I swear I'll post less soon.

Things that have taken root in my brain tonight and I still don't know why:

MCU college AU, where hard-of-hearing!Clint and child-of-Deaf-adult!Natasha who have been best friends for years take Deaf Culture as a blow-off class and meet tiny, angry hard-of-hearing!Steve who has spent so long demanding that his disability(/ies, probably) should make no difference to anyone that he's just now finally dipping his toe into learning ASL and learning about Deaf culture.

I cannot decide if I am actually writing this or not but I'm entertaining myself on and off by playing it out in my head. It makes me smile.

I will keep that in mind for the future. <3

I am definitely doing the thing, god help me. I am not only writing the thing in my head, I am writing an elaborate side story as well as the thing in my head, so god help me, it is gonna happen eventually.

(Darcy/Jane/Thor, with demisexual!Darcy, and autistic!Jane, who is also in their Deaf culture class/Clint and Tasha's general circle of ASL-speaking people, because signing is easier than words some days. Darcy and Jane are best friends and... something between friends with benefits and girlfriends on occassion, fuck labels. Jane happens to like big, tall, muscley guys too, because pressure! *flailyhands* Enter Thor.)

(Also tell me this does not need to end in Clint/Natasha/Steve/Bucky polyfamily if not outright foursome. Because I don't need to write that college AU before I finish the polybigbang dammit. :|)

(I am done rambling now.)
