Fanfic: Get off the cross...

De-lurking, yay! Please take care of me, I'm a nice, fluffy goat with no self-preservation sense whatsoever. ♥

Title: Get off the cross, we need that wood, and you alive
Author: waferkya 
Characters/Pairing: Steve Rogers/Tony Stark, Reed Richards, Hank Pym
Rating: PG14
Wordcount: 8031 (fidipu)
Warnings: H/C, slash, angst, spoilers if you don't know about the Extremis arc (is there someone who still hasn't read that?)
A/Notes: Be alerted that a couple of improbable details go on in this fic, and no, I'm not talking about the slash, because we all can agree that the Great and Epic Romance of Cap and Iron Man is pretty much canon as it is in the comics, thank you very much. Anyway I hope the ~*weird*~ little things I needed for the plot won't be too much of a bugger.
— I wrote this with only the Extremis arc in my mind, because I've been sick and I re-read fifteen times my hardcover of Iron Man: Extremis, Ellis-Granov, which, guess what, only has the Extremis arc in it. (Captain Obvious is being very much obvious tonight!) Ssssooo, don't expect great consistency with whatever happened right before in continuity, because I have the faintest recollection of that. You can imagine this fic is set in some slightly AU in which we're all almost happy right before Tony decides to screw up with his molecular structure, if it helps you not to hate me.
— Uh, what else? English is not my first language, so if you find any kind of messed up sentence or idiomatic expression, please blame WordReference. Thank you.
— The title is a bad, bad joke which compares Tony's fondness of selfdestruction to Jesus' martyrdom. It's Easter, afterall, and I've always had a thing for bad, bad jokes. I'm not sorry, but please keep in mind that I'm not trying to disrespect anyone, because I love you all, christened or not. Now let me go, I need to go back to Joseph of Arimathea's my tomb. I know I shouldn't have been out before Sunday, but wireless reception was utter crap in there. :D

I've just started reading, and it looks really good, but would be easier to read with double spaced paragraphs.

Ugh, LJ must've screwed up my coding :( I've posted it to AO3 too, though, right here (http://archiveofourown.org/works/189036), it should be double-spaced just fine :D

Oh, I just finished reading it at AO3, and I love it! <3

(Is this me de-lurking too? )

Very nice! I liked Steve's protectiveness and frustration, and how Tony just keeps not getting it. You get all the character voices really well.

Fantabulous! I love stories post-Extremis. (In canon everyone just jumped to mistrust right away.)

I really like this. I particularly liked that fact that Tony rebooted right as Steve confessed. When something like that happens it always makes me laugh.
