Fandom Snowflake, Day 6
Jan. 9th, 2017 07:39 amBacktracking this morning because I finally thought of answers to this one...
Day 06
In your own space, create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your wish-list if you feel comfortable doing so. Maybe someone will grant a wish. Check out other people's posts. Maybe you will grant a wish. If any wishes are granted, we'd love it if you link them to this post.
1. Fan art of Steve & Bucky that isn't romantic Stucky. The Captain America fandom seems to be about 98% stucky shippers and as someone for whom that's a NOTP, it's kind of a lonely feeling when you see hundreds of professional-level art works created for stucky but there's really not much for brotherhood/platonic Steve & Bucky. I think I'm pretty much screaming into the void with this one, but a girl can hope.
2. Any fic that characterizes Bucky as inherently strong and on the mend, even if he has moments or stretches of time where he's weak and overwhelmed. I like fics that show him making progress toward the hero/Avenger he eventually becomes in the comics. So many fics have him stuck at woobie. *sigh*
These next two aren't exactly fan-created wishes but my top fannish wishes nonetheless:
3. An end to HYDRA!Cap in the comics and personal apologies from Nick Spencer and whatever cabal of Marvel higher-ups who signed off on such a thing to all fans of Steve Rogers everywhere who are appalled at the character assassination that has ensued in the comics side of Marvel. And in the meantime, FIX IT FICS for this travesty.
4. An end to ship wars in every fandom. They're so stupid and ridiculous and immature.
