This one’s short (and doesn’t have any Steve in it, which is unusual *g*), but it doesn’t pull any punches – and I simply love how the noises Bucky makes (completely wordless, because that was taken from him, too) fit into the soundscape. Music: Data Romance – Night Section.
Vid: I Loved You First (Not Easily Conquered), by TeamHodgins
Womb to tomb, sweetheart.
An amazing vid for a breathtakingly heartwrenching fic. Music: Arctic, by Sleeping At Last.
A tribute to all the attractively falling (and just attractive) men of the MCU… Love it! Music by The Weather Girls.
Laura knows that expression simply because she herself wears it so often.
Falling for Clint Barton has its own particular facial expression – fond and exasperated and slightly sappy all at once. Though to be fair, on Natasha it’s more exasperated than sappy.
Teen, polyamory (not a threesome). Because if I was Laura, I’d enjoy imagining Clint and Natasha having sex, too. *g* This is how I can live with the weird farm family thing.
Vid: L.O.V.E. by purplefringe vids
One of my favourite adaptations of one of my favourite Shakespeare plays, this is just a delight – as is this vid, capturing the playful spirit of Beatrix and Benedick as well as their, well, LOVE! 🙂 Music by Nat King Cole.
Don’t worry it, he meant to say, but he didn’t have the chance. The move was ill-timed, and their fingers brushed. Their hands caught in midair and dropped to the earth together. The expression on Nix’s face reminded Dick of earlier, in the road.
Adult, Winters’ POV. 18′000+ words of feels about Winters and Nix, all of them perfect in their hesitant unavoidability.
“We have three spare bedrooms, Katniss,” Peeta says softly. He begins cutting the cookie dough into little shapes, the cutter’s rhythmic thump breaking the tension that still sizzles between them. “You can go out. You can hunt. You don’t even have to see him.“
But she knows better. Because there are nights she still dreams of Gale and wonders what he’s doing now, what they could be doing together. And since when has she ever been able to deny her curiosity? She’ll see him, all right. And every single piece of shit will hit the fan in a second.
Adult, post-canon, polyamory. I haven’t even read or seen the entire Hunger Games trilogy, but re-watching the first movie (and drooling over Gale *g*) got me curious – and this fic is peek into the future that seems totally in keeping, even improving on it. Also, it’s hot as anything! 😉
Ariadne repeats, “Arthur and Eames – they’re a bit childish, don’t you think. This isn’t preschool. Eames flirts by kicking over Arthur’s chairs for heavens sake.”
“Flirts?” Cobb asks, surprised.
Teen, post-movie. Ariadne is having problems figuring out what Arthur and Eames are to each other… I love outside POV, and this is just lovely.
“I heard you’re the best shot on base,” Rogers said, staring out over the camp and toward the horizon. “Maybe the best shot in the Army.”
His head swung around in surprise when Bucky’s response came out in a bitter laugh and a puff of smoke. “You been asking around, private, I can guarantee that ain’t all you heard.” He arched an eyebrow, letting his gaze drift down the broad contours of a chest visible below the cotton of the private’s shirt. “You interested?”
Teen, a bit underage, comic!verse. Bucky’s never been the kid sidekick. This is intense, and I’m utterly in love with Bucky & Steve’s relationship here.
