Fic: Jorōgumo (MCU x Grimm)

[jedibuttercup]

Gen; Avengers (MCU) x Grimm (tv), 1300 words. Post-Avengers, pre-Cap 2. For Day 9 of 2013.

Black Widow was more than just Natasha's code name. Unfortunately, Burkhardt had already seen that; she wasn't going to get away with playing mostly harmless demoiselle.

Okay, I just have to ask: what did you think of the S3 finale?

You can ask maevebran; she was here. :) I had to keep pausing the show to flail, and at one point said, "Sorry, I gotta know before it goes any further if my suspicions are right", and lo, they were.

I really, really could have done without the bottle breaking. If I could hold out hope it would all be resolved in the first episode in the fall, I would be a lot more sanguine about it. But arrrrrrrgh. At least the wedding was sweet? *sigh*

Yep, I kinda thought that might have been your reaction!

Admittedly, I sought out a detailed review of the finale specifically for a detailed plot synopsis before deciding to watch this season's finale or not. It looks like we hit every nail in the episode box squarely on the head in our previous discussion, so I'm going to wait until the first several episodes of season 5 are out before I decide whether or not I'm going to watch any more Grimm at all. After the debacle that Stargate Atlantis became, I'm much less willing to blithely accept whatever a show's writers want to chuck out there just because I love the cast and the characters, so I'll 'wait and see' before subjecting myself to further disappointment.

Alas, I waited until the "she inhales the green transformative smoke" scene to pause and Google for east coast reviews. At that point, I only decided to keep squinting through my fingers to get it over with for fic-writing-related reasons. :)

I may very well let the episodes build up on the DVR in the fall until the Grimmlessness situation has been resolved to decide whether I'll watch the next season, so there will be less throwing of objects at the screen!

"...so there will be less throwing of objects at the screen!

Everything to hand would either damage my tv, break or do both so I have to settle for yelling/cussing at it. Not that I'm not severely tempted anyway... :-p
