Yeah I've read it now and it was alright. I also went through In Time of hers this week and hated it, well hated how she wrote Cosima anyway.

Oh? Do you have a link?

Oh, I read that one shot, but I didn't really like it. I have a problem with smutty fics sometimes, cause writers seem to think that for us to believe that sex is happening the couple needs to be speaking the whole time.

I liked it in the beginning when it was supposed to be a one shot but found I didn't enjoy it as much as a full length story.

It's a period fic where Delphine is the queen and she is pregnant in it. Do you still want the link? I know you're not much of a fan of them with kids.

I don't mind the dialogue if it's in character, but I know what you mean.

Yeah it was ok as a oneshot. It was difficult to believe that they were actually in love in the full story and Cosima....... ugh..... she was controlling, selfish, if not slightly emotionally abusive.

Yah link it! It depends how it's written. I'm not opposed to the idea of Cophine and kids, it's how the author writes the kids, and writes the kids into their lives that i'm very particular about. If that makes sense?

Yeah, like she was just trying to guide Delphine because she didn't know anything about the time period, what was appropriate etc, but it kind of felt like Cosima thought Delphine was a burden at times.

Yes. In that case you might not mind this one.

Well I know she did the Captain America crossover au thing and since I don't really know anything about CA I never read it.

I did read the first chapter last night and er... it's ok, but the way they speak, the dialogue is taking some getting used to. The tone of it me of that Cassanova fic and I could never really gel with that, but I'll try out chapter 2 and give it a fair shot.

Yeah, Cosima as Captain America. It's great! Cosima and Delphine meet whilst working on the super serum at Stark's lab. So it's still got the science part of it too.

She's not in the first story. She's in a couple of chapters in the sequel, but it's not much of it thankfully and Cosima is 100% still about Delphine at the time.

She could always just read the first one.

Well now I might actually read it. I have to say the biggest thing stopping me from trying it at the time was seeing Shay in the tags.
