#nutracker au

[nadsdraws]

I drew this like 3 years ago but wanted to wait until I finish writing the fic to go with it. But since the fic is not going anywhere and it's winter break now, I figured it's time.

The fic is about Aziraphale & Crowley, childhood friends, who quarrel over whether they should go to school's prom as a couple or not. That very night they have the same dream, sort of a Nutcracker retelling. In the process Aziraphale learns to be braver and Crowley learns that giving ultimatums doesn't really work. In the end they don't go to prom at all but celebrate somewhere else just the two of them.

A toysoldier au has been polluting my brain for weeks so i finally drew it (and then the nutracker bibes got to me so bonus engie being strangled by a raccoon)

#tf2 #team fortress 2 #tf2 engineer #tf2 soldier #helmet party #rocket science #crowtent #nutcracker au #but instead of being the girl engie is the toymaker uncle who never delived the toy/hj #it could work in universe too #all of the mercs are on a mission #except for engie #who finds himself bored (and maybe a bit lonely) as he is still waiting for mann co supplies #so he decides to make toys of his friends #and one weird dream sequence later he finds himself on an adventure with the toy soldier

Kinda going crazy rn. A crappy nutracker-themed commercial popped on yesterday while I was watching TV with the fam, and my brain literally exploded into a Nutcracker bkdk AU. Get ready for a holiday classic everyone! ;D Featuring pre-romance and childhood sweetheart bkdk, and adventure, ofc!

#I've listened to the whole ballet like three times since then #and I looked up the official synopsis online #also thinking about rewatching the barbie nutcracker movie cause I seem to remember it really stayed true to the music #sammy says #writing plans #bkdk

tomgreg the nutracker au... except it's honestly not even an au? greg is tom's prince turned nutcracker whom no one else is interested in when he arrives. and logan is the evil mouse king. need i say more

#tomgreg #i bet tom got taken to see the ballet as a kid and he wanted to be clara sooo bad #and then he kinda repressed all that and later confesses it to greg having never told anyone about it before #and greg's like 'that's crazy. i had a crush on the mouse king from the barbie version' #mine #au

[disast3rtransp0rt]

anyone want a sweet treat?

How about a story featuring Nutcracker Prince Anakin, shy Victorian-era Obi-Wan, a nine-headed Mouse King, and lots of silly fluff and adventure for everyone?

“Visions of Sugarplums” now on AO3!

A Nutcracker Ballet themed ObiKin fanfiction vaguely based on the George Balanchine choreography.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I apologize for my lack of communication or posting, has been complicated on my end and as you can tell this one is the one that took me QUITE some time to draw and finish (◕︵◕)

ANYWAYS I finished it just in time and here it is. Was wanting to do a nutcracker theme or AU for this so that’s what I did, you guys just have fun with it go nuts 🤣 I hope this gist was enjoyable (I can’t promise if I can finish more drawings I have but I’ll try).

@rueitae

I've only seen one shallura nutracker AU fanfic on archive of our own, and it's only three chapters.

We as shallura deserve to read a Nutcracker AU fanfic it would be so fucking cute I swear. It'd be a blessing.

The nutcracker has always been my favorite ballet and Christmas movie when I was little, so nutcracker AUs are like not so guilty pleasure.

Also shout out to Barbie and the Nutcracker because that movie was fucking lit.

Once upon a December 👀

(Sorry I know this is a bit late)

Hi star:) Never too late! I've just drafted a response to Tawny who asked for the same fic just before you, you can read it here.

I'll drop another snippet though and a sneak peak of an art wip that I started (also ages ago) to accompany the fic 😅

"Oh, Crowley!" Aziraphale presses his hands to the glass and Crowley does the same—on the other side. It's already so new, so different than what he's been used to. He can feel the warmth traveling from Aziraphale's side, see him more clearly now—his blond eyelashes, crystal blue eyes, the sweet curve of his body. And if only Aziraphale goes with him, they could have each other like this, in this new weird world. They could be together.

"Angel, run away with me." He breathes onto the glass surface leaving a patch of mist.

But Aziraphale's face immediately contorts with fear, he takes half a step back. His hand still pressed into the glass curls into a fist, his lips wobble.

In which it gets sappy

Tagged by the amazing @lethesomething!!

1. How did you come up with your username and what does it mean?

So uh. BS is actually short for bittersweet, but now it doubles as my in-joke for BS in whateverCourse -- hence the in. So BS in oranges.

Then it’s bittersweetoranges because i read this fic called bittersweet and it was damn good to me at the time. Also my favorite fruit is orange.

...I’m bot good at giving names nor titles. Haha.

2. Which fanfic of yours has the most feedback? (bookmarks/subscriptions/hits/kudos).

Hm. Overall, that would be my KuroYachi one-shot The Lights in the Sky are Stars. It was sort of my love letter to the KuroYachi ship, and so I’m not entirely sure if I’ll be able to add on to it.

For subscriptions that would be my still unfinished brofest piece, The Thief, the Witch, and the Fae. This one is my bid at making an interesting take on certain characters and dynamics in a dark fantasy setting. Futakuchi is the lead if only because @haruhi02 accidentally gave me his name when I asked for random characters.

3. What is your AO3 profile icon, and why did you choose it?

A freezing link from Breath of the Wild. Well, why not? Haha. I love Link, I love Breath of the Wild, and when I resurfaced back on tumblr botw recently came out and also the free icons.

(the rest is under a cut because it’s long and sappy)

4. Do you have any regular/favourite commenters?

Well. I won’t name favorites. Frequent commenters tho... they’d be my friends from chat, so shoutout to @lethesomething and @haruhi02 because you guys are great.

To be fair, I don’t think I post frequently enough for people to keep their eyes peeled for me.

5. Is there a fanfic that you keep going back to read again and again?

Boy, do I. Basically anything in my bookmarks are the things I regularly return to read. Quite notable, however is anything by bigspoonnoya. God. I love her work. From the HQ to the BNHA to the YOI.

6. How many stories are you subscribed to? How many do you have bookmarked?

I bookmark more than I subscribed. Buuuuuuuuut I’m subscribed to a grand total of 4 works, and I’ve bookmarked 62 fics.

7. Which AU do you find yourself writing the most?

Fantasy. Hands down. There’s three-ish urban ones, then there’s two full-on fantasy pieces. The rest are slice-of-life.

There’s just something about fantasy that makes me really happy. It might be the freedom to make, or that I like using fantasy as a substitute for when I want to comment on current events. But usually I like writing things that are fantastical.

Someday I want to make write a slice-of-life that makes the mundane fantastical, and then vice versa. If only because it’s the little things that steal my heart and imagination every single time.

8. How many people are subscribed and bookmarked to you in total? (you can view this on the stats page)

Four wonderful people are subscribed to me, while 12 are subscribed to my stories. For bookmarks, I have a total of 24. ^^

9. Is there something you’d like to write about but are afraid of people judging you for it? (Feeling brave? If so, share it!)

Many of my topic matter don’t really make much, if any, waves -- at least that’s what I think. I’m only afraid I can’t do justice to my dark/fantasy elements, because that would be a real shame.

10. Is there anything you would like to be better at? Writing certain scenes or genres, replying to comments, updating better, etc.

First it’s definitely finishing what I start. My multichaps aren’t incredibly long, but I worry a lot about continuation and future chapters that it spoils writing the present one, so I hope to work on that.

Next is my exposition and narration. I can only say “Name smiles.” so much before I think I write in a horribly stale matter.

... Does writing romance or any sort of sexual or romantic contact count? Cause, boy do I need practice.

11. Do you write rarepairs or popular ships more often?

Is YamaYachi popular? KuroYachi? I’m pretty sure they’re an okay and accepted ship. But in any case the rarest pair I’ve written is KuroYachi, and then KamaFuta. Because those pairs need more content, and I’m pretty willing to fill them.

12. How many stories have you posted on AO3 to this day (finished and unfinished)?

I have 9 works in total. Five of which are completed oneshot, and the other four are unfinished multichaps. See the trend yet?

One of the finished oneshots is the longshot Nowhere in the Sea. It’s the first fic I finished in my whole 17 (at the time) years of living.

Of my unfinished things, one of them is an anthology (that I should probably close since I’m not planning on updating anytime soon) and then the three fantasy pieces that has a lot Worldbuilding™.

13. How many stories do you have saved in/with your writing program?

H A H A.

Hm. So, I switch between Google Docs, Sublime Text 3, and OneNote. But there’s a whooping 17 unwritten stories in various states of disrepair.

I’m most excited for the YamaYachi one, and also the sprawling ensemble cast one. :D

14. Do you write down story ideas, or just keep them in your head?

I mostly keep them in my head. So they flit in and out of my memory like deadlines. On the rare occasion that I’m possessed by the idea, I’l have written the idea down and then some on anything I find convenient at the time (laptop, phone, or paper.)

15. Have you ever co-authored a story?

Yes. @haruhi02 was my partner for the hq fantasy fest thing. She was with me when I finished my first ever fic Nowhere in the Sea.

16. How did you discover AO3?

I was friends with this author back in FF.Net, and she had an AO3 account. Then, I branched off her fics to read the FE:A fics.

17. Do you consider yourself to be a popular or famous author in your fandom(s) on AO3?

LOL. Of course not. I can say, with confidence, that I am probably obscure.

18. Do you have a nickname or fandom name for your readers?

Hm...

19. Was there an author who inspired or encouraged you to write?

Fun fact, the first fan fic I wrote was an unfinished novelization of the Swan Princess (Nest Family Entertainment), and then an illustrated re-telling of Barbie’s Princess and the Nutracker. I started seriously pursuing writing around... the grade 5, when my bully of an English teacher said I had a talent for writing. If I had any it remains to be seen. But it was my friends back on FFnet. The likes of Mafi, and Tune, and Loke. They were there for me during my baby days writing for a fandom. We weren’t in the same fandom, but they inspired me so much.

Also I really like Philip Pullman and J.K. Rowling and thought it would be awesome to publish and write books.

Today though, it’s my friends in the chat who continue to inspire me everyday.

20. What writing advice would you give to a beginning author?

I don’t think I’m qualified. But if I should, it’d be to stay strong and welcome to addictive cycle of happiness and misery. Because there’s nothing like writing that one perfect scene -- it’s worth all the stress and the struggle.

Also. Writing is like wine, it get’s better with age, but it doesn’t mean that you like wine.

21. Do you plot out your stories, or do you just figure it out as you go?

I plot a lot. Like a lot. But I throw out a lot through the window when push comes to shove. Sometimes I’ll outwrite what I’ve planned or plan something new and then I’ll get flung into a crisis. Haha. Fun.

22. Have you ever gotten a bad comment on a story? If so, what did you do?

The worst comment I’ve had is spam on Nowhere in the Sea. I just wish I had more comments. #NoShame.

23. Is there a certain type of scene that you have a hard time writing? (action, smut, etc..)

Smut. A bit of action, but action is easier than doing the sexy.

24. What story(s) are you working on now?

I’m focusing all my energy on Amor Fati, which is my gift for the fantasy exchange. I need to finish that because it’d be sad if I didn’t. And, most importantly, I want to make my giftee proud.

25. Do you plan your next project(s) before you finish your current ongoing story(s)?

The plan is to keep up with my plans. I have no shortage of plans. Hahaha. But I do plan on finishing up Amor Fati then finishing either Scales or The Thief, the Witch, and the Fae before moving on to other projects.

26. Do you have a daily writing goal set for yourself?

Nope. It would probably be better if I did, but acads just eats a lot of my time.

27. Do you think you’ve improved as a writer since you first started?

I think it’s arrogant to think that I did, but I guess I did. I was 13ish -- two years after fifth grade -- when I took writing more seriously... And looking back my writing style changed. ^^

28. What is your favorite story that you’ve written?

I love all my stories for different reasons. To be honest tho, it’s what I haven’t written and am yet to write. I love The Thief, the Witch, and the Fae for it’s dark and heavy atmosphere. Scales for its hesitance and its secrecy. Amor Fati for the melancholy and for its world. Nowhere in the Sea for being my first in a lot of things (but also it’s magic system and world gdi). Lights in the Sky are Stars for it’s sweet fluff. Class Pizza for its tomfoolery. So on and so forth.

As much as I have a hard time looking at my writing, I won’t deny that I love them for the things that they are and could be.

29. What is your least favorite story that you’ve written?

... Probably my anthology? It reminds me of bad memories.

30. Where do you see yourself (as a writer) in 5 years?

Here, still suffering but instead out of school (hopefully) and knee deep in some sort of job.

31. What is the easiest thing about writing?

The planning and the talking and the crying and the reading.

32. What is the hardest thing about writing?

The writing. Or maybe that point between the first scene and the third. Something like that.

33. Why do you write?

Why don’t I? Writing is me. I’ve did things for the sake of reference, I’ve devoted a lot of myself to writing and the idea of writing. I love it. It’s an amazing way to express.

I wouldn’t give it up for the world.

Sooo. For tagging. @spacegaykj and @astersandstuffs and @slothesaurus if you guys don’t mind ^^. Feel free to ignore if you want. Thank you for the time.

Also double tagging @haruhi02 because I can.

#Nutracker AU #fantomestein

[nadsdraws]

Once upon a December, please.

That's the Nutracker AU that I was supposed to post for last Christmas 😅 Childhood friends which is a trope I've been obsessing over recently, but make it a fairy-tale.

It starts with the boys quarrelling one night and sort of breaking up. Then, once they fall asleep, they find themselves trapped in their own respective snow globes. Aziraphale is happy with that arrangement, Crowley not so much. He leaves to deal with the new strange world, that he found himself in, on his own (not before asking Aziraphale to go with him of course, but you can imagine how that goes.)

The title comes from a dancing scene near the end of the fic (another thing I'm obsessing over) when both boys finally acknowledge the wrongs in their behaviours and get together again ❤️

Thank you for the ask ❤️

WIP ask game

Opening snippet under the cut!

"Aziraphale, how many times have we been through this?" Crowley pinches the bridge of his nose. He's irritated, hurt and tired of all the pretending. Of waiting for something that might never happen.

The snow globe Aziraphale gave him as a Christmas gift is a nice gesture, but it means nothing if it's not followed by actions. And it hadn't so far. Hells, it took Crowley a good couple of years to even confirm there's something more between the two of them, that this pounding of his heart when he's near Aziraphale is not a one-sided thing.

But it still hurts.

More than he's ever prepared for.

"And I told you! We can't be seen together, not on a winter ball! Good Lord, Crowley! What were you even thinking!"

Crowley braces himself for another rejection that he knows is going to tear through his quivering heart. "People already suspect something's between us!"

"Which is even worse!" Aziraphale yells back at him, already looking behind his shoulder. As if there was anyone around that could see them in the St. James Park, their secret meeting spot.

Crowley winces, but tries to keep it together for a little while longer. "Is it? I don't think anyone would be, uh, openly hostile..."

It was true, he could feel the world shifting around them, accepting what used to be unthinkable. He's pretty sure his close friend Anathema has already figured it out and she was nothing but supportive. It gave him hope for the future, for their future.

"Why is this so important to you?" Aziraphale quips and it gives Crowley pause.

Public displays of affection—is that all Crowley cares for? Is he that shallow? But it's not only about that. It's the question whether they will ever be able to be properly together, or will it always be sneaking around and pretending they barely like each other. Eyes surreptitiously meeting across the room full of people.

His eyes start prickling in the corners as the thoughts swirl in his head. He shuts them tight, thankful for his sunglasses for this shield of plexiglass that saves the last shred of his dignity.

"Why isn't it to you?" He chokes, his throat is too tight to say anything more.

"If that's what you think then I have nothing else to say to you."

Aziraphale gapes at him, speechless for the longest while. He can see the hurt in those crystal blue eyes, one that he hadn't intended to put there, but one he cannot chase away. Not this time.

"And the feeling is mutual!"

Crowley pushes his hands in his tiny pockets and storms away first.

He doesn't look back.

He knows that if he did it might break his heart.
