PROPOSED TITLE (open to changes):
FANDOM SETTING be detailed:

Low-fantasy version of canonverse. Hannibal the Cannibal, Kill Will, etc, but with MAGICystuff.

SYNOPSIS:

OPTION 1: What We Do in the Shadows

Hannibal is an emotional vampire who feeds on his patients. And also on everyone else. And also, he just eats people. It's not sustaining, but it is satisfying.

Will is an FBI-affiliated crazy rando with a million dogs and a suspicious proficiency for staking out (hahahaha) vampires. Could he be a descendent of the famed Van Helsing? Hannibal thinks yes! (Hannibal is wrong. Will is actually another vampire (an energy vampire? another emotional vampire?). Will is just more subtle than Hannibal is, because seriously a guy with fangs in a Dracula costume is more subtle than Hannibal is.)

Eventually, true love!

OPTION 2: Some Selkie BS

Will is a selkie who is tragically trapped in human form, forced to serve the cruel human who stole his pelt.

Jack is a dude who felt bad for that weird twitchy guy and decided to help him out by taking his gross AF coat/blanket thing to the drycleaner's for him. And then a case pops up, and he forgets to return it, but whatever. Not like the guy is missing it or anything (seriously, so gross).

Hannibal, the new associate of Will and Jack, is an impassioned believer in ancient folklore, and his Saturnalia has just come early.

SECONDARY CHARACTERS (optional): Avengers Ensemble :D

ADDITIONAL NOTES:


Civil War trope? Tony gathers together a group of people to complain about Bucky having been hired. Natasha joins for kicks. Steve gathers a group of people to support Bucky having been hired. Lots of pranks happen. Bucky is mostly confused, and almost wishing he'd stayed at his previous school, which had oppressive policies and was a total shit bucket, but at least it didn't include, you know, literal shit buckets (apparently, it was fertilizer, but ew). Above his door. Major safety hazard, people.

Wrong Number trope? Bucky is a newly-hired professor and keeps on screwing up the extensions. He dials people and reaches other people, he dials other people to apologise for calling them by accident and ends up dialing other other people, and it's just all terrible. On the bright side, he's now on first-name bases with professors from all kinds of fields, and Steve Rogers from the Visual Arts department keeps on stopping by his office with coffee. And scones. ...And dinner. Okay.

PROPOSED TITLE (open to changes):
PRIMARY CHARACTERS: Golden Trio, Draco&Friends
SECONDARY CHARACTERS (optional): Charlie Weasley, Norbert the Dragon, Horace Slughorn, Mad-Eye Moody
PAIRING: HPDM or gen
SYNOPSIS: A job fair comes to Hogwarts. Harry is expecting a relaxed day listening to presentations and wandering around looking at posters. He quickly discovers, however, that job fairs, like so many other things, are completely different in the wizarding world. Many extremely concerning practical demonstrations occur--Harry manages to get injured during every single one.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

-The demonstrations include trial runs in which the students have to complete a task relating to a “normal day on the job.” Moody's Auror demonstration, in which teams of students are assigned to locate and arrest unlawful trolls (they are not plants, they are actually trying to kill us, this is a thing that is happening), goes about as well as can be expected. On the bright side, a lot of hard-working Aurors got the day off.
-Charlie Weasley does a How to Train a Dragon demonstration. Approximately zero students are inspired to take on the job, but at least nobody died.
-Horace Slughorn, retired professor of potions at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, current chief consultant to Brewers & Sons, est. 1602, now hiring!!! arrives to do some elaborate potions demonstrations that send Harry and Draco to the hospital wing.
(Snape is still the Potions Professor, the students have never met Slugborn before...)
-Harry discovers within himself a nurturing side when the representative from St Mungo's compliments his intuitive and skillful Healing spells.
-Draco discovers within himself a nurturing side when the representative of Medicinal Potions Incorporated, Partners to St Mungo's, demonstrates how they make complicated poisons and antidotes (but mostly the poisons).
-Hogwarts puts on its own demonstration, encouraging students to become professors. It's embarrassing for everyone.
-The Unspeakables don't give a presentation, they give a comprehensive exam and a psych eval. Hermione is intrigued.

Title: so he's got a few flaws
Characters/Pairing: Sterek, Derek, Stiles, Laura, Erica, Boyd
Rating: S for Stupidity
Word Count: 1,735
Prompt: Stiles just wants coffee. And maybe a scone. And reliable wifi as far away from Scott's terrible relationship choices as he can get it. What he doesn't want is the world's most judgmental barista glaring at him when he tries to order his Grande, Iced, Sugar-Free, Vanilla Latte With Soy Milk.

Derek doesn't even work at Laura's stupid cafe. Making Stiles' order (poorly) is just about as far as his 'flirting with people'-skills go.

A/N:

-Yes, the title is from Frozen's Fixer Upper.
-This is attempt two (attempt three if you count my crack Japanese fic). The first attempt floundered and died.
-I do not know why I found this round so difficult to write for. The prompt should have be easy. What is wrong with me.
-P.S. I just realised that this doesn't match the prompt, oops. Sorry for forgetting to include the first half of the synopsis?

PROPOSED TITLE (open to changes):
PRIMARY CHARACTERS: Laura, Cora, Stiles, Derek
SECONDARY CHARACTERS (optional): Scott
PAIRING: Sterek
SYNOPSIS: Laura and Cora go out to see a movie together (with Derek; mom insisted they take him for a walk or whatever). They want to see the latest gorey-action-thriller-violent-death-horror film, naturally (but Derek doesn't; these movies freak him out. He's more of a rom-com kind of guy). While standing in line to buy the tickets (Derek's getting the popcorn), they hear some obnoxious asshole (Stiles) in line complaining to his girlfriend or whatever (Scott) that he was being stood up on their date (Scott had a date with Allison) and spouting some male chauvinist bullshit about how men can't watch chick-flicks by themselves (except what he actually wants is someone to hold him through the sad bits and tell him he's beautiful p.s. true love is real). When they start to get an idea of what's actually going on in his conversation, they begin to hatch a plan—he can babysit Derek in the rom-com while Laura and Cora rock it up in the auditorium shoving movies that don't suck (or suck slightly less? Okay, they both suck equally hard, but at least these ones come garnished with explosions, is what we're saying). Everyone'll go home happy.

"Come on, man," Stiles said, hating the whine in his voice but willing to use any tool at his disposal. "You have to come!"

"Sorry, Stiles. You can still go see the movie, though, right?"

"What?!" Stiles screeched. Two young women standing in line nearby gave him a judging look. "I can't go to a chick flick by myself--" The young women's expressions were now full-on scowls. "--who'll hold my hand during the easily-avoidable-yet-heartbreaking misunderstandings? Who'll share in my tears during the romantic kisses of reconciliation? I need you!" The women were now looking amused and thoughtful. Stiles' experience in these matters taught him that this was not an improvement, but he a had a betrayal of the highest order to focus his thoughts right now.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

*Recommended word count: 500-1K.
*I wrote the snippet in Stiles' POV, which is my preferred, but any POV is fine.
*The more I crossed out, the simpler it'll be? That's my theory, anyway.
*You don't even need to show the bit with the movie if you don't want to. You can just end it with Laura and Cora shoving Derek and Stiles and laughing manically.
