the truth is hiding in your eyes (how did we get here)

“You got a pretty face for a wolf,”

His gaze fleets towards the source. Peter scowls at the neutral expression and wonders if he has deliberately concealed his sharp ends. “You’re a fucking creep.”

In which, Roman is Edward and Peter is Bella. A reimagined of Hemlock Grove in Twilight Saga’s plots and settings.

jayce talis’ “goodbye? viktor, you’re my partner,” or roman godfrey’s “it was stupid, i’m an asshole, i’m sorry, okay. but think about what you’re doing. you can’t walk away over some stupid thing like that, you can’t walk away from this,”

forest witch (wife) roman who initially was dead because he killed himself (everything happening similar to what we see in season one but peter dated roman from the beginning and roman wasn’t an upir) and peter can’t take the reality of losing his boyfriend, had performed some kind of necromancy (and also the forest in hemlock grove here was a character in its own) and begged for the forest to help him to bring roman back to life

[nature-chews]

[…] roman would be disturbed at the realization that peter brought him back to life but he saw how absolutely broken peter was when he explained the whole thing. the forest itself adored peter as he/the wolf was a guardian. codependency ensued. peter who was traumatized by the sight and the fact that he had let his wife died; roman who couldn’t live without peter (roman and the forest had melded, both loved and adored peter)

AU in which roman has a twin, romeo godfrey. a more introverted sibling. quiet like his baby sister but his love is loud, wears it on his sleeves like his twin brother.

separated at birth, romeo was given a name by olivia right after his birth. he was handed to pryce to be disposed, killed, for he had no purpose; he didn’t have the veil over his head like his twin brother. he was not an upir.

but pryce decided to keep him out of pity, out of his own loneliness and longing of wanting to be a father. for once he wanted to be selfish, so he kept him and raised the boy in his house like his own; taught him to be guarded at all times, cunning and intelligent. romeo knew of his origin, of the white tower, of his own tragic history, the unwanted son; of his biological father and mother—his biological siblings. pryce knew better to not keep the boy in the dark, knew how unfair it would be, and gave him the freedom to roam the town if he wanted to as long as he was all covered up and careful. romeo rarely did, though. he was comfortable in the library, only ever tasted the world outside when he craved the fresh air.

i wanted to explore more on this, on how roman would react once he found out or how peter would react. i’ve written a fic inspired by this AU which you can check here is it worth the pain for now? is it worth it to find out?

[romanicism]

to celebrate ethel cain's new album perverts, i decided to write a romanpeter fic (kind of inspired by it) ! please do read tags first since this fic is so different than the one i usually wrote

shame is sharp (and my skin gives so easy)

Summary: He snaps his teeth playfully, teeth glinting with promise and want. “I could eat you up,” he pants into his mouth. An act of devotion in their language.

okay this is probably a gonna be a stupid rant/analysis but i can’t stop thinking about roman godfrey and motherhood. something something how his “dad” blew his head off when he was young, how his mother literally abused him, and how his biological dad didn’t want to consider him as his son. when i told you he was lonely: he was indeed lonely. his friends were only his cousin and his sister.

how he grew up with women throughout his whole life (his cousin, his mother and his sister)

which consequently, in a way, he was more familiar with motherhood than fatherhood—made him a little too sensitive. his understanding about love was a bit crooked but he was tender nonetheless especially towards his cousin and sister (though, again, still a bit ‘fucked up’ but the love was there)

something something motherhood and the fear of watching your daughter becoming what you are. his genuine fear of knowing that she had powers and she was just like him

something something motherhood and how roman holding his baby close, so tender. i love how she grasps his chest as if she wants that skin to skin touch/bonding

something something motherhood and his own unresolved trauma and how it would still be considered as a generational trauma with how olivia passed it down to roman and roman to nadia. a never ending cycle. something something motherhood and seeing a piece of yourself looking back at you

[romanicism]

and when i told you that peter was right when he said “she (nadia) will hate you” because that is the cycle! just like how roman hated olivia. the cycle keeps fucking going. a child hating their mother! nadia (the child) will hate roman (the mother) when she all grew up just like how roman hated olivia unless roman breaks the damn cycle

genuinely in need of serious talk about roman and his trauma. roman and his mommy issues! roman and his abandonment issue! and his bpd ass! roman being a victim because there’s no way olivia doesn’t abuse him sexually (especially after s1ep13), mentally and psychically! roman and “abused becomes the abuser”! oh my fucking GOD
