MemeSurvey 2: H/C! But mostly hurt...

Bleugh, I am in a mood. Its an odd mood, and is most probably due to the fact that its Monday tomorrow, the weekend was not as relaxing/quiet as I needed it to be, the weather is murky and chilly, and my afternoon nap was too long.

So here's a memeSurvey of my own making, because I am procrastinating writing because 'the mood' will influence the atmosphere (so I keep telling myself) and as its Sunday night, lets talk H/C but mostly hurt! (its sure to cheer anyone up!)



1. What was the first tv/film/book (or all) when you realised you liked h/c?

2. Which do you prefer? Emotional or physical? Or the fine combination of the two?

3. What is your hurt limit/squick factor? Or do you not have one?

4. Do you find h/c influences your mood or matches it? (i.e. are there circumstances/moods when you seek it out?)

5. Should h/c be the focus of the fic/show or a delicious ancillary to the main plot?

6. Fav character to whump? (or fav half dozen?)

7. Which character did you try whump once, and it just didn't work? (or for the readers, which character whump did you not enjoy)

8. Fav type of h/c, whump? (if you can pick just one)

9. Do you need there to be some sort of comfort in the h/c? Or is hurt in and of itself good enough? OR is comfort on its own good enough, with just referencing the hurt?

10. Most recent 'onscreen' whump (h/c) you liked/enjoyed? (show/film/book)

Ok.... small request: I am in a h/c mood but am only finding old favs on delicious. Any 'new', 'recent'ish h/c fic in SGA, SPN, H50, Avengers you can rec? Gen please :)

Have you checked out the marvel big bang or the avengers fest fic exchange? I've seen some good stuff there recently.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/567102 "She is Nataliya. She is Nathalie. She is Talia. She is Natasza. She is Natasha. A story of how Natasha Romanoff found herself, with a little help from that annoying American with the bow." (and the art: http://users.livejournal.com/_odella_/105505.html)


Jessica Jones fic! http://marvel-bang.livejournal.com/16404.html It's Jessica Jones in the MCU, and it was great. My biggest complaint was that the author is obviously shipping Jessica/Steve (though the fic is gen) when Luke Cage is right there and their chemistry is awesome, hah.

I haven't read this because it sounded too h/c for me. It says it's gen. No idea of the quality. http://avengersfest.livejournal.com/11973.html
"Summary: Written for my Avengers fest challenge/prompt/assignment/thingy; angst, reads like hurt/comfort but the comfort part is the hurt, dark, pre Iron Man, Obadiah Stane works his way into Tony’s life.
Warning/Spoilers: Pre-Iron Man fic written by someone who knows nothing about the comic universe so possible canon destruction, mindfuckery (Obadiah Stane/Tony Stark – not sexual content), non-sexual desperation watersports, Stockholm syndrome, past emotionally abusive Howard (not physical or sexual or even intentional), profanity."

This was rec'd to me, and I have to admit it was pretty well done: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8239460/1/Flames-We-Never-Lit Peggy Carter is frozen in 1946 and awakened by SHIELD in 2012.

I also read that really long fic Apocrypha from the 2011 J2 big bang: http://archiveofourown.org/works/233426/chapters/357263 (117k words!) It was actually pretty good. It's kind of a grand unifying preseries fic that integrates John into the later mythology- what he knows, what he's doing preseries and during season 1. It's framed through his time in hell, and is one of the first fics i've seen that makes the quasi-fanon that John held out for 100 years in hell palatable to me. (i know that alistair said that, but when I heard that line, I automatically assumed he was lying. Especially as relatively early into season 2, the demons were trying to get Dean to cut a deal, even a ten year one.) But yeah, the fic is actually really well done. It suffered from a weak summary, I think.

You've probably read this one, from the gen bb last year I think, http://archiveofourown.org/works/512891/chapters/904602 Ghosts of Future Past, where season 4 Dean keeps getting visits from his own future ghosts, trying to get him to fix things and do them right. They also download all of their memories into his brain, so he gets a little wobbly on reality at times.


http://archiveofourown.org/works/547998 The Avengers in the End 'Verse. It was one of those crossovers where I wanted to scoff at its ridiculousness, but couldn't stop myself from clicking on it anyway. Because the End Verse is awesome. The story actually works, if you can believe it.
