So it hasn't been that busy a week on the comm content wise, but there's a couple of big things going on. First off, since it's been a year since we took over moderation of this community [livejournal.com profile] garrideb, [livejournal.com profile] valtyr and I had decided to hold a poll to see if the comm wanted us to continue for another year or hold a mod election. You may find that here. Please go vote if you haven't already.

We also had a bit of discussion here about whether we wanted to keep the place a Steve Rogers/Tony Stark comm or expand it's scope to include legacy characters in the pairings (such as Bucky!Cap/Tony). There wasn't a unanimous response, but the comments weighed pretty heavily towards staying the way we are.

I also took over the Slashy Moments List, which now has one hundred and one moments on it, and about ten in the comments that I haven't had time to add. Check it out!

As far as comic news goes, the only thing I've spotted that's relevant to our interests is the upcoming New Avengers Vol 2 #1. The previews have some cute Steve/Tony team work. Also, as I've been saying since I first read NextWave: Agents of H.A.T.E., Stuart Immonen draws a damn fine Steve Rogers. (and not a half bad Luke Cage, either, though there's something tragically wrong with Tony's moustache).

On with the round up! )

Finally, if you're a new or recent member, hello and welcome! Our rules are here, and in the profile; this includes our warnings policy, so please read. If you're interested in the ship, you may want to read the Ship Manifesto, and consult the list of Slashy Moments (Now at one hundred and one moments). If you're planning to write for the comm, there are some tips on writing the pairing here, and the Avengers in general here; if you're having trouble finding a beta, or would like to offer your services as a beta, our beta list is here. If you're looking for the comm archive, it's Tales of Suspense, and it's automated - you can create an account and upload your fic. if you have any questions, you can comment here or PM a mod, that's me, [livejournal.com profile] garrideb and [livejournal.com profile] valtyr.

Getting back in the saddle after a long, long absence of fic and I'm still terrified to be writing in this fandom. C&C would be most welcome.
