a fic.

[falling_voices]

Wow, LJ, it's been a while. Like a year and a half a while. Hi.

radialarch and I have been writing a collab the past couple weeks! We've been yelling at each other about Steve/Bucky a lot on chat for the past ... months ... so we eventually said fuck it and wrote up a courtroom media. Then it turned into media fic. WHAT CAN YOU DO.

I am politely not going to scream and descend into gibbering because you're now playing in my current One True Fandom, with my current OTP. Witness my self-restraint, for it is Herculean.

In other words, YAY OMG. And yes, I did just follow you on Tumblr despite being a total lurker there. HI.

I SAW. HI, YOU. <3 i'd have followed back, except, well. i admit, one of the drawbacks of leaving lj for tumblr is that i no longer got to talk to you.

i wish i'd known! steve/bucky's my primary otp at the moment, and i don't see that changing anytime soon. i've been sucked in by enjolras/grantaire for a while last year, after getting increasingly disillusioned with sherlock & sherlock fandom, but steve/bucky hit me in the face in ... february this year, i think? couple months before ca:tws came out. i swear, this ship has every single thing i love about any pairing, ever.

(i see you've been going through a leverage frenzy as well! :D :D)

I'm still here! I am much more of a lurker than previously (stress/depression/anxiety kills my creative urge apparently) but I still check my flist every day. I mostly hang out on Twitter though (@aka_vee). I'm trying to get back into the habit of journaling, because I miss it a lot. Tumblr is good for the pretty/shiny, but not so much for meta/conversation.

Steve/Bucky is ridiculous. I was neck-deep in Steve/Tony for a year or so until Winter Soldier happened, and now I can't think about anything that isn't codependent nonagenarian supersoldiers. ♥

... well, yes, except for my vacation in Leverage-land. I was watching it back in the day and then Nate fucking Ford and his boring manpain got to be too much, but I'm glad I finally went back and watched the rest. Eliot/Parker/Hardison OT3 foreverrrrrrrrr.

Well, I've followed you on twitter - bearing in mind that I literally use twitter to talk to maybe three people, tops. Yeah, unfortunately, Tumblr lacks the opportunities for interaction that LJ had; I've gotten used to the tag culture, but the fact that you have to use a cheat code just to preserve your outgoing messages kind of says it all. I'm assuming fandom will migrate to a different platform eventually, though!

IT'S A PROBLEM. Fandom isn't providing me with enough WWII-era fic for them, tbh, but it's very generous in pretty much everything else. ♥

Fun fact: this fic was kind of born because of the Leverage trial ep? Aldis Hodge looks really good in a suit, and it all ... snowballed from there. I'm still baffled by how blatant the OT3 is, tbqh. Even the actors seem to have gone 'oh yeah. That's a thing.' (They die hand-in-hand! Goshhhh. what do you mean it's not a real death. they'll definitely go like that in the end, shhhh)
