hey all. working on the outline of guns nâ roses fanfic (based on the oneshot i wrote here) and i wanted to ask if yâall would rather me make it a duff/axl/izzy/slash story? iâve also decided iâm not writing for steven anymore because my dad knows him & and iâve known him since i was a baby and it weirds me out.)
additionally when i end up publishing, as previously mentioned, it will be promoted on tumblr but posted AO3 & wattpad for convince reasons. if you would like to join my taglist, send me an ask w/ your username and iâll add you. đ
Hii! I wanna request a Slash fic but was wondering if youâd want free reign or for me to specify a scenario?
hey anon! thank you for asking. iâd be more than happy to write for slash, but i does help me out a lot as a writer (and i suppose for you as a reader, in a way) if you request a specific scenario so a) i have a rough plot idea b) you get something you want that is tailored to YOU! đ either works though, i just love making people happy with their requests.
i'd purposely get him mad so he could scold me like this
Helloo, how are you? :)
I wanted to ask you if you can write something random that i just saw in tiktok haha please if you want
idk if you saw those videos where a girl is recording her boyfriend being a soft baby like "who's my good boy?" and he says "me", and they're cuddling and she's babying and praising him without him knowing and when he notices he gets all manly again lmao
i wanted you to write that with Dave Mustaine. like 80s Dave but at the present time
sorry for my bad english. i hope you can write it. thanks!! <3
p.s: i love your writing, you're so funnyđ€§
THANK YOU SM!!!!! love you. anyway, hereâs the fic, i hope itâs alright! i whipped it up in a hour instead of doing my reflection papers.

pairing; modern!dave mustaine x fem!reader
summary; dave is angry at a producer and comes home, just wanting to see you. you have other plans, deciding to join in on a couple tiktok trendâhe doesnât find it as funny as you do.
warnings; very fluffy, modern era but with 1980s dave, slight cussing, no use of y/n, mentions of toxic masculinity, dave gets butthurt, tough boy isnât so tough anymore. if im missing anything else let me know!
word count; 750
requests open, not proofread, based on this ask.
You never thought youâd see the day when Dave Mustaineâthe snarling, sharp-tongued leader of Megadeth, the same man who wrote lyrics about death and betrayalâwould be curled up in your arms like an overgrown cat. But here he was, his spiralling, copper curls a mess against your chest, his breath warm against your collarbone, completely unaware that he was currently being recorded, despite your quiet, hushed giggles that left your soft lips. He was so fucking tired he didn't even think anything of it: his first mistake.
It had started out as an innocent cuddle session. Heâd come home after hours in the studio, grumbling about producers who didnât âgetâ his sound, and immediately toppled onto you like a weighted blanket. You knew better than to say anything at firstâDave was a like cat in human form; if you pointed out that he was being affectionate, heâd immediately "hiss" and pretend he wasnât. So you just let him rest, lazily running your fingers through his hair while his arm draped possessively over your waist, his strong, calloused thumb stroking the hem of your pants.
Thatâs when the idea struck.
With your phone angled just right, you hit record, keeping your voice soft, teasing. This will fucking get him. You knew he wasn't active on social media, let alone TikTok. And you loved your pranksârather, you loved to push your boyfriendâs buttons.
âWho's my good boy?â you cooed, fingers tracing light patterns on his back.
A sleepy mumble; â...Me.â
Your grin nearly split your face into two. Got him.
âYeah? My bestest boy?â
âMhmm,â he hummed, nuzzling closer into your warm neck.
You held back a laugh, heart melting at how completely relaxed he was. This was the Dave most people didnât get to seeâthe one who craved softness, who would willingly tangle his limbs with yours just to feel safe for a while. The one that just yearned for intimacy and love, and admiration. Even if he didn't admit it. His gentleness with you proved it rightâdespite what the people had to say in the media. It was all bullshit.
Then, as if some internal alarm sounded, his whole body suddenly stiffened against you. Uh-ohâŠ
âWait,â he muttered. You felt the pause; the slow, tired wheels turning in his brain. He lifted his head slightly, hazel eyes squinting in suspicion. âThe fuck did you just say?â
You bit your lip, trying not to giggle. âI said, âWhoâs my good boy?ââ
His brows furrowed. Then his eyes flickered to your handâmanicured nails clasped around your phone. His domestic, exhausted eyes met his own within your phone. What the fuck was wrong with youâon every level. Mentally, emotionally, physicallyâhell, spiritually. You donât do that shit to thee Dave Mustaine!
ââŠAre you recording this?â
âMaybe.â
Dave shot up faster than a rocket and you barely had time to react before his tall frame was towering over you, his expression caught somewhere between betrayal and damage control. No, no, no, noâfuck no!
âDelete it.â His voice was gruff now, like youâd just walked in on him playing with kittens and he was scrambling to reassert dominance. He had an image to upholdâboth with the fans and you. âRight fucking now.â
You pouted. âBut you were soooo cute.â
"Iâm not cute,â he grumbled, already crawling back into his toxic masculinity shell. He ran a hand through his thick golden hair, shoulders straightening, jaw clenching. âIâm fucking dangerous."
You tilted your head, still recording. Your phone shook as you held back a laugh. âOh? Whoâs my big, strong, dangerous boy?â
A muscle twitched in his cheek as a vein popped in his forehead. Dave pointed at your phone. âI swear to Godââ
But before he could finish, you gave him the look. The one that said, Iâll stop recording if you just play along for two more seconds, pretty, pretty please sweetheart.
Dave groaned, rubbing his face. You could tell he was so done with your antics. And then, with the deepest, most reluctant sigh you'd probably had ever heard from his lips, he muttered under his breath:
ââŠMe.â
You burst out laughing, nearly dropping your phone in the processâbut you relentlessly gripped it for dear life. Gotcha!
Dave, realizing what he just did, let out a noise somewhere between a groan and a feral growl before launching himself at you, trying to snatch your phone from your iron grip.
âYouâre fucking dead,â he grumbled, burying his face in your neck, but the warmth of his arms tightening around you told you otherwise. Dave even shocked himself sometimes, it's like his heart reacts before his head. The little things made him realize that he truly was infatuated with you. Inside and out, no matter how cruel you may be. You took to him when no one else did.
And maybe, just maybe, he didnât mind being your "good" boy after all.
