My media this week (3-9 Sep 2023)

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

😊 What's Left of Kisses (What's Left of Kisses #1) (Draco_sollicitus) - 86K, shrunkyclunks with Cap!Steve & mild-mannered history teacher Bucky (who's got some past trauma & secrets even he doesn't know about)

😊 It Always Finds A Way (What's Left of Kisses #2) (Draco_sollicitus) - 90K, shrunkyclunks, sequel to above - lots of angst and action and evil government scientists as Bucky tries to adjust to being superpowered (imo doesn't quite stick the landing but still an enjoyable fic)

😊 hic sunt dracones (robotguts) - 45K, steddie, cute af, low angst modern AU where eddie's a professional DM Steve hires for the group of kids he babysits

💖💖 +187K of shorter fic so shout out to these I really loved 💖💖

[podfic] Enfolding (jennisaisquoi (mcmuffins)) - Band Sinister [KJ Charles]: Corvin/Amanda /David, 3K - extremely delightful story, excellently done podfic

Second Nature (MoreThanSlightly (cadignan)) - Ted Lasso: Keeley/Roy/Jamie, 27K - Second Nature 'verse #1 - I am feral over this fic - gender/body swap with lots of gender fuckery and all sorts of goodness. Really felt like the author nailed the character voices. Loved loved loved it!

Three Ways to Saturday (MoreThanSlightly (cadignan)) - Ted Lasso: Keeley/Roy/Jamie, 1K - Second Nature 'verse #2 - outsider (Beard's) POV of the preceding fic - also stellar character voice, fun to see the different POV

Racism and misogynoir are so apparent in fandom, especially when it comes to shipping because why is it when a white male, sometimes female but I see it more with the former, character is on screen with a love interest, particularly woc, especially if they're black, and even with all the emotional scenes or just moments where they look at one another in ways different from the rest, it's met with "No, they aren't dating/the show is not going to put them together" but let the other love interest be white as well and suddenly it all makes sense? Heck, the examples I mentioned above don't even have to exist between the latter for some to STILL go and believe this rhetoric (eg. some Jace and Helaena shippers because, even if these two only interacted with a dance but yet we see Baela console Jace, after he seeks her out, apparently it's to far fetched to believe that Jacela could be a thing?!)

Sometimes it could be a headcanon that, largely, would make sense (and oftentimes was birth due to lack of respect that the poc characters could have been given by the writers *cough* TVD *cough*), and yet you'd still have people dismissing it left and right and spewing hate. At a HEADCANON! And I'm not saying that just because the other person in the ship is poc that you have to ship them, I'm not, but it's very apparent to many poc fans in fandom that unless the characters are swapping spit and doing the nasty, the possibility of them being viewed in any romantic lens feels too much of stretch even though their white counterparts don't have to jump through the same loops.

of all the star wars movies, which of them do y'all 1) enjoy the most 2) consider the best quality and 3) think you've rewatched the most. add your answers in the reblogs or replies, i'm genuinely curious how much of an overlap there is within everyone's three answers. mine don't overlap at all! they're revenge of the sith, empire strikes back, and the force awakens :^)

Adventure time fans when you enjoyed the Fionna and Cake finale and don't want their miserable unnecessary nitpicky opinions on a silly happy cartoon ruining ur joy and love for the show:
