      Ninety One Whiskey

      It's probably enough to read chapter 1 until 21st April 1944.

      There are no warnings for this chapter and you don't really need any knowledge about Supernatural to understand the fic.

      What could be relevant in terms of adaptation is that in SPN, the angels work similar to a military force. People with weird names in the fic are all angels in canon. Dean is canonically a monster hunter which there are not a lot of and which don't work as an organised force but rather in small teams and mostly outside the law (because there are no laws regarding supernatural creatures).

      Effects of Obliteration

      CW: mentions of torture, mentions of physical abuse/punishment (in a military context), mentions of human experiments

      "This is another Captain America fanfiction in which Captain America (with the Avengers) finds an abandoned Hydra Base. The Winter Soldier has been left there in a cryo-chamber and is found by them. It might be interesting here how Captain America and the Winter Soldier are seen as opposites, while still both being Super Soldiers. (Captain America as a good team leader who makes his own decisions and the Winter Soldier as a machine that has no will of its own and follows orders).

      Sommergarten

      Since we talked about getting lunch together, but not everyone could make it, we thought about maybe getting food and/or drinks together at  the campus Sommergarten after the session. Let us know if you would stay on for that!
