Ship what you like and write what you like, just make sure you tag it so it doesn't end up triggering someone who didn't want to see that. It's been proven time and time again now in studies that fictional fantasies are not indicative of a person's real life morals, but you know what is? Lacking the empathy in understanding and acknowledging that your views are not universal and just because you are okay with something, does not mean everyone is and wants to see it. There's a difference between censorship and content warnings. Censorship is far too easily weaponised at the life threatening expense of minorities and other vulnerable groups. Content warnings/tags are not censorship, it's the only way people, in real life or in fandom spaces, can safely exist in a world where censorship is rightfully rejected. Asking for common decency is not ship hate.
"My thing is not your thing" goes both ways. Anti-censorship and content warnings go hand in hand, they're essential to one another. Warnings are not an attack.
Bucky, head hung in shame: I need my arm recalibrated
Tony, sighing: and how did you fuck it up this time?
Bucky: *nods in the direction of Peter, in a corner of the lab, in his blue light sensitivity lenses and a Columbia hoodie, tinkering away on something and bobbing his head to whatever’s on his headphones
Tony: this is the third time you’ve dicked your arm up fucking Peter, you know that right? That’s excessive.
Bucky: wrong this is the third time I’ve fucked my arm up fucking Peter that you’ve found out about. Usually he can fix it himself
Tony: Jesus tits ever consider, I dunno, just being a little gentler? Little more relaxed? Lay off the wall sex for a bit?
Bucky: absolutely not I’m trying to keep him around
peak philosophy in ao3 tags
it's funny to me that the entry level requirement for being a good captain america is that you have to be in love with Bucky Barnes and that's why john walker was a shit one
Peter Parker meets batfam fics are funny to me because I think it’s bold of y’all to assume the batfam wouldn’t take one look at Peter, decide “oh that’s just a tim who still holds childhood innocence and wonder” and adopt him straight on the spot
Peter: *in Gotham for the first time* oh my gosh! *snaps photos* these buildings are so interesting! Bruce: *watching wearily* interesting? This thing is crumbling. Peter: exactly. Very good photo opportunities. Bruce: hmm.
Peter: *scarfing down the batburger Jason bought him* this is really good! Haha I just wish I had a coffee to go with it, I have a lot of studying to do tonight. Jason: *eyes narrow under helmet* coffee? Peter: *completely blazing past* so anyway are you like, the Friendly Neighborhood Crime Lord or—
Peter: *goes on long-winded chemistry rant* Damian: *staring* it’s like . . . . Jason: *leaning over to Damian* yeah. It’s like reading a translated book where everything is just slightly off but still similar enough to make you squint Damian: that is not the analogy I would have chosen, but okay Jason: hey as long as it continues to be chemistry and not technology. One of those I can handle moderately well. The other still sounds like gibberish. Damian: *raises brow* Jason: okay, yeah, I have no clue what he’s saying
they just bring Peter to the manor one day and are like “hey Tim, here’s your twin from another universe. Corrupt him with coffee addiction, murderous tendencies or general jadedness and we’ll announce Red Robin is going to finally address the copyright infringement allegations against that burger franchise”
feels like fake news
And honestly Tony had been in love with Peter for a long time. Longer then what cared to admit.
But it was Peter talking to DUM-E that sealed his fate.
He had sent DUM-E to the corner for knocking over a tray. And when Peter got in asking why he was in the corner, he didn't laugh and go about his business. He went and knelt down next to him. Patting him on his head. Quietly talking to him about how about they train together for lab safety and maybe update his sensors to help prevent future accidents.
I am a WHORE for “the love is requited, they’re both just idiots”
26yo, Brazilian. Back to this site after years, still getting the hang of it and feeling old. (I multiship; It may not be of your liking.) She/Her 🩷💜🩵
