what you see a lot in fandom is it reaches this threshold where it's just. the characters don't matter, it's not about the stories, it's just about white dudes banging. i've been in a lot of bigger fandoms like that (merlin OH MERLIN jesus you were the worst)

I have read het sex like that - that was so boring and by the numbers that I skipped it (in romance novels, as well as fanfic, which is just like...come on, published authors, up your game.)

i don't actually know what the point of my ramble was, tbh, but we can both agree that there should be more great steve/darcy on ao3, y/y?


Fuck yes. I'm trying to find some Steve/Darcy is not wildly ooc that I haven't read before and it's.... pretty damn impossible, atm.
