Arcane Fanfic Scenarios

Fic scenarios that will probs never get written but are fun to imagine:

Bobby Pins and Angel Wings: Five times Jinx and Ekko nearly kissed - and the one time they did. Bittersweet snippets of childhood games and cozy rooftop chats, told in flashback form. All interwoven with Jinx and Ekko going all-out during a shoot-out in the present day.

Category: Angst, Fluff, Violence.

Ships: Jinx x Ekko

Some Like it Hot: Crack oneshot. Silco makes a guest appearance on Hot Ones and dishes out the complexities of revolution and the struggles of running the drug trade and being a single father - all while absolutely devouring the ghost peppers.

Y'all. This is Zaun. You expect them not to have spicy food?

Ends with Sean Evans going utterly non-verbal after trying one of Zaun's own homebrewed concoctions... while Silco chugs a glass of yogurt and smiles slyly for the cameras.

And then gets the hiccups<3

Category: Crack, Humor, Politics.

Ships: Zaun x Spicy cuisine.

Arcane Meets Isekai: Character-x-Reader themed Choose Your Own Adventure where reader is flung into the chaotic and magical world of Runeterra, and ends up simultaneously stealing the hearts of a shyly brilliant scientist (Viktor) and a ruthless Undercity revolutionary (Silco). Shenanigans ensue. Multiple endings and wild scenarios. Heimerdinger's poro was hurt in the making of this story - and will be hurt again.

Category: Angst, Fluff, Crack, Smut.

Ships: Primarily Viktor x Reader and Silco x Reader. But there can be so much more.

Empires Rise and Fall: Silco and Mel and up brokering a marriage pact to keep their cities united. It's an unexpected match made in Heaven - with a dash of Hell. Also a warlord mother-in-law who refuses to keep her nose out of the marital chamber. And a step-daughter creeping like a golem in the rafters...

Drabbles of the angsty, fluffy, smutty and political variety. Plus a honeymoon in Noxus. Complete with near abductions and survived assassination attempts.

"Mawwiage. That bwessed awwangement. That dweam within a dweam..."

Category: Angst, Smut, Fluff.

Ships: Silco x Mel, Silco x Power, Mel x Politics.

Through a Glass Darkly: Extremely dark fic. Silco's life post-drowning. Details everything from his recovery, to his rise as a kingpin-on-the-make, to the development of Shimmer, to his alliance with Singed, and his plans for payback. All while he watches Vander from afar with his new family, and plots to destroy both.

Also features plenty of near run-ins with baby Powder - and a sense of fated inevitability.

The shark was always lying in wait.

Unbeknownst to him, so was fatherhood.

Category: Angst, Gore.

Ships: Silco x Vander

Snakes and Ladders: A retelling of Forward but Never Forget/XOXO from Mel's PoV. Plenty of MelJay cuteness, flashbacks of her life as a Noxian heiress, the grim legacy of Ambessa's lessons, her childhood games with Kino, and a darkly decadent slice of Mel × Silco, as her elusive arch-ally lures her deeper and deeper into the labyrinth of snakes and ladders that is Zaun...

Category: Angst, Smut, Fluff.

Ships: Mel x Jayce, Mel x Silco.

Redux: Multichapter monstrosity. A time travel AU where Jinx, twenty seven years old, is embroiled in an ongoing battle with Piltover - and with her sister Vi. Tired, disillusioned, and with only her ghosts for company, she reminisces bittersweetly about her girlhood days with Silco. Then she breaks into Ekko's workshop and steals his infamous watch, ready to tamper with it and go back all the way to the beginning, before the Day of Ash.

This time she'll make sure they all live: her parents, Vander, Vi, Silco, Ekko, Benzo, Mylo and Claggor.

Safe together.

Long story short: she miscalculates and ends up at the midway point before Vander drowns Silco in the Pilt. Now Jinx has to keep her wits and hide her secrets, as she struggles to survive in a much deadlier and more volatile Zaun. All while she ingratiates herself into their revolutionary circle, and attempts to heal the rift between its two leaders, before it can widen further.

Easier said than done when both men begin taking an interest in Jinx for their own mercenary agenda. And by the end, will slit each others' throats to see said agenda fulfilled.

Dammit.

Where is that Boy Savior when you need him?

Written as a darkly comical fic from Jinx's POV. Back-to-the-Future flavored adventures. Full of booms, oopsie-loopsies, and political commentary.

All our girl wants is to undo the jinx before it jinxes everyone. Instead, she ends up getting baby Powder quite literally 'unalived,' causing heaps of destruction, and accidentally becoming a mentor figure to young Vi. Meanwhile, as Silco's peer rather than his beloved daughter, she can't help but be confronted with glaring flaws in her pedestalized Papa's ideology. All while young Silco, convinced she's either a spy in their midst, or his very own Lady of the Lake sent to illuminate the rightness of Zaun's path, finds his extremist tendencies widening by a mile. Much like Vander's violent streak and his determination to nip Silco's plans in the bud...

A fix-it fic gone off the rails. Don't time travel, folks.

Oh, and there's a sweet Timebomb twist by the end<3

Category: Angst, Horror, Fluff, Comedy, Mood Whiplash Galore.

Ships: Ekko x Jinx, Silco x Vander, Silco x Revolution, Jinx x Chaos.

tinimmy for the ship part of that ask game plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I've been DYING to answer this thank you 😭♥️

when I started shipping it if I did

I've always found them funny and cute like "hahahaha dumb middle schoolers" when I started watching the show but also like, super normal (like actually normal) about them

But noooo, season 6-7 plus rewatching the old eps just had to slowly turn my brain into a MESS so now I just have to be all 🥺🥺🥺 even when they're onscreen for like, 2 seconds 😭

my thoughts

I love them and will not elaborate further or this post might as well turn into a 3 page essay

what makes me happy about them

Awkward dumbasses 😭 Walking teenage disasters are what they are!

I love them being sweet and silly and- and their stupid petty fights and- and how things might go wrong and imperfect one way or another but THAT'S their brand now and- and how they always reconnect in a sweet/bittersweet way because they obviously care about each other a lot and- and-

what makes me sad about them

The potential angst is so real with these two I SWEAR 😭 They're immature and all and every two episodes Jimmy Jr decides that it's a good day to become the dumbest teenage boy ever like darn it 😭

But they're learning and it's a long ass way to get anywhere near actual good communication with these two but they have all the time let them beeee~

things done in fanfic that annoys me

The fics that ship them or the fics that includes them so they can trash on Jimmy Jr?

For the former I'd say I'm not too fond of when they exchange too many fluffy dialogues so openly and smoothly, like I'd prefer them to be not that overly lovey-dovey with words?

For the latter one? EVERYTHINGGG

things I look for in fanfic

Always happy to read about the comedy, dumb shenanigans, awkward interactions, sweet sweet little moments, the lil angst, and kisses (heh) Also more of their flashbacks as kids pls 😭 And I can never get enough of fics with them during their highschool/young adult phase

Also everything you write ✨

who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other

For Tina I'd say Josh or Zeke, and for Jimmy Jr it'd be Zeke. Just some ships I have some sort of feelings for, I'm open to other options as well :D

my happily ever after for them

The least I wish for would be them to simply be important figures in each other's life in adulthood 😭 But really my ultimate happy idea would be them to get married and be dumbasses together all day everyday for forever (and they will NOT drop their petty fights)

who is the big spoon/little spoon

Jimmy Jr and Tina respectively :D But they can switch too ✨

what is their favorite non-sexual activity

Sharing their weird ass taste of music with each other. At some point Jimmy Jr's headphone broke but instead of buying a new one he gets earphones so Tina can listen to music with him too BECAUSE he has very important opinions he needs share with her

#well this got longer than i expected #i mean i don't know what i expected #thank youuuu #bobs burgers #bob's burgers #tinimmy #ask game

All of the Stars

Pairing: Sean McLoughlin x F!Reader

Summary: When you were in college as a transfer student, you met a young guy named Sean McLoughlin, who was 18 at the time, you both met while in the same home room, you both fell in-love but at the wrong time, as you had to head back to America to finish your final school year, will you cross paths again? Will the stars align to meet him again?

Prompt: “All of The Stars’ Cover by Kurt Hugo Schneider & Alex Blue

Warnings: A bit of a slow burn, romance and fluffy shit, angst, language, mentions of mental health (I think that’s it..)

Also I apologize in advance, I don’t really know how further education schools work in Ireland, so I’ll just be making stuff up! Jack has an amazing girlfriend, but for the sake of the story he is single! Anyways~ Enjoy!~

(Y/T/N) is your town name!

~Flashback...~

It was your first day being a transfer student in Ireland, you were doing a major project where different students go to different countries to study the ways European schools are like, and get a day-to-day life of a student...

You held your backpack against your shoulders and head to your first class, which was an art class where you started the first project of the school year, but you were a transfer student until Christmas, so you worked hard while you could...

After a few more classes, it was time to head to home room, once you got into the room, you were told by the teacher to come up front, “Listen up, I have an announcement! We have a new student who came all the way from America, she’s doing a project on...” He pauses to let you finish...

“Hi, I’m Y/n, the project I’m working on is a study where other students and I have traveled to different parts of Europe, to get an idea how the schools work and how a students day-to-day life is laid out...” You look back at the teacher, “Excellent Y/n, so everyone be polite to Ms. (Y/n), feel free to take a seat right next to Mr. McLoughlin, raise your hand sir...”

Sean does so, you thank the teacher then go sit down next to Sean, as you walk towards the desk, you noticed how he was absolutely adorable, you sat your stuff down and sat in the chair, then started some school work when you suddenly felt like someone was watching you...

You looked up to see a pair of bright blue eyes, looking right at you, causing you to giggle softly, “Hi Sean..”

“Hiya, how are ya?” Sean asks, you could tell he’s very high energy, and very playful, “Good, how about you?” You question him, “Great now that you’re here.” You laugh softly, “I can tell you’re a flirt, Sean...”

“Eh maybe a little bit, but I can’t help it when you’re here.” You lightly shove him, and you both talk and joke around until the bell rings, then went your separate ways onto your next classes...

Once the school day ends, you head out to the front of the school, when you heard a familiar Irish man yell your name, you turn around to see it was Sean running to catch up with you, “How was your first day?” He questioned...

“It was great, I got to meet some new people, how was your day?” You walked with him down the sidewalk, “Eh, kinda boring, but good, where ya headed?”

“Back to my house, I’m renting a place nearby the school, why?” You quirked your eyebrow, “Just curious, plus I wanted to see if you wanna go get something to eat?” You smiled, “Yeah, I’d like that very much...”

“Alright! Let’s go, I know a good spot to eat.” He grabs your hand and pulls you along, you giggling at his eagerness, once you got to the restaurant, you ordered your food and ate while talking about one another...

Almost an hour later, Sean paid for the food, and you both left and started walking towards your place, when you get to the front door, you turn around and thank him for walking you home, you were about to head in when you feel him kiss your cheek...

This made you blush furiously, you looked at him and smiled then did the same, “See you tomorrow.” He nods then waits till you’re inside then makes his way back home...

This went on for a while, until it was time for you to head back to America in December, you went to school for one final day then had to get into a cab right after to get to the airport, when you were headed to the cab, you were stopped by Sean, he looked confused as to why you were leaving, “Hey, where are you going?” You looked at him sadly, “I have to get back to America, I only had to be here for a few months...”

“Oh, well...can I..?” You tiled your head, then suddenly he laid his soft lips on top of yours, which shocked you for a split second, but kissed him back, cupping him softly on the face, he did the same but eventually had to stopped, knowing you had to leave, “I...I love you Y/n, will we see each other again?” You shrugged as you got in the cab, “Maybe, time will tell...” He nods, then caresses your cheek softly then lets you go, then watches as the cab drives off...

“One day we’ll see one another again...” He says to himself then walked home, feeling bummed out...

~Flashback end...~

Back to the present day, you were sitting in your house, watching the snow fall and drinking hot cocoa, thinking about the past, you remember it to every detail, and you still ask yourself if you’ll ever see him again...

You got a call from a friend of yours, who you’ve know for several years, “Yo bestie! Guess what’s coming up in a week?” You think but couldn’t give an answer, “What’s happening?”

“Dude, jacksepticeye, Sean Mcloughlin is coming to (Y/T/N)! I got us tickets so we can see the tour, plus I know you wanna see him again..” You widen your eyes, “Pfft, no I don’t, he probably doesn’t even remember me...” You knew he did, you just didn’t wanna admit it to your friend...

“Please Y/n, just admit you miss him and that you love him!” You shake your head even though your friend can’t see it, “Mmm, negative, anyways, I’ll be glad to go, talk to you later!” Your friend says her goodbye then hangs up, which after processing for a minute, you start freaking the fuck out!!

You started watching Sean’s channel when he first started it, and supported him from the very beginning, now that you see where he’s at now with almost 29 million subscribers, made you think about the past...

You then went into your bedroom, but you suddenly got to thinking if he would even remember the way you look, you both changed a lot over the years, but not in just looks, you’ve been through a bunch of struggles, finding out you have anxiety and depression as you got older, been through many relationships that never worked out, mainly because they were douches...

You got over them, and worked on your mental health and are better, but still have your struggles every so often, you sit down on your bed then think, ‘Maybe he does remember how you look, even though it’s been forever since the day you both met, you were in a trance when you forgot you turned on some music then heard a cover of one of your favorite songs...

Maybe this was a sign you were meant to see him, you laid down in bed and scrolled through social media until you passed out from exhaustion, which coincidentally, Sean appeared in your dreams...

~Fast forward to the week of the tour...~

You were standing in line with (Y/F/N), getting nervous by the minute, you wanted to pace but with everyone close to each other, you aren’t able to but you suddenly start to hyperventilate a little bit, causing you look look around nervously and whisper to your self over and over, “Shit, shit shit! I can’t do this, this is insane!” You friend grabs your shoulder and shakes you, “Snap out of it Y/n!”

You nod and rub your eyes, “I just...what if he doesn’t remember me, what if he doesn’t remember what I look like? I’m questioning so many things its insane...”

“We’re gonna be sitting front row, in front of the stage, there’s no way he can’t find you, now look, we’re about to head into the building, lets get some merch and go sit in our seats, you’ll be fine, just breathe..” Your friend explains, you both get to the merch table, buy your things and head to your seats then get comfortable...

About 45 minutes later when everyone is seated, then the lights go down and the intro of the tour begins, fans start screaming and the laughing ensues, when Sean comes out on stage and says hello to a few fans at the front, you saw a sparkle in his eyes, you knew he absolutely loved his fans, and what he does and how he was able to be in this position...

When he came closer to your side of the row, he looked right at you and paused for a split second, but moved on cause he had a show to put on for his fans, which was filled with laughter, tears and much more, you we’re having such a good time you barely noticed the show was ending, he was speaking on how he got here, starting by thanking his fans, where he started, where he’s at, how it doesn’t take much to get to where you want to be no matter where you are in life, and so on, when finally he said his farewell and bowed to the audience, everyone stood up and applauded as he blew kisses and left the stage...

Everyone left, you left the building stunned and in tears, you wiped them as you cover your face and knelt down in front of the building, “Holy shit, he looked straight at me, he recognized me right fucking away...” You friend knelt in front of you and rubbed your back, “See, I told you he would!” You jokingly shove their shoulder, then chuckle once you get yourself together and stood up...

“He saw me, but how could I catch him again, he could possibly be leaving to his next tour location...” Your friend shook her head, “They’re probably packing up equipment...stay here Y/n...” Your friend pauses then walks away for a few minutes, little did you know she was about to make the day so much better than it already it was...

Your friend returns with the tour manager, “You must be Y/n? I’m JP, the tour manager for Sean, you know him?” You nod and shook hands, “Yes, I went to school with him for a while, several years ago...” “So you’re the infamous Y/n, follow me.” You looked to (Y/F/N) and followed JP to behind the building, where you round the corner and see Sean standing by the bus and joking around with some of the other folk on tour with him, he just so happens to turn his head for a split second and paused...

You walked towards him slowly, and he jogged over and gave you the biggest hug you’ve ever felt, and hugged him back tightly, tears streaming down your face, PJ silently told everyone to get on the bus, to let you and Sean have a private moment, “Dammit Sean, I missed you so much..” You looked into his eyes...

He wiped your tears, then cupped your cheeks and kissed you passionately, which made you kiss him back the same way, you both pulled away, “You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do that...” He lays his forehead against yours, “I felt the same, I didn’t know if you would remember me or not, guess I was wrong.” “I could never forget a gorgeous face like yours, your mine babe...”

“How long are you gonna be on tour?” You want to be with him, but you want to wait until he’s off tour, “For a few more months, why?”

“I want to be with you for good, but I don’t know how we can be in a relationship while you’re on the move...” You lay your head on his chest, he rubs your back, “How about you come on tour with me? Your eyes widen, “Seriously, what about your manager and other people who are traveling with you?”

“I can ask, I’m sure they wouldn’t have an issues, give me just a sec, I’ll be back out...” He goes inside and is gone for a few minutes when your friend comes back out, “He wants you to go with him? You should do it, you both want each other, I can tell..”

“I will if I can, but then again I don’t want to leave you alone.” Your friend shakes her head, “You won’t we can call one another, tell me about Sean or how the tour went, I know you want him, go Y/n, this is your chance to be with him!” You nod, “You’re probably right, (Y/F/N), I’m leaving with my man...” You both giggle and chat for a bit...

Sean suddenly comes back out and picks you up excitedly, “You’re coming with me missy!” You giggle, “I’m going with you, but I’ll need to pack some stuff up..”

“We’ll stop by your place, alright? Your friend can come too if she’d like?” He looks to (Y/F/N), “Thank you for the offer, but I got a job to be at, Y/n don’t forget to call your boss, okay?” You nod then hugged, said your goodbyes, you got on the bus with the others and sat next to Sean, then detoured to your house and packed up for the next several months in a large wheeled suitcase, then went on tour with the love of your life, like you were meant to be...

now that I’ve gone through the entire tag (some pages twice) it’s time to settle down and sort through the one thousand, eight hundred (!!!!) works in my marked for later. not-so-quick note on my personal preferences, and what you can expect to be included or excluded from my rec list

so, in general my favorite fanfic tropes can be categorized as hurt/comfort and angst with a happy ending. as reflected from the source material, I read and may recommend works containing graphic, disturbing, or potentially triggering content, including writing related to sexual assault, grief/mourning, trauma, and suicide. I will summarize each work, but please note the tags and warnings on any fic listed here if that’s a concern for you.

on the flipside, I do not read works that end unhappily - all these end hopefully at the very least. no main characters will die who aren’t already dead in canon, wx will always be together or getting there (or, in the case of sad flashback-era fics, will eventually get there), and many of these works reflect themes of healing, recovery, and finding peace. I’ll make note of any exceptions, but there are pretty strong preferences for me, so there won’t be many. and I like sweet and fluffy things too, as well as humor and interpersonal drama and worldbuilding and action - there will be a mix of various types or works

this is an 18+ rec list! explicit works will be on here in any category. additionally, what else the author has written may or may not affect whether I rec something, but I’ll make a note if I know there’s an issue. I also can’t guarantee all authors will be vetted, but I can make a note for authors whose works I trust completely not to be weird or gross

fics recommended in this list are guaranteed NOT to have the following, and please let me know if I mistakenly included anything containing them:

pedophilia/csa, teacher/student relationship, sexual ageplay, or any couple with a canon age gap (even nhs with mxy, or lxc with jc)

incest, including wwx with jc, and jin ling with lzs (the canon incest may be mentioned, but I find that comes up rarely in works I read)

romanticized rape (incl. sex under duress or when unable to consent); everything under the umbrella of ‘noncon’, ‘dubcon’, fuck or die, sex pollen, sex curses, drunk sex scenes, warprize, nonconsensual (or even consensual) somnophilia, necrophilia, etc - unless treated as a traumatic experience - I have several SA recovery works bookmarked and in my MFL

*note on novel ‘canonical kinks’ - a couple of fics do obliquely reference rape fantasy, but they’re few and far between, and there are no actual scenes depicting it. I will mark them so readers will know

abusive wwx or lwj (or anyone not already abusive)

dark!wwx or lwj (🙄)

xy/xxc unless it’s treated as fucky

genderbends/cisswap

fics feminizing wwx - some gray area since he’s gnc in the novel and I really do like seeing that explored; there is one exception to this rule and it will be marked

RPF

A/B/O

cop AUs

CEO wwx or lwj (except for parody)

character x reader

h*rry p*tter

asexual or demisexual wwx and/or lwj: I don’t have an issue with any other characters being aro or ace but they just didn’t come up very often

plus more that I habitually avoid and assume everyone following me does too, but I’m drawing a blank rn. feel free to message me to add more

due to personal preference, there will be also be no, or very little of the following:

crossovers

meet-cutes, hook-ups, breakup fics (even if they get back together), friends with benefits, fake dating/relationship

self inserts

reincarnation

soulmate AUs

age regression (even if non-sexual)

camboy/stripper/sex worker/brothel/courtesan AUs (they’re usually awful but I do have one exception)

kinky stuff besides bdsm. not what I’m here for

*bdsm fic is not something I particularly seek out or enjoy, but since it’s kind of unavoidable so you can expect a fair amount of that

*like I really dislike reading orgasm delay/denial but it’s everywhere so *shrug*

*spanking and more specific kinks like petplay, watersports, inflation, tentacle shit, etc. will not show up since I don’t like them

any reference to the PM kiss unless it’s treated with the gravity is should be

time travel

youtube/socmed, high school, robots/androids, sports, office, assassin, spy, royalty, science fiction, idol, shapeshifting, reality tv, celebrity, mafia, actor, professor, military, or fairy tale AUs

significant canon divergence AUs

significant fix-its

junior-centric (and anything where they’re shipped with each other or anyone else)

fics over 3 chapters (with a handful of exceptions)

Hanahaki disease

mpreg: obviously trans men and and do get pregnant, but I’m wary of anything tagged mpreg since generally speaking, this type of fic is quite weird about trans men. also some mpreg is literally about cis men getting pregnant which like...???

threesomes...sorry, there are just no good ones that people write very much about

podfics/video format

fics that try to pretend like myu was a good mother lmao

I have the tag ‘oblivious wwx’ blacklisted so that might tell you something

if jc is there, people are probably bullying him, but I dislike fics written by jc haters as much as by uncritical jc fans

drawn-out miscommunication for the sake of romantic angst. super annoying

juniors shipping wx 🙄

I have ‘possessive lwj’ blacklisted but this is also something else that’s sort of everywhere; if it’s present it’s either recognized as a flaw and well-controlled, or isn’t very significant

also, the only couples I really read about or rec are

wx (number one, baby - most other couples are usually background sorry but nothing overshadows Them)

mianqing

yanqing (MAYBE)

songxiao

xuanli

nielan (background only)

xiyao (as a toxic or past relationship only)

cssr/wcz (background only)

ONE instance of wq/jc

one-sided nhs/wwx

yaoyang lmao

wq/wwx, sexually but not romantically. like platonic BM-era comfort sex

+ random one-offs like wlj/wq, jc/jzx, and others, perhaps (??)

if you’re still reading, thanks <3

Top 10 BL Narratives

BLs With The Best Stories

Until We Meet Again (Thailand) - will probably always top this list. It’s a perfectly executed story, fantastic well seeded plot twists, and the only BL I would love to see adapted by other countries or read professionally translated. Adapted from a y-novel.

Seven Days (Japan) - this is a pitch perfect elegant little YA romance that stays completely true to its yaoi roots but neatly avoids all the flaws of the genre. The story is deceptively simple but allows for angst and miscommunication to develop with VERY good reason, and is almost worth studying because of that. As a romance story it is elegant. Adapted from a yaoi manga.

Color Rush (Korea) - you all know how much I love this show, I lost my mind over the allegory and the perfection of the story to the point of forgiving it certain other sins in stiffness and low heat. The world-building is too simple for it to play well to a SF/F genre only audience but it’s absolutely groundbreaking for BL. Adapted from a manhwa. (Color Rush 2 continues the story and while I don’t like it as a BL, and the plot is somewhat typical, it’s still better than most.)

Old Fashion Cupcake (Japan) - this is a deceptively simple office romance that actually has a lot to say about life, love, maturity, and pancakes. It’s charming but also deeply moving and loving in its exploration of what it means to give up, and how connection can bring with it second chances. It’s also beautifully filmed and acted. Adapted from a manga.

1000 Stars (Thailand) - all BL is romantic, but not all BL is a modern romance in the literary sense of the term, but 1k* is just that, an absolutely glorious slow burn romance that nods at BL but isn’t behooven to it. It’s just a really well executed linear story. Adapted from a novel.

Cherry Magic (Japan) - a great fluffy concept that is given gravity by some stellar performances. It’s a self worth narrative arc but played with believable charm. Adapted from a manga.

He's Coming to Me (Thailand) - such a clever take on both paranormal romance and the cohabitation trope, what I love about this is how closely the story and the supernatural conceits are married to each other. Basically boy and ghost move in together, fall in love while they investigate murder. Adapted from a novel.

HIStory 3: Trapped (Taiwan) - Taiwan often struggles with story because their BLs aren’t long enough to really get stuck in (and they don’t adapt). Trapped is different. It has a baby murder investigation that promotes conflict between the leads, so the romantic tension is between plot and character, it’s so smart. The main couple has an amorphous ending, tho. Original screenplay (I think).

Nobleman Ryu’s Wedding (Korea) - this has a 12th Night meet Cinderfella feel to it, plus some great story tricks like a plot that requires a historical setting (I love it when narrative elements are codependent). Original screenplay (I think).

Triage (Thailand) - a “correct the past” Groundhog Day story, that has narrative baggage I normally do not like but is so clever about time loops, I have to forgive it my hang-ups. About a doctor who must save a boy to fix reality, but not in the usual way.

(List is in ranked order of my personal preference.)

Honorable Mention

I have to mention Light On Me. The way it handled love triangles alone is narrative genius but over all it’s also had a particularly good script. The story, however, is pretty standard it was just very very well done. Same with Semantic Error.

I waffled about including Utsukushii Kare on this list too. But it’s too complicated in the end for me to pull jsut it’s narrative out as its primary plaudit. So in the end I have to just say, read this and decide for yourself.

Neither of these are strictly BL, but...

3 Will Be Free (Thailand) - such clever storytelling that builds tension with both plot and the balance of suspense and flashbacks and the developing love between both sets of characters (both the 3 being chased and the 2 doing the chasing). Original screenplay (I think).

Great Men Academy (Thailand) - body-swap means this isn’t technically BL but like 3 Will Be Free I have to talk about it because it just such a great story. For body-swap it’s particularly clever. Original screenplay (I think).

A quick word on the nature of story & narrative.

Story Encompasses

Story is not the same thing as plot, lots of people make this mistake. Plot is one element of story. Here’s a simple way of looking at narrative:

Who is in it - the characters, their interactions & development how does that drive the story

What happens - plot, how the characters move through space & time, what actions they take, who they encounter

When does it occur - and in film this tends to mean time frame (over the course of a week, a year?) but also how the narrative handles foreshadow & backstory

Where is it located - setting in time & space, includes associated culture and culture conflict, is setting intimately tied to the narrative, if location were removed, could the story still occur?

Why we care - core concept, theme & messaging

How it unfolds - motivation, tension, conflict, & consistency (AKA pace)

All BL, at its heart, is about two characters falling in love and/or fighting to maintain that love. One of the reasons to study cinematic narrative is to understand how tropes (situations) and archetypes (characterizations) can be used to formulate story under a romantic framework.

For me, good storytelling allows me to cleanly comprehend all 6 elements above, as well as the general point of view (lens & scope). I also like it when elements are married to (or dependent on) each other (for example, a plot point that could only occur in a historical setting). I like it when visuals (directing style, wardrobe, etc) as well as tropes and archetypes are used to serve the story (Korea does this) and not be the story (Thai BL pulps do this).

Some of my favorite BLs of all time are not on the above list. E.g To My Star and We Best Love because while I adore them for many reasons story structure is definitely not one of them. This is where visual pop culture can win over literary conceits - in cinema a weak story can be elevated by killer acting, directing, chemistry, visual elements, production etc... (Of course a strong author voice can carry a written work too. Terry Pratchett, for example, is weak on story but hella strong on voice.)

The purpose of BL is entertainment, I happen to be entertained by strong story, so I will often rate BLs higher because of it.

Asian Film Industries & Story Content Mechanics

Original screenplays are more common in BL over all, but my list actually leans towards adaptations. That’s because i think Thailand, the biggest BL producer, tends to do better with adaptations, so far as story is concerned.

Thailand has more y-novels than mangas, which is what they tend to adapt from.

Japan has more yaoi mangas than gay novels, so that’s what they turn into BL (AKA live action yaoi). Yaoi, historically, it pretty weak on story structure.

Korea does not have a robust original written content machine (read: v. small publishing industry that’s not queer friendly). Korea doesn’t want to spend money to acquire/option adaptation rights from Japan (for good reasons, mostly cultural, political, economic, and historical). Their stuff is equally divided between original screenplays or adapted manwhas. Their adaptations are weaker on story structure because of conflicting lengths - manwhas are long (and often unfinished at time of adaptation) but Korean BLs are short.

Taiwan has Korea’s problem of a small publishing industry, but without Korea’s money to spend on production, so they also can’t really afford to buy rights to adapt. What they have is killer talent, chemistry, and plucky enthusiasm, so boy do I wish they could get better stories.

Not Talked About

Vietnamese and Pinoy BL are both very young industries still finding their legs, much of their stuff is pretty experimental narratively (read... it waffles). Which is the main reason I don’t follow those two as closely as I do other BL producing countries. I think that it’s just a matter of them coming to terms with the 6 narrative elements in a way that translates more tight and clear on the screen. It’s gonna take some time.

(List is compiled end of Sept 2022. New BLs may change matters.)

2023 Update... Some thoughts on Pacing

Now in the above post I wasn't thinking specifically about pace. So I’m gonna add soem stuff from a recent ask I got.

Thai stuff is always gonna be slower paced than Korean stuff. Also something like 4, or 6 act structure will often FEEL slow to western viewers.

I think the pace of a show is partly a judgement call on behalf of the viewer but also heavily cultural, so let me try to explain.

Structure, Pace, Plot

Structure, or the writing of a narrative script, can be divided into plot vs pace as follows:

Plot: movement of characters through time (scene by scene) and space (setting) and the people they meet along the way (dialogue).

Pace: how the plot is executed in terms of which scenes follow which, presence or absence of flashbacks, cuts, voice over work, but also literal words on the page - staging instructions, dialogue sentence structures, monologuing and so forth.

Plot = what is written in the script

Pace = how it's written in that script

This is going to get further complicated once an entire film crew gets ahold of that script.

Plot is characters moving through time, space, and interactions in the show AKA WHAT the characters are doing.

Pace is how that script and story now in the hands of the performers is relayed to the viewers using camera angles, dialogue delivery, staging AKA HOW those characters are filmed.

Plot is the responsibility of the actors and script writers

Pace is the responsibility of the directorial and editing teams.

Thus a part of the world that has good talent but poor production values, like Thailand, Philippines, or Vietnam, will always be weaker on pacing. But they can churn out something raw and brilliant IF they have a good script.

On the other hand, a place that has great everything but just really likes to mess with story structure and style, like Japan, might ALSO have weak pacing because that isn't their focus or interest.

In the first case they lack the editing talent, money, and technology. In the second they lack the will, and just like the play with structure A LOT.

But this means each country that produces BL ends up needing to be judged on its own merits and choices (or lack of choice) IMHO.

So, I stand by my list above. I think of it as representing all round story execution to the capacity of the country of origin. They are still the best story, although by western standards that story structure may feel a little off - depending on how you feel about that country's style of BL.

I might add a few to the above list (from late 2022-2023)

Semantic Error - of course. This show is perfect, after all.

The Eighth Sense - Korea went gritty and tense, outside their comfort zone, and executed it sublimely well

Love Tractor - Korea frmly and entirely in their comfort zone but the pace never lets up

Jun & Jun - a master class in pure sappy fluffy romance but still knuckle biting tension, I was upset at the end of every episode that i couldn't watch the next one INSTANTLY, in TV that = pitch perfect pacing

Tokyo in April is... - this is paced beautifully for Japan, very tense but with Japan's signature artsy atmosphere, it's not it's fault I didn't like the story

Laws of Attraction - this is a plot-based pacing story, like UWMA, and these tend to be the ones Thailand paces best using plot to amp up tension, unfortunately that best can still feel a little weak on actual story strcture and basic plotting, e.g. they can go off the rails easily like Manner of Death or KinnPorsche, but at least this kind of Thai show keep us intrigued for the next episode.

I'm gonna mention Bed Friend here at the end, as a lesson in pacing.

If this show had stuck to its guns and stayed 8 episodes, rather than stretching to fill 10 at the last minute, it would have been a near perfect high heat show out of Thailand. But it didn't have the confidence, and it likely wanted the money from those two added episodes. It's a real shame.

I gotta say I think this is the fans’ fault.

People always want more of a good thing, or more of the same thing, it's why we get shitty 2nd seasons. Sometimes what we need for truly better cinema is LESS of the good thing - better editing, tighter scripts - because that way the pace will be superior. Especially in genres that aren’t action forward (those fuckers can just explode shit, have people running around and punching. I don’t know, some viewers like that.)

Of course Thailand (i’m looking at you mame) thinks adding in lost of sex does the same thing... action is action, after all. It’s not. Action is plot, not pace.

But that’s a whole other rant.

Fic Recommendations: ღ Grandma Recs - ღ Grandpa Recs

ATEEZ

ღ Seonghwa: On One Condition by @ateezmakemeweep

➳ Bad Boy!AU? Yes, please. The spin on A Walk to Remember works so well (especially the angst portion), and this time it comes with a happy ending! It's one of those fics when you need an escape and need to feel something. I went through the same pain as I did when I watched the movie, but it definitely had its own twist and spin from the author that works so well. Frankly, I come back to this fic rather than watching the movie and it's such a better option.

ღ San: forgetting something? by @tbhchoi

➳ this was a very cute fluffy drabble that gives you a good chuckle. i’m a sucker for fluff (i need to escape pls hand the fluff over) so this was a really nice story to stumble across! san 🤝 me, sleeping through alarms.

ღ Hongjoong: Troublemaker by @kpophogwartsaus

➳ let me start by saying I AM A SUCKER FOR HOGWARTS AUS (we still hate r*wling), you’ll prob see a lot of recs from me that are like this. i had originally seen this and sent it to my friend who is a hongjoong stan and read it along with her. i love the banter between hongjoong and the reader, plus the comedy from both mingi and yunho (god i love them). if you like friends to lovers au’s, harry potter, a good laugh, and mild chaos, this is the fic for you.

ღ San: slytherin!au san by @warmau

➳ well would you look at that another hogwarts au who would have guessed. listen y’all everything from skye is so good i recommend literally anything and everything but this right here *chefs kiss*. some suggestive themes, little bit of angst, and a cute ending. i give this a 10/10. (Also would recommend bc Skye is a goddamned mastermind and I'm not even San biased. - Grandma)

BTS

ღ Seokjin: Pride and Fidget Spinners [M] by @kpopfanfictrash

➳ Enemies to lovers is my ultimate weakness. Out of all of Shanna's works, this is my ultimate favorite and I'm not even Seokjin biased. It's super cute as their relationship progresses because it's so petty but so relatable and I'm so soft for goofy Seokjin. 10/10 would recommend.

ღ Hoseok: Plant Boy by @gukyi

➳ We hate JK R*wling in this house, but we love a Hogwarts AU. This was just so soft and fluffy and I love works like this because it makes me so soft, especially when it comes to my boy Hoseok. This fic is great for a pick-me-up when you're having a shitty day. (I ALSO ADD THIS MY RECS I FUCKIN LOVED THIS FIC -grandpa)

ღ Hoseok: Occultation [M] by @jamaisjoons

➳ The way that this fucked me up... I felt so much as I was reading throughout like. It's fitting, considering how Armys perceive him as some kind of sun god and I.... pain. I'm telling you that this is a great read, but be warned of the angst that will hit. Hard. There are small times where I feel upset and this weirdly makes me feel better? It's hard to explain, but the emotions of it all really hit.

ღ Jimin: Nine-One-One [M] by @yminie

➳ Fun fact: I am a sucker for true crime and this fic was able to capture the thrill of the mystery of a dangerous killer. There was also the element of an ex-lover and it oddly worked really well. I'm not really into reading series, but this was one of the rare exceptions. However, I would note that you shouldn't read this alone at night in the dark because I got a little freaked out.

GOT7

ღ JayB: College!AU by @warmau

➳ Okay, yes: anything written by Skye is wonderful, but this one has a soft spot in my heart. I'm not a JayB stan, but I am not a blind woman. The man is fine and we all know it. It's just a good storyline and I love how they end up getting together. It's just some good ol' fashioned romance and I. LOVE. IT.

NCT

ღ Johnny: Set Up [M] by @smileysuh

➳ I usually hate frat!aus bc it's frat aus and I get war flashbacks. But enemies to lovers man. It's my ultimate weakness. I love re-reading it because the comedy is top tier and I feel like it's very fitting for the NEO boys. It's a great read.

ღ Jaehyun: The Apple of My Eye by @sehunniepotwrites

➳ I'm an education major and this hit me so hard in the feels since I'm going into my internship this year. Fun fact: another weakness of mine is men who are good with children and it's so fitting for Jaehyun (considering he wanted to be a teen dad 🤡). I was totally weak in the knees for a lovestruck Jaehyun and then throw in that he's a kindergarten teacher..... pain. But it's the good kind.

ღ Jeno: Love & Letter by @asthmark

➳ Guess who secretly loves angst? Me, it's me. I loved so much of it: the pining, the letters, and the whole club supporting Jeno. And then there was Renjun. Wow, he was a piece of work and I had a feeling he was gonna be that shitty boyfriend as the fic was progressing. The writing was just so spectacular and that made the angst hit like a bitch.

ღ Yangyang: Lonely Hearts Columns by @naptaemed

➳ I love this fic; this is top tier in my category. It was just so funny and so fitting for the NEO boys. I loved each dynamic that was paired with the main character because you can see the difference in comparison to YangYang. I also thought it was funny watching the two dance around one another: we love an idiots to lovers!au.

SVT

ღ Mingyu: Walking Into Traffic [M] by @versigny

➳ I. LOVE. SOULMATE. AUS. It also has enemies to lovers!au in the best absolute way and I swear to god, this is just genius. I think this is the one that has stuck the most by me and it's absolutely hilarious. The progression of it all can all be in 6k words? Wow. I just love this fic and I constantly go back for it. I literally almost died inside when I realized I didn't officially have it tabbed/saved.

Stray Kids

ღ Changbin: lip balm by @lixesque

➳ THE WAY I WAS HOLLERING READING THIS LMAO. i would definitely go back and read this is i ever needed a little pick me up, it was downright hilarious. if you like fluff and comedy this is the one for you!

HSMTMTS Season 3 Predictions and Character Analysis

Ricky & Nini:

Ricky and Nini have a complicated relationship. I feel like they have the whole dynamic of “right person, wrong timing” vibe. They have chemistry and a bond with each other. However, for them to grow as a couple, they really need to have character development first. Nini really needs to figure herself out and who she truly wants to be and figure out her dreams and how she wants to pursue them. We had the whole YAC arc in season 2, where she goes there because she thought it was something that she wanted, but she realized that YAC was not truly what she wanted and isn’t what makes her happy. So, she’s slowly trying to figure herself out with independence and not relying on anyone except herself. In Season 1, most of her moments were with Ricky, with only the YAC arc really showcasing her independence, but her reliance on others in season 1 and parts of season 2. For example, Kourtney was the one who submitted her application to YAC, and partially her reasons for coming back to East High were also her relationship with her friends and Miss Jenn. Also, the fact that Carlos posted her song online, and she asked Ashlyn for help to write “Ain’t see nothing.” However, in episode 11 and 12, really starts showcasing her independence and stop relying on others for her journey. She BECOMES the one other people rely on, she hypes everyone up for their performances and is really figuring herself out and blossoming like the Rose. It is a great metaphor for Nini’s journey, and the fact that she herself calls Jamie’s brother instead of other people doing it for her, really makes it more special. Gina could’ve easily called her brother and be like “Oh yeah I have this friend who’s a great songwriter, yadda yadda.” But she does it herself, which is really great. Now with Ricky. Many people would agree with the fact that he truly does need therapy. He needs to learn how to handle change, and dare I say, realizing that other people are more important in his life. Personally, I felt like Ricky was very selfish this season. Last season, he was being selfish as he broke up with Nini because he couldn’t say I love you, and once school started again, he wanted Nini back so badly, but he proved himself worthy at the final episode when he stops being Troy to give Nini a chance to perform for YAC. However, this season once he and Nini are back together again, he was being selfish and thinking of himself again. When Nini goes to YAC, all he could really think about was how HER leaving was affecting him and his relationship with her.

For example, he would ask Gina for help on HIS own relationship, and sending Nini the message of how much he missed her and wishes she would be there because HE misses her so much. And thinking that Nini came home for him and him only. Plus, he thinks that the rose song that she wrote was SPECIFICALLY related to him, and then the whole situation with Miss Jenn and his dad, in which he was only thinking about himself and his feelings, with no regards to theirs. However, in episode 10, he finally stops being selfish and really opened his eyes to his surroundings, as he helped Carlos with his song for Seb. I hope this development continues, and once he realizes that he needs to stop being selfish, and is able to handle change and mature as a person, then maybe the Rini ship can happen once again. Another thing I’ve noticed about their “angst” in season 2 was the long-distance relationship, especially in episode 3. Although, Ricky and Nini were in the same city, throughout the episode, it still felt like they were going long-distance, which was probably foreshadowing their breakup. They only communicated through their phones that episode, and even at the end, their songs for each other wasn’t sang in person, but through the phone. As for predictions on the Rini relationship, I think that if Tim only plans on 3 seasons, then Rini will probably get back together at the end of Season 3, but if he has 4 seasons planned (which I am hoping for), then Rini will probably get back together then. Now we also have to take into consideration the career of Olivia Rodrigo. We do not know if she wants to continue with HSM, and even she herself is not sure. What I think will happen is, if Olivia decides she wants to take her music career to the next level, I think a really easy way to write her out without breaking the contract, would be to have her travel to L.A. to work on her music for the summer, so that there will be reason as to why she is absent for most of the season. This will probably take 1 episode to do and Olivia can spend the rest of her time focusing on her music. However, if Olivia decides she still wants to work full time in this season, then she might stay in Salt Lake and do the musical and write some songs for Jamie, etc but personally I think Olivia would want to focus on her music more than the show, as she posts about it more on social media than the show, and even with interviews. Nini might return for the final episode when summer ends and the new school year starts, so Olivia might just be in like 2 episodes. That’s my take on Rini for now, we get back to Ricky later.

E.J. & Gina:

Portwell is literally my favourite ship of the series, and it is just amazing. I personally would not like to see any angst in their relationship next season, but honestly it is probably going to happen and here’s why. Their relationship was built really steadily and took a long time to flourish. With other couples, like Seblos, Redlyn and Kowie, they got together awfully fast, taking 2-3 episodes to truly get together. So, the angst that those couples go through gets resolved rather quickly. Seblos with their relationship gets solved within 1-2 episodes, for the whole “does he like me because im the only gay one” storyline. Redlyn has the whole “Antoine” situation (which I will get back to later) and the “Red’s future” which again, took 1 episode to resolve. And Kourtney and Howie took 1-2 episodes to resolve the whole “Howie is from North high” and “Why Howie seems weird”. The reason is because those couples got together really quickly, and therefore their angst can be easily resolved through that, and wouldn’t really take time to fix. As you can see, Rini took a while to really get together. They were childhood friends off screen and we get to see their past relationship through flashbacks in season 1, but technically they took around 10 episodes to fully get back together. They have their cute., fluffy episodes for the first 4-5 episodes of season 2, but then their angst slowly starts to build at episode 5-6. It drags on until episode 8 where they fully break up, and counting episode 9 with their take on how they’re handling the breakup, so that’s around 5 episodes worth of angst for the couple that took 10 episodes to get together. So, with Portwell, they’ve technically been building them up at the end of season 1, but we’ll truly count the buildup starting from the Quincenero episode, which is episode 5, and they had 7 episodes worth of relationship buildup. So, I think, for the first 4 episodes, we’ll see some fluff and cute moments between the two when summer starts (and hopefully some kisses cuz like please I need to see at least one), but the angst will probably start in the middle of the season. It might take like around 4-5 episodes to fix, but I truly believe that they will not break up, and it will get resolved either near the final episode or the final episode of the season. Now for the REASON of their angst. I truly think the only “angst” worthy storyline is about EJ going off the college. As I can’t think of anything else that can topple their relationship. Firstly, EJ knows about the chocolates, which makes me think that he probably knows about Gina’s past crush on Ricky. Secondly, they resolved the whole “Big Brother” situation, and EJ knows that Gina doesn’t see her in that way. And the character development of E.J. and Gina. Back in season 1, they were arrogant and straight up ambitious people, who really don’t care about how others feel, but they truly changed as people in season 1 and 2, and had their character development moments. The contrast with them and Rini is that Season 1 focused on rini’s relationship development and season 2 and maybe 3 will really focused on their CHARACTER development. For Portwell, I think that would be flipped as they already had their Character development in season 1 and 2, so we probably will see their RELATIONSHIP development in season 3. So, since they already had their character development, I think it would be pointless to have unnecessary drama about their personalities or jealousy or whatnot, since they truly developed as people. So, the only thing I can possibly think of for their angst is EJ college arc. I know that they will probably fix it, but still I’m dreading to see it as I don’t want Portwell angst anymore. ☹ (ALSO PLEASE GIVE ME A PORTWELL DUET!! I NEED IT! Also, an EJ solo)

Ricky & Gina:

Personally, I do not ship Rina. I don’t think they would make a good couple; however, I think they would be really good friends. Someone they could confide in about their issues like Gina said “Sometimes I tell you things I don’t tell anyone else” and Ricky being like “I think we do that for each other.” We didn’t really get to see Ricky and Gina resolve their issues in season 2, partly because of Ricky’s character development. I am hoping to see in season 3, Ricky working on himself and fixing up his friendship with Gina. I think something that might happen is when Gina is going through her angst with EJ, and Ricky going through his own angst with Lily, they might be able to give each other advice and on how to handle it. However, PLEASE for the love of God, do not drag the whole love triangle back, because we do not need it. Gina has truly gotten over Ricky, and Ricky never seeing Gina as someone for his romantic relationship anyways, and he really needs to work on himself more, they should not be together as a couple. However, I do hope that they amend their friendship and is able to confide in each other once more, which I think will be cool and really help with Ricky’s character development.

Ricky & Lily:

Now this one. We know they will not be endgame, and I am 90% sure of the fact that Lily does not have romantic feelings for Ricky. Sure, she might find him attractive (and I mean who can blame her, Joshua Bassett is gorgeous), but she definitely does not like him in that way. We can see it when she “confesses” to him, she said to him “I like your brown hair and brown eyes” which are all physical descriptions of him, nothing about his personality which makes sense because she barely knows him, so how could she develop feelings for someone she doesn’t know. She has also stolen the harness, so we know that there would be no way that she likes him, and at the end of season 2, we don’t even get to see her feeling guilty about doing it, because she likes him. So that definitely setting in stone on how she’s only using him and manipulating him. Now for Ricky, yes you might be thinking “oh he’s calling her, why?” But Ricky does not know what we know. He was not there when Lily was talking to Gina about their roles as Belle, he was not there when Lily was laughing at Big Red, he was not there when she had a conversation with Miss Jenn, and he was not there when she planned with Antoine and when she stole the harness. In Ricky’s eyes, the reason that she was so mean to them is because of the Menkies, and their schools were enemies and rivals for it. He doesn’t know about Lily’s evil and ambitious side, and he believes that the Menkies might have made her that way. For example, he knows that the Menkies has turned Miss Jenn into someone different and a little bit mean, so he assumed the same for Lily, and when she asked for a second chance, Ricky gave it to her as he didn’t know. I feel like for the first couple of episodes, it will show Lily and Ricky “bonding” or getting to know each other, but Lily lying about the whole situation and really planning something behind his back, but we don’t know what yet. Maybe Ricky will be like “Huh, she’s a cool person, I’m starting to like her.” But then figuring out her plan, and finding out that she stole the harness. He then will be very upset and kind of heartbroken as he gave her a chance and she was only manipulating him the whole time. Maybe then, his character development will continue to grow and he will realize that he does not need to be in a relationship right now, and that he needs to work on himself and mature as a person. And I think him and Lily’s “relationship” will be a strong pushing point that he needs.

Seb & Carlos:

Now Seblos is one of my favourite ships in the show, and I love them to bits and pieces. However, as regarding their relationship, I feel like they have already resolved all their angst in season 2, it will be hard to make up angst for them in season 3, if they ever have one. I would like to say this though, I knew there was going to be angst for them in season 2, but the way they built it up, I thought the angst would be about how Carlos’ family is really rich, and Seb can’t compare because he lives on a farm, and it might make him self-conscious. Cause that’s where it seemed to be leading in the first few episodes of Season 2 (the sled, cashmere etc.). However, they brought a completely different angst to them which I thought was pretty surprising. Personally, I think they should’ve done the “class/money” difference in season 2, and then maybe the whole “why are you with me” angst for season 3, but maybe they MIGHT switch it around for season 3, and have the whole “class/money” difference then. Although, that’s probably the only “issue” I see for them ever, cause they’re a power couple and like what other angst could there be? Maybe they’ll introduce a new love interest but I highly doubt it because they already resolved the “I choose you always” in season 2. So, hoping there’s no Seblos angst, but if they do decide to throw in one, that might be the one they’ll do.

Big Red & Ashlyn:

Again, Redlyn is one of my favourite ships and they’re just so amazing. However, their storyline is hopefully again, all fluff for season 3, but one thing I realised that they didn’t really resolve in season 2 was the whole “Antoine” storyline. After episode 7, they never really talked about it again and introduced the new angst next episode with the whole “Career” thing. I feel like Antoine will be a more recurring character in season 3, as he only got like what? 10 minutes worth of screentime this season? (Maybe even less) and especially at the end as he joined Natalie in the final scene. So maybe there will be more of him in the next season, and slowly moving in on Ashlyn and making Big Red feeling like he’s not good enough, and then maybe Redlyn will FINALLY get their “I love you” confession then, because WE NEED IT! I’m manifesting for Redlyn “I love you” next season, and I think the whole situation with Antoine would be a nice way for Ashlyn to TRULY confirm to Big Red how much she loves him and how grateful she is for him, and vice versa. (Also manifesting for more EJ and Big Red friendship moments, like maybe Big Red goes for EJ for advice for his relationship with Ashlyn, and maybe EJ confiding in Big Red for Gina as well)

Kourtney & Howie:

As for Kourtney and Howie, they’re probably still going to work at the pizza shop together and continue to bond. A plot point that I think will be very interesting is maybe Kourtney trying to convince Howie to move to East High, but Howie kind of not wanting to, because he spent like 3 years there and it’s kind of his home. That might be a nice storyline to do, or it can be the opposite, where Howie is trying to transfer to North High, but Kourtney being worried like “Is he going to North High for me? I don’t want that, what if he hates it here”, but Howie confirming that he’s going to North High because the environment for him is better there and less competitive and toxic than North High. That might be a storyline that can happen for these two. I would also like for them to have a duet as well; I think Dara’s strong voice goes well with Roman’s soft voice and it would mesh well together.

Miss Jenn & Mr. Mazarra:

Now this one is a toughie, but I have some theories. Now we know that Ricky has given Miss Jenn permission to date his dad, which is another great character development for him, as he’s handling change and seeing other people’s happiness. However, as soon as he gave her permission, Mr. Mazarra confesses his feelings for Miss Jenn, which seemingly makes her happy, as we did get to see a little smile on her face when he did. Throughout Season 2, Benjamin was really the one comforting her, and giving her courage for the Menkies. We see it through episode 8, when he helped Miss Jenn film the commercial and how he put so much effort into making her coffee and setting up a table, just so she could relax. Same goes for episode 10, when she confides in him, and he acting like a therapist to her and accepting her anxious feelings, and helping her feel calmer and better. They are both opening up to each other. And I believe Miss Jenn truly appreciates him as a colleague and a friend. Now another moment is when Ricky’s dad comes to the show with flowers, and she was talking with Mr. Mazarra at the moment. When he called out her name, she smiles awkwardly and immediate turns to Mr. Mazarra saying something along the lines up “Why we always running into him?” and very awkwardly makes his way to him and you could tell she was slightly uncomfortable, with her awkward smiles and everything. This really contrasts from episode 3, where she herself walks up to Ricky’s dad and starts up a conversation, and how now, it is the other way around. Now, the whole problem of Mr. Mazarra leaving for Caltech. He confesses his romantic feelings to Miss Jenn, and really emphasizes on how she’s the only one who is stopping him from running off the California, which I believe that she is a big part of why, but also not fully. We really get to see Mr. Mazarra bonding with a lot of the students this season as well, E.J., Ricky, etc. I feel like he truly cares for his students, and in season 3, maybe he is thinking about if he really wants to stay in Utah for his students and of course, his budding relationship with Miss Jenn. Now, there was a scene in episode 4, where he was confiding to EJ about his rejection from Caltech. And he admits to EJ how he doesn’t think about Caltech very much anymore. He’s made his peace with it. This kind of mirrors EJ’s situation about Duke. EJ didn’t get into Duke from his own accord, but rather his dad got him in. Same can be said for Mr. Mazarra, EJ’s dad made the call for him for Caltech, and he didn’t really get in from his own as well, as he said previously, He was rejected many, many times. So maybe next season will really show him and his decision of staying at East High back in the fall, or leaving for Caltech. Now moving back to Miss Jenn. Next season, I feel like will focus on her and the students more, as this season, she was a really crappy teacher, and kept pushing them due to stress and wanting them to beat her ex at the Menkies. This season, I believe that she will return to the teacher that she was in season 1, and really focusing and hyping up the kids’ talents. I would love to see that Miss Jenn come back, and really help her students. Of course, the whole love triangle debacle will probably be fixed, I can maybe see Miss Jenn going out on a date with Ricky’s dad but thinking of Mr. Mazarra the whole time, and Ricky’s dad is a good man, so he might notice something is different about her, and tells her to go for it, her relationship with Mr. Mazarra before he moves or something. Also, since in season 2, we got to see Mr. Mazarra comfort Miss Jenn a lot, maybe this season will have Miss Jenn comforting Mr. Mazarra about Caltech, and if he truly wants to leave his students. Another thing I’d like to maybe see is Mr. Mazarra singing a song for Miss Jenn. We know that Mark St. Cyr has a good voice, as we saw from the Christmas special. So, him singing to Miss Jenn even though he doesn’t like musicals that much and all that, would show a lot of character development from Season 1.

Overall Plot:

Now, I have a few theories about summer. I’ve seen a lot of people saying they will go to a camp like “Camp Rock” which I think will be very likely to happen, and they put up a musical. What I can also see happening, is like High School Musical 2, where they go to a resort for work, and then putting up a musical there for the audience as well. Or they could just stay in Utah, and just relax for the summer, and not have any musical but just a lot of original songs about their summer in general and the stuff they’re going through. If they do a musical, I don’t think that they’ll do a musical from a movie or theatre, but rather write their own musical. I think it would be a really interesting concept, it can show us more imaginative and creative concept for a musical and have more original songs for the season. I would truly love to see that.

So that’s all for the character analysis and predictions I have for Season 3, sorry if it’s long lol

I want to see your WIP's!

Youre the best writer, I want to see what you're working on! Please and thankyou 😘

Hey Anon! Thank you so much! It means so much hearing that! :) I have quite alot. I don't know if you want just titles or summaries of all of them so I'll just post some screenshots and explain them, this might be a long post haha They will also be in no offical order, this is just how they are laid out on my google docs lol

This one is called My Shooting Star. It's about how Victor and my OC Cassandra had confessed to one another and became a couple! This is a fluffy WIP

This is a recent one, it's called Cooking for 3. (The title of this might change, as its still in the works!) This in particular is a collab with a certain friend of mine! We were discussing the details of it earlier from an idea she suggested for our shared universes. It will be about Victor, Cassandra and Victor's sister; Nicolette cooking on a meal on a rainy Sunday afternoon, bonding, laughing and talking with one another. This is another fluffy WIP

This one in particular is called The Calm Before A Storm. (might change this title as well.) Its a gift for a certain someone! She had this discussion with me about an idea she had but couldn't seem to write herself. I volunteered to write it. This takes place in her universe with her character Nicolette and Victor. It's basically about a storm in the middle of the night. Nicolette is wide awake, drinking a cup of tea, wrapped up in a warm blanket unable to sleep so she is just peacefully watching the storm from the window. Victor ends up waking up and comes to join her! Another fluffy WIP

The first one on the left is called Old Consquences with Bitter Memories. This one is takes place when Cassandra and Victor first started dating (the first couple months into their relationship) they are at a charity event that Victor had to attend to. Cassie went with him as his plus one. However when they get there and start mingling with a bunch of business associates, Cassie manages to spot out her abusive ex boyfriend amongst the big crowd which has her spiral into flashbacks and causes her to go into a panic attack and she ends up dissociating really badly. Of course, Victor takes notice of this and tries to bring her back to him. An angst hurt/comfort WIP (This may or may not have a happy ending)

The second one on the right is called Victor's Doubts. As the title might give away, Victor is experiencing some doubts. This would take place the first year Cassandra and Victor are married. Cassandra has a severe case of separation anxiety. And because she has this type of anxiety, she has a hard time separating herself from those she loves, especially Victor. It becomes rather difficult whenever Victor has to leave on business trips that last longer or just in general when he has to go to work. Because of this problem, Victor fears and doubts that he isn't good enough for Cassandra and thinks she deserves to be with someone who can always be there by her side and not leave her all alone. However when bringing this to Cassandra's attention she quickly shuts it down and tells and shows him how much he means to her and that she would never want to be with anyone else. This is another angst hurt/comfort WIP. (This one will have a happy ending)

Similar to the second one listed above, this one is called Separation. This would also take place in the first year of Cassandra's and Victor's marriage and basically is going to be about what separation anxiety is like for Cassandra whenever Victor has to leave for a business trip. This is an angst hurt/comfort WIP

This one may be familiar if you've already read parts 1 and 2 on my blog but this one is "You'll Be Happier..." Part 3! If you dont know, this is the story in which Cassandra becomes matchmaker for Victor to help him get with Mia. However she has her own feelings for Victor but she sets them aside to help him achieve his happiness. This is an angst WIP

Following the previous one this is called "I Messed Up..." Basically an alternative universe to "You'll Be Happier..." and the official story of how Cassandra and Victor get together in the third universe I have listed on Cassandra's profile! Which means it involves Victor's sister; Nicolette. She plays a huge part in this story specifically. It's basically about how Victor realizes he went after the wrong girl and realizes his own feelings for Cassandra. Mia also ends up rejecting Victor on their date leaving him heartbroken, he tries to go to Cassandra however when she isnt there, the realization hits him. Thinking its too late, his sister, Nicolette comes over and talks to him about it and he asks her to help him make things right with Cassandra. In the process of doing so something ends up happening to Nicolette after she leaves, ending up in the hospital which ends up bringing Cassandra and Victor together as a couple. This is an angst hurt/comfort WIP! (Just like "You'll Be Happier..." This story has 3 parts. I finished writing out the first part because of how eagar I was to write it and am currently working on the second one!)

And last but not least, this one is called Letters to Victor & Nicolette. This is another gift for a certain someone and it takes place in her universe where Cassandra is Victor's sister. Cassandra writes these letters to her brother and sister-in-law as her gift for their wedding day. This is a fluffy WIP!

I have a bunch more WIP but these are my current ones that I have been trying to clear out. As you can probably tell I come up with ideas before actually finishing the stuff I've already started which is really bad lol but I am working my best when I am inspired so I guess thats the plus side of that. Eventually I'll be able to get through all of them when I actually can get the time out of my busy schedules lol

Thanks for asking this! It was definitely a lot to explain but I had fun. Hope this clears up everything. I hope you have a good day/afternoon/night! <3

~Cassie

New beginnings [P.P]

A/N: I guess I’m unofficially back or in other words I got too excited that I finished a fic and wanted to post it. I was inspired by the picture of Tom in a graduation cap and I really wanted to write Peter’s graduation which hopefully we’ll see in the movies. Anyway enjoy and now I’m gonna go hibernate until I can actually write the next chapter of tale as old as time.

I’m also looking for a new beta reader for my fics so please let me know if you’d be interested!

Pairing: Peter Parker x reader

WC: 2.9k

Warnings: some angst and tears but mostly fluffy fluff

Peter took a deep breath as he looked at himself in the mirror. It almost felt like a dream version of himself staring back as he looked at the black robes and graduation cap that sat on his head. He’d dreamt and wondered about this day for so long and now it was finally here. His high school graduation.

His eyes flickered over to the photo frames that stood on his dresser, two men stared back at him and Peter imagined their proud faces. He wished with all his heart that they could see him walk across that stage or give his speech.

“They’re still here with you and they’d be so proud Peter.”

Peter turned as he heard his aunt’s voice from the doorway. He sniffled and nodded, not realising that tears had started to form in his eyes. May wrapped her arms around him and hugged him close. He melted into the familiar comfort and hugged his Aunt just as tightly back.

“Thanks May.”

She pulled back and adjusted his cap, smiling proudly at her nephew. He’d been through so much even death and yet here he was, valedictorian of his class and ready to graduate.

“I’m proud of you too.”

Peter could sense May began to cry and he quickly shook his head with a laugh. “If you cry, I’m gonna cry and then neither of us will get to the ceremony on time.”

She gave a watery laugh and patted his cheek, taking a deep breath. “You’re right. I’m gonna go get the car ready.”

“Thanks May!” He called after her as she left his room, closing the door behind her and leaving Peter once again to his thoughts. He rehearsed his speech again and then again, nerves growing in the pit of his tummy.

Just as he was leaving his phone buzzed. He worried that it would be an alert of some kind but Peter was pleased to see your name staring back at him with the words “Good luck!” and a dozen heart emojis underneath. He smiled wide as he headed to the car and met May, suddenly feelings less nauseous than before.

May tried to speak to Peter on the drive but he could only focus on one of two things: you and his speech. He imagined what you would be wearing and the smile that could instantly make him feel better as it lit up a room. May noticed a pink tint forming on Peter’s cheeks and smiled to herself as she saw you waiting for him outside the school.

“Ready?” She looked over at her nephew and smiled, sighing softly. May couldn’t believe how much Peter had grown and how far he’d come in such a short time. He wasn’t the scared kid she knew anymore, he was braver and stronger and he’d faced everything that life had thrown at him. He deserved this moment of happiness.

Peter nodded and took a deep breath, his hands tightly clutching the cards on which his speech was written.

“You got this.” May encouraged with a smile. “And it looks like it’s not just me cheering you on.” She nodded to where you were standing, waiting patiently for Peter. He looked over and the smile that broke out on his face was wide enough to squash all his fears.

You were wearing a pretty mid-length dress under your gown with a pair of sneakers and your hair perfectly styled underneath your cap. You looked beautiful. He told you so as he walked up to you, both of your eyes lighting up with happiness as Peter hugged you, practically picking you up off the ground.

Peter always made you blush with his compliments and he’d love it when your cheeks went red because of him. He thought it was the cutest thing. Even on your worst days, Peter would always tell you why he loved you and why you were the best thing that ever happened to him.

You and Peter had been dating for a little over a year now and there wasn’t a moment you would change. Even through the hardships and the fights, every moment with Peter was worth it. The biggest challenge had been college acceptance letters.

Peter had got accepted into Empire State University and you had chosen to go to Columbia. Luckily it was only a 25 minute drive but even you both knew how crazy college would probably get. You’d heard about relationships, not even just the long distance ones failing because of the workload of college plus with Peter’s spidey duties there was added stress but you had both made a promise to try your hardest to make it work. You couldn’t lose each other, not after everything you’ve been through.

He was always amazed by how perfectly your hand fit into his as if it were made to be held by him. You noticed as you walked closer to where the ceremony was taking place that Peter’s grip became tighter and his palms became sweatier.

“Hey, it’s gonna be okay.”

Peter looked at you and took a deep breath, nodding. He smiled as you cupped his cheek, leaning into your touch as it comforted him.

“Thank you princess.”

He leaned in and captured your lips in a sweet kiss, letting himself get distracted by the taste of your lips and the way they moved against his own. As he held you close he felt his nerves fade away and he felt he could take on anything. You were his anchor as his whole body felt on edge.

Peter had never been one for public speaking. Sure he would give speeches as Spidey when he needed to and even though he was still awkward and nervous, he was hidden behind a mask and no one would be able to make fun of him the next day.

As if you had read his mind, you placed your hand on his arm and kissed his cheek. “Pete, it’s the last time you’re gonna see most of these people so who cares what they think. Just keep your eyes on me, you got this.”

Your words brought comfort to Peter as he held onto the cards for his speech. He could feel the kiss on his cheek lingering and it made him feel stronger to know he had you to support him. You took his hand in yours once again and smiled before leading the way to your seats, right next to MJ and Ned who both gave Peter a thumbs up.

He waved at May a few rows behind them and smiled, remembering to focus on his breathing as the time drew nearer. He tried not to focus on how many people there were or the different sounds that made him on edge. You knew that when Peter was nervous his senses started to make him feel on edge so you squeezed his hand and leaned into his side.

Peter noticed your small gesture and focused instead on you; the smell of your perfume, the hum of your heartbeat and the way the sun was catching your face in a serene way. He calmed down almost instantly but it didn’t last long as soon after his name was called by Mr Harrington.

“I’d like to welcome your class valedictorian, Mr Peter Parker.”

The crowd of people applauded and it took Peter a moment to process as you pushed him lightly onto his feet. With one last squeeze of your hand, he pulled away and gave you a nervous smile as he walked up the small stairs to the stage.

Peter stood behind the podium and placed his cards down, his eyes fixated on them for a moment before he looked up at the audience. He took a deep breath, trying to stop the shake of his hands as he gripped onto the podium.

“Woo Penis Parker!”

It didn’t take two guesses to know who was shouting in the crowd but Flash was quickly shut down by MJ who kicked him in the shin. Peter smiled at that before his eyes found yours and he felt the anxiety in his mind quieten just enough for him to start speaking.

As he spoke and delivered his speech about gratitude and learning, his eyes rarely left yours. He rambled a bit off text as he thought of funny anecdotes to tell about his time at Midtown and he noticed the proud smile on your lips as well as the tears that had started to gather in your eyes.

“My time at Midtown has been interesting for sure. I’ve done things in the past 4 years that I would never have dreamed of and at one point I wasn’t even sure if I’d make it here.”

You sniffled, remembering when Peter had gone to space and left you and May worried and how the blip had almost threatened to tear you apart. You remembered the night that you first saw Peter after the battle, his face was bruised and the marks of cuts still lined his face but he was more broken beyond that. The emotional scars he’d suffered were far worse than any physical ones.

He used to lay in your arms and cry most nights and whenever he slept he’d wake with terrible nightmares. Sometimes he’d space out or have flashbacks that left him shaking but you held him through it all.

“I wouldn’t be here without my friends,” Peter gave a subtle nod to MJ and Ned who smiled back at him. “My family,” He looked over at May who was wiping her eyes with a tissue and Happy who was smiling back at him. “And my love.” His eyes finally met yours once again as he smiled wide. You felt a tear slip down your cheek but you didn’t even care as you smiled back.

“I am proud to be standing here as your valedictorian and you should all be proud of yourselves too. Part of the journey is the end and tomorrow will mark the start of the new ones we take wherever they lead.”

Peter smiled as he finished his speech, being met with loud applause from the crowd. You made sure to be extra loud and even gave a whistle which made Peter laugh. His cheeks were red but his smile was brighter than the sun as he walked off of the stage and came back to his seat. You wrapped your arms around him tightly and kissed his blushing cheek.

“I’m so proud of you baby.” You whispered as you both sat back down, Peter’s smile widening at your words as he took your hand and squeezed.

The rest of the ceremony went by slowly as you both waited for your names to be called. You watched MJ sigh as she went to grab her diploma but you could tell she was excited and that there was the hint of a smile playing on her lips as you, Peter and Ned all cheered for her.

Ned almost tripped up the stairs as he got his but quickly laughed it off and happily accepted his diploma. His family cheered just as loud as his friends and Ned walked off the stage with a wide smile, being careful not to trip again.

When it was your turn, you could feel the pace of your heart pick up, every nerve in your body was tingling. Peter kissed your cheek before you got up and made you blush as you went to accept your diploma. You swung the tassel of your cap to the other side and did a little bow which made Peter and your supporters in the crowd cheer even louder. You didn’t know if you wanted to laugh or cry more as you walked off stage.

Peter almost looked startled when they finally read his name. He got up quickly and walked up onto the stage, feeling more confident than he had before his speech. He smiled at the teachers and members of staff as he passed them before shaking hands as he got his diploma. He smiled out at the crowd focusing on you and May as you both cheered him on.

Peter wished he could freeze the moment, the two most important people in his life smiling proudly at him and he knew that if Tony and Ben could be here they would be too. And for the first time in a long time, Peter was proud of himself as he stood on that stage.

Soon enough all the names had been read and the ceremony was coming to a close. There were so many mixed emotions as the principal said the last words of his speech about moving on and wishing luck to all the graduates. It felt strange, like a dream. This chapter of your lives was really ending.

Peter watched all the graduation caps being thrown up into the air, it almost felt like slow motion as they fell to the ground signifying the end of his high school years. He was grateful and sad and happy all at once. Yeah there had been bad times but the good times far outweighed them.

He smiled as stole a kiss from you as you parted to go be with your own families. Peter headed towards May and Happy, accepting hugs from both of them.

“You did so good, honey!” May ruffled his curls, making Peter roll his eyes fondly. “Happy cried too.”

Happy gave May a look before looking back at Peter with a laugh. “Your speech was really good Peter.”

“Thanks, both of you.” Peter smiled at them, he owed a lot to both of them especially May who had raised him. She hugged him again tightly and kissed his head before noticing you walk up to the three of them.

“Congrats Y/n!” May pulled you into the hug with Peter, making both of you laugh. Peter was the first to pull back, his cheeks almost bright red as he gave his aunt a knowing look before asking if he could go with you. May nodded but not before kissing his cheek.

You swung your hand with Peter’s as you walked away with a giggle. Peter lifted your hand to his lips and kissed it, making you blush. You smiled and giggled with Peter as you walked away from everyone else, soon stopping at a nearby tree which you instantly recognised.

When Peter had first asked you to be his girlfriend, you were sitting under this tree reading as you sat between his legs on a warm summer day. You remembered the small shake in his voice as he asked you and how his smile had widened as you said yes. It was as easy as answering your own name.

Peter showed you a little tool knife which had his uncle's initials engraved and smiled. “I thought we could officially make this our spot.” You smiled wide and nodded, squeezing his hand before he started to carve both of your names with your help.

You both smiled proudly at your work, Peter tracing his fingers over the carving of your names with forever written underneath. “It’s perfect.” He turned to face you and cupped your cheek, brushing his thumb over your cheek, “just like you.”

You blushed and leaned into his touch, smiling softly at your boyfriend. Both of you felt so lucky to have each other especially after the blip. You never wanted to take each other for granted and you made sure you never did.

Peter’s hand slipped into his pocket and pulled out a small box, looking like it contained a ring. You looked at him with wide eyes in shock.

“P-Peter, I- are you-?”

Peter furrowed his brow before realising what you were saying, his eyes going as wide as yours. He quickly shook his head and blushed with a laugh. “N-no. Maybe one day but no I’m not proposing.”

You smiled at the mention of the future you hoped with Peter and let out a small sigh of relief. After all, you had only just graduated high school. That was a big enough life milestone for today.

“This is a promise ring.” Peter spoke as he opened the box, showing you a beautiful silver ring that was engraved, For me, there is only you. “I love you Y/n, i don’t know what i’d do without you and I don’t want to be without you. These past few years have been crazy for sure but you’ve been my anchor through it all. This ring is to remind you that even though we might be in different places and we might not be able to spend as much time together as we want, I will always be yours. It’s only you, always has been, always will be.”

You sniffled and wiped away a tear that escaped from your watery eyes. “Pete I-” You shook your head, feeling speechless as you held out your hand and Peter slipped the ring onto your finger. You didn’t know what to say so you said the only words that made sense in that moment. “I love you.”

“I love you too princess, so much.” Peter caught your tears before pulling you in for a kiss, locking his lips effortlessly with yours.

Peter knew that he’d lost a lot in such a short time and the pain of those losses might not ever go away but he had you and May, his friends and a new journey ahead of him that he was ready to take. Saying goodbye to a chapter of his life was hard but he had to focus on what laid ahead. After all, as a wise man once said; part of the journey is the end.

My Roommate’s Boyfriend 10/10

Pairing: Bucky x Reader

Summary: Your roommate’s boyfriend and you do not get along. You don’t even know why anymore. When your roommate has to move unexpectedly across the country, you both begrudgingly drive her car to her new home. Adventure, angst, and secrets come alive.

Warnings: severaly flashbacks in italics; Fluffy fluffy shit coming your way!

2 years later

You’re pacing around the room trying to get your emotions in check. Today was the day your life will change forever. Nat walked in, wearing her navy blue tea length dress. “Y/N, you have got to calm down and get dressed already!” she scolded.

You take a deep breath and look in floor length mirror. You hair and makeup were done to perfection and you were standing in your white silk robe. “What if we are not meant to be? What if this is a mistake?” you say, panic evident in your voice.

It was the day after you and Bucky finally talked it out. He planned on taking you out on a proper date this time. He told you he would pick you up at 7, and at exactly 7, you heard the buzzer.

You were running around like a chicken with your head cut off because you got out of work late, which never happens. You buzz him in and quickly run into your room to slip your dress on.

You heard the knock on the door and started to panic because your hair was a mess and you didn’t have makeup on. You run to the door, looking slight disheveled. You open it to see Bucky looking as handsome as ever.

Bucky furrowed his brows seeing the panic on your face. “You okay, doll?” He asks. You shake your head as tears start to form. “I got out of work late, and so I haven’t had time to fix my hair or my makeup and you planned this whole night and now I’m ruining it!” You said, choking on a sob.

Bucky quickly embraced you and kissed the top of your head. “Doll, I don’t care where our first date is, as long as I’m with you. If we miss dinner, we can go to the diner or get pizza. And you already look amazing.” He said with a shrug.

You look at him for a moment before you pull him close and kiss him. Bucky was taken aback at first, but then wrapped his arms around you. When you pulled back you looked at him. “Give me 10 minutes, and I’ll be ready.” You said softly before going into your room.

You knew at that point that Bucky was the one for you. Always and forever.

Nat took both your hands and made you look at her. “Do you love him?” she asks. You nod. “Do you want to be with him for the rest of your life?” she asks, and again you nod. “Then shut up with the stupid questions and get your ass dressed! You need to be walking down the aisle to your man in 10 minutes!” Nat said with authority. She pushed you toward your dress and smacked your ass.

Once you were in your white strapless floor length gown, that showed all your curves perfectly, you felt slightly more confident. You mom and dad walked and gushed over your beauty. You mom gave you a hug and left the room with Natasha to get ready to start the ceremony. Your dad offered his arm and led you out of the room.

Bucky was waiting at the end of the aisle with Sam and his other best friend Steve. When you entered the room with your dad, he couldn’t help but watch you walk toward him in awe. You had never looked so beautiful. He can’t believe you were finally going to be his forever.

You had been dating for a year, and it was the beat year of your life. Bucky had moved into your apartment, especially since you have him a key again after a month of dating. You both were the happiest you had ever been.

You were planning your next visit out to Nat in Seattle in the next month or so. You both are cuddled together on the couch looking at the computer to purchase plane tickets. Bucky has his arm wrapped around you, and every few minutes kisses you temple.

What started out as innocent, turned into a full blown make out session and then passionate love making. Your plane tickets forgotten. As you both lay on the couch, calming down from your exertion, Bucky turns your face to him.

“Marry me?” He asks softly, as he brushes the hair stuck to your face from sweat. You smile and tears come your your eyes. “Oh my god! Yes! Bucky, yes of course I will marry you!” You shout as you wrap your arms around his neck.

Bucky smiles and kisses you softly. “I was going to wait until Seattle, but I just couldn’t wait anymore. I love you, Y/N. You are everything to me. We were meant to be from the moment we saw each other, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

You can’t help crying tears of happiness. “I love you too, Bucky. I can’t wait to spend the rest of our lives together!” You say as you bring him in for another kiss.

Bucky and you were more then lovers and boyfriend/girlfriend. You were best friends. You told each other everything and anything. You barely fought anymore, though there was the occasional disagreement. You both swore to never go to bed angry, and that also pushed you to settle your quarrels quickly. Plus you couldn’t stand to be away from each other.

Nat was your cheerleader all the way through your relationship, which is why she is proudly standing by you as your maid of honor. She met her current boyfriend Bruce at work, and the two have been together for a year. She had never been so happy.

You and Bucky make frequent trips to Seattle to see Nat, and she visits New York with Bruce often. You’re so glad that the distance didn’t change your friendship. You know none of this would have been possible without her.

“Oh my god!!” Nat screamed as she saw your ring! She ran up and gave you the biggest hug, squeezing you so tight. “I can’t believe you guys are getting married!” She said as she hugged Bucky.

“Nat, none of this would have happened if you hadn’t pushed us to stop being stupid. So... will you be my maid of honor?” You ask. Nat jumped up and down screaming YES!

You look at Bucky as you get closer to him, and you can’t help but smile. God you loved this man. You can’t imagine what life would be like without him. You don’t even remember what it was like without him. As you finally make it to Bucky, your father shook his hand and gave you away.

After your vows were said, you finally heard the words you were waiting for, “You may kiss the bride”. Bucky pulled you to him and crashed him lips into yours. To say you were the happiest person in the world would be an understatement.

After a fun reception, you said goodbye to your family and friends and went up to the Honeymoon Suite of the hotel. You both had to be up early to catch your flight to Bora Bora, but you spent the entire night entwined in each other. Bucky showed you how much he loved you over and over.

Six months later you get another surprise. You’re pregnant! Bucky was beyond happy, and you both decided that it was time to start looking for a house and leave the city. You found the perfect home in the suburbs that was still close enough to the city for work and your friends.

“Bucky? Are you home?” You shout from the bathroom in your apartment. “Yeah baby, I am in the kitchen. You okay?” Bucky called as he walks toward the bathroom.

You take a deep breath and hand him the stick. He looks confused at first, but then a huge smile appears on his face. “You’re pregnant?” He asks in disbelief. You nod.

Bucky shouts with joy as he sweeps you off your feet and spins you around. You both are laughing as he stops and just hold you. “I can’t believe I’m going to be a daddy.” He says.

You smile. “I know! And I’m going to be a mommy!” Bucky kisses you softly. “Well, I think we need to move out of the city. I want my kids to have a big backyard with a pool and swing set.” Bucky says as he walks over to grab his laptop.

Shortly after the move you gave birth to your son, Matthew James Barnes. He was the spitting image of his father, and you hoped he would turn out just like him. After an easy birth, you and Bucky sit on your bed holding your son. Bucky continues to kiss you head and thanking you for his son.

You look up at Bucky with tears in your eyes. You think back to that terrible first year of knowing each other, and then the terrible drive to Seattle. You can’t help but laugh to yourself that all of that craziness led you to the best thing in your life. Your loving husband and son. You wouldn’t want it any other way.

If only I could undo

angst. mark lee x reader/hwang hyunjin x reader this was an angsty request. 👉👈 (I hope you like it! ♥) words; 2,102

Mark isn’t exactly sure when everything started to fall apart, he just knows that in the aftermath of everything, all he had left was to blame himself.

It happened slowly, to the point that he didn’t even realize how bad things have gotten.

It started off as small things, like not picking up your calls right away or him falling asleep without calling and wishing you goodnight. Things that he didn’t really notice, but of course, you did.

He remembers calling to tell you he will finally debut. He’s never felt more proud of himself than the moment you replied ‘of course you are. I’ve always believed in you.’ it felt almost as good as hearing you tell him that you loved him for the first time.

2015

‘Mark?’ you both were sitting outside, watching the sun slowly set together. His head was in y/n’s lap, his safe place. It being summer, the air was also finally starting to cool and you both greatly welcomed it. ‘Yeah, babe?’ he stares up, his fluffy black hair bouncing slightly. ‘I’ll miss you so much when you go back to Korea..’ he hears timidly. he sees you try and turn your head, not wanting him to see you upset. ‘Yeah?’ Mark sits up and pulls your head into his chest. ‘Cause I have no idea how I’m going to go through being away from you. The thought of coming back here to you is what makes it all worth it’ he kisses the crown of your head softly. He can tell that you are crying in his arms, little shakes trembling through your body. He just holds you tighter. ‘I feel so selfish, Mark.. I just love you so much.’ you sniffle ‘and fuck, I’m so proud of you. So proud.’ he wants nothing more to tell you that he’ll be home in no time, but he knows he can’t promise you that. It would be a lie. ‘I love you too, angel. It might be a while, but I promise to get you a ticket there as soon as I’m allowed. Plus, we have skype and everything.’ you look up at him, your eyes teary. ‘We’ll get through this, y/n.’ he notices that you look calmer now. ‘Promise?’ he sees uncertainty in your eyes. ‘I promise’ you both stare longingly at each other, meeting in a soft kiss, a kiss, and also a promise.

How did you guys go from that… to this? Again, Mark feels his chest ache with guilt and regret.

2017

You’d been calling him during practice the entire day and he kept telling himself he would just talk to you later. His later became two days later when you sent him messages in worry, needing to know he was safe and okay. After practicing their new choreo and endlessly training, he just felt himself snap, he just desperately wished it wasn’t at you. He grabs his phone in irritation ‘Mark, are things ok-’ he cuts you off ‘fuck, y/n! Seriously? I told you I’d call when I could.’ he blurts without too much care, even the other members stare at him in shock. He hears you breathing on the other end unevenly ‘I uhm.. Just.. wanted to make sure you were okay, it’s been a couple of days, Mark..’ he sighs in response ‘well, I’m fine. Just working 24/7 and attempting to sleep when I’m not’ the other line goes quiet for a moment ‘please take care of yourself, Mark. I’m worried about you’ suddenly Mark starts to feel bad for his absolutely unwarranted outburst ‘look, y/n, I’m sorry, I really am. It’s just been so intense lately. I promise I’ll make it up to you, though. Skype date tomorrow?’ he says softly and carefully ‘..can I pick the movie? Since you were a jerk’ he chuckles ‘of course, angel. Get some rest. Don’t forget our date.’ he hangs up.

Mark forgets all about the date

2018

It was the first time you both have seen each other since Mark moved, and he god, he had missed you. He was doing everything he could to make this trip special for you, even if he had to do it discreetly. He’d taken you to cafes in small parts of town and walks along the river albeit at three am when no one else was around. On the second day, Mark took you to meet his members, officially and not over skype/phone and it felt like having his family together, with you there in his new home, meeting his new friends. It was the fourth day of the trip when things started going sour. The group had to attend an event at a club. The members got dressed in expensive outfits and all styled their hair. Mark had to regretfully tell you that you weren’t able to go, with it being a ‘celebrity’ event. He could see the hurt on your face even if you were smiling. Moments like these, he hated being ‘famous’. He promised to come by your hotel after and order in some food and spend time together. Parting ways, Mark kissed you sweetly but rushed. ‘It shouldn’t be too long.’ Mark didn’t know that the same night he would be photographed dancing with another idol. It was for publicity but it honestly didn’t matter at this point.

He never made it to the hotel that night.

2019

The group has been getting so much recognition and attention and it finally felt like his dreams were starting to pay off. They’d been performing at award shows and actually getting nominated for those same shows. He hasn’t seen you since you visited last year and he won’t lie and say that it’s been easy. It feels like your entire relationship at this point is missed calls and unread messages along with promises that were rarely kept. No matter how long you both went without talking, though, you’d still find your way back to each other. The love was still there, the issue was that longing and hurt were there also. The group is going overseas to tour and he knows he will be even busier now. He knows you have college classes now as well, making time even more sparse.

Mark checks his phone for a bit before they board the plane.

y/n <3

You can do this, baby. Stay safe and make sure to eat!

He smiles. He truly feels undeserving of you.

He replies

Thank you, angel. I will, I promise. We’ll be together again soon, I have a feeling.

That same summer, Mark had a dating scandal with a makeup artist of theirs. It was just a simple kiss between two people who had no intentions other than to distract the other, but of course, there was photo proof of his mistake. before this, he truly felt untouchable. He promised endlessly that it meant nothing and it would never happen again.

Again, he was wrong.

now

All of Marks biggest regrets all lead to the same thing, wishing he fought for you. Wishing that he never let you go or let the fame get into his head. It’s been five months without you and two months since he found out you were dating again.

flashback

It turns out, that in the two short visits that you were there, you had met a friend. This friend just happened to be another idol, but of course, you didn’t know that. You were new to all of this.

The night after you saw photos of Mark and another idol dancing on each other, you sat by the Han river and listened to music, trying to distract your thoughts.

Apparently Hyunjin was there that night as well. You had confided in the stranger that night, and he did as well. It felt like two lost people finding comfort in knowing they weren’t completely alone. Hyunjin didn’t even disclose to you that he was an idol until you had to fly back home. Once he told you, you should have seen him differently, but you didn’t. You couldn’t. He never made you feel different or like you were on a different level. He always made time to talk and your feelings and emotions were never pushed to the side. You had tried telling Mark about your new friend, but he would just cut you off or end up having to end the call early. It really hurt. Mark only noticed when one day when you spoke about how cool you thought the latest stray kids comeback was. Instead of encouraging this friendship, Mark got irrationally jealous and accused you of chasing fame. Accusations flew out of his mouth before he even had time to think about what he was doing.

He knows he was wrong, but the anger and misplaced betrayal clouded his rationality.

About a month after this fight and that month being spent mostly alone or just fighting, you’d told him you had enough and as much as you loved him, you were so tired of being the only fighting for them. Again, instead of listening, he said he didn’t need you, that you just held him back. That same night, he lost you.

Now

Mark never thought he’d be in a position where he’d have to get over you, but here he is. Like the coward he was, he didn’t even reach out to you after you two broke up. It wasn’t until he saw a photo of you and your ‘friend’ Hyunjin holding hands, that he realized how badly he fucked up. Apparently even Hyunjins company supported you two being together. He’d see Hyunjin spend all of his free time with you and it looked like the members adored you (in photos, at least) their sweet noona.

Mark has been seeing photos of you both around Seoul and each photo tore his heart out, even if he didn’t even deserve to that this way.

Mark spends the last month trying to force himself to avoid social media. Seeing you two together just hurt too much.

The past several months have been filled with nothing but regret, and he’d been wallowing in self-guilt for too long. He decides to get a snack and head to the park, try and clear his thoughts. They were about to have a comeback, after all.

Making it to the park, Mark feels like he can finally breathe. The members weren’t constantly asking if he was okay or giving him worried glances. The silence is so welcoming, the sun is slowly starting to set as well, the sky a pink and grey color. Mark closes his eyes for a moment

‘Kkami, catch!’ Mark stiffens. He knows that voice. He loves that voice. He hears your giggle along with a small dog barking. He has to make sure. Mark turns around and see’s you slightly far away with a dog leash, smiling so brightly. You look… different. You grew your hair out, your cheeks finally have some pinch to them again. y/n is absolutely glowing. He can’t find it in himself to look away and somehow you don’t notice his presence, which hurts.

‘I’m back!’ he hears another voice.

Oh.

He can’t turn away, he needs to see this, he needs to try and let go, you deserve at least that.

Soon your new boyfriend makes it up to you with a scarf which you accept shyly. In response, Hyunjin gently grabs your hip and cups your cheek. Marks heart feels non existent right now. Shattered.

The next moment, you both meet each others lips gently and he can tell you are smiling into the kiss.

A few tears make their way down Marks red cheeks. He gets up from his bench, sparing one last look towards you. In some act of fate, you meet his eyes. You look shocked, confused. It’s the look that tells him everything he needs to know. that glimmer of hope he had has faded. He knows he will regret this for many years to come, never forgetting you.

I guess we’re really over, huh? He walks solemnly back to his dorm.

Hi! Hope you are doing well and staying safe 🌟I'm sorry if I'm bothering you 🙈, but I'm not sure if my ask was sent or not. I'm looking for kdrama recc? Friends (especially childhood) to lovers, mutual pining or fake relationship turning real? I am a sucker for tropes, what can a girl say.. Also WYEL killed me, I honestly didn't expect them to both live let alone kiss (thank you shows for teaching us that LGBT folks have to die in order for it to be realistic -.-) Thank you so so much 💕

You’re never bothering me anon, I love rec asks! (I just fell behind on asks last week cause of work :P)

K-dramas Featuring Childhood Friends - Turned Lovers (mutual pining a plus)

Come and Hug Me: Two childhood friends share an immense trauma of her family being murdered by his father. Yes, I said that properly. They meet later in life and help one another heal while being tormented by their pasts. You will cry, many times.

Just Between Lovers: They weren’t exactly friends but they share the same childhood trauma from being trapped in a collapsed building. Kang Doo is super good at the pining and angst in this due to his stubborn nature of wanted to protect people from getting close to him (if you’re not in love with Junho after this drama...)

Where Your Eyes Linger: You all know I’m in love with this BL drama about two boys, a chaebol and his hired bodyguard living together and trying not to fall in love. Hint: that’s impossible! Peak Angst and Pining.

Fight My Way: An adorable rom com about four friends who have grown up together and live in the same apartment building. It’s funny and sweet, and the chemistry is great! They do flashbacks of their childhood at the end of almost every episode.

When the Weather is Fine: This slow paced romance that takes place in a small town and features extremely beautiful leads (Seo Kang Joon and Park Young Min). It has a ton of angst and pining because he’s loved her for basically EVER and the show seems to lean heavily on k-drama tropes that make for peak angst. This show won’t be for everyone due to the pacing, but the couple is super soft and lovely.

The Smile Has Left Your Eyes: A psychological thriller about a cop, his sister, and a guy that keeps popping up in their lives. There is a ton of angst and pining paired with childhood trauma and family secrets. This is one of my favorite dramas ever, but it’s a stressful one so be kind to your heart!

You Drive Me Crazy: A drama special about two friends live together while one is getting her apartment renovated. While not perfect, I really enjoyed the chemistry and pining - plus it’s short :)

Weightlifting Fairy Bok Joo: A coming of age rom com about a sporty girl training on the weightlifting team. It’s got great best friends, and her romance is with her childhood friend (who has grown into quite the hottie). It’s light and fluffy.

Healer doesn’t have mutual pining but it does have a childhood backstory that links the two leads. Honestly that backstory may have been a bit unnecessary IMO but the couple is amazing and the angst comes from him not allowing people into his life.

She Was Pretty: Everyone knows that I don’t like this drama (at all) but it does lean heavy on the friends to lovers. Her childhood best friend ends up being her boss and the romance starts from there. Some people LOVE this drama so maybe don’t take it from me?

Pinocchio: There is a really long k-drama childhood origin reason why the two leads become acquaintances, but they go to high school together and later become reporters in training. I made this sound really dry it’s actually good!

Kill Me Heal Me: A very polarizing drama about a man who has DID (dissociative identity disorder) and the “doctor” who is hired to live with him and hide his illness from his chaebol family. There’s a lot of amnesia and childhood flashbacks (A LOT.) It has a lot of pining and angst for sure and the childhood trauma trope is huge.

A Few Fake Dating-to-lovers K-Dramas as the cherry on top

Coffee Prince: This classic is a must watch about a girl who pretends to be a boy to get ahead in life. She gets a job at a coffee shop and the owner finds himself falling in love (and freaking out!). Peak Angst and Pining.

The Secret Life Of My Secretary: This rom com about a secretary who helps her boss conceal his facial recognition disorder is the perfect example of two adorable dummies in love. The pining is great, the angst is top notch and the leading lady (played by Jin Ki Joo) is so much fun to watch!

Because This Is My First Life: A slice of life centered around a girl who marries her landlord so that she can live in his house. This is one of my favorite dramas, but I do not like the lead dude since he’s a real life creep so I always mention that when I recommend it.

Fated to Love you is on my watchlist and apparently has fake dating or contract dating but I have’t gotten to it yet! Seems like it’s full of classic tropes though!

heal me. | prologue

disclaimer: this series is a work of fiction. any businesses, events or incidents are products of my wide imagination. all of the character’s personality does not reflect and has nothing to do in real life.

warnings: smut, angst, usage of strong language, mild violence, mentions of death, alcohol & drugs, cheating issues and lots of flashbacks (read each chapter carefully)

pairings: jung jaehyun x reader

a/n: this chapter is a prologue. a flashback is included. next update’s timeline is present. please, always start reading at prologue! ;) HEAL ME is the first installation of Ego Series.

CHAPTER I »

“Tell that man to change this. His ideas are trash.”

You pushed the stacked papers back to your secretary’s hands, she nodded and left your office. Your eyes immediately rolled out of annoyance.

“Those eyes of yours couldn’t really find any habit except rolling them, eh?”

Johnny Seo. Sitting pretty at the grey sofa in front of you, sipping on his hot coffee and reading a newspaper.

“Plus, If I were Jaehyun, I’d absolutely cancel this project if you will keep on giving that attitude towards me.”

“Be your cousin then. So I don’t have to see his cheater ass,” You massaged the bridge of your nose.

You heaved an annoyed sigh and continued signing some papers for the construction of Neocity Incorporation’s 33rd branch. Or that is what Johnny told you before.

“Oh, feisty,” He chuckled. “Just so you know, Y/N, you sound and act so bitter. May I remind you that it has been exactly two years ago since the two of you— broke up.”

Johnny walked towards your desk and placed his hands on top of it, then leaned. “Thanks for the coffee, babe. As much as I want to stay, I have to catch up something.”

He winked at you and clicked his tongue. Johnny often calls you ‘babe’, or rather, to everyone. So it’s not much of a big deal to you.

The following days was so quiet, which you find odd, honestly. It’s like something is coming and you have no idea how to stop it. Jaehyun also kept sending you new plans for the building construction.

After his sixth email, you approved it. You also agreed to his email regarding a further meeting to their office.

“Act professional, Y/N. Don’t let yourself slip.” You remind yourself while fixing your black silk dress that ended just above your knees. You also let your long brown wavy hair down and added a minimal make-up.

Neocity Inc.’s main office is the highest among all of its branches. It has 25 floors and each is for a particular field to their business. The ambiance inside and outside never failed to amaze your eyes even when you went there numerous times already.

They changed the color accents. You thought to yourself before entering the elevator.

You hear the elevator’s faint “ding!” that you’re on the 25th floor already. A blonde lady from the reception desk stood up and gave you a warm smile.

“Good morning, Miss Y/N! You just arrived on time.”

She then led you to the conference room. The whole floor is so quiet, only the loud clicking of your high heels to the marble tiles can be heard. The place seemed to be different from your last visit. They had white walls before, but now, they changed it to glass panes.

“Please wait here for a second.” She entered the room then went back outside afterwards.

“Mr. Jung will be seeing you now.”

You gave her a small smile then pushed the long vertical steel handle. You were a bit surprised to see Jaehyun alone inside. He was sitting at the other side of the wide frosted glass table. You sat at the other end and placed the folders you brought on the table.

“Good morning, Y/N.”

“Likewise, Mr. Jung.”

“I heard from John-”

“Cut the chase. Business please.”

Jaehyun heaved a deep sigh. You weren’t cold at him like this before.

Things wasn’t like this.

“Just tell me the truth, Jaehyun! Please?” You shouted. Vases, picture frames, and other stuff in the living room are either scattered or shattered.

“Did you fucking cheat on me, or not?”

You need answers. Answers that will complete to your dying questions.

“I-I...” He ran his fingers to his brown fluffy hair. “Fuck, baby. I don’t know.”

The room fell into the oblivion of tranquility. Jaehyun stared at you with tired and bloodshot eyes. His white dress polo is wrinkled, three buttons are left unbuttoned.

“How.. can you do this to me? How did your guts take this shit? I healed you when you were broken! When you felt the world was against you.”

“But I didn’t know you could also be the reason for me to break myself.”

You felt your heavy heart sank. Remembering the photo of him, smiling so widely and his hand, resting on a girl’s thigh. You thought he wouldn’t do that.

I didn’t think he’s capable of doing that.

“Her name is Chaewon, right?” You sat beside him. Jaehyun locked gazes with you, fresh hot tears are starting to form again in your eyes.

“Baby, please,” He pleaded. “I don’t know her. I can’t remember shit from that night.”

You gave him a faint smile.

Jaehyun Jung has been the best man for you. Or at least, to everyone. He’s handsome, kind, sexy, and ruthless. Perfect, to be honest. But on top of all that, you know he won’t cheat. Even if girls flock in front of him. He’s a loyal man after all.

But when you saw the photo, the loyal and perfect Jaehyun you once knew became nothing but a cheater. You wiped your tears and went back to the room you and Jaehyun shared. Memories started to flash in your mind.

“Look at those city lights,” He hugged you tight from the back, making you giggle. “They shine but you shine brighter.”

He slowly swayed your body, following the rhythm of the music of his favorite band playing in the room.

Cigarettes After Sex.

You held his arms that are warpped around your waist. “I didn’t know you’re this cheesy enough, Jaehyun Jung.”

He let out a sexy chucke to your left ear and rested his chin to your shoulder. “Hmm? I’m always cheesy when it comes to you,” He whispered. “I love you, my future Y/N Jung. Don’t leave me, alright?”

“I won’t, Jae. And that’s a promise I’ll never break.”

He created circles from your stomach to your breasts, making you slightly moan. He then pushed you to the glass window and crashed his lips to yours. Hungrily. Jaehyun turned his head to the side and capture your lips. He smirked.

You painfully smiled at the scene you recalled then grabbed your duffel bag. Jaehyun immediately stood up when he saw you carrying your bag.

“Y/N, baby, I’m sorry. P-please don’t leave me.”

“Jaehyun, stop it.”

“You promised me you won’t leave me,” Tears started falling from his eyes as he shakingly held both of your cold hands. “You promised!”

You shook your head no. It wasn’t a promise at all.

“Promises are meant to be broken, Jae.”

I’m in Love with an Angel (Lucifer Morningstar x Reader) One-shot

Summary: You’ve been roaming the world since the ancient times in the Eastern world. Your kind was hunted so in order to survive you hid yourself amongst humans. When you were in danger, Lucifer saved you, that’s how he knows what you are. However, he never showed you his devil-face before, this time though is different.

Word count: 3074

Warnings: angst, fluff, alcohol, song-fic

Los Angeles became your new home after moving again. You never thought that you would want to stay in one place for more than a few years. You were afraid of growing attached to others, maybe even fall in love again. After all, you were a fox spirit, a kitsune or as your old home called your kind: huli jing. For thousands of years you roamed the world, aware of never growing old compared to the humans. You were quite jealous of them to be honest. They got to find their partner, have kids and watch them grow up, they got to grow old with their partner and have friends.

I'm in love with an angel, heaven forbid Made me a believer with the touch of her skin

I'd go to hell and back with you Stay lost in what we found Worlds apart we were the same Until we hit the ground

Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm weak Maybe I'm blinded by what I see You wanted a soldier but it wasn't me 'Cause I could never set you free

So fly on your own It's time I let you go, go Go!

You tried to hide how lonely you were but those who were around you and started to like you could see it easily. Ella for example. She was kind and bubbly and gosh, always tried to set you up with someone. However, you were suspicious that today was a different case.

“So the victim was killed before their head was cut off which means, it was-“

“Not just a message to Mr. Del Pozo but it wasn’t torture like there was a reason which both Del Pozo and the killer knew” Chloe finished the sentence. You still had no idea why you had to be there because you were on Vice, not on Homicide. But you were ninety percent sure that it had to do something with Ella and her fantastic ideas.

“Alright, who could’ve wanted to send this message and why?” Dan asked curious.

“Maybe because it was one of Del Pozo’s man? A neighbor said that he saw them talk in front of Del Pozo’s house a few times” you asked turning Chloe’s attention to you. Her eyes were looking at you sharply like she wanted to pierce you through with something pointy. You kind of felt the same way right now to be honest. A few days ago you found Lucifer looking and smelling like hell, all shit-faced with a bottle of Jack Daniel’s in his hand. You had no idea why he looked so broken but it quickly turned out that his partner was the reason just like many times before.

Flashback ~

You were totally pissed because you had to give your almost finished case to Chloe as the guy was killed before you got to him. You seethed in anger and tried not to hit the panel of the elevator as it rode up to Lucifer’s penthouse. He was the first person who made you show your true form to him and you believed him to the Devil even though he never showed you his Devil-face.

“Lucifer, do you have something strong that will knock me out like- What the actual fuck?! Lucifer, are you alright?!” you hurried over to him as the Devil was sprayed out on the floor like a starfish wearing pajamas (cashmere pajamas). Only one of his feet were in his slippers, the other slipper was on the counter as he stared up at the ceiling. You knelt down next to him and leaned over him to look him in the eyes. “Lucifer?”

“She hates everything that I am…” he mumbled as he turned on his side toward you and curled into a fetal position. You hesitantly lifted a hand and combed the stray strands out of his handsome face.

“Did she see you? Did you show her?” you asked quietly as you petted his soft brown curls. His hair was so soft gosh… your heart jumped in your chest and you had to stop yourself from pulling away abruptly. “Lucifer, what happened?”

“She saw me and then she ran away and now… now she’s terrified of me! Even tried to… to send me back to Hell…” Lucifer groaned.

“Lucifer, she’s human, of course, your other side would terrify her. Even I freaked out Linda when I showed my true form to her! Compared to you I only have fluffy tails and ears, that’s not that scary!” you gestured around in the air. You hoped that maybe you could make the atmosphere lighter somehow. However, Lucifer just groaned making you look at him in sympathy and pity. He was clearly so in love with Chloe and vica versa, because you’ve never seen Chloe be so happy before those few days they had something going on. “But if someone truly loves the other, then they will come back. She just needs some time to process everything.”

“You haven’t seen my face, (Name), you have no idea what she’s terrified of” the Devil replied as he sat up on the marble floor.

I'm in love with an angel who's afraid of the light Her halo is broken but there's fight in her eyes

Walls are built to keep us safe Until they're crashing down Worlds apart we were the same Until you hit the ground

Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm weak Maybe I'm blinded by what I see You wanted a soldier but it wasn't me 'Cause I could never set you free

So fly on your own It's time I let you go, go

Go!

“Then show me, Lucifer and I will know” you smiled at him gently with a nod as you cupped his face in your hands. He needed a friend and you promised that you will be there for him if he needs you. Especially after he stopped hunters to kill you. Under your hands you could feel his skin harden and you watched as his face turned red and edgy, cheek bones and eyebrows protruding, red eyes blazing into your skull. It was scary as all hell but he was the same Lucifer you loved, the same devil who saved you, protected you and have been your friend for years now.

You could tell his surprise at the missing fear in your eyes, your hands remaining on his cheeks. You never pulled away, never backed out, never rejected him.

“You know… you would be the kids’ favorite during Halloween” you chuckled as you took every nook and cranny, every little detail.

“You don’t… think I-“

“I see the man who saved me, I see the same man who has been my friend and who never let me down, who always came to rescue me” you shook your head. “You’re important to me no matter how you look like Lucifer, understand?”

The Devil just nodded with a small, happy smile playing on his lips at your words as his more human-ly face came back. The whole night, you spent on his side, helping him into bed and putting away any alcoholic beverages. As you watched him sleep soundly after you managed to get him out of the shower which was both embarrassing and slippery, you smiled sadly at him. You were aware of their bond, that Chloe was his supposed soulmate, that they were meant for each other. Though you wished that it would be you, that it would be you who had a soulmate. You gently kissed his temple and wished him a good night before you left to go home and get in bed too.

End of flashback ~

“Ella, why is Strong here in the first place?” Chloe turned to Ella who looked back and forth between you two. You turned to her too with a curious expression.

“Argh! This argument and bitchy atmosphere is rotting the air in the precinct around you guys! I wanted you two to make up! You were getting along so well!” she whined before looking at Dan for help but he was out the door by then. You face-palmed exasperatedly, tired of everyone trying to make you and Chloe friends again.

“Ella, it is nice that you tried but we don’t have to interfere with each other” you motioned between you and Chloe. “We work in completely different departments. Plus we’re adults, no need to gather us around like kindergarteners.”

“This time I have to agree with Strong” Chloe nodded before she stood up and left the room. You dropped your pen on your notebook and sighed heavily. Ever since she noticed that Lucifer’s attention shifted to you too, she made your work harder and acted bitchy sometimes. Not always though.

“Okay, you have to tell me what’s going on” Ella pulled a chair out and sat down.

“Nothing’s going on” you groaned. “Chloe just realized that this time, pushing Lucifer away will make him turn his attention to someone else. Which I’m not as happy as everyone – Chloe included – thinks so. He’s been super awkward around me. I want my friend back, Ella.”

“Oh, Lucifer is like that. He’s gonna try to woo you until Chloe gets too pissed off and-“

“Yeah, I get that… I’m a replacement” you grabbed your things quickly standing up as fast as you could. “But it’s getting on my nerves lately so tell Lucifer if you see him that I’m gonna scare all of the girls away from LUX if he won’t stop with all the gifts.”

You marched out of the conference room and went back to your desk. Work filled your every minute these days as the new captain kept giving newer and newer cases. You barely got a drug baron behind bars, a new one took its place. You sighed heavily as you worked away on your computer and tried to avoid thinking about how much your chest was hurting when you admitted that you were just a replacement to Lucifer.

Walls are built to keep us safe Until they're crashing down Worlds apart we were the same Until you hit the ground

Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm weak Maybe I'm blinded by what I see You wanted a soldier but it wasn't me 'Cause I could never set you free

So fly on your own It's time I let you go

So fly on your own It's time I let you go, go

Go!

Suddenly Maze appeared with a man and gave the man over to one of the officers. She looked around and spotted you, her lips pulling up in a smile making you dread the next half-an-hour. You groaned when she messed up your organized stack of papers by putting them on the new cases.

“Maze, you can bother me, you know that but could you please not mess up my work?” you whined as you started sorting the papers again.

“Lucifer can’t shut up about you, Strong” the demon pointed at you with a mischievous smirk on her face. “Have you shown him something nice?”

Even though her gaze fluttered your ego and helped your self-esteem, you still had to say no to that. She kept suggesting that you and Lucifer should sleep together even when it was obvious as an elephant in the middle of a playground that Lucifer and Chloe had something going on. You crossed your arms in front of your chest as you leaned back with furrowed eyebrows.

“Everyone else assumes that I’m sleeping with said Devil but nope.” you replied. “What are you here for anyway?”

“Just brought in a wanted criminal and right now I have nothing to do so… don’t you want to I don’t know… hang out?” Maze asked wiggling her eyebrows making you chuckle.

“Only if we won’t end up in a questionable place with a questionable person” you sighed with a small smile on your lips but you were already standing up from your desk. Now that Chloe took another case from you as criminals and shady people ended up dead more times than you could bring them in alive, you had nothing to do right now. Not in the precinct anyway.

The last few days you avoided Lucifer at all cost. To be honest, you weren’t sure if his attention turning to you and wooing you was a good thing. You knew that it was just a temporary situation while he found his way back to Chloe. You knew that once he was accepted again by Decker, he would forget about you in less than a second and so you wanted to keep yourself from falling for Lucifer. For thousands of years you avoided falling in love not because you didn’t want to but you had no choice. Humans had a certain life-span while you would never age as you were a spirit, a mythologic creature, some even said a demon but the real demon was sitting next to you on the passenger seat.

Maze told you to go to LUX because she wanted to grab her knife so you were parking in front of LUX. You sighed as you waited for Maze to come back when she texted you. You furrowed your eyebrows but jumped out of the car and ran inside after reading the message: LUCIFER NEEDS HELP! NOW!

You kept pushing on the elevator button and waited in the elevator impatiently. Your muscles tensed when the doors opened and you jumped out just to see Lucifer sitting by the piano, candles lit all around the living room.

“Hello, (Name)” he perked up when he spotted you.

“I should’ve expected all this” you sighed heavily as you held your forehead. You wanted to run out the way you came, your body tensing as you watched Lucifer approach you. He was ravishing in that suit, his brown eyes looked deep into your (e/c). Your heart wanted to break in two, knowing that all this was for Chloe. Maybe not today but soon. Because you’re just a replacement, a momentary comfort. “L-Lucifer…” you whispered and he must’ve seen your pained expression when he stopped dead in his tracks.

“Everything alright? Are you hurt? What is wrong, darling?” he leaned down concern lacing his deep voice as his large hands grabbed your shoulders.

“Why?” you averted your gaze. “Why are you trying so hard? When this is not real… when this all is meant for Chloe?” You felt your face heat up as you tried to stop your heart from thumping so loudly in your chest. Other women in your place would be jumping in Lucifer’s neck trying to bind him to themselves but you were different. You roamed the world for many years besides… you definitely was not someone who was worthy of his attention or affection.

“How the bloody hell would it not be real?! What more do I have to do to make you see that I want you?!” he pulled away angrily. Your eyes widened in surprise, your head snapping up to watch him take a few steps back and turn around. Your heart was thumping even faster and harder against your ribcage but in pure hope. It was like someone lit a candle in your chest and now it was burning like a furnace. “I’ve been trying to tell you- tell you that I- that I- ARGH!”

“Lucifer…”

“You reject me just like the detective because of what I am, right? You can’t bear to look at me, to stay in my presence, can you?!” he exclaimed, his voice was broken as he looked back at you with tears gathered in his eyes. You vigorously shook your head as tears rolled down your face and you approached him with trembling hands.

“I can’t accept all this because… because I’m so afraid that one day you will go back to Chloe just like every time before” you cupped his face in your trembling hands trying to blink the tears away. “I’m afraid to accept this because I’m afraid that you will leave me for her… because she’s your soulmate while I’m… I’m just a wandering spirit.”

“(Name)” Lucifer breathed as he pulled you to his chest. You stood there frozen in his embrace with your face pressed against his suit jacket. “I let her go… I realized that she just can’t accept me for who I am. She betrayed me by considering to send me back to Hell. You, (Name), you were the only one who was always by my side, been the shoulder for me to lean on, given me an embrace when I needed one. Her heart was always closed for me and I had to pry it open but you… you let me in without a second thought, without a doubt.”

“That’s who I am, Lucifer… no one should ask for permission to be someone’s friend” you replied snaking your arms around his waist.

“I know…” you could hear the smile in his voice.

“By the way… what makes you sure that you can just ‘let her go’? After all, she exists… for you” you whispered but didn’t dare pull away from him.

“I’m not vulnerable around her anymore” he replied as he pulled away from you a little to look into your eyes. Amenadiel’s theory was that angels were allowed to choose their paths, make their own choices and if they lost their powers or wings it was all of their own doing. He told you that Lucifer being vulnerable around Chloe was Lucifer’s own choice. If he wasn’t vulnerable around her anymore… then it meant that he really… didn’t…

“Oh” you mumbled a little bit shocked. Though you had no time to say anything else as his lips met yours. Your breath hitched in your throat at the kiss. You haven’t felt like this ever since… Your heart thumped in your chest as you kissed him back, your hand sliding up to the back of his neck while the other curled into his shirt.

You felt so warm in his arms but it felt natural like you belonged there yet it was a foreign sensation. You’ve never felt so loved, so warm, so accepted before not even in his arms five hundred years ago. Not even in the first and you thought last love in your life could hold you like this. It felt so good because Lucifer really, utterly wanted you. Only you.

End ~
