Small World - Blog Posts
Ok so like the other day I found out that one of my supervisors and one of my coworkers at work both used to work at the same coffee shop that I also used to work at. We didn’t work together since we were there at different times, but I ended up find out because they were talking about that one crazy boss they had and when they said her name and the company I was like
Anyway… when I jumped in and said I also had worked there we were all like that one Spider-Man meme
I was here on this date. There an article publish in a literary magazine in Alabama called "FirstDraft" about some of my experiences at the Pedestrian gate @ FOB Diamondback, Mosul from Sept. 2006 til we moved to Q West in Feb. 07. I have tons of pics from that same gate. Same spot. Event gave the kids gifts there. One of those pics is published in the article. Small world!

PAIRING: Steve /Bucky
SUMMARY:
In East Berlin around the late 60s /early 70s, KGB Asset 3B-1 is tasked with eliminating a subject, but his personal equipment malfunctions and the whole thing gets switched to recon and this is how Asset 3B-1 finds himself watching a hapless artist sleep, mostly. But this is the heyday of spies and corruption and nothing ever being what it seems, and so Things Happen. Plot and action and secrets and lies Happen. Until of course the truth comes out, the way it always does. Because at the core of this are Bucky and Steve, as always—idiots who are being the most idiotic idiots about everything, especially each other.
A/N: OMG PEOPLE. IT IS DONE. WE MADE IT.
i nearly drove myself nuts trying to wrap up every last wayward plot strand, but really -- i only have myself to blame for stranding so many plots to begin with.
You absolutely have my permission to yell at me in the comments if i've missed tying up any loose ends. Or anything else. 🤣
i also need you all to take a moment and thank @booksandabeer because she made this story into what it is and saved me from myself countless times. It would not have been worth reading without her amazing beta skills and patient understanding. And she's as much of an accuracy /research freak as i am, which, let's face it, is saying something.
And then i need you to help me throw all the love at @bittersweet-in-boston who is the reason i wrote this, and is the loveliest and staunchest supportive cheerleader anyone could ever hope for.
Finally to @hanitrash and @sparkagrace, and the amazing @smlmsworld, who yell shouty love at me and then blame me for making them yell. i am not sorry.
THANK YOU ALL FOR READING. i LOVE YOU.
