Rules: post the first and last lines of the last 10 fics you posted.
Thank you for tagging me @auofgoldandfantasies !
I'm skipping Podfics for this. Also a fair warning, I did a dump of Oneshots I found, so there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to what I've posted recently and there is some smut in between. Also I am realising there are some other warnings that I added next to the title.
I - Not how this was supposed to work (WIP)
First: Foggy Nelson had never been a scaredy-cat. In general, he wasn’t afraid of a lot of things. He wasn’t scared of going to the doctor or the dentist, and he wasn’t afraid of the dark, spiders, heights, or the boogie man either.
Last: “I think it just might,” Karen answered, smiling softly. “They might not become friends, but they might make okay roommates.”
II - Ten out of Ten (MCD Warning)
First: Matt got the call from the hospital while he was in class.
Last: It was only when Foggy rested a soft, almost brotherly hand on his friend’s shoulder that he realised Matt wasn’t frozen, he was crying.
III - When the World is too much, you are my Bubble
Note: This one is a collection of ficlets for two OCs I came up with, so the first and the last line do not belong to the same story.
First: “Is it beautiful?” Jamie asked, closing her eyes as she leaned against G’s side and enjoyed the warmth of the sun on this day in early spring.
Last: “That’s cute,” Jamie hummed, then started laughing. “Buck and my Dad met when my dad was being an idiot and Buck stopped him from running in front of a car or something.” She laughed again. “Honestly, every time you ask them they give you a different story.”
IV - Of Soup, Flowers and Tattoos (WIP)
First: “Every flower has a meaning, you know?” Foggy was leaning on the counter of ‘Sweet and Spicy’, when the restaurant had a quiet moment. He was watching the guy working in the small flower shop across the street from their soup café. “Every type of flower, every colour, and even the way they are arranged can tell whole stories.”
Last: “Yes, Clint.” Matt chuckled softly. “Bucky and you own a Tattoo Studio. I would be surprised if you didn’t have Tattoos and piercings.” He traced Clint’s neck again, smiling as the other man leaned in again. “I just don’t know which ones and what they look like, so I was a little surprised when I suddenly had two pieces of metal in my mouth.” He licked his own lips, then traced his thumb over Clint’s again, pulling softly at one of the black metal rings. “I don’t mind. Actually, I quite like it.” He smirked, signing slowly with one hand still cupping Clint’s jaw. “It’s wild and interesting, just like you.”
V - Just let yourself have this (Smut Warning)
First: “Hello, handsome.” A low, rich voice, laced with an English accent approached Clint.
Last: Charles simply brushed a soft kiss into Clint’s hair, smiling softly and breathing in his scent. “Sleep tight, sweetheart.”
VI - Stop telling me you're sorry and just let me fuck you silly (unsurprisingly: Smut Warning)
First: “Tell me what you want, pretty boy.” James purred right into Clint’s ear. He was leaning on his elbow, the fingers of his other hand softly tracing Clint’s chest.
Last: “I mean...” Clint chuckled, smirking up at his partner as well, “I wouldn’t say no, if you’re offering...”
VII - Clint's Love-Hate Relationship with Food (Eating Disorder Warning)
First: "Are you really gonna eat all of those?" Tony asked with surprise and almost something like disgust in his voice.
Last: “Yeah,” Matt scoffed. “I’m definitely not gonna leave you alone with this gaggle of idiots while your brain is being stupid,” he gestured around them, vaguely indicating the other Avengers, but mostly meaning Tony. “You’re my baby hawk, you’re gonna get all the cuddles you want tonight.”
VIII - Blanket Nest
First: “Clint-Buddy, are you okay?” Foggy asked as he came back from the kitchen with a fresh mug of coffee.
Last: “You’re perfect, Clint,” Matt signed at some point, simply making Clint smile this time. “Never change who you are for anyone but yourself.”
IX - Arrow, Snowflake, Star
First: “It’s not pretty,” Bucky muttered, wrapping their arms protectively around their chest, the right one covering the weaker left. “It’s everything but pretty...”
Last: “It’s more than I need to know that you’re my little treasure,” Clint said, just like I had done earlier. “We’re always gonna take care of you, no matter what happens.”
X - Why are archers so annoying?
First: “You wanna give it a shot?” Clint asked, gesturing with his bow before going to pick up his arrows from the targets on the other end of the lane.
Last: “Both.” I decided. “Both is good.” “Then both it is.” Clint smiled nodding for me to follow him. “Come on, little Hawk, let’s get you your treats.”

Has it been two weeks already? I can't believe it myself.
But while we all have been working on something else, the time has come for another Round of this.
In the last two Rounds of this challenge I made very good progress on all my posted WIPS and got a lot of new chapters on near-abandoned works into the world.
This round, I'm switching it up a little and all fics in the poll are unposted WIPs.
Some of them already have quite a few words, some are barely more than an idea. And all of them desperately need some love.
Keeping the crazy going, I will write 10 sentences per vote, so... go wild! Click some buttons!
Secret extra option: Don't you have exams? - Yes, shut up. /lh
Thank you @loki-is-my-kink-awakening for coming up with this!
Rules: Feel free to show whatever stats you have. Only want to show Ao3 stats? Rock on. Want to include some qualitative info instead of stats? Please do this. Want to change how yours is presented? Absolutely do that. Would rather eat glass than do this? Please don’t eat glass but don’t feel like you have to do this either. Artists and gif makers, please also join in with any quantitative or qualitative stats or facts you want to share about your year.
(I just did mostly the same thing as last year. Thank you @evenfallreads for tagging me again)

Writing Reflection
After getting into writing last year I went mildly to totally insane this year. I wrote more than I even thought possible, already upped my writing goal in January after writing like 30k on WIPs alone in two weeks, only to then end up hitting my yearly writing goal in September anyway.
I got into Podfic this year and it has brought me a lot of joy to work on recording and editing, as well as to participate in even more challenges and exchanges than I did last year.
Once again, I met a lot of lovely people and had a great time writing and simply enjoying fandom with people I like to consider friends by now.
There were many ups and downs, but I'm glad to say that, over all, this year was a good one for me.
I hope you had a good year as well and wish everyone a good start into the New Year. 💜
