Scared, Partner?

Rival 2, smirking, staring right into their eyes: Are you scared?

Rival 1, glaring right back: Why do you keep asking questions you already know the answer to?

Rival 2: *pleased, widening their grin*

Rival 1: You know, I think it’s really rude of you, that you know more about me that I do about you. It’s weird. I usually know more about my partner than they do about me.

Rival 2 , raising an eyebrow: Partner ?

Rival 1: Conversation partner. Don’t start getting delusional on me now.

Rival 2 , leaning back again: Sure. My deepest apologies. And for the record: You can ask me any question you want….partner.

heres a thing i made based off of @crookedheron ‘s rival au render… i love all of their art and renders this one just plagued my mind until i drew it

Rivals to lovers au where Kokichi is salty cause everyone loves Shuichi and thinks his personality is so sweet and endearing, but all Kokichi sees is this boring blank Mr.Perfect™ personality and he doesn't get why people like it so much

they end up becoming rivals cause Kokichi starts to pick fights with Shuichi where he challanges him to prove himself more interesting, and Shuichi only accepts if Kokichi tries to out-do him. they end up spending most of the school year trying out-surpise the other

at some point in time Kokichi ends up eating his words when he relaizes that no only is Shuichi far from boring, but also checked off alot of Kokichi's attractive criteria . He absolutly panicks when he realizes he's fallen in love with the same guy he was being petty and hating on at the begining of the year for being boring- because he turned out to be interesting as hell. And suddenly what he'd been doing has dawned on him

Kokichi ends up feeling like shit after realizing he's an absolute petty jerk for attacking this one guy minding his buiness cause he though he was annoyingly boring, then turns around and falls for him when he found out he's not boring. He does his best to keep this new feelings for him hidden, knowing Shuichi wouldn't be interested in dating him after he caused him so much shit. He doesn't even bother to try making a truce or to become friends, he just backed off and stopped messing with him.

Where Kokichi though Shuichi would be relieved he was free from Kokichi's petty shit, he descovered quite the opposite responce instead- he really was alot more interesting than he thought. Shuichi confronted him as soon a he realized Kokichi backed off, asking him if he was feeling okay- almost as if he assumed it was just a game and this wasn't driven by Kokichi's ill will. Kokichi didn't give him an honest answer immediatly, but Shuichi was presistent on getting the truth from him

He eventually got tired and asked Shuichi why he even cared, he was free from Kokichi's constant mockery and pressure, so shouldn't he just take it instead of comforting who was essintally a bully? Shuichi confused, explained he never saw it as bullying, he just saw a chance to have fun with a little rivialry to spice up his normal school life- which even he felt was too bland- and took it. Kokichi was absolutly blindsighted by the concept of Shuichi enjoying their rivalry, and had to admit he'd be doing it out of ill will, not fun.

Shuichi didn't care, even though Kokichi had bad intent Shuichi wasn't hurt by it- quite the opposite. he then presisted to ask why Kokichi was so upset, if he was doing it out of ill will why does Shuichi's opinion matter? Kokichi- refusesing to admit any romantic feelings- simply stated he realized how stupid petty he was being and wanted to stop cause it was fucked up to bully someone for just existing.

Feeling bad, Shuichi offered to change their rivalry up. He likes the rivalry, but Kokichi hated the intent, so why don't they start doing it as a friendly challenge thing. it sounded alot better to Kokichi than what had been happening, it also meant he had a chance to be friends with him and right the wrongs he'd made.

of course though, that friendship goes down the path of romance, alot quicker than you'd expect. Kokichi went into this fully expecting to never leave the friend zone, but once again Mr.Perfect™ surpised him once more and managed to trick him out on a kinda date. It wasn't offical, but they went out together and did alot of stuff you'd expect to happen on a real date- sans the kisses and exclamations of love.

Kokichi asked him jokingly during it why he was taking him out on a date and got the shockingly bold responce "it's not a date, but i wouldn't mind going on one with you some time" Shuichi immediatly backing off in panic after registering what he just said. After that they ended up having to talk it out over a coffee and snacks at Shuichi's place to sort these now very clear feelings between them.

2 Cuphead AU Ideas: Reaper vs Rival

Hello hello. As you can see by the title, I’ve a couple of pretty sad Cuphead AU ideas that I wanna develop and I wanna see what thoughts people might have on them. Goodness knows it’s eating me to keep it to myself. XP

Edit: This blog will now be an ask blog for the Rival Route; however, Reaper Route will be available on AO3 as a collection of oneshots and short works. Looking forward to developing both over time!

You can read the thing that started it all here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/37288384/chapters/93040348#workskin

Info on Reaper and Rival Routes below

Warning: cliché

Common Premise: Mugman loses his soul to the Devil, who finds Cuphead’s despair over this so satisfying that he decides to roll with it (Stickler won’t be happy, but seeing as the bros are twins, he has to accept the idea of substitution).

The AUs branch from there into different versions of collector!Cuphead.

Reaper Route: Cuphead somehow convinces the Devil to let him become his soul reaper in order to eventually earn Mugsy’s soul back. It’s a bit of a sucker’s deal, though, seeing as the demon workers have to work for thousands of years without breaks. Cuphead, of course, is not all that honorable himself. He’s growing his own power to combat his boss and, on the side, is trying to find where Mugman is being kept so they could break out together.

Rival Route: Years after that fateful day, Cuphead has grown to become a lord in the Underworld, amassing a wealth in souls said to someday rival the Devil’s. Of course, the only reason he has that many still is because the Devil refuses to sell him the one thing he wants most, so he keeps collecting. However, this current order of things will end someday: either the offering will become too irresistible for the Devil, or Cuphead will gain enough power to have the confidence to try taking it all by force.

Which one will be relegated to only sketches and which one is more likely to be fully realized? I dunno, but if you made it this far, thank you for your time.

Hello the hinny connoisseur! Do u have any fic similar to *The Potters and The Weasleys* by @goodlife23. Where The potter or weasley are rivals or have any kind of family feuds. It would also be ok if u rec fics where only Ginny and Harry are the rivals. Thank you again for ur great work to this fandom.

Ahh, I haven't heard that nickname in ages, haha! Thanks for the reminder to read the latest chapter of The Potters and The Weasleys by @goodlifewrites​ and thank you for your kind words! As always, my recs are just my personal preferences. I enjoy sharing fics that have touched me and am glad it can help other Hinny readers find new stories.

I've rec'ed one particular rival AU that holds my heart here. Following that post, I received two recs that I haven't read yet to share as well:

Fuck soulmate AUs. Gimme rival AUs.

I want a red string attached to my heart that leads me to the person who’s life I need to professionally fuck up.

give me a coffee shop au where two people meet eyes at separate tables and immediately jump into hand-to-hand combat.

I need permanent black spots where my rival throws the first punch.

I will die for an au where whatever you write on your skin shows up on your rival’s skin, so everybody has arms covered with “Fuck you”s, “you suck”s, and crudely doodled penises.

Or, or, that one au where you see only black and white until you touch your soulmate, except you see in color until you touch your enemy, so you have a reason to hate their guts

On that note, the au where you don’t age until you meet your soulmate, except it’s until you meet your rival, so you have even MORE reason to hate them

The body swap au. Just, the body swap au. 

IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE IDEAS, COMMENT/REBLOG, I WILL EAT THEM UP

A Different Type Of Rival AU

The Rival AU is where Ladybug and Cat Noir aren’t partners. They are rivals as they fight Hawkmoth. This au usually has Cat Noir able to use his own version of the Miraculous Cure. However, I had an idea to change this au up. This au has two popular media tropes going against each other.

The solo hero/heroine vs a team of heroes and/or heroines.

You can make up the team however you want. If you want the team to be full of only boys or girls, go ahead.

How this would work is when Master Fu senses the Butterfly activating, he decides not to send out the Black Cat. Instead, he sends out the Ladybug and a couple lesser Miraculous to replace the Black Cat.

One of these lesser Miraculous should have their own version of the cure as their main power.

After Stoneheart is defeated one side states they’d be rivals or the public makes it happen. So both sides go on to defeat Akumas with people keeping score of which side has defeated more Akumas than the other.

Eventually, more Miraculous Wielders would appear. Those wielders can either join one of the two sides or be their own team as a sort of third party (fourth if we count Hawkmoth and Mayura).

Now, you can have the story go with both sides joining together. Or you can keep them rivals until the villain is defeated.

In this type of scenario where there are more than two permanent heroes. You can even have Hawkmoth manage to snag a few Miraculous and give them to his pawns (Chloe and Lila) to add to their loyalty or “loyalty”.

Personally, I’d mix this au with my Multiple Power AU. I’d have the Ladybug Miraculous wielder be against the Rooster, Tiger, Ox, and Horse Miraculous with maybe a fifth one.

They’d each start out with two powers of their choice (Three if you have Tikki and another kwami make the Miraculous Cure be a mandatory power they give the wielder).
