Fell back into my Dishonored hyperfixation (currently replaying all the games lol) your Fanfics are amazing I love them all. You also got me into the Thomas/Geoff ship. Help 😂
(Do you plan on continuing "Errant Mind, Wandering Gaze" ? Just wondering.)
Thank you for all the fanarts/Fanfics on this beautiful series I love it all and will probably scroll through your entire blog for content because you reblogged and made amazing stuff and I am starved for more content. XDD
I'm gonna stop my rant now have an amazing day/night depending on your timezone! Thank you for everything!
Ahhh thank you! I looked through all the posts you were liking and now I too am hit with nostalgia! Such a good game.
The greatest trick I ever pulled was dragging people into shipping Thomas/Geoff with me. =D
EMWG is something I really would like finished but unfortunately I think it falls into the same category of 'things I would like to finish' that includes an 11-year-old Marvel fic. I remember I was having trouble getting through the next chapter and debating if I could just skip it, but sadly it was stuff that really needed to be included but I just. Didn't wanna write.
I may eventually get back to it but in the meantime if you have any questions about the story I'd be willing to answer?
I don’t know the short-name for this pairing but, it’s;
Bucky + Steve + Tony = Relationship
Bucky & Clint & Natasha = Friendship
(well actually it’s more complex and deep than that but those words work).
Heed all the tags, but trust me on this one, it is a MUST READ. Even if you are not too comfortable with the tags*. I’d say that it is actually very very okay.
The plot is magnificently thought out, the writing and descriptions of feelings is absolutely beautiful, the character dynamics in relation to each other is breathtaking.
Introducing...!!!
The Trinity Universe - by cinaea, windsweptfic
First part - Trinity.
Second part - Volition.
This is a MUST READ fic. Honestly. READ IT. It’s the sort that sucks you into the universe and you forget you are currently in bed, it’s 4am and you’re not asleep coz you have been transported elsewhere.
* I’ll go in depth a bit to explain the tags (without spoilers), for those who feel wary to read this fic because of the tags. Because I think, it’s a pity if you don’t read this because of certain tags - since the main focus in the writing is more on emotions, trust, and character depth.
*In my opinion, most of the tags are there more for precautionary measure.
Some potential ‘red-light’ tags are; Dubious Consent, BDSM and Slavery - for Trinity. BDSM, Past Rape/Non-Con, Slavery and Dubious consent - for Volition.
For the record, there is No Sex Scene written at all in both the works mentioned above.
You would think there would be with those tags mentioned, but there are none. Sex is said to have happened as something that happened ‘off-screen’ or something that happened in the past. This is the same for the ‘Rape/Non-Con’ and the ‘Dubious Consent’ part which is tied in to the scene that involves the ‘Past Rape/Non-Con’.
As for the BDSM tag, it’s the universe setting of dynamics - of Dom’s and Sub’s and neutrals - which again, does not involve any sexual acts at all. It’s more of a trust and ‘headspace’ thing. There is use of the ‘voice’ concept popular in some D/S fics, but both Doms and Subs have a ‘voice’ which they can use if they decide to.
Slavery tag is quite typical, what with HYDRA involved and Bucky being held by HYDRA against his will. So that part is slavery yes, but not for long. There are some aspects of torture described during the ‘slavery’ part of the fic. Torture such as ‘electric shocks, degrading of a character, forcing a character to commit murder against their will’. - I think this is an expected thing to have in fics that involve Bucky and HYDRA. So, it’s business as usual.
Dubious Consent. - Everything that happens while in Slavery is dubious consent, since the character obviously does not want to be enslaved. There is no sexual act between the main characters that includes dubious consent. Perhaps the dubious consent is because there’s matters like ‘trust’ being discussed and conflicting feelings by the characters. But it is not sexual. As stated above, I think the tag is more for that scene on ‘past-rape/non-con’, which was only written as a thing that happened in the past. With maybe only two (or three) sentences that was anything remotely close to a description of the act.
Okay, I think that covers it. Please note this is all just in my opinion/ understanding of things. If you are a person who has triggers or squicks, then ultimately it is a decision for yourself if you’d like to read or not.
Otherwise. I’d say this is too damn good a fic to just let pass if you are only slightly uncertain because of the tags. Give it a go ;)
For the person looking for Actor AUs, I highly recommend the hilarious "America’s (Daytime) Sweethearts" by samanthahirr (/works/7495719), which features Stucky acting out the crackiest soap opera cliches imaginable.
thanks!
America’s (Daytime) Sweethearts by AlnaTheRhyperographer, samanthahirr
After years of romance arcs with women, soap opera actor Steve finally lands his first gay-romance storyline, starring opposite daytime heartthrob Bucky Barnes. Their return-from-the-dead/amnesia/fireman/vigilante plot looks like a guaranteed ratings success; all Steve has to do is control his crush and keep things professional with Bucky.
Bucky’s casual flirting makes things harder…in all the right ways.

Got my bingo card, and I am ready to start inflicting some pain. :D
Looking for prompts from current and a couple old fandoms, pairings or individuals:
Dishonored - Corvo/Daud, Thomas/Geoff, open to p much anything else but those pairings/characters tend to get my immediate attention
Overwatch: Reaper/76 where it isn’t one whumping the other
Pacific Rim: Herc/Stacker
MCU: Steve/Bucky
Shadowhunters: Alec/Magnus
If you wanna just prompt a square and a name or something, that’s cool; if you wanna give an idea with it that’d be fab too. Like ‘Dishonored - Connor - Dislocated Joint - he’s one of the ones caught by the Overseers during the Surge’.
Decided to put up a list of what’s been taken and with what, and put some links in for the more obscure tropes. So if you requested something and it didn’t get picked, feel free to go for another square!
Thwarted Escape: Dishonored - Thomas/Geoff
Pinned Down By Wreckage - Overwatch: Reaper/76
Forced to Watch - Shadowhunters: Alec/Magnus
Hiding an Injury - Dishonored: Corvo/Daud
