[cap_ironman_fe]

Rec Week is our beloved annual July event and it will be run from July 14 through July 20.

But first, we'd like to ask the community for your suggestions for Rec Week Themes! Please fill out this short survey by June 22nd and we'll announce the themes shortly afterwards.

And we're going to be doing a Rec Bingo as well later on this year and we're collecting suggestions for bingo squares.

Thank you!

Cap-IM Reverse Big Bang 2024: Team Kree (updated)

[cap_ironman_fe]

Title: caught red-handed
Artist: jetblackfeeling
Rating: Teen for art, Explicit for first fic, teen for second fic
Universe: 616
First Writer: ItsMayBiTheWay
Title of fic: Red Strings of Fate (Tying Me To You)
Fic Wordcount: 5035
Summary:

It should be uneventful. Steve has done this a million times, one way or another. Being used in public service announcements and publicity for the army came with the shield long before the ice did, and just because they changed mediums and became online in this century has made no difference for Steve.

Shaking his head, Steve physically tries to chase the memories of last night away. He puts on his most charming smile- one that Tony always tells him that makes his knees go weak, and takes a deep breath, promising himself that he won’t think about Tony until he ends the live stream. These people are tuning in for a good cause, his whole attention is the least he can give back to them in exchange.

Well, things rarely go according to plan, huh?

Second Writer: Neverever
Title of second fic: Situationship
Fic Wordcount: 6,832
Summary:

Steve isn't surprised that a clip of Tony appearing on his zoom meeting just wearing his thong went viral. He is surprised that his friends all think that it was a really weird way of making their relationship public. The thing is, he and Tony aren't dating and really aren't in any relationship.

Title: A Brooklynite Abroad
Artist: BladeoftheNebula
Writer: ItsMayBiTheWay
Universe: MCU
Rating: Gen for art, Mature for fic
Work Warnings: Choose not to warn
Title of fic: Found My Heart Wandering
Fic Wordcount: 2,972
Summary:

The scenery, for lack of better words, is simply breathtaking. The colors of the sunset before him, as he crosses his legs on the wooden pier, reach inside Steve’s sternum and cradle his heart gently, the soft pinks and blues swaying in the sky to create the perfect shade of lilac.
They fill in the cracks like the ancient art of kintsugi, proudly emphasizing all the scars with gold- you are better for all the scars you take, Steven, it shows you have loved, it shows you have lost- it all shows you have lived; instead of wasting your heart away, the voice of his mother repeats.
Backpacking across Europe for inspiration for his upcoming art show after a bad breakup; the last thing Steve expects to find is love.
