So I've been accumulating things I've been meaning to post in my Firefox tabs for, like, ages now. LINK DUUUUMP.

1. Fic: First off, I have to BLARE THIS ONE WITH TRUMPETS, because as far as I'm concerned, it's one of the best damn Steve/Tony things I've ever read. Seriously. Amazingly psychologically intimate. A lot of writers kind of dance around the whole how-Steve-relates-to-sex-thing because, well, it's hard to get a finger on. But she runs straight at it and nails it, and the results are, um, HOTTER THAN HOT. And incredibly insightful, and kind of getting filed in my personal fanon. Also, she claims this is her first time writing an extended sex scene. I don't believe her. Attack/Retreat, by

schmevil.

2. Fic: Blinded by the Light, by

jamailith. Movie-verse. Tony Stark/Scott Summers. On a car. Hhhhhhhhhooooooooot!

3. Scans: If fandom has not already taken this as a nice big organizational hint, then it SHOULD. Because there absolutely should always be somebody dressed up like Captain America at gay pride marches. Cosplayers unite!

4. Scans: The Top 100 What If Countdown. There is a metric ton of awesome here. (Assuming an average of 10 kilograms of awesome per What If? story.) My personal favorite, though, by far, is #2: What If Captain America Were Revived Today? (the 1984 version), because it may be a bit soapboxy, but it's an awesome kind of soapboxy. The kind that makes statements about what patriotism really means, and how Steve Rogers is honorable and old-fashioned and patriotic without, y'know, being a flaming asshole like most people who wave the word around. (Also, awesomeness generally results when Steve is really, genuinely, royally pissed off, which is generally both rarer and more impressive than I expect.)

5. Fic: Thick as Thieves, by

hegemony. Movieverse. Tony/Rhodey/Pepper. Er, make that Rhodey/Pepper/Tony. Kinky. Hot. AWESOME. I want that bed.

6. Scans: In which Steve is sulky until he and Tony work out their relationship issues. If you go trolling for Steve/Tony slashiness, you've probably seen at least some of this before, but this is the whole thing and relatively easy to follow.

7. Scans: In a radical departure from the Iron Man corner of the world, old man Logan. In which Logan is a crotchety broken-down old farmer in a supervillain-ruled America, going on a road trip with an equally crotchety and blind Hawkeye in a modified Spider-Mobile. CRANKY OLD MEN FOR THE WTF.

8. Fic: Machinations of the Heart(s), by

riot__libertine. Movie-verse. Doctor Who crossover. Tenth Doctor. Beginning of something possibly ongoing.

9. Fic: I Hate Everything About You">, by

fangirl_lizzie. Movie-verse with comics touches. Tony Stark/Bruce Wayne. Sap and antagonism.

*pants* There, I think that's it. Oh, and

quigonejinn continues to write hot-as-a-motherfucker movie-verse Obadiah/Tony. Just as a general rule.
