#excerpt requests

[weasleys-wizard-writes]

Hi! I’m glad you’re back! I was wondering if I could request excerpts from When We Live and/or As You Need Me? Thank you so much!

Absolutely! :)

When We Live: 

“I don’t want to wait anymore, George.”

Slowly, as if trying to give himself more time to think about what you had said to him, your boyfriend turned his head towards you, quill still in hand, poised to write on the herbology homework in front of him.

“Don’t want to wait for what, love?” He asked calmly, looking deep into your eyes as if searching for the answer there, his head tilted ever so slightly to convey his interest in what you had to say.

“To live.” You let out a sigh after speaking, clasping your hands together beneath your waist and looking down at them intently as if asking your fingers for advice on what to say next. They had nothing to say to you. “I don’t want to wait to live anymore. I want all of this limbo to be over. I want to live.”

As You Need Me: 

This day of the year was never an easy day for George, in fact, it was never really an easy day for any member of the Weasley family. Five years ago on this very day, Frederick Gideon Weasley went to fight in a war that he would not survive, leaving his friends and family to mourn him for years to come. Everybody who knew Fred took the news of his death hard, but no one took it harder than George. It had taken you six months to get him to leave the room he had once shared with his brother, and another year after that for you to get him to open his shop again. And even now, five years later, there were still many things that George needed to work on in order to truly feel whole again. But there isn’t a person out there who wouldn’t say that he was doing much better than before. All week you had been preparing for this day, for how hard it would be on your boyfriend, and how hard it would be for his family (whom the two of you were planning on visiting for lunch later on in the day) as well. You had expected it would take a great deal of effort to get George out of bed, and even more to get him to actually get ready for his day. But to your surprise when you woke up you were alone in bed.

if anyone hasn't requested it already could we see an excerpt form the to lose a lost lover fic??? Thanks!

Sure thing, Anon! 

One of the craziest things about life is the path to death. The fact that one singular decision can decide not only when but also how someone will die. Your singular decision was made when you were only seven years old and decided it was high time you made a new friend. A best friend. At that time you had absolutely no idea that in that best friend you would find both a reason to live as well as a reason to die.

You met Charlie Weasley on a bright and sunny day in the summer of 1979. It was dreadfully hot outside, and the disgustingly warm weather had drawn both your small family of four as well as Charlie’s large family of nine to a fairly popular beach, that on this particular day was packed full of witches and wizards of all ages. Your family, which consisted only of yourself, your older sister Mia, your father, and your mother, had arrived early enough in the morning to find a fairly nice spot to set up your things, something not many other families had thought to do. This, of course, led to people rushing in once the heat started to become less and less bearable inside of their homes. Before you knew it everyone on the beach was packed close together like sardines in a can, your family remaining far enough off to the side to just barely be out of the large crowd. This changed with the arrival of a small boy who looked to be about your age, who ran up into the beach area before looking around incredulously, his eyes wide with surprise.

Hey! Could I request an excerpt from the losing game? Thank youuu ♥️

Of course, I hope you enjoy it! :) 

 “I love you” 

 The words hang heavy in the air as they’re spoken, and you have to remind yourself not to look at the man who said them to you because if you did you would surely bend again. And you could not afford to bend anymore. 

 “I know you do, Charlie.” 

Your voice was calm as you spoke but there was a sea of emotions all caught up in a storm tossing and turning within you. There was anger and anguish and above all else fear, a sickening kind of fear that made your stomach turn and your skin crawl. You hated this. There was so little you wouldn’t give for it to all be a dream. For it to be over. But that couldn’t happen until you put it all behind you, faced it head-on and let it die once and for all. There was no other option for you.

Fic Excerpt Requests

Hi again! 

As I mentioned in my last post I’m going to start a new temporary activity in order to gauge what people want to see as well as get everyone excited for what’s to come. Basically what I’m planning to do here is give you all a list of the fics that I’m working on and allow people to request an excerpt from each fic. Depending on the length of the fic and how much I’ve completed of it so far I may only allow one excerpt request per fic, but don’t worry about requesting something that someone has already requested, I’m going to be coming back to edit this post and let people know if requests on each individual fic are still open are not. And as I stated above it’s possible that more than one excerpt can be posted depending on how long the fic is, so even if you see an excerpt posted feel free to check back here to see if it’s possible for another to be posted as well. These excerpts will range in length but the point of them is to show everyone what’s to come. 

Here’s how to request a fic excerpt!

Look at the fic list (listed below) to see what the names of the fics are, their genres, and who they’re about. From there pick one that you’re interested in learning more about! 

Check the fic excerpt list (listed below) to ensure that the fic you want to request an excerpt from hasn’t been closed for excerpts for the time being (The word {closed} will be posted next to the fic when excerpts are closed for it). 

Send a request to my inbox simply stating something simple such as “Can I see an excerpt from *insert fic title here* please?” and then I’ll post the excerpt via answering this ask! 

Now without further ado, here is the list of fics in my drafts that you can request excerpts from while I work to complete them 

The Losing Game - Charlie Weasley x Reader - Angst 

When We Live - George Weasley x Reader - Fluff {Closed} POSTED!!!

True Love Never Waits - Charlie Weasley x Reader - Fluff 

Reunited - Fred Weasley x Reader - Fluff 

As You Need Me - George Weasley x Reader - Fluff, NSFW {Closed}

To Lose a Lost Lover - Charlie Weasley x Reader - Angst 

We Stood in the Sun (Before It Exploded) - George Weasley x Reader - Angst, NSFW (This is the first part of the 1,000 follower celebration series) POSTED!!!

Hey! If possible could I request an excerpt from we stood in the sun before it exploded?

Sure thing, I hope you enjoy :)

The price of victory had been much higher for some than it had been for others, that was one indisputable fact that was the same in every war everywhere. You stayed with George until you were gently called away by your superior, who was scrambling to find anyone who could help heal the injured who had yet to be tended to. George didn’t say a word as you slowly stood up, and when you glanced back over your shoulder he was still sitting in the same spot, staring at the ground, his hands clasped together tightly as if he were trying desperately to hold pieces of himself together.
