meteordustSo I was planning to watch it eventually, since I'm following the Marvel movies, but I had so much other viewing to get through, maybe I could just rent the DVD later or something? But then a fic or two got recced my way, I read them, and suddenly it became VERY IMPORTANT to go see this movie as soon as possible.
Some people who said it better than I could:
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
a kid from brooklyn
The Tragedy of Bucky Barnes
And, uh, I might have spent the fortnight since mainlining fic, catching up on reaction posts, and looking up interviews - but mostly mainlining fic. I don't think I've read through so many tens of thousands of words since XMFC. Most of my recent activity has been in small fandoms, so it's a giddy feeling to be so spoiled for choice.
In XMFC, the deluge of fic was inspired by the need for fix-it fic, after the beach divorce. In CATWS, I think something similar is at work, with everyone wanting to bring Bucky in from the cold and hug him better.
