We are not the same. (JackFrost X reader) by _UnicornsKilledMyGF_
9 parts Ongoing
"Whenever I'm feeling lonely I just look at the moon, because Someone, somewhere, is looking right at it too" Y/N skellington. The spirit of Halloween who gives you a thrill, a frisson of excitement, who is Also known as the pumpkin queen, Samhain? Or sometimes even Bloody Mary. History had repeated itself, causing the man in the moon to appoint a new guardian, the spirit of Halloween herself. However Y/N has no interest in gaining more believers, seeing as everyone who does believe in her has the wrong idea of her. Being feared is not fun and she'd rather not be seen. However, maybe someone who had once been in her position (in a way) can give her a different perspective and hopefully encourage Y/N to keep fighting for what her title should mean. Also Jack is flirting with Y/N the whole time. -the nightmare before Christmas is ever so slightly referenced in this as you can already tell. I do not own it nor do I own ROTG.
A CARVED DESTINY by tiffineyxoxo
19 parts Complete Mature
I'm just a girl obsessed with a fictional being, I'm too old to be obsessing over. Halloween has always been my favorite Holiday and you might think it's because of the candy, but you'd be wrong, it was because my older sister once showed me a picture of Jack 'O' Lantern when I was ten and I had unnatural feelings for him, every birthday after that had to be Jack 'O' Lantern themed, it got so bad that I started acting out when my parents bought me something that wasn't his color, or had his face on it. As I got older and started exploring my body, my sister introduced me to pleasure toys, she showed me the proper way to use them and how to clean them after, so at the ripe age of fourteen, she helped me pick out my first vibrator, we were on a adult toys website and it was around Halloween , there were tons of characters shaped into pleasure toys, but as you may have guessed by now I selected a bright orange vibrator with the head shaping like a pumpkin, my sister was frustrated with me and ended up buying it since I wouldn't change my mind, I'm all grown up now and buy my own toys, hence I have a verity of orange toys in a special bookcase I just had to take to college with me, I know my Jack 'O' Lantern thing has gotten worse over the years, but I'm not hurting anyone, and I am very content once something orange and pumpkin like is buzzing in my panties.

Follow along as you hear their backstories (even the villain's)! 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🩶🤍🤎 Note: Only the drawings are mine, the photos below may not be accurate to the character but they're the closest that I could find.
