Fandom-Free Bingo - Madness May!

Please Note. Following implications of the behaviour of a certain previously-credible author and its affect on the queer community, we will no longer be reblogging fills from within the Harry Potter fandom. We never wanted to make this a political environment, but this has gone beyond politics. The money raised by this woman through HP is actively going into fighting against the rights of trans folks, and we refuse to support anything to do with her. While I understand this may be upsetting to some, the mod team here is entirely under the trans* spectrum, and we would rather not have to engage with anything to do with her. Trans rights are human rights.

Note: From the end of April, we will no longer be reblogging fills from Pride Edition Cards. The AO3 collection will remain open indefinitely, however, and any Tumblr post that fills Pride or earlier prompts and any prompt from a later edition will still be reblogged on those grounds. This means that posts covering exclusively Pride prompts or earlier will no longer be reblogged <3 

Now, on to May! In honour of mental health awareness month, it's time to show your inner crazy. As always, this is a good-faith event, and individual experiences are subjective when they feed into our works. With that in mind, however, any fills explicitly hating on certain disorders or those who struggle with them will not be reblogged. With that in mind, please welcome Madness May!

- Turnaround time is hopefully no longer than a week. If you've been waiting longer than this, please feel free to reach out!

- Feel free to interpret the prompts however you wish - the world is your oyster! <3 Note: Terms with a stereotypically applied gender (e.g 'Princess', 'king') are not gender-restricted! Some things are just hard to make gender-neutral, especially in limited space. Gimmie those boy princesses and nb kings to your hearts content. <3  

- No restriction to one prompt per fic/chapter.  

- You can merge this event with others, so long as the other event permits this.  

- Please mark rating clearly, and use CW where applicable. Posts not adequately marked will not be reblogged. We love you folks, and all the work you produce, but we get a lot of reblogs and have lives outside the event - we don't always have the time to be chasing down ratings or fandoms ;-;

- Use the tags #FandomFreeBingo and #Fandom Free Bingo: Madness May, and tag @fandom-free-bingo on tumblr for a reblog - don't forget to also add in the pairing/characters, rating, the fandom and the warnings in the tags please <3  

- Madness May sign ups will run until May 31st, 2025. Feel free to post after this date, however - works will be reblogged until April 30th, 2026, and the Ao3 collection will be open indefinitely.  

- A maximum of FOUR cards per participant. 

- This season we are offering BOTH 5x5 and 3x3 cards - please let us know which you would like!    

- All media forms, fandoms and original works are welcome!  

- You can request square changes twice (of any number), for up to a week after the card is issued.  

- Be respectful to other participants.

- Be kind to us!  

- Ao3 collection can be found here!

We also have a Discord!

To See The Bruises

Clintasha? Check. Fluffy bullshit? Check. Angsty as hell? Check. I could have used this opportunity to read something new but no, I love this too much, take the promo you're given and go read To See the Bruises by @42donotpanic.

'Clint Barton, Agent of SHIELD is sent on a very simple mission: Find the Black Widow, make sure she doesn't blow anything up and take her out. But what actually happened is a totally different story.'

It was written for us because Panic& and us are absolute idiots and decided to write for one another's OTPs, and I love this even more than I expected. Show it some love so I get more chapters! <3

Chapters: 1/11 Fandom: Daredevil (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Major Character Death Relationships: Matt Murdock & Franklin “Foggy” Nelson, Jonathan “Jack” Murdock & Matt Murdock Characters: Matt Murdock, Franklin “Foggy” Nelson, Jonathan “Jack” Murdock, Stick (Marvel), Margaret Murdock Additional Tags: Canon-Typical Violence, Character Death, Funeral, Hospitals, Abusive Stick (Daredevil) Series: Part 10 of Kill A Character Bingo, Part 7 of 26 Ways to break Matt Murdock’s Heart Summary:

“A Murdock never stays down,” Foggy said, looking over the painfully small group of people sitting in the chapel. “That’s what Matt lived by. Be it in the boxing ring, after a failed exam, or even one of the admittedly too many times we were out at night, strolling through the city and drinking too much cheap beer. He never stayed down.”

“A Murdock never stays down,” Jack muttered through the tears, dragging himself from the couch to tend to a screaming baby. “A Murdock never gives up.” A collab with @42donotpanic for @killacharacterbingo!

“That sounds lovely,” Clint smiled weakly. “I’ll try okay?”

“Car picnic?” Bucky tilted his head, “then you just have to sit and enjoy the view.”

“I’ll try,” Clint repeated, biting his lip and watching Bucky as he started making a simple pancake batter.

“Hey,” Bucky said, offering a soft smile with the bowl and whisk in his hands. “I promise we’ll do something nice tonight, okay? Even if you don’t feel up to going out.”

First & Last Lines

Rules: post the first and last lines of the last 10 fics you posted.

Thank you for tagging me @auofgoldandfantasies !

I'm skipping Podfics for this. Also a fair warning, I did a dump of Oneshots I found, so there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to what I've posted recently and there is some smut in between. Also I am realising there are some other warnings that I added next to the title.

I - Not how this was supposed to work (WIP)

First: Foggy Nelson had never been a scaredy-cat. In general, he wasn’t afraid of a lot of things. He wasn’t scared of going to the doctor or the dentist, and he wasn’t afraid of the dark, spiders, heights, or the boogie man either.

Last: “I think it just might,” Karen answered, smiling softly. “They might not become friends, but they might make okay roommates.”

II - Ten out of Ten (MCD Warning)

First: Matt got the call from the hospital while he was in class.

Last: It was only when Foggy rested a soft, almost brotherly hand on his friend’s shoulder that he realised Matt wasn’t frozen, he was crying.

III - When the World is too much, you are my Bubble

Note: This one is a collection of ficlets for two OCs I came up with, so the first and the last line do not belong to the same story.

First: “Is it beautiful?” Jamie asked, closing her eyes as she leaned against G’s side and enjoyed the warmth of the sun on this day in early spring.

Last: “That’s cute,” Jamie hummed, then started laughing. “Buck and my Dad met when my dad was being an idiot and Buck stopped him from running in front of a car or something.” She laughed again. “Honestly, every time you ask them they give you a different story.”

IV - Of Soup, Flowers and Tattoos (WIP)

First: “Every flower has a meaning, you know?” Foggy was leaning on the counter of ‘Sweet and Spicy’, when the restaurant had a quiet moment. He was watching the guy working in the small flower shop across the street from their soup café. “Every type of flower, every colour, and even the way they are arranged can tell whole stories.”

Last: “Yes, Clint.” Matt chuckled softly. “Bucky and you own a Tattoo Studio. I would be surprised if you didn’t have Tattoos and piercings.” He traced Clint’s neck again, smiling as the other man leaned in again. “I just don’t know which ones and what they look like, so I was a little surprised when I suddenly had two pieces of metal in my mouth.” He licked his own lips, then traced his thumb over Clint’s again, pulling softly at one of the black metal rings. “I don’t mind. Actually, I quite like it.” He smirked, signing slowly with one hand still cupping Clint’s jaw. “It’s wild and interesting, just like you.”

V - Just let yourself have this (Smut Warning)

First: “Hello, handsome.” A low, rich voice, laced with an English accent approached Clint.

Last: Charles simply brushed a soft kiss into Clint’s hair, smiling softly and breathing in his scent. “Sleep tight, sweetheart.”

VI - Stop telling me you're sorry and just let me fuck you silly (unsurprisingly: Smut Warning)

First: “Tell me what you want, pretty boy.” James purred right into Clint’s ear. He was leaning on his elbow, the fingers of his other hand softly tracing Clint’s chest.

Last: “I mean...” Clint chuckled, smirking up at his partner as well, “I wouldn’t say no, if you’re offering...”

VII - Clint's Love-Hate Relationship with Food (Eating Disorder Warning)

First: "Are you really gonna eat all of those?" Tony asked with surprise and almost something like disgust in his voice.

Last: “Yeah,” Matt scoffed. “I’m definitely not gonna leave you alone with this gaggle of idiots while your brain is being stupid,” he gestured around them, vaguely indicating the other Avengers, but mostly meaning Tony. “You’re my baby hawk, you’re gonna get all the cuddles you want tonight.”

VIII - Blanket Nest

First: “Clint-Buddy, are you okay?” Foggy asked as he came back from the kitchen with a fresh mug of coffee.

Last: “You’re perfect, Clint,” Matt signed at some point, simply making Clint smile this time. “Never change who you are for anyone but yourself.”

IX - Arrow, Snowflake, Star

First: “It’s not pretty,” Bucky muttered, wrapping their arms protectively around their chest, the right one covering the weaker left. “It’s everything but pretty...”

Last: “It’s more than I need to know that you’re my little treasure,” Clint said, just like I had done earlier. “We’re always gonna take care of you, no matter what happens.”

X - Why are archers so annoying?

First: “You wanna give it a shot?” Clint asked, gesturing with his bow before going to pick up his arrows from the targets on the other end of the lane.

Last: “Both.” I decided. “Both is good.” “Then both it is.” Clint smiled nodding for me to follow him. “Come on, little Hawk, let’s get you your treats.”

Digital fanart of Matt Murdock from the daredevil comics. Matt has bright red and white wings that stretch from his back as he sits on the edge of his bed, using the palm of his left hand to rub one of his eyes as jf just waking up. He wears a T-shirt and pair of shorts, and has various purple and green bruises on his knees, elbows and under his eye and chin. There is light shining on him from the right implying it's early morning.

Wing Matt for @stripedscribe!

Happy FFWF! Lets play a find the word game: Valentine's Day Edition! Find any of these words in your WIP, and post the part where they appear: pink / red / heart / valentine / chocolate / ribbon / love / friend / partner / boyfriend / girlfriend / husband / wife / couple / date / kiss / card / candy / dinner / flirt / snuggle / soulmate / together / always / arrow / candle / rose / beautiful / handsome / hug

I got the first and it's actually pretty much at the start to a WIP I'm working on that I have yet to post C:

“Hi,” Bucky greeted, fidgeting nervously under Clint’s assessing gaze and inadvertently trying to hide his left side from view. “Hey,” Clint offered a soft smile, pulling his long hair into a ponytail and checking that the magnets of his cochlear implants were still firmly in place almost automatically. The motion was just as much to get himself more comfortable as it was to set the other man at ease, as Clint revealed his own disability. The gesture didn’t do much, but it was enough to release some of the attention from Bucky’s shoulder and let him take a more natural stance that revealed what he had been trying to hide. “Come in, I promise I don’t bite without asking first.” Clint chuckled, waving the younger man over with a playful wink. The joke relieved some more of the awkward tension in the room and Clint’s patient gesture was enough for Bucky to move where he was still frozen in the doorway. “I... Sorry...” He muttered, the blush colouring his cheeks turning from rose to bright pink. “It’s okay,” Clint assured him gently, leading the way along the hall to a small but cosy living room. “This is a safe space, which means you get to be as shy or outgoing as you happen to be.” Bucky just nodded quietly, sitting down on the couch a little stiffly when Clint offered.

Let me show you my world of books

42donotpanic, Iithril

Summary:

As a child, Matt always loved going to the library. That changed with his accident. As an adult, it takes the excitement of one particular Librarian to re-kindle that love.

Today I'm here to rec a cute little fic from @42donotpanic! This one's a rarepair, folks, (written for the DDE Rarepair Bang, in fact!) so if you love Clint Barton or Matt Murdock, check it out to see if you like them even better together! It's got some great environmental detail as it explores Matt's experiences in libraries as a space, and Matt is a bit of a flirt (as usual). I was really fascinated to see Clint as a civilian here, I think it totally changes the dynamic without the Avengers and their associated world-ending dangers, haha. It was a cozy, sweet story with a lot of introspection and some good ol fashioned boy-kissing. Plus, it has some lovely art by Iithril at the end!

WHBB 2025 - Mod Call!

Dear fellow WinterHawkers, it is almost that time of the year again when we will be looking for artists and writers who are interested in joining us in another round of the Bang.

Before we can start, however, we have some planning and preparation to do. Due to personal and time reasons, we are looking to make some changes to the Mod team this year.

If you are interested in joining our little team and supporting us, please check out the event rules and possibly last year’s schedule to make sure you are ready to commit to joining us for the entire duration of the event and then fill out this so we know where your strengths are and what you could bring to the team. The form will stay open until 7 February.

Further updates on this year’s schedule will follow hopefully soon and we are excited to see many new and old friends in the Event.

– Mods Panic and Jess

P.S.: To make the wait a little shorter check out the previous year’s stories here if you haven’t already!

3. Surprise Attraction by ivvic (Mature, 27k words)

Summary: Clint ends up with a baby while working at the circus and is not coping well with single parenthood. Bucky steps in and offers them a place to stay.

4. Spring Dawning by ArtaxLivs (Explicit, 16k words)

Summary: “Two lovers separated by the light, both an animal and a man in darkness,” Clint easily recited, having heard it hundreds of times over the years, “A woman with no past, running in a life that isn’t her own. A god in exile, unable to trust his own strength. A genius whose mind is lost to a dragon. A leader frozen in time in a lake above the clouds. And the bard with no heart cursed to speak the truth but never know it.” OR - Ladyhawke? I think you meant Winterhawk.

5. love song (for a girl) by daisytarget (Explicit, 39k words)

Summary: Jamie Barnes is a competent sort of woman. She does her therapy, she cooks her meals, she stabs her own enemies. She doesn't need much in the world, because her independence is her greatest treasure. And then she meets Cat Barton, all sweet smiles and butch build and slow drawl and helpful instincts, and all that kind of goes out the window, because while she doesn't need, she certainly wants. She really wants. Cat Barton has no idea what's coming to her, stuck on the prettiest lady she's ever seen who makes her feel - well, not needed, because she'd surely fuck that up. But wanted. Yeah. It makes her, against her life's advice otherwise, really want Jamie Barnes back.

6. Soul Mambo Jumbo by ElloPoppet (Teen And Up Audiences, 16k words)

Summary: “Well, to keep it simple, Clint – you know Clint, Barton? – well, I might have accidentally gotten his soul stuck in an Astral Dimension. I could use some help finding him and, ideally, bringing him back.” If Bucky hadn’t lived the lives he’d lived (so many lives in his hundred-plus years), he might have dropped the box of tea in his hands, or let the vortex of confusionconcernshockfearexhaustion that Bruce’s explanation stirred within him show on his face. But he’d had practice at this, at living through moments like these. He placed the box gently on the counter and inhaled deep enough to hurt. “Okay,” he said on the exhale. “And how do we do that?” - Or, Bucky's soul does find Clint's in the Astral Dimension, but the 'bringing him back' part of the mission takes time.

* an art piece by ivvic: [link]

* an art piece by frenchfriedgiraffe: [link]

7. Every Breath You Take (Scars Edition) by Reremouse (Mature, 18k words)

Summary: Scars tell a story about where we’ve been and what we’ve experienced. Soulmates only meet after that life experience has been lived. That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re ready for it. Shortly after the takedown of Project Insight, Steve turns up at the tower with a quieter Bucky looking for a place to recover himself. It’s a solid plan, at least, until Clint walks right into Bucky, triggers their soul bond, and pretty much tosses Steve’s entire Bucky recovery plan out the window. Bucky is probably not ready to further complicate his life with a soulmate, so Clint does the only decent thing and retreats to his apartment in Bed Stuy. Maybe he should have consulted with Bucky first. A story about soulmates, friends in a tower, enemies in tracksuits, Steve looking out for Bucky, Tony looking out for everyone, the Winter Soldier on his own mission, and Clint.

I guess that's just what we get for making up pairs so rare no one else thinks about them 😂💜❤️💚

3 different crops of the same image. 

Foggy is sitting sideways in Matt's lap, leaning down to kiss Clint, who is kneeling between Matt's legs. Matt's expression isn't visible behind the other two but his eyes are half-lidded and there is a slight blush. 

Foggy's hands are on both of their shoulders, holding them closer. Clint's hand is around Matt's caff. Matt's got a hand on each of their waists. This arrangement has been described to me as "people macrame"

Participants' Favourite Reads From 2024! Part One

This year (for the 2024 reading year) we decided to put together a list of 1-5 fics per reader who chose to contribute their favourite reads from throughout the year and share them with you! The list is wildly eclectic, but I have faith in them that they're excellent reads and I may even be trying out some new fandoms next year as a result! I do hope you find something you like!

Part One | Part Two

Participants' Favourite Reads From 2024! Part One

Juuls: I tried to find the authors’ handles on Tumblr but if I got you wrong, just let me know and it’s a quick fix! 😘😊 If you happen to know the handle of a fic mentioned, let me know as well! ❤️💙💜

@onceuponaswanqueen

Orchards by winlatter

Relationship: Harry/Ginny

This fic is set the summer of HBP prior to Hogwarts starting with flash forwards to post series.

A look at how Harry went from seeing Ginny as Ron's little sister to something more.

The Victors' Project by oisin55

A story for every victor (The Hunger Games), not compatible with Songbirds and Snakes.

The best piece of fanfiction I have ever read.

tell all the truth (but tell it slant) by susiecarter

Relationship: Clark Kent/Bruce Wayne

A fake dating fic that was so good it left me flabbergasted. I don't even ship this, i am not even in this fandom, but holy shit this was one of the best things i have ever read.

@Elvira_Kamgut

In tales or in history by @bisquared

Relationship: Bard/Thranduil

A 1001 nights AU.

Ship-to-ship combat by @pomeloquat

Relationship: Clark Kent/Bruce Wayne

The one where Clark starts writing Batman/Bruce Wayne fanfiction to pay his rent and accidentally falls in love with Bruce Wayne while being hung up over Batman.

Ni Partayli, Gar Darasuum (I Remember You, So You Are Eternal) by LeeTheHobbit

Fandom: Star Wars/The Mandalorian

A time travel fix-it, where The Mandalorian and friends accidentally travel back in time and land in the middel of the Battle on Korda VI.

@brandileigh2003

crimson rivers by @bizarrestars

Fandom: Harry Potter/Marauders era

Rating: Explicit (not so much for sex, though it's present; more for violence, etc)

Relationship: James Potter/Regulus Black and Sirius Black/Remus Lupin

So well written, one of my fave characteristizations of Remus, Sirius, and Wolfstar in general.

orange juice (i've been ready for you to come home for so long) by @raggedyponnd

Fandom: Harry Potter/Marauders era

Relationship: Sirius Black/Remus Lupin

Not Rated

Wonderful writing, emotions, some of my favorite tropes and disabled/chronically ill Remus and rep is so so important to me.

love finds a way by @littleoldrachel

Fandom: Harry Potter/Marauders era

Relationship: Sirius Black/Remus Lupin.

Jurassic Park crossover, getting back together trope, trans and disabled Remus. I didn't want to put this down!!

Rescue Me by @welfycat

Fandom: CSI: Las Vegas.

I read this fandom blind and it's such an amazing case-fic that it made me get into the show.

Cambion by callowyn (@cambionverse) & @thegeminisage

Fandom: Supernatural

Explores minor characters from the show that were left behind and it's so so good.

@sparkylurkdragon

The Sword Reforged by Ardil the Traveller

Fandom: The Legend of Zelda

Rating: T

Rec notes: An epic reimagining of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. It's an excellent fix-it fic, still in progress, but the author is very driven to get it finished, one week at a time.

Dream Girl by Teorwyn

Fandom: The Legend of Zelda

Rating: T

Relationship: Link/Marin

Rec notes: A novelization of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, with a twist: Marin realises she's in the Wind Fish's dream.

Hanging By a Thread by Arwriter

Fandom: Batman

Rating: NR

Rec notes: I'll let the summary speak for itself. Great angst-with-a-happy-ending even fandom-blind. "He pushed his way through the rickety hallway, shoving open the basement door and taking the steps two at a time. Only to freeze at the bottom, breath catching in his throat. They'd hung his brother from a noose."

@jandjsalmon

Missed Connections by @powerofadyingsun

Relationship: Cahir/Cirilla

Rated E, 7/7 chapters

A Modern The Witcher AU that deals with royalty with a side of ptsd thrown in. SO good. It was my first Cahir/Cirilla fic but won’t be my last because it was wonderful and I was VERY emotional reading it.

Pomegranate. by @theravenandtheartist

Relationship: Wednesday/Xavier

Rated T, 1/1 chapters

Wednesday is perfectly in character. Xavier is adorkable. And honestly, I just have a unhealthy love for Hades and Persephone. So while this is NOT a Greek Myth AU, the mythology does play into the story and I loved how it was done.

Folie à Deux by @cypresssunns

Relationship: Marta/Ransom -

Rated E, 1/1 chapters

A super delightful Knives Out fic. It is a “Marriage of Convenience/Ransom remains a sociopath but Marta kinda likes him like that” kinda fic. It was delightful and if you’re into co-dependency and couples where no one is really a good person - this is the fic for you!

our bodies are made of celestial light by @starlightafterastorm

Relationship: Osha/Qimir

Fandom: The Acolyte/Star Wars — Rated M, 3/3 chapters

Did you say SOULMATES?! Yes. Red string of fate. It’s absolutely gorgeous. My particular fave is how Qimir is written. Perfectly in character with what we got in The Acolyte. Just delish. AND soulmates. SO good. 10/10 would/will read again.

@42donotpanic

The Five Stages of Neighborly Affection wirtten by phonecallfromgod & youshallnotfinditso, and read by AlannaLioness (Fic and Podfic included).

Rating: T

Relationship: Matt Murdock/Foggy Nelson, Stephanie Brown/Tim Drake, Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent.

One of my favourite fics, with a whole lot of identity shenanigans, a mystery… and Foggy, who is just done with Vigilantes.

the head doesn't always rule the heart written and read by @flowerparrish

Rating: M

Relationship: Matt Murdock/Sam Winchester

A very cute and fluffy Soulmate 'verse that focuses on falling in love the old fashioned way and makes me squeal happily every time I listen to it.

A Thousand Paper Cranes written by @missmoochy

Rating: G

Relationship: Matt Murdock/Foggy Nelson

A sweet, slightly angsty fic about being too late and missing out on a chance.

Different Kinds of Love written by myself (Series)

Rating: Main fic is rated T, the oneshots are rated E.

Relationship: Clint Barton/Matt Murdock, Matt Murdock/Natasha Romanov.

A series about Love and how it can take different shapes and forms.

@freedvmrouge

we stopped kissing the tar on the highway (I’d like it if you stayed) by thepinkcallalily — tumblr: @razzledazzledee

@37nightwalker

Betting warmth against the cold (all the bruises seem to surface) by elareine — tumblr: @elareine

Fake Out by redbirdandbluebird23 — tumblr: @redbirdandbluebird23

Anonymous

Détraquée - Hystaracal

Harry Potter - Draco/Hermione - M - 728,097 words

One small thing Hermione does differently in 6th year leads to an avalanche of changes. This is easily one of the best fics I have ever read, and it completed posting this year. It's Hermione-centric but eventual dramione, told from her perspective (and therefore unreliable and full of her mental quirks), and I spent every update enraptured by the poesy of the writing style.

Peeta Mellark's Five Favorite Things to Bake - aimmyarrowshigh

The Hunger Games - Gen, but mild Katniss/Peeta, Annie/Finnick - T - 2,348 words

A study of Peeta during and after the Games, with the additional perspective time can give. This is a very short read but has so much packed into it. It's bittersweet but so, so filling.

my love, all we'll ever be is a tragedy - irridescence

Avatar: The Last Airbender - Katara/Zuko - T - 16,747 words

In which Zuko dies, goes back in time, and tries again. This one is full angst, but so beautifully written you almost don't care that you're crying about it all.

@secretsofthemourning

Fresh Blood (series) by @babygotbooks

Fandom: Wednesday (2022)

Relationship: Wednesday/Xavier

Rated E, 7/7 chapters in the series, and 4 stories overall, complete

Gothic Romance with serial killer!Xavier and cannibal!Wednesday in which Wednesday needs to consume human flesh in order to survive and sustain her life force and the subsequent tale that follows from their teen to adult years. (This can easily be used as a “coming-of-age,” character AU, or universe/story AU to complete the challenge requirement, or character has mental-illness such as PTSD.)

Put The Heat On by @darnold-longkid

Fandom: Hey Arnold!

Helga Pataki/Arnold Shortman – E, 23/23 chapters — (All characters are age 18+ and high school seniors)

A very horny Shortaki fic with a lot of heart. In which Arnold accident finds himself unintentionally playing the voyeur to Helga without her knowledge. Now he can’t stop thinking about her. Too bad he messed up their friendship last year, and she refuses to have anything to do with him.

(Perfect for tasks that need stories with ships of 75K words or more, most popular fic/ship fic in fandom, or a fic that references one of the five senses. Also perfect for classic “childhood friends,” “Enemies-to-lovers,” “Rivals-to-lovers,” “Friends-to-enemies-to-lovers,” or any combination thereof. Or a fandom that has not produced any canon content in the last 5 years (excluding Nickelodeon video games and such using Arnold, Helga, and Gerald etc.))

Stacy’s Cardamom by @babsvibes

Fandom: Bob’s Burgers

(Louise/Logan – M, 2/2) (Chapter 2 is bonus scene, if strictly reading Chapter 1, rating is T and can still be read as complete story) (All characters are aged-up and grown adults.)

According to Logan Bush, Louise’s mom has got it goin’ on. Or that’s what he wants her to think. Logan Bush is back in town and is spending way too much time at the Belcher’s restaurant and way too much time with his sights set on Linda. Logan is getting under Louise’s skin, but it’s not going the way he pictured. If everyone else can see past Logan’s charade, why is Louise still so oblivious?

(You can complete several of the tasks for LGBTQIA+ characters and stories with Genderfluid!Gene and Bisexual Louise, Can be used for month/week based writing/reading challenge as one of the chapters was included as a contribution to Louigan Week 2023, a pet not typically found in the fandom’s canon, or fic that takes place ten or more years in the future, if they’re there in the 2025 sheet.)

The Spider and the Fly by GoodMourningCoffee (myself)

Fandom: Beetlejuice

(Lydia/Betelgeuse – E, 2/2) (Chapter 2 is full trigger list and playlist, Chapter 1 is full story.)

A “fix-it”/ “what-if” fic in which Betelgeuse’s plans succeed. Mixes elements of the musical and the 1988 movie, but is predominately based on the movie. A gothic “romance”, dark fic/Dead Dove fic that is absolutely morally reprehensible with Betelgeuse and Charles both being absolute villains. Check triggers.

Can be used to satisfy requirements of canon divergent, “first fic in this fandom” by established author in other fandoms, fic that passes the Bechdel Test (and possibly the Mako Mori test? Mako Mori passing is questionable depending on perspective), character whump, good guy teams up with bad guy, or read fic from 10 different kinks/tropes, or fic title that comes from a song/song title.

wjgravity

[Let Me Try](Series) by coldcreation: Original omegaverse, M/M/M/M. Some of my favorite filth with way more feelings than should be allowed.

[In A Family Way] by puddleofgoo. Stargate Atlantis. M/M Crackfic with poor McKay accidentally acquiring a collection of color-coded, post-it note wielding squid.

[The Right Dom for the Job] by VelvetPaw. HockeyRPF, several M/M pairings. A favorite Hockey BDSM fic from a favorite author.

I have done many things in the past week and a half. :3c

I have written two double drabbles, Trick-or-Treat and The Beauty Part, both Foggy/Matt with podfic versions also available.

The round robin fic I wrote with many pals Every Sunday Forever (If That's What It Takes) has been completed, cleaned up, and posted! \o/ Aromantic Foggy&Matt goodness as they're stuck in a time loop. (Pals :D @42donotpanic @auofgoldandfantasies Kimmy Marv @fanboy-sloth @stripedscribe )

I also did much podding (for me) during the @voiceteam Mystery Box event!

Podfic of Cornflower Blue by @inkforhumanhands a very nifty Fisk/Wesley fic going into Wesley's backstory.

Podfic of Safer Up High by @42donotpanic a Clint/Phil fic dealing with major character death and suicide that is very moving and that Panic read and to which I added music. The challenge was to add sfx or music that did not fit the tone of the original work, and I had a ton of fun working with Panic to put together something that is a bit different from my usual.

Podfic of Every Sunday Forever (If That's What It Takes) Yes! Me, @42donotpanic @stripedscribe and @ravenmold round-podded the round robin fic! I am super proud of both our fic and our pod. :D :D :D

Oral Not!Fic (Redacted) Radio Station which was a massive effort headed by @42donotpanic and has something like 15 contributors, of which I got to voice Host 1. Very fun! Come check out all the latest superhero news in our radio show!

So, yah, 3 fics (1 much much longer than the other 2, haha) and 6 audio fanworks I was involved in. Busy start to the beginning of 2025, but also lots of chaotic fun! ^^

Writing Reflection

After getting into writing last year I went mildly to totally insane this year. I wrote more than I even thought possible, already upped my writing goal in January after writing like 30k on WIPs alone in two weeks, only to then end up hitting my yearly writing goal in September anyway.

I got into Podfic this year and it has brought me a lot of joy to work on recording and editing, as well as to participate in even more challenges and exchanges than I did last year.

Once again, I met a lot of lovely people and had a great time writing and simply enjoying fandom with people I like to consider friends by now.

There were many ups and downs, but I'm glad to say that, over all, this year was a good one for me.

I hope you had a good year as well and wish everyone a good start into the New Year. 💜

First & Last Lines

Rules: post the first and last lines of the last 10 fics you posted.

Thank you for tagging me @evenfallreads ! (I'm also late, but whatever)

I'm skipping Podfics for this. Also a fair warning, I did Whumpcember, so all of these will be more or less Whumpy.

I - You and me (and the voices in my head)

First: Can’t I have quiet for five fucking seconds? I tried to calm my mind, doing my best to keep my breathing steady, even as I was getting more and more overstimulated by the second. I had to focus on something else, do something else, but there wasn’t anything that would help. There was just me and Clint and the noise inside my own mind. Just let me deal with life first.

Last: “Will do.” Clint smiled, brushing another kiss on my head. “Go, take that shower, and then curl up in bed, if you like. I’ll deal with dinner and come find you when it’s done.”

II - Arrow End

First: “I thought we said we wanted to stop meeting like this...” I signed, trying to keep my expression casual, even at the sight of my partner in yet another hospital bed after yet another mission gone horribly wrong.

Last: Now, he could finally focus his energy on building a new life for himself.

III - The Difference between Alone and Lonely

First: Clint was sitting at Natasha’s grave. He was sitting on the cold, black dirt and leaning against the headstone.

Last: “I’m sorry.” The Archer sighed again. “But I just can’t get up.”

IV - Brothers (WIP)

First: Matt was sitting at Fogwell’s, leaning over one of the Braille books he had gotten for school and trying to remember what all the different letters felt like when there was a timid knock at the front door. The public classes and training sessions for the day had already ended about 30 minutes earlier and quiet was starting to fall over the gym as only a few fighters were still there to get a few training rounds of their own in.

Last: A Murdock never backed down from a fight.

V - A Kitten in Winter

First: It was winter in the city.

Last: I was so tired.

VI - Sleep is(n't) for the weak

First: “Bubba..." I sighed, wheeling up to the bed where Bucky was curled around my balled-up fluffy blanket, staring blankly at his phone. “Hey, sweetie, it’s the middle of the night.”

Last: “Yeah.” Bucky brushed another kiss on my head. “I’m glad I got you back.”

VII - Fighter

First: Matt was used to pain.

Last: “Matty, I don’t think Daredevil will fight again.”

VIII - Even at your lowest point 

First: “Bucky?” Clint was standing at the door to the small apartment somewhere in Brooklyn, where Bucky had been living since he was back. “It’s me. It’s Clint.” He knocked, leaning his head against the wooden door. “Please let me in, I’m worried about you.”

Last: “Yeah...” Clint nodded. “Maybe we can do that.”

IX - As Long as I got You Back (WIP)

First: “Bucky!” Clint called, pushing past the young nurse as soon as he had finished talking.

Last: “You’re my little star,” Clint whispered, brushing a soft kiss into Bucky’s hair. “And I’ll do everything I can to make it okay again.”

X - They

First: “Clint, what the fuck happened to you?” Phil froze, as soon as he pulled the blanket back and revealed Clint’s bare body.

Last: “He did what they did.”
