[agentmintea]

@doctorhelena tagged me to explain how I picked my url!

When Agent Carter S2 came out, I wanted to change my url to reflect how significant that fandom was to me (and my blog) while keeping a reference to the Carmilla fandom (my "original" tumblr fandom), so I came up with agentkarnstein.

In 2019 I decided to standardize my usernames across different platforms, and I didn't want anything fandom-specific, so I settled on agentmintea ('mintea' being a funky way to spell my name) for ✨aesthetic✨ reasons as well as username availability reasons. I still think of the 'agent' as a subtle nod to Peggy Carter (my beloved) and it lets me feel like people are calling me by a code name :)

Post the last line you wrote and tag the same number of people as words.

Belatedly, here's my line:

“Okay,” said Steve after a moment. “That Batman-thing sounds good. Thanks.”

(From a Steggy WIP called 'Visiting Foreign Countries,' a time-travel story that one day I hope to post in my series 'They Do Things Differently There.')

Sorry for tagging people already tagged, but I am way too new to, and clueless about, Tumblr to know loads of taggable people, so I just tagged people whose stories I love, rather than not reply at all!

robot iconography: the origin story

I was tagged by @buckywiththegoodhair86, @doctorhelena, and @cafecitowriter to explain how I picked my username.

Once upon a time, I won a bottle of Ballantine's in a raffle at an office party. I was enjoying my winnings that evening when I decided to responding to an email that I'd long been putting off: my mom, asking what I would like for Christmas that year.

I wrote a long and rambling reply about all the things I liked, and included the line “I am passionate about robots and robot iconography.” Which, while it was as true then as it is today, was probably not helpful in terms of suggesting a Christmas present.

I can't remember what she actually got me. I think it might have been a duvet cover (without robots on it, sadly).

Some time later, I was trying to think of a name to post my Iron Man fanfics under, the phrase floated up from the depths of my memory, and seemed appropriate. So here I am.

If you haven't, and would like to be, please consider yourself tagged. 😁

My URL story

I was tagged by @doctorhelena to explain how I picked my URL!

I don't know exactly how this combo came to my mind, but the elements are very clear: I'm awkward, and when I started this account I was a student at, and am now an alumna of, Boston University, where the mascot is the terrier. Which makes me sound like either a bigger college sports fan or a prouder alum than I am, but is technically true!

[buckywiththegoodhair86]

I was tagged by @doctorhelena to explain how I picked my URL.

I was new to Tumblr around the time the third Captain America movie came out, and I was big into my Bucky feelings. And Bucky is still my boy, so the name feels appropriate. And also, as Doc can attest to, I do enjoy the wordplay.

So, basically, I like Bucky and I like puns.

And also, like, where is the lie?

My URL story

I was tagged by @doctorhelena and @buckywiththegoodhair86to explain how I picked my URL.

I hated my previous username and wanted a change but to keep it somewhat similar. I liked the idea of something to do with labels because I have amassed a fair few and while they don't define me, they are a part of my identity. I wanted Beneath the Labels initially but it was taken so I played with various B words of similar meaning until I found this one.

Then for some silly reason, I decided April Fools was a great day to make the change 😂 and the rest is history.

rules: tag nine people you want to know better. I’d like to know everyone better but I know better than to tag everyone.

tagged by: the dynamite @doctorhelena many weeks ago...sorry it took me so long!

three ships: Mulder/Scully (aka MSR) all the way. Used to be friends with Veronica/Logan (Veronica Mars) (see what I did there?) but S4 ruined that. I don’t really have a third that I’m diehard for, but lately I’ve been slightly obsessed with Miller/Hardy (Broadchurch), Duncan/Jimmy (Shetland).

first ever ship: probably Laura Holt/Remington Steele (me = old)

last song: Love, Love, Love by the Mountain Goats

last movie: Operation Mincemeat …which…eeehhh

currently reading: a heap of self-help books about emotional neglect. FUN.

currently watching: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1984), Shakespeare & Hathaway, Comedy Punks, The Umbrella Academy S3, Grace & Frankie final season, and Only Murders in the Building S2. But in recent weeks, I’ve finished:  Made for Love S2, Barry S3, Heartstopper, Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Kids in the Hall S6 (I was not expecting this to be as good as the original run, but it is quite excellent) and the nostalgia factor is high. Will be watching the last two eps of Stranger Things S4 soon...

currently consuming: large glass of water (stay hydrated, kids)

currently craving: the strawberry meringue cake I am having for dessert later

Thanks for the tag @doctorhelena!

5. What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

I try not to do angty endings unless they're drabbles like After Thought where Peggy see's Steve in her office during EG and thinks he's a hallucination. Or Roses where Steve buys Peggy flowers. Or Beast Inside and it's awkward ending

6. What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

Most of my fics are fluffy and have happy ending but the first one to come to mind would be Welcome To The Stork Club

7. Do you write crossovers?

No, I tend to get overwhelmed with more then three characters lol.

A few times, mainly trolls from Twitter or a few who are very upset that I haven't updated another fic.

Top 3:

Best Things In Life (I have everything planned out, it's just the overwhelming feeling I get because I know people love it and I don't want to disappoint more then I already have)

The Star Spangled Nightmare (who doesn't love a superhero/insurance agent relationship?)

A Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (It's just so fluff and loving of Steve, Bucky, and Peggy taking kid!Tony to Disney World)

I was tagged by @theawkwardterrier​ @lavellenchanted @beautifulwhensarcastic​ - thank you all so much!!!

I have no idea who’s already been tagged but here’s a few (and if I miss you please feel free to take this as a general tag lol) - @doctorhelena @steggyisimmortal @cafecitowriter @formerlyir @3pirouette @teaandatale 

(press you to) the pages of my heart - (steve/peggy)

With a huff, Peggy merged back into the right lane, preparing to take their exit. “Well, it will be fun, but don’t think I don’t see you backseat driving right now.”

Special Relationship - (steve/peggy)

“Football, Steve!” Peggy yelled, flinging her hands up in the air. “For the love of God, man, it’s a football match. Foot. Ball.” 

stealin’ a kiss or two - (tony/pepper)

He had flown into space and broken the sound barrier and saved the world several times, but none of that compared to holding Pepper Potts, the gold band of her engagement ring cool against his cheek as she pressed her lips to his.

a second time (within these arms) - (steve/peggy)

Steve starts at the old endearment. They are so close that Peggy can feel the tension vibrating through his every muscle, and she curses herself for spending the last few years ensuring his total distrust in her.

Arrivals - (steve/diana)

Themyscira was never far from Diana’s thoughts despite the near century she had spent in the world of men, and she was sure there was no other island that could hope to be its equal.

All’s Fair - (steve/peggy)

“It’s okay,” Steve says, lifting his free hand to cup her jaw. “Really, Peggy. We’re both where we need to be right now. I just missed you.” 

King Me - (steve/peggy)

Peggy smacked his shoulder and sniffed loudly. “I did not try to bludgeon you. My God, Steve, you’re so dramatic.”

Partners - (steve/peggy)

The look he threw her was one she had never seen from him in public, and her knees threatened to give way under the weight of it.

the pain of parting is nothing (to the joy of meeting again) - (steve/peggy)

The man gave a stilted nod, and his voice was strained. “Of course, Director Carter. Let me just call the rest of my team in.” He lifted his left wrist to his mouth—right hand still holding the gun—and said, “Hey, man, I could use some backup. Southeast quadrant, the cell block.”

you can count on me - (steve/peggy)

Something settled in Steve’s chest as they went, the sharp edge of constant uncertainty dulled by Peggy’s presence.

last line tag game

I was tagged by the always wonderfful @lavellenchanted to post the last line I wrote in my WIPs!

I’m switching back and forth between works recently, but the one I’m mostly focused on and written the most for is the untitled Peggy/Steve bdsm AU 😳

As usual, I’m doing last paragraph rather than last line, oops

Steve likes art very much. Sometimes he made Peggy into one of his creations. Seems tonight he planned on doing it again. 

Displaying her for his pleasure.

📓 for the ask game. doctor x rose (your choice as to which doctor)

Welp in addition to the ones I mentioned in the last answer, There's just... SO MANY Eight/Rose AUs. Just like... terminal brainrot levels of EightRose in my brain.

So how about the one I did ... sort of start writing but never got far with it; A College AU where she was a child star and he's a return student both studying in the same theater program. This got long, so under the cut it goes!

They meet for the first time at open auditions for the term, and they start talking there, and realize they have a class in common when they see each other the next week.

There's two plot threads really, Rose and her attempt at Normalcy and escaping the assumptions of childhood stardom as she's also trying to reset her mind before pursuing more serious roles. And Eight (John, because I'm lame) and his really shitty political family and their expectations and how they constantly have made him put aside his own desires for his life and the consequences for his decision to break away.

One of those consequences is the fact that after awhile, when his rent goes up, he doesn't really have the funds to stay there anymore. But, luckily he and Rose are friends, and she has a spare room, even though her apartment isn't THAT big. So now, they're roommates.

Insert just... so much 'oh my god they were roommates' and romantic pining content here. There's also a lot of hanging out with their friends, even though they're some of the only non-trad students in their friend group. (Also there's guitar playing and music because I'm a sap and that's just a thing I like)

Then former colleague Jack shows up to visit Rose and being mildly drunk when he shows up in the bar, she's like 'you don't have to go to a hotel, you can stay at my place!' because she's just... like that. And five minutes later she's like 'shit, I don't actually have a spare room anymore' and is apologizing to John and proposes that they share for the day or two Jack's around. It... more or less becomes him just moving into her bedroom because they like cuddling. And each other.

Long story short, the pining reaches terminal levels but they don't want to ruin their relationship, but at that point they're on the road to actually getting together. Rose has, slowly over the course of the story to this point, let go of her discomfort with her childhood stardom and the way some of the professors and other students act around her, so that leaves John's family plot to wrap up, so for MAXIMUM DRAMA, his brother's political campaign wants family shots and video for promotional purposes.

His parents more or less demand he comes home for this, and John invites Rose to come along. His family is not happy about him doing that, but John and Rose decide that fuck it, they love each other, they're gonna be there for each other no matter what, no matter the cameras, no matter the family dynamics they're born into, they get to choose and they choose each other.

Then they go back to the apartment, and live happily ever after. lol. (Also the whole thing totally ends with them having an onstage kiss in a play with just.)

📚 for Doctor Who ✨

Oh god, there are so many. The Rose-Dimension-Hops-into-the-Time-War fic, the I'm-trash-and-watching-Classic-Who-and-inserting-Rose 'fic' (there is no plot, it's just me wanting Rose and all the companions to be friends lol), the whole CharlEightRose universe. Let me see if I can sift through everything for one that's not... a whole damn cinematic universe in my brain XD.

Oh, man, I had a concept once upon a time of a Nine/Rose epistolary fic, that started life as a supernatural AU where he was like a historical astronomer, but that over the years kinda morphed in my brain just into a more... 'the TARDIS thinks Nine needs a penpal' kind of deal in his wanderings pre-Rose.

And it's just... them writing to each other in 'magic' journals. I still don't know why the journals are magic, it's just a suspension of disbelief point for the concept. But anyway, they write messages to each other, back and forth, in this journal, just... talking about life and the places they go/want to go, Rose talks about how shambles she feels her life is because of her terrible boyfriend (then, eventually, ex-boyfriend) and he just... talks about the places and people he sees.

The whole thing comes to a head when they run out of pages - they're down to the last pages and there's a final message, and then like... the next month he lands on Earth and Whoops, there's Auton's in the shops. Time to save the world. And accidentally meet his penpal lol.

(In the original concept there was unexplained time travel at the end, so I think that's why it ended up morphing in my brain, because like... if he's gonna time travel anyway, he might as well just... be a time traveler.)

Okay hi friends. I have not said anything on here, but I’ve been doing NaNo this year. And I have... for the first time ever a) gotten ahead and b) passed 10k.

I usually fail so hard at NaNo, and even if I don’t make 50k this year, I am so damn proud of myself.

That is all, carry on scrolling friends.
