'An alarm was blaring, and once Nate came to his senses he realized he was standing outside a bank, holding a sack full of money.'
I'm still mourning for my beloved Legends of Tomorrow (LoT) after it's beautiful batsh**tery was cancelled a mere few weeks ago
*Swoons on ye olde timey fainting couch*
(...I have no idea where that came from - let's just keep moving... 😅)
For any other fandom, this would be crack - but not LoT!
...This could legit. be an episode plot, and it actually wouldn't be their most outlandish or bizarre.
(Fandom notes:
crack = fanfiction so utterly bizarre and batpoop that it's more than a little, well, cracked. (And/or a drugs reference.))
Mick Rory is one of the original LoT team who went all the way from series 1 to series 6.
He's a macho thug who writes romance novels.
Because this is Legends, and Legends is amazing.
...There's a sad lack of LoT gifs on Giphy, so you might've seen me use this one before. Gif via Giphy. |
In this fic, due to magical shenanigans, much of the team get sucked into the first draft of Mick's new novel.
...Which is a thriller/romance mash-up.
Cue hijinks! Lol.
Despite the relatively large amount of main Queer characters in LoT...
- this fic decided to make Mick Queer too, because why not? Lol.
So there's an element of M/M romance with Fire and Ice (Mick Rory and Leonard Snart) which... was actually a really sweet thing about dealing with grief and messy emotions.
...Unexpectedly lovely! 😊
And it's well-written.
And you know I have no choice when it comes to well-written fanfiction.
I must rec.
These are the rules.
(Oh, and there are LoT SPOILERS in this fic, if you hadn't figured it out already.)
A few Content Warnings for this one:
- general violence
- bank heists
- prison breaks
- (un)-natural disasters
- grief
- situation-forced Coming Out (supportive environment)
...I think that's everything, but as always - be careful! I might've missed something.
This week's fic, then, is:
First Draft by Queen_Woomy

It's great that the show can stay alive with fanfiction. I guess I can add that to my list of reasons why I love fanfiction now!
