Summary:

Maria knows what that look means. She knows the mindset behind it. She's seen it in the resolve of agents who knew the odds of going in, heard it in field operatives calling for an exit in impossible situations, witnessed it in extraction targets who didn't believe that they'd actually make it out. And sometimes the odds were defied, the impossible happened, and everyone made it out in one piece. Sometimes.

To see that expression in the man they call the Winter Soldier....

As it turns out, I just finished the next story in my Meeting Halfway series - 30 Days of OTP: Maria Hill/Steve Rogers. I started it back in 2012, and at the rate I'm going, I might just have the lot complete by 2022...

Do I want to do Heart Attack? 10K in 2 weeks (last two weeks of NaNo, pretty much)? I mean, I certainly can, I'm just deciding whether I would and whether it would benefit any of my fics.

I haven't started my YT fic yet. I suppose I should be more worried about it but right now...I'm not stressed. (Maybe I should be? I recall it all being very "OH, I CAN DO THIS!")

--

I've done a number of fic additions or new stories, mostly because I needed something happy-shiny-fun to write and fanfic was it.

I managed fluffy fluffy fluffy for [community profile] shipoween:

Summary:

Maria had always known that someday that the shambling, soulless creature that returned from Rehabilitation would be her – used one too many times, broken beyond fixing. She’d accepted the eventuality of that end for herself. But for Phil and these children, whose crime was merely to challenge the Psy Council’s preconceptions? No. Not while she had breath.

In which Sam, Nick, Clint, and Natasha make an appearance...

On the writing board is the next installment of the 30 Days Of Your OTP (Steve/Maria), Paved With Good Intentions (Maria/Clint soulmates | Maria/Steve relationship), the next chapter of the wisdom to know the difference (honestly do not know if it will ever be finished), and the fic I'm calling baby's first moebius...

And Yuletide, of course.

I could probably write Paved With Good Intentions in 10K or more. It might end up being seriously more: shit gets REAL in that one. And it would be nice to have a significant drive to finish it. It would be nice to have a significant drive to finish any of these...

Only, there's also the original fiction to write: I was hoping to complete Act II during NaNo. Not even close right now. Need to stop re-editing in my head. Oh, and focus. It was awful focusing last week and this week seems to be ALL THE WORK THINGS.

Anyway. Back to work, I guess...

Two fics for [community profile] auexchange, two general series updates.

So, my AU Exchange assignment was Black Panther, Shuri-focused. I picked Shuri & M'Baku after the snap, in an AU where Shuri survived and mourned her brother. Wrote the story, finishing up on a Saturday morning...and not half an hour later heard that Chadwick Boseman had died.

I felt awful. Not just for Chadwick's death, but also for my recip who might have been okay with grieving/mourning fic at a time other than in the wake of the man's death... But I didn't have anything to rewrite the story with.

I could touch up a couple of other stories that had been sitting around for months (if not years) and post them, but I didn't have another Black Panther story in me before the deadline. So I submitted the fic and apologised in the note.

It's been generally well-taken. Elegiac, perhaps.

Summary:

In the chaos after the moment - that moment - Shuri has but one thought: to assure herself that T'Challa has survived.



*sigh*

I really did want to write something else - I tried to start on a 'Shuri goes to the realm of the ancestors and speaks with Eric Killmonger, the better to understand him' story, but...couldn't get my wheels in.

What I could do was touch up a few stories that have been lingering around for far too long in the 'not yet done' folder. So I did.

--

I have a soft spot for "Stark-Hill siblings" and this has been lingering in one of my folders for forever. There are also multiple half-written scenes from a largely female Avengers core, although I think they were 'all-female Avengers' teams, not 'five women and Steve'.

This is also not the sequel where Tony and Maria meet on the steps of a Boston brownstone that Peggy and Angie are living together in. That has its own storyline that will not likely ever be done.

The last time Steve saw her was driving off from Central Park with Ms. Potts in a sleek gunmetal grey Lamborghini with the numberplate MAR1A. Then, she was in jeans and a black-t-shirt with a denim jacket over the top – street casual. Now, she’s in a sleeveless dress in deep green that probably cost more than Steve’s ma made in a year back home, and which makes her look every inch the business heiress she is.




Then there's the next in the Meeting Halfway series, which, having stayed mostly in my own lane of fanon, abruptly went straight to canon.

I feel like I haven't been productive at all. I think the previous fic I posted was back in February. And yeah, there are Reasons, but I've had a lot of time and done a lot of writing and I feel like I have't actually achieved all that much at all in all that time.

This story was not created for this challenge, but I've had this fic sitting around on my HD for months and opened it up last night (before I saw the Challenge) to take a look. I was contemplating tidying and polishing it up for posting; it didn't need much.

This morning, I looked at the challenge notification email and figured it was a sign.

Dressed in worn jeans and a casual shirt, Maria Hill looks universes away from the competent aide who moved about the helicarrier control room in the sleek S.H.I.E.L.D uniform, a cool-eyed officer who kept her head in a crisis, and commanded troops with an authoritative snap to her voice. Her hand is tucked in the arm of one of the elderly residents of the hospice, and she's laughing as the old lecher pats her hand with a distinctly proprietary air.

The amusement drops from her face as she recognizes him. "Rogers."

This was actually written in the wake of my dissatisfaction with Endgame, and there was a whole other story alongside/behind it. I decided to dedicate my time and energy to other things instead.

It is finished. *flops down in a heap*

Monday, May 1st, 2017 01:33 pm
The sedoretu is coming along. I may have to skip Maria's "wait, wtf" scene with T'Challa, because I don't actually have enough space in this section. I'm trying to make each 'chapter' of the story ~3500 words, but so far we're at 1900 and I've just managed to introduce the complication. And Bucky has interrupted it as per the plan.

Now we need to have the conversation about Bucky and Steve, Maria and Steve, and Sharon and Steve, and then I was hoping there'd be room for T'Challa and Maria, but I'm doubtful.

After that, Natasha gives her opinion on EVERYTHING and starts trying to staunch the bleeding (metaphorically, not actually).

I guess this story is at the usual stage of "HIT THE PANIC BUTTONS, ALL RELEVANT PLOTBUNNIES TO THEIR STATIONS" given my life busyness right now and the due date for the [community profile] wipbigbang which is Mid-June (right around the same time as my quilts for the show are due; JOY).

--

I took a PH for a fic exchange that I can't specify because specifying it will instantly out me as the author (as though the story itself won't).

Why did I do this? Because...I don't even know why, only that I've made my situation a lot more complicated right when I don't need to.

Self? You suck.

Two fic exchange reveals (as though it wasn't immediately obvious).

[community profile] worldbuildingex

TITLE: All The Daughters Of My Father's House
SUMMARY: Lyra and Jyn Erso bouncing around a universe where the shadow of the Empire is growing longer.
CHARACTERS/PAIRINGS: Lyra Erso, Jyn Erso, Saw Gerrera, Chirrut Imwe/Baze Malbus
TAGS: Alternate Universe (canon divergence), Jedha, Lyra survives, Mother Bear, Celebrations on
RATINGS: Gen
NOTES: My assignment asked for "rogue one: give me those ladies *grabby hands* i’m super interested in the structure of the rebel alliance as well as seeing women in positions of power/getting to tell their stories *cough*lyra*cough*. alternatively, my gay azn fathers. (tell me about the jedi temple! and chirrut’s relationship with it! and chirrut/baze ofc)". There were two more chapters planned, where Lyra goes to the Rebel Alliance and tries to keep Jyn from becoming a child soldier, but I didn't get to them. The worldbuilding for Alderaan academical structures was just a little more than my brain could take at the time.

It wasn't particularly well received, but then, it's not a particularly stellar story, IMO.

My [community profile] smutswap was immediately identifiable:

TITLE: Trust Tease

CHARACTERS/PAIRINGS: Maria Hill/Steve Rogers, Thor (cameo)
TAGS: Smut, Oral Sex, Multiple Orgasms, Fucked Raw, Sex
RATINGS: NC-17
NOTES: I had [personal profile] sunspot on my treats list anyway, because I never get assigned the Maria/Steve prompts...and lo and behold, I got assigned to them! So I wrote smut. It's very vanilla smut at this point, although they discuss/negotiate kink for later times, and I was planning to write the later times, only again, the due date defeated me.

I got a bit of flak on this one for forgetting that it was smut and labelling it 'G', which then had a whole bunch of people clicking on the story to check that I hadn't signed up for a smut swap and then written non-smut. However, I found it somewhat amusing that someone on FFA apparently gathered their courage, closed their eyes, and searched for oral sex in the story - OMG THE HET SEX IT BURNS MY EYEN!

--

Otherwise, April was spent in Camp NaNo trying to write original fiction - back to the Shadowkids again. I have the structure, I just have to concentrate enough to write it, dammit.

So May: write fic, make quilts, seek job, get winter garden in, score goals for hockey, cook for self...

Summary:
A sedoretu is a four-person marriage, an intricate mesh of six dynamics - sexual and non-sexual - between Morning man, Evening woman, Morning woman, and Evening Man, a bond of delicate trust.

When Steve Rogers makes Bucky Barnes a promise at age sixteen, he doesn't know that he'll be keeping it at age ninety-six.

When Bucky Barnes meets Natasha Romanoff in the course of their work at the KGB, he won't remember her for another seven years.

When Natasha Romanoff encounters Maria Hill in SHIELD, she isn't thinking of desire or fondness, only of trust - and that it's the first time she's been allowed the choice.

When Maria Hill lets Steve Rogers climb into her bed, she can't imagine the fall - but love is more than sex and emotions, a hard and sometimes lonely road to walk.

When a sedoretu consists of Captain America, the former Deputy Director of SHIELD, the Black Widow, and the Winter Soldier, things are bound to get downright complicated...

I’d written the prologue and the first of the six stories when the Marvel Bang came up, and wrote the remaining five of the six stories as my challenge.

The link above takes you to the series on AO3.

I was assigned two artists for the [livejournal.com profile] marvel_bang ([livejournal.com profile] flipflop_diva and [livejournal.com profile] sandrasfisher), but I also commissioned Jiinsy Designs to make some art for some of the stories, because I had some money at the time and she was looking for commissions.

The EPIC FINALE is still a bunch of notes and 3K of Steve jealousy. I hope to get around to it before Christmas...

Written as a pinch-hit for Avengersfest 2016:

Carter's Eleven
“Have no fear, Director,” Zola said in primly satisfied accents. “I assure you that there is no one person who can make a difference to Thursday’s events.”

I angsted a lot about this story - what to change, what to keep, how to rewrite the timeline and the scenes reasonably to give the women the opportunity to shine as they are, not just slotted into the appropriate character positions. This may not be the Carter's Eleven I originally envisioned, but it one works better in-canon, I think.

Interludes With Jaeger Pilots
Maria Hill, Pepper Potts, and the questions of war, friendship, and love, in the battle against the Kaiju.

Second part of a story in a series about an MCU Pacific Rim universe. Maria & Pepper focused, although this one has background Pepper/Tony and foreground Maria/Steve.

From [personal profile] theladyscribe: You know that meme that goes around sometimes where you post your five favorite kinks and then five favorite couples, and it's like a wish into the universe to see if anybody will write it for you? Let's make it a little more interactive.

Comment here if you want to play, and I will give you 3-6 couples or characters that I associate with you, and you make an entry in your journal talking about those couples/characters and fics that you wish the universe would write for you.


She gave me: Steve/Maria, Mako/Raleigh, and Tony/Pepper.

Dream big, right?
