Comics Wrap-Up - I Wear This On My Sleeve
Trailers and more fun stuff from both Marvel and DC this week for you my nerdlets!
Let's get this wrap-up started!:
Friday 21 September 2018
Friday Fics Fix - Love Vs War. Freedom Vs Silence.
'He’d read all of Bucky’s letters over and over till he almost knew them by heart, and none of the phrases in the transcript were in any of those letters. There must be another letter, one that never got sent.'
Stop the presses, Cee's back on the Stucky!
Shocking, I know.
(Fangirling notes: Stucky is a Steve Rogers (Captain America) and Bucky Barnes romantic and/or sexual relationship. You can't tell me it doesn't make sense.)

Comics Wrap-Up - Everyone Here Is A Trophy
Like, what did I do to you Loki?! Why am I the outlet for your mischief?!* 😉
As you may've guessed, everything in this comics wrap-up is in the 'Other Stuff' category again.
And as always I blame Loki.

*Not that I'd overly object to that 😉

Friday Fics Fix - Snapshot in the Stars
'Nebula sits on the small piece of ship beside him. “That’s exactly what we were - mercenaries to do his bidding. He trained us, ‘loved’ us, sent us to do whatever he felt was necessary to do.”'
In case you were wondering, this has SPOILERS for Avengers: Infinity War.
So consider this your warning: SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!

Comics Wrap-Up - Well They Encourage Your Complete Co-operation
Friday 10 August 2018
Friday Fics Fix - Whose Shield Are You?
'“Ruby was dangerous and it got complicated and that is just the way it was.” Exploded Fitz, trying so desperately to keep calm but feeling his control slipping away. “So I’m sorry if it doesn’t fit with-” Fitz took a breath as his voice thickened and broke, begging for tears not to fall out of frustration, “whatever narrative that you’ve built for yourself.”'
One of the biggest plusses of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD, for me at least, is Leopold Fitz.
Played to a point nearing perfection by Iain De Caestecker, Agent Fitz has gone through pretty much any sh** that this series has to throw at him.
And this series has had a large supply of sh** to throw at him.

Comics Wrap-Up - The Stars Are Blazing Like Rebel Diamonds
It's that time of year where loads of superhero-type trailers etc. are released due to the nerd convention that is San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC).
So, since I've never stepped foot in the USA, I, like plenty of other nerds around the world, have been using the interwebs to keep up with the latest comics-related happenings.
This week's comics wrap-up is my highlights - in no way could I possibly cover all of the stuff being revealed, released, and generally yammered about, in the world of panels and capes right now!
So, this is the stuff that caught my eye. Enjoy!

Comics Wrap-Up - Got a Rock and Roll Life
It's comics time again! Woop! XD
Let's look at all the nice comics-y goodness!
(I struggle with intros - can you tell? 😅)
Friday 13 July 2018
Friday Fics Fix - Genius, Billionaire, Playboy, Philanthropist... Father
'“Alright kiddie, time for you to open your eyes… you’re really starting to freak me out.” he tapped Peters cheek lightly. “C’mon lets see those brown eyes, I know you got them.”
After another minute of face tapping and Tony hyperventilating, Peter opened his bloodshot, unfocused eyes, and gazed blearily up at his mentor.'
Let's indulge in the cuteness of Tony Stark being a parent-figure to Peter Parker this week, shall we?
Because I really wanted him to be more fatherly and less of a hypocritical douche in Spider-Man: Homecoming.
And because Tom Holland as Peter Parker is the right mix of cute, awkward, and awesome.

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 29 June 2018
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! 😉
