ATTF: Community Trick-or-Treating  
trick or treat

Happy (almost) Halloween, bar! It's been quite a week in fandom, hasn't it? This post will be the spot for your community Halloween party for the next week or so!

Last year a bunch of people did fandom trick-or-treating on their personal journals (here's mine, for an example) and it was so much fun that I decided to steal the meme.

So, here's how I'm going to adapt it for the community:

  • If you want to give out treats, reply to this post with the comment "My door is open" or something clear to that effect!

  • Your fellow bar patrons will then reply to your comment with "trick-or-treat"

  • You will provide some sort of treat (or trick, I suppose)! Treats can be anything you want--a picspam, a short comment fic, a compliment, or anything else that strikes your fancy!

  • There is no deadline for providing treats. You are also welcome to put a limit on how many things you're willing/able to fill.

  • Anyone can participate!

  • Out of consideration for your fellow bar patrons, please refrain from including Age of Ultron trailer spoilers. I know we're all excited, but this is going to be a busy post, and I'd hate to see the experience ruined for anyone.

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

She's fucked up so much, twisted so many hearts around her fingertips, shattered them, left them.

She's taken sweet men, left them to rot and walked away without a thought.

She's fucked up relationships she could have had. People she could have called friends.

But she doesn't fuck this up. She doesn't twist him around, doesn't break him down. She doesn't risk seeing what happens when she walks all over him in high heels and she doesn't dare think about bullets and blood when she's near him.

He centers her, puts his hands on her shoulders and tells her it's going to be all right. He shows her what it means to be a person, how to grow and transform.

He gives her the motivation she needs to wear her skin as her own and not as someone else's.

She promises, in the late nights when he's lost, when the world is still falling down in his head and he can't be sure if he's in control, that she still loves him.

And yes, she has fucked up. she's destroyed people who could have loved her, but this was better. This is worth it.

They'll see each other through the night, pull one another down the paths into the goodness they deserve, even if neither of them think they actually do.

She'll remind him and he'll remind her and they compliment each other that way, just as they always do.

They are meant to be this, meant to be the people at each other's sides.

And maybe one day it will change, they will falter or shift or simply grow out of each other. Maybe.

But the day is not today, the night is not this one. They will hold each other, promise each other, be there when the other needs and that is what being a partner is, that is what belonging means.
