In fanfiction, the idea that they come from two completely different realms, the human world and the Goblin Kingdom, adds to the allure. Their relationship can be seen as a bridge between these two worlds, and how they navigate the cultural and magical differences is fascinating. For example, in some stories, Sarah has to learn the ways of the Goblin Kingdom to be with Jareth, and Jareth has to understand human emotions better. This dynamic makes for a rich and engaging story.
Perhaps a plotline where they have to deal with the differences in their worlds. Sarah comes from the human world and Jareth from the magical realm. Their married life could be about finding a balance between the two, like how they decorate their home, half with human items and half with magical ones.
There might be a fanfiction where Sarah has to team up with Dark Jareth against a common enemy. They start to understand each other better during this adventure. For example, they face a powerful dark force that threatens both their worlds.
One interesting plot could be that Sarah, after being kidnapped, discovers a hidden side of Jareth's kingdom that he has kept secret from everyone. She finds out that there are other captives there who are being held against their will for reasons she has to uncover. As she tries to escape and free the others, she starts to see Jareth in a different light, not just as a captor but as a complex being with his own motives and past traumas.
The relationship might become more intense. With the pregnancy, they have to rely on each other more. Jareth may show his softer side as he takes care of Sarah, and Sarah might start to see him in a new light, beyond the intimidating Goblin King.
A common theme is the exploration of their unspoken connection. Since in the original there's a certain tension between them, fanfictions often expand on that, like in 'The Unspoken Bond' where it's all about their unacknowledged feelings for each other.
Perhaps the pregnancy is a result of some magical mishap. Sarah then has to deal with not only the physical changes but also the strange magical implications. Jareth could be trying to find a way to reverse it at first but then grows to accept it as their new reality, which would create a lot of drama and character development.
One interesting plot idea could be that Sarah, years after her initial adventure in the Labyrinth, finds herself drawn back in a strange dream. In this dream, Jareth appears more vulnerable than she remembers. She discovers that there's a dark force threatening the Labyrinth and Jareth needs her help. They have to work together, and along the way, they start to understand each other on a deeper level, perhaps even developing feelings for one another.
In the fanfiction, the pregnancy could be a symbol of a new beginning for the relationship between Jareth and Sarah. It forces them to re - evaluate their feelings for each other. Sarah might become more empathetic towards Jareth's loneliness in his magical world, and Jareth could start to understand the importance of human emotions. They could embark on a journey to find a safe place for their baby to be born, facing various challenges along the way that test their love and commitment.
One common theme is the power dynamic between them. Since Jareth is a powerful Goblin King and Sarah is a mortal girl, exploring how their relationship develops in terms of power is popular.
One popular one might be 'The Labyrinth of Love' which delves deep into their relationship. It shows how Sarah overcomes her initial fears of Jareth and they start to understand each other on a deeper level.
