Summary:

Her heart was racing, her mind tuned into every touch and feeling, electric excitement buzzing in her skin at the soft kiss they shared by her bed. Gentle breaths hitting her skin and the echo of her own bouncing back. No shirts, just the soft contact of skin as Steve held her waist and she held his neck. She led him over and down to sit on the bed, keeping the contact above all else. Warm, soft, and absolutely thrilling.

Just go home… okay…

Her heart was racing. Her mind tuned into every touch and feeling. An electric anxiety buzzing through her skin and swimming in her gut.

AKA Nancy is *trying* to have a good time with her boyfriend after season 1. It would be a lot easier if the last time they did this wasn’t the same night her best friend died, but she needs the break to avoid those thoughts, even just for a night. Apparently, she doesn’t get a choice.

[dreamfinder10]

Angsty and sad but I do love fics about Steve and Nancy’s relationship the first time around. They really never stood a chance after what happened to Barb and it’s so sad but this is why I’m rooting for them in season 5. I really want Nancy to stop blaming herself and Steve for Barbs death and finally get to be happy with someone she loves and who really loves her.

Do you ever just cry because End Game is real? That was really what they gave us. We waited years and they gave us professor hulk, ruined Steve's character AND Peggy's character, made Clint an angsty serial killer for no reason, made fun of Thors mental health, and killed Nat and Tony. That was real. Do you ever just cry?

Some Romanogers fic recs

So I had an anon message sitting in my inbox for forever asking me to recommend some fics. I feel like I’ve made a post somewhere before but I didn’t want to go through my blog to look for it. Anyway, here’s a list of all my faves in no particular order. Some of them were written long ago and some are more recent, but all are FANTASTIC READS.

(and also, I’m not saying I deserve to be on this list of amazing authors… but I’ve got some fics too! xo_stardust720)

End of Series

[unthinkableinevitablehappyending]

Who the fuck decided that happy endings are boring?? That characters being happy was boring??? Cause fuck that shit no one wants a sad ending they’re awful and usually just for shock value. Give me a happy ending any day I’d rather watch my favorite ship and characters grow and change and fall in love and find their place in the world then watch them die and fall into pits of despair and never getting to live their lives 

[dreamfinder10]

I know right! I guess I’m the weirdo for not wanting the character that I’ve been watching for the last 10 years to die?

[dreamfinder10]

Does anyone else ever find themselves thinking about how perfect Season 1 of Agents of Shield was? Because I do... I do

[sentrysvoid]

I’ll never turn to the dark side. You’ve failed, Your Highness. I am a Jedi… like my father before me.

ADAM DRIVER on SNL | 25 January 2020

[dreamfinder10]

I love this

[dreamfinder10]

The most frustrating thing about being a fanboy or fangirl is the fact that you care more about the characters than the people making the movies or TV shows.

[dreamfinder10]

My favorite part of the Disney sequel trilogy was the first ever teaser trailer for the Force Awakens. I know you all remember it. An ominous voice says “There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?” Finns head pops up in his storm trooper armor. We see glimpses of BB8, Rey and Poe. Then we see Kylo walking in the forest and a voice says “the dark side” We don’t see his face but we see him ignite his awesome new lightsaber. Then the voice says “and the light” STAR WARS THEME starts blasting as the Millennium Falcon flies through the air. I didn’t know who anyone was yet or even who the voiceover was but I was HYPED. I could not have been more excited for the movies to come out.... Then they actually came out and I didn’t like any of them, but I still get chills from watching that teaser trailer. It was perfect.
