About 3 months ago, I had to step down from modding the CapRBB due to life and work reasons (turns out that neglecting your spouse and side job in order to do fandom stuff is both emotionally and financially unsustainable). It's been hard because I love alby and kaj and I was leaving them high and dry, and I was also simultaneously disengaging from pretty much all-but-AO3 fandom. But alas, needs must.
Anyway, these three lovely people wrote 3 lovely fics based on my art, and also helped me stay connected to the fandom!

imhereforgaysuperheroes wrote a lovely and soft pre-war fic where Steve takes Bucky to a queer bar and Bucky is very confused!

Thank you to the awesome, inspired, and amazingly hard-working authors! I've enjoyed reading all of the wips and throwing art in your direction!
