hi! i saw you recommended a lot of heartbreaking fics. do you also have some fluff/fun/humour favs to suggest to mend my heart? (or if its not your thing, or don't have the time, do you know someone who might?) ty!!
so you are sort of correct that fluff is not generally my thing. so i don’t promise that all of these are in the fluff category, because i’m not entirely sure i understand what constitutes fluff? but all these fics are, i think, light on angst (or if there’s angst present they are balanced with excellent humor). i hope you enjoy!!
#hiwhilebi by ms_scarlet (@mego42) - a fic where annie and rio get high together, watch schitt’s creek, and talk about how they both like the wine, not the label.
i’ve missed this by ms_scarlet - mick enjoys food, beth enjoys being drunk, and rio enjoys beth on his lap.
listening through the air shaft by ms_scarlet - outsider POVs on brio. nobody writes annie quite like @mego42 so this fic is just a true gem.
get to be mine by septiembre (@septiembur) - enemies to lovers to enemies to friends to fake dating! beth makes up a lie that rio’s her boyfriend, and rio’s willing to play along.
faith in their forever by @kenrune - ruby and stan have trouble getting pregnant. stan keeps the faith for the both of them.
teach me tonight by @riosnecktattoo - established relationship brio enjoy a sushi date—but beth feels like she’s gotta teach her man how to handle some chopsticks.
in your hands by riosnecktattoo - rio impresses beth with his skills in close-up magic.
one step at a time by natalia17 (@bethrio) - rio’s not sure he’s ready to send marcus to preschool—but he does sort of have a thing for the preschool teacher who is a master baker.
sliding into third by fortunehasgiven up (@fairhairedkings) - beth falls for college athlete rio with a very cute happily ever after.
down for the count by szra187 - beth watches rio box, and then he invites her out to eat.
my guess is an invisibility cloak would be great but obviously it must include a good sports bra to support the triple Ds
17. of all the fantasy races to ever exist, which one would you be?
i usually say mermaid bc my hair covers my nips and the city i was born used to be a sea, literally, but i think id make a good siren, too. luring men to their deaths? FUN
22. tell us, in detail, about a curse a witch would put on you.
being cursed with a lifetime of working on a never-ending thesis. and every sock i put on gets wet. also every cup of coffee being cold by the time i take the first sip. and my earbuds only work when i least long to listen to music. something like that?
34. if you could have any magical item, what would it be?
uhhhh what are my options????? WAIT I KNOW i want the pants from the sisterhood of traveling pants, not bc of the sisterhood but bc they always fit exactly right. id love me some exactly-right fitting jeans
i feel thoroughly ROMANCED thank you!!!!!!!! some very dreamy asks to help me procrastinate fic writing ty
Definitely the trio as a whole. I really love their bond and you can see that they’re really close and have been there for each other for such a long time. The moments where they show them leaning on each other, laughing, or crying together are some of the best in the show.
I would love to see more of those heartfelt moments in season 4, even better if they give us some more flashbacks of them when they’re younger! Maybe even some of when Annie is a teenager and the other two are just starting out their lives. Could you imagine young Ruby and Stan? it’d be so cute. Beth dealing with ridiculously wild Annie? Here for it. Also curious if Ruby and Annie couldn’t stand Dean from the get-go, I have a feeling they couldn’t lmao.
If we are referring to just a duo, I think Ruby and Beth because of their bond. The whole ‘hate you’ ‘hate your face’ thing they have is so sweet and you know that they’d do whatever they could for each other.
