Diary of an Evil Genius

Hi, I miss these humans.

Okay. First of all. Who knew a FUNNY Bucky vid would ever be possible? But here it is, and it's a masterpiece. 🤣

Second of all. Who knew I'd get solidly addicted to a Sharon Carter vid? But here it is, and it's got me excited to see her storyline play out.

Okay, back to our regularly scheduled Bucky angst. I love this song for Bucky, and this is by far the best video I've seen to it.

I'll Be Good, by CinnamonBucky (a re-edit of an earlier vid)




And finally, the one I've been looking forward to for weeks - SecretlyToDream's full series Bucky-arc video. SecretlyToDream has been my favourite vidder for YEARS because of the incredible artistry in every one of their vids. If there's symbolism or foreshadowing or throwbacks or parallels in the movies/show, SecretlyToDream will find it, edit it together, and drag tears out of your eyes with it. I knew this vid would be fantastic.

Out of Time, by SecretlyToDream

The theme of a lot of this week's new Bucky vids is Bucky's resilience against all odds, and I am LIVING for it. I've found a few new all-time faves.

Survivor (by Jagreenie) - The timing in the action sequences in this vid!! Also, I need to download this song, because I like it so much more than the original Destiny's Child version. EPIC. Bucky is the ultimate survivor.



Shattered (by LilianHearts) - I've always loved this song, and I've seen it used for Bucky vids before, but with the new footage and this vid's focus on the end of the song rather than the beginning, it takes on a whole new meaning. This is Bucky regaining his hope. (Also, the timing of Bucky going dusty gives me CHILLS)

Edit: After watching this about a dozen more times, I think I just realized why this is the best use I've seen of this song in a Bucky vid - the line "his love will conquer all" isn't talking about Steve, nor even about Sam. From the clip choices on that line, it's BUCKY'S love this vidder is talking about. His ability to love (his friends, his team, the shield, humanity, freedom, and hopefully one day himself) has survived everything he's been through, and it's what keeps him going. Oh Bucky... 😭



Keeping Me Alive (by Madelyn Thompson) - Another new favourite video AND song! This one is action-packed, but in a way that shows Bucky's progress from assassin to hero, and the editing is SO PERFECT, and the clip choice works SO BEAUTIFULLY with the lyrics. It's the perfect blend of angst and action, and really showcases Bucky's fight to reclaim himself.

This one has all the fun and exciting moments from episode 3 in one convenient place for repeated viewings! So thoughtful. :D

You guys. WandaVision is SO GOOD. SOOOO GOOOOOOD. It's been a while since I've wanted to change my default userpic, so that should tell you how much I'm loving it!

And this is the Marvel show I had the lowest expectations for. What other mind-blowing awesomeness is in store for us??

We have our first Lost In Space stills, and since this is totally going to be my Next Big Fandom, I had to make some icons!

Just simple and straight-forward like always, so feel free to use these as bases if you want to get creative. Please leave me a comment if you're taking any, and credit makes me feel warm inside. Hope you like!

( Should I cut for spoilers? )

I'll probably post more once I've screencapped the teaser, and rumour is the full trailer will be out soon, at which point I'll probably go icon-crazy. I haven't been this excited about an upcoming show in a loooooong time. :D

Just a little Code Black fic I wrote for hineas_estel, expressing our snarky feelings about the show getting rid of its best characters. (Spoiler alert: Malaya Pineda, aka Melanie Chandra, is the latest to be unceremoniously dropped between seasons.)

Disclaimer: I didn't watch season 2, so I'm working from second-hand information. But this is set shortly after the events of that season.

No warnings, unless you think my snarky attitude at the way this show treats its actors might offend you. Characters used are Neal, Malaya, Christa, and Mike.


( The Cast-Offs )

Stop whatever you're doing. Look up Tommee Profitt on YouTube or iTunes. Listen to his music from the albums Cinematic Songs Vol. 1 and 2. ALL OF IT. BECAUSE IT IS AMAZING.

Case in point:





You're welcome.

Holy crap, I wrote a fanfic...

It's Spooks/MI-5. Characters are Zaf, Adam, Fiona, and Harry. Humour, I hope. Set between episodes 4x02 and 4x03, based on a vague anecdote from 4x07. Rated T for a bit of language. Enjoy?

Summary: Can Zaf really talk his way out of any situation? Spoiler alert: Yes, he can.

( One Particularly Memorable Occasion )

Made 18 new Raza icons! From various projects/appearances. Whatever struck my fancy. Hope they strike somebody else's, too.

Snag at will, alter if you like, comments and credit are appreciated.
