episode 19 where we get Qi's backstory. (Qi is female per the English subtitles but I'm not sure that's specified in the original subtitles.)
Qi was/is a dog. Literally, a dog. She was hurt defending her master and then her master abandoned her. She was eventually given the ability to curse humans that have abandoned their pets (as well as the ability to turn into human; she's a dog by day and a human by night, the opposite of the man character's plight).
She's snarly and unfriendly until very late in the series, where she softens up a bit and helps the protagonist and the rest of the cast.

CW: sex, language, violence
Summary: Modern Mafia-coded AU starts in last semester of College
An alternative story of Family Ties. (alternative Tumblr link here)
This is NOT a Prelude to Family Ties, but it's set in the same world with the same background for the reader. Story begins while she's in college.
I recommend reading Family Ties before this, only because there's a lot of spoilers for that in this story right from the beginning. But the titles can also be enjoyed separately, so if you're not a fan of Doflamingo-centric stories, don't feel like you have to pass this one by =)
If you don't want to wait for updates here, check it out on Ao3
Tumblr media
Chapter 1: Linguistically
College life was a change in pace from what you were used to. It was calmer, quieter, far more peaceful, and honestly safer than your usual routine. Well, safer in that you weren’t fighting for money, or parkouring through the back alleys of Grandline City. And those activities were safer than life had been around your biological father.
But that was to be expected. When you were six years old your father – Captain Sakazuki Akainu – shot your mother dead at the Moim. The Moim is conference gathering of the top businesses in the land, almost all of which had underworld connections, and your father had attempted to raid it because of his dedication to the ideal of “Absolute Justice”. Someone had taken your mother hostage and he had handled the issue with cold efficiency.
You survived, thanks to a then teenage Marco and his twin brother Thatch. Thatch had rushed after your father as a distraction and Macro had scooped you up and disappeared into the crowd. After that, their father, Edward Newgate, had taken you in and raised you. You weren’t legally related to him, but he’s kept you sheltered, and protected as you’ve grown into your own.
Edward Newgate, and his dozen or so adopted boys, were at the center of the Newgate Family. A mostly local mafia family in Grandline Metro that had its hands in a dozen or so different things. You didn’t know all the details, but you weren’t completely ignorant of it. You might call him Pops like the boys do, but you’re not legitimately a part of the crew – though you likely could be if you wished it.
Coming to college was part of an agreement with the old man. He wanted you to be able to pursue whatever you were interested in, without worrying about it being a gain or loss for the Family. If you decided to join officially after you graduated, then he wouldn’t argue against it. If you decided to move out on your own, he’d make sure you were on your feet and things would go from there, and that didn’t mean you’d have to cut ties with Pops and the boys.
Family was family, no matter what shape it took. Unless you stepped away intentionally, or did something unforgivable, they’d all have your back, one way or another.
Admittedly, the hardest part of adjusting to college was being on your own so completely. You did things by yourself a lot, even as you were growing up, but you had been backed up by the boys in some way ever since Marco and Thatch had saved you. Sure, you could probably swing the Newgate name around at college, even at one outside Grandline City like this was, and find it offered you some protection. The plan was to try and exist without that, to try and sort out who you were as yourself, not as the tangential only “daughter” of Edward Newgate.
Part of that meant that when you noticed there were a dozen Charlotte children on campus with you, you did your best to ignore them. Since you weren’t ever officially introduced during any of the Newgate parties, none of the kids should recognize you, and you were okay with that. More than okay with it, if you were being honest.
Charlotte Lin-Lin, aka Big Mom, was on par with Pops in terms of power, though she was based in another city. She had 85 kids, and counting as far as you knew, despite her age, and that was impressive since it was 85 more kids than you ever expected to have. Granted, a good chunk of those 85 kids were born six or ten at a time, which was another feat of human creation that you never wanted to experience.
Lin-Lin liked to use her kids to forge marriage ties with friends and rivals alike. Considering the Charlotte Family was just as much an underground organization as an actual blood family, the process of forging bonds with business partners could be deadly. People who turned down invitations and “requests” would often find themselves with little worries in the afterlife.
Aside from the whole being in the afterlife part.
You walk into the library, looking for a quiet corner you can study in when you notice some of the girls from your English class, specifically, Charlotte Nutmeg and her friends. They’re pointing and whispering and giggling about someone sitting off in a study desk by themselves. They don’t look or sound like they’re planning on being mean, but there’s something about the way they’re talking that makes you take note. It’s almost like they’re fishing for Nutmeg’s Mrs. Degree.
(A/N - A “Mrs. Degree” or “Mr. Degree” is someone who goes to college with no intent to get their own degree, but rather to find someone who is going for a lucrative degree and starting a relationship with them.)
Pops made sure you were aware of as many of the mafia families as he could before he sent you off to college on your own. The agreement was to keep your head down, but you were who you were, and if you were going to get into trouble, he wanted you to be aware of how deep it could go. You had no intention of facing anyone from Big Mom’s family head on, but you knew that the kids were often betrothed based on their mother’s whims.
The few that married on their own, only got away with it because they managed to find useful partners that Big Mom would approve of. That process of finding someone on their own, however, couldn’t result in any waves, so the Charlotte kids had a strict code. No messing with someone already taken, and no getting involved in unnecessary drama. If things went sideways and Mama caught wind of things too soon, then it would all be for naught – they’d be betrothed before the next sunrise.
That made helping whatever poor sap they had in their sights relatively easy. So long as you could get him to play along fast enough.
You visibly perked up as you moved toward the young dark-haired man that the girls were giggling over and called out to him. He had a vibe similar to a high school friend of yours named Roronoa Zoro, so you pretended that’s who you were greeting.
“Hey, thanks for waiting,” you said as you approached. You were sitting down across from a very grumpy looking dark-haired young man who had some impressively dark circles under his eyes, and before he could say or do anything you continued a little more quietly. “Play along.”
You gave him your best disarming smile, leaving your books on the seat next to you so there wasn’t an accidental barrier between the two of you. The point was to convince Nutmeg and her gaggle of “profilers” that the two of you knew each other well. His eyes narrowed at you, and then he looked around without moving his head and closed his eyes, a flash of irritation crossing his face that even you barely caught despite sitting in front of him.
“You’re welcome.” He answers you evenly. He’s not speaking too loudly, but he’s at least got the sense to not look overtly irritated. You notice his hands are covered in tattoos, and his books are mostly medical subjects. If it wasn’t for the deep exhaustion sinking into him, you’re pretty sure you wouldn’t have been fast enough to help him before he would’ve just gotten up and walked away.
Lucky for him he’s tired.
You open your phone and type into an empty text message. “I got those tickets, so we should be good to go for this weekend.” You say happily, holding the phone up for him to read it. “I tried to get some good seats; I know how important a good perspective is.” You’re doing your best to look like a long-time comfortable-around-him girlfriend, and not some wacko stranger. Which is a little challenging since you feel a bit like a wacko stranger.
Thanks to Luffy and Ace being friendly with everyone and anyone, you have a decent amount of practice in being comfortable around random people. Luffy never met someone who wasn’t a friend, and Ace tended to buy appetizers and booze for people when he went out. The two had even made a few friends with their fists. You still weren’t sure how broken noses and split lips could lead to being besties with someone, but you’d seen it happen at least three times between the two of them.
Text: Charlotte Nutmeg has you in her sights, and her family is dangerously pushy about marriage. Unless you *want* to be someone’s Mrs. Degree, in which case I can leave and wish you well with your prize.
“Oh, those are good seats, good job.” He replies, and even manages to flash you a smile.
You suppress the urge to snap a picture of him, even though you’re quite sure that smile is rarer than a blue moon. You’re trying to help the guy, not piss him off.
“Aww, it’s always nice to have one’s efforts appreciated.” You beam, giving your own best smile. You catch them leaving out of the corner of your eye and set your books down on the table and let out a breath, sinking into the chair. “Gods, sorry about that. Er, I mean, not sorry for it, but sorry I had to bug you.”
“I appreciate it.” He says flatly. “What did you mean by dangerously pushy?”
“Ah, the Charlotte family is notorious for arranged marriages. Their matriarch is terrifying, and she’s strong-armed a lot of marriages for her own benefit. Some of her kids will set their sights on successful people of their choosing and try to avoid having mommy dearest set them up.” You explain, opting to omit the whole Mafia Family detail, since you have no idea how this guy would react to it. The underworld was extensive, but the number of people who knew about it outside of the marines was small.
“… I’m hardly successful. I’m still in college.”
“Yuh-huh. Wow me some more with your humility there, Pre-Med.” You teased, nodding your chin toward his stack of books. You extend your hand, “(F/N)(L/N), linguistics major, Grandline City, pleasure to make your acquaintance, Pre-Med.”
He accepts your hand and shakes it once. “Trafalgar Law,” he says. “I’m not pre-med, I’m a graduate student. I was just re-reading my old notes.” He said, tilting the book up to show you all the notes and highlights that were in the book despite there being no such supplies around him.
“With that level of dedication, I feel like I should just start calling you Doc now.” You admit with a smile.
“… I’d rather you wait until I earn it,” he answered shortly, irritation finally showing up on his features. “Not that I expect to see you after today.”
“Aw, c’mon, accidental friends are the best.” You say with a smile. “Besides, we can help each other out.”
“Are you being hounded by a Charlotte family son?” He raises an eyebrow, like he already knows the answer.
You snort a laugh. “Maybe if they knew who my dad was, but no. No, I mean I’m majoring in Linguistics and you’re studying your pre-med notes. I can quiz you on terminology. You get some practice, and I get to geek out over root words and if I’m really lucky some syntax.” You lean against the desk and wiggle your eyebrows in a mix of mock, and honest, excitement. “Besides, I bet you could use a everyone-assumes-I’m-the-girlfriend-friend.”
“What makes you say that?” He doesn’t even look at you as he asks, picking up his drink.
You give him a flat look. “The continued humility’s cute, I’ll give you that, but you’re hot.” He chokes on his coffee, just barely managing to keep the sputtering inside the cup. “I imagine you get asked out at least once a week. More than that at the start of a new semester, until word gets around with the new freshmen that you’re just. Not. Interested.” You punctuate the last few words, feigning an expression of appropriate long-suffering.
Law sets his cup down and pinches the bridge of his nose. You can see his ears going pink, but you think better of teasing him for that, you’ll rib this guy into oblivion if you push much more. “That’s quite the accurate assumption.” He admits with a sigh. “Alright, (L/N)-ya, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.”
“I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.” You say with a grin.
He grunts, though there’s a sort of positive sound to it, and mutters mostly to himself.
“She goes around saving people random headaches, peers into their pasts, compliments them, and watches really old movies,” Law looks up from his notes. “I’ll give you credit on being multi-faceted, at least.”
“Says the guy who knows it was from a ‘really old movie’. Full disclosure, I don’t actually like that movie, Pops loves that it, and I’ve probably seen it a dozen times against my will.” You admit.
“Pops?”
“Mm, now there’s a story for another time, Dah-erm-Law.” You say with a smile. “A girl needs a slight air of mystery or things are no fun.” You motion for the book he has open. “I was serious earlier, let me quiz you. Oh! Or you could teach it to me, they say a good way to study is to teach the material to someone. Makes it stick.”
“Let’s start with you quizzing me,” he replies, handing over the book.

I’m gonna use a random number generator and draw whoever I get. These aren’t even all my OCs, but they are all the ones I:
Can draw from memory
Are named* (Beloved Pokemon™️ are an exception)
And have even a modicum of characterization fleshed out
So while that may exclude some fan characters, random designs, and alas, even more Beloved Pokemon™️, this is an accurate reflection of ~25 years of my ADHD maladaptive daydreaming creating stories.

Lorenzo 'Jake' Lowe (bgeast.com) / Jesse Zane (muscleboywrestling.com) / Jake Lowe (jonnyfirestorm.com)
All stories need someone to root for and a Lorenzo Lowe / Jesse Zane match is like watching an underdog story.
Tumblr media
Lorenzo 'Jake' Lowe (bgeast.com) / Jesse Zane (muscleboywrestling.com)
Equal parts jobber and heel, Jake is a guy of many talents.  Billed as 5'5", he's not an imposing wrestler, but he sure makes the most of all of what he's got and manages to flatten guys with 50 pounds over him.  Now I'd be lying if I didn't get a sense of satisfaction in seeing Jake pummel some of those big dopy heels, but I admit my favorite role for Jake, is to see him job; there is just something about seeing him overwhelmed and his match against Damien Rush was a stand out match.  
So where was I?  Underdog story, submitting jobber, whatever you're in the mood for, Lorenzo/Jesse/Jake is your guy.

Marco Lin Fan in My Piggy Lover and Yu Yuan Ling
The untranslated titles are 我的萌宠恋人 and 御渊令; Yu Yuan Ling doesn't have an English title (yet).
She showed up recently in the romantic comedy "My Piggy Lover" (available on the Chinese IQIYI website but not on the English-language one EDIT: nvm, it is on the english website, I just missed it) as a pet shop owner who might have some mystic powers. (EDIT: According to a different trailer I found on Youtube, the pet shop owner definitely has some mystic powers! Enough to curse the female lead.) The plot is that the female lead was forced by her boyfriend to abandon her pet pig, did so at the pet shop, was cursed (by the owner?) to turn into her pig. Oh yeah, and her boyfriend was cheating on her. The rest of it is a typical romcom setup with a little bit of magic. Lin Fan's character is in episode 1, but may show up later in the plot. Unfortunately only episodes 1-2 are free, you get previews of 3-6, and the rest of the series is locked behind a pay gate. Pet shop owner's gender is a tad unclear.
She's also in the period drama "Yu Yuan Ling", which, according to various rough translations is from a webnovel, might feature time travel, definitely features romance. Based on her weibo caption, she may be playing some sort of assassin? Still have no idea as to the gender of her character.
Images for both under cut.
Tumblr media
Main character (female lead) running away from Lin Fan's character, her pig, and the pet shop. That little bit of text at the top is a comment from a viewer about how handsome Lin Fan is.
Tumblr media
A better shot of Lin Fan's character; I peeked at the text through Google Lens and most of the text has to do with the character (I think) or the lighting.
Tumblr media
This is a slightly later clip of Lin Fan's character in their pet shop. Some of the comments are bout hands, one is another "Lin Fan is Handsome" comment, and one says "Lin Fan! So handsome! So naughty!" (due to the way she's talking, I think).
