You know you are having an odd day when reading random Katara/Zuko fic on ff.net seems like a good idea.

Note to self: Self, It is not a good idea. It is nearly never a good idea. no love, me.

Score one for my poor decision-making skills. And yet, I keep hoping to find what I'm looking for.

It's like reading Max/Alec - you hit one good story and you think there MUST be others, and then you read a metric fuckton of TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE fic searching for the hidden gems. And occasionally you find them, but the damage in the meantime is pretty horrific. *weeps* #it's a sickness #fangirl problems

I did manage to write a wee Steve/Bucky blow job fic last night for the 10 in 10 September thing:

Writing My Life on Your Skin (@ AO3)
Avengers (2012); Steve/Bucky; adult; 730 words
Steve likes leaving marks on Bucky's skin.

As usual, it started with angelgazing saying something about Steve leaving grease-smears on Bucky's hips and me saying she should totally write that, and then two hours later, I had a story. I don't even know why I try to resist.

At least things are getting written, even if they're not the things I want to finish. Let's see, the WIP round-up looks like this right now:

= the Winter Soldier gets hit with sex pollen
= the one where Steve loves puppies and freedom and Russian assassins (not necessarily in that order)
= the DCU/MCU crossover where Jason helps Steve and Natasha rescue Bucky from the League of Assassins

those are the top priorities, the ones I have open in Word at any given moment. Then there's the various other Steve/Bucky ones, the Steve/Darcy fake dating, and the Steve/Natasha undercover married. Plus some other things from that trope meme I might want to flesh out. *hands* Who knows?

And I still have to figure out yuletide. I always wait to see if the stuff I want gets nommed so I can then nominate things I want to write. We'll see how it goes. Thank goodness for the folks who collate that information in easy to use spreadsheets.
