As we move into 2020 I like to reflect back over the year and this blog.
This year has been super weird. From finding out I had cancer to getting it removed and being declared cancer-free. Rebuilding my blog after I was terminated with no cause only to get my old blog back a year later. End Game. My state literally catching fire. Tumblr slowly dying. It’s been quite up and down. I’ll be glad to put an end to it.
Here are some of my Tumblr highlights.
Here are my top ten fics of the year:
Generations - Bucky Barnes/OFC, A woman with a cloudy past…and a baby comes into Bucky’s life, things get complicated. @thelookingglassalice
Anything in general from @winterhawkkisses. They’re like 75% of why I got into winterhawk as hard as I did. Nny writes so evocatively and with such care for the characters. Try these ones:
Santa Tell Me (If You’re Really There) - Brunnhilde/reader What do you tell your daughter when she asks if Santa Claus is real? @daenyara
Untitled Clint Barton/Natasha Romanoff, a gorgeous little snippet of the love between Clint and Nat. @ellewritesfiction
Want - Sam Wilson/Reader Sometimes love just looks a little different from the outside @avengersandlovers
The Fall - Bucky Barnes/unnamed ofc (so can kind of be read as a reader), Bucky meets a woman who is struggling with her own trauma, together they work out a way to move forward. @marvel-lucy
Out of the Shadows - Clint Barton/Reader, Clint is sent to arrest a cat burglar and makes a different choice. @until-theend-oftheline
Runaway - Sam Wilson/Reader A chance encounter in a toy aisle leaves Sam smiling. @blacktithe7
I want to hold your hand - Sam Wilson/Reader, A first date with Sam Wilson. @captainrogerss
Misdirected Competition - Bucky Barnes/Clint Barton “Take me laser tagging and then push me into a corner and kiss me. Shoot me, then walk away.” @fanficwriter013
Five fics I wrote this year that I’m proud of:
Undercover - Series You go on an undercover mission with your boyfriend Bucky and Clint Barton. When you and Clint have to pretend you’re in a relationship feelings become confused.* Clint Barton x Bucky Barnes x Reader
Bartoned - Series Clint’s name has become synonymous with fucking things up. When you have a one night stand with him, your whole life gets Bartoned. Clint Barton x Reader
The Unicorn – Series A story about love coming from unlikely places, polyamory and starting a family.* Pepper Potts x Tony Stark x Reader
Blank Space - Series Wanda has become used to the thoughts of others pressing down on her constantly until one day she meets you. A complete blank space in the world.* Wanda Maximoff x Reader
THE TOWER: THE QUEEN OF ASGARD The twins are now three and while the Avengers know that Clint and Thor are the biological father’s none of them know or care which blond, blue-eyed baby is related to which man. When Riley gets the power to control wind and it becomes evident that she is the heir to the Asgardian throne, Elly, Steve, Thor, and Tony take the twins to Asgard to train her. Not every Asgardian is happy with their king’s choice of consort, nor the impurity of the heir’s blood. While others expect Thor to make things more official. What’s clear is, the role of Queen of Asgard is not easily filled. Avengers x OFC

You make actually posting fics worth it. You’re the reason I’m as prolific as I am. And you’re the reason why I haven’t ever just abandoned a fic before. This site needs way more people like you.
