Yeah, it kind of has to go to a Steve and Nat + Thor place rather than an Asgardian one, because on the Asgard side it's just a whole lot of keeping time until things get interesting again -- with Loki unconscious, they can't DO anything.

(we are talking, like, Earthside plot while SHIELD copes with this and brings in Rhodey and Jane, and on the Asgard side Thanos sends Gamora and Nebula.)

in the other direction. (on the other hand, Loki is going to be unconscious for a while.)
2) if I move forward with it then it becomes a full plotty multi-chapter tens of thousands of words AU and while I get that people like that it is also like. a lot.

Aside from working on other things, there are essentially two main problems:
1) whether it should be Thor and Loki focused or Steve and Natasha focused. for the past few years my tendency has been towards the latter and I think it will work better that way, but the opening scene definitely skews it

the only reason I don't still have Morning open is because I ran out of space, and I've worked on Morning much more recently than I have Reaches! (there's a point where even I have too many tabs open.)

don't get too excited, I've had the Reaches tabs open since 2021!

yeah! and there's a lot of stuff that I want to be able to go to very quickly without having to search for it -- like, I keep all chapters of my current (and usually previous) WIP up, I've got Home, Flood, and Reaches open now.

I use a LOT of tabs -- I currently have five windows open (which frankly is too many, but I've got stuff going on), each with many...many...many tabs.

the tab situation is...severe. (and yes, I actually can mostly remember which tab is which movie.) (I am doing a WV rewatch atm.)

I'm often not watching stuff through, but I am constantly checking things -- one of my permanently open browser windows is just tabs with all of Phases 1-3 (and some of 4/5) in internal chronological order so I can go instantly to whatever film/show.

ugh yeah my subscription renews...day after tomorrow, I think, and I am NOT thrilled by how much it's gone up, but I do consistently use it so... (What I need to do is cancel a bunch of my other subs.)

this one was Widow-centric and very much a "don't think about it too much" about her background but it DID include Live Sam Wilson View of discovering Steve's praise kink with Santa Claus (I swear this is 100% accurate) www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsTM...

hang on, when did CANON Steve realize that he had superpowers. like yeah there's that last USO show with him lifting the motorcycle but was that REAL or was that on wires? did he not actually figure it out until the Hydra facility? because that's definitely when he realizes he's in comic book land.
