I do not get FrostIron, but I think that's my hobby now, not getting ships.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't see FrostIron, either. I'm happy with Steve/Tony and Clint/Coulson.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I like Steve/Tony, Tony/Pepper, Clint/Coulson, Tony/Bruce, and the occasionally Steve/Tony/Bruce (mostly because the portmanteau seems to be Stark Spangled Banner).

It's a plethora of pleasure.
I just want to find some Tony/Natasha fic that isn't about her manipulating him or the team. I did a search of AO3, and it was all weird. I think the two of them could have some great comfort sex.

Connie, have you tried the avengers kink meme: [link]
If you're looking for a generic Steve/Tony community, there's: [link]

I'm combing through kink meme now. I love a new fandom's worth of fic.

Just want to pimp a new story for the Reverse Big Bang on cap_ironman, a '30s era au with Tony as a bootlegger in Chicago and Steve as the honest homicide cop from New York who got transferred under mysterious circumstances. A body is found in the snow, it looks like a rumrunner was killed, and clues point to the boss of the North Side speakeasies, Tony Stark . . .

Because there now is a LetsdrawSPN I learnt of the LetsdrawSherlock project, and I think I'm going to pack up my toys and go home after this [link] because it is PERFECT.
(Just kidding--I have my concept for the SPN one--booyah!)
How popular is the 221B fic format in the fandom? I can't believe they had to think one up for SPN.

Been working my way through AvengerKink. And boy, when they say kink . . . I'm very, very grateful for the clear tags and summaries of what people are looking for. I don't want my fic to be that educational, kthxbye.
