don't freak out

The serum amplifies everything that is inside, so good becomes great; bad becomes worse. This is why you were chosen. Because a strong man who has known power all his life may lose respect for that power, but a weak man knows the value of strength, and knows compassion. Whatever happens tomorrow, you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are, not a perfect soldier, but a good man.

it's week twenty six and this time i'm going for:

five times robert tried to get rid of ben tucker (and one time he succeeded) by @softlass27

“Maybe you just haven’t had the right teacher yet,” Ben says to Aaron with a wink. “Can always give you a one-on-one lesson if you like?” Hang about. Robert’s pint glass freezes mid-air in his hand. He stares hard at Ben, takes in the way his eyes rove over Aaron’s form, travelling up and down. The slow curve of his smile, the way his voice just dropped. Robert knows what being attracted to Aaron looks like, better than anyone. Jesus, no wonder this bloke had forgiven him so quickly. Well, fuck that.

i'm just a girl who loves a romcom, standing in front of a fandom with a poorly made canva graphic, asking if you want to partake in a robron romcom summer.

dear good people of the robron fandom -

what's more fun than summer? a robron romcom summer. in the spirit of creating another fun wee fic event for this lovely fandom, i propose to you this: a week of romcom inspired fic for aaron and robert, from july 6-12.

the rules are simple - we're going old school big bang style. there's a google form here with an arguably excessive list of romcoms for you to be inspired by. pick one - pick more! - and once you've chosen, it removes it from the list, so you get to keep that romcom all to yourself.

write an au, write a canon fic - write whatever you want, just make it inspired by your favourite romcom!

but as a wee reminder - the dates are merely a suggestion so feel free to post whenever you fancy! i am one of Many europeans who was focused on not melting over writing fic so i am also. not ready.

rating: mature pairing: it's complicated word count: 13268 (1/?) summary:

In November, during a thunderstorm that meant daddy had to come in from work early and Victoria was in bed so Robert was cuddled between his mummy and daddy with hot chocolates watching Scooby-Doo, there was a knock at the front door. That was how John arrived. OR a reimagining of canon if john had been present in the sugden's lives since childhood. he is not well-adjusted

(aaron's not in the first chapter but he will be soon)
