Happy Femslash February!  The goal is to create at least two fanworks with wlw content during the month of February, and for extra credit, because February is black history month, to have wlw content featuring black women.

I didn't think I would be able to do two original works in one month, and I didn't know about the black history aspect until about five minutes ago, so for my first post, I offer a selection of wlw fanfic recs:

Theme 1: Domestic Fluff

Living Arrangements  by [personal profile] netgirl_y2k , T (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). We’re the last people to realize we’re married.

After the Applause  by [community profile] tartanfics , T (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). Angie doesn't have anyone waiting for her out in the audience. She didn't get to tell Peggy she finally got a part in a show; Peggy wasn't there to tell. She ran lines with Sarah from 4A. There's been not a word from Peggy, nothing, after Angie went to all the trouble of calling up her family and finding Peggy a way out of the city.

The Spy Always Gets the Girl  by perpetfic, T (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). Peggy and Angie settle into life in that huge, ridiculous house.

Everybody Here is Watching You (Cause You Feel Like Home)  by [personal profile] lady_ragnell , G (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). Angie gets a role in the Captain America picture.

rather useless  by scriptmanip, G (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). Peggy has very clearly not thought this through.

Theme 2: Action and Adventure

back in line for love again and just call my name, i’ll be there in a hurry  by [personal profile] defcontwo , G and M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes, rule 63). But in the end, what matters is this: Stella Rogers walked out of that camp in Azzano a chorus girl and walked back into it a war hero.

Everybody Hit The Compound  by [personal profile] ballantine, Not Rated (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). The cast of Agent Carter do M.A.S.H.

and you bring me home  by [community profile] steveandbucky , T (Peggy Carter/Angie Martinelli). Whatever the Peggy!Cap, Cartinelli version of shrunkyclunks is, that’s what this is.

A Minor Distraction  by [personal profile] brilligspoons , T (Peggy Carter/Natasha Romanoff). Rumors about an organization experimenting with the super soldier serum bring Peggy to Russia, where she meets a young factory worker who may be more than she seems.

fight like girls for our place at the table  by [personal profile] napricot , E (Sharon Carter/Natasha Romanoff). I know I’ve recced this one before but it’s a really outstanding example in its field. Sharon and Natasha come together, during and after the events of CA:TWS.

Theme 3: Young Love

baby, we’ve got new love  by sevensevan, T (Michelle Jones/Shuri). MJ and Shuri have crushes on each other; Peter just wants to help.

you can’t dance and stay uptight  by [personal profile] gsparkle , T (Kate Bishop/America Chavez). We were dancing but all of a sudden it’s a slow song and we’re standing here awkwardly staring at each other

there’s a girl who’s close to me  by [personal profile] gsparkle , T (Mantis/Nebula). Nebula may not have been Thanos’ smartest daughter, or strongest, but the one thing she’s always had over Gamora is the hardness of her heart.  Bugborg is such a cute ship, I was really surprised there wasn't more of it.

with the blue mascara on  by [personal profile] heliantheae , M (Kate Bishop/America Chavez). Kate meets a cute girl at the gym. Kate meets a woman with glowing eyes in an alley. These two things probably aren’t related.


MCU Fanfic Recs for January 11, 2019.

Theme 1: Of Course It's Still Christmas!

lights at two dollars a strand  by [personal profile] legete , T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve and Bucky don’t mean to decorate for Christmas. It just kind of happens.

o holy  by [personal profile] orange_crushed , G (Steve Rogers & Bucky Barnes). Steve Rogers: Kind of a Shitty Angel.

’Twas the Night Before Christmas  by [personal profile] coffeejunkii , T (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). Phil and Clint stay up late to wait for Santa

The Anti-Christmas Season  by [personal profile] tamnation , T (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). Clint and Phil unite in their dislike for Christmas and discover feelings for each other along the way

Theme 2: Alien Invasions and Other Horros

marvellous radio, wonderful radio  by [personal profile] brideofquiet , E (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). It’s kind of hard to keep having sex when there’s an alien invasion occurring.

(don’t pay no mind to) the demons they fill you with fear  by [personal profile] bendingwind , T (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). Pacific Rim AU: Clint makes his way out to the coasts, building walls with other assholes who’ve given up hope.

What do you mean we left Clint on Mars?  by sara_holmes, T (Bucky Barnes/Clint Barton; Steve Rogers/Tony Stark). The Martian AU.  (Hey, humans going to Mars totally counts as an alien invasion!)

what is hidden in the snow comes forth in the thaw  by [personal profile] noncorporealform , T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). First, I wanted to write Dyatlov Pass fic. Then I read this and realized there was no way I could do it better than it had already been done.

Theme 3: Found Families and Happy Endings

I’ve Been Careless With a Delicate Man  by [personal profile] paraxdisepink , M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve lets SHIELD think he and Bucky were boyfriends so they’ll let him see the Winter Soldier in medical.

family means no one gets left behind or forgotten  by cosmicocean, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). The one where Steve adopts a whole bunch of LGBT+ teens.

an exceedingly mutually understood and well coordinated time  by [personal profile] prim_the_amazing , M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes/Sam Wilson/Natasha Romanoff). It’s about a week into ‘Sam and Steve’s Grand Road Trip Adventure To Hunt Down and Shoot A Net At Captain America’s Murder Ex and Drag Him Back Into a Loving Relationship Kicking and Shrieking’ that the telepathic stirrings between them actually start to register for Sam.

Theme 4: These Ones Are Serious

fight like girls for our place at the table  by [personal profile] napricot , E (Sharon Carter/Natasha Romanoff, background Stucky). Unenviable security details, awkward dinner parties, and double dating. Wait, does raiding Hydra bunkers count as a date? Two underdeveloped canon characters get some real development and a chance to shine.

seasons change (but people don’t)  by ftmsteverogers, E (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky buys Steve too-tight undershirts and ace bandages to flatten down any amorphous femininity beneath his shirt.  He cuts off Steve's pigtails over the bathroom sink, slicks back his blond hair with pomade.

Except it Abide in the Vine  by [personal profile] spitandvinegar , M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson, Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes/Sam Wilson, various others). Sam Wilson, and a whole bunch of Buckys and Steves.




Friday, December 7, 2018.  Various ships, newer and older works.  Cross posted from my tumblr , which I won't be updating much in future.

The Nature of Dust  by inkvoices, M (Clint Barton/Natasha Romanoff). This is not normally a main pairing I’d read for its own sake, but I was really drawn to the premise - Dustbowl AU, travelling circus, dark/supernatural elements.

This Bitter Earth  by CloudAtlas, T (Clint Barton/Natasha Romanoff). The previous fic (The Nature of Dust) led me directly to this one. Clint and Natasha at the end of the world, climate change dystopia.

too many fish in the sea by mmtion, T (Steve Rogers/Tony Stark). There’s a negative space wedgie, and then Steve has his hands full with multiple alternate Tonys, including Cowboy Tony, Super Villain Tony, Drag Queen Tony, and, of course, heavily pregnant and foul-mouthed Tony.

Form 42-D/85 - Form 42-D/86 by raiining, M (Phil Coulson/Clint Barton). Marriages entered into for the purpose of active operations will be respected by S.H.I.E.L.D. and all other national and international government agencies until such time as Form 42-D/86 is filed at the completion of said operations. So what if Clint never bothered to file form 42-D/86, and never got around to asking Phil if he had filed it?

Robot Trip by copperbadge, T (Tony Stark/Pepper Potts, Tony Stark & Steve Rogers). Tony is driving from Malibu to Manhattan with a robot in the back seat and Captain America riding escort at Pepper's behest. What could possibly go wrong?

To a few, it'll be grief; To the law, a relief; But it's death for Bonnie and Clyde by haipollai, not rated but I’d call it T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes; Clint Barton/Bobbi Morse). The best post-CACW fic written pre-CACW that I have yet to read.

The Naked Gun by sirona, M (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). Phil thinks with possibly a bit too much smugness that they certainly hadn’t expected to encounter a denuded guy holding a gun and shooting straight. “Villains these days,” he mutters disappointedly.

Men do not live only by fighting evils by acaramelmacchiato, G (no pairing). Sharon Carter’s first year with SHIELD involves a lot of laundry and lying. Plus various darkly comedic adventures of the Winter Soldier in Soviet Russia: And we shall joyfully tell one another everything that has happened, T (no pairing); But some of us are looking at the stars, M (Winter Soldier/Yuri Gagarin); Time is what keeps the light from reaching us, T (Winter Soldier/Steve Rogers; Steve Rogers/Peggy Carter); and Repetition of Position, G (Winter Soldier & Natasha Romanoff).

do you have room by haipollai, author didn’t assign a rating but I’d call it T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Post-Winter Soldier Road Trip of Recovery.

The Last Two in a Long, Long Line  by visiblemarket, T (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). "I thought we'd be done with all this." Clint can practically hear the way his eyes are crinkling, that slight, sweet smirk of his. It's distracting even when Clint can't see it. "Huh?" "Patching you up in the middle of the night. Now that I'm not your handler anymore."

almost heaven  by mcwho, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). The house is covered in Halloween decorations, top to bottom. Bucky is what some might call a festivity whore. By ‘some’, he mainly means Sam. Bucky prefers to think of himself as enthusiastic. If there’s an occasion coming up, and stores are selling decorations to commemorate it, well, a thorough celebration is only respectful.

love is blind (steve and bucky are just dumb)  by talkplaylove and hawkguyz, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve and Bucky are oblivious idiots who don’t know yet that they are dating each other.
