Another part of the alphabet series. For more information on the alphabet series see my page.

Katie prompted: Mace, Mail, Mock, Mystery, Mistake

A/N: It took me a while to post this because I was sick and couldn’t write, but it’s longer than the previous ones so hopefully that makes up for it.

Rating: PG-13
Ships: Rumbelle, Red Cricket
Summary: Ruby (costumer), Belle (chorus), and Archie (stage manager) live in New York and work in stage productions. They try out a new pub with an interesting bartender. It will be called Bevvy and Boke!verse unless I change my mind.

It was close to one in the morning and Belle really wanted to go home, but Ruby was obviously enjoying herself on the dance floor and Belle wasn’t the type to leave her roommate and best friend alone in a club. Thus Belle dutifully sat at the bar, rebuking advances from every guy who came up to her and ordering derby teas. It was somewhat funny to think that the girl surrounded by guys was the least likely to go home with one. Ruby had been with Archie, the awkward stage manager of a production a few theaters down from theirs, for about eight months and they were still going strong. One man had been particularly irksome tonight. Belle had told him she was not interested several times, but this Killian person refused to leave her alone.

Author’s Note: I threw in a little RedCricket just because the opportunity presented itself.  I’m having so much fun writing this—if you’re having fun reading it, please let me know! Questions and comments are ALWAYS WELCOME!

PS: to angelxofxmusicxx, I know these aren’t the quotes we discussed, but don’t worry, I promise I’ll work yours in! To dancinwithabottle, you asked for a girls update scene—here you go! 

I do promise to bump up the romance in the next few chapters. Keep the comments and suggestions coming!!!

Chapter 7

As Belle walked home her head still spun from her interaction with Gold.  Nick, she thought with amusement, his name is Nick. Did anyone in town even know that?

Gold had been all of three steps out of the door when Jefferson had come careening out of the back room to ask, “And just what the hell was all that about?”

Belle had shrugged it off, “Maybe he’s just lonely on a Friday night?”

Title: Visiting Hours
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Everyone’s been locked away at some point, and everyone’s had a visitor. Or what happens when the people of the Enchanted Forest can no longer run from their personal ghosts.

They are to move to the King’s palace in the morning. Regina’s mother sleeps, beside her sleeping father; her new step-daughter sleeps; her future husband sleeps. Everyone sleeps, and Regina wonders how.

She can barely close her eyes for memories and they bring tears and a tearing, bleeding gash where her heart should be. Every moment she tries to sleep, she hears that terrible, choking, gasping noise her mother tore from Daniel’s throat, as she ripped the heart from his poor shaking chest and crushed it to ashes. She hears not her own screaming, nor her mother’s stern admonishments. She hears only choke, gasp, thud, silence.

rumbelle and red cricket running into each other on their respective walks of shame

“Oh, hello, Miss Lucas.” Rumpelstiltskin almost crashes into the young woman on the sidewalk, “What ah, what brings you out at so early an hour?”

The sun has barely risen, and it is odd to see the girl without her usual make-up, her clothing a little disheveled and her hair unstyled.

deariedeariedear asked you:

Ruby’s curiosity gets the better of her and asks Belle what Rum is like in bed.

“Okay, okay,” Ruby was grinning, excited, leaning over the bar as Belle took her seat, but Belle knew her friend: this was not a good time look. This was a be afraid look, “Tell me everything.”

“About what?” Belle asked, half-feigning confusion in the hopes her friend would be thrown off the scent. No such luck.

“You and Gold! Or Rumpelstiltskin or… I don’t know, but you and him.”

— In response to Rufeepeach’s challenge: Spice Girls!OUaT fic

pamplemice:

This is Spice Girls!OUaT crack fic in response to Rufeepeach’s offer.  It was great fun watching Spice World in the RMC and I blame you horrible lovelies for the following offense to good sense.

Hey You, Always On the Run

Bouncy pop music floated in through Mr. Gold’s home office window.  Leaning back in his chair, he peeked through the blinds.  He was pleased to see his teenage son, Bae, splashing around in the backyard pool down below, and one of Bae’s friends, Morraine, lounging next to a radio.  Mr. Gold, with his closely tailored dark suits and sharp expressions, did not look like a man who would be interested in pop music, but his skills at turning contracts to his advantage and staring down histrionic artistes had helped him rise in the music industry to where he stood now: owner of a small but very successful and profitable record label.  He relied on his son’s friends and his everywoman assistant, Ashley Boyd, for clues about what sort of thing the younger generation wanted to listen to.  Mr. Gold recognized the song Morraine was enjoying as one by the Spice Girls, his newest set of stars.

phoenixfeatherquill:

It was certainly a strange wedding night.

The lone king-sized bed had given Belle slight pause, but Mr. Gold pulled open a door which revealed a second room.  She’d breathed a sigh of relief; clearly, he’d thought ahead and reserved adjoining rooms.

“Here you are,” Mr. Gold cleared his throat. “Would you like to eat dinner downstairs, or would you prefer to order room service and eat privately?” 

Belle glanced at him.  He was so hard to read.  Was he requesting her company or subtly asking to be left alone? 

“Downstairs will be fine,” Belle decided.  She was going to be living with this man for six months, she might as well start getting to know him now. “Just give me a minute to freshen up.”  She tossed her luggage on her bed and flitted into the bathroom, splashing water on her face.

rufeepeach:

AU: Because of one little lie, everyone at Storybrooke University now thinks that Belle Charmin is sleeping around, and Professor Gold, the only guy who seems to believe her innocence, is totally off limits. Easy A!AU.

Rumour Has It
Chapter 2

——-

Regina had heard of me: I was famous, and in some ways I still am. And this was even before the real acceleration started, when I was just one of many girls on campus known for somewhat… easy virtue.

I was, I think the first girl she’d ever spoken to like that who gave the same kind of treatment right back. I just refuse to be spoken to like I’m nothing, especially from judgemental bitches who don’t know a thing about me, my life, or what I do in my free time.

And If My Heart Should Somehow Stop Part 4/6 Rumpelstiltskin/Belle (Regency AU)

Rating G 

Notes Dear lord, this chapter literally sucked the soul out of me. But I’m so happy it’s finally finished and I’m truly sorry for the long wait. This is the longest and maybe most jam-packed chapter (a little over 10,000 words) I’ve written and hopefully after this, the chapters will finally start getting shorter and happier!

Loads of developments in the Rumbelle and Red Cricket departments, we witness a Ball and the reuniting of our tittle characters as well as many other special guest appearances of random (non)/Disney characters and villians. Though it took forever, I have to say I’m happy with how it all turned out, I hope you all enjoy it and once again I’m truly, truly sorry about the delay!
