loudlyawesome replied to your post “Theses I have read today: Rethinking the Monomyth: Tamora Pierce’s...”

Hey could you please link to the Tamora Pierce Thesis? I grew up loving all of her novels and I'm super keen to read a thesis centered around her work :)

I’m really sorry - I don’t think it’s online anywhere (or even been “published”) I only had access to it because it was written by a past student at my uni, and the hardcopy was thrown into the pool of past theses for us to browse :(

I feel a bit too uncomfortable to photo or scan every page and distribute it myself, but here are some articles that may be of interest:

Decolonizing Childhood: Coming of Age in Tamora Pierce’s Fantastic Empire - Sarah F Sahn

Real women aren't shiny (or plastic): the adolescent female body in YA fantasy - Leah Phillips

Cross-dressing as transvestism in children's literature: an analysis of a 'gender-performative' model - Victoria Flanagan

Google will throw up a bunch of different sites, most of which hide the full text behind a paywall, but hopefully it gives you enough of an idea of whether any are worth reading? And if you have any institutional access you may be able to read them via that.

Also, Tamora Pierce is the best - feel free to come yell about her in my inbox anytime :D

Bucky Mini Fest Pinch-Hit Masterpost

So, the Bucky Mini Fest is done, the dolls are on their way, but I felt bad that I didn't get to fill the last dozen prompts or so.

Many people have suggested they'd like to see the prompts, and maybe take one home for their very own, so I'm posting them here. If you end up writing for one of them, send me a link and I'll add it to this "pinch hit masterpost" so that people can check back to this post to see if new fics have gone up.

Thanks to everyone who sent in prompts -- I'm so sorry I didn't get to fill them all!

(These are not necessarily in the order in which I received them...)

marvelandbbcgeek: Bucky and Steve finding out about the actions of America during the recent wars (like the Vietnam war)

bookworm213: Can I request homeless!bucky wandering the streets of NY trying to remember post-WS? Has he remembered anything? Can he take care of himself without his handlers? Those questions have been eating me alive recently.

@citrusandbergamot: Bucky on a beach at sunset I can't tell you how much I wanted this to be Omaha Beach during Normandy. :D

@loudlyawesome: - FILLED! I would like to request Bucky and Clint in a blanket fort taking pot shots at the other Avengers with paperclips, or some other harmless projectile.

@tirecan: Either Bucky or Winter soldier arm malfunction or arm getting stuck somewhere.

@missbuster: Aw I’m sad I didn’t get a prompt in, ice always wanted a Winter Soldier software upgrade/arm disassociation story but I will save that for later.

@rsfcommonplace: Rats. I never dicover these things in time. I was gonna ask for Tony making new arm after new arm for Bucky (including the one with the secret decoder ring) because he can never design something just once...

Anonymous: steve and bucky, bros forever

Anonymous: anything bucky/tony/steve? angst. fluff. smut. anything that you desire

Anonymous: bucky and dystopian ya novels (...special request for invitation to the game) Oh man Anon it kills me that this one came in after the cap. Some Invitation To The Game fan should pick this one up!

Anonymous: Bucky/Natasha, post tws, Bucky finds Natasha in Chicago because he kinda remembers her and it's where she's run to ground in her road trip of self discovery Yaaaay Chicago! Anonymous: could you possibly maybe for the bucky love-a-thon do Bucky learning a bit of sign language from Clint, like preferably Bucky trying to make him feel better without being sappy about it by saying he wants to be able to talk shit about Steve and/or Tony without them knowing? maybe? and like a bit of bonding

Anonymous: The cliche Bucky gets a three legged pet story. Come on you know you want to. DOES TONY BUILD HIS PET A BIONIC ARM I MUST KNOW.

Plus here's a bonus prompt from me:

Discuss.

loudlyawesome replied to your post:OH GUYS. I bought a purple and black and grey...

Would you mind providing a link to where you got this shirt? I have a friend who’s ace and I think she’d really like a shirt like that too.

Ahhhhh I totally would, but I didn't buy it online, I bought it at this store in my town. Let me... hold on.

Okay, the brand is called "Clientele". Made in Canada, apparently. I bought it at a store called Fields. It doesn't seem to be a brand that really you can get online :( It was just a random bargain shirt in the plus-size section.

I FEEL SO BAD NOW.
