Fic: Off The Path; Into The Dark
Title: Off The Path; Into The Dark
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Ruby/Gold (NOT Red/Rumpelstiltskin)
Summary: Ruby’s hot and Gold is bored, and it’s all too easy to lure a girl from the path and into the woods. What if Ruby really was Little Red Riding Hood, and Gold was the wolf? Set in Storybrooke, pre-season 1.
A/N: this is a birthday present for my glorious dragonmama Marchie. Redgold is an idea we’ve been playing with for a while, so I thought it was a fitting gift.

The first time it happens, it’s most definitely his fault.
She’s only twenty, after all, and a waitress. She barely graduated high school, for God’s sake, and she’s not known for her responsible decision-making. Ruby can’t be faulted for being left alone with an attractive older man, with his sly smiles and gleaming eyes. No one blamed Red Riding Hood, after all, for getting caught by the wolf.
greenisafriend asked: red cricket, shopping for condoms :D
Archie looked at the box in Ruby’s hands, and flushed as red as her namesake, “Nothing cherry flavored,” he stipulated, “Or flavored at all, really, or… definitely not glow in the dark, no!”
She put down the bright red package with a sigh, and moved them quickly down the aisle to where the boring, normal packets of Trojan awaited them, “I’m buying the cherry ones,” she whispered, “And then we’re going to go home, you’re going to get drunk, I’m going to get on my knees, and you’re going to be very glad I know what’s best.”
He swallowed hard and nodded, and she laughed, wickedly, pressing a hot kiss to his lips and depositing the boxes into their basket: he always agreed with her, when she phrased things right.
Fic: Visiting Hours
Title: Visiting Hours
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Everyone’s been locked away at some point, and everyone’s had a visitor. Or what happens when the people of the Enchanted Forest can no longer run from their personal ghosts.
A/N: So this is a thank you to my 800 followers, because holy hell I have no idea how that happened but I LOVE YOU ALL.

They are to move to the King’s palace in the morning. Regina’s mother sleeps, beside her sleeping father; her new step-daughter sleeps; her future husband sleeps. Everyone sleeps, and Regina wonders how.
She can barely close her eyes for memories and they bring tears and a tearing, bleeding gash where her heart should be. Every moment she tries to sleep, she hears that terrible, choking, gasping noise her mother tore from Daniel’s throat, as she ripped the heart from his poor shaking chest and crushed it to ashes. She hears not her own screaming, nor her mother’s stern admonishments. She hears only choke, gasp, thud, silence.
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.
Fic: No time like the present
Hmmm, never prompted you some Red Cricket so, yeah, Red Cricket - family fluff
Archie - he’s not Jiminy, not anymore, no more than Ruby is simply Red, and he’s glad of that every day - is well aware of how predictable the anger of a son toward his father is. He should have been prepared, he thinks, as he dodges another flying chipolata sausage, for the wrath of his child.
And yet, it still takes him by surprise. Ben has a good arm on him - Archie is oddly proud of that: he takes after his mother’s athleticism, apparently - and he almost nails his father between the eyes with his next throw.
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.”
Ficlet: Just A Taste
Belle and food from storybrooke
Belle was always a girl with a healthy appetite. She ate her scones with jam and cream, her bread with a nice slathering of butter, and didn’t skimp on portions at dinner. Food was one thing she had always enjoyed, and her small memories of the asylum beneath the hospital told her she was long overdue for a good meal.
Fic: Rumour Has It - Chapter 4
AU: Because of one little lie, everyone at Storybrooke University now thinks that Belle Charmin is sleeping around, and Professor Gold, the only guy who seems to believe her innocence, is totally off limits. Easy A!AU.

It was, by the way. Worst idea ever. I’d gone from fake-slut to fake-prostitute in one moment of weakness, and even now I’m willing to blame Jefferson Madden’s puppy-eyes for everything that happened next. Bastard.
Abbie was having a party at her boyfriend’s place that weekend, and I’d been invited along with pretty much everyone else she knew. Abbie is still quiet, kind, blonde and bright in that way you can’t even dislike. She’s popular, and always will be, because she’s someone you genuinely want good things for. You can’t help it.

Rumour Has It
Chapter 2

Regina had heard of me: I was famous, and in some ways I still am. And this was even before the real acceleration started, when I was just one of many girls on campus known for somewhat… easy virtue.
I was, I think the first girl she’d ever spoken to like that who gave the same kind of treatment right back. I just refuse to be spoken to like I’m nothing, especially from judgemental bitches who don’t know a thing about me, my life, or what I do in my free time.
Fic: Rumour Has It - Chapter 1

AN: Okay, so this is entirely Marchie’s fault. She asked for a college!AU inspired by the 2010 movie Easy A. However: while watching the movie is a wonderful and entirely hilarious use of your time, prior knowledge of the plot shouldn’t be vital for understanding this fic. It also deviates from the canon plot at several points, so it’s not a carbon copy of the movie itself.

Rumour Has It
Chapter 1
——-
Just to set the record straight: I have only ever had sex with one person.
Ironically, that’s the one relationship no one actually knows about.
This isn’t a diary: my diary is sat across the room, staring at me accusingly. It knows I’m cheating on it with this. It can get in back of the line of people ready to accuse me of whoring around.
