ideas for Tale of the Nine Tailed Fanfic
here are some ideas for the Tale of the Nine-Tailed fanfic. Feel free to write any of them. If you do, please do not write Yeon and Rang as having romantic relationship (I beg this of you truly) and let me know in the comments! Otherwise I’d also be happy to just hear what y’all think about these ideas and what you think would happen in them even if you don’t want to write a full blown fanfic!
A few of these will be relevant to 1938 so beware. I’ll try not to give too many specific and obvious spoilers.
If you do write any of these, thanks a million. Truly, everything I try to write ends up an odd combination of depressing and terrible no matter what I do so it’s appreciated. Also please let me know in the comments.
Prompt 1
A modern no powers au where Yeon and Rang are still brothers with absentee parents (because we literally never meet their father does he even care about them at all. For the purposes of the fanfic, they can still be hella wealthy but their dad/parents are just never there) and Yeon still pretty much raises Rang (after his father brings him home as a child because his mother was still exactly like she was in the show). I imagine Yeon still being best friends with Moo Young and Hong Joo and them all viewing Rang as their little brother to a degree. This can go a lot of ways, but I’d just love moments of Yeon being protective of Rang.
Prompt 2
This is in the same au as prompt one, but it’s more specific to a moment that could take place in that universe. It doesn’t matter whether it takes place when they’re all in high school or college or just Yeon, Hong Joo, and Moo Young are in college while Rang is in high school, but that’s the idea for when it takes place. Just imagine Yeo Hee and Rang being friends but Yeo Hee obviously has feelings for Rang and Rang is very oblivious and takes everything she’s says to try and flirt very literally (and therefore not getting it) and Yeon and them seeing them interact and finding it adorable and hilarious. But also helping him realize how she feels and leading him to reciprocate her feelings.
Prompt 3
Yeon and Rang meet their father (could be after 1938 and in 1938). Yeon’s protective and annoyed/angry and Rang doesn’t know how to feel (Yeon might not completely know either)
Prompt 4
Post-1938 and in 1938, Yeon and Rang work out their issues (again) and rebuild their relationship
Prompt 5 *1938 spoiler but very nonspecific*
In 1938 ep 12, Yeon’s thoughts as he read that letter and his thoughts throughout the episode as he joins the rest of the characters and interacts with them
Prompt 6
*sorry there are obvious spoilers, but they’re really not important details*
In 1938, we learn that Rang has perfect pitch/is a musical genius (ep 6). It could also just be about him being a genius in general. Just a fic and Yeon and/or others learning that and being impressed/reacting.
