For the first time ever, Luigi was afraid to return home. Not because of any particular danger, like traps or ghosts or monsters. In fact, he was excited to sleep in his own bed again, with his worn blankets that felt like comfort.
It was his brother he was afraid of.
He'd been staying at Bowser's just to avoid confronting Mario, sleeping in a spare bedroom that was far too big. Sometimes Junior would run to his room after having a nightmare, and Luigi would cuddle with him to keep away the bad thoughts. And of course, he loved the kid. He loved everyone in that castle. But he missed his brother.
The past few times Luigi had seen him, Peach was always there, keeping the peace between Mario and Bowser. They laughed as a group, ate food together, and played games. But the air was still tense, thick with all the unspoken words between the two brothers. Luigi couldn't stand it. He had to do something.
The time between Luigi's knock and the door opening felt like eternity. He couldn't keep his hands from shaking as he tapped them against his leg, trying to take deep breaths. Peach said he had nothing to worry about, but this was one thing he couldn't risk losing. Not his brother, his best friend.
"Who is it?"
"It's, uh, Luigi. Sono a casa."
The door swung open, and there was Mario. They both just stared at each other. Nothing had changed—well, almost nothing—and yet, they both had nothing to say.
So, Mario swept Luigi into a crushing embrace instead.
"Bro! Please, come in. I shouldn't have to invite you into your own home!" Mario sat Luigi down at their dining table, before bustling off to brew then some coffee. "What's kept you away for so long, eh?"
Luigi fidgeted nervously in his seat. "I thought you were mad at me," he mumbled, grateful for the warmth as Mario slid a mug of steaming coffee into his hands.
"Me? At my fratellino? I could never!"
"Then...why have you been avoiding me whenever we see each other?"
"Well, I thought you were mad at me."
"W-what?"
Mario took a sip of his coffee. "You haven't come home in so long. You don't meet my eyes anymore. I thought I did something wrong..."
"So, you aren't mad at me for being with Bowser?"
Mario laughed good-naturedly. "I was a bit shocked at first, sure. But mad? I've seen the way you look at each other. I could never fault you for that! Plus, if I did, I'd be a hypocrite."
Luigi couldn't help but laugh as well, the tightness that had been living in his chest finally loosening. "So you're okay with me and Bowser?"
"Of course bro! He makes you happy, and that makes me happy." He nudged his arm in Luigi's direction. "Hey, you should have him over sometime. We always meet at his castle, or Peach's. We'd need to get him a bigger chair, maybe even a bigger doorway, but we can make it work."
Luigi felt the tears dripping down his cheeks before he even processed he was crying. Mario jumped up from his chair. "Mi dispiace bro, did I say something? I didn't mean to—"
But the tears falling from Luigi's eyes weren't those of sadness. "Thank you, bro," he whispered. "Thank you for understanding. Ti voglio bene."
Mario smiled, pulling Luigi into another hug, one he hadn't realized he'd needed so much. "Of course. I love you too, bro."

crawls out of the void,,, here u go bowuigi enjoyers
tongues and teeth // bowser x luigi
word count 2244 // ao3 link
summary: “Ah, rigatoni… I’m sorry–” “It’s fine.” “...Oh. Eh… has no one ever called your singing beautiful before?” “...Not in so many words.” (or, luigi is afraid of a lot of things, but fire has never been one of them, much to his dismay.) [rated T: mario movie spoilers, hurt/comfort, torture, rough kissing but they dont kiss its just really gay ass dialogue]
He’d banged his head against the bars, jolting as the chains above him whirred away. …Great, just as I thought I could stop having a panic attack, Luigi thought wryly, hissing in pain and scrambling to his feet as he was lifted, his cage pulled up into the gaping maw of the ceiling. Below him, a few of the penguins(and of course that absolutely enlightening blue star, but Luigi had been trying to filter out its voice) squawked out protests or questions, and he bit his lip. Like I chose to be here! He wanted to yell. I never wanted to go in the sewers, I never wanted to get sucked in here, I never wanted to leave my brother! I just wanted to start a business, wanted to prove to my dad that I’m more than just a good student…
I just want to go home. 
“Here he is, your highness!” The wizard chirped, far too cheerfully, and Luigi let out a small, nervous laugh, giving his captor a small wave and trying not to instinctively rub the sore spot where a few of his mustache hairs had once been. 
Luigi could see the smoke curling in the air as it left Bowser’s nostrils. It was almost mesmerizing, the way he could see the barely-held-back fire, trapped in his maw, glowing and flickering in the dim light of the throne room. If he wasn’t terrified, he’d be curious. 
“Shoo, Kamek,” the King dismissed, and the wizard instantly scurried away, muttering a quick yes sir. And, suddenly, they were alone. 
Luigi’s heart was pounding in his chest. He couldn’t tear his eyes away from Bowser, letting out a quiet heh and pulling at the collar of his shirt nervously. For a moment, all his captor was doing was studying him, tracing his figure, as if imagining what it would be like to tear him apart, how his skeleton would look bare, skin burnt to a crisp. 
“Is… there a reason you brought me here, L-Lord Bowser?” He ventured tentatively, sweat beading from his forehead and dripping down his neck. 
The Koopa let out a huff that could have passed for amused. “Never had one of my prisoners call me ‘lord’ before,” he mused, and extended a hand. A glowing, shimmering star materialized in his palm, spinning at his will. It pulsed and thrummed, like a heartbeat loud enough to rival Luigi’s own, power radiating from it in waves. Bored, Bowser flicked it with a finger, sending it spinning across the room, before calling it back to his grasp. 
“Eh… what would you prefer?” Luigi asked, trying and failing to tear his gaze away and instead opting to awkwardly readjust his hat. “King? Majesty? Sovereign? Sir? Master?”
Bowser seemed to choke on something before clearing his throat. He closed his fist and the star flickered back to its place behind his throne. “Lord and King are fine, thank you,” he snarled, more embarrassed than hostile. Luigi took a sheepish step back. 
“You… bald ape people fascinate me,” he muttered, more for himself than Luigi. The human furrowed his eyebrows. “So small, so… smooth. Warm-blooded. It’s odd.” 
“We’re… uh, we’re called humans, sir,” Luigi attempted, voice small, but Bowser didn’t acknowledge him. “Majestic, even…” the Koopa was muttering, lost in his own thoughts. “Is there…”
He snapped back to attention and took a booming step forward. “You! Uhh…”
“Luigi,” He tried to state calmly, but it came out as more of a squeak. 
“Luigi. Yes.” Bowser clasped his hands together. Luigi tilted his head curiously. If he didn’t know better, he would have thought that the Koopa King was nervous. “I have a very important question for you.”
“Me?” Luigi almost whimpered, and his heart was racing. …Mamma mia, what have I gotten myself into?
“Well, duh. You’re the only one here,” Bowser muttered, still quiet, and Luigi stifled a yelp of fear at the reminder, taking another step back. He cleared his throat and, surprisingly, seemed to retreat into his shell a bit, eyes darting from his talons to the volcanic brick floor to Luigi and back again. “Let me… present a hypothetical situation. You look like her. If… if you were a powerful, strong, heart-stoppingly beautiful princess who led her subjects to great prosperity, would you fall in love with me?”
Luigi blinked. “What.”
“Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of Princess Peach!” Bowser snapped, casting his gaze skyward, as if a spotlight was trained on him as he went into a powerful, heartbreaking monologue, Romeo and Juliet style. “The most beautiful princess in all the land? Blue eyes, blond hair? Ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, which I’m about to raze to the ground as I ask for her hand in marriage?” There were stars in his eyes, somehow glimmering brighter than the one shining behind his throne. “She’s… she’s perfect. I’m going to rule the world by her side. We’ll destroy everything… together.” 
Luigi let out a small, nervous laugh. “I… eh, I don’t know if I can answer for the princess… I’ve never met her, and–”
“Let me rephrase,” Bowser snarled, and suddenly he was towering over Luigi’s cage, smoke curling from his open mouth, rumbling in a growl. He yelped and scrambled backward. “If you were Peach, would you fall in love with me?”
“Y–Yes!” Luigi blurted, terrified, and Bowser’s eyes widened. A genuine smile spread across his face. What the hell is wrong with this guy? 
“As I assumed!” The King clapped his hands, turning to hide his excitement. Luigi found he couldn’t tear his eyes away. “Thanks for your help–not that I needed it, or that you had a choice,” He quickly tacked on, shooting him a glare that somehow seemed forced. “I wasn’t nervous, by the way.”
Bowser waved a hand and the chains holding Luigi’s cage in place began to whir, sinking slowly back into the ground. Luigi kept his eyes trained on that shell, shining in the flickering firelight, and that tail that whisked back and forth happily until the throne room turned into a sliver of light and disappeared. He let out a sigh of relief, far too shaken to unpack any of the truth in his words. 
-
“If… ah, if you don’t mind me asking… what’s so special about this ‘Peach’?” Luigi ventured. He would have been terrified–hell, he still was, but he could breathe and his heart wasn’t threatening to beat out of his chest, so he counted that as a partial victory–if these… visits hadn’t become a regular occurrence. It was like clockwork; every night(or what he could only assume was night–the time his internal clock was begging him to sleep, but that wasn’t quite a reliable source) chains would start whirring and he’d be pulled back up to the throne room, face to face with King Bowser himself. If he wasn’t so put off, he’d be bored, but there was something about him that seemed to spark a flame in Luigi’s chest, as if preparing him to burn to a crisp. 
Bowser had a faraway look in his eyes that, for once, was marred with conflict. “She’s… she’s beautiful,” he murmured, and Luigi studied the sudden softness in his expression. “She has heart-shaped bangs, the voice of an angel, the strength of a thousand men, the…” He trailed off, cleared his throat. “What an absurd question. Now, tell me. If you were Peach, would you be entranced by this song?”
(He couldn’t answer for the princess, but Luigi was so drawn in by his bellowing, trembling voice, shaking with emotion, that he couldn’t do anything but nod, couldn’t tear his eyes away from those fangs, curved and sharpened to a knife’s point, couldn’t turn away no matter how much of a bad idea this was. He was a prisoner, after all, but he’d been beginning to wonder if it was to the Koopa King or his own, traitorous, fearful(aflame) heart.)
-
“Your voice is beautiful,” Luigi couldn’t help but murmur in the deafening silence that followed. Bowser let out a small huff, a tiny smile flickering on his face for a moment. 
“I don’t think anyone’s ever said that to me and meant it.”
Luigi turned, eyes wide with shock. He was sitting at the foot of the piano, and he could have ran. Should have ran. But there was nowhere to go, and what harm could one more song do? 
“...Really?”
Bowser shrugged, seemingly resigned, soft around the edges. “I mean, the only other person I’ve ever sung for this way is Kamek, and… well, you know. Brainwashed and everything.”
“Huh.” Luigi studied the king’s eyes and, for the first time, saw something that might have been sadness in them. 
(His irises were auburn, a gnarled tree caught aflame.)
“So you think Peach will like it?” He asked, soft voice betraying the hidden longing in his expression. 
“Mamma mia… I’d be surprised if she didn’t,” Luigi answered honestly, and something trembled in his chest.
-
Luigi yelped as a claw curled around his mustache, pulling playfully at the hairs. “Wha–yeowch–what are you doing?”
“Physical torture,” Bowser responded bluntly, before breaking off into a bellowing laugh. Fear and awe, in equal parts, boomed in his chest.
“Eh… I thought…”
“Wrong!” Bowser hummed, gleeful, and the malicious grin on his face widened as his claw moved from tugging at mustache hairs to tracing Luigi’s jawline past his ear to flick his hat. “You’re my prisoner. I’ll do as I please. What, did you forget? You’re entirely at my mercy.”
He should have been afraid. Was afraid. But…
That fire, glowing from behind Bowser’s barely parted grin. The way his eyes flashed, fiery amber. He was afraid of a lot of things, but flames… flames had never been one of them. No matter how much it hurt as they singed his fingers.
-
“Ah, rigatoni… I’m sorry–”
“It’s fine.”
“...Oh. Eh… has no one ever called your playing beautiful before?”
“...Not in so many words.”
-
He knew it was the beginning of the end when as his eyes were drooping, the chains didn’t clank and whir anymore, didn’t pull him up to what had somehow become his escape. He heard a faint whooping of joy above, the newly-captured Kongs and Toads sitting sullenly in their cages, some rattling their bars and others yelling at the floating, ever-cheerful turquoise star, and bit his lip.
What the hell had he been thinking? How had he let that fear, the only thing keeping him alive right now(and maybe not his brother, but–no, he couldn’t, wouldn’t think about that right now) morph into something entirely different, something he was afraid to put a name to? Why hadn’t he noticed? Why–
Oh, no… why did he miss his voice?
-
The wave of relief that surged through him as Mario swiped him out of midair with a cry, pulling him close into a tight hug, swearing to never let go, was almost enough to extinguish the fire.
Almost. 
But as Luigi’s eyes caught Bowser’s, as the ice shattered, as the volcano roared and the princess he’d heard so much about cried out, reaching out in vain as the bullet bill surged towards her castle, seemingly infinitesimal in the shadow of Bowser’s Castle, he felt a spark lick its way from his stomach up his spine, through his veins, and settle into a flickering flame in his chest.
It had been nothing compared to this; the searing metal trash can lid, the burns on his palms, stinging, and the metal was bending. The star thrummed behind him and Bowser’s panicked roar echoed in his ears, humming humming humming with the fire that licked just beside him, curling around his mustache in a way that had him seeing stars.
He wondered–was this what it was like to feel alive? To burn?
And then–
A white glow, searing behind his eyelids, but it was cold. Fast moving, like an icy, brittle moon orbiting its sun, and his skin was shimmering, tingling with a numbness that made him uneasy. Nonetheless, power flooded through his veins, beating with his heart, and he narrowed his eyes. 
Fear was a good look on Bowser. So was defeated, lying facedown in the dust. Luigi had a strange urge to reach down and smooth the tangles in his hair. Almost a shame, how pathetic he looked, rendered to nothingness and trapped in that jar.
-
(He dreamt of his voice, of full, booming piano tones and bursts of flame, of amber eyes.)
-
Luigi was jostled awake to the realization that he couldn’t breathe or move. His eyes widened and he stifled a yelp. His wrists were bound, behind his back and tied to a chair, and sweat beaded at his neck. The walls were flickering, and fear bloomed in his stomach. 
A rumbling laugh, far too familiar, echoed throughout… wherever he was, and he whimpered. Something stirred in his chest, and he gasped when he realized it was a spark. It was too late–the flame was already fueled. 
“You’re an amusing one,” Bowser growled, low and cocky as he lumbered forward. Oh, how Luigi wished that voice didn’t send a shiver down his spine, equal parts relief, yearning, and fear. A claw hooked under his neck, thumb playfully teasing his mustache before poking at his lower lip, mouth agape. Bowser licked his lips. “I think I’ll keep you.”

Luigi and the Beast Chapter 14
Hi!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ha. Somehow, I have returned. How long will I remain here??? Hard to say honestly, this might be the last chapter I ever post of this fic, if I can't find motivation to finish it. But this chapter was like... 95% done, and someone commented on a few chapters of L&TB and I was like... hey why don't I at least finish the last chapter I have written, huh?? So, I did. And I posted immediately so I didn't forget, or run out of energy/desire to post later.
Anyway, it's late, and I want to start rereading this fic to see if I can figure out where to go from here, so I'll leave y'all with this. The fabled chapter 14 of L&TB. Warning, it's short (for me), about 3-4k words, since it's just an interlude from Mario. But... it's something at least? I do have part of a potential chapter 15 written, we'll see if I can finish it or not.
You can find the chapter here
Summary:
Luigi is a simple man who lives a simple life. Every day is the same as the last, with nothing ever happening that changes the status quo. While some may think his life is boring, Luigi enjoys it well enough, relishing in the simple monotony, not needing endless adventure and excitement to make his life have meaning.
Unfortunately, everything changes when he gets the news that his beloved brother, Mario, has been kidnapped by a fearsome beast in a far off kingdom that he’s never heard of before. To make matters worse, in his endeavor to save his brother, he ends up making a deal with the beast where he has to stay as a prisoner in his brother’s place. Will he be able to survive his captivity in the castle of a beastly king? Or will he find that maybe there is more to life than simplicity, and that sometimes the best things in life require a little risk?
Chapter 14

Hanahaki Bowuigi
Tehe I'm back 💋
HEAR ME OUT OKAY! You might think that oh yeah because Luigi is timid he'd be our poor victim, BUT OH CONTRAIRE LITTLE BISCUIT TIS BOWSER WITH THINE FLEUR DE BLOOD!
Due to Bowsers pride and natural aversion towards soft emotions he doesn't even realize that shit until Kammy or Kamek points it out to him. Kammy is trying to give him advice and Kamek only gives him sass™ further pushing him away from acting.
After a while of being partnered with Luigi out of nowhere and on rare occasions they get used to one another and even cheer for each other even if they aren't on the same team. It's a comfortable friendship and Bowser likes this new side he sees of him.
Eventually they become so comfortable Bowser invites Luigi on vacation with his family to a Cheep Cheep Island he owns. Junior loves him as his playmate instantly. Wendy bonds with him over their mutual love if dresses and encourages her to become a fashion designer and make a gun dress, on accident. Morton and Roy both like him because he can cook and helps them out with their lady issues.
Ludwig doesn't like Weeg for a while because he thinks he's a spy or something and thinks he'll try to break up their family. Iggy is almost in the same boat until he realizes that he wouldn't hurt anyone and poses no real threat it helps that he shows an interest in his inventions.
Larry is on the fence at first because he loves Wendy and Ludwig very much and values their opinion but he eventually decides he likes Weeg after joining in on their food fight. Lemmy is in the same boat as Larry, but quicker because Lu helps him calm down one of his brothers after a prank goes awry.
Seeing all this changes something in Bowser. He becomes more... feral. He becomes more protective of what his instincts consider his mate. He does his best to keep it at bay as to not scare Luigi. The longer this goes on the more he considers the surgery to remove his feelings entirely, he needs to take care of his children and he can still take care of them even if he won't feel love for them anymore.
Kamek and Kammy notice amidst their insistent bickering. They decide to be as subtle as a tank engine to persuade him to finally tell Weej and after much resistance he promises he will because the great king Bowser fears nothing!
Overtime Luigi notices how standoffish and strained Bowser seems now, even if he's more protective and hovering nearby more often than not. For a time he chooses not to say anything until he notices the cough.
Bowser had been holding back for a while before the flowers started to bloom in his chest. What was worse was that they were also growing through his shell. Scarlet Carnations filled both his waking thoughts and resting mind. It would take him hours of furious yanking to finally look normal again. Until he misses one
Luigi immediately asks him who is it. Who is it that couldn't love him? Bowser eventually spills while Luigi breaks down in front of him. Luigi doesn't get a word out before Bowser leaves acting rashly, thinking he made him feel so bad that he didn't feel the same he leaves to go through with the surgery.
Luigi tells Mario and Peach, they're married, of course the kids overhear and they know where to go and they go quickly to stop the surgery after Bowsers already been put under.
Bowser wakes up in his bed and he can still feel and Luigi yells at him about his actions and how they would have effected everyone especially the kids. Luigi finally gets to the part where it would affect him. He says he would miss him and heartbroken. He confesses his feelings for him and shows his own flowers to Bowser, they had only just started and thus begins the rest of their lives together. ❤️
Background stuffs
Bowser coerced the doctors into doing the surgery that quickly that's how he could do it so fast.
They have raging... Smut after also the older kids are happy ab this they had bets going
Kammy and Kamek are basically Bowsers parents in this.
Luigi becomes king along side Bowser and the koopas are pretty pleased with the change of treatment going forward. Everything's good ❤️

BURN FOR YOU 🔥💚
SUMMARY: Luigi found himself in a strange alien world, alone and terrified. But perhaps this place isn't so bad?
Chapter 13:
The next morning was as awkward as the previous ones. Luigi found himself spending more time in the room he was sharing with Mario rather than outside, wrapped in his blanket and missing the heat from the Koopa Kingdom. He was brooding. No. He was sulking.
Sadly, Mario, seemed to prefer the princess's company. He didn't blame his brother for leaving him alone but it still hurt. Deeply.
And just like many times before, his mind was kept going back to his time with King Bowser. It made him flustered. Confused. Lonely. He wanted to know how was the giant koopa doing. Was he healed? Was he thinking about him? How about Junior. Did the little boy miss him too? Luigi blinked away the tears gathered in his eyes with the palm of his hand, unsure why he was crying. He's fine, isn't he? He's not sad. He's not hurt. He's... He doesn't know.
He cuddled closer under his blanket, legs against his chest, hugging himself.
-
'Soon. It should be done by tomorrow.' Kamek thought determinedly despite the soreness in his bones and the tiredness in his eyes. In his age, not sleeping for a whole day is detrimental.
Whipping the sweat from his forehead, the old magikoopa took a step back to look at what he created. It was rushed and it would probably not work more than once. 'It should do.' He kept thinking to reassure himself. 'It has to be enough. For my son. For my family.' He added in the last second.
-
Peach stared at the human in red, her mind going in circles. She was, in the end, unable to rest during the previous night. How to make Mario's brother see what's right in front of them? Bowser is not a good guy. He's a monster, someone who tried multiple times to marry her. He didn't start by kidnapping her, of course. Indeed, initially all he did was send letter after letter. After letter. In all of them he asked her the same thing in different words:
<<"I saw you during one of my travels. Princess Peach, I have to admit I admire your strength and your beauty. Your eyes shine like no other jewel..."
"Today I couldn't think about anything else but you, Princess Peach. The way you beat those boos? Just amazing! Did you know I punished the Boos after what they did to you and your people? I hope everyone's alright..."
"As I turn and turn on my bed, I keep going back to the first time you talked to me. It was during your coronation, remember? I was invited as the King of the Koopas. You smiled at me. I wanted to ask you for help..."
"Would you do the honor to marry me, Princess Peach? I know it seems rushed. We can talk properly after our next meeting. I will explain everything to you..."
"Peach, I wish to marry you. It's an emergency. Reply as soon as you're able..."
"Did I do something wrong? You didn't reply to any of my letters. Have you not been receiving them? If so, I will make sure this time you do..."
"I don't know what else to do, Peaches. I haven't seen you after your coronation unless it's from afar or in a mandatory meeting with all the royals. I never seem to catch you alone long enough to talk to you. My letters remain unanswered and the others keep ignoring every word I say...">>
He kept insisting on meeting and marrying. There would be no wedding if she can avoid it. Luigi must see that too.
However, things got worse when he started to try to meet her in person. With smiles too wide, showing off his giant fangs. With red piercing eyes glued to her. She shuddered, the hair in the back of her neck standing up. She hated having his full attention. That was until... Until Luigi and Mario appeared. One second he's in front of her and the next he was under the lava. Maybe less than a second. She couldn’t tell. And that's were her predicament lied on.
"Princess Daisy, this is Mario. Mario, this is Princess Daisy from Sarasaland." She introduced them. Watching Mario greet her, she then turned to Daisy. "Is there a reason you're here, Princess Daisy?"
"Oh, none of that 'princess stuff'. Too stiff. Too cold." Reprimanded her old friend, scowling at Peach in mock anger. The blonde couldn't help but smile, if only a little, some of the stress from these last days leaving her shoulders.
"I'm sorry. I haven't seen you in such a long time." She excused her lack of familiarity with Daisy, blaming it on her duties as Princess. Mainly anything to do with Bowser. She stepped closer to the other, her arms stretched out and inviting. With a wide smile, the brunette closed their distance in a small jump, accepting the warm hug. Just like when they were kids. She hugged her tightly before letting go and promptly looking inquisitively at the human in red. Peach could already imagine all the questions her fellow princess had. It's not everyday they have other humans in their world.
"Mario, right?" He nodded hesitantly. "You are a human!" She exclaimed excitedly, clapping her hands with enthusiasm. Mario stole a quick glance at Peach, a bit confused. Understandably.
"Yeah?"
"Peach haven't told you Humans are very rare here, have she?" She sounded amused. He shrugged helplessly. She didn't explain. He just assumed...
"So, why are humans rare?"
His question simply got a secret smile on her lips. Odd, he thought. Surely, there's no reason to keep it a secret, not when she just mentioned it nonchalantly.
Peach rolled her eyes, something she wouldn't have done in the presence of her Toads or other royals. "Stop it, Daisy. It's because of the green pipe." She explained the last part to Mario, turning in his direction. "There's only one, to our knowledge, connected to the human realm. Which appears and disappears at random. No one has found out any pattern. Yet." Her brows furrowed in thought. The mystery of her origins has always intrigued her.
"Do you think we were sent here for a reason?" He wondered aloud, getting their full attention.
"It's a possibility." Peach couldn't deny it.
"We?" Daisy questioned, certain he wasn't referring to Peach or her.
"Ah. Yes, my brother, Luigi. We kinda got separated and... Well, what matters is that we are together again." He hastily explained. He wasn't sure how much the other princess knows about what happened with Bowser. Did Peach tell her? Would it be okay sharing said information with a stranger (to him) without Luigi's consent? He was still adamant his little brother had a good reason to believe King Bowser is a good person. Koopa, he corrected himself. He saved his brother's life, after all. Someone evil wouldn't do that... would they?
"I'd like to meet your brother." Daisy grinned. "After all, he's pretty famous after the stunt he pulled off. Although I was unaware it was your brother. Or another human, by that matter." She discreetly looked at Peach, who seemed to have realised what her friend was thinking.
"Not now, Daisy. Luigi is... not in his best state of mind." She warned the princess of Sarasaland, wincing at what Daisy did when they first met. They were kids so that could be excused. Not so much now. Her friend simply shrugged her shoulders, clearly not deterred by her words.
"My fratellino is doing better." Mario interrupted their conversation, annoyed at the lack of acknowledgement he was receiving. They were talking about his brother as if he wasn't there.
Peach quickly realised her miskate, feeling guilty. "I apologise, Mario. It wasn't my intention." She shot a warning glare at Daisy when she saw her about to open her mouth. To say something insensitive, no doubts. She knows her well.
"Yeah. That. Apologies." She uttered. "Anyway. Come on, Peach. Tell me what really happened. All I heard were rumours, not the whole thing." Daisy was as persistent as she remembers her to be. With another quick glance at Mario, who nodded at her in permission, she stirred them towards the Garden to talk more comfortably. And privately. There was so much she needed to tell her friend.
-
Luigi heard some noises outside, disrupting his daydreaming. His eyes opened slowly, half asleep. Getting out of the bed with some difficulties, Luigi approached the door while listening tiny feets running around. He was still in his pajamas.
There were even more voices now.
After so many days in his head, he felt he needed some fresh air and this felt like the best opportunity to do so. So, with some trepidation, he opened slightly the door, peaking outside at the Toads a few meters from his room. There were around five of them and they seemed unaware of his presence.
"Did you hear? Princess Diasy came to visit Princess Peach." One of them exclaimed loudly.
"I know! I was there when it happened. That's why I'm here. Quick, tell everyone else. We need to hurry and get everything ready." The other Toad said in a hurry, his tiny feet running in the same spot. They were very energetic because of this Princess Daisy.
Another Principessa, thought Luigi. Curiosity was soon replacing his nervousness, as he opened completely the door to find the Toads already left. Uh. His eyes opened wide when an idea formed in his head. There were no guarantees it would work. Unfortunately, he didn't know the castle well enough and he didn't know how to get to Bowser's. But Princess Daisy might. For that, he needed to get to know her. Feeling the shame rising inside him at the idea of using an innocent to get what he wants, he tried to shove it deep inside of him. It was a necessary evil. They'll understand. He winced internally. That's not true, they won't understand. But first, he needs to be presentable. With that in mind, Luigi went back inside and headed towards the bathroom to freshen up. He didn't really have a chance of clothing beyond his own overalls. Luckily for him, those were still clean enough to use for another day.

Parties aren't for everyone
“Come on it’ll be nice to dress up and get out.”
Luigi said knowing very well that he was pushing his luck but if he managed to wear down his fiancé then they would be able to attend the party being thrown by Princess Peach and with his older brother being knighted for his contributions to the safety of the princess and becoming her main protector.
As Luigi looked over at the mirror fixing his forest green and lime green spotted bowtie as he looked at his husband who was sulking on the bed and looking back towards his direction but at the wall and glaring at the light switch knowing if his gaze floated towards his fiancé, he wouldn’t be able to hold a glare looking at that face.
“You know that I’m going to go no matter what, whether you join me or not I’m going to support my brother this is a big night for him after years of saving the princess from… well”.
“Me, from me, you don’t have to skirt around it I kidnapped peach a few times,” at the hesitant look from his fiancé he backtracked. “Okay a lot of times, but you know the Koopa and Mushroom kingdom are on good terms and me and peach too.” He concluded quickly before stopping and looking down as Luigi looked over towards him.
Luigi let go off a breath he hadn’t realised that he was holding in as he walked over to his fiancé who was sat on the edge of the bed and Luigi walked over sitting besides him as he slowly placed his hand on Bowsers thigh as he absentmindedly started to draw small circles on his scaly skin as he let out a long relaxing breath.
“You’re on good terms with Mario as well, right? I mean I know royal events aren’t something you enjoy much but Mario is going to be your brother in law so could you not go for that reason, we don’t have to stay for the entire night we can leave the party but there’s a dance, it’d be a shame if my husband to be wasn’t there to lead me through a dance.”
Bowser simple let out  gruff snort with the ashy smelling smoke exhaling from his snout.
“Please…” Luigi added looking up at his fiancé with puppy dog eyes knowing it was a tactic the Koopalings had often used on their father for many a reason.
As Bowser looked down towards his fiancé he froze and looked at the innocent and puppy dog eyes and his eyes widened. This was a super argument something meaningless as he tilted his head slightly as he had looked at his fiancé a smile tugging back at his lips and his lips curled into a smile.
“Alright then fine, ill get my suit but ill hold you to escaping the party, you mentioned a while back that the gardens in peaches castle are nice?”
Luigi smiled brightly getting up quickly and getting in front of the mirror once again as he looked through the mirror as Bowser found his suit quickly pulling it on it was matching luigi but slightly different both suits were black however, the accent colour of Luigi’s was green and Bowsers was red.
The accent colour was shown on the buttons and the tie, his shoes were black with the souls having a touch of the accent colour. The shirt underneath was white and was buttoned with the accent colours on the shirt and the blouse with the cuffs of the shirts having a button with the accent colour.
"ready to go?" Bowser said with a gruff voice as his fiance nodded getting up and taking Bowser's arm as they left.

Bowuigi but make it a fairytale
I remember reading a very good bowuigi fic on ao3 that had Luigi and Bowser stuck in a fairytale world/book that had them re-enacting stories like Sleeping Beauty and Rapunzel with Bowser as the “Princess”. Can someone please send me a link to the story if they can find it?

Title: Practice Makes Perfect
Pairing: Luigi x Bowser
Rating: Mature.
Warning(s): SMUT!!, Trans Luigi, cunnilingus, size difference, sorta dub-con but not really??, MESSY, BOWSER IS A BIG BOI, turtle anatomy,
Summary/snippet: “I need your help.” Bowser informed slowly. Sharp teeth and fiery breath looming over him. “I’ve never been with a human. And my Princess Peach.. I don’t want to hurt her or.. disappoint her.” Bowser explained rather sheepishly. “I need to practice before I consummate the marriage with her.”
Luigi sat staring down at the pit of lava below with a solemn expression. Still rubbing his sore upper lip. His mind was stuck on Mario. His dear elder brother was being targeted by the monstrous giant turtle king who held Luigi captive in a cage over a pit of bubbling lava. It was absurd really. How had they even gotten into this situation? All they had wanted was to be successful plumbers. Yet somehow they’d been transported to this strange land, separated.. and now Luigi was worried they’d both die.
The other prisoners gave him no hope to cling to. Especially a childlike blue thing that spoke as if death would be mercy. He tried not to listen. He was scared and lonely. He kept fighting back tears and the sweltering heat was causing him to sweat and feel faint. Humans weren’t meant to be kept at this blistering temperature.
He was so overheated, scared, and worst of all.. depressed. With nothing to do but grit and bare it, that’s what he did.
It was hours upon hours of sitting there in that tiny cage. Silently. Suffering. When he felt the cage jolt and begin to ascend. He felt his stomach drop as he reached the top. And there stood the beast. King Koopa, Bowser, was what the other prisoners called him.
“Come human.” Bowser growled, shoving Luigi from behind to get the human moving forward.
Luigi stumbled as he tried to keep up with the giant turtle who had a surprisingly fast speed. He didn’t say a word. Didn’t know what to say. But the main worry he had was that he’d be killed, this might be it.. his final minutes.
Instead Bowser took him up a mighty staircase and further into the depths of the castle. Eventually they came to a stop at two huge doors, two koopa’s standing guard on either side of the entrance. The doors were adorned by ornate carvings of Bowser’s face. Wordlessly Bowser tucked a claw through the suspenders of Luigi’s outfit and threw the much smaller human into the room.
Once he got his bearings he risked looking around. It was.. a bedroom. A huge bed. Bigger than any bed Luigi had ever seen. With an equally oversized comforter and pillows. A nice looking red rug covering the floor. A lamp with a fancy shade. A side table with miscellaneous items on it. A ceiling fan. It was overall a nice looking bedroom.
It even smells nice here. Like fresh lavender.
“Is this your bedroom?” Luigi asked a rather dumb question since above the bed was a portrait of Bowser. A portrait with a smaller koopa child on his lap. They looked happy.
“Duh.” Bowser grumbled as he snatched Luigi up and tossed the human down on the bed. Watching as the small human landed with a small bounce swallowed up by the pillows and blankets.
Luigi looked absolutely tiny in such a monster bed. Completely adorable.
“W-Why did you bring me here?” Luigi asked, refusing to meet the turtle's eyes.
Bowser didn’t say a word as he crawled up onto the bed, slowly making his way up till he was hovering above Luigi. The human staring up at the monster from below. Trapped between the soft bed and the turtle's scaly body. Bowser’s head was right above his red eyes staring down at him.
“I need your help.” Bowser informed slowly. Sharp teeth and fiery breath looming over him. “I’ve never been with a human. And my Princess Peach.. I don’t want to hurt her or.. disappoint her.” Bowser explained rather sheepishly. “I need to practice before I consummate the marriage with her.”
It all dawned on Luigi at once what Bowser was saying. He wanted.. to have sex with him? What the actual fuck?! He felt dumbfounded just staring up at the king with lost big blue doe eyes. He wanted to say no. He really did cause for one he was sure Bowser would absolutely destroy him as the king was amusingly bigger than he was. He could only imagine what size genitalia the monster had.
But he was certain he’d die if he refused. He was in no position to turn down anything the king wanted. He was a prisoner.
“But.. I’m.. uh.” His face was absolutely flushed red at this point. He felt so embarrassed and bashful. As well as being scared. He looked away and bit his lip. “Are you sure? I’m not.. All humans aren’t the same.” Luigi explained, hoping that excuse would sway the king koopa.
Bowser just huffed slightly. “You’re close enough.” Was the answer he got.
So it seemed Bowser was set on this happening. Luigi was beyond nervous and terrified. He barely knew this man- monster?
He took a shaky breath as he turned to face away, not wanting to look at the king. “I don’t know you.” Luigi said softly, risking a glance up at Bowser. “And I’m scared.” He confessed, his voice even softer, quivering with fear.
He was startled as a giant claw came to rest gently against the side of his face, the king staring down at him with an unknown expression. Something between anger, confusion, and.. Worry? The claw began to gently rub his cheek as if attempting to comfort the human.
“Do you not find me attractive?” The king questioned. Flames flickering from his throat as he seemed offended.
“N-No I think you’re very..” Luigi blushed, feeling embarrassed and bashful. He did not think Bowser was bad looking. That was the truth. The turtle monster was actually very.. Sexy. He couldn’t deny that. “Handsome. You’re handsome.” Luigi insisted.
Bowser seemed pleased with that answer, a low growly hum coming from. The beast brought the claw down from Luigi’s face and used it to rip the human’s clothes. Luigi gasped as he felt the giant claw graze his skin as the monster quickly tore through his overalls and shirt. The clothes falling off his body in pieces, some fabric still clinging to his body. But the majority are gone.
His bare chest and plump thighs were on display. His fair skin flushed a rosy pink all over as beads of sweat still shone. He wore boxers still that covered his slight arousal as he felt wetness beginning to gather between his legs.
He took a shaky breath as he felt the same claw that had torn his clothing begin to skim over his exposed body. Stopping at his breasts, zoning in on his rosy nipples in fascination, the koopa king paused to use the tip of his claw to flick the buds. To which caused Luigi to moan and rut up, the green plumber immediately slapped a hand over his mouth in embarrassment.
Bowser seemed curious at the reaction. “What are these things called?” Bowser asked, lowering his head to get a better look at them. “And I assume they feel good when touched?”
Luigi whimpered as the king kept swiping a claw over his nipples. The king did not appreciate him covering his mouth and quickly stopped touching him to instead force Luigi to uncover his mouth. “Speak, human.”
Luigi’s lip trembled as he thought how to explain. “Those are breasts. And nipples. They’re used to feed infants. They produce milk.” Luigi explained to the best of his ability, he felt weird talking about human anatomy. “And yes, they’re sensitive.”
Bowser hummed thoughtfully, seeming even more curious than before, then to Luigi’s shock, the beast unleashed his forked tongue. The appendage was extremely long as it zoned in on Luigi's nipples beginning to lick the sensitive buds. Luigi thrashed and choked back a moan, then the beast lowered his head and sucked both of his breasts into his ginormous mouth. Sharp teeth barely grazed against his soft skin as he sucked hard. It was almost too much to take, Luigi held back a scream as he felt such strong sensations he’d never felt before. He wrapped his arms around Bowser’s head, grabbing fistfuls of red hair as he tugged and squealed loudly.
Then the beast backed off letting Luigi’s breasts fall from his mouth, his nipples erect and his boobs sore and abused. “No milk?” Bowser questioned, as if having expected to suck milk from them.
If Luigi wasn’t still recovering from that assault of sensations he would have laughed. “N-No only when nursing a baby do breasts have milk.” Luigi explained. His voice fainted as he shook on the bed. His pussy throbbing, absolutely dripping wet after what Bowser had done to his breasts.
But the monster gave him no time to recover as the beast was already exploring further down. Claw grazing down his stomach and to the last remaining article of clothing he wore. His boxers. The king tucked his claw under the elastic band and began to yank them down, exposing more pink flesh. The human’s wet folds are now on display for the monster to see. Luigi tried to close his legs only for Browser to force them open.
“No cloaca? .. Just bare skin.” Bowser noted, staring down at Luigi’s little pussy. Holding the human's legs up and open for his hungry graze. Luigi felt so shy but the koopa king seemed to like what he saw. “So pretty.” He purred, gently pressing a ginormous clawed finger to Luigi’s folds. It was awkward with the size difference as Bowser pressed apart the folds to reveal the human’s clit.
Wordlessly the king leaned down and pressed his snout in between Luigi’s legs. Snuffling around down there while gently caressing Luigi’s thighs with his claws. “Smells so good..” He growled, then Luigi felt the first passive lick. Bowser’s tongue was bigger than the human’s pussy. Able to cover the whole thing with one swipe of his tongue.
The human squeaked and reached down grabbing hold of the beast's horns. Bowser didn’t seem to mind as he delved into Luigi’s pussy. Pressing his tongue against the fat lips and over the clit experimentally. That caused Luigi to snap his legs together around Bowser’s head while letting out a particularly loud moan. The reaction just encouraged the koopa king to do it again.
“Mmm.. humans are so much easier to play with.” Bowser hummed, his words muffled by Luigi’s pussy. As humans didn’t have a cloaca or a plasterone, nothing to get in the way. Just soft skin.
Then the king found Luigi’s vagina. Immediately that forked tongue pressed right in, stretching his pussy open. “A-Ah..!” Luigi moaned as he felt the appendage inside of him. He squeezed around the intrusion, trembling as Bowser pressed it in as far as he could. Such a long thick tongue wriggling around inside him. So deep.
It was the strangest best feeling he’d ever had. He thrusted his hips up and pushed Bowser’s head deeper by the horns. “O-oh.. don’t sto-p please.” He begged a mess at this point as the sensation had left him close to crying. It was so powerful.
Between his legs was a mess of slick juices and saliva. And the king had his face buried right in it eagerly.
Nothing could prepare him for when Bowser brought his tongue out and licked back in. The room filled with the noise of Luigi’s moans and the squelch of Bowser’s tongue fucking in and out of him.
Suddenly he felt himself tighten around the king’s tongue like a vice. He tensed up all over, his back arching off the bed as he came hard. His juices rushed out with his release. His toes curled as he came down from his high.
Luigi whined in protest as he felt the king’s tongue leave his vagina. Bowser looked up at Luigi, his face absolutely covered in the human’s juices. And the turtle's tongue returned to lap up the rest of the plumber’s fluid like a starving man.
“So tasty.” The king purred rubbing circles on Luigi’s bare stomach with his claw.
Bowser lifted up and Luigi got a look between the turtle’s legs. The monster’s cock was popped out of the cloaca that sheathed it, sticking up proudly. Absolutely enormous and an angry red color. It was bigger than Luigi’s entire body.
Bowser bought his hand down to stroke the monster cock. “Like what you see, human?”

"You're saying all I need to do is...apologize to him?"
"Sì."
Bowser sighed. "And what if he doesn't forgive me?"
"He might not."
Bowser sat back in the nearest chair, resting his head in his hands. "You're not making this any easier."
"Look, Bowser." Luigi sat down across from him, placing two dinner plates between them on the table. "Junior adores you. Yeah, he's not obligated to forgive you. But he misses you, and he's upset about it, and if you apologized—"
"Would that even do anything?"
Luigi grabbed the koopa's hand, or rather as much of it as he could. "It'll show him that you're trying to fix things. That you care."
"Hey, Junior? Can I come talk to you for a bit?"
Junior nodded, his eyes shifting to the ground in front of him. Luigi walked over and sat next to the younger koopa, holding his hand for support.
Bowser cleared his throat, looking over at Luigi as if looking for a cue, or some sort of reassurance. Luigi wished he could be with both of them, but since he had to pick his battles, he figured the Koopa King himself could talk to his son on his own.
"I have something...important to tell you."
"Yeah, dad?"
Luigi held his breath, waiting to hear the apology Bowser had practiced with him for over an hour prior.
"We won't be kidnapping the princess anymore."
Luigi didn't know what to think. Of course, it was everything he could've wanted. But, they had planned on breaking the news to Junior later. He wasn't sure how this would pan out.
Junior's eyes widened as he instinctively squeezed Luigi's hand, his claws lightly digging into Luigi's skin. "What? But-but that's all we've been working for! It's-it's—" his voice faded to almost a whisper, but Luigi and Bowser could hear it just fine. "It's the reason you're gone so often. It was all for nothing?"
Luigi hated hearing the way Junior's voice cracked, and he could tell Bowser felt the same way. "Son, I..."
Junior buried his head against Luigi's shoulder, and Luigi could feel the gentle trickle of tears drip onto his shirt. "Hey, hey, hear him out for a moment, okay?" Luigi whispered as soothingly as he could. "I think your dad has something else to add."
Bowser cleared his throat again, unable to meet either of their eyes. "I always thought you, the koopalings, you all needed another parental figure. The princess was the perfect candidate. But now, I think that Luigi here will do just fine."
Luigi was glad Bowser was still looking away, just so he wouldn't see the smile warming his face.
"And plus—" Bowser's voice was a low, gentle rumble as he spoke. "With all that out of the way, now I have more time to spend with my boy. If, of course, he wants to."
Junior glanced up at his father, at his warm smile and open arms, and tentatively asked, "You promise?"
"On the universe and beyond."
Junior jumped up, running over to give his father a crushing hug. Bowser's face softened as he held onto his son as if at any moment he could lose him. It didn't take long for Luigi to be swept into the hug as well, both koopas being incredibly mindful with their spikes and shells.
He loved them. He knew it before, but it was even stronger now. More tangible, in their gentle claws and careful spikes and joy.
Oh, how he loved them. He just hoped his friends would be able to love them too.

I'll Let the Seasons Change My Mind (5/10)
also on AO3
featuring: Mama Mario, Papa Mario, Luigi, Bowser
wordcount: 1361
Tumblr media
It's another normal day in Brooklyn.
The streets are lined with brownstones and bustling with energy, blue skies littered with few clouds, and sun shining proudly above it. As close as one can get to Heaven, now that the Mario brothers have found their calling both here and in another world.
The Mario parents on the other hand, well… While they don't entirely understand the situation and what their sons get up to when they're gone, they're happy to hear of their success, so long as they remember to visit once in a while.
They do understand, however, that a now familiar trembling of the city means someone is on the way.
"I'll get food ready!" Mama calls over her shoulder, hands clapping excitedly as she rushes about the kitchen to put something together. "I wonder if they're bringin' that lovely princess again— Now there's a woman with confidence!"
"There's a cocky woman." Her husband argues from where he's been cruelly interrupted standing watching the TV. "Least she's takin' care of 'em."
"Mannaggia!" Mama scolds, checking out of the window and raising her brows at what she sees— Luigi, happily chatting away to Bowser from where he's perched on the King's shoulder. "It's the lizard…"
Papa huffs his confusion at that, making his way over. "We have plenty of lizards, Maria," One look out the window, though, and he's grabbing a pan to throw at the damned thing's head.
Luigi hears the whistle through the air and raises a hand, catching the handle before the impromptu weapon can meet its target. "Hah, must be cleaning out the place…"
Bowser grumbles, unconvinced. Luigi isn't the best liar. "We should go," He decides, eyeing the manhole they've just emerged from. "They don't want me here."
"Hey," The plumber frowns, tucking the pan under his arm so he can gently turn Bowser's head his way again. "I want you here. And it's only for a while— Promise. Then we can go back."
Turning his attention up to the window, he snickers at the sight of Mama holding Papa's ear, very sternly whisper-shouting at him.
"She might give you a chance, see?" Luigi encourages, ruffling that red fur. Sighing, Bowser raises his gaze to follow where his companion's looking, brows knit together tight. "She's the one that really matters, I wouldn't mind too much about Papa. He's, eh…" Grimacing, he makes a so-so gesture with his hand. Not the worst father, but certainly not the best. 
"An ass?"
"Just don't say it to his face and you'll be great! You've got this." He winks, before grabbing holding of the pan's handle and waving up towards the window. "Hey-o!"
"Hey-o!" Mama calls in return, very subtly shoving Papa out of view. "I'll bring the food out to you guys, don't fuss yourselves comin' in!" Good choice, until there's an appropriate entrance for Bowser.
Within minutes, they're all gathered around a table outside, Mama and Papa by each other's side and Luigi contentedly settled on Bowser's lap as he splits the offered food between two plates— Mostly fruits and greens, easy to snack on as they approach springtime.
"So," Papa begins, brow raising as he leans back in his chair. "Y'not destroyin' things anymore, eh?"
"Pa!" Luigi hisses, coupled with a light smack on the arm from Mama. "He's workin' on himself! Can't just be asking that…"
Bowser clears his throat, shifting awkwardly. "Kamek has been giving me therapy."
"You hear that? He's going to—" Pausing, Luigi hums as he looks back to the King, impressed. "That's a big move!" That… could have been made a long time ago.
"It's been offered over the years, I've only accepted recently." Bowser admits, head drooping a touch. 
"Better late than never, there's always time to improve." Mama nods sagely as she eats. "Our Lou used to be in therapy!"
"That was counselling, Ma. And it was school counselling, way different." Luigi shrugs, waving a hand as he focuses back on their plates and offers the fuller one to his companion. "They're more focused on gettin' you productive again, really, that's all they care about."
Papa snorts. "Stopped all the phone calls home, so they did their job either way!"
"You didn't want to hear about your son?" Bowser asks, slow and purposeful.
Mama and Luigi share a tense glance, but for now, let whatever's about to happen go ahead. Even grown men need to hear the truth sometimes. 
Papa splutters at that. "Of course! But not when it's all bad news—"
"So, you'd prefer not to hear of his struggles, and refuse the chance to help him with them as he's growing?" The King corrects himself, nodding. "I understand."
"Agh, he knows he can come to me if anythin's bad!"
"I don't and I didn't." Luigi retorts, gesturing with an unpeeled banana. "The talk with you was always to put my head down and focus on work— I did that, and you know how hard it is to focus when you've got people screamin' in your ears on both sides because you're every teacher's behaviour buffer, Pa?"
Bowser grimaces at the mere thought of such a punishment for being well-behaved. Human life truly isn't as simple as he thought…
"Ma was good, though, Ma said they don't know any better. She was right, they didn't, and that also took the blame off-a me. I couldn't rely on you for anything other than the roof over my head, Pa— And trust me, I'm grateful for that much, but you know…" Luigi shrugs, peeling his banana.
"It takes more to be a father." Bowser finishes for him, arm instinctively coming around Luigi as he watches Papa get up and excuse himself back inside in a huff. 
Letting out a whistle, Mama chuckles to herself. That'll be fun to deal with later… "You seem to know a lot about that," She offers as a new conversation starter. "Being a father, I mean."
Bowser manages a smile for the first time since they've sat down. "I have more than a handful of children— I'm not perfect either, but I do my best."
"I didn't know that." Luigi pipes up, though it clearly hasn't put him off judging by how he's grinning up to Bowser. "I know about Junior, of course."
"Then there's Larry, Morton, Wendy, Iggy, Roy, Lemmy, and Ludwig."
"Now that's a variety!" Mama smirks, leaning over the table. "How you gonna deal with them, Lou?"
"Ma!" Luigi whines, rubbing a hand down his face. 
"What? It's a valid question if you're gonna be sharin' a life, huh?"
Bowser's quick to step in for that, clearing his throat. "We haven't discussed that yet…"
"Looks like you should be discussing it now." Mama jokes, sitting back again. "I mean, seems like yous are attached at the hip already— And the only other person I've seen defend him like that is his brother… Wouldn't mind having a good lizard for a son-in-law."
"Turtle, Ma."
"Dragon turtle." Bowser further specifies before glancing down to the man, a fond purr rumbling through his chest. "Whatever he wants, I'll give him."
Looking up to meet his eyes, Luigi can't help a blush spreading across his cheeks. "Only you."
"And you already have me."
It's like there's nothing else in the world, just the two of them and their snacks— Until Mama squeals from across the table, hands clapping. "That's that, then!"
Later on, Bowser decides to drop Luigi off in the Mushroom Kingdom— He'll want to talk to Mario after that, no doubt.
"Thank you for bringing me home." Luigi chirps, even if he's a little unenthused about his feet touching the ground again. He really could get used to just being carried everywhere, safe on Bowser's person.
"Not at all." Bowser hums, gently pressing his snout against his cheek for a moment— A sign of affection, Luigi's learned. "About the kids… You don't have to worry about taking on responsibility with them. Like I said, more than a handful."
"I want to try." He reassures, smiling bright. "If there's anything I learned from how I had to grow up, it's that every kid deserves a chance."

Luigi and the Beast Chapter 15
Oh? What's this? A second update to this story, but this time an actual chapter with Luigi in it???
Ha. I posted earlier that I was planning on posting today, so here it is! It's a fairly long one, too, almost 20k words. There is no Bowser, sadly, but there is plenty of Luigi and the Koopalings (and Junior) interaction, so hopefully y'all will like it.
A warning, though... there is talk about a potential past suicide attempt. I say potential since it is unclear in the text whether or not suicide was the intent. I posted about it on my Tumblr if you want to see the context, but I would recommend reading it after reading the chapter, or else it might not make a lot of sense.
Anyway... I hope y'all enjoy! No idea when/if the next chapter will be, but I'll keep y'all updated!
You can find the chapter here
Summary:
Luigi is a simple man who lives a simple life. Every day is the same as the last, with nothing ever happening that changes the status quo. While some may think his life is boring, Luigi enjoys it well enough, relishing in the simple monotony, not needing endless adventure and excitement to make his life have meaning.
Unfortunately, everything changes when he gets the news that his beloved brother, Mario, has been kidnapped by a fearsome beast in a far off kingdom that he’s never heard of before. To make matters worse, in his endeavor to save his brother, he ends up making a deal with the beast where he has to stay as a prisoner in his brother’s place. Will he be able to survive his captivity in the castle of a beastly king? Or will he find that maybe there is more to life than simplicity, and that sometimes the best things in life require a little risk?
Chapter 15
From the beginning
