Fanworks meme!

Fanworks! I love them! And despite thinking about vids constantly (hello, vidders I've recently subscribed to!) it feels like it's been a dog's age since I've posted anything. (This isn't actually true, but like I said, it feels that way. Particularly for fic.) So:

I currently have 47 works archived at the AO3, including fic and vids. Pick a number from 1 (the most recent) to 47 (the first thing I posted), and I'll tell you three things I currently like about it!
no subject
1. I like Bruce Springsteen, and I will go to my grave convinced that Steve Rogers would love Bruce Springsteen's music, so the fic makes me happy just on that basis. The title of the song that the fic title comes from is also relevant to the fic: bonus points.
2. I'm from Jersey, and it pained me in my soul that they stuck a sign by the side of the road in Ohio and called it New Jersey in the movie. It's clearly not New Jersey, so the obsessively detailed localisms and allusions about the shortcut from DC to Jersey in this fic (for example, the Georgetown double entendre that relies on knowing DC) are my way of getting back at that, and that makes me happy.
3. There's actually a decent amount of queer history packed into this fic, which I also quite like about it. I'm always happy to strike back at the assumption that queerness was invented in the postwar (or whenever), and I think the bantering nature of the discussion helped make that point. Also that Steve is totally bi and it's a non-issue. And that the end line of the fic ties all that together. Um. Yes. That was probably more like four things.
