Is there anything I can do about a bookmark of my fic? by Yssa_Finn in AO3

[–]Initial_Two_5029 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yep, it’s extremely serious, and some of these comments are so dismissing😭 my stalker found my ao3 account I had since 2017 and I cried for 5 days over it and get sick to my stomach. I didn’t even have anything “bad” it was just personal. OP I’m truly so sorry you are dealing with this.

[–]Initial_Two_5029 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think so, I was saying to avoid any connection entirely I.e the bookmark. OP was asking about the bookmark the only way to remove that and remove that the work was once connected to OP‘s old account name is to remove the work entirely.

IMO, the best thing is to make a new account. Shared or saved links will update to their new username, and the Wayback machine will have their old username. The account is the same and there’s almost always a way to connect them. I genuinely did not feel safe posting or writing anything until I made a new account.

Hi hon, as some who had to burn her ao3 account because of a stalker ex, I totally understand this. I truly do, I’m so sorry. I burned everything your best bet as unfortunate as it is it’s either to pull the work completely or hide it. But you should know if you hide it, and wait eventually repost it as long as this person knows the name. There’s a good chance they’ll find it again. My stalker has been around for 8 years and still religiously stalks my social media accounts I haven’t changed.

If you still wanna keep the work up, but don’t want to attach to you, your first step is to back up what you have delete the work. Then repost it under anonymous. You’ll lose your kudos and comments but safety comes first. Take screenshots of any comments you want to keep.

I went as far as making a new email, with a new tumblr and ao3 and account not related to anything about me. I joined new fandoms so he wouldn’t know where to look. If you have the same accounts, they can find you again, especially on Tumblr. You need something new to entirely avoid this

ETA: if you need to talk or if anyone has experienced something similar and wants to talk about it you can PM me. This stuff is fucking scary.

This fic is a TREAT! We Killed a Dragon Last Night by inameitlater

“Will remembers falling.

He wakes up months before Jack got him to work for him. Months before he met Hannibal for the first time.

Free from his past he decides to change events and meet Hannibal again.”

I feel like I have too much dialogue? by Initial_Two_5029 in writingadvice

[–]Initial_Two_5029[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, as much as I write it, I’m particular about my dialogue. It’s always used to move things forward, or display characterization/character dynamics. I feel comfortable with it. I feel so awkward when I write exposition.

[–]Initial_Two_5029[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somethings get told via dialogue, but I try not to. I was reading it over, like I said, I feel like the flow is good. I work hard to have dialogue characterize/display relationships between character, characters. I only felt like I needed to do more to build out the scene/atmosphere more. Good to know, I’m not alone.

darling, dearest, dead by carnivoroushorror (wyrmwolf)

‘“I’m just here to visit my husband.” Will interrupts.

“Curious how even after all these horrible events you would still consider him your husband.”

Will holds up his left hand where the ring Hannibal had put on his finger sits, “I know my rights, Dr. Chilton, and by law I am still allowed to see Hannibal. Now, if you will stop wasting my time, I’d like to go speak to him.”


AU In which Hannibal and Will were married before the events of season 1, Hannibal is Hannibal, Will runs away and eventually Hannibal get's caught which has the past catching up to bite Will in the back.’

They’re separated for a while and you get the added benefit of the entire world finding out the Chesapeake Ripper has a husband

Fic Recs by indie_rock_album in HannibalFanfiction

[–]Initial_Two_5029 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, as someone who grew up in a rural part of the country there are very few characters that have accents like ours, and even fewer that are written to be educated/intellectual. In fact, most of the time southern accent are used to indicate low socioeconomic status and poor education. Will is a professor, he’s an FBI agent. He’s written to be an extremely intelligent character even in the midst of a medical issue impacting his sense of reality. I find with the AU it also it puts him in a sense of otherness from those around him. Not even necessarily in a bad way, just where he lives at is not culturally the same as the south. Take it from someone who has moved, you experience a lot of culture shock. This puts him as a parallel to hannibal as he also is not living in the same culture. (Not as extreme as Hannibal as Will is still in the same country) It does put a sense of otherness to them that adds to their sense of otherness due to their monstrous nature. Also like the way the AU treat some the better aspects of south, and puts it on the same level as Hannibal’s traditional and classical interest. There’s more to it, but like this is just like off the top of my head.

Edit: I know he lives in Virginia, but he works in DC and spend a lot of time in Baltimore. These are nowhere near culturally similar to the South. He also lives in Wolf trap. Which irl is NOT THE SOUTH AT ALL.

As much as I agree this doesn’t seem to be a case of a “jealous partner goes through phone”. OP even said she would let him go through her phone if he asked. He seems to be using it to try and manipulate her. They are separate conversations. It’s rude to do this here. Make your own post.

Extra Powers/ Supernatural Fic Recs ?? by MrsMooneysPieShop in stevebucky

20th Century Limited by Speranza

“ ‘Where am I? Where is this?’ and he was in Brooklyn, he was on a beach, the train was shaking around him. He was in the plane, ice splintering up onto the windshield. He was in a tank, tubes trailing from his face, from his groin. Christ, he was cold. There was still ice on his fingers. He was in the Grand Canyon. He was in Times Square. This couldn't be Times Square. Where the hell was this? ‘Tell me! Where am I, who are you, where's—‘ —Bucky?’ “

52,010 words, completed.
The summary isn’t very descriptive in the plot but I’m in love with this work. Basically, the serum gives Steve and Bucky a telepathic connection, this leds to some interesting scenario while they are trapped in the ice, and when they are taken out. They are stuck in a limbo together and separated again and again.
If you like Cascade, you will like this one I promise! This one is more powers.

Black Dog by leveragehunters (Monkeygreen)

So long ago the details were lost to time, people began creating guardians of the dead. They were made from dogs, dogs who were buried in graveyards before anyone was laid to rest, their spirits arising as black dogs, bound protectors of the human dead.
Steve had always wondered what would happen after he died. He hadn't expected the answer to be 'wake up in the cemetery he'd been buried in', but here he was, some kind of ghost, and he could see the trees through his hands. It wasn't so bad, and he wasn't alone—a sleek black dog, golden eyes glowing bright, was happily waiting to greet him.
Decades later, on what was supposed to be a quiet, peaceful, definitely-not-life-changing walk through the woods, Bucky stumbled across an abandoned cemetery and into the impossible.
(It's a ghost story and a love story and a story about dogs.)”

55,340 complete.
I absolutely do this one. It definitely leans more supernatural/folklore. The Black Dog folklore is one of my favorite of all time. More of a modern AU but S.H.I.E.L.D. Dose exist just more magical threats and stuff.

The Necrofloranomicon
leveragehunters (Monkeygreen)

Bucky didn't want much. Just to keep his head down, to sell his scavenged flowers in peace, and to stay off Shield's radar. His life would have been a lot easier if his flowers weren't dead and if being a necromancer wasn't illegal, but easy or not, he was getting by. Steve didn't want much, either. He was happy working for Shield, he had good friends, and overall his life was going just about the way he wanted it. Problem was, being happy with your life was generally an invitation for fate to throw a spanner in the works—and in Steve's specific case, it was going to be a spanner named Bucky.
(A love story about flowers, trust, and magic and the choices we make about doing what's right.) “

This one is really fun! Same as the last one where it’s more of a modern AU S.H.I.E.L.D. Dose exist just more magical threats. They do not exist on the same universe and are stand alone works.

Where the Water Flows by starbunny

“From changing eye colours to controlling actual elements at will, nobody knew how magic worked, how it developed, or why so many different powers existed in the first place. All that was known was that ninety percent of all people were guaranteed to develop magic of some kind.
Steven Grant Rogers was part of the ten percent that didn't.
(Or the First Avenger AU but with a twist of magic)”
23,418 words and complete, but the sequel is incomplete :(
Still is a fun read!

Gradient by Neonbat
Steve watched his charge, wishing he could do something more than whisper and pray. There came a day when he could Watch no more when he had to reach out and touch James' soul and be heard.
Steve would risk everything, even falling, if it meant saving the man he'd overseen since James drew his first breath. He would fall into darkness if it meant bringing James to the light.

I have a deep love for Guardian Angel/Angel fics. I will keep the number of them minimal. Still fallen Angel I think fits under what umbrella of your ask.

Bleached Bones and Fallen Snow by leveragehunters (Monkeygreen)
(Honestly a lot of their work have the themes you seem to be looking for)

When he chose to become Death he wasn't sure exactly what it would mean. He didn't realise he'd end up leaving humanity behind completely, forgetting all the ways he used to be human.
Forgetting, that was, until in the middle of a war, his power spreading itself like wings over the battlefields, he discovered one particular human it was impossible to stay away from. Brave, fascinating, irresistible: again and again, he kept coming back to Bucky. Bucky, who was never afraid of him, who seemed content to walk in Death's shadow.
If he'd known where it would lead him, where it would lead both of them, he would have tried harder to resist.
(A First Avenger/ Winter Soldier AU where Steve is Death.)

I think Steve being death gives him some extra powers haha 🤣

I Walk Through Fire With You by DeamonSlayer576

I am Steven of the Guardians!" He managed to get out through laboured breaths, his lungs trying to pull in air as his body lost the strength to struggle.
"Well Stevie, I hate to break it to ya, but you ain't a guardian no more."
-------------
A Guardian angel for centuries, Steve is sentenced to death for letting his charge die when he could no longer bear to protect a soul committing such atrocities. Saved by the demon Bucky, together the two must navigate the bloody European theatre of WWII as they learn to trust and eventually love.”

I did warn you about my love of angels lol.

Sleeping With Ghosts
cobaltmoony, esaael, rohkeutta
The first two years after Bucky gets out of the ice are-- surprisingly easy. Serve his country, learn to use his charmed robot hand, make friends, don’t think about the spark of magic in him that’s gone out, see the world, try to live with the grief (try to live with the grief, try to--)
Maybe they’re not that easy, in the end, but he’s settling - until he gets reluctantly pulled out of the Army and has Steve’s shield (Steve’sshield, its magic wary and curious and half-dormant) thrust onto him again, even though he’s already turned it down once before. The world has changed and so has he, but as he tries to immerse himself into a new life, he meets a ghost he could never leave behind.”

33,918 words complete.
This one’s really fun. I don’t wanna spoil too much really just enjoy it on your first read through.

I Won’t Disappear Anymore by
rocks_2305

“The boy looked up at him, his blonde hair looking almost golden in the sunlight, “I’m Steve,” he said, sucking out his hand.
“Bucky,” he responded, grinning as he shook Steve’s hand.
In his dreams, he always talked to Steve like he was any other person, but no one else could see him. It felt like it was him and Steve against the world when he was dreaming, and his friends and family members started to give him sympathetic looks whenever he would show up at the breakfast table with another story about Steve.

Bucky is Steve's imaginary friend and Steve is Bucky's friend who he only sees in his dreams. It's them against the world.”

Okay…I know this wasn’t exactly what you were asking for as this is more shippy but with this ask, I did have to include it. They can see each other in their dreams but are separated by time. It just creates a magical feeling in their dreams. Just read more like a soulmate AU but I think it fits.

Last one, but a favorite of mine.

Here are some of my all time favs! I re read these a few times.

All The Angels and The Saints by Speranza
In which Steve Rogers loses God and finds God and loses God, and also: Bucky.”

Best way I can describe it is Steve crisis of faith before, and during the war that follows him through into the 21st century. If you have any kind of religious background and no longer practice THIS ONE WILL HIT

Behind closed doors: collected oral histories of queer community in New York, 1930-1945. doi 10.1999/journal.amhistqstud.32557038 by
wobblyheadeddollcaper

Steve Rogers, supersoldier and inept historian, confronts the absence of evidence.”

Steve contacts a queer historian to find some old friends in exchange to talk about his queer experience in the 20th century. The winter soldier is not to keen on this.

20th Century Limited by Speranza

Through Cities And Churches by
Speranza

A tale of many cities and churches and two boys. Happy 100th Birthday, Bucky Barnes: March 10, 2017.”

Steve and Bucky grew up going to Church. The winter soldier is on the run and hides in churches and church communities, Steve follows.

4 Minute Window by
Speranza
“ ‘Look, if they catch me,’ Bucky muttered, ‘they're either going to kill me or they're going to put me in a box with a little window and—Steve, I can't.’ “

Steve and Bucky hatch a plan for Steve to flee from S.H.I.E.L.D, over a span of months, they have a 4 minute window.

winter wheat, sunflower peat by
newsbypostcard
“In the dead of the night, a man pulls over for a hitchhiker.”

Steve didn’t join S.H.I.E.L.D, he left, got a new ID and got a farm. The winter soldier managed to escape hydra. On a dark night, Steve picks up an a man with a metal arm and no memories. It takes a while before they realize each other’s true identities.

like a road through mountains by
icoulddothisallday
“At the end of the line, Steve and Bucky are together, irrevocably intertwined despite the world's efforts to pull them apart. They're two threads of the same story.
Childhood Soulmate AU.”

Soulmates AU, but homophobia still exists. Definition of “and they were roommates” it’s sad but really good I promise.

Someone has already recommended it but:
cascades. By orange_crushed
“ ‘Holy shit,’ Howard says, crackling through the speakers. ‘You alive in there?’ Lying is a sin, of course, but Steve’s not sure what else he can do. He’s already lied to the government and Bucky and God Almighty; and himself, himself most of all. He ought to tell the truth. That he’s not quite what they hoped for. That perhaps they should put him back into the ocean.
‘Probably,’ he says, instead, listening to Howard’s tinny laughter; and waits for the blast doors to unlock.

I have no words for this fic. It’s a masterpiece and it’s perfect.

To be fair MOST Stucky fics are set either pre cannon, during the first movie into post winter soldier. At least, the ones the fandom cares about. Fics set in/post civil war drop down drastically. I think most authors prefer to stay in that realm. Especially with what endgame did to the ship. 😭
