There's a new critter who's just moved into the compound. Please ignore him if he attempts to bum a cigarette from you. He's trying to quit, and the second-hand smoke aggravates Ginger's asthma something fierce. Please don't enable his bad habits!*

*He knows where the smoking section is. He's just not willing to pass the Kraken to get to it.

Not at all, it's all because Mr. Stan suffers so beautifully

ikr? A whole bunch of my faves have suddenly become not so fun to read because I keep picturing but-i-knew-him!SebStan and it stops being sexy and becomes dubconny. /entitled fan whining

I really enjoyed CA2 but on the other hand I'm awfully sad that it's Jossed the WS fics that bank on the sort of dark ironic humor that is present in some Soviet-era literature (e.g. Moscow-Petushki).

ohhh recs nonny? Can't say I'm familiar with Russian literature in general but that sounds intriguing

Super Detka by Petronia has this humor peeking through on occasion but the fic set-up doesn't really work for me: https://archiveofourown.org/works/534222/chapters/948133

Honestly, I can only think of two off the top of my head. ^ That one, and this one which is my favorite, And we shall joyfully tell one another everything that has happened: https://archiveofourown.org/works/747572?view_full_work=true

My sense of humor is prob wayyy off from the mainstream, but this makes me laugh more than deliberate fluffy humor or crack stuff. It's just--the little things. The traffic problems! Exsanguination by mosquitoes of sanguine prisoners! Unintentionally cool coffee! Plus some nice effective lines on the WS's role. Obvs this is OOC & wrong backstory for CA2's WS, but I still love it.

Why does this link go to a "mystery work"? Is it a fic for a fest?

DA

Surely not?

AO3 users can randomly add works to collections, can't they? Has someone chosen this fic to add to a collection of theirs, and set it to unrevealed? (I hope you can't do that. Man that would suck.)

Authors of a work can add it to a collection. Owners of a collection cannot add other people's works to a collection, though they can remove them. My guess here is that someone made their own private collection to archive works they do not actually want anyone else to be able to read.

ayrt

I AM DISMAYED. I looked at the collection info but have no idea why the author did so. The other work in the collection kind of fits into the same 'verse (I can figure out what it is since I've read it before), so I hope it's just for some unspecified reason before the author makes it publicly readable again.
