It's CCA time!! A time of year that I'm always excited for, because it comes with the excuse of reading and re-reading copious amounts of fanfic in the name of nomination research.

Here's a neat little masterlist of my fics and my videos, if you are in need of a thing or two to pad out your nomination form. 💙💜💙

"The Finfolk's Bride" a series (currently) consisting of two fics; "Tomorrow" & "Ad Astra". In which Rumplestiltskin is a mischievous Fin and Belle is his ever-adoring human companion. (2/?) ∣ (3.4k) [possible noms]: Best Creature, Best Date, Best AU (Original)

◆ ◆ ◆

"Portrait of the Heart" a 'Skin Deep' prologue Rumplestiltskin's heart beats with a singular purpose – to reunite with his lost son. But his heart only has so many beats left before it fully gives into the Darkness. An enchanted locket known as The Heart's Caretaker may be his only chance to save what little light still burns within him. He just needs it to reveal to him the one person in the realm destined to banish his shadows and bring love back into his world. (5/5) ∣ (12.7k) [possible noms]: Best First Meeting, Best Rumbelle Secret Santa, Best Belle, Best Dark One Rumple

◆ ◆ ◆

"Lacey and the Tramp" a golden lace one-shot Gold and Lacey acquire a new furry companion...much to Gold's chagrin. Ft. Gold's mental agony of being haunted by Belle every time he looks at Lacey. (1/1) ∣ (1.5k) [possible noms]: Best Golden Lace, Best Comedy, Best Lacey

"Pages of Reverie" a dark castle one-shot From a tome within the dark castle library, Belle unleashes a strange sleeping curse that forces her to confront her heart's deepest desire. Ft. Belle having a make out session with a dozen different fairy tale versions of Rumplestiltskin. (1/1) ∣ (2k) [possible noms]: Best One-Shot, Best Dark Castle

"Belle French & The Dork One" - Rumple & Belle Three minutes of pure Rumbelle goofiness (with corresponding goofy editing). (2:55) [possible noms]: Best Video, Best Fluff Art

Well, it's that time of year again. What time of year, you say? Oh, hello there, Rumbelle newbies, I see you there, busily working away on filling out the ballot for the Chipped Cup Awards and flailing happily if some of your fics were nominated. Congratulations, and good, you should be in the right mood.

This is a fairy tale fandom, so let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, in the early times of the fandom, some of the Rumbelle writers looked at each other and said "Let's make all the Rumbellers cry". This challenge was taken up, and the Rumbelle War commenced, in which works of great angst and darkness were written. Readers cried and cursed the writers, who cackled evilly as they collected the broken hearts which were flung at their feet, and tucked them away in boxes and bags and old wooden card catalog drawers (because Rumbellers are big on libraries).

But because there must be light to balance the darkness, a new event was created -- FLUFFAPALOOZA.

Fluffapalooza is when you write and draw and gif the fluffiest fics/art/scenes you can think of. Haven't got the time or spoons to do any of that but you've got ideas? Post them as prompts, or headcanons! Or if you want a challenge, make a post announcing that you want to play "Fluffify this!" and invite people to send you angsty-sounding prompts in the form of sentence starters, which you will then sneer at and say "Not today! Today is for fluff!" and write a little prompt fill in which you turn that prompt into something fluffy. (See an example here.) Or maybe you just want to rhapsodise about Rumbelle and talk about their chemistry, or what the ship means to you and how it affected your life. Maybe you want to reminisce about how we started adding silly Rumbelle captions to every picture of a croc or gator or lizard that crossed our dashes. Anything goes! Tag everything with #fluffapalooza if you want it reblogged here!

Oh boy, you're saying (I hope), it sounds like fun! When is it? FLUFFAPALOOZA IS FEBRUARY 12, AKA SKIN DEEP DAY, THE ELEVENTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FOUNDING OF OUR SHIP. THIS IS OUR HIGH HOLY DAY, GUYS, LET'S KEEP THE LOVE FLOWING AND CELEBRATE IT RIGHT.

(Oh yeah, and I believe it was in that contract you had to sign when you entered the fandom (you DID sign that scroll of parchment you were sent, yes?) that you have to reblog Love Is Purple and Love Is Still Purple at least once a year as part of the Anniversary Rites.)

My rewrite is actually so precious to me and it's been a huge impact on my writing and creativity. I just love it and the characters I started it for in the first place. My beloveds!!

RSS 2022 Schedule

Seasons greetings to all you lovely, amazing Rumbellers! It’s the end of October, and you know what that means: it’s time to start thinking up prompt ideas for the Rumbelle Secret Santa!

Here’s this year’s schedule, which I’ll update on the RSS page when I have an opportunity to log into my fun laptop and mess around with the page:

Sign-Up Period: Saturday, November 12th - Thursday, November 24th.

Assignments Sent Out: Friday, November 25th.

Gifts Due By: Monday, December 26th.

Last year, some people asked if we could do a staggered release schedule, like was done in previous years, so we’ll go back to that practice. Gifts can be posted from Friday, December 23rd to Monday, December 26th. Once we get closer to the due date, I’ll contact all participants to ask what day they’d like to post on.

I’ll post a reminder on sign-up instructions as we get closer to the sign-up date. Here’s to another great RSS event!

[heartoftheship]

Belle helps prepare Jasmine for her wedding - in the meanwhile, Rumplestiltskin prepares his own surprise for Belle.

Start reading this fanfic from the start Take me to Chapter 48

Chapter 48: The Wedding

That morning, Rumplestiltskin dropped Belle off in front of the door to Jasmine’s chambers, dressed in an outfit that was very similar to Jasmine’s usual one: blue loose pants and a matching top without sleeves. Rumplestiltskin had already voiced his approval of the outfit, and had hardly been able to keep his hands off Belle, but he knew how important today was for her and did not try to distract her too much from what she had come to do.

“Now, when you are dismissed, just say my name three times,” Rumplestiltskin said softly, curling a lock of Belle’s hair between his fingers while he looked at her with a smile. “I will whisk you to the ship then, and I intend to spoil you all evening long.”

Belle felt nothing but excitement at the prospect, her stomach jumping at the idea of spending the evening with her love. They shared a sweet kiss in the corridor before Rumplestiltskin squeezed her hands and whisked away again, leaving Belle alone in the royal palace.
