Family Reunion

Xiri: I made tea.

Erio: I don’t want tea.

Xiri: I did not make tea for you. This is my tea.

Erio: Then why are you telling me?

Xiri: It is a conversation starter.

Erio: That’s a lousy conversation starter.

Xiri: Oh, is it? We are conversing. Checkmate.

Alright, another idea for you! For the danmei club prompt ask thing:

NingXian, Burial Mounds settlement days, Wen Ning lovingly bullying WWX to take care of himself. Sad eyes/ puppy eyes are fair use, regardless of what wwx says.

Gimme bittersweet. Maybe alpha!Ning? Do sentient corpses still have scents?

Yes they do, cuz I say so. But I am limiting Wen Ning's alpha-ness to just scents, being able to mate/bond and using the bond to feel what his mate feels. No sex for poor dead guy oop. Zilia, this isnt just for Jaq, this is for you too because you're the first person in my orbit who started chanting "NingXian. NingXian. NingXian".

Instead of 500 words, have 4.1k (what a horrible number) words instead!

“Are you alright?” He couldn’t hide the concern in his tone. Wei Wuxian had just come out after his self-imposed heat confinement and he looked terrible. He was gorgeous as always of course, but the Burial Mounds were hard on the Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation too. Although the way he looked now was way worse than he usually did which seemed impossible yet here they were.

“I am fine, all good, see?” He assured or tried to. The hoarseness of his voice gave away how long he had been screaming for an alpha who would never come. Wen Ning was seeing alright.

“Sit here, I’ll bring some broth. Heats are already hard on omegas and they get worse if you intentionally starve yourself.” He pushed him to sit on a fallen log and Wei Wuxian startled, a guilty expression contorting his face. Wen Ning had a good idea of the self-sacrificial bullshit going on in the omega’s head that made him so reckless with himself.

When he handed the bowl to him, Wei Wuxian immediately began employing his puppy eyes. Now, Wen Ning wasn’t a strong man, wasn’t one even in life and as an alpha, he really couldn’t remain unaffected by an omega he cared for but this was ridiculous. “Eat,” he said and the omega pouted harder.

“This is too much A-Ning! We could give half of it to A-Yuan, or Popo or-“

“Eat,” he simply said but then decided he much rather keep vigil unless Wei Wuxian tried sneaking away to give his food over. “Want me to feed you?” He asked and Wei Wuxian grinned and nodded.

The smile left his face when Wen Ning took the bowl from him and his cheeks darkened to a rare rosy hue that would have Wen Ning swooning if he wasn’t busy trying to coddle him. He’ll revisit that sight and fixate on it later. Right now, he was going to enjoy Wei Wuxian sputtering about not being an invalid. The omega wasn’t the only one who could turn the tables and fluster others. 

“This is ridiculous, I could’ve shared this much food with someone. It's being wasted on-”

“Xian-ge!” He turned and widened his eyes, pouting slightly and Wei Wuxian gulped and clamped his mouth shut. Wen Ning wasn’t above playing dirty and he knew exactly how susceptible Wei Wuxian was to his own puppy eyes. Hell even Jiejie wasn’t above falling for them so who was Wei Wuxian in the grand scheme of disguised manipulation?

“You don’t fight fair,” he whined and focused his attention back on the bowl, as if glaring would make it vanish into thin air A beat of silence passed as Wei Wuxian scowled and then downed the entire bowl in one go, sputtering about radishes and the lack of spice.

There's more ofc, but please go read it on AO3 :D

Please give a round of applause and listen to the song that inspired the vibes and how I went about this fic! aka REFRAIN by Miyano Mamoru!

5 Times Steve Celebrated Surviving (+1 Time He Celebrated Living) by Sagacity

What it says on the tin! 5 times Steve sexed up an Avenger to celebrate surviving, and one time it was Bucky.

The Heat of Victory by sphagnum

“Hey,” Stark said sharply, “no secret side conversations in my Tower. What’s going on?”

Stark was a civilian, Steve reminded himself, and bit back the quick retort that wanted to spill out. He opened the collar of his uniform instead, undoing buckles until the tough leather gaped open over the scent glands at his neck.

Silentio Noctis by KandiSheek

Steve is hit by a lust curse that plagues him with dreams of his friends fucking him to the point of exhaustion every night. He has no doubt that it will eventually kill him, if it doesn't drive him insane first. Luckily Tony is there to save the day.

Bang My Boyfriend by OhCaptainMyCaptain

Bucky arranges to fulfill one of Steve's darkest fantasies: getting gangbanged by all of the Avengers.

he's my lovin' one-man show by meidui

Steve isn’t intentionally sleeping through the team one by one and leaving Tony off the list.

Morale by Not_You

This is unrepentant smut, where Steve just goes to the others and asks them to help a soldier out.

More Morale by Not_You

In which Steve works his way through the team for one-on-one time with everybody.

Life's Little Consolations by Not_You

Walking into the main common room to see Thor fucking Steve silly is just one of the many consolations of Tony's difficult and rewarding life.

Sometimes You Get What You Want by LibidineTertius

An unknown period of time after the movie, a few of the team get together for a little dirty fun. Pile on Steve!

All I need to know is there is no end to love by SomeSortofItalianRoast

After years of having team-building orgies with the Avengers, Steve decides it’s time to ask them to do something he’s always wanted. He wants them to gang bang him, as a team, on the carpeted floor of the Stark Penthouse.

Photo Worthy by midnighter24

Tony has a new suit for Steve that leaves nothing to the imagination, but his teammates are anxious to take advantage, and photograph the whole thing.

Or where Tony issues a challenge for who can get the most depraved picture of Captain America.

One For The Team by redbluesilver

Steve works to relieve the stress of his team and repay them for what they did for him.

Story Time with Bucky and Steve by zilia

Bucky finds out that Steve's relationships with most of the Avengers were not exactly platonic prior to his return.

Steve tells him the gory details.

Take It Like You Mean It by Amuly

Steve Rogers is new to the Avengers and fitting in just fine. At least, he seems to be, though Tony notices that after battles he has a certain itch that needs scratching... in his ass. Soon enough, Tony finds himself watching as Steve fucks his way steadily through various teammates: Namor, Thor, Sam, Clint (or, more accurately, is fucked by them).

To Tony's great frustration, Steve never seems to ask Iron Man, or Tony Stark (because for all Steve Rogers knows, they're two different people) for a helping hand. It's enough to make a guy feel unwanted!

In Which Steve Rogers has Sex with all of the Avengers by Cards_Slash

It's Natasha on the days that he's livid, just furious, about to burn up from the inside out.

The Education of Steve Rogers by sabinelagrande

How to corrupt a superhero without really trying.

Favourite Stucky Fics of 2022

This feels a little bit like a farewell, but don’t worry... I’m never too far away! Here’s my favourite Stucky fics of 2022 :) 

Complete

💙 FUBAR by Ginny_Potter/ @hipsterdiva​ (Post-Endgame Fix-It | 64K | Explicit): Steve jumps in the past to return the Infinity Stones and doesn’t come back. When Bucky travels to 2012 to look for him, the Ancient One tells him just one thing: “Captain Rogers decided to move on”. Back in the present, Sam Wilson is more driven than ever to find his friend, believing him to be lost in the Quantum Realm but Bucky knows, just knows, that Steve made a choice and the choice was to stay in the past. Struggling to cope with a world he doesn’t recognise, Bucky falls in an addictive spiral of jumping up and down the timeline under the vigilant eye of the Ancient One, just to see Steve one more time, just to get his next fix. And in doing so, without even realising it, he heals and in the end finds out if he was right. Or, Time Travel is addictive, Steve is lost, and Bucky slowly realises that healing together is better than healing alone.

💙 he said, there’s a paradise beneath me (she said, am I supposed to bleed) by voxofthevoid/ @voxofthevoid​ (Hunkyclunks aka Winter Soldier Bucky/Modern Beefy Steve, BDSM | 23K | Explicit): “If you kiss me like that, Rogers, you’re gonna have a hard time convincing me you want to fuck me.” “Can’t have that,” Steve says and— And the fucker bends Bucky back like this is a goddamn romcom and kisses the everloving shit out of him. (Part 1 of some sweet violent urge)

💙 The Devil and Captain Rogers by kocuria-visuals (kocuria)/ @kocuria, zilia/ @ms-zilia​ (Post-Avengers, Canon Divergent | 55K | Mature): Steve Rogers woke up in the twenty-first century and joined the Avengers to defeat Loki and save New York. But afterwards, he finds himself struggling to adjust to his new circumstances, desperately lonely and missing Bucky more than ever. So when the Guardian of the Soulworld visits him and offers to give him one person back from the dead, he jumps at the chance to get Bucky back. The only problem is, when he arrives in the Soulworld, Bucky doesn’t seem to be there.

💙 Maybe we’ll get it all (If we choose one night) by sourwolphs/ @sourwolphs (A/B/O AU, Sex Worker Bucky | 69K | Explicit): As it turns out, it’s pretty hard to find a job as an ex-firefighter omega with PTSD, no left arm, and no high school diploma. After the accident forced Bucky to leave his job at the fire department, he stumbles upon ComfortCycle— a service that helps alphas and omegas get through their heat and rut cycles— and becomes a trained Cycle Partner. And for the first time in his 34 years of life, lonely, rich alpha Steve Rogers is considering paying for sex.

💙 Blooming Under the Dappled Light by thiccbuckybarnes/ @thiccbuckybarnesfic (Historical AU, Secret Identity | 52K | Explicit): Despite being the son of a gentleman, James “Bucky” Barnes could scarcely allow himself the hope of one day being tied to another in happy matrimony. In a society where the first-born children are revered and inherit all of a family’s wealth, last-born Bucky feels trapped in a life he did not ask for. When he makes the drastic decision to run away and become a tutor for a wealthy family, he is hoping to save enough pennies to someday have a dowry and be worthy for marriage despite his deposition. What he is not anticipating, however, is falling into the rough and skilled hands of his employer, the rakish widow Lord Steven Rogers.

💙 Okay, so he can play… (pretty’s got nothing to do with it) by darter_blue/ @darter-blue (University Hockey AU | 50K | Explicit): This is supposed to be Steve’s year. He’s meant to be taking his team to finals. He’s meant to be the number one draft pick. He’s meant to have it all. Until in walks the new kid, with his beautiful face and his tiny shoulders and his long hair and his graceful skating. Who doesn’t look anything like a proper hockey player. Who’s going to ruin everything. Bucky Barnes is about to bring Steve Roger’s world crashing down. And Steve is about to realise that’s a good thing.Maybe the best thing that ever happened to him.

💙 Rhapsody on a Theme by Astaraiche, Bittersweet_in_Boston (Orchestra AU | 41K | Explicit): in which Steve Rogers, principal cellist at the Boston Symphony Orchestra, meets Bucky Barnes, piano soloist and BSO artist in residence, and the inevitable occurs. 

💙  Read, White & Blue by JJK/ @trenchcoatsandtimetravel (Shrunkyclunks, Librarian Bucky | 99K | Teen): If Steve was certain one thing would have stayed the same during his sixty-something years in the ice, it was that libraries were still the place to go if you needed information. And Steve needed information. Lots and lots of it. aka Librarian Bucky helps freshly desfrosted Steve learn how to use computers and catch up on everything he missed whilst he was in the ice.

WIP

💙 hey now, you’re an all star (get your game on, go play) by buckyismybicycle/ @buckyismybicycle (NHL Hockey AU | 18/? | 55K | Explicit): Boston Bruins trade notorious party animal/human disaster Bucky Barnes to the Dallas Stars, and captain Steve Rogers is not impressed when Fury puts him on babysitting duties. But, as he gets to know Bucky - really gets to know Bucky - he wonders if maybe the media has got it all wrong - very, very wrong.

💙 Love isn’t always a ‘coup de foudre’ by Becassine/ @becassine, kocuria-visuals (kocuria)/ @kocuria (Bridgerton AU, A/B/O | 6/13 | 26K | Explicit): When Steve Rogers is presented at Court as a desirable Male Omega to the world, he has no idea what to expect. But after meeting the sought-after Duke of Buchanan through a chance encounter, his life is forever turned upside down.

💙 A Story We Must Tell by AHM1121/ @love-ha-fge​, MissyRivers (Modern AU, Fisherman Steve, Writer Bucky | 8/15 | 61K | Explicit): Or, the story of how ex-military turned Author - James Barnes collides with ex- Army Commander turned Lumberjack/Fisherman Steve Rogers and all the ensuing fluff, drama, romance that comes their way.

💙 This is (not) a Ghost Story [COMIC] by PottersPink/ @potterspink​ (Post-WS | 10/31 | General): Steve moves into a haunted house. Well — everyone else is convinced it’s haunted, anyways.

❤️ & ❓

Thank you very much for the ask, Lee <333 Have an awesome one with your cursed family, hehe ^^

❤️: What does your self-insert do when they feel happy?

Genesis: stims, giggles, gets super affectionate with people and overly energetic!

Tsizilia: Smiles/Grins either slightly or like a mad man. That's it. Thinks about it for the next few hours, you might have a hard time trying to snap her out of the dozed off state. Gets a bit dreamy, and softer than usual.

❓: What’s a random fact about your self-insert that you want to share?

Here's two short ones because I just wanna rant about 'Zilia a little bc shes awesome and I love her😭🖤

One: Tsizilia is not her real name. (Unspoken lore left for later...🤫)

Two: Tsizilia's a "butch" girl. She likes to appear as masculine/ dress/act as such. She even got top surgery, believe it or not! Just one of the women who doesn't like boobs, yuh I get her. Her surgery scars are shaped like an upside-down broken heart.

Link to the ask game!

The grave of Zilia, wife of Alvin W Lavis. She was just 26 when she died on March 25th, 1838. At some point a big piece of this stone broke off but was put back into place again. Once there was a tintype photo in the small stone frame at the top. It's gone now. Zillia is a distinctly 19th century name. I've come across so many names beginning with the letter Z, including the 18th century carver Zerubbabel Collins in my travels.

2019 Friday Recs - Week 3

Happy Friday! Some reading recommendations for your enjoyment. No particular order and more to come.

I'm trying to make sure there is a mix of happy and sad fics for this 'year'. It's so easy to go overboard with the tragic now that Endgame has arrived.

there’s no way that it’s not going there (with the way that we’re looking at each other) by tryalittlejoytomorrow/@tryalittlejoytomorrow

Clint and Natasha go undercover as a married couple. There's a red dress, and guns fastened to garters, and Clint is losing his mind.

and i break down as you walk away by touchtheexoplanets

Some things are inevitable. Clint just never thought this would be one of them.

Holiday Traditions by zilia

Clint changes his mind about Christmas.

Renewed Redemption by shenala

She didn't want to listen to him absolve her of her sins and tell her that everything would be okay. Not this time.

Raw Bone Whisper by FadedSepia/@fadedsepiascribbles

It’s purely pragmatic; she finally has a choice, and Clint Barton is that choice. Definitely not the best choice, probably not even a good choice. He’s her choice… but Clint Barton is not ideal; not at all. They work together… Not that she cares. Still, the thought slips through her brain as she really keys in; her partner is railing her into the wall of a bathroom in the middle of Rotterdam.
