Peaky Fanfic Digest - April 24th

Each week your mod team will be collecting fanfic that has been posted throughout the week on ao3 and tumblr and providing a digest for easy reference. Fic will be split up by categories, and the categories will change weekly depending on the characters/pairings posted. If you’d like your content included in the digest, be sure to tag it “peakysource.” This is especially important if you only post to tumblr as we cannot possibly comb through all the tags in search of fic. Similarly, if you’d like your work removed from this list, just message the mod team.

For the moment, we are not including reader or oc fics in the digest, but this could change in the future.

Please be sure to read the tags before starting a fic. The mod team has not included warnings or summaries for the sake of brevity.

AU where people age until they reach 18 and then stop aging until they meet their soul mate so they can grow old together.

but imagine already being in a relationship at 18 and then at 22 you’re both sitting there looking at each other and realizing that you both haven’t aged a day

imagine platonically moving in with ur best friend at 18 and then realizing a few years later that you’ve been aging together

imagine purposely never finding your soul mate so you can reign eternal

holy shit i think we may have stumbled upon the greatest romance/adventure concept ever

What if you killed your soul mate so you’d make sure you never aged.

This just makes me really want a story where the main antagonist is someone who has been killing their soulmate for centuries whenever they find them, and the main protagonist is the newly re-incarnated version of their soulmate

okay but you guys dont realize the potential.

imagine meeting a handsome young man who’s seen as a player and sleeps around a lot and you notice a scar along his arm and ask where he got it. he just look down at his feet and said “i used to be a soldier in world war one”. He’s been sleeping around and hooking up so much cause he’s been trying to find his soulmate for years but hasn’t yet.

Imagine going on your first date with someone and you really hit it off and then the next day you notice a grey hair and call them on the phone excitedly screaming and they both just sit on the phone hysterically crying and laughing.

Imagine sitting in silence with your partner and having them say out of the blue “i feel so old when im around you… but… in a good way” and thats the moment you know that they love you.

imagine having a dog thats 18 in human years and it starts to get gray patches of fur because they loves you so much.

imagine noticing you look older and freaking out but then stopping and getting super confused because “im not dating anyone right now…. which of my friends is my soulmate… WHICH ONE IS IT!?!?!?” and then they hopelessly date everyone they know in order to find out which one it fucking was. it was the pizza delivery guy the whole time. they went on 27 dates that all ended in confusion and heartbreak and it was the god damn pizza delivery guy from a month ago the whole fucking time. 

imagine someone dating their partner for 5 years and then having an affair. only after the affair do they start aging.

imagine nuns who start to age after they ceremoniously “marry god”

imagine people getting surgeries to look older cause they dont want people to think theyre alone.

imagine having parents who wont let you date anyone but they start to notice you aging and then you have to have a terrifying “surprise im gay and i have a boyfriend haha oops” conversation

imagine seeing couples with teenage kids and the couple both looks 18.

i could go on for hours.

I love this concept because it implies that in this world ageing is celebrated and desired instead of resisted. Imagine beauty standards in this world, grey hair is proudly undyed, every new wrinkle is considered beautiful or elegant.

Imagine the romantic implications as well, that finding your soul mate and being with them, means you effectively agree to become mortal, and therefore agree to die just to be with them.

Imagine someone who has many friends, but struggles to find their soul mate, and gradually watches all of their friends grow old and die happy with their partners.

Imagine two best friends who are the same age, but find their soulmates at different times, so now one likes to pretend they’ve lived longer and are older and wiser while poking fun at their “silly naive” young friend. (e.g. “oh you younguns wouldn’t understand, it was before your time” “we are literally the same age”)

@agentmarymargaretskitz this is like the jackpot of soulmate tropes!!!

Saving for writing reasons

This whole thread is beautiful

@jhoomwrites I don’t know if you’re still doing those little ficlets, but I’d love to see you do one with this!!
