Before the beginning! (please) ;)

angsty, horrible, foster kid AU:

“ She was already Skye by the time she met him, and he curled his lip derisively when she said it. Asked her what her real name was. (But later, on the roof beneath the stars as the hot Summer winds rolled by, he whispered that it was beautiful.) ”

ask me about my wips

My personal favourite is how after cutting off the head of shield in S1, they have 2 heads taking his place in S2 AND NEVER NOTICE THE HYDRA PARALLELS. Like, that shit wasn't even subtle. :P

Haha, oh man, I must admit I never noticed it either but it’s glorious. Or rather, it could have been; all these parallels and all the irony would have been brilliant, had it only been intentional.

captainsummerday replied to your post:Oooooooh! Fanfic meme! Awesome. 11 & 15,please!

Love it! Zombie Apocalypse fics are totally my RL wheelhouse right now. ;)

I’m hoping I can actually finish this one, it’s something I’ve been thinking about wanting to write for awhile, but the idea has changed a lot throughout my various stages of plotting. But hopefully I can turn it into an actual story.

(Also, I miss you. How are you? When will you have enough free time to waste time on this site again? And where is my biker smut?)

Oooooooh! Fanfic meme! Awesome. 11 & 15,please!

11: What’s a fanfic idea you haven’t done yet?So, I have a bunch of docs of AU ideas and headcanons and random paragraphs here and there. But of ideas I like but have not actually done anything with yet? I have a weird desire to write bantery skyeward in college/dorm wars. I don't know how well I could manage it, and there is also the problem of keeping it in character with such a different setting, plus keeping it unique from the already awesome college AU that there is for this couple. (Also, after the Brett and Luke interviews at Wondercon, I have a strange and strong urge to write Ward and Lincoln brotp)

15: Give us a snippet of something from your WiPs!And okay, so maybe her crazy prepared former Marine ex-boyfriend had made her memorize a list of places they would use as potential rendezvous points in case of some kind of national disaster event. (She’s pretty sure he was thinking something more along the lines of a terrorist attack, but zombie apocalypse fits the bill.) That doesn’t mean she came here specifically looking for him.

OMG! That picset is awesome! Everything, the choice of images, the colouring is so perfect for how I pictured the world of the story in my head. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I did a giddy shimmy round my living room when I saw it. ;) I love it.

I’m so glad you like it! I seriously obsessed for way too long about the colouring (and trying to find the perfect looking caramel frappucino) so I am really happy that you’re happy with it :)

Thank you so much for writing awesome stories for the rest of us.

Switching it Off (and turning it on again) by @captainsummerday​

Skye loves her job at Shield Consulting. It's seriously awesome. Except for one thing...

Dealing with Tech Support.

Office AU in which Grant makes a bad first impression.

Hey, just wanted to say congrats on finishing your first original piece and having the guts to try and get it published. You totally have my vote. Your skill with understanding the nuances of a character and letting that drive your narratives is too often missing from my (zero)guilty pleasure smutty romance books. I still rec 'Timeless' to people who want to understand why I ship Klaroline. I've got my fingers crossed for you. ;)

I try to have a little substance in otherwise super trope-y romance stories, so glad to know that I’m getting that across :) Thanks so much for the support!!

Fic Writer Appreciation (Multi-Fandom Edition)

I’m a shameless multi-fandom person, so I can’t just recommend fics in a single fandom. I’ll try to label the fandoms as best I can though just in case. 

captainsummerday: One of the resident queens of my heart and soul (and internet soul sister), who writes lovely, hilarious, and just in general epic Grant Ward/Skyeward (Agents of SHIELD) fics. And her vids... Oh. My. Stars. And. (Nonexistent). Garters. Cap is one of the reasons I haven’t left AOS fandom entirely, so seriously just check her out if that is one of your flavors. 

kayleepetey: One of my oldest friends online and the person that drags me/gets dragged into about every fandom we can find. We started out in OUaT together and have migrated through Agents of SHIELD and Arrow/Flash together. I am biased as her beta (and her mine) but her stuff is awesome and I cannot recommend it enough. 

vesperass-anuna: The great and powerful mama dragon of Agents of SHIELD. This woman writes some of the best Grant Ward/Skyeward fics around. Seriously. 

dust2dust34: Actual fic goddess Bre is a gift to Arrow fandom. Sexy, interesting, feels-inducing, and just generally brilliant Olicity--and one of my favorite Bratva AUs--are all in her epic wheelhouse. 

yespleasehawkeye: Relatively new to Arrow and Olicity, but DAMN what an entrance. Feels, fluff, sexy sexy, and even all three in perfect measure. You will regret nothing. 

seetheskyaboveus: Another gift to Arrow fandom with her lovely Olicity AUs. Check the writer out and even give her a hug, she deserves it. 

supersillyanddorky06: One of the most prolific and inventive writers in Arrow/Olicity fandom. Like wow...do you sleep? Or have you surpassed the mortal plane of existence because your brain is that inventive? I’m legitimately curious. So many amazing AUs. Epic Bratva AUs, Al-Sah-Him AUs, and just in general the most passionate treatment of the Olicity relationship around. 

writewithurheart: I cannot say enough about the “Once More (from the Top)”/”Do I Look Like a Barista to You?” Olicity fics or “The Mark I Bear.” Seriously. You made my brain short-circuit with sheer awesome. 

so-caffeinated: Again, a queen of the Olicity AU. Her Firefly/Arrow AU is a gift to mankind, and her “Stop the Presses” verse is literal perfection. You make my brain melt with sheer awesome. 

thatmasquedgirl: Another member of Arrow fandom who I am legitimately concerned about if they sleep or not from sheer numbers of awesome and varied fics. Literally, just look her up and spend like a week or a month reading her, it’s time well spent. 

sarcasticfina: This woman has made me cry. Multiple times. And yet I read her fics again. And again. And I adore them. Such good Olicity. Reading in bed or a soft place (with tissues and/or chocolate nearby) is essential. 

sailorslayer3641: Oooh chile... An Olicity writer that shares my passion for N’awlins... What do you think would happen but me falling stupidly in love? Steamy, sexy, and Southern flair all over the place. Must reads. 

melsanfo: The Olicity “Masquerade” AU is ruling my life at the moment. Such an interesting Vampire AU. 

I know I’m not hitting all the awesome writers out there, and I am so sorry if I didn’t mention you but have expressed my love in either likes or kudos elsewhere. I am pressed for time to just write this bit of admiration. But I wanted to throw some love at the amazing writers out there that have legitimately made my experience in fandoms something incredible. 

Never stop writing, I beg of you. Your minds are beautiful and I thank you for sharing them with us.
