I did it Fao

I wrote the gay fairytale

Although it's gonna end up being a multichaptered fic instead of a oneshot

Disclaimer: I don't own Homestuck


The dark cave was filled with steam from the underground springs, coiling perfectly around the piles of gold and jewels. A huge yawn broke the hissing of the springs, and a pile of coins shifted as a face emerged from them.

The young woman blinked her pure red eyes, sniffing the air. She could not see, so she used her nose and tongue to sense the world all around her. She was curvy, with bronze skin peppered with freckles and dark blonde hair. Her black lips were full and her nose came up to a point. She sniffed again, and her tongue flickered out from between her lips. It was teal and forked, and very long.

She called herself Terezi. Terezi Pyrope. She had not given herself the name. She remembered it from a long time ago, before there was the fire and she wasn't able to see.

"Aww, nothing wandered in here during the night," she complained as she struggled out of the pile of coins, causing them to slide down the pile. She wore a simple red shift, ragged at the edges. She was smart enough to know not to sleep naked on her treasure. Some of it had points, and the points hurt.

She sighed as she walked towards the entrance of her cave. "Guess I need to disturb some sheep on the farm today," she decided. "Again. Like almost every other day."

As she walked out of the cave, there was a loud screech. The heavy sound of wings grew louder and louder, and huge gusts of air pushed back Terezi's hair and blew her dress around. A brilliant cobalt dragon with black markings missing a leg and an eye landed roughly on the ground in front of Terezi, emitting a triumphant squawk in her face.

Terezi hardly budged. "It's too early in the morning for your bullshit, Vriska."

The dragon started to shrink, blue scales turning into brown skin, until a lanky girl with long tangled black hair and one striking blue eye stood in front of Terezi. She had a scar running though her other eye, forcing it closed, and where her left arm should have been was a stump. She had on a loose black shirt with blue pants.

"Ah, she finally awakens! How were your dreams in your piles of gold?" Vriska greeted with a toothy smile, baring her canines.

"Alright. How were your dreams in your stinky cave?"

"It doesn't stink anymore, I told you that! And it wasn't my fault."

"Kanaya is one of the most meticulous people I know, Vri." Terezi crossed her arms. "Maybe she loosened up a little after you stole-"

"Took."

"-her, but that didn't turn her entire personality upside down. You didn't take out the carcasses like you were supposed to while she went to visit her sister."

"Fine, maybe I did forget to take them out," Vriska admitted, rolling her eye. "But it's all water under the bridge now."

"Eh…fair enough. Now why are you here? You usually aren't up this early, I don't have to smell you until the afternoon most of the time." Terezi started picking at one of her nails.

"Well…"

"Are you holding something in front of me? I can't smell it, and I certainly can't see it."

"I'm holding out my hand, asswipe."

"You're the asswipe." Terezi reached her hand out in front of her, until she grasped Vriska's hand. She held it up to her nose and sniffed it, catching the scent of metal. "Did you get another bangle?"

"Keep looking."

Terezi sniffed deeper, locating the ring on Vriska's ring finger. "Hmm, a metal ring. Smells like silver." She licked it, and Vriska squeaked. "Wow, still squeamish?"

"Shut-Shut the fuck up!"

She cackled. "I love doing this to you." She sniffed again. "Silver with green stones…emerald ones. Huh. What's the occasion?"

"If you want a hint: If I had my left hand, I'd be wearing the finger on it."

Terezi quirked her mouth. "I still don't get it."

"Good god, when was the last time you had human interaction?"

"Besides Kanaya and the farmers whose sheep I eat? A couple of years."

"It's an engagement ring."

It took a moment for the words to process through Terezi's brain, but when they did she gasped and shoved Vriska in the chest, causing her to grunt. "Shut the fuck up! No way!"

"Yes way! Kanaya proposed last night. She went to her sister's house to get the ring."

"It's about damn time! After what, five years?" Terezi cackled. "I've been waiting for you two to seal the deal. But I didn't expect it to be the human way."

"Tez, she would've been horrified if I covered myself in blood and made a circle in the grass."

"You've done weirder."

"True, but the last time I was covered in blood I lost a limb." Vriska sighed.

"Also true. Is that what you came over to tell me?

"Yes. Also, Kanaya wants to have a party to celebrate. She's inviting everyone we know."

"Really?" Terezi raised an eyebrow. "Even Mr. Crabby and his boy?"

"Oh yes, she knows they'll come. She's one of the few people Mr. Crabby likes."

"Well, it'll be great to see some of them again. I want to know how Rose and Jade are holding up in the village."

"Oh…" Vriska hissed. "Didn't you hear?"

"Hear what?"

"They got exiled."

"What?!" Terezi shouted in shock. "Why?!"

"Someone reported them to the village sheriff. They've been cracking down harder on magic users recently, and they're both lucky to have only gotten kicked out. I heard a boy who can control water was locked for life, and is tortured every other day."

"That's terrible! What do they have against us, anyways? We've hardly done anything to them!"

"We steal their sheep."

"We need to eat. Other than that, and the occasional capturing of humans, we hardly doing a thing!"

"True, but we can strike back at them later. Rose and Jade are safe now, they're in the swamp by the valley."

"Good." Terezi breathed a heavy sigh. "I just hope they don't come for us next."

"They won't. We're too scary." Vriska changed the topic. "Anyways, the party is two weeks from Saturday. Will you be able to make it?"

"Vriska, I never have any plans, you know this."

"Just checking. See you there!" She turned swiftly back into a dragon and roared in farewell.

Terezi chuckled and roared back. Vriska flew away. The morning was quiet once again.

She was grateful for something to do for once. Lately, her life had been nothing but venturing out of her cave to find something to eat, and sorting out her treasures. She needed something to do.

Speaking of eating. Her stomach grumbled, and Terezi huffed. "Shut the hell up, I'm going." She bent over on all fours and willed herself to change. Claws erupted from her nails, and her dress and hair melted into her skin. Scales jerked violently up out of her skin, and her entire body started to grow. Growths shot up from her back, until finally Terezi was a huge teal dragon with red markings on her body. Screeching in triumph, she leapt up from the ground, flapping her wings as she soared through the air.

She would find herself something to eat for now, but her rage at the injustice shown towards Rose and Jade was still fresh in her mind. The humans had long treated magic as dangerous and those who used it as fiends, and Terezi was sick of it.

Justice would have to be served.


This was going to start out as an oneshot but halfway through writing this I realized "Why make this an oneshot when I can come up with a good plot and make this into multiple chapters" and decided to go with it.

Hello! I'm TailsDoll13, but you can call me Taylor (Use whatever pronouns you want for me). If my username sounds familiar, I used to post a lot in this section. I mainly write Percy Jackson now, but I'm returning to this section.

This is a fantasy AU, inspired by a post my friend Fao (autisticporrim on Tumblr) made a couple of weeks ago. It was about an AU where Terezi is a shapeshifting dragon that captures Feferi, who is a princess, and they fall in love. Of course I had to write it.

If you want more of my stories, my latest Homestuck ones as "All is Fair in Paint and War" (TerAda), "Misheard it Through the Grapevine" (EquAra and FefSol), and "Snowball Fights" (KatNep). My latest Percy Jackson ones are all Solangelo and are named "Rewritten" and "Ringing of the Snow", along with my multichapter fic "How Not to Get Your OTP Together." Check them out!

I also post stuff on my ArchiveOfOurOwn, Gamzee_Makaraoni. Look at it if you want to!

My Tumblr is spoopywillsolace for Halloween. Once Halloween is over, I'll be using my original URL autisticwillsolace. I post lots of fandom, including Homestuck, Percy Jackson, Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, Ninjago, and other ones, like bands and some YouTubers.

I hope that you enjoyed this! I can't wait to continue work on it!
