Remember my Arthur/Eames Bond!AU? That I finally came up with a sequel for seven years after posting the first fic?
Yeah, I’m working on a third part.
Though technically it takes place between the other two fics. Has a bit more action to it. I am decidedly NOT NICE to Arthur in it, unfortunately. But he gets some cuddles afterwards so…?
First draft is done, and it’s already longer than both of the other fics combined. And if previous precedent holds, it’ll get even longer during editing and rewrites, lol.
Expect it sometime after the Paint Shop AU is done. I’m actually surprised how much I’m liking how it’s turning out at the moment.
Heyo, any of y’all remember my super fluffy Cherik Mpreg ‘verse?
Well…
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
I added another fic to it!
As I say in the fic notes, I wrote this years ago, but didn’t think much of it at the time. With the benefit of the passage of time, plus a little editing, I actually like how it turned out in the end. The sad mid-quel is still in development, but other than that? This series has come to a indefinite close. I’m always open to more inspiration, though, so I’m not gonna list it as such quite yet.
The series might be my favorite of my own stuff, and returning to the universe feels like being wrapped in a warm blanket.
If you’ve read this series over the years and enjoyed it, thank you so so very much ❤️❤️❤️
I need to get back into writing. I love writing but with depression it's hard to do something I love. But I'm getting back into it. I need you guys to send me prompts of anything. I don't care what fandom. Just anything. I'll write angst but, it may be a while. I need prompts please. I need to do this. I've already got a few thanks to @lextriasi (❤️) but I need more. I'm making a list to remind myself I need to do this. Anything is welcome.
climbing class au where the police find Josh before he turns to a wendigo and Chris goes to see him
“We have to go back for Josh. He’s still in those mines.”
Chris faced everyone as they stood outside the now burning lodge. Mike and Emily looked at the blond as if he had grown a second head.
“Um, are you kidding me? After everything he did do you really expect us to want to risk our lives to save him?” Emily held her head up and her hands on her hips, confidant that what she had said was smart.
“Josh is our friend! He’s my best friend! Stay here if you want but, I’m going to save him.”
Chris rushed forward and took the machete from Mike’s belt and clicked it onto his own. he held the shotgun tight and ran into the woods, Sam yelling for him to come back but, words falling on deaf ears as the helicopter had started its descent to pick up everyone from the burning building.
He ran into the mines not knowing where to go to find Josh in the mines. He shot any Wendigo that came near him and kept running. Chris had one thing on his mind and that was his best friend and crush. Everyone thought that he and Ashley had been crushing on each other but, in all honestly, they were dead wrong.
Ashley was one the person he felt comfortable talking about his crush on Josh, same with Ashley as she talked about her crush on Sam. They were so close that everyone had started to think they had a crush on each other.
Josh slowed down as soon as he realized he had been running on instinct and had not been paying attention. He looked up and saw hooks hanging from the ceiling of the mine, on one of them he saw the hanging body of the Stranger. Chris’ thought closed up and he could feel tears building up in his eyes. The guilt he had for causing his death when he had wanted to get Josh from the shed when he knew it was dangerous.
Chris took a deep breath and looked away from the body and listened around.
“Stop-please! It-it was a prank. I didn’t mean for anyone to die. I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Don’t leave me! Please, don’t leave.”
Chris could hear choked sobs and loud begging from deeper in the room. He recognized the voice as Josh. He knew from experience of having to comfort Josh many times throughout the years.
He treked over to the sound of the voice. He saw Josh’s small body in the large overalls, crouched into a ball, whimpering. He shook like a hairless cat left in the cold.
“I’m sorry Jess, Hannah, Beth. I didn’t want this to happen. Mike, Matt, Emily, Ashley, Sam…..Chris. Cochise. I’m sorry. I hope you and Ashley are happy together. I’m too much of a coward to tell you how I felt. I’m such a peice of shit. “
Chris had heard enough. He rushed over and unzipped his jacket and wrapped it around Josh loosely, to let him move. Josh’s breathing hurried and looked over to Chris’ face.
“NO! Stop! No more please! I’m sorry! Stop tricking me!”
Chris held Josh loosely against his chest as he thrashed, placing Josh’s head on his chest to listen to his heartbeat through his turtleneck sweater.Josh slowly calmed down hearing the rhythmic beat. Tears in Josh’s eyes fell as he stared at Chris’ face. Josh had a deep purple bruise on his forehead from Mike clocking him with the butt of his gun and around his cheek was what looked like skin and flesh had been torn.
“Chris? Is that really you?”
“Yeah, it is. Listen as much as I want to talk to you, we don’t have a lot of time before the chopper leaves us here.” Chris had adrenaline running through his veins and on a split second decision he did something he had wanted to do since middle school.
Chris kissed Josh briefly before putting the shotgun in Josh’s arms and picked him up bridal style and ran. Chris followed his instincts and found his way from the mines. Any Wendigo they saw Josh shot them under Chris’ prompt to do so. Josh saw the blades of the helicopter and turned to look at the concentration on Chris’ face. He leaned forward and kissed him on the chin. Chris made no sign of noticing the kiss but, Josh saw his blush spread throughout his face. It was even deeper than before from just being in the cold.
Josh knew what he was going to be talking about in the chopper.
sometimes, when Josh is sad, he and Chris will go to this late night diner and have deep conversations over milkshakes and fries at 3am
“You enjoying that shake bro?”
Josh looked up at Chris from his chocolate shake, the straw still in his mouth. His eyes were wide and almost looked guilty but, still so adorable. Chris leaned forward and kissed Josh on the cheek. The blush could barely been seen on Josh’s face as Chris opened the lip of his vanilla milkshake and took a french fry from the basket that was shared between them and dipped it in.
The neon signs from outside glowed through the glass and basked Chris in a halo of neon pink. Josh looked down back at his cup, wanting ti hide the light pink that showed.
“You do agree with me right? Aliens are absolutely real.”
Chris at fry after fry talking about aliens while Josh just smiled and stared at him, looking at his eyes and the halo that enveloped him. The trip here made him happier already.
Climbing class 'I was playing the floor is lava with my neighbors down the hall and jumped right into your arms’ au?
Chris stared affectionately at his best friend/boyfriend as he picked up cushions from the couch and laid them strategically over the living room floor and the larger kitchenette that was conjoined with the sitting space. Chris knew what was coming as Josh came towards him, sitting in the last arm chair that had a removable cushion to add to the ones on the floor for his game.
“Come on Cochise, you know how this is going to end. I’m gonna get you up from this seat one way or another.”
Chris smirked up at the taller person. “I’d like to see you try. I have nerves of steal.”
Josh scratched the top of his head, ruffling his hair before smirking and leaning closer to the blond, wrapping his arms behind his neck. The tips of their noses touched and their lips were only a hairsbreadth away from each other.
Chris’s face and ears turned red and Josh knew that the red would be heading down to his chest. Josh leaned down over to his neck and left butterfly kisses before going back and pressing his lips against Chris’.
He took one of his hands and put it in Chris’ back pajama pocket and gripped it in his hand. Chris wrapped his arms around Josh’s neck and gasped into Josh’s mouth as Chris stood in front of Josh and pulled the two of the away from the chair and sat Chris down on the coffee table before backing away from the blond. HIs lips were swollen and red and the blush that was spread throughout his face and ears and, even if Josh couldn’t see it, his chest as well. His eyes were clouded and hooded from the kiss.
Josh smiled mischievously and left Chris on the table and went to pick up the cushion from the arm chair and placed it in the biggest portion that was in between the kitchen and living room and proceeded to jump from pillow to pillow.
“Come on Cochise! The floor is lava bro!”
Chris pouted as he watched Josh bounce from one place to another. Chris stood and walked across the pillows to the hallway to Josh’s room. Thanks to Josh, he had a hard-on to get rid of and he had a plan that required one of Josh’s shirt to get filthy.
“Yo Cochise! Turn around real quick.”
Chris humored the taller but, smaller male and just as he turned around Josh jumped from the couch arm, into Chris who quickly wrapped his arms around him before he fell to the ground.
“Well, Cochise? You gonna take me in that room and take me to the bone zone or what?”
Chris kissed Josh and carried him into his room where he did not hold back.
