Sorry this took me 500 years, Rosie, I just wanted to wait until I could actually focus :'D
This is not only extremely sweet (esp. from you of all people for REAL), but it definitely gave me some pause in terms of favorites - I love almost everything I write, but some things definitely have more of my heart in them than others
I'd say rn the thing I think has my heart bc it has the most "me" in it is @morvantmortuary bc it's all original, but if we're talking my fics here -- (minors dni for all of these lmao)
from sokovia with love - fic of my heart that I'm coming back to as soon as I can get the Morvant family to a better place narratively lmao. zemo is a frustrating sneaky motherfucker that I'm still madly in love with this many months later, and this has been a really fun way for me to indulge in all the spy sort of tropes that I never get to work into a lot of my regular stuff. this has also been - in a weird way - a love letter to myself, to convince myself everything's going to be okay when my closest IRL friends move away next year to find work and I'm still finishing my doctorate :'D
the urges we can't admit - my little runaway oneshot!! it really was going to be a one-and-done kind of deal, but so many people have been so nice about it, I wound up reverse-building a whole plot to go with it. I am also coming back to this one sometime soon, though it takes me a little longer than FSWL bc there's so much more about it I don't know, whereas the former is basically entirely planned. it is coming though, I swear :'D
delight in your sweetness - a oneshot set in the world of FSWL that I wrote, IIRC, before I even posted the first chapter for Dibs's Body Positivity Challenge. this one was a love letter to all the readers out there who want to imagine themselves going on these wild adventures with their faves, but maybe get a little too stuck in their head to fully participate sometimes. I see you, I feel you, we're still hot as hell so just go for it friends <3
we'll get away with everything - a fic I wrote for my birthday week that's Urges!Laszlo and Reader set twenty years in the future, oddly enough partially inspired by a documentary on Ellis Island I watched with my mom the same week. this one is super dear to me bc it's just such a huge comfort thing - it's a bit bombastic, with the pantsing an asshole via swordplay, but I love the idea of Reader and Las being ridiculously in love with each other decades later while adapting to respect each other's changes. It's also v much influenced by my belief that not only should two people madly in love have amazing physical chemistry, there should definitely be lots of laughing in between.
the last spot really is a tie between covetousness and look alive, sunshine. covetousness was my first softdark fic ever, and my first time really playing with a Reader who was as dark and possessive and vengeful as Zemo was. I'm a secret sucker for jealousy in fics, especially the ones where the love interest gets clingy and possessive of the reader. But one of the big things in my Zemo fics is wanting the Reader to feel like his equal, not just his possession, so I wanted them to be just as clingy and possessive - or at least, encouraging him when he is. it was a lot of fun to write, and while the shitty grad student dude is based on a couple different dudes I know, he's luckily not something I've experienced IRL lmao. look alive, sunshine is my alienist!grad student AU, because I need somewhere to work out my angst related to my doctoral program, and who better to project that on than a Victorian-era Alienist lmao. There is actually a second part to this one in the works, from a few months ago when I needed a place to offload my work anxiety! it will probably be up... at some point. :'D
bonus mention goes to as you wish - I'm kinda burnt out on writing loki after the biphobic misogynistic shitshow that was the show fandom (which is a shame, as he was my favorite marvel character since the first thor came out when I was in college), but this one was a lot of fun and super sweet to write, and I definitely enjoy it. maybe in a while once things have died down I'll come back to him, but not anytime soon lmao.
this was a lot of fun, babe - I had a blast re-reading a lot of these for the first time in a while as I picked them! thanks for being kind enough to think of me! <3 <3 <3
