ahahaha lol nope it says there’s an error when I try to make a new post on potofsoup.   I’ll try again later

[potofsoup2]

holy shit tumblr has restored @potofsoup !   (Without telling me, and 10 months after they deleted it without telling me....)

Anyway, this weekend is Super Busy, but when I have time, I’ll port things back over there.

I’m still going to keep AO3 as the primary posting place, though, bc fuck tumblr

[potofsoup2]

I may have been a little salty about some of the things in Endgame.

[potofsoup2]

My @marveltrumpshate​ comic for the lovely @trappingsofzed ! She asked for a comic set in the Wuxia Avengers ‘verse that we collaborated on for CapRBB 2017.   Hopefully it works as a standalone, but I encourage you to read Wuxia Avengers: Heroes' Justice

Natasha is a fox spirit, and Bruce is a monk who accidentally became possessed by the buddhist Wisdom King Acala.

This comic is on AO3 here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/19781005/

Doing some housekeeping on my AO3, and realized that I didn’t crosspost this here way back in March (because my hatred for tumblr was CODE RED)

This was in the happy days before Endgame, where I had various headcanons about how the Dust World worked.

RECLAMATION

Artist: @potofsoup2 (AO3: soup_illustrations) Author: @dragongirlg-fics (AO3: dragongirlG) Created for the @capreversebb 2019 and @stuckybingo2019

Artwork Rating: Gen Story Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Word Count: 32K Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply;  Implied/Referenced Sexual Assault, Flashbacks, Past Violence Relationships: James “Bucky” Barnes & Steve Rogers, James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers, James “Bucky” Barnes & Original Characters Characters: James “Bucky” Barnes, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanov (Marvel), Sam Wilson (Marvel), Tony Stark, Minor Characters, Original Character(s) Additional Tags: Identity Porn, Self-Care, Self-Discovery, Identity Issues, Minor Original Character(s), Acts of Kindness, Pining, Memory Issues, Science Fiction, Nerdiness, Libraries, Construction Sites, Cryofreeze (Marvel), Research, Canon Divergence - Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Post-Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Winter Soldier Mask, Flashbacks, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff, Angst, Hopeful Ending

Summary: 

The Winter Soldier’s mask never falls off when he fights Captain America on the overpass and the helicarrier. That doesn’t stop the Soldier from recognizing Captain America and wondering why the man’s face is haunting his scattered memories.

After HYDRA falls, the Soldier appoints himself three missions: figure out his connection to Captain America, develop an optimal self-care routine, and re-establish his own identity in a world where he isn’t at HYDRA’s beck and call. When he unexpectedly encounters Captain America and his team of Avengers, he must figure out how to honor the man he used to be without sacrificing the man he’s become, all while hiding the face he shares with James Buchanan Barnes.

Written for the Captain American Reverse Big Bang 2019. Cross-fill for Stucky Bingo 2019, square: “identity porn.”

Rating: Mature

Relationships: Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes

Characters: Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, Arnie Roth (mentioned), Original Characters

Wordcount: 5122

Summary: Bucky knew that Steve was…different. 

None of that mattered, though. Steve was his best friend. He couldn’t imagine life without him. In a year or so, Steve would find a nice girl and settle down, and all of this would be forgotten. Steve wasn’t a fairy. It’d just been so long since he’d had a date - these damn girls in New York don’t recognize a good thing when it’s staring them in the face - that he’d given up hope of finding a girl. Bucky would fix that.

In my headcanon, Steve sets up other divergent timelines, and then hunkers down to wait, because he cares about the people in this timeline, too.

[potofsoup2]

Thinking about this some more -- In all the other timelines that Steve may start, Steve would be the one to save Bucky. But this is the timeline where Bucky chose to break his conditioning and save Steve, which makes this Bucky all the more precious. Maybe that's worth 50-70 years of careful stewardship of this timeline.

Steve really should have had Sam and Bucky at his side

I really wished that Steve wasn’t faking it so hard in the opening scene.

Endgame thoughts

I was impressed by Infinity War and went in with high hopes. Specifically, the two things that I loved about Infinity War was (a) how well it worked the theme of “saving your other half vs. saving the other half of the universe”, and (b) all the great character interaction moments that are only possible in a large cross-story movie like this.As a result, I was disappointed on both of those counts.

It should have been a movie about coping with loss and rebuilding your family.  It was not that.
