Він вже зазирнув до зоомагазина, чотирьох ресторанів та перукарні (він ніц не знає про волосся, але впевнений, що із досвідом набув би й навичок), пекарні й шістьох відеосалонів. Йому відмовили в працевлаштуванні усюди, що, на думку Свлада, було дещо нетактовно. Адже, відверто кажучи, вони навіть не знають, на що він спроможний. Десь у Сохо Свлад натрапляє на велику книжкову крамницю, яка виглядає так, ніби стоїть там вічність, з оцими своїми чудовими широкими вікнами й розкішним дерев'яним фасадом. Над вхідними дверима написано, що вона належить такому собі містеру Езрі Феллу. Влаштуватися на роботу до книгарні Свлад ще не пробував. Втім, може, там йому також дадуть відкоша.

Єдине, що йому відомо — що світ буцімто… вібрує. Не буквально. Але щось у Всесвіті тремтить і зсовується. А потім все припиняється — так само раптово, як і почалося. Історія Дірка — одразу після того, як світу не настав кінець.

Кроулі возиться з головоломкою — тою, де треба дроти розплутувати. — Просто заходиш кудись й кажеш, що тепер тут живеш, — відповідає Кроулі. — Я так роблю принаймні. — Не слухай його, — суворо зиркаючи на Кроулі, каже Дірку Азирафаїл.

We’re getting settled into the new location,” Leia answers. “I’m sending some people out for supply runs.”

“So should I-“

“You’re grounded. So is Poe.”

Rey sits up indignantly. “I’m what?”

“I already fought this fight, sister,” Poe says, tugging on his yarn. “And I didn’t get anywhere.”

“You and Dameron have had a hell of a few days. I don’t want you in the air or on the ground. You’re grounded.”

They sit in silence, drinking their beverages, for about three minutes until Darcy speaks.

“Have you got a name?” He’s quiet so she shrugs. “You don’t have to tell me, I was just curious.”

“Buchanan,” he finally mutters.

“First or last?”

He shrugs and she rolls with it. “Okay. I’m Darcy.”

Darcy helps James Barnes heal, piece by piece.

So, ages ago, I was doing this whole thing where I said nice stuff about my work. It’s very cringey to me now, but I did like the kind of commentary aspect to it. So for now at least, I’m gonna do commentaries for the fics I’m more proud of! Here’s the entry for this one. Apparently you can no longer put read mores on tumblr mobile, which is fun, so apologies for the length of the post, I’ll slap a read more on this sucker when I get a chance to access my computer.

To be honest, I was a bit embarrassed about this fic for a while. I remember people talking about how people would ship Darcy with anything that moved, and I felt pretty awkward that I’d done the same thing and I felt rather silly about it. But I reread the story recently and was surprised to see that actually, it wasn’t that bad. Kinda fun, in its way. I still feel a little silly about it sometimes, but I think it’s a pretty decent work, on the whole.

I think the biggest thing I regret about this story isn’t actually a regret I have about this story. The sequel to this fic has Darcy and Bucky get together, and while the story itself isn’t the worst thing I’ve ever written, I actually think that choice makes this fic worse. If I were writing this series now, I would have them remain very close friends but stay out of a romantic relationship.

I wrote the main structure for this a few days ago and I’ve been thinking about it since then and I think what draws me to this fic still is that in a lot of ways it’s a relic of what the Marvel fandom used to think about the way the Avengers interacted with each other. The problems of the Marvel fandom now were certainly problems of the fandom in the early to mid 2010s, and I am in no way trying to say that it was perfect. But I saw someone say once that they never let the Avengers be friends in the MCU, and I think that’s what I’m wistful for. I did like that part of the era where we wrote the Avengers all living in the Tower and acting like a family very much. Really any fic I’ve written that contain the Avengers as a whole reflects that. I think that’s really what resonates with me about this fic- not Darcy and Bucky, not the plot, but the sense of friendship and family that, while it flourished in the fandom, was lacking in the MCU itself.

Let’s get into the commentary!

-I really do love the days where the Avengers all lived in the Tower together. 2012 Marvel had its issues, but that was not one of them. it’s one of my favorite things to write: the headspace I tend to exist in when it comes to Marvel is AU after Winter Soldier, and this atmosphere is really my sweet spot

-I felt like it would be too easy to have Darcy see the Winter Soldier file and be like “oh it’s completely fine!”. anyone I think would need a few days to work through that, and I wanted the fact that she chose Bucky to be in spite of her initial anxiety about him instead of blithely being okay with it

-we didn’t have enough Jane in the MCU. this isn’t a story note, I’m just saying

-something about the Immigrant Song line rubs me the wrong way now. couldn’t tell you why but I don’t like it

-I don’t know why I thought salons have showers in the back

-Clint deserved a personality and I do my best to give him one in every fic I write

-how did Bucky afford an apartment in New York with rooms plural? the world may never know

-the author is imploring you to never go driving around a city to solely populate your home with sidewalk furniture

They lie there for a little while, gazing at each other, holding hands. It’s another one of those moments from earlier, where there’s nothing Todd would rather do than stare at the face of the man he’s been looking at every day for eight months. He feels like he might be finding new things in it, like he might always find new things in it.

This is from a sneak peek of @cipollakate (AKA @cosmicoceanfic) and @princessparadoxical‘s as of yet unpublished fic which I was DELIGHTED to read- I can’t wait for the finished product, I know it’s gonna hurt so good!

Padmé’s seen the holo footage of Darth Vader, striding through battlefields, through meetings, and he always moves imposingly, ominously, like he has somewhere to be and someone to kill at the end of it.

He doesn’t look like that right now, though. Right now he appears almost to be hovering awkwardly, and she flashes back to all those moments in their apartment where her husband, young and kind and usually brash but occasionally unbelievably shy, wanted to talk to her about something and was plucking up the nerve.

Padmé wonders when the last time Vader felt uncertain was, or shy.

A missing scene from "you're gonna wish you never had met me", where Padme and Vader talk to each other for the first time in decades.

I haven’t updated this series in four years and I don’t even know if I had this blog up and running four years ago, so there’s a very good shot that some of y’all do not know what the fuck this is and I have the utmost respect for that.
