#winterbaron Gwen Poole is tossed into the MCU! When everyone's (second) favorite Marvel fourth wall breaker is shoved into a winterbaron fanfiction, will she figure it out? And most importantly, will she read the tags and ratings and narrate it for us? archiveofourown.org/works/54412804

Fanart in the style of a Gwenpool comic
Title "GWENPOOL" and there's the word "winterbaron" spelled out in the shape of a samurai sword
The background is a blurred out image of an AO3 page
Gwenpool is a girl in a white and pink superhero outfit, and she's holding the heads of Bucky Barnes and Baron Zemo together as if to force them to kiss.

When you're in a fandom group chat and you think it's cool so u start sprinkling in the tropes u like but unfortunately everyone is not getting rlly cool about everything rlly quickly it feels like this

Person 2 (Green): Me after I stay up til 4am and start reading age gap enemies-to-lovers piss kink

Ngl I like what I like, but I can't force myself to stream stuff I don't care for just to "boost the numbers to support the creators" or "show the media we want more stuff like this" Like I won't sit through something I have no interest in just "because queer" or "because actor"

Now that's a size difference!!!! Ned (Lee Pace) is 6'4", Olive (Kristin Chenoweth) is 4'10" (She's also 9 years older than him haha)

A scene from Pushing Daisies
Ned (played by Lee Pace), a tall white man, stands awkwardly in a flowered room, with his hands in his pockets. Standing on a table in front of him is Olive (played by Kristin Chenoweth). She is a short blonde woman, who is slightly taller than him because she's standing on the table, but her feet are pretty much at his knees level. She has her hands behind her back and grins at him.

Is tag blocking a little too heavy handed for you? Still want to be able to look at the tags, and judge the fic on a case by case basis before you click? Someone made a spreadsheet that creates the AO3 CSS for you, and all you have to do is fill out the boxes! highlight-ao3-tags.tumblr.com

AO3 tags but they are color coded

Major Character Death, No Archive Warnings Apply, ever wanted to, Look at the Tags, of a work, and not have to read them, to know vaguely if they were, tags that you like, tags you avoid, tags you would never touch, Or Anything Else, maybe just some fun things, like adding some, Agender Character, Aromantic, Asexual Character, Bigender Character, Bisexuality, Demisexuality, gay man, Genderfluid Character, Genderqueer, Lesbian Character, Nonbinary Character Pansexual Character, Polysexual Character, Trans Character, cool flags?, OR maybe you have a tag you never want to even read, and have it just be black,

An image of the actor Daniel Brühl showing up for a photo op. He's wearing a button up shirt, with a sweater over top, with cuffed up sleeves, and jeans.
He looks sort of awkward, with his eyes really wide, and his mouth sort of flattening out as he sucks his lips in.

I saw a bunch of pearlclutchers getting upset at this enemies to lovers trilogy by Brea Lamb, and it actually sounded really good so I bought the first two books

Above by Brea Lamb
Darkness Reigns: Book 1

A dark skinned woman with freckles, brown eyes and wavy black hair wears a hood. She stares stoically right at the viewer and holds up a silver patterned mask with one tattooed hand.

Everything that ever was and ever will be, came from the stars.
On Dajahim, magic is awarded to those who earn it- who entertain and please the stars. Nova Tershetta was lucky enhough to have her prayers answered. and she is now the first person in her known blood-line to possess magic. But all things come with a cost. While Nova now has centuries of life ahead of her as a magic-wielding shaytan, the family of non-magical eadi she treasures more than anything does not.
After spending years researching a way to extend their lives. she is ready to take a different step: Elite Academy, which will afford her shadow magic and a chance at a better life for them all. But the elite forces consist of purists who would rather see of eadi like Nova die than so much as exist in a moment of peace or prosperity:
Can she survive long enough to complete academy and find a way to extend her family's lives? Or will she, like so many of eadi before her, find that Dajahim is not a safe place for those who don't fit the mold the purists have crafted?

For more history on the ORIGINAL trope that "Dead Dove: Do Not Eat" sprung from, check out this “Hydra Trash Party" blog. It came first, and was MCU specific, so DD:DNE was created later on, as a term for fics in that style in ANY fandom whatisthehydratrashparty.tumblr.com

Re: “Dead Dove: Do Not Eat” I always just use the original definition as coined by the creator, mostlyvalid on Tumblr, as the all fandom alternative to “HYDRA Trash Party”. ie. There will be no subversion or condemnation of the things tagged, proceed with caution

The "Dead Dove: Do Not Eat" tag would essentially be a "what it says on the tin" metatag, indicating "you see the tropes and concepts tagged here? they are going to appear in this fic. exactly as said. there will not necessarily be any subversion, authorial commentary condemning problematic aspects, or meditation on potential harm. this fic contains dead dove. if you proceed, you should expect to encounter it."
