not language but a map

shitifindon replied to your post: if you don’t look around once in awhile:

was there a footnote at the end there??? where is that footnote i want that footnote (also adjfsrthsgh ilu)

oh shit, YES THANK YOU, i did not realize it had cut off and i have added it back :D 

shitifindon asked: I feel like I remember someone writing a Pepper Potts/War story. Was this you? If it wasn't you, what are your feelings on it? (If it WAS you, what are your feelings on it?)

THAT WAS ME :D The story is called Viva La; Pepper is the grown up version of Pepper from Good Omens, and Natasha is War. MY FEELINGS ON THAT STORY ARE NOW AND WILL FOREVER BE THAT IT WAS ONE THE FUNNEST WRITING EXPERIENCES EVER, oh man. So much fun. All the crossovers forever and ever amen. 

GODDDDDDDD

okay AFTER the fifteen incredibly awkward minutes where derek is like, “i [glare], uh [glare], do you think you could [glare], NOT THAT I NEED YOUR HELP OR ANYTHING [glare], but if you might have some suggestions [glare], about certain things of the romantic variety [glare], WHICH I CERTAINLY WILL NOT BE APPLYING TO ANYONE SPECIFIC AND DON’T ACTUALLY NEED AT ALL [glare glare glare glare]” and steve is like, “i, uh, i might not be the right person to ask, [blush], are you sure you don’t want me to get natasha [blush], i could be really helpful on any number of other topics, have you ever thought about reorganizing your pack’s battle structure into a different formation, that’s probably more important than….than romance [blush]” and they both STARE AT NEARBY WALLS WONDERING HOW TO ESCAPE THIS CONVERSATION

i actually think steve and derek would end up talking about how the only way to have a healthy relationship is to go into it trying not to carry the losses of your past with you. like, i think that’s the romantic advice steve would give ANYONE, because he’s never forgotten peggy, never forgotten those years when he thought bucky was dead; i think steve roger’s standard romantic advice would be be “put yourself out there because you never know when you’re not going to get another chance, and try not to let your past drag you down.” but obviously THAT WOULD HIT MUCH HARDER FOR DEREK THAN IT WOULD FOR MOST PEOPLE, and i totally think they’d end up bonding about it and like, having a heart to heart or at very least a heart to glare-and-occasional-speech. 

IT DOESN’T POP UP UNTIL THE SHOW STARTS, WHICH IS RIIIIIIGHT NOW
