Jamie PoV

Shivering, Jamie pulled her sweater closed around herself. She was so cold. And it was just mid-fall. Usually it was only the winter that she couldn’t stand.

Her vision was really hazy today, too. Maybe she needed real glasses? Was that even possible?

“Jamie?”

Simon’s voice broke through her jumbled thoughts. She squinted up at him, trying to get his face into focus. Instead, the world started tilting.

“Whoa, hey.” He caught her arms as she swayed on her feet. “We should get you to the nurse. You’re burning up.”

That didn’t seem right. How could she be hot if she was freezing?

As he started guiding her through the halls, her world kept going in and out of focus, wavering as if she was on a boat rather than on solid land. Her stomach didn’t like that. Not one bit.

Whining, she closed her eyes. “Want Ana.” she mumbled.

Simon laughed slightly. “Sorry, what was that?”

“Want Ana.” she said louder, tears building in her eyes. Where was her alpha? Why wasn’t she here?

“As much as I’d like to help, you’re not making any sense right now.” her friend said, rubbing her shoulder gently as he supported with his arm when she stumbled again. “Whichever language you’re speaking right now isn’t either of the two I understand.”

Oh. “Want Ana.” she said thickly, this time in English, as they went into the nurse’s office.

Nurse Sarah looked up as they came in, her concerned scent the only hint to her mood Jamie could get right now.

“Oh dear, looks like someone’s going into pre-heat.” The beta’s scent surrounded her like a soft comforting blanket as she took Jamie from Simon’s arm. “I can take care of her from here, thank you, Simon.” Once he’d left, she murmured softly to the omega. “You can rest in the back room, hun. I’ll call your fathers and page for Ana to come here, okay?”

Jamie nodded, just about collapsing onto the small school medical bed. Sniffling, she curled up on it, trying to hold onto some warmth.

Either she dozed off or time went funny, because the door opening quietly startled her with the sudden light coming in. Her nose caught Ana’s scent and she whined. Now she could feel the heat pouring in waves off her skin as her mate’s hand brushed her sweat soaked hair off her forehead.

“Hey,” Ana’s voice rumbled. “Looks like we’re going to be stuck in your bedroom for a few days, huh?”

Whining, Jamie leaned into her cool touch. “Don’t feel good.” she whimpered, tears rolling hot down her cheeks.

“I know, hun, I know.” Her alpha pulled her into her arms, cradling Jamie to her chest. “I’ll take care of you. Just like we talked about. I promise.”

With a shuddering sigh, Jamie curled into her. She felt safe now. Scared and unsure, but safe.

Shang-Chi/Katy, 12, pearl gray

And here's another fic in the "Shifting Relationships" series! The title came from a 30 Day Writing Challenge prompt and the prompt for the number was “'You always look beautiful.'”

Like Waves In The Ocean - Shang-Chi sees Katy in a different light when she's dressed up for a wedding they're both in.

READ @ AO3 | SERIES PAGE

“Don’t look!”

“I’m not looking!”

“I mean it, Shang-Chi. You look and I’ll kick your ass into next week.”

He laughed as he covered his eyes. “I promise. Hurry up or we’re going to be late to the wedding.”

“I just need to get the pearl necklace on. The damn latch isn’t catching.”

“If you let me look I can help.”

There was a long pause from Katy’s bedroom, followed by a huff. “Fine. But you laugh at me in this dress and I’ll also kick your ass into next week.”

Shang-Chi uncovered his eyes and went into her room. Her back was too him but he caught her reflection in the full length mirror and stopped. That was not his Katy. She’s stunning, he thought to himself, his mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water. “You’re...gorgeous.” he managed to get out. Katy was in a long pearl gray dress with a discrete slit up the right side to just above the knee, and it had an empire waist that showed her cleavage a bit more than he was used to. The pearls she was holding around her neck were accentuated with pearls at the bottom of the knot her hair was in. She wasn’t wearing any heavy make-up, and he assumed that would be done at the wedding venue.

“Thank for the lie, now help?”

“I’m not lying,” he said, snapping out of his near trance and moving towards her. “Katy...you didn’t even look this way at our prom.”

“Well of course I didn’t. I wore a neon yellow tux.” He took the pearls from her and opened up the latch, closing it on the hole at the other end of the necklace. He let his hands linger on her shoulders and he felt a shiver run through her.

“Do you have a wrap or something?”

“Yeah,” she said softly, and he could see she was blushing slightly. She moved away from him and got a pearl gray wrap from the back of her chair. She put it on her shoulders and did a little twirl. “You really think I look good?”

“Any number of guys are going to be happy to dance with you at the reception,” he said.

“What about you?”

He blinked. Oh, he’d love to dance with her. He found himself wanting to do more than just dance with her. Like kiss her. He wanted to kiss her right now, but she beat him to the punch, brushing er lips across his. She pulled back for a moment, and looked up at him before her pulled her in and gave her a proper kiss. The wrap fell from her shoulders as she reached up to frame his face, continuing the kiss.

Reluctantly, he pulled back. “The wedding.”

“What?”

“We’re going to be late for the wedding if we don’t go soon.” He reached up and brushed his fingers agaisnt her cheek. “But all I want to do is stay here and kiss you. You look stunning today, Katy, but really, you always look beautiful. I was just...blind.”

She leaned in and kissed him again. “Hold that thought for after we’ve had some drinks and some more kisses like that.”

“So this is a good thing?” he asked.

“I think it’s a good thing. I think it’s a great thing. But Michelle and Yung will kill us if we don’t get there in time to get Soo’s and my makeup done for the wedding, and we still need to pick up Soo and John.” She gave him a soft smile. “But this is definitely a good thing.”

“Okay,” he said, grinning back. “Good.”

“Good.” She picked the wrap off the floor. “Put the pedal to the metal, Big Guy.” Shang-Chi offered her his arm and she took it, and they left the apartment with him feeling like the luckiest guy in the world.

Day 1 of Whumpril is up!

this is no joke

Prompts: Red Alert | Distress Call | Panic Attack

Todays Characters: Steve, Wanda, Vision, Natasha, Sam

Chapter Description: Set after Avengers Age of Ultron, the new team of Avengers goes out of their first mission together!

@whumpril 🫡 Thanks for organizing this event!

[artbyblastweave]

Something I find interesting about the Lizard League is that these guys are supervillain supervillains, costumed in the classic mold- Salamander with the impossibly-skintight patterned-cloth costume, Iguana with the tight-tights-and-animal-headpiece combo, Komodo with that 70s-style strongman cowl-and-jersey, King Lizard with the Baron Strucker-style double-breasted greatcoat. These guys are unrepentant in their design. And in the comics, where the Sequid arc didn't happen till around issue 40, these guys were part of this established stable of villains who'd show up as fodder for montages and one-off fights where they needed to have a hero beating up someone who's clearly a supervillain, never mind who. That meant that their eventual escalation to nuclear terrorism after 30+ issues of low-rent stuff, and the ensuing clusterfuck, actually parsed as a meaningful escalation from the established status quo. These guys are breaking the rules. Supervillains do stuff like this sometimes, sure, but not this kind of supervillain- these guys are doing MCU-style unmarked-Kevlar terroristic supervillainy when they should be doing lizard-themed gimmick crimes or Super-friends stuff!

Well, no, that's not quite true. It feels true, but honestly there are plenty of examples of campy big-two villains doing flat-out nuclear terrorism pretty early on, actually. Just to pick some examples from X-Men, Magento did it in his first appearance, and the ANAD lineup's first real outing was to stop Count Nefaria from hijacking NORAD. Screwing around with the military's world-ending shit is downright commonplace for supervillains, once you start tallying it up. But between the goofy kid-gloves approach of a lot of early silver-age comics and the sheer volume of Stuff that's happened in the Marvel and DC continuities, the impact of attempted nuclear terrorism inevitably gets sanded down, it just becomes one more data point in the endless ebb and flow- hell, it can result in actual nuclear detonations, and eventually it's going to get sanded over. In the nineties, Vandal Savage actually nuked Montevideo using depreciated USSR stock. Is that salient, these days? This event that would have reshaped geopolitics had it happened in our world? So yeah, supervillains make a run on the nukes all the time- but it doesn't count if you do it in a onesie with your initials stenciled on it.

But Invincible, as a self-contained continuity, actually has the ability to maintain perspective and appropriately weigh a grab at the nuclear arsenal - it's very much not business as usual, it's not part of the typical cops-and-robbers runaround. It's not stealing a priceless diamond, it's not a bank job, it's not even rampaging through the city center with a giant robot. It's a credible attempt to end the world, it's a challenge to government power that they won't let stand, costumes or no. It's the government sponsored super team coming in guns blazing trying their damnedest to kill you from the word go, and its you trying to kill them equally hard because there's really no coming back from this if you lose. And it ends up that treating this situation with a commonsense level of gravity acts as a deconstructive backhand against every similar situation in the comics that ends with the villain shaking their fist and escaping at the last minute.

Tagged by the always wonderful @fsbc-librarian -- thank you so much, darling! 💖💖💖

1. how many works do you have on ao3?

42 works

2. what’s your total ao3 word count?

677,643 (how do i have so many?)

3. what fandoms do you write for?

MCU/Stucky -- this is my main focus and current sandbox. i love to play with these two. OUAT/CS -- that is where i started my fic writing journey and it still makes up the bulk of my works. i no longer write it, but it will always have a soft spot in my heart. Dramione -- i wrote one dramione fic a while back, and it is a ship dynamic i really enjoy. i still have one big, rather epic fic idea for it, too. Since this idea -- (and @mysteriouscatstellation) -- have been bugging me about it for over a year, i absolutely have to write it. Eventually. Obvi. (Actually, it's up next after i finish my East German Stucky Spy Lunacy, shhhhhhhhh.) Leverage -- i also have one Leverage fic. i have literally no idea how that happened. None. This fic basically walked out onto the page and said, my turn. 😂 It did give me a really good opportunity to create an original character though.

4. do you respond to comments? why or why not?

Always. ALWAYS. i love and appreciate each one, from a row of emojis to a page of analysis. i go back often and re-read them, just to motivate myself. People who leave comments are the real heroes. (Although i do understand that not everyone has the spoons to comment, and that's OK, too. Just know that if you leave me a single emoji i will love it no less than if you write a dissertation. 💖💖💖)

5. have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that i know of. But i haven't checked either.

6. have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yes -- The Sword and The Heart, an epic rewrite of OUAT S5 i tackled with the amazing @ohmightydevviepuu. If you have never collaborated with another writer, i strongly urge you to try it. i learned things about myself and my writing that i am still benefiting from to this day and i am immensely proud of what we created together. However, that is pretty much due to dev being the best collaborator ever. (Get yourself someone you trust and love and yet challenges you at every turn, is what i'm saying.)

7. what’s your all-time favourite ship?

That's a hard question, because affinity does change -- and why wouldn't it. We change, become different people, and sometimes the things we used to bleed for no longer resonate quite as hard. Like - my OG ship was Buffy /Angel, and i have the absolute soft spot of all time for them, but also i'm (obviously) no longer in high school and so the urgency has subsided. There have been a few other ships i've sideswiped over the years, characters i absolutely loved but never quite got 'ship-invested' in. (Shipvested? 😂) Personally, one factor is definitely that i did not know what a fandom was, or even that there was 'fandom' (as a concept, a community, a Thing) until Captain Swan tore a hole in my heart five years ago. i didn't really know what fanfic was. Or AO3. Apparently i live under a rock. But currently, the tl;dr is a dead tie between Stucky, Captain Swan, and James Holden /Naomi Nagata from The Expanse. With lots of honorable mentions bringing up the rear. 😂

8. what are your writing strengths?

Plot, dialogue, world building, and having characters stay true to their nature even when seen through various AU lenses, i think. Also action and fights and sometimes even battles. And i think i have a knack for letting exposition bleed through action and dialogue, instead of writing it outright. (That last one is a hard-won skill and kills me dead at least once a chapter, you feel me.) i also put a ridiculous amount of research into everything. Seriously, it's a sickness. i once spent more than two hours looking up radio dramas from the 30s that had a supernatural bent and might appeal to teenagers. For half a throwayway line. Possibly i should not list this as a strength. 😂

9. what are your writing weaknesses?

Smut. SMUT ALL THE WAY. i cannot write it, i don't know how. People who read my fic will always get shortchanged in the E department and for that i am sorry. But i really am completely useless on the smut front. And fluff. i can do soft scenes, but i cannot write pure fluff. i don't know how to do that either. i'll write a fucking coffee shop oneshot, or a thieves AU that doesn't even crack 5K, or even a BARTENDER fic, and yet complex back story and plot and action will still burst out from between the lines. All you people out there who can just tear off a sex scene or a fluff piece, i salute you. Also all you people who have multiple WIPs. i don't know how you do it. i can only ever write one fic at a time. You are all wizards, aren't you.

10. first fandom you wrote for?

OUAT /Captain Swan, back in 2019.

Whumpmas in July 2024 day 1: Introduction

Here’s (almost) what I look like. Cred to Fotor for the filter.

Hey, all!

I’m Laur. He/him. I’ve always loved sickfics, both reading them and creating my own. I started off writing for OCs and several different fandoms, but eventually I’ve settled into working within the MCU. I have have ~ 10 different ‘verses ranging canon to AU, and many are focused on different individual characters.

Believe it or not, this is my 8th WIJ (or maybe I pre-date the event? I can’t remember.) Anyway, I’ve been posting fics here since 2017.

At the time I created this account, I training as a professional athlete and dabbling in bodybuilding (hence the name of this blog—the numbers are a random add-on to make the account unique.) I would cross train and swim for an hour every afternoon, then set up the laptop and pour my heart and soul into stories to post on Tumblr. I finally found my writing niche, and I’ve made some best friends for life in the whump/sickfic/emeto community.

My big claim to fame is my completion of the 2018 NaNoWriMo (My total word count was just over 90,000.) I filled the prompt for all 30 days of Novemetober, and I completed the draft of a novel with only 28 days of work. The book has since been published and is available on Amazon. (DM me if you want more info or a link to purchase.)

I used to be able to turn out fics and prompt fills every day, but in 2019 I had some huge health challenges that have slowed me down considerably. The deets aren’t so important, but here are some highlights: the onset of a mental illness, major organ failure, 10+ surgeries with general anesthesia, and three brain injoruous incidents. Now I mostly get around in a power wheelchair. Big change from a few years back.

These days, I have a lot of trouble concentrating, and I have a busy schedule, so my fic and art posts are now few and far between. I still love challenge events like WIJ. I know I won’t be able to answer the question/prompt for every day, but I do have ideas that I’m excited to share.

DC Highschool AU Core Four edition.

This post includes: Core Four (Bart, Tim, Kon, Cassie) they are all in middle school and are 11-12. That's it they are just having fun I made this cause I was bored.

Cassie and Tim are sat under the tree outside their school the group always meet up at. Its around 11pm. Tim is laying out a blanket and food whilst Cassie is trying to set up Netflix on a laptop.

Tim: Okay, Bart said he was bringing the pillows right? There's alot of blankets but the ground is still pretty solid.

Cassie: Yep! Though I'm not sure this screen is big enough for the 4 of us.

Tim crawls over to her: Yeah you're right...

He thinks for a minute.

Tim stands: Uh, you wait here until i get my computer. Its bigger... and I left my bag down at the field anyway so I need to go grab it.

The boy scurrys away and Cassie falls back on the blankets, sighing. She turns her head to the other side and sees two familiar faces.

Kon, carrying 4 pillows and a box full of cola cans with Bart hanging onto his leg: Cassie... help.

Cassie, blinking for a few seconds and then rolling over in laughter: WHAT-hkheue... ACHEM...what happened??

Kon drops the pillow and places the box down next to the tree, shaking Bart off his leg. Then he proceeds to flop down onto the pillows, Bart falling ontop of him immediately after.

Kon: HRG- ugghhh.... I don't know, either. Me and Clark picked him up and drove him here but as soon as I got out the car he attached onto my leg like a toddler.

Bart: Hehe ;)))

Cassie: Sounds like you've become Barts object of interest

Bart: Hehehehehe

Kon: Don't know what that means, don't WANT to know what that means...

He looks around

Kon: Where's Tim?

Cassie: OH! The laptop is too small of a screen so he's away getting his computer.

Kon: Will that really make any difference?

Cassie: Umm I don't know Kon I've never compared Tim's computer to my laptop. 😒

Kon: Damn, snarky... :(

Tim runs back to the group, seemingly exhausted. Kon sits upright, pushing Bart off in the process. Tim sets the computer up and low and behold, it's just the right size.

Bart immediately clinging onto Kon again: What are we watching? I forgot

Tim lays down panting: hhh .... hhhh ....

Cassie: ehehe.. Um, well we think we're gonna have an MCU bashing marathon. I know it's alot of movies but it's a weekend and (albeit, illegal) Tim brought a car we can sit in when it gets cold.

Kon: Dude, I hate marvel.

Cassie: That's why it's called a 'Bashing Marathon', idiot, we make fun of it the whole time.

Bart: Marvel has alot of stuff going on in their movies so it's always fun for me to watch :p

Tim: Okay okay let's get this party started!

Tim jumps up from the ground and places the pillows neatly on the blanket then grabs another 2 thicker blankets and, once everybody's comfortably laying, throws it over them. He tosses a can to Bart and then lays down with the rest of them.

Tim: You punks are gonna be asleep by the 5th hour, I bet.

Bart chugging his drink: NOWAYletsgoletsgoletsgo!!

Cassie: Heh nahh Timmy. I'm so ready for this.

Kon: Let's get ready for a little over 2 days of making fun!

6 hours 30 minutes in and Cassie, Kon, and Bart are all huddling into eachother. One of them is snoring, one is just kicking the blanket continously and the other is sleeptalking. Tim lays happily awake with a bowl full of popcorn when he looks down to his sleeping friends.

Tim: Knew it.

....

Tim sighs as he gets up and turns the computer off, looking back to his friends.

Tim: We probably should've chosen a smaller Franchise, huh guys? Well ... It's dark. And... I don't really wanna drive a car this late so. I'm gonna phone Bruce and see if dad can come pick us up.

He pats his friends.

Tim: And I know you all were tired during Iron Man 2. I saw it in your faces... But you pulled through to the 4th movie out of pure pettiness.

He laughs.

Tim: It's goes to show how resilient you all are... That you don't back down from a challenge. Even if you barely beat it in the first place. It's one of the things I like about you all, and I hope it's something I can one day find myself.

Tim falls back chuckling as he brings his phone out of his pocket and messages his brother.

Tim: Geez I cant believe I'm talking to a bunch of sleeping people.

He feels something brush his leg and sees cassies hand barely but noticeably touching him.

Tim chuckles again, holding his face: Yeah, hehe. You're the type of person to take the chance to tease me about that.

He shuts his eyes.

Tim: Love you guys too...

Welcome fans and friends of Darcy Lewis to Darcy Lewis Bingo Headquarters and our 2023 bingo round!

2023 Darcy Lewis Bingo Challenge Signup Form: link

Darcy Lewis Bingo 2023 custom card (5x5 squares) requests open today, January 7th! Signups will remain open until February 14th.

Please carefully read through the bingo guidelines below before signing up. We made some fun changes this year to help you customize your card all year long.

2023 Darcy Lewis Bingo Guidelines

We’re making a few exciting changes this round!

To begin, four different types of bingo cards will be available for you to choose from in 2023:

Custom Bingo Cards: These are traditional 5x5 grid cards available to everyone who signs up early during the initial entry period in January. Prompts are assigned on these cards based on a simple questionnaire to determine the kinds of fanworks you like to create and your preferred types of prompts. Participants can choose to have 24 prompts + 1 free space or 25 prompts with no free space on these cards as part of the customization process.

Premade Bingo Cards: NEW FOR 2023—these 5x5 grid cards are available to anyone who signs up later in the year, after custom cards are delivered, when late signups open in the spring. (Early entrants may also choose a premade card in the spring to work from in addition to their custom card if a particular premade card theme appeals to their muse.) Each of these cards will have 25 prompts with no free spaces. Prompts available on these cards will be fandom typical, such as tropes, AUs, exclusively nsfw prompts, Darcy multishipper/rare pairs, etc. If there is a particular prompt you’d like to see, we’re open to suggestions for future premade, late entry cards.

Mega Bingo Cards: ALSO NEW FOR 2023—These are a new size card available to all bingo players on our Discord. Mega bingo cards will come in a 10x10 grid size. Every mega bingo card will be identical with 100 prompts total and no free spaces. Each square will have a one-word prompt that can be used to inspire fanwork creations like every other Darcy Bingo prompt—however a creator sees fit to use it or finds inspiration in it. Special reward badges are available to anyone who gets a bingo or a blackout on a 2023 mega bingo card.

Limited Edition Event Cards: UPDATED FOR 2023—These are another new size card for the 2023 round. Limited edition event cards will be premade 1x5 cards created for special occasions, such as Valentine’s Day, Marvel special occasions, Pride 2023, Halloween, and Winter Holidays. These premade cards will each have five prompts with no free spaces and will be made available 2-3 months before each holiday or event month. You’ll be able to choose your limited edition card from a group of 5-10 premade cards based on related themes. Special, limited edition reward badges will be issued to anyone who completes all five prompts on a limited edition bingo card in the 2023 calendar year.

Limited Edition event bingo card signups will be available exclusively to Darcy Bingo Discord server members. MCU special occasions may also be celebrated with limited edition cards. Halloween, Hanukkah, and Christmas, for sure, but maybe Anniversary of the Battle of New York or Steve Rogers’ red, white, & blue birthday, too…? Who knows?!

The link to invite your friends to Darcy Lewis Bingo can be found through the ‘invite’ link at the top of the list of channels on our Discord server.

Please feel free to share it amongst your Darcyland and MCU fandom friends who wish to join this bingo.

As always, creators may write or create as few or as many fics or pieces of artwork as you would like for each prompt. This bingo writing challenge and the prompts provided on each card are meant to inspire, never to stifle your creativity.

When to Begin: You are welcome to begin creating as soon as you receive your card(s). Custom bingo cards should be emailed to you within 30 days of signup, so if you signup on January 1st, you can expect to have your card in hand by February 1st.

Remember, all mega bingo cards will be identical with no customization at the start. Every mega bingo card will have the exact same prompts, but prompts can be traded and swapped during Discord bingo parties this round just like any traditional custom bingo card. The 2023 mega bingo card will be made available in our Discord for creators to save for your records and to work from all round long.

Only one custom card per person will be issued at the start of this bingo event round. If you blackout your 5x5 custom card or your 10x10 mega bingo card, you are welcome to choose one of our 5x5 premade cards to continue creating Darcy Lewis content. However, only one badge each will be issued for 2023 participation, and one each for both the 5x5 and 10x10 cards’ bingo and blackout challenges this round.

Additional badges may also be announced and awarded. Check out our Discord server for future announcements on additional 2023 reward badges.

Bingo Deadlines: There continues to be no deadline for completing a Darcy Lewis 5x5 bingo card or 10x10 mega bingo card for 2023. Creators may take as long as you like to finish a 5x5 or 10x10 bingo card for this round, even well into the following year.

Limited Edition 2023 cards must be completed by the deadline issued in Discord for the event and masterlists submitted by the end of calendar year 2023 to qualify for limited edition reward badges.

As long as this bingo exists, old 5x5 and 10x10 Darcy Lewis Bingo HQ cards completed with new creations will be honored.

Swaps: NEW FOR 2023 Because Darcy Lewis Bingo hosts monthly bingo parties on our Discord, where bingo players have a minimum of 4 opportunities every single month to swap, adopt, or earn additional prompt swaps during bingo party game play, there will be no instant swaps available immediately after custom cards are issued to bingo players.

Weekly Challenges: ALSO NEW FOR 2023 In fact, our Discord Weekly Challenge will present each bingo creator at least 4-8 additional opportunities every month for creators to swap prompts. If you create something for our Discord Weekly Challenge in the seven allotted days for that challenge, you may swap that creation and prompt in for any prompt square on any of your 2023 round cards: 5x5, 10x10, or limited edition 1x5 cards. But the creation must be posted by the end of that challenge week to qualify for a swap and the date of that challenge week swap should appear on your masterlist at the end of the 2023 bingo round to indicate you swapped it with a weekly prompt and when. Weekly Challenge fills can be banked all year and saved to use as swaps as needed until the end of calendar year 2023. Players are responsible for keeping track of their own banked Weekly Challenges. They may alternately be used immediately as swaps, if the creator chooses not to save them for later, once the challenge fill has been posted by the weekly deadline.

By our count, this means every creator has the opportunity to swap up to about 144 prompts in the 2023 round.

That’s a lotta swaps and opportunities to customize your bingo cards. 😉

How to Use Prompts: Remember that no prompt is required to be used exactly as it appears on your card. If you can justify how the prompt inspires the creation, that’s good enough for us.

Masterlists: You will need to provide a masterlist for completed bingo and blackout reward badges in the masterposts channel on our Discord or mention us @darcylewisbingohq on tumblr. Masterlists may be posted at any time for rewards in the 2023 round.

Returning Bingo Players: We ask that bingo players returning from the previous round complete at least one line of bingo on the previous round’s custom card before requesting a new custom card be created for them in 2023.

Requesting reward badges for completing earlier bingo rounds: If you have a custom card from an earlier round of Darcy Lewis Bingo that you never got to finish, but you’d like to keep creating for, we will also honor those rounds with new rewards for creators who complete a bingo line. (New rewards will not be issued for bingo lines of 5 prompts all completed entirely for Darcy bingo cards issued before June 21, 2022, however. This is when Grimey made the handoff of Darcy Bingo to new bingo management, Mods Turtles & ChrissiHR.)

Tags & Trigger Warnings: Please include trigger warnings when you publish your creations. Warning appropriately builds trust with your readers in the long term. Tagging accurately is important for this reason, as well. If trigger warnings are spoilers, put a warning in the tags that spoilers are in the end notes and then actually include the spoilers in the end notes. Tagging builds trust and encourages readers to return to read more of your work. Trust us on this and tag like you want readers to return.

How to Get Reblogged: Mention @darcylewisbingohq in the A/N on tumblr and use the tag #dlbingohq (all one word!) in the first five tags on tumblr to be included in our bingo roundups. Include any tags you’d like us to tag your work with, as well.

Posting Creations: Share your fill in one of the bingo fill channels on our Discord. A brief outline of what to include in your post is pinned in each of the fill and weekly challenge channels.

Don’t forget:

Please use the ‘keep reading’ feature on tumblr when possible to abbreviate lengthy fills if you’d like them reblogged by the Darcy Lewis Bingo Headquarters account.

What Counts as a Fill?: Aesthetics, drabbles, one-shots, multichaptered fics, series, drawings, paintings, sculpture, social media AUs, gif edits, video edits, music video edits, moodboards, coloring pages, and playlists are all accepted fills.

What’s that? You craft or crochet?

That counts, too.

ANY CREATION inspired by your prompt counts.

Poetry? Yes.

Sidewalk chalk drawing? Yes.

Soap sculptures? Yes.

Bullet journal theming? Yes.

Watercolor? Yes.

Haiku written in glitter calligraphy? YES.

Peed in the snow creatively? As long as it’s inspired by a prompt on your bingo card, it counts. So yes. (We’re not your mom. Be weird, make stuff!)

One square = one bingo fill. If you write a multi-chaptered fic, each chapter can be considered a fill using a different prompt, or you may use just one prompt to inspire all your chapters.

You may use one prompt square per chapter or fill from up to two different Darcy Bingo cards at a time. Using two Darcy Bingo cards’ prompts on a single fill is permitted, but only if the prompts originate from two different cards. This includes custom cards (early signups), premade cards (late entries), mega cards, and limited edition cards. You also may combine up to two squares as long as they’re from two different Darcy Bingo cards in a single chapter.

When using prompts from two different Darcy Bingo cards, fill requirements still must be met for each prompt, so a 100-word minimum becomes 200 words minimum when stacking your two prompts from different cards into one fill—just like you’d stack your prompts for cross-fills with other bingos.

All characters, ships, reader inserts, OC’s, actors, crossovers, and AUs are permitted as long as Darcy Lewis is a substantive character contributing to the story or creation or part of a main pairing or polycule in your creation.

Your creation may include characters from other MCU movies or even other fandoms. Just remember it must include Darcy as a substantive character to count as a prompt fill.

If you don’t know what a particular prompt means, you can @ a mod at any time on tumblr or Discord, or DM us directly. We’re happy to help.

All works created for this bingo should be new or previously unpublished. You may add new chapters to old works, however. You may not use previously published chapters of existing works or previously posted one-shots or creations to fill the prompts on your new card.

Minimum prompt fill requirements:

• 100 words for written works or word art, with the exception of poetry with a specific word or syllable count format (such as haikus)

• 1 image for artwork or handcrafts of any kind

• 6 images for social media AUs

• 6 elements or images for moodboards

• 10 songs for playlists

What Counts as a Fill (an addendum)

Just like writing a multichaptered fic, there’s more than one way to fill additional prompts on your bingo card without going down the rabbit hole and writing 25 different stories for every single prompt. (That sounds exhausting to us!)

If you’ve already written a fic you love, go ahead and make a playlist for it, too. Ten songs on a playlist counts as a fill! So does a moodboard! Or an aesthetic board. You can do a social media AU with two or three different IG account pages. Each mock IG page could count as a fill if it contains a minimum of 6 images. There are so many ways to use your prompts and world-build for your stories.

Still not sure if yours meets the minimum requirement? @ a mod on our Discord or message one of us on tumblr! We’re @ibelieveinturtles & @chrissihr here on tumblr.

We wish you all luck with each and every one of your prompt fills in 2023!

Regarding Completion Rewards: Turtles and I have recently discovered a mutual love of giving bingo players extra bonuses and rewards along with reward badges, so bingo players participating in future Discord Limited Edition events, Discord Weekly Challenges, and bingos may receive additional rewards and bonuses above and beyond bingo & blackout reward badges—as dictated by our whims and fancies. These bonuses may include more Wild Cards or Free Space Tokens for participation in particular challenge weeks, opportunities to revisit earlier events and finish unpublished works as instant swaps, surprise adoptable prompt weekends—you name it. More monthly bingo writing and moodboard games will also qualify for instant swaps this year.

Keeping this bingo fun and dynamic all year long for all of you is our goal, but it’s fun for us, too, so expect more of that this round, as well. 😉

The Darcy Lewis Bingo Mod Duo,

Turtles & Chrissi

7 26 30 for the ask game!

aa thank youu for playing this ask game with me! I have so much fun with these!

7. longest completed fic you wrote this year

2023 was a strange year because usually I have one big project I work on and then little ones sprinkled in and have at least a 50k fic to my name by the end of the year...sometimes multiple or 100k lol. but the time, effort, and energy that usually goes into those long projects got burned out in 2 months as I churned out 104,185 words for the 30 Day Fence Challenge, so the longest complete fic that was written entirely in 2023 was Mending Offences at only 12,012 words... man, Fence month was fun but it took a lot out of me ngl especially since usually 100k words lasts for months of posting while i build up more backlog. do not know that id be able to routinely pull a challenge like that off XD and its been nice to be back writing some longer form projects

26. number of favorites/bookmarks you made this year

I bookmarked 2 things lol

30. favorite fandom to read fic from this year

oh man somehow i feel like i'll get bullied for this but Hawkeye (the mcu show on disney)

DAY 22: Rise of the Superheroes

New year, new chance at this documentary challenge of sorts. This one makes a chronology of movie adaptations of comic books (particularly superhero themed) and how the genre has taken the mainstream culture by storm. Being a fan of superheroes myself, I was really interested in this and I learnt a lot of things with this one. More thoughts under the cut.

Apparently Tim Burton made a Batman movie??? I did not know about that but I have to check it out, because it looks quite cool.

In one of the old movies mentioned here (don't remember which one exactly) GEORGE CLOONEY was casted as the BATMAN???????? What the flying fuck?????? In fact it's insane how the documentary kept throwing super popular names that were casted in these movies. Although I suppose these actors weren't as famous then as they are now.

The Crow and Blade are based off comic books????? Both were really scary to me as a child, especially the Crow. I might as well give both movies another chance. Now that I'm an adult they shouldn't scare me as much, and I'd like to see how my perception of them changes, knowing that they are adapted from comic books.

This documentary specifically has made me think a lot about the cyclical nature of entertainment (and capitalism by extension). These movies were made in the 80s and 90s, long before the current MCU and DCU frenzy, but it shows that Hollywood was already trying to make money off these adaptations. They kept producing movie after movie until their quality and profits dropped. And they had to stop. It's basically the same thing that is happening now, what, 30 years later? As much as I like superhero movies, we've been getting them nonstop for 10 years now and it's all bound to stop at some point. When they don't get enough money back.

Chapter 2 of my Matrix fic is now up!

Tiffany has been having strange dreams for as long as she can remember. Every morning she wakes, and she can never remember the face or the name of the man in her dreams.

And now she can't stop thinking about Thomas Anderson.

Tiffany's phone never rang that day at Simulatte, and her coffee with Thomas was never interrupted. What will it take for her to realize that her dreams are more than they would seem?

On the hunt for some new RP partners! Especially in the Dragon Age, Our Flag Means Death, and Schitt's Creek fandoms! I'm 30, with about 8 years of RP experience.

For Dragon Age, I'm looking for someone to rp Fenhawke (with a Male Mage Hawke - I prefer writing Hawke but I can do either. My Hawke is blue/purple) or Alistair/Warden (more open to whatever for that one!)

For Our Flag Means Death, looking for someone to rp Ed/Stede (I can write either). I have a few ideas but I'm open to whatever!

For Schitt's Creek, I'd love to rp David with someone's Patrick. I have a few ideas for that as well, but am also dying to hear your ideas too!

A long shot I know, but I'd also love to do some Thor/Jane from the MCU if anyone is interested in that! I have a fair bit of experience RPing both of them.

I mostly rp on Discord, so please send me a DM here if you're interested and we can chat, or go ahead and just dm me right on Discord. ftloshakespeare#6394

18+ Only, please!

I assume you also love Outlander?? Wouldn't it be hilarious if Jamie/Claire took the red pill and somehow ended in the future?? Omg how funny would that be?

Oh man yeah that would be SO GOOD!!

Claire goes through the stones and ends up in the future, takes the red pill, then has to go back in to find Jamie.

Though, he predates the matrix existing. But there's something there 👀👀

So I really wanna watch Heartstopper, but no one I know IRL has seen it yet, and I have a lot of pretty severe triggers around bullying, so High School shows tend to be a challenge for me. Can anyone in the Heartstopper fandom let me know about any content warnings for bullying? I'd really appreciate 💜

30 Day Writing Challenge: 27. Write an ending without a beginning

So this was going to be my angst entry, but I started it towards the end instead of the beginning and then I realized there's so much more I need to write ahead of this that it's my ending without a beginning. Eventually I will add the start and put it in my "Making A Go Of It" series.

---

Why was he asking her to stay? Selfish reasons, he knew, but she loved him. She’d told him and he hadn’t been able to say the words back and it had broken her heart. And then he’d thrown himself headfirst into the fight and nearly died. Would have died without Wong taking immediate care of him. And he asked her to stay.

He was a selfish bastard and he didn’t deserve her.

The door opened and the woman he was thinking about, all the damn time it seemed, walked in. “I have soup in a cup, orange juice and a protein shake,” she said. His jaw had been one of the few bones not broken but it still hurt to talk and eat.

“Stay,” he said.

“I will. When you’re healed, I’ll make arrangements to finalize the divorce with Matt and Foggy’s firm and then I’ll go back to England. We can pretend we were never married.

“Stay,” he said, more insistently this time. “Love...you.”

Her eyes widened. “You love me?”

“Yes.”

“Oh, Stephen. I can’t believe this. I thought it was...I wasn’t sure what to think. And then you got hurt!” She was crying and he would have given anything to wipe her tears away. “I’ll stay. Of course I’ll stay.” She set the tray down, wiped her eyes, and then carefully cradled his cheek in her hand. “I still love you, Stephen. I think I have since I came looking for the divorce. I’ll stay.”

"Good," he said softly, leaning into her touch and shutting his eyes. Maybe the roiling in his heart would stop and the damning conversation with Christine would stop haunting him. He could only hope.

WIP Update 30 Nov 2022

Had a nicely productive writing week  - I touched 7 fics (0 WIPs & 7 new works) for a total of 2525 words! On Ao3, I posted  Chapter 1 of a Modern No Powers Bucky/Tony roommate fic,  a Stony domestic fluff & angst ficlet with bonus platonic Rhodey and a WWII-era Bucky & Peggy ficlet where they discuss their mutual friend. 

On Tumblr I posted a  Dum-E POV drabble.

Am up to 16 active WIPs  (with a couple of maybe TBCs)  with my current   deadlines being   Comfortember and  Avengers Bingo, with  Man with a Plan, Starkbucks and Hero Hardships coming in close behind!  

See below cut for the WIPs  (arranged more or less by bingos/challenges/etc) I am working on  -   feel free to send me prompts or plot bunnies as well as asks regarding any of these projects   (or any other WIPs I’ve got out there) – they really help feed the Muse and keep me motivated!

Comfortember  [Runs thru 30 Nov]

Taking on the @comfortember writing challenge - I assembled a tracking doc but didn’t quite complete my goal of one fill a week, preferably crossing over with a bingo fill.   I’ve posted fills for  Day 3: Warm Food and Day 16: Shelter 

Avengers Bingo [AvB] (Runs thru 24 Dec )

Twelve fills posted (10 to Ao3)  and 2 WIPs - I decided to further challenge myself on this 16-square card by pairing up each square with a unique combo of 2 original MCU Avengers, with the final square being PolyVengers. With the help of the STB Enthusiasts Discord folks - I’ve got all 16 squares  planned out, at least in terms of who to write about, and half of them have some sort of idea or crossover square to go along with them. Feel free to toss other plot  bunnies my way…  

* B3 - Road Trip  -  Wrote up and posted  Sailing Toward a New Horizon  to Tumblr.  It’s a Thor & Bruce post-Ragnarok ficlet  that also filled a Flash Fiction Friday prompt [#FFF177 Expand Through Horizons]   It will get added to Ao3 before the end of the bingo.

* B4 - Age Gap    - Got a start on Caught By the Rain and Blinded by the Lightning  - a Thor/Tony  post CA:CW  PWP crossing over with TSB One Night Stand. Currently sitting at 282 words. 

* C1 - Opposites Attract - Clint/Thor  - there was a fun Tumblr  headcanon going around about a Bumbling Foreigner whose ignorance of  local customs  results in him flirting with/proposing to the prince -  this seems like a perfect matchup!  

* D1 - Friends w/ Benefits  - got a bit of a start on  untitled HawkShield PWP -  crossing over with MWAPB Hawkeye/Clint Barton.  It’s sitting at 72 words. 

* D2 - Romeo & Juliet AU  -  basic idea:  Steve (jock) & Tony  (geek) trying out for title roles in R&J - despite their respective  FWB groups thinking it’s a terrible idea.  Title:  Two Polycules, Alike in Dignity

* D3 - Bed Sharing  -  posted Finding Refuge here to Tumblr -  it’s a  Natasha/Bruce fic that is Age of Ultron based (divergent) and also fills the Comfortember Day 16 prompt: Shelter.  It will get added to Ao3 before the end of the bingo.

Man With a Plan (Steve Rogers) Bingo [MWAPB] (Runs thru 31 Dec)

Fourteen fills, 3 WIPs and several Vague Ideas/potential cross fills with other bingos.  Prompts cheerfully accepted!  

* B3 - Farmer’s Market  -  crossover with TSB Doing Groceries. Moodboard + ficlet?

* B5 - “I don’t really want to wake up yet” - finally got  Promises to Keep  posted to Ao3; it’s an established Stony ficlet with bonus Rhodey appearance that also filled a FFF   No Rest for the Wicked prompt and three October writing challenge prompts.  It came in at 453 words.

* I1 - Steve is here for TFAtWS  - this might go well with my BBB  “Oh, hell no"  square - Steve trolling  Bucky & Sam by sending the old man in with his shield?  (moodboard & ficlet?)  

* N1 - School AU/Teacher AU  - if I decide to continue on with Technicalities   - I could fill this square  :: ponders::

* N3 - Online shopping - this might be fun as a crossover with BBB Thighs:  Sam buys a revealing swimsuit for Bucky as a gag that gets Steve in a tizzy.

* N4 - Soulmates -  got inspired by a dream to start a Stucky fantasy AU (magician!Steve/ensorcelled!Bucky) that @bill-longbow  is collaborating on with me.  This will also fill my Stucky Bingo AU: Supernatural square.  We’re currently sitting at 1640 words  (984-ish of which are mine). Current Last Line:  "My men will accompany you back to Brookline in the morning.”

* G4 - Canon Divergence post CA:TWS - possible  crossover with BBB  Kill List – Bucky wreaking havoc on Hydra bases and  Steve & Sam catch up with him

* G5 - Friends to Lovers -  might use this for Chapter 3 of Mutual Pinning

*  O2 - Sex Pollen  -  Got started on   A Spoonful of Trouble -   Steve and Bucky get curious when they lean Teenage Groot’s pollen is an aphrodisiac. Currently sitting at 181 words and will cross over with my BBB KINK:Aftercare square.

* O3 - Hawkeye/Clint Barton  -  see AvB - Friends w/ Benefits  above.

StarkBucks Bingo - Round 3  (SBB_R3) - Ends 31 Dec

Eleven fills (nine posted to Ao3), 3 WIPs and several Vague Ideas - soliciting plot bunnies or other kick-starters.

* B1 - “I wouldn’t mind wasting my time on you.“  - Possible crossover with  BBB - KINK: Seduction Mission?  

* I2 - Mistaken Identity - crossover with TSB K5 - Protectiveness -  “The Mechanic, The Soldier & The Artist” - mob/assassin AU with a Mr. & Mrs. Smith twist?  

* I4 - Canon: Avengers Academy  - will probably do Stuffed Marvels sketches of Tony and Winter, as I know very little about the game/canon.  

* I5 - Matchmaker Bots -  This was originally going to be filled with Chapter 3 of  What Dum-E  Knows  - where the ‘bot is observing how Ste-V and Buc-E interact with Ton-E,  but I ended up writing a Tony POV of what Dum-E actually decides to do about those observations.  On Reflection is coming in at 616 words and will post on the 7th.  

* N2 - Blanket - the first draft of  Chapter 2 of   Borrowing Trouble (see O3 below) is done; it’s a crossover with my BBB Funeral  and TSB WinterIron squares and is currently coming in at 1187 words.  Chapter 1 was posted on Friday with Chapter 2 following this Friday.

* N5 - “Wanna make a bet?”  Used this in combination with the Day 18  Fictober (“I don’t think this is your problem.”)  and Flufftober  (Soulmate AU) prompts for  Marked-Up Soulmarks  - a soulmate AU where Tony discovers he and Steve have something (and someone) in common. I may expand on this before posting it to Ao3 and/or claiming it as an official fill. Currently coming in at 418 words.

* O1 - Royalty - crossover with TSB - IronWidow  &  BBB   AU: Arranged Marriage -  pick Lady Natasha’s Consort and Lord Steve’s Companion  back up?

* O3 - “Shh… I’m sleeping.”   Posted Borrowing Trouble to Ao3 last Friday - it crosses over with my TSB AU: College square as well as #FFF175 Gloomy Daze.  It came in at 875 words and is scheduled to be posted Friday, with a second/final chapter on its way the following week (see N2 above) 

*O4 - Time - Filled this with Leading Questions,   a WinterIron ficlet where Bucky comes to Tony’s defense during a difficult interview.  It also filled the Flash Fiction Friday prompt [FFF176 Like Your Father].  It came in at  382 words and will get posted to Ao3 before the end of the bingo.

* O5 - AU: Biker  - Grease 2  fusion  anyone?  😁  I watched the movie a couple of weeks ago and took notes -  It’s not gonna be a faithful adaptation, but hopefully fun - had another mini-brainstorm on this  & hope to get it started sometime this/next week.  Would love to collab with someone who has an AU:  High School, Identity Porn and/or Mutual Pining square on their TSB, BBB or SBB cards!

Hero Hardships Bingo  [HHB]  (Runs thru 31 Dec)

One fill so far  with a few Vague Ideas …  need to see what might play well with belated Whumptober prompts!

* I3 - Unimaginable Grief  – I‘m thinking an post-Endgame Rhodey POV would work nicely here…

* O3 - Dating a civilian -  this would fit perfectly with another chapter of Takin’ What They’re Givin’ (‘Cause I’m Workin’ for a Livin’) , for which I currently have a basic plot point or two rolling around in my head.

Bucky Barnes Bingo - Round 4 [BBB_R4] (Runs thru 7 Jan 2023)

Twelve fills,  six WIPs  & ideas for everything except one square  - Working on a Column B bingo to start.

* B2 - Funeral - see SBB N2 - Blanket  above

* B3 - Sam Wilson|Falcon - this would be a good candidate for a continuation of After One Or Two False Starts

* U2 - AU: Roommate  - Still wanting to use the Meet Ugly prompt: 02. I bought a house three months ago but I’m finally moving in and discover you’ve been squatting because you’re homeless    – probably WinterHawk with  recovering!Bucky being the squatter in Clint’s apartment building.  

* U4 - AU: Arranged Marriage - will probably pick Lady Natasha’s Consort and Lord Steve’s Companion  back up for this one.  

* U5 - Kill List -  see MWAP  - G4 - Canon Divergence.  Post CA:TWS above

* C2 - “Oh, hell no” - possible crossover with MWAP I1 - Steve is here for TFaWS

* C4 - KINK: Aftercare -  see MWAP O2 - Sex Pollen

*C5 - “This might as well happen” -  Used this for the Sept BBB Round Robin  (crackfic - Emperor’s New Groove inspired)  wrote 276 words toward it  - not sure if/when it will post,  but will add a link when it does.   😁

* K3 - KINK: Edging  - crossing over with TSB KINK: Orgasm Denial/Edging & I finally got a start on the WinterIron PWP for this (Bucky POV with toy play and Tony as a power bottom)  Hanging by a Moment is sitting at 96 words at the moment.

* Y2 - Never the fall that kills you -  this might be the title for a reverse hanahaki WinterIron prompt from @lacrimula-falsa ….  

* Y4 - KINK: Seduction Mission - crossover with SBB - B1 - “I wouldn’t mind wasting my time on you.”  

* ADOPTED1 - Peggy Carter -  Finished Reaching an Understanding  - a one shot with Bucky & Peggy talking the morning after the CA:TFA bar scene. It’s coming in at 658 words and will post to Ao3 next week.  

Steve Rogers Bingo - Round 2  (SRB_R2) - Ends 31 Jan

Fourteen fills posted  & 4 WIPs at the moment   – happily accepting plot bunnies here as well.  

* A1 - Never Have I Ever -  what was supposed to be an intro to my Clint/Steve FWB Avengers Bingo square turned into the first chapter of a double-shot that will also fill  B2 below.   The first chapter of  Never Have I Ever (But I Want To With You) came in at 696 words and will post sometime in December.

* A4 - Touch Attention/Denial  - I have an idea for this that will also fill (heh) my Stucky Bingo  KINK - Double Penetration square.

* B2 - Mile High Club -  This will be the second chapter of Never Have I Ever (But I Want To With You), picking up with Tony’s POV after the events of Chapter One.

* D2 - Doctor Strange -  possibly combine with TSB  Occupational Hazard for an IronStrange or IronShieldStrange fic? 

* E2 - Comics Nomad Steve  - SWC sketch of Nomad!Steve

Tony Stark Bingo - Round 6  (TSB_R6)  [Ends 28 Feb]

Thirteen fills and four WIPs at the moment -    with  Vague Ideas for almost every other square.  

* T1 - One Night Stand - see AvB - B4 - Age Gap

* T2 - Doing Groceries - see MWAP B3 - Farmer’s Market

* T3 - Pepper Potts/Rescue -  some sort of remix of/inspired by sabrecmc’s  Indecent Proposal  from Pepper’s POV.  At this point, I think I need to re-read the fic & take notes …  

* T4 - KINK: Concubine - possible crossover with   SRB  E4 - Mental Bondage?  Potential Title - My Voice The Chain that Binds You

* T5 - WinterIron - see  SBB Blanket

* A4 - AU: College - see SBB “Shh… I’m sleeping.”

*A5 - Scott Lang  - @27dragons shared an interesting plot bunny during the Sept TSB Discord party that I may end up using; that or a follow up to A Piece of the Action

* R1 - Tony’s Poor Life Choices - @somesortofitalianroast had the excellent idea to turn this on its head - now that he’s with [partner of your choice] - he’s making fewer poor life choices?

* R2 - IronWidow -  next chapter of Lady Natasha’s Consort and Lord Steve’s Companion ?

* R4 - Occupational Hazard -  banged out I Make Toys (But I’ve Got Aspirations) in one sitting!  It’s a ficlet where Tony & Steve are Santa's elves  who hatch a plan to help kids who need something more than toys for Christmas.  It is coming in at 333 words and will post before Christmas. 

* K2 - Secret Admirer -  carried this over from last round so I could try my hand a remix of Seeds of Love  (WinterIron hanahaki fic by the super-talented @hddnone).  Potential title:  Wraps Around My Heart, Refusing to Unwind

* K3 - KINK: Orgasm Denial/Edging -  see BBB KINK: Edging  

* K5 - Protectiveness -  see SBB Mistaken Identity

Stucky Bingo Round Four [SB_R4] (Ends 31 May 2023

Seven fills and three WIPs with a couple of other vague ideas.

* B4 - Artist/Muse - posted  A Work of Heart to Tumblr  on 10/29.  It came in at  at 650 words and filled Day 29 of   Fictober (”You love this, don’t you?”) , Flufftober (Leaves) and Whumptober (”Better me than you.”)  Coming to Ao3 before the end of the year.

* B5 - KINK: Double Penetration - see SRB   Touch Attention/Denial  above.

* O4 - AU: Supernatural - see MWAPB Soulmates  above.

I also adopted the Writing Format: Remix one of your fics  square  – am thinking of taking one of my Stony or WinterIron  No Powers fics and adapting it to a Stucky pairing – if you have any requests - hit me up!  

WinterIron - No Powers AU  –  Stony No Powers AU

————

On other creative fronts:  I have a Winter Soldier Stuffed With Character figure in progress -  he’s the third of  seven (!!!)  figures to create for my three Marvel Trumps Hate  auction winners – thanks so much for your generous support!!  Finally, I am prepping for a superhero con in March - so am pretty well booked up through at least the end of the year.

That said, if you’re looking for one of a kind gifts for birthdays or other celebrations in 2023, check  out Stuffed With Character   over on Facebook for a full list of my designs (now over 80!).   They’re  mostly Marvel and monsters, but I have some Star Wars, Star Trek, DC   and Disney figures as well. Plus I love to take custom design  requests  for any fandom!

Flight of the Reaper (Will's story) Masterlist --- SoaS Series Masterlist

Summary:

Excerpt for "Flight of the Reaper" (Will's story) Will doesn't like to talk about his disabilities

Notes:

Characters: Will- Bucky and Natasha's son, Mare's twin Harley Keener Peter Parker

Ao3 link

Word count: 160

Will PoV

Will rubbed his head, trying to focus. But the words and numbers on the page only grew more muddled. Pushing the papers away maybe more aggressively than necessary, he put his head in his hands. Why couldn’t he just have a normal brain? He couldn’t even do what he loved without difficulty.

“You alright over there, darlin’?”

His jaw tightened. Harley had already won over Peter, so why did he insist on flirting with Will, too?

“I’m fine.” he said through gritted teeth, standing up. “Just going to clear my head for a bit.”

He made the mistake of looking over at Peter’s station as he started to leave. The other boy’s brow was furrowed, mouth down-turned into a frown.

“Are you sure? Because-”

“There’s nothing else to tell you.” he snapped. “I’m going for a walk. Don’t wait up for me.”

Then he stormed out, not letting any angry tears fall until he was far, far from the lab.

SoaS Taglist:

No one so far
