Steve/Tony Fandom Turns Ten

[garrideb.livejournal.com]

Hey, so maybe it's silly to assign a "birthday" to a fandom, but The Confession hit the shelves March 14th, 2007, and the ten year anniversary is fast approaching.

Browsing the Steve/Tony tag on marvel_slash, it's obvious people were shipping the pairing before The Confession but there were only 3 explicitly Steve/Tony fics and a few pretty great fanart posts. The first(?) multi-chapter longfic, Resurrection, Reconstruction, and Redemption started going up a few months after The Confession.

So I'd like to celebrate the ten year anniversary as more than just the anniversary of a particularly angst-filled an poignant ship moment; I'd like to celebrate it as one of the main sparks that ignited this pairing's engine.

Would anyone be up for a cap-ironman party on or around the 14th? It could be one giant post, or a combination of the following:
-comment fic post/kinkmeme
-party post for mingling and sharing favorite gifs, scans, recs, etc.,
-friend meme
-chat room
-starting a tag on tumblr for fanworks created for or during this event, maybe "stevetonyturnsten" or "stonyturns10" or some-such?

If anyone is into this idea, would you be willing to share with your fellow Steve/Tony fans who might not be watching this community?

Please let me know if anyone is into this idea. I've been feeling a resurgence of Steve/Tony love in my heart and it would be lots of fun to share it with a group of people. I might even throw together a vid.

Bingo round-up!

Hooray, I got bingo again, just. Please ignore the fact that I'm an idiot and a) got the deadline totally wrong and thought it was NYE for a long time and b) totally changed my mind at the eleventh hour about whether to do a diagonal or a horizontal line. Also my card is so ugly, other people do the cool stamps and everything? I just make giant clumsy crosses in paint. ANYWAY, fics are linked below the jump:( Read more... )

ETA: Sigh. Now they're ACTUALLY below the jump. I forgot how confusing LJ cuts were.
