Marvel RarePair Exchange

Track #marvelrarepair exchange for all the announcements!

Hi folks!

Unfortunately, I’m not going to be able to run a summer round of the exchange this year - I’ve accepted a very cool job for the summer that will necessitate a big move and take up a lot of my time, which is awesome! But bad news for the exchange.

Which brings me to my point: would anyone be interested in taking up the mantle on my behalf? You would have admin access to this blog and also access to all of my google docs/forms/etc that I’ve used in the past.

Drop me an ask if you’re interested!

Thanks!

I'm still looking for a few pinch hitters! If you're interested in helping out, please send me an ask and I'll link you to the pinch hitter info. No need to commit if you aren't comfortable with the prompts that need filling. Thank you so much to all of the pinch hitters - you guys are rock stars.

Hi! How do we find out if our exchange (the post written FOR you, not BY you, I guess) has been done? Have all the stories already been posted to the exchange or are some still being uploaded in chunks?

If you put marvelrarepairexchange.tumblr.com/tagged/(your url), the post written by you and the post written for you should both come up. They should be in your tag if you track it also. 

Alternatively, feel free to drop an ask and I can link you.

There are a few people (you included, unfortunately) whose gifts haven't been posted yet because people have missed the posting deadline. All of the gifts that were submitted on time have been posted.

Everyone who submitted a gift is going to receive one in return - it  may take a few extra days, for which I apologize.

If you're interested in helping out - ie, pinch hitting on a super tight turnaround - please drop me an ask!

To everyone who is celebrating Christmas today - hope you are having a merry one!

Title: Go Figure Author/Artist: margaretrogers (hollyhawke) Recipient: daria234/storiesfortravellers Ship(s):  Sam/Steve Characters: Sam Wilson, Steve Rogers Summary:

“I’ve never been ice skating before,” Steve protests, but it’s a weak one because he already knows he’s going to say yes.

“I used to ice skate all the time growing up,” Sam tells him, hooking Steve’s arm through his and tugging him gently towards the rink, and Steve can’t possibly refuse.

Title: Dancing On The Finest Line

Author/Artist: davidsalleynes

Recipient: z-delenda-est

Ships: Clint Barton/Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers/Peggy Carter (Background) Characters: Clint Barton, Bucky Barnes, Buck Chisholm, Original Characters, Steve Rogers, Kate Bishop, Peggy Carter

Summary: During training, they’d been picked out for a special regiment. A few people from each platoon were chosen for the program, but in the end only twelve men are left; only the best of the best. Bucky didn’t know what happened to the others, and he didn’t care to think about it, either. It was only then that they were told just what they had gotten themselves into. They had been picked for a special division of snipers. They were stripped of rank and number and told that their real training started then. ——— Or: In Which I Watch Band Of Brothers, Get Overwhelmed With Emotions, And Try To Write A War Story Of My Own.
