Saturday morning fic rec:

Author’s summary:

When the Valkyrie hits the water, Steve doesn’t die. Instead, he crawls out of the wreckage and finds himself in an amazing, confusing land that could be the alternate world of Nowhere—or it could be his dreams. And he gradually realizes he’s not the only one. Steve doesn’t know if he’s even alive, but he’s certain of this: Bucky’s there with him, sharing his dreams, and outside their idyllic world, he’s suffering. Something is terribly wrong. Steve has to find Bucky—if he can. But how does he do that when he awakens in a new century where he feels like he’s all alone?

My notes:

I really like how the dreamsharing and its consequences are worked in among the MCU canon, how Steve finds it hard to trust those around himself after he wakes up with what he knows about Bucky, and how it’s resolved. Featuring absolutely beautiful art as well.

I, The Paradox

A collaboration for the Stucky Big Bang 2017.

Fic rating: Explicit Word Count: 80k Relationships: Steve/Bucky(x2), Bucky(x2) Tags:  Time Travel Shenanigans, Angst, Threesome, Self-cest, Character Study, Canon-Typical Violence, Canon Divergence, Slow Burn, Blow Jobs, Anal Sex

Sharing a life with a recovering Winter Soldier means never quite escaping what Steve sees as his biggest failure. When one of Tony’s machines functions differently than advertised, Steve is given an unexpected opportunity to change the past. He’s spent so much time mapping out all the ways he could have saved Bucky from falling, but in the moment, he never stops to consider whether or not he should.

Actions have consequences, and meddling with time has more drastic ones than most. Steve wakes with two divergent timelines in his head, and two very different versions of Bucky in his bed. With the machine broken, and no idea whether their situation is permanent, this new arrangement promises to be an adjustment for all three of them. Only, that may not be the worst of their problems...

For the ask meme: 50, 80, 82, 86!

50: what was the last text you sent?

80: what is your biggest pet peeve? 

Person is misusing or mispronouncing a word (not a dialectial thing, just straight up fucking wrong). Person has been corrected. Person belligerently refuses to stop misusing/mispronouncing it, even after acknowledging that they’re doing it wrong.

82: favorite ice cream flavor? 

If I could ever find a place that does lemon lavender, that will be it. Till then, it’s a toss-up between white chocolate raspberry and Häagen-Dazs crème brulée.

86: what is your phone background?

a dude yelling a fireball at a black hole from a mountaintop

(don’t judge me for having Reddit on there, it’s just for the one subreddit)

rohkeutta replied to your post “rohkeutta replied to your post “redbubble update” ...”

I'm kinda super curious to see what happens since I ordered the slav squat sticker earlier today with some other stuff (DAISYPUFF POUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and i'm interested to see if they will actually produce my order fully or give me a refund (or if I need to start yelling on the internet about my lost 2.79 euros)

riakomai replied to your post “redbubble update”

But yeah, I think if you avoid the more popular words like marvel, captain america, avengers etc, you should be (somewhat) safe? If I put stuff on soc6 it actually prevents me from labeling a work as "captain america" in title or tags due to copy right stuffs before I even publish a thing

YEAH I’M CURIOUS TOO bc i bought myself my own rhodey sticker yesterday and it got pulled today SO UH, GUESS WE’LL SEE?? either way the Slav Squat will return - just looking a little different!! 

but yeah, i think as long as i avoid the copyright guidelines - which seem to be actually very narrow and specific and pertain to strict likenesses + actually calling it marvel stuff, i think - then i should be ok!

Could it be possible to have the sign up links somewhere visible on the links bar or faq? I had some issues trying to find them. Thank you!

I’ll set it up right now!

What are some of your favorite Stucky-related works that you’ve done?

Merfolk AU: This piece is based on a dream I had, that sort of started to live its own life, and then ended up as an artwork. The concept has evolved into a whole AU and I have plans of drawing more art from this world.

Both of the fics I did art for on the Stucky Big Bang were wonderful and I had a lot of fun working along with the authors! I am still very happy with how these turned out and am glad to have taken part:

Aggressive Parkour:

This is not a Stucky piece, but it does feature Bucky being badass! And it´s to this day one of my favorite works I´ve done.

What do you most love about Stucky/the Stucky fandom?

This is the first time I have been actively involved in fandom, since so far I´ve mostly been a bystander. I first dove in at the Stucky Big Bang last summer, and had a blast with it. And during my time in this fandom I have met such lovely people, who have welcomed me into their circle. Its fantastic to have talented creators, both writers and artists, to talk and share ideas with!

When was the moment that you shipped it?

It was definitely TWS. That movie is still one of my favorite marvel movies, and yeah I´m still crying over Bucky Barnes. So that was the movie that started my love for Stucky and it has been slowly evolving into my number one ship, and well, here we are.

Ria will have new artwork and fic illustrations appearing in NOT WITHOUT YOU ★ A STUCKY ANTHOLOGY.
