Picturing LFL au where Luke did manage to escape with Shiera that day. Imagining Luke offering to inter Aemond on driftmark rather then have him killed.

Everyone thinking it’s some weird guilt thing or a devotion to the seven he must’ve found in captivity (obviously no one knows the extent and assumes most rumours spread by mushroom are obviously false (side note George making the drunken lecher having more truths versus the oh so pious Septon Eustace is something I can 100% see)).

Luke just enjoys having the say of whatever Aemond eats or wears. The fact that he’s the only person who can decide if the terror of the riverlands lives or dies is something he probably thinks of whenever he’s having some trouble with sexual intimacy ( though no one would know about the extent to his occasional internal struggles with his past not even Rhaena). anytime he remembers his abuse that’s only been shared with (maybe Rhaena??) ,Jace or Daemon (who would have a bit more of an idea of war time practices in Westeros) he remembers that he has Aemond in his hands not the other way around.

Balancing never seeming weak again and being this loving brother/son/heir that once came so easy to him. Then him and Rhaena having her six daughters like canon (for Rhaena) and him making the eldest heir like he fought for but always in the back of his mind that men are not safe from other men in war time but especially not women. Just whole other bucket of trauma for him to deal with. Especially after he started praying to primarily female deity figures during his own s/a and captivity.

Probably spoilers if anyone has ever read my own fic but I quite enjoy Luke claiming Cannibal trope (now a trope, at the time I started publishing my fic in October 2022 there was crumbs to eat but thankfully we’re feasting now as lucemonders!!). Arrax being this pearlescent dragon who was swift and growing every year symbolising Luke himself growing from this unsure boy into someday maybe someone more sure of himself then claiming cannibal a dragon rumoured to be strange enough to devour its own kind, pitch black and monsterously older than the Iron throne itself. Just a very silly and lazy way for me to bring this visual of loss of innocence tho I defend myself in my mind that GRRM probs wanted Arrax to evoke that when he made him Pearl white with golden chest to die when he was 13 along with Luke.

Not even getting into the fun interactions with Aemond. Maybe Luke is still keeping this love act up for some fucked reason in his head and has Aemond convinced he’s alive out of love. Or if history changes yet again and Aemond has the injuries of Rooks Rest instead of Aegon (like the rumours his dick broke) after the war kicks off later, how Luke would manipulate his way into topping him (the thing he’ll think will “cure him” of his nightmares and traumas. Not how that works bookie but I understand even being raised by a polycule in this time would not save him from the patriarchys nonsense lol)

Even better him visiting winterfell with Jace and stumbling upon his brother and Cregan and watching their interactions (Cregans fucking Jace’s “cunt” and still sees him as a man??? Talks about loving Jace’s cock despite being the “man” in their relationship) just completely breaking apart his ideas of what he’s internalised m/m relationships being.

I wouldn’t change a thing of LFLEFE of course, it’s perfection. it’s always fun to read someone’s work and wonder of the “what ifs” (which is what I do between chapters of fanfiction too as you’ve seen from my delirious asks before lol) and how the characters would shift and change when the butterflies wings change to a different direction.

At that point in the story Aemond has already planted this cruelty in Luke (not in general, we see him freely empathise with people even when not knowing them like the servants entering the chambers after shieras death) that Luke has to foster against Aemond in his mind to survive the ordeal. It’s a coping mechanism for him that allows him to continue the charade. The satisfaction of tricking Aemond is probably what kept him alive through much of the uncertainty.

A scene of the new show Mary & George where the main character who usually tops bottoming with his enemy after (falsely) professing love just to fuck with his mind and get one final “I’m the one who won here. Go fuck yourself” literally gave me this vibe and I don’t know where it could possible fit in this “au” lol. Luke taking back his own asshole in a way idk that’s so silly hahah

Luke taking his own feelings of self loathing and low self esteem and sharpening them into a weapon to use against Aemond? Art, chefs kiss!

Sorry this got so long I was inbetween tasks and kept forgetting how long it was 🤣

some very mild spoilers for the themes/arcs i have planned for the series

a friend had already recommended Mary & George to me, but this definitely confirms i need to watch it also, 100% get it. i constantly have to restrain myself from writing canon divergence fic of my canon divergence fic. to the point that, if i do manage to finish the series in a reasonable time frame, i may very well cave and do just that. (personally, i like to think that if Shiera lived, she would have become a sailor). tbh if anyone, for whatever reason, wrote a 'what if' fic based on any fic of mine... well, i think that's kind of the highest honour a fic writer could receive, isn't it? so it's a practice i fully endorse.

westerosi gender is 100% something i want to explore/am exploring in this series. especially in relation to sexual violence being so gendered in the setting, to the point that being raped is almost feminising in the eyes of many of the characters. lfleye!Luke 100% identifies as and will continue to identify as a man in the series. but his experiences now means he identifies *with* women far more. as you've noted, Luke is a very empathetic character. while not many characters will acknowledge it in-universe, Luke is extremely strong as a character, and thats proven with how his experiences have increased his empathy rather than diminished it. it's so tempting to be 'strong' after being 'weak' by inflicting abuse on others and exploiting whatever societal power you have, especially in a setting like Westeros. but a really big part of Luke's arc is going to be to a refusal to do that, and to continue to identify with the abused (women, lowborn, etc). (some of my interest in Theon as a character actually comes from a similar place)

this is a roundabout way to say that, yes, if he had six daughters he would be Stressed. but those six daughters would be very, very lucky.

at the same time. lucemond in this series is Toxic. with a capital T. and i'm not going to let Aemond have all the fun with that. if Luke ended up in the role of captor, it would be delicious. because he would 100% find comfort and satisfaction in asserting control over Aemond, even as he felt shame for it. or, alternatively, felt shame for *not* feeling shame for it.

and oh. oh boy. Luke being confronted with an actual heathy (for hotd) m/m relationship, not just in the abstract of Laenor but in the this-is-happening-right-now-in-front-of-me of his brother, would also be an experience for him. probably one he needs. in general, Luke is definitely going to try and get a better understanding of sexuality, and his sexuality specifically, in the next fic. whether he succeeds...

and Cannibal!!!! gods, i adore Cannibal. i do remember him being kind of unpopular, at least among some of the more active fan creators, but i saw this analysis about how he represents the dance--black scales, green eyes, eats his own kind, disappears at the end--and i've been obsessed ever since. he's definitely going to make an appearance so he can bring that symbolism (amongst others) to the table, whether Luke claims him or not. (i decided in 2022 whether Luke was going to claim a second dragon or not, and if yes then who, and while it is foreshadowed in the fic, and in some of the comments, i'll at least pretend i'm maintaining the mystery). what's the name of your fic? bc i would love to read some Luke & Cannibal.

Since I didn't find a promising list of Fanfics with Mikey Centric, I'M MAKING MY OWN

You can leave suggestions, THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE FROM 2012 OR MIKEY, JUST THAT HE IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER AND THE BOYS FROM 2012 WERE VERY FUCKED, but I am also open to reading from all the series and all the characters. (If you recommend LFLS I'm going to throw you out the window)

This will be constantly updated, but it's like... 3 in the morning here and I have school tomorrow

HEY SUNSHINE The darkness is safe but darkness is still darkness. Everyone needs sunshine to make the darkness feel less bleak.

Underground there was no sunshine.

Mikey decided that he would be that light no matter what it did to him

-My favorite story of all time, if you like Badass Mikey this is your story

REMEMBER YOUR MISSION 8 times Mikey drifted with someone...

...and one time he didn't need to.

-The 2012! TMNT x Pacific Rim AU It's good, it's worth it a thousand times, but it's more to pass the time and be calm from so much angst

Edit - REMEMBER WHAT I TOLD YOU ABOUT ANGST? WELL, I LIED TO YOU *starts crying on the floor*

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LOVE MEANS (and it's killing me) "Finally, they could try and regain their lost childhood, to be a family again.

Except…

His family didn’t feel like family anymore.

-Do I... do I have to explain this? It's... I cried a thousand times when I read it, it's worth a thousand times the moon but... I'M STILL CRYING MY GOD

SPRAY PAINT, VIOLENCE AND SUPERHEROES Miles and Mikey meet up and decide to fight crime together. Absolute chaos ensues.

Turns out, bad guys don't like turtles and spiders together very much.

-I NEED TO SAY THAT I AM A SHELLSHOCKED FAN, I LOVE THEM, THEY ARE MY BABIES

FIVE MINUTES 'TIL SELF DESTRUCT Even the mightiest of ninja cannot always avoid illness. In Mikey's case, it's the one thing he's never quite been able to dodge. But when a simple cold leaves the family's youngest without a voice, misadventures quickly turn into discoveries as the family bands together. Let the sick days begin

-It's fun, it's VERY good to pass the time, I really liked the narrative and how the brothers interacted

BABY BROTHER When it comes to Mikey

Leo indulges, Raph protects and Donnie teaches

-THEY MAKE ME GO QKAJQIHDJQJANQNDKQLA I LOVE THEM THEY DESERVE THE FUCKING WORLD

TWO HALVES OF A WHOLE HEART Whenever Mikey isn't feeling to great, he'll seek out his older brother.

-I CAN'T I LOVE THEM

I CAN'T HANDLE REJECTION Michelangelo breaks the TV.

-It couldn't all be so fluff, it takes a little bit of a lot of depression to live

WHERE DO WE BEGIN? (the rubble or our sins) Mikey is hit by cuddle pollen, and he and his brothers try to deal with it. (And maybe heal some family wounds along the way.)

-You don't know it's sad until the sad thing comes

ONE MORE NIGHT (please, just for tonight) The night before his big trip, Mikey's brothers stood him up. He pretends he's not hurt about this

-You know you should cry, you didn't because you're a monster.

BE LIKE YOUR BROTHER (and never like yourself) Three times Mikey tried to be like his big brothers.

And one time they told him he didn't have to

-Ah, I could read this a thousand and one times.

WHAT NICOTINE DOES Mikey looks for a way to sleep again without nightmares. He's not doing his best

-Ah, yes, this is me promoting my own fanfic

SONG OF A SUNNY DAY (fading into dusk) The lair has been filled with nothing but the sounds of a heart monitor and quiet. It's too quiet for Mikey, so he goes on a solo run of the city. He finds a violin case on the ground and decides to take it home

-I have love for this story. It was one of the first ones I read and the reason I returned to my love of the violin. Don't look for much angst... they serve it as a main dish

SO HERE'S TO THE HEARTACHE The sequel to "You don't know what love means (and it's killing me)"

-I JUST *CRY INTENSELY*

A CALCULATED PLAN Mourning the loss of splinter, the four turtles struggle to maintain a positive relationship with each other. But when Leo finds a letter saying that Donatello will be the new leader, the divide between the brothers becomes larger.

-HAHAHAHHAHA you are going to suffer so bad

SWAY On an undercover mission to stop a villain’s scheme, one named King Pen who was hosting a party Mikey meets Miles and they have a dance. Let’s sway!

-WOAHHHH I WANT A BOYFRIEND SO HARD *cries*

EMPATHY AMPLIFIED Mikey’s always been one to shoulder his brother’s pain. What happens when the family therapist begins to experience mystic empathy? New powers plus old habits die hard.

-I just... FUCK OFF MAN I READ IT DURING THE NIGHT 'CUZ I HAD A HYPERFIXATION U NEED TO READ THIS

THE SHINOBI'S GARDEN

-Compilation of one-shots of series that I love and will leave here below

DEVIL TOOK YOUR HAND Michelangelo gets ambushed; the Shredder gets another chance to test his mind control serum (I... can't say it)

ALL THE SMALL THINGS An experiment gone wrong de-aged Donnie back into a toddler. Good thing Mikey's great with kids. (ABUBUBUBUAAAHHH I LOVE THEM SM)

RECORD-BREAKING HEAT Losing power overnight may also mean losing your pet cat, if she's made of ice cream (Yeah,... *cry*)

IF WISHES WERE FISHES Raph, Leo and Donnie are quadruplets whose baby brother died the day they were born. When Raphael brings home a new friend with wide blue eyes, a face full of freckles, and a brown belt in karate, the whole family gets a taste of what it might have been like had Michelangelo survived (I just love this story :])

WALK WITH OPEN HANDS Mikey’s head snaps up like a rubber band, so fast it hurts his neck. His father is standing in the doorway, whole and unharmed and strong. He tilts his head, taking in the probably dumb way Mikey is just standing there staring up at him (I'm pretty sure I still don't understand the ending. BUT FUCK, IT'S A WORK OF DAMN ART)

TRAVELING SO FAR TO GET THERE The sound of the apocalypse is a pop number from 1968 by The Foundations. And that’s only because Raphael’s little brother didn’t have the common courtesy to get a decent punk-rock song stuck in his head on the day they fell into this hellscape in the first place. He’s just saying, The Clash or The Offspring or even Fall Out Boy would make more sense, like, thematically. Instead he’s stuck listening to—. “WHY DO YOU BUILD ME UP! BUTTERCUP, BABY, JUST TO LET ME DOWN!". “Mikey,” he yells across the street, “I swear to GOD!” (Long description, and yes, The Foundations became my favorite artists for a week just because of this story)

PROBLEM CHILD Michelangelo has three overprotective big brothers, some questionable friends, a burgeoning need to make himself useful, and a lot of growing up to do. (MY GOSH YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS ONE)

I'VE BEEN AFRAID OF CHANGING It’s not fair. Donnie’s so smart. He’s tired and overworked and unhappy, but he’s smart. How can he get this one thing so wrong? How can he not know Mikey as well as he used to, like all of those years of being each other’s best friends and co-conspirators and secret-keepers from where they were relegated to the “B Team” aren’t as intrinsic and important and fundamental to him as they are to Mikey? How can he look at Mikey, right in the face, and not understand him at all?. Something breaks. (I hate myself for thinking the deleted scenes from 2007 were trash)

-And like these stories, she has thousands more, only these are my favorites and they have Mikey in them, but yes, it has Leo and Usagi, Raph and Casey, Donnie being... Donnie i guess

If Donnie was your original favorite, should we be worried about him whenever you’ve finished LFLS? /hj

Now come on now, it's not like lfls wasn't concocted as a perfect nightmare scenario for Donnie JUST as much as Leo.

christmas rottmnt hcs!

mikey and leo insist on decorating the sec halloween is over, rapheal believes in after thanksgiving, donnie refuses to participate until its december

mikey and donnie plan which gifts they are going to give out to who, because 2 years ago they gave rapheal the same gift. donnies really greatful because it stops him from making another shock collar type gift (no lfls joke intended)

mikey made a portrait for the entire family when he was little and splinter has kept it in his room since

they have sugar cookie art competitions (judged by mikey ofc) and rapheal has won every single year since, shocking donnie and the others because hes usually not artistic

april somehow always knows whats at the top of their christmas lists. donnie and leo noticed and went out of their way to keep it a secret from her and she STILL figured it out, they think its rapheal whose ratting them out

donnie and leo argue over if the nightmare before christmas is a christmas movie!!

raph insists everyone watches elf every single year and everyone hages it

mikey makes everyone dress up when they throw their winter parties and play white elephant. he says it makes him feel like hes in north pole

donnie and leo organize snow fights. mikey eats the snow

raph and mikey got ugly matching sweaters. leo got jealous and tried to get donnie to get matching ones with him, he was DISGUSTED at the idea

idk i hc cassandra as jewish bc i wanna so imagine cassandra and casey jr making latkas, asking mikey to help him make a cool design for his handmade kippahs and playing dreidle with donnie, using statistical analysis, who was shocked he wasnt winning. in reality, casey jr was just cheating for golden coins

after casey jr taught donnie about dreidle, donnie mikey and leo all had a championship with them and starting betting really important stuff. rapheal had to intervene

anyway these are my headcanons, sorry for the shit post

Scenario continuation LFLS- "... With the way pops treated me... I... I just... couldn't believe anyone would truly love me." Sebastian started. "I couldn't truly trust anyone... and not only is that scary... but the position my pops was in... Not only that... but him having been partners in crime with a certain warden... but also.. there's that fake president... they were basically like... a trio of evil in powerful positions... Anyone who defies or opposes them is sure to disappear..." The former prosecutor said. "I... all I really wanted... was for pops to love me... but he never really showed me any love... and I... think I closed off my heart because of that..." He sniffled, shaking. "I... I hate getting beat up... it feels like I'm reliving those... nightmares... nightmares of pops when he'd beat me up and burn my heads..." He cried, shaking, and holding his head.

"I'm sure there were some people that really did love you-- and probably still do. Probably hurt after this, but..." Mimi wheezed as Acro elbowed her.

"What she's trying to say... is that there were people who cared-- people who would've been willing to help you."

Acro wheeled over, patting his shoulder to comfort him. "Well, next time, they'll have to get through us."

☞︎ CURRENT WIPS !

a list of my drafted fics/blurbs that i haven’t touched since three weeks ago because i tend to hate my writing every time after rereading :D the descriptions + titles are temporary so i might change them later on !!

— BLURBS.

spaces [hhj angst; based on hard feelings by lorde]

strawberry blonde [hhj fluff; lowkey got inspo from mitski’s song of the same name hhh]

rewrite the stars [bc angst; one highschool reunion, two intertwined souls, and a love that never was. what else could you ask for?]

—☽——☽——☽——☽——☽———

↳ starcrossed (blurb series); fluff, angst, several aus.

tales of starcrossed lovers stumbling upon crystal epiphanies that will bind them both through thorns & roses—through thick & thin—for a lifetime.

member/s: chan / minho / changbin / hyunjin / jisung / felix / seungmin / jeongin

—☽——☽——☽——☽——☽———

↳ break my heart (oneshot); angst, highschool au, 80s au.

one small town. two lost souls. third eye diner at four am. kim seungmin takes five to contemplate a future that’s been decided after someone turns up & makes him feel like turning the world upside-down—the same someone who he’s aware can make his universe crash & burn in just a flicker. [based on dua lipa’s break my heart as requested by an anon that’s been waiting too long now i’m so sorry xjsnjsnwns]

member/s: kim seungmin

—☽——☽——☽——☽——☽———

↳ forever yours (oneshot); fluff, angst, humor (?), vampire au.

in which chamomile tea and conversations with an immortal vampire make for an unusual (but pleasant) monthly occurance for yang jeongin.

member/s: yang jeongin

—☽——☽——☽——☽——☽———

↳ unnamed (oneshot); fantasy au, swan lake (?) au, royalty au, fluff, angst.

sit down, dear traveler, and gaze at the sky—let the stars bring the remnants of a fallen kingdom and a fatal curse; let the quiet breeze whisper to you the tale of prince hyunjin and the gentle musician who brought him his demise.

member/s: hwang hyunjin

—☽——☽——☽——☽——☽———

↳ call it what you want (oneshot); hogwarts au, enemies-to-lovers au, humor, fluff, angst.

you want nothing more than to shove two wands up kim seungmin’s nostrils, unfortunately having your greatest mate felix falling for the school nightmare’s best friend hwang hyunjin meant putting up with him; and for felix, you would do anything. besides—love reigns over all, doesn’t it?

member/s: kim seungmin (feat. hyunlix)

—☽——☽——☽——☽——☽———

↳ puppy love (oneshot); strangers-to-lovers au, bassist au, barista au, pure fluff.

one would think meeting a cutie would be a good thing, right? well, it isn’t for felix lee. because if he doesn’t play his cards right, it might end up like every other crush he’s had: with him biting the dust and karaoke night filled with trashy heartbreak songs—he isn’t quite sure if them being a barista at his favorite dog café is a good thing, either.

member/s: felix lee

— UNWRITTEN IDEAS. (bc my procrastination is off the charts this year smh)

unnamed athlete au [ksm oneshot; basically baseball player!seungmin falling (like,,, literally) for the opposing school’s volleyball captain, the reader, and the clusterfuck of chaos that ensues shortly after he does.]

unnamed knight au [hjs oneshot; an enemies-to-friends fic where reader & jisung are incredibly skilled royal guards but are also,,, utter idiots (and platonic soulmates).]

with love, lix [lfl blurb series; whereas lixie asks reader, his best friend, to become his faux lover at a relative’s wedding in italy, which inevitably becomes the start of a series of unfortunate events.]

unnamed siren au [hhj oneshot; honestly idk if i’ll ever go thru with this hhh]

400 lux [00line blurb series; what happens when jisung decides to summon a demon after reading a reddit thread]

#wips #yes i’m aware i have too many drafts (not counting the ones i have in the enhypen fandom shsjsiwjne)#this one’s 4 u starcrossed anon + those who liked the post !!

did you two sleep well? — lfl

summary — you hate horror movies, but you dont hate felix

genre — fluff

warnings — n/a

word count — 1.4k

you woke up crying.

sleeping had always been quite tough for you, but eventually you could fall into a slumber. however, when a horror movie is thrown into the equation, then the outcome? well, it's quite different.

throughout the whole film, you sat in between hyunjin and felix, probably the closest friends you'd ever had, even within the group. when a jumpscare would appear on the screen, you would bury your head in felix’s chest, while hyunjin would keep a hand on your back, knowing how scared you could get (this also left many times for them both to scare you, but that's a story for another time).

after the movie ended, everyone went into their shared rooms, ready for sleep. but you weren't. as soon as you got into the guest room you were staying at, you ran to your bed, blanket moved to cover your head, and body crumpled into a scared ball. you hummed a song, your usual way of falling asleep, but that didn't work as well as it usually would.

laying down into a comfortable position, you finally allow yourself to fall asleep, although still thinking about that horror movie.

as you slept, nightmares overtook your mind, making you wake up quickly, tears in your eyes. you try to fall back into your slumber, but find that you can't. you check the time to see that it's almost 2:00 am. getting out of bed, you decide to wander. you head towards the boys' rooms without realizing, and stop outside felix’s room.

before you stop yourself, you knock, seeking the comfort of someone. you didn't really recognize how going to chan or even hyunjin never crossed your mind until that moment. suddenly, you got shy, scared that you bothered him, and wrapped your comforter closer to your body. you almost turn around to walk away when the door opens.

felix is standing there, hair disheveled and eyes very clearly still filled with sleep. "y/n? what’s wrong?" he says in english (you always spoke in your native tongue when you were alone), rubbing his eyes.

“i...i just couldn't sleep, and kinda wanted to see someone." you whispered this, your nightmare flashing in your mind when you remember why you were outside his door. felix is a small bit confused as to why you would need someone, when he hears you whimper slightly. he finally looks up at you fully, noticing the tears in your eyes. he quickly wipes the tears away, frowning.

"oh my.. did you have a nightmare?" you nod at his question, looking away, and wishing you wouldn't have bothered him with something you believed to be so trivial. when he sees your confirmation, felix pulls you into a hug, noticing how scared you really seemed. you tense up slightly, but then relax at his next words. "hey, it's okay. i don't know what you dreamed about, but i know that it's gone now, and i’m here. all is well okay?"

"can i- can i stay with you?" you mumble against his chest. you know you shouldn't be so shy around one of your best friends, but you couldn't help it. you had grown to have a crush on the young male, and that thought distracts you slightly from your previous nightmare. "i just, i dont think i can be alone..."

"of course you can stay the night with me. you don't even have to ask." felix smiles at you, bringing you into his room, and sitting you on the bed. you lie down, him doing the same facing you. cuddling into his chest, you sigh, finally content, the thought of your nightmare gone. felix chuckles at your antics from above, stroking your hair soothingly.

you couldn't really tell, but his heart was racing fast, as was yours. you looked up at the boy, admiring him. you felt so happy in this moment, comforted, content. you stared at him, at his beautiful brown eyes, smooth lips, and his freckles, oh his freckles.

"what’re you doing there, mate?" he asks, looking down at you, a smile playing at his lips.

"counting your pretty freckles."

"how many are there?"

"i lost count." you smile to yourself, hoping he couldn't see the small blush painting your cheeks. felix moves his head down so you two were directly eye to eye. he makes a funny face, causing you to laugh. he smiles back, staring into your eyes so very deeply. you take notice of how his gaze quickly moves down to your lips before looking away. a smile slips across your face at his awkwardness, but you can't help but blush harshly aswell.

"y/n?" you hum back at felix, listening. "may i, um kiss you?" he stutters the words, not seeming confident in himself. your eyes widen, and you unconsciously nod. he seems taken aback, but soon gets over it, putting a hand on your cheek and another underneath your head like a pillow. he leans in, as do you, and your lips quickly meet. you both shy away after a couple seconds of kissing, as the feeling is both awkward since you're best friends, and extremely exhilarating as each others crush.

"i really care about you, you know that?" felix asks you. you nod, sincere. "and i will always be here to protect you from nightmares. and help you fall asleep. don’t think i haven't noticed your slight insomnia." he looks at you seriously, and you finally understand what is means to be in love. you know that he means what he says, and you hope he knows you feel the same. "now please, it's late. you should sleep. and don't worry about nightmares, i will be your own personal dreamcatcher."

"ok." you nod at his words, already slipping into unconsciousness. "and felix?"

"hm?"

"i really really love you."

"i know."

---

the next morning, you are awoken by the sounds of voices. "oh my. chan is going to kill them!" the voice sounds like jisung but you couldn't be sure

"oh i can’t wait to see that!"

"no! my best friend can't die so young! i still need her!" definitely hyunjin, even from your drowsy state.

"and i still need felix!"

"guys! quiet down, you'll wake them up, and alert chan-hyung."

"you already woke us up." and that deep voice belongs to felix. you finally open your eyes to see jisung, minho, hyunjin, changbin and jeongin crowding around you two. you look in between you and felix and notice he's spooning you.

"hey guys." you say, starting to discreetly push felix’s hands off of you, but he notices and tighten's his grip. the boys coo at you two, as you speak again. "and honestly, you can tell chan. i don't even care anymore."

"oh i already know."

you all whip your heads to the door, felix wincing when he sees chan leaning up against the doorframe.

"hi, channie...” you say, moving away from felix, scared of what your brother will say.

"hey, mate. what’s up?" felix’s deep voice is huskier due to the sleep, but it doesn't mask the absolute terrified edge in his words. by this time the rest of the boys were waiting outside the door, just watching the drama unfold.

"did you two sleep well?" chan’s voice seems condescending, and you look at felix quickly and see your fear reflected in his eyes.

"i- we- uh.."

"oh c'mon! you really think i would care?" chan suddenly speaks, smiling and running happily into the room. "i even shipped it myself!" he says, jumping up and down, and dragging you and felix out of the bed.

"really?" you and felix both say incredulously.

"of course, but if you hurt her i will personally hire a hitman to kill you because i dont want your blood on my hands, got it?”

I just realized that in LFLS, you probably have to tell your boss/the boss has to tell their right hands any kind of serious relationship they have. For security reasons. What an utter nightmare.

#beablabbers #up next - list of bosses I would want to talk about my lovelife with the least #storie nostre #just date your coworker to circumvent that #your relationship cannot be a potential leak if you're already in #it really has something absurdly feudalistic to it #but neat! another point to use to explicitly not romanticize organized crime #okay but that aside the thought that Alois had to tell Roderich about all his shortlived relationships is pretty hilarious

Hey! So, sorry to bother you, but do you have any advise on writing fluff? I don’t know what I’m missing, but there’s just something so soft and unattainable whenever I sit down to write some good nice times...

I have to admit, anon, that I do find it hilarious that of all people in the fandom you come to me for writing advice on this. What work of mine gave you the idea to ask me for help on writing fluff?

Still lol I am actually pretty skilled at it according to some of the behind-the-scenes people for lfls. I suppose what my personal take on it is that in order to write really good fluff, there has to be a bit (or a lot) of conflict leading up to it. I’m not saying you can’t just write a cute scene that is feel-good and have that be soft, but for writing I tend to get bored if I’m not first and foremost invested in the emotional stakes.

If you only have fluff, the story can feel boring. If you only have grim dark, the story can feel dreary and– once again– boring. You want your readers to WANT the characters to obtain something. If your characters are always happy, then, well, why do we care that they’re happy in that moment? They always are, it’s not anything new. In the case of fluff, you want people to be rooting for the happiness of your characters. It doesn’t have to be a huge conflict, but you need there to be an obstacle or some sort of motivating factor for a character to seek fluff. The character has a nightmare– the conflict– and seeks reassurance. The character has to do this thing to get a hug (go return a DVD), and so the audience roots for them to do so and then is happy to see the result.

You want set up and then pay off, basically.

Fluff and angst aren’t actually that different. They’re different emotions that people feel, and so long as you understand how to convey emotions in a believable sequence, you should be able to pull off any emotion. Fandom might try and package them into “genres” but in reality it’s just different areas of a person’s mood. We all have the capacity to feel strong grief and absolute joy. It’s what makes writing so interesting to read and explore! Study how your emotions shift and function in response to situations and you’ll get better at writing them.
