Ho F-ing Ho (Rated M) [Memori]
Written by @thedefinitionofendgame for @sailawaymayday. The four assigned tropes were 1) Road trip, 2) Friends make a bet, 3) The characters play a game, and 4) Poorly timed confession
Summary: The friend group (consisting of Clarke, Wells, Raven, Murphy, Emori and Anya) go on a holiday road trip and celebrate the highs and lows of their lives thus far.
be my fire in the cold (Rated T) [Bellarke]
Written by @justbecauseyoubelievesomething for @queen-of-the-wallflowers15. The four assigned tropes were 1) Accidental marriage, 2) Sweater Weather, 3) Fake Dating, and 4) Only one bed
Summary: Bellamy jerks in surprise and something tightens around her wrist and forearm. A length of red cord, intricately woven around their joined wrists and up each of their arms. A cord that Clarke has grown used to seeing at Grounder ceremonies. Very specific Grounder ceremonies.
She closes her eyes, trying to ignore the way her stomach is churning. “Bellamy… I think we’re married.”
Coming Home (Rated M) [Memori]
Written by @northernxstories for @thedefinitionofendgame. The four assigned tropes were 1) Fake Not Dating, 2) Secret Santa, 3) Friendsgiving, and 4) Friends Make a Bet
Summary: Merry Christmas from your Secret Santa - Troped Style.
Ornamental Parts of Love (Rated M) [Raven/Anya]
Written by @sailawaymayday for @dylanobrienisbatman. The four assigned tropes were 1) Enemies to lovers but they didn’t know they were enemies, 2) assassin/hired gun, 3) Out of place intro, and 4) All i want for christmas is you
Summary: Raven is a modern day Robin Hood, but what happens when she is a target for a hired gun…who also happens to be the girl she is sort of dating?
We’ll Find Out in the New Morning (Rated G) [Gen Fic]
Written by @kinetic-elaboration for @justbecauseyoubelievesomething. The four assigned tropes were 1) found family, 2) gift giving, 3) forehead kiss, and 4) caught in a snowstorm
Summary: Seven strangers accidentally book the same secluded cabin in the woods for Christmas. When a snowstorm strands them there overnight, without electricity or heat, they form new friendships, and new bonds that start to feel like family ties.
Stop This World (For Five Minutes) (Rated T) [Echoven]
WRITTEN by @wwjacksparrowd for @spacekrulesbians. The four assigned tropes were 1) Person A calls Person B a sweet nickname in a language Person B doesn’t understand until one day when they reveal it to them, 2) Snowed In, 3) ship making eye contact during vows at a wedding that isn’t their own, and 4) poorly timed confession
Summary: Echo’s always been better off on her own. That’s why she became a federal air marshal: specifically so she could never stay in one place long enough to make friends. She doesn’t want friends. She doesn’t want family. She just wants to be left alone.
(If she tells herself that enough times, surely she’ll believe it.)
Of course, that plan didn’t account for getting trapped in a grounded airplane for three days with six people who are already dangerously close to her and weirdly determined to get closer, and it definitely didn’t account for Raven Reyes.
i can weather the storm (Rated M) [Raven/Echo/Emori/Murphy/Bellamy]
Written by @spacekrulesbians for @northernxstories . The four assigned tropes were 1) Faking a relationship for the holidays, 2) Bed sharing, 3) Meet the family, and 4) Forehead kisses
Summary: “I’m so sorry, Rae.”
It’s only a week until Christmas. Raven’s been excited about bringing Echo home to meet her father for weeks; she even told him she was bringing her girlfriend to meet him.
or: Raven and Echo each take a fake date home for Christmas, but everyone seems to have a connection to Raven
hihintayin kita (Rated T) [Murven]
Written by @andthelightbulbclicks for @hopskipaway. The four assigned tropes were 1) Friends to Lovers, 2) Person A calls Person B a sweet nickname in a language Person B doesn’t understand until it is revealed, 3) Everyone knows but them, and 4) Masquerade Ball
Summary: Mahal ko. My love.
John Murphy knew he seriously messed up when he said those words to his best friend. Yes, he’s in love with her. But he doesn’t plan on telling her like that. He doesn’t plan on telling her at all.
And as a man who prides himself on little else, he’s always someone who has told the truth. But as the lies build, he finds himself at risk of losing Raven entirely.
maybe it’s much too early in the game (Rated T) [Murven]
Written by @hopskipaway for @kinetic-elaboration. The four assigned tropes were 1) Farmer's Market AU, 2) Meet the Family, 3) Christmas Tree Lighting, and 4) Band AU.
Summary: The (hopefully) up-and-coming band, Arkadia, find themselves stuck in the middle of nowhere right before Christmas.
It’s all a bit Virgin Mary for them, but luckily an old friend (with a very appealing knack for stage lighting) lives nearby.
We''ll Be Home For The Holidays (Rated E) [Octavia/Murphy]
Written by @queen-of-the-wallflowers15 for @probably-voldemort. The four assigned tropes were 1) character discovers they are not human, 2) kissing to keep a secret/cover, 3) endless winter, and 4) fakes exes.
Summary: With Christmas approaching and Bellamy and Clarke making plans to move the pack, Murphy had been instructed to find Octavia and bring her home.
A tip leads him to a snow covered, trapped in an endless winter mountain where rumor has it is not only home to an abominable snowman but to one brunette shifter- Octavia Blake.
You're the only one who makes me (Rated T) [Wells/Raven]
Written by @dylanobrienisbatman for @andthelightbulbclicks. The four assigned tropes were 1) Royalty AU, 2) Caught in a Snowstorm, 3) Courting, and 4) Body Painting.
Summary: Princess Raven of Sky Mountain has been searching for a match for a long time. She had rebelled, of course, but she was ready now, to try to find the right heir to marry. A promise to her father, one that she intends to keep, no matter how difficult it had proven to be. How was it possible that every suitor was someone less interesting than the last?
Maybe getting lost in a blizzard was just what she needed to solve all of her troubles.
