[ironstrange-is-the-endgame]

Rec me some good IronStrange fic, please! I’ve read “From the Top” and “Whatever Souls and Made From” so far.

Ok, I’m a mess doing this cause I never bookmark anything so all I can give to you are a few longish fic I’ve been reading recently/I’m reading now. The two you mention are totally faves of mine, too 😂 (just read the tags before starting to read the fic because I usually avoid sad/angst endings but I’ve no problem whatsoever about other difficult themes/triggers)

Obstacles and Opportunities by Shortsnout

What if the Storm Ends, and I Don't See You? by twenty3

Stronger than a vampire trance by Radi_skull320

For a Love Eternal by RoseAmaranth

Before you Leave (You Must Know You’re Beloved) by lgbtztark

@notjustamumj @visionarygalaxy (particularly Helping Hand, which is PhDicks if this is your OT3 and had a wonderful insigh on the characters’ psychology) and @amethyst-noir fics, all of them are pearls and if you are in the fandom you should totally read their works

Casanova, Rosier, Rian

Oh crap uhm.

Marry: Rian. That lady is going places, plus she taught casanova all he knew.

Fuck: Casanova. Because his name was top of the dick size list. =P But also, he tries so hard and that’s gonna translate well in bed.

Kill: Rosier. I realize this is probably an unexpected answer, or unpopular, but like, a)he’s the one most likely to survive if I did try.

Make me FMK 3 three characters!

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Why does everyone seem to hate S4 and Mary so much? I'm not looking to bash, just understand. Mind you, I'm new to Johnlock, but I've been a fan of the show since just before S3 came out. Sherlock always seemed to like Mary and care for her if only because John did. Yes, he seemed sad that things had to change between him and John, but he was willing to accept whatever relationship John was willing to give. I thought S4 added some interesting layers to the mythos of the show as well.

Hey Lovely *hugs*

Firstly, I just want to say, you’re completely allowed to like S4, and you’re completely allowed to like Mary and read the show differently than me and others. Secondly, BECAUSE I read S4 differently than “face value” (ie. it’s fake and is actually a “blog” covering up the real events of the series, mostly the Garridebs moment), I can (probably grasp at straws and) appreciate the layers that (may be) are present in the series, but that still doesn’t make up for the fact that it’s really not that great of a series. I’ve essentially summed up in this post here the main problems with S4 that I had. (here also) (here also) (and a long but interesting discussion here).

Now, you’ve mentioned that you’re new to the series, so I GET having an attachment to the series that brought you into the show – my favourite series is S3 and it’s a hit-or-miss series amongst the fans – but you also have to take into account the Day One-ers, who have been with this show since 2010… SEVEN YEARS. To THEM, the show was taking a COMPLETELY different direction, even to those of us, like me, who joined in the S2 to 3 hiatus, the S3 to TAB hiatus, or the TAB to S4 hiatus. This show was a COMPLETELY different series. Without S5, the show is queerbaiting, and Gatiss has admitted as much to using homoeroticism to bring in an audience. This is why long-time watchers of the series are upset; because the narrative is COMPLETELY different from what was previously established, the rules of the Sherlock universe have changed just for shits and giggles, the characters are all WILDLY OOC, and essentially all previous events in the show are made moot and pointless with the introduction of the Eurus character… and think about it… the ENTIRE 7 year buildup was to – SURPRISE! – introduce a psychotic X-men sister who was behind everything and just wanted a hug all along??? That makes… no fucking sense in this universe. Maybe for Dr. Who or X-Files, but not this. It’s ridiculous. The central theme of the series was John and Sherlock’s relationship arc, and then suddenly it’s non-existent in S4. They destroyed John’s character, made a side character a primary character in Mary, and sidelined Sherlock in his own show. It was ridiculous. Plus, everything was just SO SLOPPY, that it doesn’t make any sense to a large chunk of us.

As for The Mary Problem™, the reason why people hate her character is not because of no-Johnlock, but because TPTB fridged her character to be a “misunderstood assassin with a heart of gold”, which makes NO FUCKING SENSE after the events of S3 and TAB. They’ve essentially established her as a villain for four episodes – a HUGE chunk of us WANTED her to go down in a blaze of glory and be a badass – but instead she’s suddenly forgiven for KILLING THE MAIN CHARACTER, BECOMING the main character in a back story THAT MADE NO SENSE, and she dies by suddenly defying the laws of physics and jumps in front of a bullet she couldn’t have possibly done, all while she’s still manipulating the characters with creepy-assed DVD’s. Somehow  us long-term viewers are supposed to buy this all and believe she’s a good person?? No. It makes no sense. Plus, her CONSTANTLY hovering around in TLD and having the LAST WORD in TFP, it was annoying as hell to many of us, and very much an insult to both John and Sherlock individually (basically establishing that OH NO THEY CAN’T SURVIVE WITHOUT MARY AT ALL) and as a couple, because OH NO THEY CAN’T POSSIBLY GET TOGETHER WITHOUT MARY’S GHOST TELLING THEM TO GET TOGETHER! Bollocks. Complete and utter bollocks. TAB was already establishing that John and Sherlock were ready to talk to each other, and for some reason S4 was like NOPE Y’ALL NEED MARY’S GHOST DVD TO TELL Y’ALL TO GET ON IT. Like no, thanks, you make no sense Mary.

I dedicated a LOT of time writing about Mary on this blog and why she’s not a good person, so you can read literally everything I’ve ever written about her villainy here on this post, and then you’ll understand why I am annoyed with what they did to her. She could have been great. Instead she’s not, and her presence in T6T was SO FUCKING ANNOYING and manipulative, and it was terrible. She was completely unnecessary in TLD and TFP. Her voiceover ruined what little Johnlock we had at the end of the episode.

Plus, her manipulation and gaslighting tactics hit a little bit TOO close to home for me, and I can’t see her as anything but emotionally abusive to both John and Sherlock. The only reason people DON’T see it, is because she’s a woman; LITERALLY the only reason.

Anyway, I’m not going to shame you for liking S4! You do you! I know plenty of people who like S4. I on the other hand can appreciate it for what it is, but I just CAN’T ignore the fallacies and inconsistencies in the series nor the actions and words of the cast and crew post-S4 to accept it as a “perfect” series. Perhaps there’s a long game plan, and I’m totally open to it. But as it stands right now, the series essentially ended with “Mary is the most important character in this show” and John and Sherlock are just bros being bros, and “everything that happened before? That doesn’t matter at all”. But I keep an open mind to all arguments, positive or negative, because all the opinions about the series are valid. 

Like I said up above there, it’s your “intro” series, so you’re going to feel some sentiment towards it, and that’s totally fine. *hugs* 

EDIT: I just realized that you JUST came into Johnlock, not that this was your intro series. Sorry about that misunderstanding. It’s still pertinent, I think, especially since I have been reading the subtext since S3 came out, and it’s why I’m passionate about Johnlock. <3

Marlowe, Artemis

Hey :D!Marlowe: I’m much more a behind the scenes kind of girl, I hate any kind of attention and will always be drawn to wherever I can be the most invisibleArtemis: this is hard, because I have super high standards for myself, but I am quite proud of how handy I am about the house. I redid my dining room last year (fixed cracks in the wall, repainted, varnished) and it looks brand new and like a pro did it (my family’s words, not mine) so I guess you could say I’m proud of doing a good job on house stuff

overlycaffeinatedwarmage replied to your post: I just saw a post post for a subscription for...

No, that’s the price after insurance took care of much of it. Back in 2001/2002 I was paying $40 a month for the pill. That was after insurance too.

...$40 a month... after insurance...

I knew it I was way worse in the US and yet I’m somehow still shocked. Shit. I know so many people my age who simply couldn’t afford that without forgoing living space, food, or other medicine. That’s just not okay.

Hello Tumblr! I made a short version of this, and now this is the extended version! I was inspired by some of @elisaphoenix13 ‘s FanFiction wherein Peter Parker makes frequent casual use of the ceiling as a floor. And also Levi (Cloak of Levitation) gets into some shenanigans at the end... Peter Parker (as most children do) thinks it’s gross when his parents kiss in front of him! lol Hope you enjoy!

**** Here is someone else’s FanArt by @robinhess that also inspired the extended version of my IronStrange video (I made up the cheesy dialogue below). Here is the link to the same drawings on robinhess’s blog):

Stephen and Tony: *intimate kissins*

Peter: *accidentally sees them while hanging upside down*

Stephen and Tony: *still completely oblivious to the world around them*

Peter: *cough* Ahem!

Stephen: ... *has a small heart attack*

Tony: ... *is amused that they’ve been caught and that Stephen had a small heart attack*

Stephen: *still struggling to gain some composure* Ahem-ahum-hem-hem-hm...

Tony: *looking back-and-forth at Peter and Stephen* Is this some kind of new language you’ve got going between you... or a code or something?!?

Stephen and Peter: 🤦🏻‍♂️🙄🤦🏽‍♂️🙄

Siren’s Song

It finally dropped yesterday.  What did everyone think??

@overlycaffeinatedwarmage here: I thought it was spectacular and confirmed a couple headcanons that I’d be carrying around for a bit.  One was a years long theory, one was a BtT theory.

@overlycaffeinatedwarmage replied to your post “How do you feel about Starker?”

I could have sworn Endgame started in 2018, because it picked up where Infinity War left off. Peter was 15 in SMHC (as quoted in the movie), so he was maybe 16 in IW.

For the timeline, I usually follow the one that can be found over there. And, yup, homecoming and Civil War are both set in 2016 and there are two years from CW and IW so he’s 17 there =)

[emberfaye]

Mircea, Claire, Gertie

Fuck: Claire because okay she’s a dragon mama and like that can be hawt ok

Marry: Gertie. She won’t accept anything less that perfect and that’s a good spouse right there. Better to have her on your side.

Kill: Mircea. He’s lived long enough and he can go off into the light and meet Elena. 

Make me FMK three characters

First Chapter up!

Finally got the first chapter up. It’s on AO3 here. I’m still not happy with this chapter.

And read here under the cut

                                                         Tuna Melt

It’s always the same routine every week. At a designated restaurant or a bar on the weekend, 2 people would order different things and reflect on their lives. More specifically, 2 very tired friends of the Sorcerer Supreme and Iron Man.

It started after Tony Stark and Stephen Strange became somewhat friendly acquaintances after the Infinity War. What started out as a weekly occurrence where both would snark at each other soon became a daily occurrence with each of them staring at each other longingly when they think the other person is unaware. And James Rhodes and Wong (like Beyonce) are sick of it. More importantly, they’re sick of hearing it from their idiotic best friends.

It became as a form of therapy as well as a tentative friendship for the 2 of them to bond over their pain of dealing with 2 geniuses but absolute morons.

Which is why Rhodey and Wong are in a small café having sandwiches while complaining about their best friends. Just about every conversation would start out with this sentence…

“What’d he do?”

“Made a screensaver of Stark’s butt on his phone.  I think the Cloak of Levitation helped take the picture. What yours do?”

“Got a full-sized poster of Strange topless hanging in his room. How he got a picture, I don’t want to know.”

“They really are hopeless aren’t they?”

“Even the spider kid is making a blog about it.”

“Should someone tell them?”

“Nah, they’ll deny it and become bigger idiots. Remember the last time they did that? They didn’t speak to each for 3 days and got spider boy to carry messages on top of drunk crying into a photograph.”

“I still got the video of that. I’ll play that during their wedding. Want to go to the new bar next time? I hear they have 2 for 1 drinks.”

“Sure, hey bring some of those dumplings. My mom loves them.”

With the bill paid (always by Rhodey), the two would leave to their respective homes. Of course, much to their chagrin they would always find something disturbing whenever they come back.

Rhodey would find himself staring at a scene of Tony Stark erecting a Stephen Strange shrine complete with handmade figurines. Some of those figurines look far too anatomically detailed…and naked…

“Goddamnit Tony…”

Wong on the other hand will find himself catching Stephen Strange watching Tony Stark shower through one of the scrying mirrors.

“The scrying mirrors are not for your voyeuristic pursuits Stephen!”

overlycaffeinatedwarmage replied to your post: This semester I’m dealing with arguably the worst...

I’m not sure where you’re going, but the university may not have as many options as you think. It may be this or fire him. It may not have gotten this bad until recently either. Stuff can take a turn really quickly.

He made clear that aside from the latest suicide attempt he’s been dealing with divorce, pending homelessness, and an institutionalized daughter since before Christmas, so before the start of the semester, even before preparation time for the semester. He had no curriculum prepared and has basically been winging it for the last month and just now explained himself. 

I study in Copenhagen. We have pretty good worker’s rights in Denmark. He’s also one of their top researchers and has a book coming out through Cambridge University which he also has some connections to so they probably don’t want to depart with him. He has the option of taking leave from teaching and still keep working doing research for the university if he wants to keep working. If the university for some reason insisted that he had to teach they could have placed him with a ‘less important’ year/class with less of a work load. But I’m not sure if they’re allowed to insist on that. 

If this was just a sudden bad turn it would be completely understandable. But it wasn’t, and that’s now affecting 40 other people. I know there are options and they should have been considered before the start of semester.

[dantes-hotel-and-casino]

We’re a little over a week in, how are the re-reads coming?  Discovering anything new?  Fun hidden plot gems you are just now figuring out?  Characters you liked before but can’t stand now, or vice versa?

Personally (this is @overlycaffeinatedwarmage), I’m waiting until I’m done to post my analysis, but I’ve found a bunch of unanswered questions so far. As well as a renewed dislike for a couple people and a few plot bunnies!
