Funny Friday, July 1st: Humour / Fluff

bumblebee armor by stitchyarts (art, G)

No Note, Car Gone (Out of My Mind) by thistlethorns
Some petty crimes happened to the completely blameless. Others happened to caffeine-deprived dummies.

An Ideal Perspective by magicasen
Steve gets back into professional art under a new pseudonym. Guess who his biggest fan is.

Prototype by laireshi
“You can’t tell me it’s a surprise.”

Cover Artist by Navaan
There is a folder on his desk with art for Marvels. Pepper hasn't said anything about it, but the one she has sorted to lie on top is probably the best thing he has seen in years. The name attached to it is “Steve Rogers” and it's not the last time that he comes across that name.

Waifs and Strays by Good_News_Everyone
"Fluffy fic made up from punnish humour!"

The Costume Won't Eat Your Brain (Probably) by Teyke
Warning: Temporary character death.
"If I stop reccing this, assume I'm dead. This is the happiest, fluffiest, crackiest fic about the giant revolving door that is death in the Marvel Universe."

Every SteveTony Fanfic Ever by Mushroom
'This is exactly what the title says it is. I am particularly fond of the line “I love you too, but you can’t just say that so early in the story,” Tony whispers, out of breath. “I still have five more chapters left to pine after you and lie about my feelings and reflect about how useless I am and how unworthy I am of your love and basically do everything to sabotage our relationship. I am scum, Steve. Stay away from me.”'

Milestone by nightwalker
"Steve and Tony discover that there's fanfic about them. Short, sweet, and fluffy."

The Finer Things In Life (Have No Place At An Avengers Christmas) by JenTheSweetie
Summary: Even superheroes have trouble picking out presents for each other.
"The dialogue is both fun and on point! And the gifts are hilarious."

Average of Six (Remix) by Woad
Summary: The different Steves in A Fistful of Steves: This Town Ain't Big Enough measure themselves up against one another.
"I actually let out a laugh by the end because this is NOT what I expected from a remix of tea's fic and it was so different from what I thought it was about at first. So much hilarity in only 316 words."

Tony Stark Advises The Avengers by copperbadge
Summary: Somehow, Tony Stark ended up Team Dad.
"Kamala, Sam (Nova), and Miles who ask Tony for advice via text. Very cute!"

things old and new by navaan
"Tony and his baby Avengers! The best warm feels."




Throbbing Thursday, July 7th: Porn / Romance

Blink by kaesaria
"for some good porn!"

Chain of Command by cptxrogers
"uniform sex after a meeting. Against the shield. Dirty talking Steve is one of my favorite Steves."

Just Shut Up Already by csichick_2
"Quick and dirty lab sex with Dom!Steve."

Call another time by AkikoFumi
"Steve getting a blowjob while he's on the phone with Fury."

Tomorrow It’s Ransom… or Torture! by Muccamukk
"Marvel Adventures rape roleplay. It will sound weird, but it’s actually the cutest."



Weekly Wednesday, July 13th: Action / Adventure

Before the Darkness Swallows You by Veldeia
Summary: Steve was gone.

Tony was all alone in the dark, the blackness of the damp, rock-walled corridor only occasionally broken by the fluttering fluorescent lamps in the ceiling.

He wasn’t afraid of the dark. An abandoned mine was by no means the scariest environment he’d ended up in. Still, he’d have been crazy not to be afraid of what lurked in these shadows.

"REALLY enjoyed this! I haven't been creeped out in a while, and it was fun to read before bed. :P I never knew what to expect. By the way, there's a bunch of hurt/comfort in it too for those of you who love H/C. Oh, and because this is a bit dark/creepy, mind the notes that Vel put on the fic!"

The Mountain, by Jay Tryfanstone (MCU, rated Teen, mountaineering AU, 36.4k)
Summary: Sixty-two days without a single blade of grass, four hundred pitons, twenty-three stoves, six down-filled suits and a moth-eaten bow-tie. Summer 1968: Tony Stark vs. The Mountain.

"This story is just everything that I love. All the adventurous mountaineering, with a ton of detail that at least to me seems very real (not being a proper mountaineer but a mere wall/rock climber). It feels like it could be an actual description of a real climb that happened, and yet, everybody is very much in character - complete with Tony trying to hide heart issues from the rest of the team, which, okay, I'll admit is always a good selling point for me, but by no means the only one here! Also, there's some cute Steve/Tony, too! If you ever feel like taking a trip to the Himalayas to climb K2 with the Avengers, this is *the* fic."

Hope of Morning by magicasen
"well, this one is epic. “An adventure”–but a giant one, to save the world. Mostly–the emotions. They ring so true in this fic. I love it. (be sure to read its companion piece, a lifetime past repair, too–it has one of my favourite Steves ever!)"



(Not So) Terrible Tuesday, July 19th: Hurt/Comfort

You Started by a_sparrows_fall
"Lovely civil war angst where the Reality gem is more monkey's paw than magical fix-it."

even if you don’t by nightwalker
"this is short and has exactly the kind of feels that make me lie down and sob over Tony–but with a happy ending!"



Mournful Monday, July 25th: Dark / Angst

Zugzwang by Woad
Warning: Major character death
Summary: His package comes back marked "undeliverable."

"UGHHHHHHHH is it weird that I was looking forward (but dreading?) to seeing one of them die especially after the Russos said the ending was controversial and it didn't happen? It felt anticlimatic. Anyway, I love this. A LOT."

Promise by Woad
Summary: After Siberia, Ross makes good on his threat to put Tony in one of the Raft's cells. Written for TRB Breakout.

"I guess this could be recced under hurt/comfort too, but I love how twisted this is. IT'S SO TWISTED, AND I LOVE IT. Also, this is less painful than Zugzwang (no death!) while somehow managing to be more painful at the same time."

Love is the Funeral Pyre by Antianeira
Summary: Tony doesn’t know what the feeling is in his chest when Steve drops the shield like it means nothing. Disappointment is too cheap. Grief, maybe, for the Steve Rogers he thought existed but maybe never was. His eyes burn. Loss is like good scotch; it grows in intensity with age and burns just as strongly. And this loss has been forty years in the making.

"Tony grieving in Siberia and afterwards over Steve in the context of his feelings towards Steve when he was growing up and what Steve meant to him during all those years and the things that have gone wrong in his life. I wanted a fic about how Steve's betrayal and Tony's broken trust had many layers to it beyond "I trusted you as a teammate/friend," and this covered it."

Saudade by aslightstep
Warning: Major character death (not Steve or Tony, though)
Summary: A deep emotional state of nostalgic or profound melancholic longing for an absent something or someone that one loves. Moreover, it often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing might never return.

"Steve and Tony before, during, and after."

Fallen by coaster
"the best of hickmanvengers angst. I promise it’ll make you cry. It’s so raw. And it’s a scenario I love."




Synergy Sunday, July 31st: Works created for cap-ironman community challenges, exchanges, and bangs

If You Want A Life Of Action by runningondreams
"I’m cheating a bit with this one, as it’s from 2014 and I was trying to rec 2015-2016 fics mostly, but oh my god it’s absolutely wonderful and remains my favourite BB/RBB fic all of time. The UST here. THE KISSING SCENES. And THE ANGST. *flails*"




Wacky Saturday, July ???: For all works too wonderful to be confined to a sensible schedule!

Symbiosis by Woad
"I wasn’t sure which category to put this one in, so the everything-fits one it is! I really liked it. It has a cracky premise, but is actually kinda serious, it has a bit of h/c, it has a sentient armour and mind melds–what else do you want?"
