One Of The Reasons I Love You

After a long cycle of album/tour/album/tour/album/tour John is finally at home for a while and is determined to protect his family's privacy at all costs by doing DIY that they could easily afford for someone else to come and do. But John is a stubborn man and it's one of the many reasons why Veronica loves him...

"This is my final piece for the Johnica 2025 event and based on the prompt 'hurt and comfort'. Thank you so much to Ra_chelB for hosting this event, I hope everyone has enjoyed all the new stories posted by Johnica writers these last few days!"

This fic is part of the "It's a Long Hard Fight" universe but it's not strictly tied to the main fic. You can read it as standalone!

*nuzzle* 💕 Happy birthday Veronica Deacon! 👑

It's the 2nd time that for Veronica's birthday I redraw the photo of John and Veronica at John's birthday party, but it's just so sweet and I love to give it new life, imagining more cute interactions between them 🥰 I hope you'll like this!

Please do not repost! Reblogs and comments are welcomed 💕

"John takes his wife to an expensive spa and hotel with plans to spoil her rotten, but little does he know that Veronica is worrying that childbirth has made her less attractive to him..."

"This is my Day 3 offering for the Johnica 2025 event and this one is again perhaps a little on the loose side when it comes to the prompt I've chosen. The prompt is 'spoiling each other rotten', but it's mainly John trying to spoil his wife and showing how much he loves her... :) Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!"

Hi folks! I apologise for my absence but it's been quite a week and I could barely open AO3 to finish reading and commenting.

I'll make more posts for the remaining fics and start working on the masterlist in the next few days 🙏🏻 I still have a fic myself to finish 😅 and I remind to everyone that the Johnica week collection will stay open so if you have late entries you can join whenever you want 🥰 just tag me here on tumblr and/or send the request to the ao3 collection!

You've Always Been My Strength

It's a day that John knew would always come, but now it is time to face something that he's been dreading for some time. Thankfully, he has Veronica by his side and he knows that he can face anything, as long as she's by his side.

This is my offering for Day 2 of the Johnica 2025 event and I have to admit that my take on the prompt 'Facing a scary challenge together' is a little on the loose side, but hopefully you'll enjoy it...

Money Doesn't Buy You Happiness

John is stuck in Japan touring with Queen and he and Veronica's wedding anniversary is fast approaching. Having enough of his bandmate's moping, Roger drags John out for a walk and it might be just the thing to cheer John up...even if he doesn't know it yet.

For Day 1 of the 2025 Johnica event, I've used the Day 1 prompts of 'violets' and 'money doesn't by happiness'.

Words: 2137 || Chapters: 1 (of 1)

All of the stories I'll be posting over the next four days are based in the 'It's a Long Hard Fight' universe and so if you haven't read that, some of the stories might not make sense.* Hopefully you'll enjoy these little oneshots anyway!

*note from the event's organiser: I personally find this fic very easy to understand even if you haven't read the main one!

The Invisible Man

“I just come up here sometimes, to get away from it all. The world can be.. A lot.” He chuckled, looking down at all the seats in the theater, now the size of pinpricks. “But we can see it all from here. Every inch of it. I feel like a king or something.”

She slowly inched her hand closer to John's, gazing intently into his eyes. John laughed, moving his hand onto hers.

“And that would make me the Queen, I guess”. __ John Deacon is known for being invisible, and most of the time, that's a good thing, as working behind the scenes means that you have to disappear and let your work shine through the displays, but sometimes it can be a bit lonely.

Prompt used: First meeting in an Alternative Universe

Did he really have to resort to this? Moving closer to the desk, John gestured to the “Instrument” case on his back and whispered in a low, threatening voice.

“Do you think that anyone in Chicago actually carries a guitar in these things?” Trembling, the concierge handed him the key.

John was a family man by day, Sniper by night; at least until early morning, when the two are forced to collide.

My first entry for @johnica-weeks 2025! I have a couple more fics but I'm awfully busy so be patient please 🙏🏻💕

A Civil War had recently started in the nation of Inazuma, where the Shogunate ordered to get all Visions confiscated from people who own them. Luckily, John doesn't have one, but her beloved Veronica might be in danger while he's out for work.

This tackles my Genshin Impact x Queen crossover and it's a backstory for John. I hope it's still easy to understand for non-players as well!

Prompts: A precious photo, always kept close to the heart. (kind of), Facing a scary challenge together, First meeting in an Alternative Universe (also kind of).

It’s my favourite couple’s 5 decade anniversary <3 😼

So I drew something for them

I’m not really active on here but I felt like I needed to show this amazing person my artwork @eileen-crys , I’m quite shy making me not good at speeches but I hope you enjoy this 😓

I would really like queen fans to see this so you can reblog or share but please don’t repost !! :)

I hope they’re doing okay together 🫶❤️‍🩹

Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary to John and Veronica Deacon 🥂🥹💖

[eileen-crys]

Happy 50th Wedding anniversary to John and Veronica Deacon! 🥰💕💕💕

In such a busy time and in a moment in which I feel so slow at drawing, I managed to make my annual drawing for their anniversary 💖 I know, probably it's not that grand, especially for their 50th anniversary, but I still poured all my heart on this and I hope you'll like it! 🥺💕 Also I'm very happy of finally having drawn John in his real 1971 hairstyle, still quite short and growing! 🤭✨️ This is the hairstyle in which he joined Queen and also met Veronica so I HAD to draw it! Unfortunately we still have no photos of Veronica in the 70s, bear with me hahah 😅 This time I also wanted to give her a more wintery wedding dress, with a jacket with fur to put on.

Little fun fact: for the central pose I took inspiration from a 70s comic panel of Doctor Strange with his wife Clea, which are my other favourite couple 💜

Please do not repost or trace or feed to m4ch1ne learn1ng, thanks! Reblogs and comments are welcomed 💜
