Comics Wrap-Up - Always Here, Always on Time, Close Call
OK, a short, fun, wrap-up for you this week - cos it's all in the 'Other Stuff' category! (As always, I blame Loki.)

Friday Fics Fix - Your Pal. Your Bucky.
'Bucky went town to town, dance hall to dance hall, picking up women despite his dull dancing shoes. His smile made up for it. He took Steve to the local ones, but he always danced away into the crowd. Bucky loved to dance.
Loved.
Back then Bucky loved a lot of things.'
What, did you really think that we'd reach the end of Pride Month (aka June,) without me rec'ing you some Stucky?! No way!
(Fangirling notes:
Rec'ing is recommending.
Stucky is a romantic and/or sexual relationship between Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers (Captain America) - aka the relationship that Marvel needs to give us immediately.)

Friday Fics Fix - Wooing, Midgard-Style
'"I always have to wonder about it, you know?" Loki whispers one night as they're eating take out and watching a television program.
Tony looks up from his food, "Wonder about what?" he frowns.
"Yeah." Loki nods, but doesn't continue talking.'
OK, this is take 2 of this post, because it actually effing published itself on Wednesday.
My luck, sometimes guys, my luck.
Obviously that version was deleted (the deleting was done with the accompaniment of me squealing 'ahhhh!' quite a bit.)
You don't need to see my drafts. It's not a good thing. 😅
So, this fic.
This fic is random af. And you all know that that's just the way I like it! 😉

Comics Wrap-Up - One More Off-Key Anthem
I don't know whether you've noticed lately, but these comics wrap-ups are less thorough than they used to be - but don't panic! That's on purpose.
It was getting to the point where I was trawling things formulaically and obsessing over not missing anything.
So I figured I'd take it back to basics - sharing comics-related stuff I found awesome or funny or whatever over the course of the week! 😎

Friday Fics Fix - An Unlikely Friendship
"Nah." Peter is holding Ned's ankles, and every time Coach Jones walks by Ned does a half hearted push-up. "He gave me peanuts and told me he wasn't dead? I think he's lonely."
Every so often, a fic drops into your lap that you weren't expecting.
And I love that feeling. I love it. Not least because it becomes less common as you become more familiar with fanfiction.
I value that reminder that fanfiction can still surprise me! 😊

I Liked Avengers: Infinity War, But I Didn't LOVE It. Here's Why. (SPOILER FILLED)
Leaving the cinema after watching Avengers: Infinity War, The Bestie turned to me and said:
'Do you get why I said that once you've seen it, you really wanna watch it again, like, straight away?!'
And me, a diehard Marvel fan, who loves the Marvel films 'til the end of the line, said:
'No... not really. It was ok, though.'

Friday Fics Fix - Just Your Resident Mildly Evil Demigod... and His Lover
'Tony wasn’t sure who’d be unhappier: the team when they found out he was sleeping with their resident mildly evil demigod, or Loki when he found out that Tony would be late for their dinner date on account of being buried alive.'
Yes, that is a quote from this week's fic. Yes, it is awesome.
In my defence, I haven't rec'd FrostIron in ages! I've held myself back for a remarkably long time 😉

Comics Wrap-Up - And The Silence Is So Deafening, It's Like Picking at a Sore
I'm super-tired this week, so if I'm spouting nonsense and/or using verbiage and syntax usually found only in 19th Century novels (a weird habit I have sometimes when I'm tired,) then that's why! 😅
