What if I just took a total left-turn from wine aunt to weed aunt?

#would you guys still like me be honest? #no but seriously haven't had a drink in a week and ive just been coming home #going on a run and then taking an edible and I'm sleeping fine no nightmares no fucked up sleep walking or whatever #and then i wake up without a hangover at a normal time of the morning naturally and of my own accord #it's magical #I'm not going full teatotal or anything - you can pry my summer weekend outside beer from my cold dead hands - #but like... i feel like a human person #still a self medicating human person obviously but still

Last song I listened to: "Turn the Lights Back On" by Billy Joel because I am obsesssssssed with it.

Currently reading: Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. My son is in deep with this series and he wanted me to read it so I am.

Currently watching: A few things, actually. Miss Scarlet and the Duke (new ep today!), The Floor (I'm a sucker for a trivia show), yet another Scrubs rewatch, and the fam and I are watching Sweet Tooth together.

Currently obsessed with: Honestly, this Billy Joel song is right up there. Also finishing my smut swap, though I have no writing time during the week and cannot seem to focus during the couple of hours I have during the weekend so maybe not 'obsessed' so much as 'freaked out I may have to default for the first time ever' heh. We'll see how today goes. Also I have started jogging for the first time in my life and...I kind of love it??? Who am I?!

Here's the song though.

I think I'm supposed to tag people so, uh, @teatotally, @gabolange, @intoni, @intellectualhedonist, and @starsgoblue.

🎬 If a movie or show were based on your fic, which fic would you choose and who would you fancast?

Thank you for the ask, @teatotally! 

While I think a mission fic would be fun to see (something like Leverage or Kiss the Messenger), I would LOVE if my Hitman space/sci-fi AU Five Minutes was made into a film/show. The fic has so much potential for incredible acting and cinematography that I think would come across beautifully if it had the right creative team making it.

As for casting: there’s an amazing fancast project for a Netflix series called Burnwood that @apricotbones and @cicaklah created, which stars Rosamund Pike as Diana Burnwood and Mark Strong as Agent 47. I think they would be absolutely fantastic at portraying the hope and melancholy of the fic.

But also I like the idea of the characters’ voice actors playing the parts, with Jane Perry as Diana Burnwood and David Bateson as Agent 47.

Either way, it’s a win-win!

Jeremiah: Also Jeremiah has been occasionally been dropping truth bombs at the party.

DM: Hmm. *already seeing where it's going*

Jeremiah: Mostly directed at, picking at Tark to be honest.

DM: Why would you do this? Why would you do this thing?

Marigold (OOC): Apparently no sense of self-preservation.

DM: Apparently not.

Hunt (OOC): Apparently with a Wisdom of 16, he doesn't have a sense of preservation.

Tark (OOC): But also, *cuts out* if anything he says is gonna like affect Tark in any way.

DM: True.

Tark (OOC): Cute. Tark has two siblings and one's a sister. There's nothing. There's nothing this frog can say.

DM: And they're both younger than him.

Hunt (OOC): Mm-hmm.

DM: You grew up without any kind of dignity.

Tark (OOC): So there's like no way. Yeah, no. That's the reason why Tark's the way he is, no dignity whatsoever.

Hunt (OOC): Alright, so what kind of 'truth bombs' has Jeremiah been dropping?

Jeremiah: Mostly is like, stuff like his actual opinon on people, like for instance; he really doesn't like Tark. Never liked him, thinks he's garish and a fool. He thinks that Hunt is a prude and a teatotaler.

Hunt (OOC): *never having heard that word before* What was that last part?

Nathaniel (OOC): *thinking Jeremiah was still on about Tark* I'm sorry, a 'prude'?

Jeremiah (OOC): Yeah.

DM: That's so far from the truth.

Jeremiah (OOC): No, Hunt.

-various 'ohs'-

Jeremiah: Hunt is a prude and a teatotaler. (OOC): I forget what...

Marigold (OOC): You mean like teatotal sober.

Jeremiah (OOC): Yeah that.

Marigold (OOC): Yeah.

Hunt: And Hunt's trying to figure out where the prude thing came from. She's not gonna ask, but she's wondering how he got that impression.

Tark: We're all sitting there exchanging looks behind the frog's back like, 'what?'

Marigold (OOC): [in chat] the frog is a aphobe

Nathaniel (OOC): [in chat] if jeremiah is being aphobic on main I really will incinerate him

Jeremiah (OOC): Who else is gonna be taking shots at?

Tark (OOC): It's funny anything he's saying though is *cuts out*

Nathaniel (OOC): Can't be offended by somebody you don't have respect for.

#D&D mischief #Relni campaign #Relni Recap #Relni Chapter 38 #not sure why Jeremiah thought the Roses would care about his opinion of them #they practically just met and not on good terms with one another #I'm thinking that a reason why Jeremiah doesn't like Tark may be because Tark doesn't tolerate his attitude #I'm wondering if social etiquette between the two planes is vastly different #that what Jeremiah did towards Hunt was considered normal #whereas if the same thing was done on the Material Plane it would be wildly inappropriate

teatotally replied to your post “Fanfiction Work-In-Progress Guessing Game”

breath/e ?

From the wildly unmanageable ace!Bitty longfic:

"So my next question is, uh," Jack took a breath. He couldn't not ask, now that he'd thought of it as something in question. Not knowing would be worse, and he didn't need that particular anxiety spiral attaching to that particular stress-relieving activity. "I... have thought about you. Sexually. Does that bother you? That I have? Would it bother you if I did in the future?"

Fic Rec Friday  2.14

Meanwhile, I’ve found the Captain America Reverse Big Bang 2017 collection, as well as mining the bookmarks from EVERY CA AUTHOR I’VE BEEN READING.

Captain America:

Your Lack Of An Answer Is Kind Of An Answer: Four Questions Natasha Asked Steve Rogers, And One Time Bucky Barnes Answered by Speranza  | 4.4K | M | Bucky/Steve

"All right, I have a question for you. Oh, but you don’t have to answer it. I feel like if you don't answer it though, you're kind of answering it, you know…"

Memories are Made of This by eleveninches  | 13.2K | T | Bucky/Steve

Nearly a year after turning himself into SHIELD and the Avengers, Bucky struggles to find himself in the 21st century. Unfortunately, no one told him about the aliens.

Dream of Caramel: or, A Recipe for Disaster by gwyneth rhys  | 17K | T | Bucky/Steve

But none of that explains why right now Clint’s pants are literally on fire and Barnes is pitching an entire five-pound bag of pastry flour straight at Clint’s crotch with his metal arm.

lonely houses off the road by Etharei  | 17.4K | T | Bucky/Steve

Barnes is now glaring at him for some reason. It's somewhat terrifying but also, oddly, a little reassuring— because that's emotion right there, which means there's still somebody behind those eyes. Somebody who seems to think Sam is being a bit slow on the uptake. "Time parameters exceeded. Mission failed."

"Wait." Sam narrows his eyes. "Is this some kind of... report? Debriefing?"

"Mission report," confirms Barnes, looking pleased. Well, looking slightly less murderous than before.

In which various people deal with things they never signed up for, but at the end of the day no one's particularly surprised.

This Fledgling Thing by snarklyboojum  | 24.4K | T | Steve/Sam, Bucky/Steve/Sam

They say 'a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush' but Sam has pretty big hands and he'd prefer the birds to keep their beaks out of his love life, thanks.

- Sam can talk to birds and I love this????

Catfish by L1av  | 28.4K | E | Bucky/Steve

Catfish /ˈkatˌfiSH/ - A catfish is someone who pretends to be someone they're not using Facebook or other social media to create false identities, particularly to pursue deceptive online romances.

Steve Rogers is a famous movie star, known for his role as Captain America. Bucky Barnes is a bored law student who drinks too much wine. Bucky gets on match.com to boost his confidence. What he doesn't expect is a guy using Steve Rogers' pictures on a dating profile. Bucky decides to mess with the guy. After all, what idiot uses Steve Rogers' pictures on a dating site?

Not like it's really him, right? Bucky may need more wine.

Strays by snarklyboojum  | 33.5K | T | Bucky/Steve

After finding himself alone for the first time in decades, the Winter Soldier learns how to be a person again. Mostly through caring for an orphaned kitten, countless rounds of YouTube roulette, and stalking Captain America.

Or: Bucky Barnes, accidental millennial.

Postcards from Golgotha by kariye  | 41.4K | E | Bucky/Steve

They say that once you give your heart away, it’s never really yours again. Oh, you can take it back if you want, of course. You can try to reclaim it. But once it’s beat in your lover’s chest and his blood has flowed through it, it can never truly belong to you again, now, can it.

Or,

A story about Bucky Barnes’s heart.

- FYI, ambiguous/not a happy ending! If you’re looking for happy endings, maybe skip this one!

Collected Bones of All Kinds by hansbekhart  | 70.3K | Works: 3 | E | Bucky/Steve

There was a reason that he ran, but he doesn’t remember anymore. He was on his way to the extraction - waiting for night to fall so that he could travel inconspicuously - crouched in a hollow on the roof of an old brick building - a warehouse, maybe - and the fading light - the light caught - on a blond head down below on the street. Laughter, and a cadence to the man’s speech that sounded familiar, misplaced R’s and blurry Th’s, quarter, water, this, that, the other one.

- This series is officially one of my faves

Einherjar by thecommodore_squid  | 71.2K | M | Bucky/Steve

But Steve was fine.

Sure, he hadn’t seen Bucky in months, and sometimes he was at the punching bag so long that his skin started to peel off to expose the bones of his fingers, and sometimes he couldn’t find the energy to drag himself out of bed, and sometimes he went weeks without sleeping, and sometimes he thought about throwing himself head-first off the nearest tall structure, but he was fine.

He was absolutely, perfectly, one-hundred percent, fucking fine.

AKA In which Steve learns how to deal with his shit, and Bucky learns how to stop leaving.

Make a Thing Go Right by hansbekhart  | 100K | E | Bucky/Sam (endgame), brief Bucky/Steve/Sam

Sam meets Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes on a Thursday night, at a burlesque show, and how it happens is this:

It's already late, later than he should be out on a weeknight, but the theme of the show was a super hero revue and there was no way he was gonna miss that. It's loud in the venue, which is the back space of what probably used to be a warehouse right near the Gowanus Canal, and Sam's already had a few. He's up at the bar during the break, watching the act. He doesn't hear someone say, "Behind!" so when he steps away from the bar, he smashes right into the guy who'd just done the Captain America routine up on stage, and knocks his drinks to the ground.

-

Or, I wanted to see more stories that captured the weirdness and complexity of being queer, in your late 20s, and trying to date in Brooklyn - which is my life - so I wrote one. Takes place in the MCU.

Undertones and Overtures by RockSaltAndRoll  | 106.7K | E | Bucky/Steve

In which Steve is deaf and Bucky is an amputee.

Bucky Barnes is studying for his masters in Music Composition at Juilliard when he unexpectedly meets skinny little artist Steve Rogers in a book store one Saturday. They both have their issues and it’s going to take a lot to understand each other, but with a little help from friends and family, they might be able to make this work.

Teen Wolf:

Department Six by DiscontentedWinter  | 4.1K | G | background Derek/Stiles

Or, five times Stiles and Danny’s colleagues had no idea what was going on. And one time they did.

- Outsider POVs are also my jam!

        “This is one of my favorites. This is my copy of Liber Juratus Honorii. You can imagine, it was rather difficult to find in the original Latin, it simply wasn’t printed the way later works were, the way Agrippa was and the later grimoires of Honorius.” She offers him the leather-bound book. “As far as I know this is from a late sixteenth-century publisher who copied it from one of the British manuscripts--I have it written down somewhere, the reference number--but published in France. It’s so funny, isn’t it, the genealogy of these sorts of things?”

[sineala]

teatotally replied to your post: Sine, I'm trying to get into 616 comicsverse...

I think I get what OP is saying—it drives me nuts that they stress the wrong words a lot of times. Like no one would be hitting the particular words they choose. If I was the copy editor I’d be questioning them all the time about why they’re emphasizing those particular words. ��

I get your point! But I don’t think they’re generally trying to stress words to match a speech pattern -- I mean, some of them are, but not most of the time. I think they’re just trying to highlight things that you need to know while you’re reading, like who the villain is, or if there’s something important that you need to look at in this panel, even if no one’s going to actually say it like that.

Like, to pick a random example from this week’s Avengers: Loki Unleashed:

I know, this one isn’t really that egregious, but I had it open, and it’s by an an older writer, so the older trends are more prevalent.

Would a regular person stress it that way in speech? No, probably not. But it tells you that in this panel Loki has a crystal (which he does) and you the reader should be paying attention to that when you’re looking at the art, and furthermore it’s his scrying sphere, and you should probably know that too.

I mean, if I were italicizing this as written speech I’d probably go for, like, “You’ve hardly spoken all day” and “as you know full well,” but comics aren’t necessarily trying to get that across; they’re helping cue you with how you read art.

That’s what I think, anyway.
