i need a fic like this on Ao3 right now
AU where Arcturus raises Fletcher after his parents are killed by the orcs. Being a close friend of Edmund and Alice, Arcturus is the only one that Sir Caulder trusts with his young lord, because he wouldn’t have known about the secret mountain passage (as he hadn’t grown up a noble) and so couldn’t have betrayed them!
He knows that he’s the only family Fletcher has left and that if he were to die, his beautiful boy would be left all on his own, so he doesn’t go after the orcs that had killed Edmund and Alice, and consequently doesn’t end up losing his right eye or getting his scar.
Arcturus takes up a permanent teaching position at Vocans, doing administrative work, and making sure Fletcher grows up knowing how much his parents had adored him and each other. He becomes the steward of the Raleigh properties and fortunes, helping manage everything until Fletcher is old enough to do it himself, and hiring countless tutors to make sure Fletcher knows all his duties and responsibilities.
And after decades of searching, Arcturus finally finds the family he’s always yearned for in the form of the son of two of the people he had loved most in the world.
You just combined two of my fixations
You never cease to amaze me, mi amor.
Ok… I ship it
Someone has very specific...tastes🧐

Ok, thats the prototype of a history I’m creating.
I like circus, I like Greek mitology, why not fuse both?! It’s pretty simple for now, a circus that takes place in the 20s /30s,where the artist named themselves after the Greek gods.
But names hold power, they’re clearly not the real Greek deity’s, but for using their names, they also get their personality, their fates are adapted to retelling of the original myth .
( Thats just an excuse to draw Apollo in a trapeze artist clothe)
Shanks: If I say I love you, will you say it back? Buggy: Yes. Shanks: I love you. Buggy: It back. *Later* Benn: Why is the captain crying face-down on the floor?
Fuuuuuuck i love this fanfic 🤧😭
N/ purely self-indulgent hhh, plus I always wanted to do something like this when I read a good fic. First attempt at making a webcomic.
Rated: M
Tags: Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Crack Treated Seriously, BAMF Uzumaki Naruto, Genderfluid Character, Yandere Shikamaru Nara, Smitten Shikamaru Nara, Naruto with Tsunade's Strength, Love At first Chakra Enhanced Strike,.... etc.
Chapters (so far): 2/?
Summary:
Shikamaru’s never felt chakra so vibrant and warm before.
The log that Naruto’s been punching shatters clean apart, reduced to little more than splinters under the devastating force of his chakra enhanced blow.
Shocked and more than a bit startled, Shikamaru wheezes loudly, the sound carrying across the clearing and causing Naruto to abruptly turn and look in his direction.
And in that single moment Shikamaru is lost.
[excerpt]
...because Shikamaru is a Nara to the core, is the strongest they've seen in generations, and the Nara have always been a clan of Shadows after all.
and what does the shadow crave more than the light?
Naruto, with his ocean blue eyes and his golden hair swaying in the breeze his attack had created, shines as bright as the sun itself.
And Shikamaru intends to have him.
(edit: forgot to add this)
..."so much for that quiet wife and two ordinary kids idea."
"Time for a new plan." Because, really, there's no way life with Naruto is going to be any form of quiet or normal.
....Shikamaru's entire life plan has to be thrown out the window and then redrawn from scratch.
Either way Shikamaru's not actually all that upset about his entire life being thrown into an abrupt upheaval.
After all, convincing Naruto to marry him as soon as possible will be well worth the effort.
Naruto's pretty sure this is the closest they've ever actually been to one another outside of the few times they've been paired up to spar in class.
"What're you doing after this?" Shikamaru asks, one hand coming out of his pocket to reach out and play idly with the dangling sleeve of Naruto's kimono.
"After training?" Naruto keeps one eye on Shikamaru's hand...
"More like for the rest of your life," Shikamaru says. "But sure, we can start with training."
Naruto blinks.
.....[Naruto's] not really sure what, exactly, is happening here but he thinks this might mean Shikamaru wants to be his friend now.
Ah my sweet summer child.
Not an exact play by play of what was written in the fic, only the gist I guess and the moment that rly stuck in my head and got me giggling in my pillow.
My love for the "oblivious pure(?) mc and their darker, possessive s/o" trope has struck again. Couldn't've stopped myself from finishing this even when sleep-deprived, which I currently am right now. Had fun challenging myself with this too and might attempt it again with a future chapter or other works depending on my schedule. I'm occupied with studying this month so making something time extensive like this won't happen for awhile yet.
Excitedly waiting for updates :D
I KNOW this is just delusional blabber but how good would it have been if after Whole Cake Island Sanji started to flubber & swish around Luffy the way he does with the ladies?!
It would've been SO CUTE AGH!
"Luffy-kyun! You have taken a shower, good job💕"
"Ah~ Luffy-chwan looking cute and dashing this morning as well! No stealing food though~"
And when Luffy is on the battlefield you always have a split second of Sanji in the background twirling his heart out before going about his business o(〒﹏〒)o
Wait. Wait a fucking second. Looks at Trustedpartner
Is THAT why I love Sanlu so much?? HELLO????
Never agreed so much whit a tumblr ship post
Have brainrot here are my favourite straw hat ships and why
Zolu - i just love them, they make so much sense they're literally soulmates. Even in fics they aren't together romantically they will always be soulmates. The way they understand each other with a look. They way luffy was so excited to see zoro in impel town only to realise it's just bon clay using his face. The way zoro is always so ready to die for luffy cause his dream is now so integrated with luffys.
Lusan - sanji is luffys babygirl especially after wci. The way luffy looked at sanji when sanji was talking about the all blue.
Zolaw - grumpy sword bfs. Like they have so much potential like why did zoro have to pull law onto his lap after dressrosa. What happened onto the journey together wano that made Law so desperate for zoro not to die. They're seen together in every scene in zou.
Zokiku - if zoro was going to be with any woman it would be a 7 foot tall samurai lady. The despair in his voice in wano when he sees her arm.
Namivivi - GIRLFRIENDS. They're so cute in little garden and alabasta. They are literally in love.
Namitash - nami and her love for strong female marines after her mum.
Namiwanda - they're so cute in zou, nami cares for her so much.
Sanuso - love love love them they're such cute bfs. The way sanji is so protective of usopp.
Usokaya - the cutest childhood friends to lovers
Sanjiviola - the only woman with an appropriate age without making sanji look like a predator. They were actually so cute in dressrosa.
Acesan - ace was flirting. Ace was sanjis bi awakening.
Frobin - PARENTS AHH I LOVE THEM. They had so much chemistry in enies lobby, thriller bark and punk hazard. Robin making fun of him and playing nonchalant as her way of flirting, and franky being bold in how he shows his interest in her. Frankys speech saying she deserves to live.
I'm a bit of a sucker for the Robin jinbei franky and Brook polycule I can't lie... they just work.
Tbh the east blue polycule is also so cute, like the east blue boys are namis boys.
There's probably more i can't think right now I'll add more if I think of more
i was writing for ‘ The Fantastical Olympians’ ( I FINALLY have a name ) and get stuck struggling with a decision :
Should I add Asclepius or Troilus in the story? I will add a child for Apollo ( still seeking a real name for him) anyway.
BRASIIIIILLLL!!!!
