Title: Hearth Fires and Holocausts (1/2)
Fandom: Gossip Girl
Pairing: Dan Humphrey/Blair Waldorf
Rating: PG-13
Summary: A Life As We Know It AU. Dan Humphrey and Blair Waldorf, this is your goddaughter.
Word Count: ~14,000 (roughly)
Author Notes: I firmly believe there should be a Life As We Know It AU for EVERY FANDOM EVER. Because who doesn't love the trope of the couple that hates each other being saddled with a kid they have to raise together? NO ONE, THAT'S WHO. Also, none of the things that happened on the show happened in this AU and there's no Chuck because he blows. And I kind of made up the whole legal guardian/adoption process. Anyway, special thanks to
kindness_says for the beta, and to the movies Breakfast at Tiffany's, The Philadelphia Story, His Girl Friday, and Life As We Know It for existing so I could rewatch them while writing this opus. Title taken from that lovely scene in the backyard between Katherine Hepburn and Jimmy Stewart in The Philadelphia Story.
( It's Serena who sets them up and Blair is skeptical from the start. )
