Another year is gone, and I had a wonderful time participating in @justlikebudapestauction yet again! This fan event is a Black Widow fandom charity auction whose proceeds are donated to support Hungarian LGBTQIA+ and human rights organisations.
For this, I offered my skills as an artist to create a custom drawing for whoever made the highest bid on my offer.
I am very pleased to have Lou as my highest bidder, because I was requested to draw a piece accompanying their short story. It was a delight to read it, get involved in the atmosphere and incorporate it into my artwork.
Thank you, Lou, for the collaborative exchanges on this and being so patient with my replies!
Read the "It's the Magic Number" over at ao3!

Hello Visitors!
After a half-year-long back-and-forth, I’ve decided not to open the auction for a third, 2023 round. You can read a bit about my reasoning below, but the most important part: I am so, so thankful to all of you for the last two years. This has been a spur-of-the-moment thing and you all made something amazing, something precious out of it. Thank you so much!
The accounts will be active until the end of the 2022 round (May, 2024, and a bit after), and keep all content afterwards. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns!
Thank you again! You’ve all been, all are, wonderful.
As to why I’ve decided to discontinue the event: some of you might know that I’ve been running it alone for the past one and a half years - and while everyone is lovely (seriously!), keeping track of everyone and everything is hard even when you don’t over-stress everything, which I do. Added to this that my offline life is going to be very busy, it became obvious that I could not keep up with the event with the same attention as I’d like, as it’d deserve.
At the same time, I cannot tell you how precious this is to me. I know most of us have been struggling with whatever politics are around us, no matter where we live, and as a hungarian who has watched hate-campaigns and restrictions and limitations of rights being piled upon on our LGBTQ+ people (among others!), and as someone who knows we are a small country with few eyes on us, I am beyond thankful that we’ve created this event, that you all have stood up with me, with us. Thank you!
And a thank-you to my previous co-mods and the Fandom Trumps Hate team too, for being integral to the creation of this event, and for giving us the base materials to work with, respectively.
Thank you again!

PS: I’ve thought about running a themed week, so that the people who’d like to participate still have the opportunity to do so, even if in a different way (and because I don’t actually want to let go of all of this). I’m hiding this at the end here, because this summer is already looking busy for me, but let me know if you’d like it, and I’ll see what I can do!
Sziasztok Látogatók!
Egy fél éves huzavona után úgy döntöttem, nem nyitom meg egy újabb, harmadik körre az aukciót 2023-ban. Ennek több oka van, de végeredményben egy dolog számít: nagyon, nagyon hálás vagyok mindannyiótoknak az elmúlt két évért. Ez egy pillanatnyi döntés eredménye volt, és valami értékeset, valami csodálatosat hoztatok létre belőle. Köszönöm!
A közösségi fiókok a 2022-es kör végéig aktvak maradnak (2024 májusa, és utána valamivel), majd ez után is megtartanak minden tartalmat. Ha bármi kérdésetek vagy aggodalmatok van, tudjátok, hol értek el!
Még egyszer köszönöm. Mind csodálatosak voltatok, vagytok.

Are you looking for fanfic?
Perhaps a fic about Nat and Bucky, be that platonic or romantic? You’d maybe even throw in a third person to spice things up? Here’s your chance!
bunckybarnesdeservestobehappy is offering a 5-10k fanfic of any rating from any Nat-related fandom! Support any of our featured orgs and win this fic. \o/
Get in the mood by browsing through their [AO3] or by reading the scene they’ve shared as an example!
[This example is NSFW]
“Her fist gripped him, and, as she talked, her voice low and dirty in his ear, she stroked him. He stiffened, pushing into her hand, suddenly frantic to chase his high. He could feel his heart stitching back together with every brush of her skin against his. She had a way of making him feel like he could conquer the world, that he was worth fighting for, that she wouldn’t walk out on him at his most vulnerable. More than anything, it was so easy to fall into old habits, and she was one of his best from the recent past.
“Nat,” he groaned, “you don’t have to do this. Not just to make me feel better.”
“I want to,” she promised, her voice in his ear, his back pressed into her chest, her arm snaked over his torso and down his pants, pumping and gripping until he was squirming from side to side. “I want you to know you’re worth everything. Everything.””
- Ask for much
Just Like Budapest is a Black Widow fandom charity auction, supporting Hungarian LGBTQ+ and human rights organizations. We are currently bidding! Find [buckybarnesdeservestobehappy’s full offer here] and [bid on their fic here].
