hathycolFLY BY NIGHT FIC RECOMMENDATIONS.
1. When You Wake by sevenfoxes. Live. Die. Repeat. Steve learns to navigate a life where his death resets time, robbing memories from those around him, changing the course of his constantly rewriting history.
It's an Edge of Tomorrow/MCU mashup and it's bloody amazing. I went into it basically expecting nothing and came out a whimpering mess, staring ashen faced at fellow commuters, resisting the urge to grab one of them and shout "JUST HOLD ME, FOR LIFE IS BUT NOTHINGNESS".
I am maybe not selling this. Seriously, just... read it.
2. Middletown: A Study of Surburban Life by M_Leigh. Or: the story of the year Bucky Barnes finally learned how to talk to at least one other human being, discovered J. D. Salinger, started to try in school (kind of), got a haircut, landed a punch, almost got arrested, and kissed a boy on the mouth.
The thing is, right, I don't really like High School AUs because I'm not American, didn't like high school, and I like it when they have superpowers. This is... not really MCU fic, I think. It could be any high school, albeit with an EXCELLENT cameo from the Red Skull. And that doesn't matter. It's just a beautiful, wonderful story. Read it even if you don't like Marvel, or slash, or fanfiction. Just... enjoy.
FICREC NINJA, BOOM. *scurries away*
