Marchie prompted: ‘Morraine comes to visit’
Bae doesn’t understand what has changed between Belle and his father, but Morraine seems to find it hysterically funny.
“I don’t understand why we have to hide,” he grumbles, as she pulls him down behind a bush to watch his father and stepmother, “They’re my family.”“He was the love of my life, once upon a time.”
Yeaah… I hope you liked the almost-fluffytimes of this chapter, cause I have a feeling things can only get worse from here on out.
Poor Rum.

i’m going to write erotica for very shy people
“s-should i take my shirt off?”
“oh, uh…no, no that’s fine…unless you really want to…”
“uh, do…you want me to?”
“well i mean…i dunno…”
…this is the Harmless sex scene, just fyi.
Just saying. These two have a lot of semi-awkward shy smut-not-smut scenes to get through.
In between the horrible soul-crushing plot, of course.

Rumpelstiltskin spends the rest of the day in a mindless, almost entirely unthinking daze.
She said yes.
To a question he hadn’t even really been asking. A woman he’d known two weeks, been almost-friends with for all of a few days… and now she is to be his wife.
Rumpelstiltskin: the only man to accidentally kiss his wife on his wedding day.
And then come thisclose to apologizing.
Poor Bae: this is his family

“You shouldn’t know anything about me.” Belle says, quietly, and for once everything she says is the truth, “It’s dangerous.”
He laughs, a low and broken sound, the hollow note of a man beyond fear and sadness and pain, too tired to do more than smile, “I’ve sheltered an apparent fugitive for the past fortnight. I think the ship has sailed on dangerous.”
Oh, Bae, you’re only trying to help and instead you get one of the most awkward conversations of your life. It’s hard being thirteen sometimes, isn’t it?
Just wait until your papa hears about this. You think this is uncomfortable…
Never change, you adorable fluffle-headed child.
Love, me.
Okay, y’know what?
I’m bored out of my mind. My hardest exams are behind me (AND I KICKED THEIR ASSES, BOOYAH!) so I’m finding it hard to focus on… well, pretty much anything.
Torn between writing more Harmless and digging out my textbook and doing more studying for tomorrow.
So come talk to me! I’ll fill more 3-sentence prompts, hear stories about your cat, just say hi… I must have at least a few followers I haven’t properly met yet, and plenty more dearies I know well and don’t speak to enough. Come bug me, the Gremlin is open for business.

Bae stares out of the window through most of his lesson. He’s interested in learning - papa cannot read, not really, and it’s useful for getting anywhere beyond the village - but he’s easily distracted, his mind on other things, these days.
Morraine’s mother, Mistress Maisie, says he’s away with the fairies. Papa says he has a head full of sawdust, but he smiles when he says it, and Bae knows he wishes he could read too.
It’s just more interesting today to look out of the window, to where papa and Rose talk by papa’s lanolin barrel, and watch them smiling at each other. They look like the older boys and girls used to, before the war took them, right before the village elders would have them married and children would come.

Bae follows her, the girl who slept on their floor, as she vanishes into the woods. He follows because she couldn’t walk yesterday, and for all her smiles she is scared as papa and weaker still.
Bae pretends that papa is strong enough to look after them, but Bae has stopped trying to lie and say that he’s not terrified as a rabbit in crosshairs. And it’s alright; it has to be. The world is a dark and scary place, and papa knows more of it than Bae does. He has his reasons to be so afraid.
But Bae knows a wounded animal when she sleeps three feet from his bed, and so he follows her into the woods.
READING THIS AS SOON AS I GET HOME FROM SCHOOL!
It’s sad, but I’m already wondering when the smut will show up.
We’re a long way off yet. Unless I decide to fade to black, it depends on how they feel when the time comes.
Or they might all die in chapter four, who the fuck knows.
(spoiler: they don’t all die in chapter four)

A/N: I’ve had this story in my head for months, and Marchie finally convinced (i.e: begged, pleaded and bullied) me to write it. So here goes: my second Big Damn AU.

Everything is quiet in the village.
More than quiet: silent. It’s the kind of calm emptiness that only comes when everyone is locked up tight, hiding their children by firelight and quietly – quieter than mice and tiny crawling insects – mourning their dead.
Rumpelstiltskin is no exception. He cowers, and feels little shame anymore in doing so, with Baelfire never out of his line of sight.
