Wie wir jetzt einfach schon seit gefühlt 2 Jahren darauf warten, dass zwei Teenager Jungs zusammen kommen, nur um höchstens 2 min Couple content zu bekommen.
If I had a nickel for every time a black girl named ava appeared in a german teen/kids show with tua el-fawwal in it, instantly won over my heart and became best friends with queer characters, I would have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
After they all did their proposals, everything went really fast. They had to dress up (again) so they could meet their fiancées for the first time. (Sara looked stunning in her baby blue dress, it was horrible.) David had been revealed to her and he played it up so much, she almost feared getting called out by the production for faking it. But he’s always been a theater kid with a flair for the dramatic, so of course he had to take the opportunity. No one said anything though, so the other couples must have been just as dramatic as they were.
After all of that was done, they got shipped to their next place. They are all staying in a luxurious hotel near the beach, every couple got their own fancy suite, jacuzzi included (not that she and David would use it for any romantic activities). She wondered what the production would expect of them, but for now only a romantic candlelight dinner was planned. They managed to get through it well enough, she guesses with some good will the viewers could see sparks flying. At least it wasn’t awkward since they were already used to each other’s presence. Baring your soul was one thing in the pods, the anonymity of it all made you forget about the cameras, but here in the hotel suite everything felt more real, so she’s glad she doesn’t really have anything to lose.
Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💜
Aww, thank you 🥰
More or less in order of how much I like them:
Pull Me Tight And Close Your Eyes: It felt weirdly therapeutic to write this story, maybe that's why I like it so much. Also, I feel like it is one of the best ones in terms of quality. (Ironically, this one has my least favourite title though.)
Colour and Light: Again, I like this one because I think it's actually good, it's one of the only ones I reread every now and the. Also, it's the story that got me back into writing more regularly and also I think the story that got me back into the fandom, so it has a special place in my heart.
Open Your Eyes: This was just fun to write and also it's the fic that had the most reader interaction (because it's a multiple chapter fic that I almost managed to update regularly) so that was really fun!
Can't Help Falling In Love: I mostly like this one because it was so different from everything else I've written. I would never do it again because it was lowkey stressful and pretty hard to write but it was also a lot of fun!
The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Dabeeo and Mabeed: This has Dabeenzi in it, so it automatically wins.
Also, honorable mention: Give Me A Sign. It's not really one of my favourite fics because I think I've written better fics (only speaking of my parts here, of course, but I won't tell you which they are). But I love writing with other people, it's just that planning the story and reading my co-writers' parts is more fun than writing myself, whoops.
