“You are only gonna succeed as a competitive person if you’re a winner. You’re setting yourself up for failure if you’re competitive and mediocre. If you’re mediocre, you better damn well learn to be friendly and likable real quick if you wanna do well in life.”

Uncredited AU

Going to graduate school was supposed to be less stressful than your undergraduate degree; there’s fewer classes, you’re studying what you love rather than needless general courses, the professors are more chill, etc. That was supposed to be true, but the first month of graduate school led Characters A and B to believe that they had successfully found their academic arch nemesis: each other. 

In an attempt to one-up the other, both students chaotically attempt to gain as many undergraduate minors as possible before completing their masters degree. Why, you may ask? Well, these two idiots can’t stand to think the other can do something they can’t, even if that’s Beginner’s Russian, or Introduction to Music Theory, or that one weird class in the basement of the occult building that only had four students registered and a professor whose name they didn’t recognize and the syllabus is only one page and the course’s supplies include a dead rat and two paperclips--wait...

B knows, to some extent, that A doesn’t like them and is trying to compete with them. One day B beats A and is overjoyed and doesn’t make it much of a secret. Then B finds out that A had something bad happen to them (family death, the death of a pet, serious illness, kicked out of the house etc.) B feels terrible and after work/class asks A to talk and apologises. A starts crying and B comforts them. After that A leans on B for emotional support and B realises they’re falling in love with A. One night they both get drunk and end up sleeping together.

Harem reverse

(I am working through the backlog at the moment, so for anyone curious: REQUESTS ARE STILL CLOSED. But these are my requests from years ago, that I am finally answering now that life is marginally less bad.)

Person A is an assassin/hitman and is unaware that through their work, they’ve caused a lot of reapers to develop crushes on them. Now Person A’s moment of death is coming up and the various reapers, Person B+, are all trying to take a chance and making Person A fall for them so they can claim Person A’s soul when they die.

Person A is a firefighter who is frequently known for being reckless but blessed for getting in and out of very dangerous situations that their coworkers wouldn’t dare. What Person A is unaware of is that since they’ve been a pyromaniac since childhood, they’ve caught the eye of quite a few fire spirits/demons/etc. And those beings, Person B+, are keeping them safe from harm. One day, Person A gets themself in such a dangerous situations, that one of the spirits has to appear before them to get them out of it, and the rest take the opportunity to start approaching Person A in their daily life, to try to flirt with them.

Person A lives in a very artsy part of town and often goes jogging, walking their pet, gardening, and other outdoor activities that make them recognizable within their neighborhood, but is unaware of the various hermit artists who watch Person A from their windows and have been using Person A as their creative muse for some time. When Person A attends a local art gallery, they end up seeing some works that remind them of themself/that they relate too, and makes a comment to the artist, Person B, about how well they captured the moment (ex: a pet owner interacting with a pet, someone gardening, etc.) and how they must do that hobby themselves. Person B doesn’t want Person A to think they’re stalking them, but mentions they people watch for inspiration, but uses the conversation to try to befriend Person A for real. The other artists, also at the gallery, get jealous and also start trying to be more social and outdoorsy to get chances to interact with their muse, Person A.

Person A is a dragon, guarding an item that the governments of the world have realized is very dangerous and could be used as a weapon beyond anything else. Person B+ are the various actors each country sends to try to win over Person A, steal the item, coerce Person A into giving it to them, etc. Person A just doesn’t know why they’ve suddenly acquired a harem, but wants to make their harem happy and make it so they never want to leave.

Person A is a god of life and has immense healing and plant/animal powers. Person B+ are the biologists, doctors, and similar academic field researchers who are trying to convince Person A to help them with their research and/or let them research Person A. Person A gives them a set window to win them over and convince them, and invites them to one of their secluded homes for the competition. Person B+ quickly start to get sidetracked by finding a being of immense power who shares all their various nerdy interests though.

Halloween: Treat!

Person A enters a competition of sluttiest costume award for Halloween, not realizing the competition’s fine print says its for incubi/succubi/sex demons only, but when Person A wins, it causes an uproar within the sex demon community. Person B is one of the judges who is trying to smooth things over and mediate between Person A and give them their prize with as least hassle and messiness as possible.
