This was an idea that hit me on one of my daily walks and formed too well for me to not write it. If anyone wants to take a pass on reading this one, of course, I'll understand.

Title: Healers
Fandom: Iron Fist/Defenders
Characters: Colleen, Claire
Disclaimer: Hey, the rights are reverted back now for both these two.
Warning: The pandemic, also the Blip, with one permanent minor character death
Note: I have headcanons about what happened with the Netflix characters during the Blip, mostly involving Wong gathering everyone left in New York to work together during it, and that has a heavy influence on this.

( They probably all have a patient selected for her, hoping she shows up. They know she doesn't like to chose herself. )

Title: Habeas for Superheroes
Part: 10: An Inquiry Involving the Punisher
Fandom: Daredevil/Defenders
Characters: Matt/Foggy, Karen, Frank, Malcolm, Marci, Jennifer
Disclaimer: Now Disney owns them.
Warning: References to violence and murder
Note: Third installment in my Femme!Foggy series.

( It was all so ideal it gave Foggy the ominous feeling that someone was going to waiting for them in their apartment again. )

Like every other American woman, this was not an easy week for me, with my depression flaring up something awful these past few days. Hell, there were moments when my thoughts went suicidal, which makes me extremely glad I'm writing this series: for the moment, I need to stick around to finish it. And I even believe I'll be allowed to, though if the Democrats don't gain at least one half of Congress back, I'm not sure what the ultimately fate for the U.S.'s austistic population will be. Finished this one early yesterday, then spent much of the rest of the day rewriting it.

Current Mood: sad

Had the idea right after seeing Infinity War of writing a bunch of fics of how the various surviving women coped with the mess, because that's what surviving women have done throughout history. At the time I was too busy writing "Even If We're Just Dancing in the Dark," and I finally decided to wait until after I'd seen Ant-Man and the Wasp, especially since I had the idea it would kill at least one specific character. Now that I have, here's the first of them:

( Jessica Jones, One Hour Later )

Spent the last few days in New York City. I went to the US Open, saw Wicked, and took bus tours. It was the best vacation I've had in a long while.
I also found the time to write two short fics, the first Defenders-based:

( Moments That the Words Don't Reach )

Finished watching Defenders yesterday morning, and have since been catching up on everything everyone's written since. Adds an extra emotional omph to the experience of watching the thing, really. Although then while I was eating dinner and listening to the song shuffle on my iPad, "It's Quiet Uptown" came up, and I was suddenly fighting back tears. There's already one response fic I'm pretty sure I'm going to write that's going to get its title from there. Might write it tomorrow.
Or I might write it during the upcoming holiday in New York. I'm taking a handful of days to go up there, spend a day at the US Open, hopefully see a Broadway show, and just get away. The timing's unfortunate in a couple of ways, especially because I won't get the chance to blog about the new Dancing with the Stars cast, though if it has any Trump cast-offs I won't mind too much. Hopefully they'll at least have the basic sense not to invite any undisputed Nazis like Bannon.
Then again, that whole scene's just getting more and more painful. He pardons the evil sheriff today. He'll probably pardon the guy in Charlottesville if he's convicted too.

Mom just got back from a weeklong trip in Scotland. It's been a weird week for me, all in all. Though I must admit, I've been having a better one than most of the world. Wednesday evening was especially a highlight, when my fourth date with my current guy had him coming over here for dinner and watching The Martian. The cats did not have a good week, though. Ian was so put out he kept throwing up all over the place. Having a stranger come into the house sent him fleeing to the back. Clarissa eventually came up to meet him, though.
Decided to watch one episode of Defenders a day so as to finish before going to New York. Except it seems everyone else has watched through it now, when I'm still only three episodes in! I hadn't even started the second episode before I was spoiled for the biggest thing at the end by a fanfic summary; I eventually went and looked the details up to dispel my anxiety, and now I'm having a very placid watching experience, much more so than while watching previous Marvel Netflix series. At least that allows me to enjoy it more.
Unfortunately I failed to get eclipse glasses, though I spent much of the weekend looking. It seems you had to get them early.

The eve of the fourth and I feel like we're heading towards a reckoning, especially with the monsters in power getting more and more blatant in abusing their power and trying to intimidate people who would vote them out to keep them away from the polls. I've got a foreboding something terrible is going to happen tomorrow. I'm certainly not going out the celebrate; I wouldn't feel like doing that anyway. If I do live many more years and have my choice about it, I think I shall spend all these fourths just watching Wimbledon.
Wrote most of a smutpiece tonight for a

daredevilkink prompt. We'll see if I'm in a state and/or a mood to finish it tomorrow, though I suspect it'll ultimately go up Wednesday even if I do. Then I'll see if we make it to the dropping of The Defenders. If Mike Colter is telling the truth about it being lighter than the individual serieses, I suspect I won't mind much.
Be nice if we could make it too this weekend, anyway. Mom just bought us tickets for an Art Garfunkel concert in the Kennedy Center Saturday night; I think there were dropping prices. Think we won't be going to the beach after all, so I'll be free to see Spiderman Sunday.
Even some booming noises outside my window tonight, but individual fireworks on the 3rd are all too typical, even though they're illegal here in Alexandria. Nothing loud enough to even bother the cats yet, as far as I can tell.

Mom has officially gotten permission to do a "literary biography" of Winston Graham. It'll be heavy of the "literary" and light on the "biography," but his writings have always been her interest. She read and blogged about the Poldark books long before this new TV series came out. This also means she'll be spending a month in Britain sometime this summer reading up on the relevant documents. I'm not sure she's been away from home for that long since she and dad were married. That'll be an interesting month for the both of us.
For some reason I'm getting a bunch of messages from OkCupid tonight, including a rude one, one from a guy a little too far south, and one from a guy in India! Does anyone ever seriously manage to form anything through OkCupid with anyone who lives on the other side of the planet? Not something I'm up to, I'm afraid. I also got one from a guy who spends most of his time in Dubai, but at least he spoke of traveling to DC occasionally (I wrote a response, but I think my opinion on Dubai offended him, because he hasn't written since).
Now that I'm done with Iron Fist, I'm all ready for The Defenders to come out. Or maybe it can wait until I finish that Karen writing obituaries fic I've been working on. Looking forward way too much to The Punisher too, although at least, unlike Iron Fist it's not pushing any new seasons of the other four series back to a later premiere date than they'd otherwise have. Seriously, do we have to have a second season of that one?
