The Pantheon Fic part 1
Author: That would be me, Joysweeper Affrey. (Damn. That rhymes.)
Title: The Pantheon Fic. I'll have to come up with something else if I write in this 'verse again.
Rating: Eh... G, PG. Be warned, there are links to TVTropes, dread eater of time. Many links. I went a little crazy, apparently.
Disclaimer: ... If I listed the real owners of all these characters, this would be a huge block of text.
Feedback: Please do. I'm trying to practice third person without italics abuse, and I love con. crit.
Notes: The Pantheon is a TVTropes thing started when tropers started wondering "What would things be like if the world were run entirely on tropes? Who would be the Gods and Goddesses?"
As a troper myself, I was intrigued. Someone had put Captain America into the Houses of Defense, Justice, and Law, and they'd made him the God of Justice. But they hadn't fleshed the entry out at all. I had to fiddle with it more than a little. Iron Man was also in the House of Technology, similarly non fleshed out, so I fixed that. ... Good grief, did I fix that. He's also in the House of Craft now. Then I had to keep padding things, working in that growing tradition of interconnecting the various people we've stolen to be in the Tropes Pantheon. I have to say that it's been a lot of fun, and I love the open aspect which leads to things I'd never have thought of, like making Darth Vader Defense's second in command ...So I wrote a fic explaining something that I'd referenced several times. It turned out to have a slashy flavor if you squint, so I might as well post it tocap_ironman . It makes no attempt to fit into anyone's canon and is sort of multicrossovery, but the focus is mostly on Steve and Tony. This first part is more to set the scene and has only a little to do with Tony. Don't worry, that will change.
I'll stick a few more links when it feels like I need them, but I'm going to ease up now.
Chase the fake cut to my journal.
