Awww thank you! Yeah PLL is definitely close to my heart.
Yeah The Right Wrong Number verse is so fluffy I think it should come with a tooth-rotting warning š That was the fic that could. Honestly it started off as an AMR oneshot, prompts expanded it to 5 chapters, and then I added another oneshot and two more multi-chapters to the verse. It was totally unexpected and all from one prompt oneshot.
Belle: We looked through a book of names. Nadia means hope which just seemed perfect. It also sounds slightly unusual, or a little old-fashioned, just like Baeden or Alistair. Nadia Gold just felt right.
Gold: A perfect name for our perfect daughter. Sheās just as brilliant and sweet and curious as her mother.
Belle: And as stubborn as her father perhaps? I think her first complete sentence was ādo it myself!ā
Gold: *laughs* I think she gets that from both of us sweetheart.
omg, thatās so sweeeeeet!
(and, okay, I did enjoy MM having to eat humble pie. *happy sigh*)
I just love the idea of Gold listening to Belleās concerns about their dating life and immediately suggesting the the kids can watch over themselves for a couple hours. š
Also, Emmaās thoughts that poor Bae had a younger sibling to destroy his denial made me laugh. So, no younger brother for Emma in this version? Or just not yet? lol
This was too cute, I really did enjoy it!
Heh Iām glad you enjoyed it! No Emma doesnāt have a younger brother (yet) though that could still happen. This verse is āfinishedā for the moment, but as it started with a oneshot and now has 3 multi-chapter fics + 1 oneshot due to prompts, never say never to adding more š Thank you so much for the lovely comment!
Belle and Gold dance. A scene from the third chapter of my fanfic Counting Stars for Fluffapalooza 2017. Happy Skin Deep day everyone! š
Bae: Iām sure the dance is going to be great – if we ever get there! Papa just went to make Nadia choose a book, so we should be leaving soon. Do you ā¦ do you think that Emma would like to ā¦ (whispers) kiss?
Emma: (checks the clock again for the hundredth time in the last five minutes) Bae isnāt late but ugh I hate waiting. Mom and dad already left so they could chaperone. All the older kids always say the dance is lame, so I donāt know, I think itāll be cool. Kiss Bae? *blushes* well maybe, if it feels right. Do you think heāll want to kiss?
Thatās what David keeps saying but I donāt know. The man seems to have relished his reputation up until now, and standing up for him is an unpopular position. Think about what the rest of our friends would say. *sigh* I know itās the right thing to do but doing the right thing isnāt always easy. I donāt want my car to be spray painted next, this town can be vicious when it wants.
Everything is crazy with thanksgiving and Christmas at the moment. However, David has suggested we all go out for dinner together. The moment we can find a date everyone can agree on, weāll go. I know thatās an excuse. Maybe it would be easier if the kids came the first time. Iāll have to talk to David.
Synopsis: Following directly on from All Hallowās Fall. Due to the events of Halloween, Storybrooke finally becomes aware of Gold and Belleās relationship and small towns can be vicious places. Gold fears it will tear them apart, but adversity can lead to strength not just ruin, and maybe even one day – a happy ending.
Note: Thank you all for your lovely comments on the last chapter. I struggled to respond as I normally do because what I wanted to say was āoh ye of little faithā heh. Anyway, itās Sunday which means fluffy fic time! I hope you enjoy this chapter š
On Tumblr: Chapter One, Chapter Two, Chapter Three
Belle watched
Alistair panic and felt a curious mix of amusement, guilt and relief. The deer
in the headlights look, the frantic movements and the unconvincing denial was
amusing. However, she felt a trace of guilt for being amused when he was
obviously so panicked. She also felt relief because it was evidence, if she
needed it, that Alistair couldnāt lie to her. She didnāt think he ever had, and
she couldnāt imagine that he ever would, he wasnāt that kind of man, but it was
reassuring nonetheless.āAlistair ā¦ā
Belle started.āYes, yes, Iām nearly done and then we can leave,ā
Gold stammered.āCome with me,ā
Belle said firmly.Hm, hopefully inviting Moe wonāt backfire. He started off as his usual canon asshole self, but did seem to turn reasonable. As for the scene in the shop, yay! I am so glad that Belle saw his panic for what it was. I hereby award you with the Crown of Fluff! *Kneels respectfully* Carry on, my liege.
You are a lovely, lovely person. I know Iāve said this to you before, but I think it bears repeating. I might not always reblog your comments anymore, as Iām wary about reblogging too much. However, that doesnāt mean I donāt appreciate your comments – I seriously do appreciate them! Thank you so much š
Anyway, heh yeah as I said earlier this story has somehow developed plot, backstory and a tendency towards angst. Iām fixing it with communication at the moment so hopefully I will be able to keep the Crown of Fluff! š I rather like having a story where they are basically happy, and they deal with their problems together.
leni-ba replied to your post:
I Love the Way (Chapter Four)
Awwwwww! This was delightful. I loved Belle sitting him down and telling him what her plans for the future were.
As always, Bae and Emma are adorable! Of course they want to be knight and samurai. Makes perfect sense.
Frankly, Iām not a fan of inviting the otherās family member without consulting first. but in fiction everything has this way of coming together in the end, eh? heh
Thank you so much! Iām glad you liked it š Yeah, Gold thought heād had a brainwave there. He believes that heās the only problem between Belle and Maurice, and itās a holiday and family shouldnāt be alone on holiday etc. So I think he imagines Belle will be happy about it, and pleased with him for reaching out and fixing it.
He meant well, he truly thought it was a nice gesture but yeah you are absolutely right, he should have asked Belle first, and Iām fairly certain she will make that clear to him. Somehow my fluff fic has developed plot, and backstory, and an unfortunate tendency towards angst which I usually fix with communication. Hopefully this little mishap will be as easily fixed ā¦
Does anyone have any prompts for I Love the Way? Especially anything thanksgiving related. Iām not an American and I donāt really know anything about thanksgiving. So please if you have any fluffy prompts throw them this way. I need another 1k to finish tomorrowās chapter and Iām stuck.
Gold would never have cooked a turkey for just him and Bae; itād be way too much food. But if Belleās going to spend the holiday with them, maybe she suggests cooking a small turkey? Baeās excitement at the idea gets him to agree. But turkeys are notoriously difficult to cook; theyāre either not done yet by dinnertime or theyāve overcooked and dried out horribly. You could have them dealing with that. Also, the traditional breaking of the wishbone! One person grabs hold of each end and pulls while wishing for something; whoever gets the larger piece when it breaks supposedly gets their wish.
Ooooh thatās a good prompt. Marie has helped me as well and the chapter has got way longer than I thought it was going to be heh š So Iāll use your prompt in the next chapter, if thatās alright. Thank you so much!
So, this season has been horrible for us and I know many of us are struggling out there. So letās do something about it. Letās show that this ship is ours and no one can take it away from us.
Letās have a fic-a-thon. I understand many of us are doing Rumbelle Secret Santa, so Iām not suggesting anything huge. Letās just write a little something or hold on an update for a fic and publish it on a specific date so we can all show how much we still love our favorite couple.
Some of you have suggested holding this Revolution for this Sunday. If this is agreeable, then we can do that. However, If others feel they want to have more time to write something, then suggest another date.
Letās take our ship back and show they are still out OTP!
#I can certainly hold off on posting chapter four of I Love the Way until Sunday#that has so much fluff it’s giving me a sugar rush writing it
Just in case anyone wondered what song I was talking about, in reference to the title of I Love the Way – itās this one. Like I said Iām showing my age heh and I really did think it fit The Right Wrong Number Belle and Gold.
