So clearly I have a bit of a new fandom. (Duh.) Keep tweaking the Jack/Tony fic closer to completion--every time I open the file, they start talking and don't shut up. Not porn, not sheep-dancing, just chatter. Politics. Snark. Because they both love the sounds of their own voices. Gib gib.
Still want to try to get into Obadiah's head.
And, because my brain likes to challenge itself, I keep getting bits of...het. Okay, het isn't too weird for me anymore. But main character het. Main character het that I would be EXTREMELY ANNOYED if they did it full-on in canon, if it was in any way romantic or schmoopy, if it was...anything except unexpressed protective crushing. But my brain is trying to make it work. WHY DO I WANT TO WRITE TONY/PEPPER?!
The fic in question actually wants to be called "Not Doing the Spiderman and MJ Thing."
They're doing that thing in my head where they kindof ramble and talk over each other. (Well, Tony does that all the time.) "--and also you're my boss, and everyone knows that I'd do anything for you, but not like that, and it would be like you're using me even if you aren't, even I would think you were using me--"
"--then don't let me use you, use me first--"
"--what, what's that mean, use you, how do you expect me to do that--"
"--it's how we do things in America, isn't it, use the other guy before he uses you--"
AUGH I AM TURNING INTO A MOVIE-CANON MAIN-CHARACTER HET WRITER.
(Also just because a girl is cute and straightforward and relatively normal doesn't mean she's also perfectly vanilla and sexually bland.)
I think this may be the weirdest pairing I've contemplated since Ed/Roze.
