'Sam is pretty sure he won’t be getting up again.
“It’s not that bad,” Bucky says, his lips pressed together.
“Bad enough,” Sam rasps.'
Who wants super-angsty SamBucky?
...well that's what you're getting dammit!
The emo spaghetti goblin brain wants what the emo spaghetti goblin brain wants 😅
(Fandom notes:
SamBucky is a romantic and/or sexual relationship, also known as WinterFalcon, between Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes from the MCU (Marvel movies and TV shows - especially The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (TFATWS))
It's Thursday, I'm tired, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
It's good to remind ourselves - as often as is necessary - that the little things are there to enjoy.
...By 'ourselves' I obviously mean me - we need to remind me. 😅
Warning/Disclaimer Time:
I very briefly discuss mental health problems in this blogpost.
I also give opinions on what can contribute to people's mood, so: I'm not any sort of scientific/medical/psychological professional - I'm a chick with personal experience of mental health issues and an internet connection. OK? OK.
The little things contribute so much to our lives.
Our beautiful, messed-up, everyday lives are made up of the bracelet you wore this morning, what you had for breakfast, whether you tripped over the doorstep on your way out, what song is playing on the radio... etc. etc.
'Klaus applauded. No one joined him. No matter. He beamed brightly.
“So. Who wants to kill me?”

Warning: this post briefly discusses suicide, in relation to the content of the fanfiction discussed.
I love the way fandom creators use source material.
I love their interpretations of both characters and plot points. I love it when they write novel-length fics, and I love it when those novel-length fics are written well.
It's just... breath-taking, isn't it? How characters and stories have their own lives, away from the source material. How the interaction of fan and material can create something new and special.
It's Thursday, (somehow, again,) this is Dora Reads, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
