My timeline doesn't have enough positive Stancy on it, so since I am sick at home in bed anyways I decided: be the change you want to see in the world!
So here are some random fluff ideas that I have been thinking about of things that I would love to see in Stancy fics. I may use them but feel free to steal if you feel inspired!
We know from s1/s2 that Steve likes to leave Nancy little notes. What if we see that habbit come back in later fics? Post reunion messages in their shared home. Post s5 pre epilogue letters being sent to Boston (Or not being sent if you want to get angsty about it). Maybe he starts leaving her notes during the s4-s5 break as a practical matter but because its the two of them it can't help but bring back old thoughts and feelings.
As a sweatergate truther I NEED Stancy matching pink outfits. It must exist in the universe.
this could be set anywhere in the timeline but I would love to see where one of them is reading aloud to the other and the listener just falls asleep because just being with the other is such a feeling of peace and safety.
I need more Stancy dancing together fics. Part of what is so great about them is how they relax around each other and actually get to be playful and happy. I don't care if its at a club, or prom, or randomly in a park at night, or at a holiday party, give me Stancy dancing
I love the popular headcanon that Steve is actually a pretty decent cook because he largely has had to fend for himself but also can be a bit of a snob so he learned to cook so he could have better food, but I would LOVE to see him trying to teach Nancy because she never cared enough to learn and also because screw the patriarchy (Even though everyone should honestly learn how to cook because it shouldn't be a gendered thing its a basic life skill) ((Also I feel like Nancy just would not have the patience to be a good cook. Eventually she has like 3-4 things that she can make perfectly but that have to be in a very exact way, no substitutions no variations and that is it. Everything else is always a complete disaster))
I need someone/somepeople (we are not exclusive here) To help me come up with a 'Missing Moment' catalogue. Things that we KNOW have to have happened but that are off screen to use as a drabble prompt guide. Things like- Holidays celebrated both while together and not. First conversation post break up. First conversation post the Jancy break up (Since the finale robbed us of any actual meaningful interactions) SOOOO many missing moments in season 4. Like... honestly such a treasure trove. (Why was that season so good???? And season five so.... sorry I digress)
Honestly just more Stancy dates. let them date!!!! That poor girl has been doing nothing but monster hunting for years with a boyfriend who thought emotional support is letting her cry her eyes out alone in a hospital bathroom. Can we please get her some flowers and nice dinners and just some good old fashioned romance?
Ooooo Stancy engagement. Is it planned? Is it spontaneous. Does it happen in front of others or just the two of them.
Does Nancy know about the Farah Fawcett spray? How does she find out. How does she help Steve with his devastation when he learns it is discontinued?
All the Stancy matchmaking. Do you really think Steve's army of children wouldn't be an absolute parent trap level menace if they thought they could help him win back the love of his life??? You know Max is not above locking them in a room and pretending there is no way to get them out for at LEAST a few hours.
Anyways that is a good start for now.
Will come back with more once the coughing subsides.
If anyone has any drabble prompt ideas please feel free to leave a comment or drop a note in the inbox. Yes I should be working on my larger fics but sometimes you just want a good drabble and I've always been better at delivering on other peoples requests than doing it for myself anyways.
