Pairing: Rumbelle. Mentions of Red Cricket and probably of Mad Swan cause… reasons.
Summary: She laughed at his jokes and looked after him. She was beautiful and kind and Bae adored her.
… she was also seventeen, and off-limits.
Rating: NC-17 (I though I’d mix it up, step away from my comfort zone).
Fashion: As those of you who know me know I love to dress up Belle. The Lalique necklace I mention can be found here, the blue lace dress here and her burgundy dress here.
Dedication: I feel like I should dedicate it to the entire readership, because all of you have been disgustingly patient, waiting for this. To the ladies who complete me, Nothingeverlost and Bad Faery (the original prompter). To the people at the RMC, who were always full of encouragement. To the Anons who asked and prodded but where really nice about it and to Schavez7728. We don’t talk a lot but she’s often the first to like something I post and it makes me smile every damn time. Thank you.
Well, enjoy. And I want to add that this part is 14,424 words long, making this fic 61,187 words long. It was quite a ride.

Summary: Post The Outsider. An amnesiac Belle finds herself spending more and more time with a skittish but determined Mr Gold while acclimating to her life. And even if she keeps him at arm’s length there are moments were she cannot help but let her guard down.
RMC prompt: Foot rub. Basically “Amnesiac!Belle is aroused by Gold giving her a foot rub, and deeply embarrassed by it.”
Rating: R
EEEEEE sex magic yay!
Coming from the founder of sex magic this pleases me greatly.

Belle woke up first.
Though the curtains were drawn, she could still see a thin sliver of the window, telling her that it was still dark outside. Her body ached in the most pleasurable way, cheerfully reminding her that last night had not been a dream. Not that that could even be a mistake to make. Gold slept on his side, facing her, his arm still firmly wrapped around her waist. She could feel his warm, steady breath against her cheek and hear the sound of his heartbeat.
She felt a draft and unconsciously, she snuggled nearer to him, resting her forehead against his bare chest. What now? She wondered. What do we do now?
Oh, Gold, you unmitigated idiot who is still kind of adorable because you don’t believe anyone can love you and that makes you such a woobie. This was lovely, from the awkward morning after to the outburst with the cup.
But… the ending. Not cool, man. Not cool at all.

Title: Dancing Magic
Note:Basics on Reindeer Games. I am going to bet that this is not everyone’s cup of tea. So I recommend you read the basics so you know what you are getting yourself into.
Reminder that these are out of order.
Cervitaurs: Henry, Emma, Neal, Mr. Gold
I love how much thought you put into this ‘verse. And Gold’s stories of his early bouts of magic. There was a sad shortage of black lace panties, but I’m sure those will turn up on the next one.
This is a thing now and I regret nothing pushing and prodding you to give in.

Pride and Other Poisons
This is a gritty tale of Victorian Scotland, adapting Rumbelle Canon into a highly historical, literary setting. Honestly, I think it’s pretty fun.
Rated: M for Substance Abuse and Violence
Word Count: 48,000 across all 10 chapters
The conclusion to Part I! If you’ve been putting off reading this because you don’t like a WIP, I just want to encourage you to consider giving it a look-see this time around. We’ve cleared the first 1/3 of the story, and the next part will pick up a bit further in the future with (I hope) a few new surprises in store.
As you can see I decided that 3:30 am could go hang itself.
The story is, as always, lovely. It has a special, unique sort of flavour, because you strive so hard to find that “Victorian voice” that it really shows. The slow way Gold changes in his perception of Belle is KILLING ME and I love that we get to see Belle’s puzzlement over her employer (we know hos much this girl loves a mystery, after all).
Bae’s POV ripped my fucking heart out, thank you very much, and it felt like the sort of thing that might have gone through the actual Baelfire’s head during The Return (YES, YOU GAVE ME THE RETURN FEELS, I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY).
All in all I think you’ve set up a lovely scenario for the upcoming action, and I can’t wait to see where this is going. Thank you so much for writing this!

Note: Basics on Reindeer Games. I am going to bet that this is not everyone’s cup of tea. So I recommend you read the basics so you know what you are getting yourself into.
Cervitaurs: Mr. Gold, Jefferson, Victor, Ruby
Handlers: Abigail, Belle, Alice
The first line is from a book: “An Encyclopedia of Swearing: The Social History of Oaths, Profanity, Foul Language, And Ethinic Slurs in the English-speaking World” by Geoffrey Hughes.
WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS, GEP? WE WERE FRIENDS. WE TOLERATED EACH OTHER!
NOW IT’S ALL MISERY.

Title: Just another day of insanity
Note: Basics on Reindeer Games. I am going to bet that this is not everyone’s cup of tea. So I recommend you read the basics so you know what you are getting yourself into.
These are going to be snapshots, like the drawings, just little drabbles or short fics. There are also probably going to be completely out of order, and have probably very little to do with each other.
Regina and Emma are 18 and 17 respectably. Baelfire is 20.
I’d like to thank everyone who pushed and nagged Gepardo into writing this. It was a lot of work but we did it, people!
Gep, stop reading this and go write more. I want my handler!Belle, cookie!

Belle didn’t even think. Without missing a beat, she dove into the churning waters below, grabbing hold of the woman and towing her to shore. The water was freezing; it felt like a thousand needles were pricking at her skin and she half wondered if this was what it felt like for the survivors of the Titanic. Nevertheless, she kept her head and held on, pulling the stranger out of the water.
She didn’t waste a minute once they were safely on dry land, propelling the woman to the sheriff’s station. Emma Swan was working late on Christmas Eve, and was happy to provide fresh clothes and steaming cups of coffee for them both. Belle was not a coffee drinker but she couldn’t resist the hot drink and its ability to warm her bones.
OMG, WHAT KIND OF HORRIBLE ALL-CONSUMING FEELS DID YOU JUST GIVE ME?

So, by going through the Rumbelle Tag I figured that “Bed of Thorns” and “Mr and Mrs Gold” are must-read-FF’s, so I’m right in the middle of doing so :D
Is there an FF where Rumpel acually agrees to the curse being broken? Or fillings between scenes? Or any other FFs that I must read in order to avoid this last essay I have to write? I figured you’d know :3
… oh, hon, there are TONS of fics you should read. Here is my rec list. Somewhere there is a huge post with all the rec lists ever.

Post reblogged from If I could, then I shall not live in vain
I figured it’s about time I repay the favor and share some of my own most favoritest pieces of Rumbelle goodness. Off the bat, I recommend Bad Faery, rufeepeach and Eyes Like Dawn just overall, I love their work. I am gobbling down “A Whole New World” updates from Eyes Like Dawn like candy. Iced tea flavored candy.
Non-Smut:
“On the Shores of Loch Katrine” by Phoenix-Talon: I’m still working my way through this one, and sadly it hasn’t been updated in a couple of weeks. It’s pretty much the same business-like wedding arrangement deal between employer and employee as in “The Proposal” but with Rumbelle goodness and less slapstick and an adorable ten-year-old Emma and a sassy Ruby.
“Baby-Proofing With Belle” by andachippecup: A beautiful little one-shot that has Belle just so perfectly in-character.
“A Life Not Lived” by Jazz Lolipop: It’s short, it’s heartbreaking, and I just love it.
“A Handful of Wishes” by Masako Moonshade: A series of one-shots… I particularly recommend Chapters 1 and 5.
“A Flicker of Light” by sapsorrow86: Goddamn I love this one, and it makes me ship Pre-Curse Rumple with Belle so hard.
“Best Enemies” by Spindleshanking: Okay, not Rumbelle, but it’s just too good not to post. I have a soft spot for Regina and Rumple’s odd relationship.
“Fair” by sapsorrow86: This was my first taste of good Rumbelle fanfiction. Perfect characterization of the Rumbelle relationship.
“Hit Me” by AbyssinianSerengheti: Best creative AU out there, in my humble opinion.
“No One Could Ever Love A Beast” by robinsparkles14: Fucking Blue Fairy. That is all.
“Skin Deep” by DD Agent: I curse this wonderful writer for not updating. It’s a lovely role reversal, “Skin Deep” if Belle was the Dark One. I am in love with it, and I fear my affection is not returned because it was abandoned.
“Split Ends” by Little-Inkstone: Cute fluffiness in which Belle remembers even during the curse.
Smut:
“Chevalier” by oceanofdarkness: My favorite Gaston-centric story by far. Poor Gaston walks in on Belle and Rumplestiltskin.
“Comings and Goings” by TheStraggleTag: A freaking hilarious take on Episode 16, in which Rumplestiltskin is constantly interrupted from the task at hand.
“Compulsion” by Zion Angel: Belle gets a hold of Rumple’s dagger… Very steamy.
“The Proposition” by fayegrove: Belle makes a deal with Rumplestiltskin after being caught trying to steal his dagger. Rough, mostly non-con.
Again, rufeepeach, Eyes Like Dawn, Bad Faery. My three reliable dealers of smutty goodness and more.
I’m in there both as TheStraggletag and as Sapsorrow 86. Yay me!!!
Also, I love your fic. It makes my day when I realize you’ve updated.

AN: I’ve never posted a trigger warning before, but there are references to thoughts of suicide (drawing back on my own personal experiences) and allusions to domestic abuse. So trigger warning.
Belle stared at her father in disbelief. “What do you mean, there’s a deficit?” She said in a tremulous voice.
“I mean, we’re missing $25,000 dollars!” Moe snapped. He ran his fingers through his thinning hair agitatedly. “I’ve looked everywhere—it’s not there!”
Belle took a deep breath, trying to stay calm. “Dad,” She said firmly. “I went over the books just last Sunday and everything completely balanced and organized. How could there be $25,000 dollars missing?”
“I was supposed to drop off our latest deposit at the bank this morning,” Moe said agitatedly. “But I forgot. When I remembered after you left an hour ago, I searched for the money, and I can’t find it anywhere!”
Belle’s heart began to pound horribly. “When you were out today, did you go anywhere, did you stop for anything? Buy anything?”
“No!” Moe exclaimed. “Not even a stick of gum!”
I need more of this story like now.

Title: Pride and Other Poisons
Rating: M, for violence and substance abuse
Words (Total): 42,000
Summary: A gritty Rumbelle AU set in Victorian Scotland. Gold is the Viscount with a grudge, and Belle is the indentured maid of a monster.
God, I read it so fast you might have thought it was a drabble. I loved the Dr Whale part, the combination of the two personalities, SB and FTL, and the fact that Gold caught him “taking liberties”. And all of Gold’s inner musings were a joy to read. Awesome all around.
