AARON DINGLE 28.11.2008
wip wednesday
ah thank you so much @nerdyfangirl76 @jcforsapphics @illbeyourreasonwhy @robertbugden and @livflahertydingle for the tags! i don't have any new sections from my recent wips that i'm happy with soooooo here's another little section of do you have to let it linger?, which is coming soon i promiseeeeee
Aaron could barely breathe. he’d known exactly what he was getting himself into when Victoria called, had wanted it even. back when all this started, when theyd first broken up, when he was first seeing Alex, Robert had been around and about. Aaron had felt a little like microdosing him, never really saying much but always knowing that he was there. but then things had changed and Robert had changed and he had new friends and he suddenly wasn’t around anymore, not really. he rarely made it to the pub, and when he did he avoided Aaron’s eyes. he was never at work anymore, barely ever on the street. it was like he didn’t exist.
seeing Robert tonight, though, he seemed… well-adjusted, which was not a word Aaron had ever thought he’d use to describe Robert Jacob Sugden. he was content, if a little awkward. and his baby was really cute.
Aaron had been surprised with himself, proud of himself, the way he had held Seb, held him close, seen nothing but Robert in his little eyes, his little smile. he didn’t feel the ache, the grief, the anger, and well… he didn’t feel that around Robert anymore either. part of him wanted to, wanted to hate Robert so he could pretend he didn’t love him, but he never really was a great liar.
Alex was sat on the sofa when Aaron made it home, a lot later than he’d promised to be. he didn’t seem to get angry much did Alex, but there was a hard set to his expression in that moment and part of Aaron was itching for a fight. “didn’t think you’d still be here.”
“so you are avoiding me then?”
“what makes you say that? brew?” he didn’t wait for a response, flicking on the kettle and throwing a singular teabag into a singular mug. Alex didn’t drink caffeine after 4pm.
“Aaron, you’ve been God knows where for hours! you’re hardly even present when i’m talking to you. like right now.” Aaron would love to say he was wrong… but he hadnt actually heard what Alex had said. he was too focussed on Robert, on his new perfect(ish) life and the way he just seemed to fit now. apparently he’d had another panic attack, the day Rebecca went into labour, but looking at him now, Aaron could hardly believe it. “Aaron, are you even listening to me?”
“sorry! sorry, just- a lot on my mind.” as much as the ache in his bones had settled there, a permanent fixture in his ribs, Aaron couldn’t risk it. he couldn’t risk getting roped back in. as much as it hurt him, killed him to say, Robert seemed better now. happier. safer. more content in himself and who he was. him and Vic had never been closer, he had friends in Pete and Bernice and now Kerry and Vanessa too, and he’d seen Priya stop by with flowers not long after Seb was born. not that he’d been looking, of course. Aaron knew he was destructive, knew even better that he and Robert were a force to be reckoned with. as it turned out, Alex was the safer option not just for him, but for Robert too. so why did it feel like his heart was decaying in his chest?
no tags because its late butttttt can't wait to read what y'all put out<3

robron + hugs.
the writers room discussing Robert Sugden and every single serious SL of his they’ve ever dropped:
hc that Joe has a book of Robert Sugden's greatest hits and he flicks through it every night rubbing his hands together and laughing maniacally
you know what's a really fun (painful) way of viewing Chas and Robert's relationship? Robert being a manifestation of all of Chas' worst traits turned up to eleven.
her impulsivity, her selfishness, her poor decision making and (certain people aside) terrible taste in partners. her desire to protect Aaron but consistently not quite hitting the mark, be that because of her issues or his. her ability to deal with a hell of a lot but snap at explosive moments (PTSD and stabbing comes to mind). her infidelity, her constant seeking for better things knowing full well she's a self-fulfilling prophecy. in some ways, Robert and Chas are deceptively similar characters but Robert is a man and his personality is overall bigger, so where Chas' worse traits are bad, his are destructive in ways she could only fear being.
its like theyre trying to depict kev as the worlds most kicked puppy but i'll never fall for it because we already have beautiful aaron
forget-me-not
there's a click, and then the voice Aaron's been wishing, waiting, yearning for. "fine. a compromise. no visits, Aaron, i mean it. but we can talk and write and... i miss you, i love you, and i'm sorry. i'll call again tomorrow. if you can think we can make this then... well, you always knew better than me." Aaron wasn't going to walk away, not unless he really really had to. as they tackle their years apart, Robert's trauma inside only grows, and when Aaron becomes distant due to a new malevolent force in his life, Robert forces himself into action to save the man he loves.
okayyyyyy so that wip i swore i wasnt going to start... i may have lied.
here it is! a prison years au!!!! very au (no Hotten transfer, they actually stay in contact, all that jazz). please lmk what you think, i'll try to keep up with this but as well all know i'm really quite terrible at that <3

ah yes Lewis, your boyfriend is triggered by someone who reminds him of his abusive father so you tell said someone to go and apologise rather than having the apology on your boyfriends terms, thus resulting in said triggering someone waiting for your boyfriend in his house and refusing to leave
i'm sorry but i don't get how Vinny is at fault here. he's been triggered, and i'm all for Kev apologising but it has to be on Vinny's terms
this is just grinding my gears now, where is the respect for trauma?
robert literally marries both chrissie and lawrence they literally share him. he cant marry chrissie until lawrence stops being mad at him (for being with chrissie in the first place)(because robert was his first) any time anything goes wrong he has to sweet talk Both of them he has to keep both of them happy the whole time has to bat his eyelashes at both of them the wholeee time !! worst throuple evarrr !!!
okayyyy finally watching yesterdays episode and my main takeaways are that Steve is iconic and Gabby would be an incredible Lady Macbeth to Joe actually
having a fic reblogged by a writer you love is the greatest thing ever actually like yes please feed me external validation like oxygen
growing sideways
sometimes it felt like he wasn’t really there. no, not like he wasn’t there. more like the world wasn’t. he was walking through a film set or a simulation - it could look exactly the same or astronomically different and nothing about his experience would change a bit.
a little drabble (-ish?) (i haven't checked the word count but its shorter than what i usually write lol) about Robert and derealisation and all that jazz. i'd like to clarify that i am not a psychologist or an expert or anything so i'm just hoping this is somewhere along the right lines... enjoy!
