Yet Something Made Him See You And Go, 'Yes, Give Me The One Who Falls Off Of Things And Walks Into Walls.

Yet something made him see you and go, 'Yes, give me the one who falls off of things and walks into walls’.

How can you not fall in love with a fic which contains a line like that! 

quixotic | Poe Dameron x Reader

A/N: Ah, hopefully this is as cute as I attempted to make it! Quixotic means exceedingly idealistic; unrealistic and impractical. It seemed fitting for such a sweet thing!

Rating: T.

Warning: Falling. Drunkenness. Sexual references. Brief, vague mention of the Star Wars equivalent of a spider if that exists?

Word count: 2,454 is what I’m getting so!

Prompt: “Is this a habit of yours? Falling off of stuff?”

“Only when you’re there to catch me.” (as requested by an anon from this list of Disney prompts)

You were sure you would never forget the first time you had an actual interaction with Poe outside of commands and polite acknowledgement of each other’s existence.

It was equal parts embarrassing and sweet. And a little romantic, though you weren’t going to say that out loud.

You had just gotten back from a mission, climbing out of your ship, helmet off and tucked under your arm, moving towards the ladder. What you hadn’t realized was that you had brought back part of some slimy plant from a planet on the bottom of your boot, which caused you to slip and go flailing towards the floor.

Your helmet clattered to the cement and you closed your eyes in preparation to do the same thing. How many bruises were you going to get from this? Enough to make flying to your next mission very painful, you were sure.

However, rather than feeling the hard ground against your all-too-human body, you felt something that must have been a person’s arms.

“You that excited to see me? It hasn’t been that long since we left the planet.”

Shout Out Sunday - Week 2:

I had a hard time deciding which imaginary boyfriend to indulge myself in this weekend. Poe? Bucky? Steve Rogers? In the end I figured screw it and dove into the GIGANTIC library that is @propertyofpoeandbucky‘s masterlists!

First, let me say I’m bias here (though I am for everyone that has been/will be featured here cuz they’re all amazing). @propertyofpoeandbucky never fails to perk up a bad day for me. First of all, the freaking tagline on her account: you cannot escape de poe always leaves me in stitches and with Oscar Issac’s voice in my head - what a freaking way to start! Second she is basically the queen of AUs, as such she manages to cover most of my favorite tropes with my favorite boys. 

I can’t even begin to name a favorite because I’ll feel as though I’ll be betraying her other work, but for those curious I’m going to have say for Poe:  

Dare you not to grin AU: Pour Some Sugar On Me

Holy sexy hell AU: Fashion Baby

Heartstrings tug AU: Bring Her Back*

*Note that I’ve begged for a follow up on this one and it hasn’t happened, but the begging shall continue!

For Bucky:

Dare you not to love this one: The Princess Project (Mini-Series)

All the angst: Match Made in Heaven

*happy sigh*: Will You?

For Steve:

All the fluff AU: You and Me Together (Mini-Series)

She also has a ton of other characters and fandoms she writes for, kinda a one stop shop here and I adore her for it <3

Hands down, easily one of the best ongoing series out there. The first two chapters killed me and the third and fourth had twists I never saw coming. @ofheroesandvillains thank you for sharing this with the world <3

I Needed You (4) - Bucky Barnes

Words: 3.2k Warnings: Violence, maybe…yeah actually, violence.  Summary: 2 unexpected phone calls, and someone gets beaten up.

(the gif won’t come up for some reason, I’ll add it later)

Bucky took a sip of his water as his pale gaze roamed the street absentmindedly. It had been over an hour and so far everything looked fine. No shady figures, no suspicious cars…no threat besides the screeching toddler three tables away that was threatening to burst his eardrum.

For the umpteenth time that day, his eyes settled on the beautiful woman in red. He smiled for the first time in what felt like years. You never wore bright colours before, they were too obvious, they drew too much attention. If there was one thing you knew not to do, it was draw attention. He suspected the red long-sleeved dress was more Pepper’s idea than your own, but he mentally praised the woman for her input.

All The Hugs

I wanted to take a second to thank some of the lovely folks I’ve met in the past few months as I’ve delved into various fandoms. I say “some of the lovely folks” because it would be impossible to name each and every person who has in some way helped brighten my days. 

The last few months have been particularly hard, I’m burned out and most days I feel like I struggle to stay afloat. My anxiety is frequently in full swing, I have concerns about my health in general and to top it all off, my grandmother, who raised me from the age of 10 (and who I was completely attached to before that), has been suffering from some memory problems. They could be biological, they could be side effects from her medications or her health conditions - we’re not sure. We live together and so I’ve found myself either trying to focus at work or I’m home dealing with strange questions all the while feeling like an asshat for not being a better person. 

tumblr and AO3 have both become little sanctuaries for me. Sometimes I don’t get to follow along in series I adore, or read the newest fic by one of my favorite authors. I try and find time to binge read and catch up but it isn’t always easy. All that said, I just wanted to thank each and every person - tagged or not - for helping to create a place I can escape in for at least a little while. For sharing your amazing talents with the world. For being sweet and funny and so smart.

Bad News Badger...

Shout Out Sunday is being postponed due to a migraine which has haunted me all weekend. Bad News Badger sucks :( 

I won’t be around on Tumblr until midday Friday in an attempt to prevent *Avengers: Infinity War* from being spoiled (either accidentally or intentionally). Tumblr spoiled White Wolf for me a few months ago and I don’t want to have it happen again. 

I will try and stay up on my direct messages on here -- I should be able to avoid spoilers to do so, but if you want to be 100% certain to get ahold of me on my AO3 account: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Cathain_Baldwin/profile

See you in about 35 hours!
