Rumour Has It
Chapter 10
—-
They drove in silence most of the way, both happy not to force conversation. Belle, for her part, didn’t want to say any more: they’d already said far too much, and it was too easy, she felt, for them to slip right back in to the happy, friendly pattern they’d developed over the winter break. And that couldn’t be allowed to happen: that lead to tense conversations and hasty kisses and trouble, and the last thing Belle needed was trouble.
“How did you know?” she asked, finally, and Gold seemed to snap out of his own reverie to blink at her before his eyes snapped back to the road.

Title: Nightmares Are Curses Too (and so they too can be broken)
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Rumpelstiltskin has a nightmare, and Belle helps him through it. Post-2x04 with lots of spoilers for that, with one very minor spoiler for 2x06.
A gift for my twin, Iambicdearie, who thus far is making good on an important little deal of ours.

Killian Jones is Death, all black leather and smirking hauteur, and he holds a sword pressed to Rumpelstiltskin’s chest, ready to push forward. Ready to kill.
But it isn’t the pirate man or his blade that worry Rumpelstiltskin: indeed, he does not even feel the cold steel pressed to the flesh of his collarbone, almost breaking the skin, almost drawing blood. His eyes are fixed on the pair to the side, his wife and child, one in front and one behind, one with wide eyes and one with a knife.

Belle always looks where she’s going.
So it’s not an accident when, after hearing the ruckus between the other guest and the Queen in the hotel mid-afternoon, she is walking down the sidewalk and crashes headlong into the blonde woman she followed to this town.
Rum has been left in Red Riding Hood’s care. Belle tried not to laugh at the idea of leaving her dog in the hands of a former werewolf.
iambicdearie asked: Rumbelle Comic-con smut. Bonus points if you include mention of the OUAT cast being there through some dimension-shattering meta.
“We’re going to miss the… Once Upon A Time… panel.”
“You were the one who dragged us back here without a moment’s thought: if it’s anyone’s fault, dearie, then it’s clearly… yours…”

Bwahahaha 3sentences. Okay, the next ones will be. I forgot the rule, sorry.

Rumbelle - Belle’s hit by a magic spell and is slowly (painfully?) dying and there’s nothing Rumple can do because magic would only make it worse

Cora grabs Belle by her arms and hauled her in front, right as Regina’s curse sailed through the air. The purple beam drives through Belle’s chest with a sickening crack, striking the woman behind her and causing both to collapse to the floor.
Fic: Shaaame
iambicdearie prompted:
rumbelle and red cricket running into each other on their respective walks of shame
“Oh, hello, Miss Lucas.” Rumpelstiltskin almost crashes into the young woman on the sidewalk, “What ah, what brings you out at so early an hour?”
The sun has barely risen, and it is odd to see the girl without her usual make-up, her clothing a little disheveled and her hair unstyled.
Ficlet: Anytime you need me
Rumbelle hurt/comfort. Belle runs into Regina and it triggers her.
Rumpelstiltskin comes home to an empty house. He always did, before cursebreak, and the brief time Belle was with him was just that: brief. He lives alone, and his house is dark and quiet when he returns each evening.
It is, therefore, disconcerting when he returns to hear a soft sound coming from under the stairs. He pulls out his gun from the table by the door, expecting some ambush. He is not a lame old man, not anymore: he is Rumpelstiltskin, and even trying as he is to stop using so much magic in his everyday life, he will not be trifled with.
Fic: Harmless - Chapter 12
AU: Belle arrives, bruised and bleeding, on the doorstep of a lame spinner and his son. On the run from the war and its causes, her short stop-over becomes something else entirely.
A/N: Yes, it’s been over a month. And I’m sorry for that: real life took a turn for the insane and this fic is brain-eating enough that it got pushed aside. Anyway, again there are asterisks where any readers who dislike any kind of mature content can stop and start up again. Enjoy!

Harmless
Chapter 12
—-
On their last day in their home, Belle awakens to the sound of her family cooking downstairs. She is pleasantly drowsy as she pulls her boots back on and climbs down to the main room. She has a husband and a son waiting for her. That’s enough to ward off the twisting unease in her gut, and for a few minutes more she can forget that they’ll ever have to leave.
The conversation over breakfast is kept deliberately light, not touching on their immanent journey, on the scare of the morning nor the emotion shared. Nothing is said of anything more than the wool they have to sell at market, and the gossip Morraine passed on to Bae while they played together a few days before.
Anonymous asked: Will Harmless be updated soon?
YES. God, I am SO SORRY it is taking so long! I got blocked and with Uni and stress and anxiety attacks and dshjkshsjkdhdsskjhjsdshjjkdsdjhsdshjdsajhkdsjhdshjjsdajdj yeah. Sorry.

Rumour Has It
Chapter 9

“You’re going out with Motorcycle Boy?” Abigail raised an eyebrow, arms folded, and Belle turned from her perusal of her wardrobe to face her friend.
“August is a nice guy,” Belle corrected, “And we’re going out tonight, yes.”
“August Booth. The aforementioned Motorcycle Boy. Who, for the past year and a half, has been a douchebag on a massive scale to everyone we know. That guy?”
Fic: Valentine’s Day (2/2)
Title: Valentines Day (2/2) (Time of Day)
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Belle is dissatisfied come Valentines Day, and tries to fix things. They don’t go as expected.
So this took a week longer than expected, but here it is, and I’m fairly proud of how it came out. Part 1 is here.

He hadn’t been spying on her.
He had simply been bored, distracted, restless in his home. He could not focus, not on the books nor on his reading, nor on cooking his supper. He scalded himself on the pan and splashed boiling water over his hand from the kettle, and decided that perhaps reheating something from the refrigerator was the better option.
Finally, he has to go out, he cannot stay in his empty house.
Belle is on a date with another man.

Rumbelle - they read porn together ;)
This came out as a bit of an experiment, style-wise, so I’m not sure how well it works. Still, I like it, so whatever :)

“How did she-“
“I’m not entirely sure, dear, I’m more concerned with how he-“
“Yeah, uh, can yours do that?”
Ficlet: Not The Happy Ending
after the crocodile: they did more than just sleeping in the same bed together, belle is pregnant.

She hasn’t bled.
She asked Ruby about it when she first moved in, when she had the nerve and the other girl had made it clear that she was free to ask anything she needed. She’d had the - utterly marvellous, by the look of them - options for hygeine and comfort at that time explained to her, and was more than ready.
Except the blood never comes.
Could you do a rumbelle prompt where Belle accidentally comes across porn, and Rum has to explain it?
“Hey,” Rumpelstiltskin came into the Library, and Belle looked up with a smile.
“Hey,” she greeted, and went back to opening the new shipment she’d bought with Ruby’s internet and loaned credit card.
“New books?” he asked, and she nodded, happily, “I’m surprised they could get into town.”
Ficlet: Thorough
Ruby’s curiosity gets the better of her and asks Belle what Rum is like in bed.
“Okay, okay,” Ruby was grinning, excited, leaning over the bar as Belle took her seat, but Belle knew her friend: this was not a good time look. This was a be afraid look, “Tell me everything.”
“About what?” Belle asked, half-feigning confusion in the hopes her friend would be thrown off the scent. No such luck.
“You and Gold! Or Rumpelstiltskin or… I don’t know, but you and him.”
