Oh how time slips away

There's now a translation into Russian of my Bucky-secretly-cooks-for-Steve-with-Clint's-help fic Dream of Caramel: or, A Recipe for Disaster, if you read that sort of thing! It was done by [archiveofourown.org profile] Loki (secretlytodream), and I can't even imagine what a challenge that was, because it was so idiomatic and full of weird expressions, not to mention all the food.

There didn't seem to be a lot of interest when I posted about doing a Justified rewatch, but I'm persevering anyway, even if it's just a couple of us in comments. I figure I'll start posting at the beginning of September, and I'll try to do it on Tuesdays if I can, which was Justified night when it aired on FX.

If you've never watched it before, I hope you will consider joining us, I intend to make this accessible for people who weren't familiar with it! I will be interested in seeing how well (or not) things have held up. The series is available for free if you have Amazon Prime, and by payment on Apple and YouTube, among the main players. All six seasons are on DVD, individually and with a complete series set, so possibly your local library might have it available. And I'm sure there are still active torrents for ahem-ing.

So look for the pilot episode on September 3, and I'm excited about discussing this modern-day Western! If you think someone on your circle might be interested, feel free to pass this along!

Unfortunately, all I've been able to find is a crappy-quality trailer for season 1 at super low res. But here it is

Summary:

The guy turned toward David, asking, “Was that—are you sassing me?”

Before he said anything else he could get beaten up for, David swallowed the last of his drink, shaking his head. “Mm-mm. Wouldn’t dream of it.” His biceps were bigger than David’s head.
