I’m just going to leave these here.
It sums up my greatest emotional struggle during Iron Man 3. This is the only part of the movie, and still is, when I felt close to tears.
Bot Feels (Dum-E and U)
I’m all over this! *looks forward to awesome artworks*

What’s been going on lately? (besides seeing Iron Man 3 in the cinemas; just came home from a fourth round ^^)
- Finished my bigbang_mixup fic.
- Got an artist for my Werewolf Big Bang fic.
- Wrote a random little piece to start my love_bingo card (and planned several more).
- My second Tentacle Big Bang fic is now in the midst of posting, and there are 8 more chapters to be revealed (so, 8 more days); check out “Redolence” at these locations.
- I’ve tried to make myself promise not to enter every big bang I come across, unless I have an actual idea, because there is a ton of new things & sequels I need to write, and… there is only so much time in the world. BUT, the summer’s drawing closer and soon I can write all day without pesky work interruptions.
Also, this:
Marvel Bang 2013 is here!
(I already signed up for this one… now I just need to figure out what to write.)

In exactly eight days, I will be sitting giddily in a dark movie theater. Any minute now, the commercials will be over, and the familiar Marvel intro will begin.
(I got my tickets for Iron Man 3 today.)
In other news, two fics have been completed for Cap/Iron Man Reverse Bang 2013. I just need to check them and have them betaed in the next few weeks. (Both of them got ridiculously long. Both of them will get follow-up stories later.)
A lot of big bangs need to be worked on, and a couple new ones lie in the horizon. I really need to take a hard look at them and be picky about which I’ll choose, because clearly I’ve over-estimated the amount of my free time. Then again, summer looms ahead, and more time for writing, so it should all be good…
I have so many great ideas in my head for new fics.
People keep asking for sequels that I need to squeeze out at some point, too.
Some old LotR fics need some polishing/re-betaing/re-posting.
But, first and foremost, my life is stuck in waiting for IM3. :D
After giving it some consideration, “February 30th” has been cancelled/deleted form my to-do list. I doubt anyone was really looking forward to that one after all this time, but I felt like putting the information out there. I don’t really have anything to give that I didn’t already accomplish in “February 29th”, and the first story stands well on its own, and I always liked its ending…
In other news, “Chitauri Apocalypse” posting wrapped up this morning. It has gathered some awesome responses from people so far, so if you’re into Avengers and some grim end-of-the-world action, I wholeheartedly invite you to check it out!
Cap/Iron Man Reverse Bang 2013 is also here, and I treated myself to two pieces of art (both super awesome & pretty). Now my own struggle is to finish two fics I have planned - and wrap them up in time. Let’s just say that with my plot outlines, completing 6k isn’t a problem. Finishing them in time is. (Thank you for the Easter holiday! I know how to use it…)
My card for love_bingo’s round 3:
No idea how much I’ll write for this…
However, linked fills can be found in these locasions when the time comes:

I just completed roughly 12k worth of porn. (There is plot in my porn, but who cares! Or, you should care especially because of that. Pick the one that hurts less :D) So, that means my Perverse Bang entry is finished. :D
In other news, I’ve had an amazing weekend. A lot of fantastically great reviews have been received for “Chitauri Apocalypse”. You people are amazing, thank you!
Also, keep an eye open for my fic response to LePeru’s fantastic mini-comic… It’s in the winds, near to completion, and might come up next week ;)
Next I’ll probably try to get the Five Times Big Bang out of the way… (Some Tony&J.A.R.V.I.S. feels in order.)
Also need to work on the final chapters of “Handling Pointy Things” and wrap that baby up.
First of all: second trailer of Iron Man 3 has been around for a few days. I’m stoked. I’m so ready. April 24th, please come sooner. (Yeah, that’s when we should get it in the theaters in Finland, and it also seems like I’m free that day, possibly the rest of the week, so I certainly know what I’m going to do with that day/rest of the week.)
In the meanwhile, if I get anywhere from obsessing over IM3, I should do some writing.
- I’ve been working on a Werewolf Big Bang fic. Already have the required 10k in hand, just need to end it. Frankly, I’m not satisfied with most of it, or where it’s headed, but hopefully someone will like it because that’s what I’m sticking with. (In other words: I can’t be bothered to rewrite half of it.)
- Need to work on both Five Times Big Bang and Perverse Bang fics. Deadlines coming and all that.
My brain is absolutely enjoying the extra sunlight that comes with the spring, because there are so many fantastic new ideas rolling around in my head, including a really solid idea for Sci-fi/Fantasy Big Bang, some dream-inspired fic, something more for Turquoise-series (thanks to the hulkbuster armor in the IM3 trailer), and today’s special thanks to a Sanctuary-episode I was watching: something vampire-related (definitely going to tackle that one if Vampire Big Bang has a round this spring).
Note-worthy stuff:
- My Apocalypse Big Bang fic, “Chitauri Apocalypse“,is gathering some very nice interest from readers. It is currently being posted on AO3, DW, FF.net and LJ. See all posting locations here (new chapter every day, until the very end!)
- With mixed feelings I’ve received news that my trusty beta-reader Mythra is becoming more available to me once more (not that she wasn’t valiantly proofreading my stuff even while she was otherwise busy, but still…). A personal loss of sorts for her, a victory for me (and you) since I’m getting more of her attention - and thus, quicker returns for already finished stories.
That was it for today… back to work, preparing for the 3-day weekend, trying to rein in my brain to do some actual writing, as stated above, and most of all… happy IM3 waiting for everyone!
To honor the fact that I have now completed (although the fics still need polishing/betaing/posting) a bingo for my trope_bingo card, I signed up for three big bangs.
*facepalms*
I have some others still lined up, plus the deadlines for these are later this year, BUT signing up is part of commitment, right?
Before tackling these, there are other things I will try to get out of the way…
I have so far finished 4 out of 5 entries for a trope_bingo line.
Fifth square, “fusion”, is ready to give me a writer’s block. (Not really, but… it’s bad.)
For one, I’m still trying to grasp the difference between a fusion and a crossover. All the ideas I’ve come up with for a 500 words-or-more fic are most likely crossover than a fusion. I have a limited knowledge of fandoms I could actually mix (and be capable of writing), and none of them click in a way that would be a fusion.
I still have a few months to come up with something, but I would rather have it out of the way. Oh well… maybe I won’t get that bingo after all :/
(Or I come up with something. Either or.)
Ideas, anyone? I would love to use The Avengers as one half of the fusion.
ETA: when you least expect it, good ideas come to you. Prepare thyselves for a fusion with The Matrix!
- Working on my first line bingo on my trope_bingo card.
- 2/5 written (soul bonding & secret child), working on a third (kidfic). None of them are exactly short… which is why it’s taking time to write them :/ The kidfic alone is crossing 10k as we speak, but it’s going to be pretty good.
“Handling Pointy Things” got a few new chapters added to it (two were my own idea to add more angst into it all, a third inspired by a comment asking for more sexy dreams from Bruce. Who am I to say ‘no’ to that request?) Completed by second Tentacle Big Bang fic (as in, got it all checked and sent it to my beta). Now I just have to hand both in and all will be swell.
And then some big bang promotion:

(For the record, I had no idea what ABO trope was until a few months ago. I’m still researching since I’m kind of getting into it, due to a few good fics and some interesting themes. - Del)
Signed up for Perverse Bang. I even have a fic planned for it.
In other news, I’m re-watching The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes like there’s no tomorrow - and somewhere in there I decided to write an epic Steve/Tony fic - which has now turned to an idea for a series rather than one longish story. It will be called “Amaranthine”.
This is a big weekend for posting:
- yesteday featured “Dark Iron” (written with Nikki6 for Kink Big Bang), an Iron Man & Batman crossover
- later today I will post “The Core” - a porny, slightly kinky Avengers fic (also for Kink Big Bang)
I have several chapters ready for posting for “Handling Pointy Things”. Once my schedule clears, you’ll have new stuff from that fic.
Completed the 10-chapter fic for Tentacle Big Bang as well, so I have two stories “finished” for that bb.
What to do next, then?
- I could write some thank you-fic for my beta. (Kind of started something but might erase that and start over.)
- I should come up with something amazingly fitting for this breathtaking art by LePeru…
- I could complete “Handling Pointy Things”.
- I might start on “Amaranthine” - but I think I’ll finish watching season two of AEMH and then make final notes about what I want to include from the series - and how to proceed from where the show ended.
So many choices and it feels like I have time to do it all - which is good, believe me. Now that the pressing deadlines are behind me, I can just enjoy writing without the pressure of finishing in time ^^
Because there is never enough kinky porn… right?
A multi-fandom exercise in perversity Signups begin Saturday, February 2, 2013
