This was a tough decision, since I adore beardrew, and five times nothing certainly sounds intriguing. But in the end it has to be Mafia arranged au (because it reminds me of ‘the family business’ - so good!)

OKAY this was something i made a loooong time before the family business, and so it kind of fell to the wayside post-tfb because my mafia itch had been scratched. It’s a rough outline for an arranged marriage au between the hatford and minyard crime families, still in the stage of me goofing around with bits of dialogue and OOC jokes that would never make it within 100 feet of the final version. Anyway, an excerpt under the cut:
A= Andrew, N= Neil, R= Renee, etc
After the wedding. Neil’s first night at the Minyard residence. He has been introduced to Renee (Andrew’s bodyguard) but has not yet met the rest of the Minyards.
A: And how is married life treating you?
N: Too early to call it (flipping Andrew’s words back on him).
Sits and watches (creepy, Neil!) Andrew work. Falls asleep in chair. Woken by Andrew throwing a pen at him
A: Go to bed
Neil, panicking bc of the implications: I don’t know – I forgot, which room is, uhhHHHH
A: There’s three empty rooms on the fourth floor. Pick any bed that doesn’t have someone else’s stuff in it.
Neil, confused, goes to room.
While later, knocking at door. Neil PANCKING: Hello????
R:Andrew asked me to give you a key for whatever room you picked.
N: Why?
R: So you can lock door if need be
N: ??????
R: We want you to feel safe here, you tragic dipshit
-
Next morning Neil gets lost on way to kitchen. Is he living in fucking Hogwarts now or what?
There’s unfamiliar voices within, but fuck it, he lives here now, this is technically his kitchen and he’s fucking HUNGRY
Nicky and Aaron are cooking breakfast. Cue awkward stand off.
Nicky, Aaron: Who the fuck are you?
N: Who the fuck are YOU?
N+A: We LIVE HERE
N: So do I?
Everyone: ???????
N: I’m Neil Hatford. No, wait, I’m a Minyard now. Fuck. Hatford-Minyard?
N+A: WHAT
N: I’m Andrew’s husband?
N+A: W H A T ?!?!?!?!
Andrew, appearing in kitchen door in pyjamas: Good morning my family who I love and care for dearly
Nicky: Is this a joke
AJM: We need the hatfords on our side
Aaron: You can’t be fucking serious!
Nicky: When???? Where???? You didn’t INVITE me? WHO WORE THE DRESS?
Aaron: The families won’t stand for this
AJM: Yes they will
Aaron: I won’t fucking stand for this
AJM: I don’t really give a shit
Nicky: This isn’t fair. I wanna be married. Can I have him instead?

sig66 replied to your post: I try to give a break to my arm/elbow from writing...
Ooh, can we have a picture when you’re done?
I believe it’s a good thing I’m stuck at home because it’s gonna take a while (I think I’ll finish up on the ONE color on the cat tonight), but yes, will post once it’s done!
The next one I want to tackle is SO MUCH cross stitch, but it’s basically one color (black cat on black background). It’ll take a while, but at least it’s not so much switching....
Firstly, the new website for rr looks amazing! You’ve outdone yourself! Secondly, I don’t know whether to thank you or curse you for recommending Red Rising. I’m halfway through Morning Star, and I’M NOT OK! I’ve got it on audiobook and I can’t stop listening! It’s so addictive!
SIG IM SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG. you are unbelievably kind and lovely thank you! Omfg, so since this was literally months ago HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT RR (red rising. when we wrote red rabbits, rr really fucked us up lol) HAVE YOU READ DARK AGE YET!? I’ve been yelling at @jeni182 to read it for the past like. 6 months 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

I’m all in favour of a “if you like this …” feature
I am too. @annawrites and I discussed it at one point, but I’m not quite sure how to implement it. I don’t read enough fic (most of my allotted “fandom” time is spent writing, not reading) to rec anybody’s fic but my own, but maybe avid readers could help compile a list? Or maybe searching the @aftgficlibrary tags for fics with the same themes might be an option? Does anyone else have any ideas?

Didn’t know I needed this til now, but now I’m desperate for a fic to go with it (with even more pictures, of course)!! Your art always has me swooning, I’m so in awe!
