Re: Original!Graves/Credence Titanic AU 1/?
(Anonymous) 2016-12-13 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)Credence steps out of the carriage, using the driver's hand for support as his eyes dart around the chaotic scene around him. He wants very badly to fold in on himself, to hide away somewhere dark and quiet. But his mother is coming out behind him with a hard glare he can feel down to his bones. Gellert comes out behind them, immediately chatting his mother up about the prestige of the boat and what their quarters should be like. Credence doesn't look at them, eyes fixed on the large ship destined to take him away from the only life he's known. While that has been the only thing he's ever dreamed up, this is certainly not the circumstance he imagined. It seems his new life will be at least as controlling as the one he is currently living. The crowd around him seems ecstatic to board the ship, the whole dock is teaming with joy and energy. Credence stands still among the crowd, eyes wide and worried.
Gellert curls a hand around his elbow, pulling him forward sharply. “Come along, darling. Isn't this exciting?”
“It seems small,” Credence quips, daring a moment of boldness.”I thought it would be more impressive.” He'll pay for the comment later but the incredulous look on Gellert's face is almost worth it.
“Your son is never satisfied,” He comments to Mary Lou, who hums her agreement while shooting a glare at her eldest child. Gellert pulls on his arm again, shooting Credence an angry look as the march toward the boat.
Credence has dreamed his whole life of getting on a boat and just leaving everything behind. But with Gellert's hand still firmly gripping his arm, all Credence can feel is dread.
Tina shoots Percival a worried glance from across the table, cards held close to her chest. Graves gives nothing away in his expression, not paying Tina any more attention than the rest of the group gathered around the table. The pot is large – everything of value between both their names and two tickets to the Titanic. And Graves is playing fast and loose, seemingly with no care about the outcome. Tina has no choice but to trust him, having been in similar situations with the man before. Her choice in closest friend has often been criticized but he always pays off in the end.
As it turns out, both her faith in and her reservations about her best friend pay off. They win the tickets but have to make a daring escape for their lives, for the third time this year. Though, one of those was definitely Tina's doing.
“Seriously?” Tina shouts as they bolt away from the dive bar, trying desperately to make it to the docks on time. “Again?”
“You knew the risks!” He calls back, daring a brief glance over his shoulder. “Hurry!” he adds, seeing the brothers from the bar ganging up on them.
“Why do I -”
“Moral questions come later!” he shouts, grabbing her hand and pushing her before him as they get to the boat ramp. They make it just in time, jumping onto the ramp just before the boat is about to depart.
Graves is laughing triumphantly as they lean against the rail of the boat, watching the angry brothers shouting from the docks. Tina can't help but join in.
“Come on,” He says after a moment, pushing away from the rail, “Let's go find our room.”
“Okay,” Tina admits, once they have settled into the shared cabin. There are six of them squeezed into the narrow room but there is a friendly, companionable mood in the air. “Maybe this wasn't such a bad idea after all.”
(Some notes: Just a little bit of set up before I run off to work. Also, I feel the need to mention this. As I was rewatching the movie and working on this last night, I realized that Titanic was the first thing I ever wrote fanfic about. I had a little blue notebook with a latch on it and I rewrote the whole movie with a happy ending when I was eight. My teacher read it. I left the sex scene in. So. This means a lot to me. And yes, Tina is Fabrizio. Can you guess which role Newt will be? :D)

(Anonymous) 2016-12-14 11:35 am (UTC)(link)This fic though, is INCREDIBLE!! I can't wait to read more. I've fallen in love with your Graves already, and I'm over the moon about Tina being his best friend in this. They're roguishly awesome so far, I can't wait to read more of them.
And Credence, poor dear Credence. I can't wait for him and Percival to meet. :D
All in all, can't wait to read more of this. If you've got a AO3 account would you consider posting it up there too? I'd love to subscribe.
