Guardian Fic Rec: Destiny/Fate

Here, have a collection of fics that are mostly about how Weilan and Fate and or Destiny. I have omitted fics I have recced before, and the Destiny/Fate here is understood very broadly - from soulmates to “we will meet again” promises

My fill for ‘Destiny/Fate’ for @guardianbingo

on the road, the spirit of the traveler is almost broken by si_mao

Novelverse, a look at Shen Wei after Kunlun’s death and after the novelcanon - short but so beautifully written and so touching 🥺 their fates are entertwined here so tightly, I could not pass it up

On the day the ghostlight shines for the god who restlessly awaits by Hyde_DualDomination

Art and a short story about god Kunlun and his Shen Wei reuniting. It is, technically, a companion piece to my fic, but I believe you can enjoy it without any prior knowledge of said fic, the writing and the art speak for themselves

Nameless by thosch3i

Soulmate au that incorporates novel canon and it has Shen Wei in pain over not being able to be Kunlun’s soulmate because he does not possess a soul. Very touching, perfectly written and it has a happy ending!

Not All Those Who Wander by Xparrot

A blend of drama and novel verse - I won’t spoil how and why but it’s heartbreaking and wonderful in equal measures. Happy ending, don’t worry.

No Matter How Long by rlyqueer

A bit of Weilan derivatives, because it is technically a Time Engraver fic, but it also serves as Guardian post-canon and that’s all I will say on the matter. It’s great 🥺

A vow set in stone by naye

Arranged marriage and magical vows of true love, I cannot say more not to spoil the finer details

These are my favourites on the subject - I don’t read stories with ‘destiny’ as main focus very often, that’s why the list is short, but I hope those interested will find something interesting here nonetheless ❤

Hey!!

I’m a big fan of your blog as I am a fellow James and Sirius apologist. I feel like there aren’t enough people out here that love these two and their bond so finding someone who feels the same is like nothing short of a miracle. Especially one who is active on here. Also, I’m a big fan of your stories you are an amazing writer. ❤️

I was just sitting here thinking about how Sirius could have put an end to Lily’s relationship with James with a snap of his fingers if he felt so inclined. Like James and Lily are “soulmates” in canon but not the same soulmate level these two guys are on you know? I think back to your fic Shovel Talk in regards to this and how Sirius basically tells Lily as much. It just makes me sorta giggle (is that wrong?) because it’s just so true lol. Like James and Sirius were operating on a whole different plane of reality than everyone else I swear. I just I love those two boys so so so much.

If you wouldn’t mind sharing I would love to just read your thoughts on these guys. Like just to read you talking about them and their bond in whatever capacity you want. Weather it be what you think of them, how you see them, who you think they are, how you think they’re perceived by their friends just any and all thoughts you feel like sharing. This is only if you don’t mind. I just live for these two codependent lunatics and love getting to see other people love them. 💛💙

anon there is something in my eye and u might be responsible for it 🥺🥺

i don’t know where i’m getting this prongsfoot attention from as of late but i am absolutely not complaining because it is the best thing ever and i will never tire of talking about my baby boys. thank u so much for liking what i write (and thinking i’m active lol) :”)

also!!! another shovel talk fan!!! listen every time someone references that story, it makes my heart do this giddy little spin because it’s literally one of my favorite fics/hcs and i genuinely thought people wouldn’t like it but they do and it’s amazing.

you’ve given me such free reign that i don’t know where to start lol my mind has suddenly gone blank trying to think of something i haven’t already talked about before

hmmm ok let’s see. i know i skew towards sirius leaning on james a lot but i fully believe it was a relationship of equals. james was equally besotted by and reliant on sirius as the other way around. so i mentioned this in the last ask a bit, but i see james as someone who’s constantly burning bright and it’s…not exactly easy but very possible to snuff that light out completely. and i think lily had the potential for that bc of her sharp tongue & self righteousness. and she wouldnt think to tone herself down for james, either, because she sees what everyone else does—a spoiled, happy go lucky, privileged dude who doesn’t need to be treated with kid gloves. fair, yeah? except. sirius has seen this boy inside out, knows how fucking sensitive he is, and will do anything it takes to make sure james doesn’t shrink himself to fit the world. and this isn’t like—a huge thing, not for sirius. it’s in the little actions—cutting someone off when they might say something hurtful, turning him away from people who don’t like him, casually blocking hexes cast behind his back etc etc. sirius doesn’t have blinkers on, he knows first hand how ugly the world is and he doesn’t want it to touch his james. (sure, that might mean putting up with his big headed ass but he’ll take that any day over a subdued james potter) and we know from swm that he’s not scared or hesitant to go against james if needed so he’s the perfect person to both keep him in check and protect him ykno? (very grumpy one protects the sunshine one of me)

another thing i love thinking about is how unconditionally they love each other!!! james has a mean streak (often powered by ignorance/arrogance) and sirius genuinely has a whole dark side bc of his black heritage (so many thoughts on that ughhhhh) and it means the absolute world to sirius that james accepts all of him. his family doesn’t like him being a ‘muggle loving traitor’ and the people at hogwarts are scared/wary of his name and anger and sometimes he’s seen it even in his friends’ eyes and he’s sick and tired of having to hide parts of himself to be palatable so it’s like a fresh of breath air to be around james who never ever judges him. i��m such a sucker for unconditional acceptance lol both sides of sirius are fundamental to him and he can’t separate them from himself so whenever james steps up to him without hesitation or fear, it heals a part of him.

also, this might seem obvious, but i think they genuinely liked each other in a way that u don’t always see. like, they were each other’s favorite persons at all times, no questions asked. the average person might get sick of spending so much time with one person, even if it’s their best friend (i know i couldn’t lol) but not these two. they happily welcome every opportunity they have to be together. that’s why detentions are fun—hours left alone to goof around while working off their energy? sign them tf up. they genuinely look forward to talking to each time, every single class they share, nighttime when they can crawl into the others’ beds etc etc it’s all horribly codependent and perhaps not the healthiest (definitely not in a non-prongsfoot universe) but it’s james&sirius and even if they were stranded on an island together, they’d be happy about it

wrt to the james/lily/sirius thing—god, yes. sirius *knows* that he only needs to say the word and james would listen to him over lily and that’s so much power and sometimes he’s equal parts terrified and on top of the world bc of what he holds in his hands but it only makes him more determined to not abuse that trust and faith james places in him. i think this would happen with any potential partner, if only a bit harsher w lily bc of their experiences. james will always, always turn to sirius first and that can be a good or a bad thing, depending on how u look at it. u just know that remus and peter were envious of this dynamic but i think, over time, they overcame it and just resigned themselves to it. i can even see them (particularly remus) actually being a bit thankful it’s not them because let’s be honest, a friendship as all encompassing & overwhelming as this? not easy at all. u need to be able to completely open ur heart and soul up, break down even the smallest pretence of barriers, accept that you’ll always be part of a whole and that’s neither simple nor desirable most of the time. and i truly don’t eee remus laying himself bare open like that, not even for j or s. so i think he’s actually a bit relieved that these two tide over their most intense behaviours with each other and you get a more toned down version of them around others lol (does any of that make sense? i’m just rambling here tbh)

i’m gonna stop here bc i have no clue of any of this is even like, coherent. i erased and wrote the whole thing 2-3 times bc it kept growing a mind of its own and Not Cooperating so i hope this draft is,,,okay ykno?

#sirius black #james potter #prongsfoot #obligatory disclaimer that this is mainly headcanons bc i don’t want anyone coming @ me #been more hesitant on here lately bc i’ve been vagued by someone and it’s not fun lol #we all know bad faith interpretations r the only way people operate here eh? and i rly don’t like it #but anyway yeah. this is how i see these two and i’m rly not apologetic about it #why can i never stop myself from going off on these long drawn tangents smh #i have Thoughts re a confrontation w say lily that causes james to shut down and doubt himself so bad he’s like a ghost of himself #and it scares sirius so bad bc he’s never seen james so…quiet and he hates it. so he tries his best to make sure that never happens again #THIS WAS THE BEST ASK EVER ANON #thank u so much 🥺🥺🥺#i love love love talking about these two (in case it wasn’t obvious from all the rambling hehe)#they have my entire heart #also think others look at these two and just genuinely get so baffled bc…how can two people be so happy together? it’s almost cartoon-ish #i’m not saying they didn’t disagree (well….) but it wasn’t like. A Thing. ykno?#and they always always respected & loved each other first no matter what the situation. didn’t like being away or fighting #so it was always in their best interests to make up as soon as possible #fic: shovel talk #ppb #pen’s asks

🥺🎢💖👀😬 for the ask game? -💙

<3 <3 <3 Thank you!

...you know it'd help if my computer would actually display all of these emojis. Luckily my phone does so cross referencing time!

(...oh yeah that length thing.)

🥺 Is there a certain type of moment or common interaction between your characters that never fails to put you in your feels?

...I can point at it but I'm not sure how to put it into words, but: people understanding and caring about each other, not because they Just Get It When No One Else Does, but because they're okay with not getting it so long as they know what the other person wants/needs.

Also people prioritizing each other in unconventional ways and despite not being expected to. (Whiiiich mostly means 'while not in a romantic or parent/child relationship.')

Basically I like it when characters are important to and care about each other (especially in ways that are very specific to the characters and not culturally standardized), but I want it to be... organic isn't a good word; I like when characters click and I like when they've built something powerful over time, but I very strongly prefer that they could have built something equally good and strong and valuable with other people if they'd made different choices/the situation had been different (or maybe even they have! I love when characters have multiple strong and different relationships), and I tend to be :/ about anything that feels too much like Destined One True Love No One Else Will Ever Love Or Understand You Like This.

(Except that I do enjoy soulmate fics. I am vast and bewildering to myself as well. Although I like a lot of tropes that make things I am otherwise uncomfortable with explicit and a major part of the worldbuilding.)

It's also very easy to get me with characters that are... hm, not rejected entirely, but conditionally tolerated? "You're weird and annoying/otherwise disliked, but you're useful, so we'll be polite, but you're only welcome so long as you're being useful, not as a friend or anything." Or characters that have internalized the idea that they're only acceptable to the extent that they're useful.

Also it's not exactly feels, but I love snarky characters and good banter.

🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?

...hard to say, but it's probably a Girl Genius fic. That fandom is just wild inherently.

I think if I'd gotten very far with it Yet To Be A Legend probably would have won, since it was meant to be Agatha POV as she broke through and learned that she was a Heterodyne while escaping/adventuring through the wastelands. Buuuut it only got two chapters, so that didn't really happen.

As it is, Somebody Else's Dream might win, because while the actual in-story emotional arc is pretty standard, the context is... I believe @songwithnosoul called it "a charming tale of kidnapping and coercion" and, well, yeah. Yeah. Girl Genius is Like That.

💖 What made you start writing?

Genuinely no idea. The first story I remember writing (outside of school assignments) was because I wanted a character who had escaped her abusive family in canon (Menolly, for those who know Pern) to go home and Show Them All how great she was so they would be forced to recognize how wrong they'd been about her and feel bad about it. So I just started writing it, with full plans to mail it to the author, be praised for how great it was, and have it officially published as part of the canon, because I did not yet know what fandom or fanfic was and thought I was the first person to ever have this idea.

(Luckily I was about 10-11 and abandoned it after about a page and a half, or else Anne McCaffrey, the canon author, would still be suing me.)

I'm pretty sure I'd been writing before that, though, so I have absolutely no idea where it started. It's just a thing I've Always Done, which is actually very inexplicable since my family is fully STEM-oriented and all encouragement was toward Being A Scientist. I was an obsessive reader as a kid though (like, I recall being about 8-9 and being able to read while I walked through the hallways between classes, because I would not put books down even that long), so writing was probably a result of that somehow.

👀 Tell me about an up and coming wip please!

Currently all my writing energy is going into either original(ish) stuff or Blessed Sacrifice AU (cowritten with @denialcity/@codedredalert, Naruto Founders "hey what if we took this ship-enabling trope and went WAY into the deep end of worldbuilding and consequences for it? ooh look, a shiny supernatural idea--").

I don't want to get very spoilery, but I'm slowly working on a few side fics (oneshots probably, with another POV, but no major plot developments/not actually necessary to read to know what's going on in the main fics), one from each of Izuna's parents' POVs.

There's also the (not yet titled) next main fic in the series, which will be Tobirama's POV (ooor maybe shared with other Senju), and get into how other clans view the Uchiha and their whole Thing with red-eyed people and yomotsu-shikome. Also Uzumaki religion!

😬 Which of your fics would you be most horrified for friends, family, or coworkers to stumble upon?

*sliiiiides the 45k of problematic city alpha/omega AU behind a curtain*

I feel the need to specify: the alpha/omega is not the source of any of the problematicness. The characters are just awful all on their own. If anything they're actually less problematic in the alpha/omega AU.

Anyway though that one's not getting posted, so really if my... okay well basically all my friends are in fandom one way or another and have probably been linked to my AO3 at some point, that's not saying much.

But if family/coworkers somehow found my AO3, ehhhh whatever. I don't really write smut so, I guess there's the dramatic sort of poetry from when I was 15? But nothing is particularly embarrassing or more personal than People I Know Reading My Writing is in general. If anything family reading my fanfic might be less awkward than them reading my original writing, because the canon provides a bit more interference between me and whatever they read.

Thank you again!

Do you ever get tired of Alina Antis & Darklina Antis claiming that she isn't Aleksander's True Equal and Balance? He literally calls her that on the show! Furthermore, Ben and Jessie BOTH have said that Alina is Aleks's Destined Yin to his Yang. They are soulmates that met at the wrong time. 🥺😭

I am not a big fun of book!Alina too, but in the show at least, she’s kinda better. Alina is his equal, is his balance but she is not at his level yet. And she can’t be so soon. She needs to learn more about their - his history, more about wars & kingdoms, more about what it means to have a unique power.

I think what Darklina needed to work was time, which of course LB took it away so brutally.

Anyway, everyone has their opinions about anyone.

Like we said multiple times, Ben & Jessie was a win for this fandom. They understand better than anyone the pull between these two characters, and in my opinion, except from the writer, it’s only the actor who knows better the character. And that says a lot.

200 Follower Event!

Headcanons – ABO AU! - Alpha! Ace; Soul Mate AU! - Marco; ABO AU! – Alpha! Whitebeard (Edward Newgate)

Alpha! Portgas D. Ace

🔥Undoubtedly the sweetest and most unique alpha you will ever meet, never uses the fact that he is an alpha to undermine or look down on people.

🔥 Ace has never actively pursued a mate, until he was absolutely struck by {Name} since for some reason he found himself overcome with such a strong urge to protect them and be around them.

🔥 Ace is very possessive and can get jealous extremely quickly should his mate be in the company of alphas that he does not like, nor trust.

🔥 Very affectionate alpha considering most alphas typically try to appear standoffish and indifferent to their mates for the sole purpose of trying to appear above everyone else. In fact – Ace hates people like that.

🔥 Always there to comfort his mate whenever they may need it and is very perceptive to even subtle changes in them.

🔥 Extremely calming presence and notably has a scent with the same calming effect which his mate loves.

Soul Mate! Marco

🍍Marco’s tattoo was very well known…the mark of the first division commander of the Whitebeard pirates – now when he started hearing talk of someone else sporting the same tattoo…it made him curious.

🍍Initially believing it to nothing more than an imposter – until he noticed it…on {Name’s} chest – how could someone possibly get the same tattoo done in the exact same place as him?

🍍 “Where did you get that tattoo-yoi?” Marco asked, as {Name} replied before even turning around – “I didn’t get it, obviously the ‘better half’ decided to go ahead and…” {Name} stopped when they were faced with Marco.

🍍 It was a phenomenon specific to soul mates…should one get a mark, scar or tattoo, it would appear on their soul mate- but this was a bit unbelievable to Marco, realizing there was another way of knowing whether or not it’s true… “If that’s true, then you left a scar on my body as well…where is it?” he inquires

🍍 {Name} chuckles – “Scar on your left knee relatively long and jagged – I got it when I fell out a tree” Marco was now convinced… this was his soul mate

🍍 Marco apologises for his seriousness and doubt in them, {Name} laughs saying it’s alright – since they got ‘revenge’

🍍Marco finally realized why the guys would laugh when they saw the back of his thigh…

Alpha! Whitebeard (Edward Newgate)

🎅Whitebeard had been regarded as the strongest alpha on the sea, no one ever questioned whether he was anything other than an alpha.

🎅 Unlike the world, Whitebeard ran his ship with a strict rule of equality, saying that whether you are an alpha, beta or omega – you are no better nor worse than any of your fellow crewmates.

🎅Has a fierce loyalty to his family and even more so towards his mate

🎅 He feels no real need to be overly possessive or jealous since no one would try anything with his mate and also since he trusts his mate fully.

🎅Whitebeard shows a very gentle and softer side to his mate.

🎅 The only time he will use his alpha status (and with great reluctance) – is when he deems it absolutely essential to protect ALL of his crewmates.
