Marguerie entered her office, delighted to see her big brother seated behind her desk, even if his feet were propped comfortably atop it.

“Trystan,” she grinned. “It’s always lovely to see you, but if you want that seat... you have to earn it!”

A/N: I'm using Prompt #269 from @creativepromptsforwriting. Tagging for reblog to @creativepromptfills. Submission to @choicesmaychallenge24 prompt "stormy eyes"

Ethan Ramsey let himself into the hotel room with a sigh of relief, the mask of professionalism falling in the privacy of the suite overlooking the gentle waves of the Atlantic Ocean outside.

He had tried to lose himself in intellectually stimulating conversations with colleagues and prepping for the panel. But the urge to march down to the exhibit hall and shake Declan Nash until the smug bastard spilled his secrets never entirely went away.

He needed a break from everything.

For just one night, he wanted to lose himself in the company of a woman who had plagued his lust-filled dreams for months. To pretend they were just two people, dressed to the nines, enjoying passable wine and canapes, and hitting the casino for lighthearted fun.

He deserved to put himself first, even if it was just for a few hours. Naveen wouldn’t begrudge him that. The older man would likely cheer from the sidelines at seeing his mentee let loose.

Damn that door threshold… it was on until he walked through that door and yes it is good that it did not happen but when the head and and the heart are not on the same page it is hard to reconcile

Mostly Pleasant Surprises 2 of 4 Discovery

This is the final installment of "how they finally got together." I promise. 😊

Book: Open Heart (Book 2 Timeline) Pairing: Tobias Carrick & Casey MacTavish (F!MC) Rating: Teen Words: 2,000

Series Summary: It's been months since the chemical attack, and "kind of" exes-turned-friends Tobias & Casey have been stubbornly denying their growing feelings for each other. But when a series of events threatens to come between them, will they find their way back together?

Part 2 Summary: A startling discovery fills Casey with doubt, just as Tobias comes to an important conclusion.

A/N: OK, again, there are like 2 people alive who may care about this, but I'm filled with so much joy as I'm finally writing this pivotal part of their tale. Let me tell you, there is something so freeing about writing solely for me and my blorbos. It's hard to describe! :)

I expect this to be told in four parts, though it may be three. I guess we'll find out with the next installment. :)

Her.

It was... her. The too-pretty-to-be-human creature Casey nearly collided with at Kenmore, and if she made a pair of old scrubs look good, holy hell, the way she looked all dressed up. She was exquisite. Breathtaking. So much so that it took Casey a moment to notice the man sitting at her side...closely at her side... and that's when her heart began to race.

You know you have it bad when a former hook up knows you have it bad for someone.

At least Tobias is making his way to the edge of De Nial river

Hello Pixelberry Choices Fandom—Mother's Day is a week away in the U.S., and I thought we could use a fun little event. So, I'm challenging anyone interested to write a little Mother's Day drabble for any of their MCs/OCs or pairings. Once they're all submitted, I thought we could do a little reading challenge, too (more to come on that!)

I've linked three Mother's Day prompt lists below. Please feel free to use those for inspiration, but any Mother's Day theme is fine! And remember - Mother's Day doesn't have to be all fluffy and sweet! It can be a difficult holiday for many, and please feel free to bring the angst and drama, too. (In fact, anyone who creates a Wake the Dead Mother's Day fic about the Zombie Queen and her "children" will have my eternal gratitude! 😊)

Some Rules:

While anyone may use the prompts, only fanfics for Pixelberry Choices stories will be included on the masterlist.

After the masterlist is completed, we'll have a reading challenge, too!

Please feel free to share - and anyone is welcome to participate

Tagging some people who may be interested below - but please - anyone can join in!

Why can I totally see this being my Tobias & Casey. Totally being shamed all over the internet for doing this! lol

First, Tobias's spoiled ass would be bitching about not being in first class. Casey would be lecturing him on how sad it is that he has to be "normal." A playful fight ensues, and then... here they are. lol Vivian would get wind of it and rip them a new one. 😂😂😂

OK - which one of your pairings would this apply to?

Can we add this fic idea to your list????

I am sorry but Vivian treating them a new one would be entertaining

Series Summary: It's been months since the chemical attack, and "kind of" exes-turned-friends Tobias & Casey have been stubbornly denying their feelings for one another. But when a series of events threatens to come between them, how do they find their way back together? Part 1 Summary: It’s Tobias’s birthday, and Casey's not sure how to acknowledge it. With the help of Sienna, she she puts a plan in place, and it seems to be going well... and then, it doesn't.

A/N: The maybe 2 or 3 people who were around when I first wrote this birthday fic will notice the similarities to the original, but it's completely revamped. I just left it attached to the original link. I always said by the time I got to writing how they actually got together, there would be no one left in the fandom to care, lol, and I may be right! But I'm doing this for me... because my baby's story deserves to be told. This takes place just four days after they spent Valentine's Day together.

I expect this to be told in four parts, though it may be three.

Series Masterlist || Tobias x Casey MasterlistFull Masterlist

Casey was involved in an intense stare-off... but the peculiar thing was, it was with her kitchen cabinet. She stared at it with such intensity it appeared she was expecting it to provide an answer to a question she hadn’t asked. An awfully big ask of a dull slab of wood that had seen its best days back in the 90’s. She removed a box of cake mix, placed it on the countertop, then put it back. Repeating the process several times before Sienna entered the room to break the stalemate.

“Casey, what are you doing?”

Reblogging and retagging as this is a complete rewrite and is now part one of a short series.

Tagging below break.

I am still here elsa for these two getting together and we’ll

Anything OH and CoP related lol

Poor Tobias. I do feel for him as he has lost both one but two good friends due to his son’s dick.

Omg!!!!!

Poor nay!!!!!

Trystan and Carolina find themselves with lots of time to kill. But when Carolina discovers how Trystan has been occupying himself, she has some feelings about it...

The prompt can be found in the ask, and it's bolded below (I want to keep it a secret until you get to it!) Participating in @choicesaprilchallenge24

The sun was beginning to set on the busy city street where Carolina and Trystan were staked out. Sitting in the driver’s seat, Carolina lowered the visor, adjusting her glasses and fluffing her hair to ensure her earpiece was still covered. Luke said he’d let them know as soon as their subject was on the move, but as the stakeout approached its third hour, Carolina figured they were just waiting for the word to head home.

Stickler For The Rules

Pairings: Ethan Ramsey x Victoria Clarke

Word Count: 1k

Summary: Date night looks a little different for Ethan and Victoria

Rating: General Audiences

Category: Fluff

Having opted to stay in this evening for date night, Victoria wondered what Ethan had planned. He always suggested fun ideas but Victoria usually found herself out exploring Boston. This time, she was in her own home.

The meal was delicious having opted for a spaghetti bolognaise, there was just the right amount of flavour in the meal. It was definitely better than going out and spending a lot of money. Whilst the Ramsey’s weren’t struggling for money, they still liked to spend it wisely.

The deal this time was that Ethan would choose the meal and Victoria would choose the activity afterwards. Ethan thought that would mean going to the bedroom, however Victoria had other ideas.

Ethan half the fun of monopoly is what you can get away with lol

Cards is much better when drunk- so is ability balderdash

The amount of issues that could be avoided if people had the decency and maturity to speak to each other like civilized human beings instead of resorting to the more commonly used methods here, like anon hate, vagueing, and passive-aggressive posts that are clearly targeting a person or group.

In the three years I have been on this hellsite, I have witnessed how these "methods" turn minor issues into outright, unnecessary wars.

Here is some information for those who are unaware:

Then, when said vague/passive-aggressive rant goes unanswered and ignored, the person or mob behind it festers, simmers, and becomes more outraged.

Bruh. They probably never even saw it, and if they did, they may not known it was directed at them. Now, the problem is 10 times bigger and, best of all, the original problem was never even addressed, much less solved!

Here's another tip:

Don't always assume the worst about someone!

Especially when you never bothered to communicate with them. You're making blind assumptions when you have little or no facts. Trust me, unless you're a mind reader, you don't know. You're not that smart, babes. Trust me. I'm not, either. TALK like grownups. It's much easier than all the bullshit that arises because of the above.

Now, you may be saying, "Hey, yeah, but aren't you vagueing/targeting right now, too?"

I'm sure some will take it that way. Since they likely won't reach out to me directly, they'll take their skewed logic as gospel and insist that they know my motivation. They'll also insist it's regarding "this" fandom event or whatever our drama du jour is.

Well, absolutely no one knows my motivation except me. So I'll make it clear. This is not geared toward any specific event, past or present, but an amalgamation of everything I've seen and experienced in the past three years. My motivation is two-fold. 1) I'm letting off steam, but, more importantly, 2) it is my sincere hope that people will see this, think about how they act and interact with others, and try to be better people.

I'm sure the fandom mind readers will dismiss what I just said and assign motivation to me. Have at it. I don't care.

No one knows my motivation except me, and no one knows my desired end goal, either. My desired end goal Is that everyone, myself included, will reflect more on how they behave and treat other people. I assure you, doing this will save others, the fandom, and, more importantly, it will save yourself a whole hell of a lot of unnecessary distress.

It's not that hard. Be better.

And

As someone who has heard about the fandom drama llamas I could not agree more. And I do not think you are overly vagueing per se I mean these llamas should know who they are and Meryl has had enough of their BS
