hi! i know i’m several years late, but i’ve spent the past few days reading HFoG and i don’t think words can describe how involved and invested i am in that fic. it is so beautifully written, the characters are all so endearing and characterized really well, and i’ve loved the plot and the slow burning and yearning. i’m only about halfway through but i already know this fic is going to become a comfort fic for me that i revisit again and again! i just wanted to thank you for sharing such an amazing story with us!

It is so sweet of you to take the time to reach out and say this. I am always incredibly delighted (and a bit awed) that people take the time to read such a long fic, and it makes me really happy to know that you're enjoying it, no matter when! It's never too late to read someone's fic. 😊

this is a silly headcanon, but how do you think any character of your choice would react to you catching them watching their guilty pleasure tv show? (and what would the guilty pleasure show be?)
Thank you, Neptune!! 🥺🥺💖💖💖
I love this headcanon, it's not silly at all! I ended up... going a lottle overboard with it though, so please enjoy headcanons for: Helmut Zemo, Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, Sam Wilson, and Andy Barber, all under the cut because it's long and I'm... a lot.
Thank you for the opportunity to think too much about them, and now I wish I was curled up with all of them watching whatever show they want.
Helmut Zemo
Guilty Pleasure Show: Agatha Christie’s Poirot (featuring David Suchet)
He enjoys murder mysteries, things that puzzle the mind, and even though he insists the directors put enough clues into the episodes to help anyone solve them, he’s often frustrated when the twist makes no sense.
Catching him watching Poirot is an interesting experience — he’ll always invite you to watch, happy to let you curl up next to him on the couch even though Suchet’s voice inevitably makes you fall asleep. What will wake you is Helmut muttering curses under his breath at an absurd twist that derails the entire course of the mystery, suddenly pointing to a random element as the murderer instead of the person the show made you suspect all along. He very rarely loses his temper, especially not at a television show, but his disappointment in poor writing is often worse than his anger anyway.
Steve Rogers
Guilty Pleasure Show: Great British Bake-Off and Blown Away
Yes, both of these, because he vacillates between enjoying food shows — Great British Bake-Off is just an example, he’s completely find watching Anthony Bourdain and does not count anything by Alton Brown a guilty pleasure because he still uses those episodes to experiment in the kitchen when he insists on making dinner because he knows you’re too tired — and snickering under his breath at the fact that they call the glass ovens in Blown Away “glory holes” and other in-show innuendos.
He often watches guilty-pleasure shows like these as background noise, when he’s drawing or when he’s just settling down for bed and you’re working too late to join him, but on the occasion that you catch him watching, he’ll usually just flash you that perfect, sheepish smile and offer to change the show. You never agree, because why would you want to take away the thing that brings him joy, even if it’s secret between the both of you? You just offer to let him lay in your lap instead while he watches, so he can relax for once and you can play with his hair while you both watch — and critique the glass-art with all the cruelty of the judges (and sometimes more).
Bucky Barnes
Guilty Pleasure Show: Literally any space documentary and no, it doesn’t have to be recent
Though haunted by his past, Bucky Barnes does try to look towards the future, and there’s something hopeful about documentaries about space and the mysteries of the universe that make him feel… calm. He loves putting them on and just laying down, watching until he falls asleep and Netflix starts questioning whether he’s still paying attention.
Whenever you catch him like this, he’s honestly usually fast asleep. It’s actually adorable, really, how peaceful he looks. You usually just tell Netflix that yes he’s still watching and then proceed to tuck him into bed.
Sam Wilson
Guilty Pleasure Show: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
He’s not actually guilty about this — he can and will shoehorn Crazy Ex-Girlfriend songs into everyday conversation with you and you will always roll your eyes at him when he does. He’s taken you to at least one Crazy Ex-Girlfriend concert live, and no he’s not sorry. In his defense, it was excellent and you thoroughly enjoyed it.
Usually, you’ll catch him watching the show late at night because he can’t sleep, and it’s always just the highlights of his favorite episodes instead of actually watching for the plot. Sometimes you’ll catch him singing but not always — you just put your headphones in and let your podcasts run when he gets really into it, tucking yourself against him and having a lazy night doing whatever you want. Doesn't matter, as long as the two of you are together.
Andy Barber
Guilty Pleasure Show: Boston Legal (yes, with William Shatner and James Spader)
Look. As a lawyer, I know other lawyers. We love to hate legal dramas because they’re unethical, get the law wrong, and usually result in us getting clients coming in saying, “Well I saw James Spader in Boston Legal and he did…” and they never believe us when we tell them it’s a show and that’s not how things actually work in the courtroom.
But he loves it.
He loves watching all the nonsense they get up to in the show, he loves roasting the bad legal theory — he has an entire notebook dedicated to the bad legal theory, it’s genuinely comical— and if you catch him watching it, he’ll usually just flash you a sheepish grin before inviting you to join in and mock the show with him.
He does slightly admire Spader’s gumption though — and occasionally gets ideas for how he wants to treat you in the office.
LAYLA: guess who is the new fav??
LAYLA: your dog likes me better now ;D
LAYLA: that’s what you get for leaving all day
LAYLA: we’re now best friends and he gets all the kisses <3
here’s my impersonation of you: hmmm today when i log onto dumblr.com i will write a fic that is wildly creative and borderline poetic, spontaneously shower my mutuals in support, kindness, and love just because i feel like it, and reblog some silly memes about being a writer and having too many wips than what’s good for me 🙂 (and maybe if i’m feeling crazy i’ll use some lawyer jargon)
Neptune I can't tell you shit, you're gonna steal my identity and then there's gonna be two of me running around. And that's too much chaos. These mushrooms got knives.
You're the best and I adore you — and I DEFINITELY reblog too many memes oh my god I need to be STOPPED.
I will not, however, stop showering you and all my friends in love and support. All of you get gentle smooches and hugs and blankets, no, I will not take arguments otherwise (unless you don't want to be touched I guess, in which case... blanket?)
This is me, lovingly smooching you right now.
Oh god the legal jargon though I also need to be STOPPED.

Nonsense, not a terrible friend at all!! Thank you so so much for the birthday wishes, my beloved, and I am so very grateful for you! I have not partied but I will this weekend, and the birthday ain't over until this mushroom gets some bubble tea and that hasn't happened yet so the party won't stop.
dreams about your past relationships is very mercury retrograde of your brain 😬 hopefully things feel a little better with more time!
Thank you! What’s worse is that it wasn’t even an actual relationship! And! I added him on sc tonight, which I got again for the first time in years. Just embracing the bad vibes and seeing where they go 🤞🤭
