#flufftober alt 10

[cosmic-hoboandthehighlander]

Fun fact, this is probably one of my favorites by far, of any fandom, that I’ve written. I can’t wait for y’all to read the whole thing!

Prompt Day 9: …at first sight (+ bonus scenario: sharing the last table at a cafe)

Fandom: Bob’s Burgers

Ship: Tedmort (Teddy/Mort)

Rating/Length: 3,108; T

Tags: Alternate Universe, Alternate Universe - College/University, Mortuary student mort, navy sailor teddy, First Meetings, Teddy is canonically a navy veteran but we’re taking it back to when he was active duty, Love Letters, Fluff, Flufftober 2023, At first sight, it is love? Probably, College aged tedmort

Summary: “I’m Theodore! But you can call me Teddy.” Relief flooded the tall Navy man’s face and he plopped down next to him, setting down his food, gently moving some of Mort’s papers on top of the pile of books. The table was a mess, there wasn't really any room for another person to sit. “Sorry, I’m just gonna move these. There ya go! Anyway, thank you, by the way. It's crowded here and there’s not a lot of places to sit I wasn’t expecting it to be so busy, but I you looked the nicest out of all of them. I didn’t think you’d turn me away, but hey you never know! I’m literally a stranger!”

Mort blinked at him, dropping his pen into his notebook; holy fuck this man could talk. As gorgeous as this man was, Mort was starting to regret his decision, but there was something about him. The lopsided smile, the way he hunched onto his elbows and fiddled with the fork sitting on the table top. It was almost endearing.

Or

Mortuary Science student, Mort, falls fast for Navy sailor, Teddy, in town for a week of leave.

Day nine of flufftober 2023: …at first sight (plus bonus scenario: have your characters share the last table at a cafe)

Author’s Note: the idea of Teddy back in the Navy meeting a college student Mort was so cute, I can’t believe I thought a college au would never work for tedmort!

This can be read without the second half, it’s just a little sad! The second half is coming, I went overboard and this was already over 3k and the letters just…keep writing themselves. Please don’t let the “unfinished” status keep you from reading, I promise I will update the last half tomorrow when I get some sleep and can get it edited (and it will not be uploaded as part of a flufftober prompt)

Flufftober Day 4 | Perfect coincidence

Pairing | Avenger!Bucky Barnes x Civilian!Female!Reader

Word count | 1.4K

Summary | You find yourself in the middle of a rainstorm and seek refuge in a warm-looking coffee shop. When there's only one table left, you share it with a handsome stranger who introduces himself as Bucky Barnes and his fluffy white cat, Alpine. What started as one of the worst days quickly turned into one of the best.

Warning(s) | This is your official trigger warning. Do not proceed if any of these topics upset you. The reader gets caught in the rain, use of a nickname (doll), Alpine is smuggled into the coffee shop, and the fluff is amped up to 11 on this one, like tooth-rotting fluff.

Prompt(s) | Alt 10. Have your characters share the last table at a café.

A/n | This one shot is written for day 4 of @flufftober 2023. This idea immediately came to mind when I saw this prompt, and I couldn't wait to start this one! I hope you will all enjoy it as much as I did when writing it 🖤

Likes, comments and reblogs will be very much appreciated 🧡

Main Masterlist | Bucky Barnes Masterlist | Flufftober Masterlist

It is a rainy day in the middle of October, and you accidentally forgot your umbrella at home. This morning, the weather was wonderful; the sun even appeared, but you should have known it would be too good to be true.

So here you are, in a thin outfit, soaked through your jacket, hair completely drenched, and cold beyond belief. It's good that you've found a coffee shop that looks warm and inviting so you can warm up a little bit.

As soon as you've crossed the street and made your way to the door of the coffee shop, you see that it is almost full, but you head in regardless. If you stay outside any longer, you're afraid the cold might permanently seep into your bones.

Your fingers are entirely frozen by now, and all feeling left them a while ago, so opening the door was a little more complicated than usual, but you managed regardless.

When the door swings open, you're greeted by lots of chatter and laughter, the coffee machines making all kinds of noises, the smell of freshly baked pastries, and some soft music in the background. You let the door fall shut behind you, and the atmosphere wraps itself around you like a warm blanket as if you're coming home.

You look around you and take in all the different kinds of people in the coffee shop. Some are working on their laptops, headphones on and in their own world, others are having lively conversations, and then a few are reading their book.

After a few short moments, you walk towards the small line of people at the counter, standing behind the last person and trying to decide what you'll have as you look up at the menu.

''What can I get for you today?'' the lady behind the counter asks, and you give her your order for a hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and a cinnamon roll before she takes your name and writes it on the cup.

''It'll be right with you,'' she says after you've gotten your change from her, and you move to the part of the counter where you can pick up your drink. You grab your phone out of your bag quickly to see what time it is, and much to your surprise, it's only 1 PM.

When your name is called, you return your phone and thank the lady before picking up your cup of hot chocolate and warm cinnamon roll. You spot a table, and when you're walking over, you arrive at the same time as someone else.

''Shall we share this table, Doll? It appears to be the only one left,'' the man said in a deep voice, and hearing it immediately warms you from the inside out. And the nickname, that is truly what got you.

''Yeah, I'd love to,'' you say as you move towards the wooden chair, not wanting to ruin the beautiful couch with your wet clothing. You place your cup and pastry on the table before taking off your bag and jacket, hanging them over the back, and sitting down.

''I'm sorry, I completely forgot to introduce myself; how rude of me,'' the man says, extending a gloved hand, but you don't question it for even a second. Especially since you already know who the man across from you is.

''Sergeant James Barnes, but you can call me Bucky. And this girl-'' he fishes a cat out of the inner pocket after shaking your hand and puts her on the table ''-is Alpine!''

After you tell him your name, you focus on Alpine for a bit, and you tell Bucky about how you used to have a cat that looked just like her when you were growing up.

''I know it's silly, but I really wanted to name her Snowball, so I did. But Alpine is a gorgeous name! May I ask where you got her?'' you ask, and Alpine happily bumps her head against your hand, letting you know she wants more attention.

''I was looking for a cat to adopt in a local shelter because a friend told me how cats work well with people with PTSD. So I went there, and I saw little miss Alpine over here, and it was love at first sight,'' he says, a big smile on his face as he talks about her.

She jumps into your lap, although you're clothes are still soaked, and makes a little cat donut while spinning, slowly falling asleep and taking a pleasant and comfortable nap there.

''So, how did you end up on this side of town? I don't think I've ever seen you around here before,'' he says as he sips his coffee, and you do the same with your hot chocolate.

''You got a little…'' he says as he takes his glove off his right hand and reaches over to you. When his flesh fingers touch your lip, wiping the hot chocolate away as he stares into your eyes, the moment feels much more intimate than it probably should.

''I-I'm sorry,'' he says before quickly pulling his hand back, a red color sporting his cheeks, and he looks at his coffee cup, suddenly unsure what to do with himself.

''It's okay, I don't mind,'' you say in a soft but reassuring voice, and a small smile tugs at the corners of his mouth as he looks up at you through his lashes.

''As I was going to say, I recently moved to this side of town. I used to live in New Jersey, but I figured it was time for a change, and this looked like a beautiful neighborhood. It would appear I was right,'' you say as you look at him and extend your hand, needing to feel his warm skin around your cold hand.

The afternoon was spent chatting and getting to know each other better until it was finally time to go home because the coffee shop was closing for the day. You completely forgot to eat your cinnamon roll.

''Excuse me, could you maybe wrap this up for me to go?'' you ask the lady behind the counter, and she happily does as Bucky puts Alpine back into his inner pocket.

''C'mon, let us walk you home. We can use my umbrella,'' he says as he shows you a dark blue umbrella, and you gladly accept before walking out the door. He immediately opens it, and you hook your arm through his extended one, letting your other hand rest on his bicep as you walk through the rain.

''I feel so stupid for leaving mine at home,'' you say as you rest your head against Bucky's shoulder. ''But if I did bring it, I never would have met you, so I guess that's the good thing about me forgetting it,'' you chuckle, and Bucky couldn't agree more.

When you arrive at your apartment complex, he walks you to your front door, not wanting to say goodbye yet. He's still trying to find the courage to ask you out on an actual date, and he realizes time is running out now.

He clears his throat when you let go of his arm to search for your keys.

''Doll? Would you maybe- if you want to-, you can say no if you want-'' he stumbles over his words, but you look up at him expectantly. He rubs the back of his neck as he composes himself.

''Would you want to go out for dinner? I had a lot of fun this afternoon, and I'd love to get to know you better,'' he asks, and the smile on your face melts every worry away.

''I would love to; let me give you my number,'' you say. He unlocks his phone so you can put it in there. When you hand it back, you stand on your tiptoes and kiss his cheek softly as a goodbye.

''Goodbye, Bucky. It was great to meet you,'' you say as you unlock your door and walk in, and he stands there like a teenage boy with a crush. The smile on his face is not leaving, even when he's back at the Compound and he runs into Steve.

''Where have you been all afternoon? It's not like you to be gone for so long,'' his best friend asks, and that's when Bucky tells him about his afternoon.

The beautiful woman he met at the coffee shop, the way Alpine cuddled into her lap, and how the conversation never seemed dull, and you two still weren't done talking by the time you were dropped off at home.

''And the best of all is that I'll be seeing her again soon,'' Bucky says, that same big smile appearing on his face, and Steve's happy for him. After everything that's happened, you were the best thing that ever could have happened.

@flufftober Day 10: Hot Chocolate (Alt Prompt #1)

Pairing: Steve Harrington x Eddie Munson (Stranger Things) Word Count: 394 Rating: G | cw: None

Wayne sets a coffee mug in front of his granddaughter, trying not to look as expectant as he feels. It was the same anxiousness he'd felt when Eddie first came to live with him and he was trying to win a scared young boy over with a beverage his nephew had likely not remembered from Christmases long since past.

He decided on a Looney Tunes mug today, one that he has had for years. It's Wile E. Coyote's head, his long protruding snout working as an unofficial second handle – like a ceramic sippy cup. Perfectly usable even if Steve is hovering halfway across the kitchen counter before the kid even picks it up.

And if he knows anything about his granddaughter, it's that Joanie cartoons, just like Eddie.

Joanie leans forward, looking over the rim of the mug as she carefully examines its contents. She sticks a finger out, hovering it over the quickly dissipating bubbles. Only this time (unlike an unfortunate encounter last winter) she doesn't stick her finger straight in it.

"Two hands, Joanie Bologna," Eddie whispers from his spot beside her.

"Don't worry," Wayne says, nodding in reassurance at Steve's frown, "I didn't make it too hot."

He can't relax though. If anything he further tenses as the toddler gets her small hands around the handle and cartoon nose. As Joanie brings the mug to her mouth, wobbling a little as she goes, Eddie stands up and balls his fists above his head. Wayne smiles, knowing the boy is just as eager for their little Munson Family tradition to carry on.

Joanie clicks her tongue and makes a dramatic quenching sound, sticking her tongue out for good measure. She sets the mug down a little too quick, cocoa sloshing about and threatening to spill over.

She goes quiet for a moment, tenting her fingers together – her big brown eyes deep in thought. Just when Wayne feels like his heart is about it sink along with his hot cocoa-making skills, Joanie beams up at him.

"Pa, that was the best drink," she declares, raising her hands sky-high, "Ever!"

She sweeps her hand through the air, emphasising whatever physically encompasses 'ever'. Steve lunges for the mug to pull it to safety as Eddie reaches across the countertop.

Wayne receives a very enthusiastic pat on the shoulder.

"Nice work, old man," his nephew grins.

Maedhros shook his head. In what universe planning a murder was preferable to what they had actually been doing, he did not know, but he was going to play along...

Destiny And Her Whims - Liandrin Guirale/Joanna Beauchamp

A/N: Alt 8 for @flufftober.

Liandrin Guirale had always known the call of the wild, the need to protect Joanna Beauchamp, what she had not understood was why, why she was still alive, why they were still so bound together. Then she sees her again, mourning her children, Ingrid and Freya, a hand resting against her stomach, the routine will start again. Joanna’s hand tightens as she steps from the shadows, watching Joanna tremble, her steps more sure the deeper the link between seems to become. Joanna folds into her, eyes closing with a soft sob of pain. “I can’t do this again…” “You must…” “Not alone, I… I can’t do this….” “Who said you were alone?” “But…” “I was… afraid. Of us. Of this… feeling.” Liandrin’s voice softens. “Joanna… I have always, always loved you I was just… just afraid you needed someone else.” “You’d really stay?” “Of course I would.” Liandrin’s fingers cover the already forming child between them, her lips finding Joanna’s ear. “I should always have been here. With you.” Later, mere days really, Wendy is given back to them all. The woman’s lives returned by Liandrin’s new choice, a reset that breaks many an old habit. The children grow, aware but not practicing, trusted with the truth, Liandrin’s laugh warm when finally, aged merely 10, Ingrid begins to learn at her mother’s side. Liandrin, herself, is more than content to hold Freya, soothing the tired 9 year old who complains about being left out. In time, a year, she too will be learning but for now, for now it’s enough to be held, her smile soft when Liandrin coaxes magic through her fingers, wrapping the girl in fireflies. “We have all the time in the world, Freya love, just enjoy the process.”

With everything that’s going on at the minute, it’s probably a good time to remember how to spot a scam, because they’re not always obvious and you aren’t necessarily immune to them on account of age or intelligence level.

The following are genuine examples of scams that have been reported by others on the internet. They are not intended to be exclusive or exhaustive and are used for illustrative purposes only.

Seems too good to be true

Like something for nothing or an unusually large discount on something that’s usually hard to come by or very expensive.

Came from out of the blue

Someone claiming to be your internet provider calls up saying there’s an issue with your device or internet connection, even though both have been working fine all morning.

Account details/Access requested

Someone claiming to be from your bank calls up asking to confirm your account details for security purposes, or asks for you to download a program to resolve an issue with your internet banking which will allow them to control your device remotely.

Money or vouchers requested

A relative calls up and asks for money out of the blue, saying that they’re in a foreign country and have been injured and that doctors refuse to treat them until they’ve been paid, and that they need you to sort out payment for them.

Or: Someone from the tax office calls up saying you’re £500 on taxes and you need to send them Amazon vouchers right away.

’

Disguised or under Duress

Someone calls up claiming to be from the police, saying that they’re investigating counterfeit currency and need you to withdraw £2500 to hand to a courier. They tell you to tell the clerk it’s for a birthday present for your spouse if they ask you why you need such a large amount of money and not to tell them the real reason why, or else you’ll end up going to jail.

If any of the above fit the bill or sound very similar to what someone is asking you to do, there’s a chance you could get SCAM’D.

And if you do happen to fall for scams, make sure you tell the authorities or your bank right away as they may be able to put a stop to them (no organisation known by an acronym wants anyone impersonating them) and maybe able to recover some or all of your money.

Don’t feel embarrassed about it—scammers can often exploit our “off” days.

It is not enough for me to stretch after a 7 hour shift in work. I need someone to pick me up and wring me like a wet cloth.

My #1 post of 2022

Shout out to the people not doing Inktober, Flufftober, NaNoWriMo, etc. this year (or any year) for whatever reason.

Because they have prior work commitments (retail/service can be hell this time of year).

Because they’re too busy with school work or exam prep.

Because they’re dealing with chronic conditions and illnesses.

Because they have poor mental health and want to prioritise that.

Have other personal priorities and commitments.

Because they have no ideas or are between projects.

Because they don’t have energy.

Because they just don’t bloody well want to thank you very much.

You aren’t any less valid as an artist/writer/creator, and can’t/shouldn’t be pressured into doing anything you don’t want to do or made to feel bad about it.

This list is not intended to be exclusive or exhaustive, additions are welcomed.

P.S Not intended to be hate on anyone who does actually participate or enjoy these monthly challenges.

[flufftober]

Hello and welcome to our second annual Flufftober 🥳

We’re so excited to be back and to once again have you here!

Let’s fill the month of October with as much fluff as possible 🥰

You’ll find the entire prompt list - as well as a list of prompt substitutes! - at the end of this post so you can easily copy/paste it all. But first:

Rules & FAQ

No inc*st or p*dophilia - we can’t keep you from writing it or creating art for it but it won’t be reblogged.

No hate or ship bashing - we’re all different and we all love different things. As long as it doesn’t go against rule #1, it’s allowed.

Tag correctly! Trigger warnings (including cheating!), ships, ratings, (pure) smut, etc - it’s all fine as long as you tag it.

There’s absolutely no word count restriction, write as little or as much as you like.

In regards to art, anything goes: drawings, paintings, collages, mood boards, gifsets, videos, playlists… the sky’s the limit (though not really…)

While we can’t force you to write fluff or create fluffy art, please try to keep in mind that this is a fluff event 😉

You can start writing and/or arting as soon as you see this - but please refrain from posting before the respective day.

You can participate on as many days as you like, even if it’s just one; you can also create multiple entries for the same day.

NEW this year are our prompt substitutes! These are the five most loved prompts from the previous year, and you can use as many of them as you like instead of five prompts from the original list - or even in addition, that's completely up to you.

It’s okay to write one story/a series for all the prompts as long as it’s separated into chapters and the respective chapter/work is posted on the given day.

You do not have to stick to one ship or even one fandom - switch as often as you like to or even write for multiple ships for one day.

The ship does not have to be a romantic one! Friendship and family feels are more than welcome (but this is not a way to get around rule #1!)

This event can be combined with other events as long as the other event allows it.

Late entries are always welcome, even if it is months later.

All fandoms and ships are welcome - fanon and canon - as long as they’re of age (in case you want to add smut) and not related.

Posting

Posting to tumblr

Please use the tag #flufftober2022

Since tags are sometimes wonky, make sure to also add @flufftober in your post

We will try to catch them all, but please don't be mad if we miss a post or if it gets reblogged a bit late

If you're absolutely certain a post has slipped past us, feel free to send an ask with the link to your post

To make reblogging easier for us, make sure to add the following tags: #flufftober2022 #day [xy] #[fandom] #[ship and/or main character(s)]

If you're using a prompt substitute, instead of #day [xy] tag it as #alt 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5

Posting to ao3

You can add your creation to the collection flufftober2022 or flufftober_2022 (yes, we've claimed both because so many people added to the wrong collection last year 😅)

Late entries are always welcome, on tumblr as well as the ao3 collection! Neither will close - but like last year, reblogs will become less and less and further apart the more months pass...

Prompt Substitutes

Last year, many of you asked for it, this year we're delivering 😊 introducing: Prompts Substitutes!

As explained in the rules, these can be used if there are prompts in the original list that you don't like for whatever reason. No need to explain or apologize for it, simply switch them with one of the five most loved prompts from last year. Or... you know... just add these five to your list of 31 prompts that want to be written 😉

Alt 1: Slow Dancing

Alt 2: Caught in the Rain

Alt 3: Falling Asleep Together

Alt 4: Up Against the Wall Kiss

Alt 5: Winning a Teddy for the Other

We hope you like these lists, and now

Happy Creating 🥳

flufftober prompt list & requests
