WIP Warriors Round 5

After a little bit of delay it's time for the next Round.

Let's try something new again: each vote will be worth 200 words.

So, pick whatever you want to read more of first, or just pick something random to make a writer write on their WIPs.

Writing Patterns (Tag Game)

Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

Thanks to @42donotpanic for tagging me!!

“You mean you made all of us listen to Stick to the Status Quo on repeat for a month straight just for you to get cast as Chad’s understudy?” (Stick to the Status Quo)

Winter had never been Kurt’s favorite season. (Attachment Therapy)

“...can you just leave me alone?” (You See What I Want (but what do I need?))

Shouting. Footsteps. Screaming. Blood. (In The Walls)

The fog was beginning to get annoying. (I Don't Hear What You Don't See (AU-gust 2023))

Clint was really starting to wish that he had drained the coffee pot when he had the chance. (Evaluation)

The weird blast felt… weird. (In Another's Shoes)

There is nothing quite like alcohol to facilitate incoherent, inexplicable laughter. (Like an Echo)

In 16 years, Scott Summers had seen more broken bones than he would care to admit. (Things Happen)

"Yes!” Quill crowed, throwing his arms up in the air as he did. (Too Broken to Fix)

I think the biggest thing that I do with my first lines is try to establish an idea or theme that will come back later in the story. About half of these are repeated verbatim later in the story, which is especially impactful (I hope) in the multichapter ones! Even if they don't return word-for-word, I usually use whatever concept is established in the first sentence (things like the understudy role, the idea of being left alone, the coffee, laughter, etc) throughout the story to push the plot. The only one on here that doesn't really follow that is "Too Broken To Fix", which is actually really fitting because that was actually a re-post of a fic I wrote back in 2019; kind of cool to see that my writing style really has changed, even just based off of the first lines!

Recs: Clint/Bucky fics with 200-500 kudos

after going through the entire Clint/Bucky pairing tag on AO3, I did a recs post for my favorite fics with under 200 kudos (a range covering more than half of the works in the tag) and now I've decided to do one for fics with 200-500 kudos (another ~quarter of the tag). there are 36 pages of fic with more than 500 kudos, so I figure most people won't get to these on a casual binge.

What Spring Does With the Cherry Trees, by @bittercape (32k) Bucky moves into Clint's apartment building and starts working on figuring out what he likes. this one has that lovely chill vibe where they both kinda know where their relationship is heading and neither of them is in too much of a rush to get there, which is my absolute favorite kind of slow burn, and there's a lot of focus on reflection and healing and self-care and just hangin out being comfortable with each other <3

You Can Never Go Home Again, by @flawedamythyst (49k) Clint and Bucky get sent back in time to 1939, and Bucky slowly unlearns his internalized homophobia and realizes that the "just two straight buddies helping each other out" handjobs they've been exchanging are not actually straight. I did a literal double-take when I saw how few kudos this had, it is one of my favorite fics in this pairing and it has the single hottest first kiss I have ever read in my entire life

Delicate Tension, by @feedmecookiesnow (53k) beautiful, quiet, sweet, sexy road trip fic, with lots of pleasant imagery in Bucky's photography and a satisfying slow-ish burn that resolves about halfway through so there's some nice early relationship navigation too. the tags are accurate but don't really convey the vibe of it, the trauma stuff is fairly low-key and the general feel is uplifting. also, the choice of tattoo on Clint's ass is INSPIRED, just an absolute *chef's kiss* bit of characterization there

Days That Used To Last A Lifetime, by @there-must-be-a-lock (10k) in which Clint is a dog walker and Bucky is a shameless flirt and both of them are a hot mess and do a lot of recreational drugs and end up murmuring secrets to strangers at ass o'clock in the morning in someone else's apartment

Sequestered, by @lizabethl (38k) in which Clint and Bucky are separately sent off to the same beach house for a much-needed vacation, then hop back on duty just long enough to temporarily acquire a child. deals with some tough stuff but it's mostly about healing and connection and growth

Hydra's Bite, by @flawedamythyst (118k) Buffy AU with a long piney slow burn and great found-family vibes. Clint is the Xander who rescues Bucky from a nest of hydras, Natasha is the Slayer, Coulson is kind of the Giles except undead, Jarvis is the ghost butler, Bruce has a demon living in him, and Tony inherited leadership of the Watchers' Council from his dad. also there's a running joke about all the demons Clint has fucked XD

quickly dream away the time; and then the moon, by @cloud--atlas (16k) Clint is housesitting Tony Stark's mansion in the Hamptons when Lucky gets through a hole in the hedge and makes friends with the hot rich neighbor

Gonna Be My Girl?, by @mightymightygnomepriest (46k) Clint and Bucky hook up while Clint is dressed up as a schoolgirl for Halloween, then they both make some assumptions they shouldn't be making and Clint keeps fucking Bucky in girl mode only. I'm not generally a fan of this kind of miscommunication-based plot, but this one really worked for me

The Middle of the Story, by @lissadiane (13k) look. I know you're gonna read the tag "Clint is literally a unicorn" and immediately want to roll your eyes and close the tab. I know. just... *takes you by the shoulders and looks intensely into your eyes* just trust me, okay

Personal Security (Let's Go Steal Ourselves a Remix), by @supervillainny (8k) Clint develops an inconvenient crush on the head of security at the art gallery he and Nat are about to rob

Boris the Soviet Love Hammer, by @bittercape (11k) the title/tags/summary make this one sound way crackier than it is, it's just a fun get-together fic with a few shenanigans. the part where they're fighting bad guys and Steve goes "Hawkeye, NO" and Clint is just like :D "Hawkeye yes" :D made me laugh very very hard

Universal Constant, by @mariana-oconnor (16k) Clint gets knocked into another dimension where Bucky is a stripper, bangs him, then finds that dimension's Clint and bangs both of them together. A+ no notes

how do you want me, by @feathers-and-cigarettes and @sevdrag (6k) deliciously twisted hookup-turned-attempted-murder-turned-back-to-hookup

All Bark, All Bite, by @hawksonfire (6k) he was a werewolf, he was a vampire, can I make it any more obvious

Writing Patterns (Tag Game)

Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

Thank you @stripedscribe and @mutuallyprime for tagging me in this!

1. Foggy Nelson had never been a scaredy-cat. (Not how this was supposed to work)

2. When Foggy comes home late, be it because he had a client meeting, met with some friends, or had other errands to run, it is usually to the same scene. (Hooks and Needles)

3. When Foggy heard footsteps out in his garden of petrified figures, he sighed. (Garden of Stone)

4. Matt knew that something was different the second he pushed the front door open. (You're Lucky You're Cute)

5. Matt was sitting on a rooftop. (Finding your mind)

6. “Why do you always dress masc?” Clint asked Bruce. (It's about feeling pretty)

7. Clint woke up. (This is not the end (Oh, how I wish it had been))

8. “What are you doing?” Foggy asks, looking down at Matt, who seems to have decided he is a monkey now and Foggy is the cosiest tree around. (The Minidevil)

9. Matt didn’t remember how or even when exactly it had started that they said it. (I've meant it all)

10. Clint was lying in bed. (The Color of Pain)

This is a pretty good image of the way I start almost all my works. There is not really a start to them, they just take someone™️ and takes them somewhere™️ or let them say something™️.

I also write mostly past tense, but have had a few present tense fics recently. Usually I start them that way for some reason and then have to fight my way to the end.

Wip Warriors round 3.

WIP Warriors Round 3

Has it been two weeks already? I can't believe it myself.

But while we all have been working on something else, the time has come for another Round of this.

In the last two Rounds of this challenge I made very good progress on all my posted WIPS and got a lot of new chapters on near-abandoned works into the world.

This round, I'm switching it up a little and all fics in the poll are unposted WIPs.

Some of them already have quite a few words, some are barely more than an idea. And all of them desperately need some love.

Keeping the crazy going, I will write 10 sentences per vote, so... go wild! Click some buttons!

Secret extra option: Don't you have exams? - Yes, shut up. /lh
