i saw your tony/loki shipping post and it's got me considering it. do you have any recs?
I sure fucking do! (referring to this post)
Sorry this took me so long to get to, I had to go back through some of my bookmarks and refamiliarize myself with the ship. If anyone would like more recs just let me know!
Stark Fashion Statement by STARSdidathing | 10k, T Tony knows it takes a lot for Loki to play nice with Asgard. Mostly, it takes him wanting to secure an apple for Tony. Despite this, Tony is willing to hate everyone on sight, especially when he's forced to attend an event with Loki. But just because they're playing nice, it doesn't mean Tony is going to stand for an insult. Who says time on Asgard can't come with a little mischief?
(Do check out STARSdidathing Ao3 they have SIX HUNDRED completed FrostIron stories.)
Devoted to you by Draysmeria | 14k, E *part of a series* Tony Stark's beliefs were one of the best guarded secrets of all times. The thing was, if you asked Tony about it, he would say that in his opinion it had absolutely nothing to do with belief. Because he knew for a fact that his God and others like him existed. So, he did not have to believe in the elusive existence of a higher power but could worship and be devoted to a very real deity that had visited Earth regularly in centuries past. He had absolute Faith in his God and was devoted to him, addressing prayers and offerings to him regularly; his chosen God was Loki, god of Fire, Chaos, Lies and Mischief.
(I am fascinated and in love with the idea of Tony praying to Loki as a god. Loved loved loved the entire series.)
Exploiting Technicalities by pineapplesquad | T, 9k His blood ran cold the moment his seidr touched the other man. With unsteady hands he switched his earpiece to their private channel, fighting the panic rapidly crawling up his throat. “JARVIS,” he snapped, voice already shaking, “why are you piloting Anthony’s armor?” Loki didn’t care for the long pause before the AI finally answered. “Sir has activated a protocol that, when enabled, allows me to remotely pilot the Iron Man armor to continue the fight if he is to fall unconscious. My priority is now the safety of the team.”
(The emotional angst and pain of this fic hurt but it was a good kind of hurt.)
Never Let Go by STARSdidathing | T, 3k Anthony likes to hold Loki’s hand. And it’s not that Loki doesn’t enjoy it, quite the opposite actually– he just doesn’t understand it.
(It's just so soft and cute and after the angst of the last one, it's a soothing balm to the soul!)
The Einherjar’s No Good Very Stressful and Incredibly Difficult Job of Protecting Tony Stark by NamelesslyNightlock | T, 14k When the Einherjar notice that Tony Stark makes Prince Loki happier than anyone – or anything – else, they decide that protecting the mortal is a matter of complete importance, and put all of their resources toward the task. But… their job would be a whole lot easier if Stark would just stop putting his life in danger at every possible opportunity.
(Outside POV but it's just so good. I love seeing how others view their relationship and the idea of someone trying to guard Tony of all people makes me laugh because he does dangerous stuff all day every day.)
When You're Gone by NamelesslyNightlock | T, 5k DUM-E misses Loki almost as much as Tony does. This causes a problem when, after a longer than usual absence, DUM-E decides to go looking for him.
(It's just so cute! I adore when fics explore all of Tony's robots and the fact that DUM-E misses Loki is just adorable and I want more of it okay.)
A Little Unsteady by kipli | E, 68k *part of a series* After observing the battle at the airport between Captain America and Iron Man, Loki stumbles upon Tony Stark hidden away in the depths of a panic attack. Loki finds himself drawn to Stark in ways he’d not expected.
(Loved, loved, loved this one! I loved the sequel as well.)
So We're ... Friends by Loni4ever | E, 15k *part of a series* When Loki shows up on Earth two years after getting exiled from Asgard, what Tony expects is fights, casualties and attempts at world domination. What he gets instead is reasons to smile, answers about magic, and an unlikely friend in a certain prankster mage. ___ Or, 5 Times Tony and Loki Didn't Fight Each Other, and 1 Time They Decided To Fight Side By Side
(this was perfect. The way they showed the transition from acquaintances to friends to really good friends to best friends to omg I might actually love this idiot to dating to falling in love to HUSBANDS. I just really really loved this whole series and melted so many times)

21 for 21
In honor of my 21st birthday coming and passing, here are 21 of my favorite fanfics to ever exist (this is not an exhaustive list of my favorite works btw, there’s too many to list!):
Blackbonnet
Love & Metachrosis by multi_angxls
(My beloved Abby gifted this to me and it remains the very best ofmd fanfic to exist. I am only 3% biased in saying so, because it truly is a masterpiece.)
Frostiron
Blood on the Battlefield by STARSdidathing
(The angst in this one! I love me some good hurt!tony and the way this one utilizes that to bring maximum pain to Loki…ugh, it’s just so good. The best kind of angst in this one!)
Borrowed Heat by usedupshiver
(This is one of the very first frostiron fics I ever read, but this is the story that made me realize I had found a forever fandom in frostiron. It’s just everything.)
Entwined by STARSdidathing
(The feel-good story to end all feel-good stories, while also being enemies to friends to lovers. Incredible doesn’t begin to cover it.)
Fighting, Flyting, Flaunting, Flirting by Redring91
(I maintain this is the single best fanfiction I have ever read.)
Incarcerated by Shortsnout
(Something about this one just speaks to me. The subtleties, the emotions, the storyline…so. good!!! I’ve reread this one so many times I’ve lost count- I mean it. I’ve easily reread this over 50 times.)
Loki’s Song by NotEvenCloseToStraight
(I’m pretty sure this is the most beautiful thing I have ever read. Ever. It’s a masterclass.)
There All Along by STARSdidathing
(A/B/O is a trope I nearly never read because the dubious consent is something that triggers me to no end, but STARS creates an endlessly beautiful universe where a heat simply triggers an instinctive desire for closeness through cuddling. If it is possible for a story to be a safe space, this story is mine.).
The World At Your Fingertips by AMidnightDreary
(If I could only read five stories - no others - for the rest of my life, I’d choose this story as one of the five.)
Good Omens
So Still I Wait by HotCrossPigeon
(I read this one when I need the sort of pain that leaves you shaking. Mind-numbingly good.)
Spirk
Let’s Not Mind the Store After All by Reyka_Sivao
(This fanfic is the reason I created a folder titled “✨Best of the Best ✨” of fanfics bookmarked to read again. Truly, this is the best of the best.)
Some Kind of Love by WerewolvesAreReal
(This story just makes me feel at peace. It’s a feel-good read that soothes my soul and makes me feel warm.)
Stuckony
Cried For Love (Can’t Stand It) by Potrix
(This fanfic melts me. Every. Single. Damn. Time. It hits so hard and is just so well done!)
Small Time Boy by Just_Bill
(I love AUs like this so much, but this one is just supreme. It’s incredible in every way, 15/10. 150/10. It’s brilliant)
What Tony Stark Can’t Buy by ClarkeStetler and Goosenik
(*happy stims happy stims happy stims*)
Winteriron
1000 Paper Cranes to See You Kneel by Shi_Toyu
(When I say this one is a masterclass, I mean it. I really mean it. Emphasis on ‘mean it.’ It’s stellar.)
And Time Again by Amethystina
(This story hurts, but in the very best way possible. It is also like receiving a hug, at the same time. The very best!!)
One Winter Weather by ali_aliska
(The fluff!!! The sweetness and protectiveness and love present in every single action and conversation!! I love this one SO MUCH)
Paths Are Made by Walking by Potrix
(This one makes me grin stupidly at my phone while reading, which then makes my friends ask who I’m talking to, which then leads me to explain I’m talking to no one, I’m just reading the best fluff ever.)
Stronger by SkyShadow3246
(When I say this fanfic is devastating to read, I mean DEVASTATING. It aches, stings, and altogether wrecks me, but it also is a fanfic I revisit over and over again when I need to strong arm my way to the other side of what I’m going through.)
The Evidence by StrivingArtist
(This one just…hurts in a way that will always be deeply, deeply personal to me. The ache it leaves in my chest even days later will never not be powerful- the power of words right there. This is one of the best fanfics I’ve ever read, hands down.)

January Recap!
It has been a fun month of not really writing but also writing a ton to prepare for new stories and celebrating Five Whole Years of fandom nonsense HOLLA. 
AO3 says I’ve written 216 Fics and 4,545,824 words since 2017 and while those numbers aren’t quite accurate (several of my ‘works’ are collections of short stories and I have LOTS of writing on Tumblr that I never moved over to AO3!) I still feel like that’s a hell of a lot of words for someone who hadn’t even heard of *fan fiction* before 2017. 
Also doesn’t feel like ENOUGH words cos some of the verses feel way bigger to my heart and my soul than a word count could possibly contain, but hey, I’m still proud of the stats and definitely wouldn’t have written near that many without reader support, commissions and y’all giving me ideas that I absolutely have to get down on paper so cheers to YOU. 
January Fics: 
Sleepwalking (Stony)
Best Friends (Spideypool)
Room Service (Frostiron)
You Light Up My Life (RhodeyTony)
Silence (Winteriron)
Phone Calls (Stony)
The Way to His Heart (TonyxEveryone)
Coming Up! 
Stay tuned for the 2022 Writing Plans Post, book order notifications come through your emails and the first chapter of our first 2022 fic “Sea Swept” coming along next week!
Happy Saturday!

There's a lot of Fluff ahead of us...
With the survey closed, it is time to look at the results - and be excited about what lies ahead of us 😊
We had 103 responses in the end 🥳
Within those 103 responses, we have
93 writers
2 artists
8 writer&artists (both)
For the artists, we have one ambitious enough to try all 31 days, the others plan to create art for 1 to 10 days.
For the writers, more than half of you (54) plan to create fluffy fics for 1 to 10 days, 18 want to write for 11 to 20 days, and five for 21 to 30 days; 22 of you amazing souls are so ambitious and plan to write for all 31 days... and one is actually planning to write more than 31 fics, meaning some days have multiple fics!! (Dare we say crazy? Yes, it's crazy! We can say that; we know the person who's attempting to do it 😉)
Most of you hadn't started by the time they filled out the survey - but that's okay, we still have time 😊
Now, as for the fandoms and ships we have to expect, the variety is far more spread than we ever expected (or dared to dream of) and it would probably explode this post if we tried to list them all; so only to name a few, we have (in alphabetical order)
911 & 911LS with Buddy, Tarlos, Marcy, Parjan, Judd/Grace
Avatar: The Last Airbender with Zutara
Harry Potter with ... too many ships to count 😂 but it covers everything from the canon ships to the most beloved fanon ships to rare pairs to crossovers (seriously, HP fandom... you're wild!)
InuYasha with InuKago
Lucifer with Deckerstar
MCU with Stucky, Stony, Frostiron, WinterFalcon, Loki/OC
My Hero Academia with Midoriya Izuku/Shinsou Hitoshi and Shota Aizawa/Hizashi Yamada
Rosewell New Mexico with Malex
Schitt's Creek with David/Patrick
Shadowhunters with Malec, Clace, Sizzy
Star Wars with Reylo and a few x reader fics
Supernatural with Destiel, Sabriel, Saileen
The Old Guard with Joe/Nicky
And this is really just scraping at the top, there are so many more and from so many different genres. Animes, Mangas, Comics, Movies, TV Shows, Books... Let us just tell you, we are blown away and so, so excited by how far this has spread 😍 it's also very humbling (and a little bit intimidating tbh 😅)
Most of you plan to write their fics about the ships, but there are also many, many who plan to have it focus on friendship, family feels, platonic relationships, or simply the characters. Or who want to combine it all.
What made us squeal in delight was the fact that - with the exception of two people - all of you are interested in more months with fluffy prompt lists! We've taken note of that and we certainly won't forget about it 😁
But for now, let's focus on FLUFFTOBER 🥰
How are you all doing? How is planning and writing and arting going? Send us an ask and let us know about your progress - we're always happy to hear from you. And as always, if you have more questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us. If it's something you would rather discuss in private, simply state so in your ask and we swear we won't reply publicly!
And now... back to preparing all the fluff 💖

I was tagged by @mcfiddlestan!
Rules: List all your WIP titles, all meaning even the ones that are vague or nonsensical. Tag as many people as there are WIPs (that might be a lot, so we’ll see!)
Oh wow...So, I have quite a few if we are including ones not posted! (And here's a thank you sweet baby jeebus you aren't asking for plot bunnies! We'd be here all dang day!)
Read more below the cut!
Separated by fandom:
Sherlock - Johnlock
The Ghost and Doctor Watson - Based on The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. I love the tone of this one, but I was discouraged and disillusioned with the fandom as it crashed and burned in front of me. I was in my happy place and the huge amount of negativity from elsewhere killed it for me. Don't know if I will ever finish, but I have it outlined through the end. So, maybe?
The Violin Case - At one point, I started posting it, but ran into a writing block and took it down. After Reichenbach, John finds Sherlock's violin case and it's full of letters... to John.
Unnamed Dexter based fic - I started this so soooo long ago. Basically a dark!John fic, where Dexter comes to help Sherlock solve a string of murders.
Unnamed Deaf!lock fic - I figured out very quickly that I did not have enough schema to accurately portray a person with hearing impairment. I loved the premise, but couldn't follow through.
Unnamed Imperial India fic - This one was based on a novel I love, Olivia and Jai, which is a ridiculous romance book. I can tell you I am proud of my writing in this one, but I didn't want to deal with any historical backlash if I ever posted it, because you know, colonialism.
J is for Juxtaposition - a one shot, part of the Alphabetical Experimentation series.
Black Sails - SilverFlint
Color Blind - Basically a different take on a soul mate AU
Star Trek Next Generation Fic - An AU based on another book I love, Imzadi, which is about Riker and Deanna and time travel. I have 20 full chapters and loved what I've done with it. It's blocked out, I just need to finish it, but I don't know if I will post. It's one of those where things are borrowed HEAVILY from the original text, and I feel a little weird about that, even though I did that with The Measure of a Gentleman? IDK... Opinions?
Marvel
Frostiron
The End of Games - My current posting WIP with @shinysherlock. Basically, everything after Ragnarok doesn't happen and we write the last two movies the way things should have happened. With Frostiron, of course.
Revenge - A one shot that could turn into a longer fic, BUT it's... really trigger-y. Tony is tortured in as much as I have finished, and he and Loki deal with the aftermath. A little squeamish about posting because I know some people would probably clutch pearls, so...
Unnamed fic - Loki is saved from the snake's venom torture thing by Tony, Strange, and Wanda because he's needed to save the world.
Lokius
Unnamed fic - the next installment of the Survival of the Fittest series. That's probably what I'll go back to when The End of Games is done.
Original
Professor/EMT murder mystery and romance - maybe someday I'll finish this one. I have it blocked out if I ever am motivated.
Vampire fic - I had grand ideas once. That's all I'm going to say.
Sea Turtle story - A children's book about a sea turtle
The Key - A teacher finds a key to a safe deposit box in the floor of his recently deceased father's home he's clearing out. In the safe deposit box, he finds his father's travel diary documenting a cross country trip with his best friend.
When the Moon Looks Like This - a Loch Ness monster children's story. Which is finished. And pretty damn good. But I don't have an illustrator, and I have no idea how to get it published. Plus, the idea of going through the process gives me the scaries. So yeah. Anyone want to publish it for me? And illustrate it? Hit me up!! XD
I am SURE that I gave way more info than asked for in this, but *shrugs* . Oh well.
I'm tagging @mycapeisplaid, @shinysherlock, @daziechane and anyone else that would like to play, because I hate tagging rules and I can't possibly name as many people as WIPs I have!!!

Podfics, podfics, podfics...
I'm looking to do some podfics of fics that have really hit me in strong (good) ways, and they're one of those I can't seem to track down in my usual manner (which is... probably on purpose, considering their received comments are set to be moderated and that they likely put up with a toooon of bullshit from people with Opinions.
(Keep reading to see which fics I'd love to podfic and why, and how you can help me find them!)
Also. Recs. Lots of really awesome fic recs, specifically for Tony-centric readers and those who really hit it off with Civil War Team Iron Man!
Does anyone know the Tumblr or Discord of: @TheSovereignofReality or @Wix from AO3?
Anyway, I'm a fan, and I just wanted to discuss maybe doing one podfic on a trial sorta thing, and then maybe doing a couple of my other major faves or a series of fics. As of my last major read-through of their fics, my favourite was definitely Mutantkind (this fic is so kickass, I love Logan). Not trying to spoil anything for any of this or the other fics, but taking up the chance at exploring the links between the X-Men and the Avengers (more Tony and even Pepper and Rhodey and such) was such a great move. A power move in so many ways, and I'm also really really eyeing the Transcendent Souls series that leads into the author's OC-linked series, Lennie Alice, and it all sounds like it's phenomenal and I just want to READ it, who cares about podficcing it??? I mean, I do, but most important of all: I'm just a fan who sees shiny fics all in a pretty series-row that I hadn't gotten around to yet (too busy reading Ramblings for the 10th time and wincing with each successive hit to the gut. Ouchies. But poor Tony too, woW. That one just hurts. In a cathartic way (even though I love Peggy, it's fascinating to explore these things!!)
Like Disney's "What If?" series if they weren't too scared to explore the really interesting things that make people tick and feel betrayed even decades later.
All of these authors, above and below, sure know how to throw those punches, and I like that.
I do have other podfic projects on the go, as well, yes, but spring is a great time for me and I get a lot of projects done pretty well on the regular. The Night King has been vanquished and the sun shines upon us again and offers me much Vitamin D and happy-stuff. :) :P
Doing a fic by @Wix would be awesome too, but I'm also not sure of their handle, unfortunately. Plus I've rarely spoken to them! Believe it or not, I can be shy. xD But there are so many of Wix's CW Team IM fics that I would just love to podfic and really sink my teeth into for the absolute wreckage and carnage that some of these characters would be feeling. Righteous anger, true anger, when you know you're right, when you just think you're right and the world crumbles down around you.... god I would love to really act those fics out and make people feel, just like we do and more when we're actually reading Wix's awesome body of work. It could be a real experience, and I would love to be able to help share that. All else fails, I'll just give these last two a message in their comments. ;)
And maybe @rayshippouuchiha might be interested in chatting with me about doing a (second) podfic of Hide a Heart of War? There can never be enough podfics of awesome Stuckony (or any ship, really), but I do also have my eyes on another few of yours that you don't have podficced, m'dear. :) I mean, Sore Must Be The Storm (wow, I relate to that title---and the fic itself---hard) would be really cool to do if the second chapter was up, (wing fics! CW Team IM! Woo!) Or the ever-so-classic "Assassination Attempts Are Not Flirting Toni" tag that epitomizes The Devouring of Hearts (which is hoestly epic and I am going to go re-read asap) or The (Not So) Great Pretender (it has a TextToSpeech podfic but those are hard for some people to follow along to --- I know my hearing issues mean I can't catch all of it, sadly, and none of it clearly! =/). Let's talk, if you're cool with me doing one of yours?? :) I would be so thrilled!
And @not-close-to-straight I cannot forget about you (ever) in this season of big eyes and planning out podfics all excited-like. Has anyone ever approached you about podficcing the entirety of your 3-part series Of Gods and Men that is ThunderIron, ThunderIron & FrostIron & Thorki, and then is PURE ThunderFrostIron with a super. special. twist. at the end omg???? Can we talk about that sometime? Whenever is good for you, if you're at all interested? Because there is NOT enough ThunderIron in the MCU, because I love Tony, because there is not enough FrostIron with Thor and Loki being awesome (usually), and then especially because there is NEVER enough poly ThunderFrostIron for my tastes and I just cannot when it comes to these fics. I just really would please love to podfic it, out of all your awesome fics this one just strikes right deep at the heart of me.
So. Um. Yeah.
This was going to be a quick "do you know this person!?!?! I'm desperate!" kind of Tumblr post, but it turned into me somewhat begging and complimenting at the same time, and it sounds totally shameless but I also haven't slept for about 48+ hours properly and I am in severe pain so the mania tends to be the Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse with all that.
So. Yeah. Just let me know what you think, preferably via DM here or on Discord (Juulna#0508) or Ask or whatever. I'm happy however. And these are YOUR fics, I have zero claim to them whatsoever no matter how I may strongly relate to them or love them or think they should have their own awesome experience with me spitting angry lines back when required in response to pure sass. I would love to try/do it all. :) Spring and Summer is my podfic season, and I'm going to have a lot of fun with current and potential projects alike!
Ta, loves. And thank you for considering me for podficcing these awesome works! If you want a recent example of a fairly quick (and porny, hah) oneshot I did, I think you'd like what I did with @tsuki-chibi's The Shirt [fic]. Check the podfic out here, and then give the original author love because it is a DAMN FINE fic (and I want the shirt, hah).

AO3 Writer’s Tag Game
Tagged by @teadrinkingwolfgirl and @missarisanitewrites
[and a couple others (whose tags I didn't save)] on very similar tag games, which I combined and I'm sorry this took so long to get to, but thank you so much!
How many works do you have on AO3?
9 (but one of them is a collection of 20 flash ficlets from prompts that can each standalone as a story on their own in the same pocket universe)
What is your total AO3 wordcount?
305,410 (published as of September 2021)
How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?
2 and a smidge? (more coming)
MCU
Only You (1994)
& a haiku or 2 for SPN
What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Closer to the Heart
Just An Old fashioned Love Song
After Ragnarok
A Stolen Exchange
Trapped Together
(I am not popular, LOL.)
Do you respond to comments, why or why not?
Yes, absolutely. Because I like connecting with readers, building up our community, and those wonderful souls who comment with kindness deserve a kind response.
What is the fic you’ve written with the Angstiest ending?
Don't Fall Away (as a sort of open-ended, who-knows-what-comes-next quality to it, even though the major theme is resolved. That's as angsty as I’ll get.)
Do you ever write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve ever written?
Apparently, yes. Don't Fall Away. (so far, gimme a minute)
Have you ever received hate on a fic?
Yep.
Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Yep. uh, what kind? 
Romantic? Satisfying? Silly? Emotionally charged? LOL.
Mostly I write explicit M/M, but also some F/M, but I think maybe this question is really asking about handling purple prose or strange/vague euphemisms for genitalia or actions. 
Frankly, I use the words: cock, balls, ass, n*pples, lips, and clit shamelessly whenever needed. I probably do wax a little poetic for what the participants are feeling/thinking whilst getting down and dirty. It always feels a little mechanical to me, but I keep trying, hopefully improving. I hope the reader can envision the enjoyable sex the characters are having without it detracting from the story when it happens, because it's both necessary and gratuitous to each instance it occurs. And my characters always have the good sex. 
But I'm thinking I should really write a sex scene equivalent of "it's like pizza; even if it's bad, it's still pretty good!" because it would be funny to have mediocre sex in a fic for a change instead of an Earth Shattering Bang, and I like humor a lot. Humor always has a place in the bedroom. Even the fictional ones.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Yep.
(The plagiarism was super easy to report and get removed from AO3. Bless the AO3 Abuse support team.)
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Nope. Not yet. I could be talked into this with the right person and subject matter.
What’s your all-time favourite ship?
*sighs deeply* Frostiron has been my chosen ride or die OTP since around 2013. And I don’t see it changing anytime soon.
I am a ship and let ship soul, though. I've read enjoyable fics with every possible MCU character pairing published through about 2015-2016. Same goes for Hiddleston (and Hiddleston characters) and add your plus one or more combos (OFCs, OMCs, reader inserts, self-inserts, crossovers, free-for-alls, etc. I kink shame no one, even if they run up on a squick of mine, that’s my issue and not anybody else’s). I head canon a whole lotta love for shipping with lots of fandoms I don't explore overmuch. We should all ship all the ships we want. (Han/Leia and Westley/Buttercup are my original canon OTP ships.)
What was the first fandom you wrote for?
First fandom I published for: MCU
What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?
All of the ones from a flash fic prompt list which includes:
Wish Granted
Trapped Together & especially
A Stolen Exchange  because I didn't have plan before I started publishing from the prompts. I had to fly by the seat of my pants for each piece, had no idea if I could let it end up without a proper ending or tied up loose threads. ASE is a collection of writing exercises (write quick-under 2 hrs, publish quick-within 24hrs of taking on the prompt, 500 words or less). It really built my confidence in my ability to tell a story. Two of the prompts were written on the same day, the other 18 were one per day, all of them related, and tied up with a neat little explicit bow on chapter 20.
Feel free to ignore the tags, my lovelies: @writernotwaiting @rabentochter @jaybarou @later0varies @pedeka @whovianfloozy @geminiloveca  @prudenceevenstar @maeve-curry-writes @silverdrip @securitybreach @the-haven-of-fiction and this is open to any other writers who wish to play. 
blank list below the cut for copy/paste ease of play

2020 Creator Wrap
Rules: it’s time to love yourselves! choose your 5 (or so) favorite works you created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought to the world in 2020. tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!
I know I’m a bit late, lol. @ehtarwrites and @writernotwaiting tagged me for sure. @salamanderink might have as well.
But hey, better late than never, right?
Still Learning
This was one that didn’t really get as much love as I had hoped, haha. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but still. I put a lot of my heart and soul into this fic, and I’m very proud of it. The plan was for 2-4k of romantical Spideypool smut, and somehow it turned into, like... processing grief and loss and such. idk, man.

Heaven in Hiding
It’s consensual and romantic cannibalism. I mean, not quite, but I don’t know what else to call it. It’s not vore. Anyway, it’s a story I’ve wanted to write in some form or fashion for years. Then one day I was talking to Ehtar about it, and bam. Sat down and wrote it.

Face My Fears
This one I’m proud of largely because, like... I had had such a hard time writing during 2019. And a good part of 2020. Then, you know, the pandemic and quarantine and everything else horrible. But somehow I managed to make the most of it and sat down and started writing. It’s very dialogue heavy, and probably not one of my best works, but it’s got a special place in my heart.

Tear You Apart
Following getting back into writing, I made this beautiful thing. I had a lot of fun tapping into Tony and Loki being rougher in their sex. They definitely could have gone harder, but, hey. Room for escalation. :P Plus I got to show off Loki’s brand of Softe Sadism™.

Kinktober (2020)
I know I’m only 10 works in, but I 100% plan to finish this. And even if I don’t, I’m really pleased with the 10 I’ve finished!

Frostiron Holiday Wishes Challenge ❆ 🎅🎄Master Post! 
Thank you to all those who’ve submitted a prompt/wish and lovely artwork/fics for these wishes! Here is a compiled list of all the prompt fills received! :D <3 
Tumblr media
Requester: @kimmycup Wish (Prompt/Idea): Invasion fic where Tony figures out Loki was mind controlled before Loki does: "But I WAS in control. Thanos didn't control me like I did Clint." "Yeah sure. And if you wanted to take over the world, what would you do?" Loki spluttered, fully aware that plan was dumb. Still, he would KNOW if he were controlled... Right? "But I wasn't mind controlled! It was me!"

Requester: @brianadoesart Wish (Prompt/Idea): Cupcake shop au!!!  One of our boys owns a cupcake shop and the other one is a FREQUENT visitor to said coffee shop. Lots of people think its because they have a sweet tooth, but they're just hopelessly in love with whichever one owns the shop.

Requester: @snarkyship Wish (Prompt/Idea): Human/no powers AU. Sort-of-enemies to friends to lovers.Tony rents this house/bungalow by the sea for the summer, with a kind of private beach where there is also a cute gazebo. Only that the gazebo is exactly halfway with the other property (by some mistake?). And the tenant of the neighbour bungalow is Loki, who's not so keen on sharing. So Loki&Tony will start a "war" to gain possession of the gazebo, doing their worst using the excuse of "this is my half, I can use it as I want". ((Optional: there is a table right in the middle, so at the beginning they sit at their own side glaring at each other, before starting deploying more convoluted tactics)).Mischief after mischief, they will start to know each other and of course everything will end with one of them inviting the other to their half for a romantic dinner and they'll end up sharing more than the gazebo <3((I hope it's enough clear and but also not too detailed??))

Requester: @lightneverfades​  Wish (Prompt/Idea): Loki is a yoga instructor and one day Tony goes to one of his classes and finds out the best positions to ‘relax’ - body, mind and soul >:D. (I love puns, so go crazy hahaha!)

Requester: @martiszcz​ Wish (Prompt/Idea): Someone is trying to break them up by making Loki jealous, mentioning Tony's playboy years, talking about the time they slept with Tony, talking about how much time he spends with some friend (Pepper, Rhodey, I don't care who) but Loki doesn't react - they trust each other.

Requester: Nivael * Wish (Prompt/Idea): Loki and Tony are in an established relationship. Things go great, but Loki is still unaccepting of his Jotun heritage and body. While Tony is completely fascinated by it, partly because Loki tries to hide it so hard. So he gets a fancy magical gadget from Strange (amulet, bracelet,...?) to be able to avoid frostbite so he can touch Loki even when he's in his Jotun form. Then there will be smut! :D

Requester: @arandomsewer​   Wish (Prompt/Idea): I just want him to live on and being supported by his Friends and his brother recognizing him, that's basically the prompt. Tho here's the details of the Idea I had: Loki is living at the tower with the others (of course) too proud to say out loud how much he likes life on earth... The usual.Something happens and suddenly the magic that made him look Asgardian is just not working anymore. Understandably, he freaks out. Im talking hides in his room, crying, anger, hate, on himself and others... The whole lot, he just throws a major fit.The others know him and kind of understand and are patient... But it’s not getting fixed. Days pass, and he's stuck like this. After a while Tony snaps him out of It, and he slowly calms down and starts learning to accept this side of himself. It’s specially strange to him how he can just walk in a room and no one treats him different. How the others are even fascinated by this form. I expect Thor being shocked and curious and snapped at and reminded how he (and his people on general) have been unfair to Loki... And of course, there's the romance with Tony, Who loves him in all his forms (and they fit together 'cause he's kinky and Loki a shapeshifter)Also imagine Loki being terrified of touching Tony and then finding out he's cold to the touch but not actually dangerous (my headcanon: he's the son of Hella. Half giant and half Asgardian, and the actual heir... But that's for another fic)

Requester: @worstloki​ Wish (Prompt/Idea): Tony and Loki both having panic attacks at the same time. just make it wild. whatever the reasons are, maybe it's the same reason? maybe they have shared triggers? maybe it's separate reasons? maybe the other avengers are around and don't realize the incoming attacks and keep bringing up bad memories? maybe one of them notices the other is freaking out and defends them? maybe drags them away only to also start having a panic attack? whatever. they're both freaking out and just kinda do that. they then bond over it. (this can be crack or angsty I don't mind)

Requester: @shinindragon​ Wish (Prompt/Idea): The Avengers + Loki fight a villain. Loki uses a lot of his magic, eventually almost draining his energy completely when he protects Tony from getting hurt. When the battle is over, they return to the tower, all of them exhausted. Tony notices Loki doesn't look well, he asks if he's okay. Loki barely gets a word out before he collapses into Tony's arms, unconscious. Thor carries Loki to Tony's and his bedroom, explaining to Tony that he'll be alright, it's just exhaustion from an excessive use of magic. Tony stays with Loki, taking care of him. Fluff and with a sprinkle of angst.

Requester: @blancoluna​ Wish (Prompt/Idea): Basically Friga wonders where she went wrong, asks the Oracle and goes on a guilt trip realizing she messed up to Valhalla and back. The idea is, being a queen-godess of family, she should be able to do something about it, maybe traveling in time or something... And Loki's gonna need powerful allies and Friends, like the Avengers, for example Now the same, but with detail. This is the way I imagined It. Perhaps it’s too much drama? I just don't know how to tackle It or how to go from here:After everything that happened, Frigga wonders where she went wrong, not just with Loki, but with Thor who didn't appreciate his brother, Odín, who treated him unfairly and even the servants, Who didn't respect him.She wonders if she could have done anything, and the guilt wont let her sleep until she goes to the well of wisdom, the Oracle, to seek answers.She is warned the truth may be even more painful. She may not like the answer... But she goes in.It is way worse than she thought: in one second she is reminded of all the times she should have acted, and chose not to, and she sees how It affected her family.She could and should have done something, and she had plenty of time, but at every chance she chose not to. And its perhaps worse than what Odin did because she knew It was wrong but chose to do nothing about It.But even more: It is confirmed to her that not only Odín never gave Loki a chance: he didn't find him. He stole him from the temple where he was guarded. He is not just the son of Louffey, but also of Hella, and thus, the actual heir to the throne of Asgard.She was supposed to be the godess of family, and here she was, consumed by guilt and shame, by having followed blindly a King Who abused her children and betrayed his own heir, aside from many other crimes.But Frigga can't just spend the test of eternity crying. She must do something. She was raised by witches!!Will she manage to get her hands on the time Stone? Or Will she just travel to another dimension to warn a younger version of herself? Will this be the beginning of a new multiverse? The possibilities are endless, when the godess of family must avenge her child...But first: for him to have a better Life he would need support, allies... Friends. (Enter the Avengers)
Add-on: Frigga having this vision was just meant to be a one shot that would connect many different alternative stories, all with the 'what if Frigga did something for Loki' as a common base. All of them would be Frostiron 'cause I honestly believe they are just meant for one another! It is just so open to so many possibilities... That I never got to writing any of them.
One of the first ideas I had following this concept was of Frigga introducing Tony and Loki early on somehow: as kids they would be like 'imaginary friends' then Tony manages to contact him and they are webcam buds... As young adults, they would help each other go a different path than they did in other lives.... and when Loki needed help, he had allies to back him. (The Avengers, whom Tony may have introduced to him earlier)

Requester: @brianadoesart​ Wish (Prompt/Idea): MERMAIDS. I like mermaids. Either a fic or art, but I just want more content of mer-Loki or mer-Tony.   I always enjoy versions where Loki is an underwater prince who falls in love with a stupid human inventor by the name of Tony. He's never been 100% happy in the palace with Thor and the others, so he often would go to the shore to watch the humans. He sees Tony working on the beach one day and becomes interested in him from there on. Basically a little mermaid type thing... I am easy to please. I just like mermaids.

Requester: @snarkyship​​ Wish (Prompt/Idea): Finally Tony has managed to locate Loki's whereabouts. And it turns out the godling lives in a pretty loft in Manhattan, with all the comforts and the most advanced midgardian technology ((lighting, temperature and everything controlled by a tablet - the Stark latest model!- , appliances linked to the wifi, and has that roomba a knife??)).Tony decides to have a little fun: who said Loki is the only one who can do a little mischief?? So he takes control over Loki's apartment hacking its system; he starts with some flickering lights, the roomba changing suddenly trajectory to stab him, then blasting music in the middle of the night and so on.And Loki would be so frustrated: at the beginning he thinks about some failure in the inferior midgardian technology, then he'll think to be under attack, but he can't feel any magic signature!! Maybe he'll freak out a little, because there is some kind of unknown entity??? ((And while he may be using all the technology without problems, it doesn't mean he fully understands its working)).Tony will have fun, but he also will discover some cute aspects of Loki's personality, like he sings to his plants and he likes to wear fuzzy socks ((ok it sounds voyeuristic, but Tony would respect part Loki's privacy, maybe he'll spy on him only when in the living room or kitchen)).((And maybe he would help Loki as well? Like, the godling had a nightmare after falling asleep on the couch, and Tony would gently woke him up with music))Loki will eventually understand that Stark, the most clever midgardian, was behind all of this, and well, he's the God of Mischief, he can appreciate a well planned trick. Time to return the favor ;)

Fandoms & Me
Spoiler: this is gonna to be a long-ass post
OK so I did a not-so-little list of questions about fandoms because I needed an excuse to talk and I wanted to do a sort of a recap for 2020.
Feel free to use it, as a tag game, as a 1 like= 1 answer.. Whatever you want!
Also yes the format is inspired by another list of questions about shipping lmao. (I have to finish it btw....)
Tumblr media
I had been reading Fairy Tail and One Piece fics before but the first fandom I really got into is Harry Potter!
Well technically I started reading on Skyrock lmao. But the first true platform dedicated to fics I used was FFnet
I think it was Tomarry and Drarry
I'm really focused on the MCU and its fandom currently but I do enjoy content from other fandoms sometimes (like HP, SPOP, Lore Olympus…)
FROSTIRONSTRANGE. Ironstrange and frostiron are my second faves. I discovered frostiron while I was watching the MCU (I mean.... IT'S SO EVIDENT????) and started reading fics about it. Ironstrange was also evident but frostiron was first. For frostironstrange it was with the @frostironstrange blog (and their fic on Ao3) and it's later that I really jumped on the ironstrange and strangefrost wagon.
Yep. I'm very focused on my main ships but I'm always ready to enjoy good content about other ships I like. Especially beautiful fanarts and cool headcanons.
Obviously. I could die for polyships. They make my little heart go doki doki *loud sniffles*. Apart for frostironstrange there is also Draco/Harry/Tom, avengers OT6 (or more), Sam/Steve/Bucky......... Basically if I can polyship I will.
I love the 2012 avengers fics' headcanons. And I think I have a lot of headcanon I like for HP but it's because the fandom basically rewrote the whole universe. HP belongs to the fandom and Mrs Dementor can eat my ass.
I'm firmly pro-ship: ship and let ship, your kink is not my kink and it's okay, I'll never condone harassment and hate in fandoms. I encourage ppl to use tools they have blocking, muting unfollowing, to curate their online experience.
Well 2020 basically brought me everything. A new fandom, a new ship to dedicate my whole soul to. I discovered Ao3 (and THAT'S amazing). I started actively reading and talking in English (very proud). And most of all: I started WRITING FICS and even tried to DRAW. I mean. There was so little content, I had so many ideas for this ship. I decided to start creating the content I searched for. ALSO I COMMISSIONED FOR THE FIRST TIME AN AMAZING FANART SKXJSKXJSK. And I discovered amazing people to talk with and share about ours ships 💖💖💖💖
Huum... It's really rare for me to like a fic writer so much that I go read everything they wrote. But there are some French fic writers in the HP fandoms who's fics I absolutely love (one of them is Magouille on FFnet). And I think I admire Rosae on Ao3 a lot.
I discovered Rosae (@frostironstrange) year! Their works introduced me to frostironstrange, the amount of content and headcanons they created for frostironstrange is truly amazing. It really inspires me and encourages me to create as much content as I want to.
Yep. I'm thinking about several fics. One of them is Vlad Kemenov ou la Vengeance des Potter, a French Harry Potter fic written by Magouille on FFnet. It's truly excellent! It starts as Vlad Kemenov growing up in the Russian magic mafia's circles and the author creates a whole universe around it. The characters, the ideas, the plot, the several political/diplomatic etc intrigues over the years are so well written. It's truly captivating and a fabulous jewel.
There is also The Black Heir by FirePhoenix8 on FFnet, an excellent Tomarry fic in English.
Revenge is so sweet in French by Elisabeth Canden on FFnet. SO GOOD but alas abandoned.
Very known, it's the most famous HP fic but Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. I only read the first 20 chapters of this last Fic but trust me. In the first chapter I understood why it was one of the most popular HP fic. Genius.
And also An Aunt's love by Emma Lipardi on FFnet in English is excellent as well.
I didn't read a lot this year but I loved:
Worldbuilding is important by Rosae on Ao3 (amazing frostironstrange smut)
Kinktober 2018 fics by Meshkol on Ao3 (god-level written smuts...... Just. Wow. It takes my breath away)
Iron infinity by DuncanIdaho2014 on FFnet, this is an infinity War fix it fic with Tony being an atrocious Gary Tsu. It's one of the first mcu fics I read and I have a fond spot for epic Gary Tsu (and Mary Sue as well).
Poetic Justice by Limmet. OF COURSE, a true frostiron reference. the first longfic I read in English.
Collared by HogwartsToAlexandria, an amazing ironstrange fic....... Wow. WOW. So well written..... And I love D/s fics......
Il souriait by Asrial on FFnet in French.... It's Tony being Ares' reincarnation and WOW. WOOW. BAMF Tony Stark, homoerotism, interesting spiritual vision
Shit I forgot to put this number. It's the ghost-question.
My favorite fanartists are @sed269, @Kraionis, @Blackrain1019 (on Twitter), @hackedmotionsensors, @fu-king-liar, mokonosuke7, @batwynn..... OH MY GOD THERE IS SO MUCH INCREDIBLY TALENTED AND AMAZING ARTISTS I WANT TO THANK THEM SO MUCH. Their art is always breathtaking 😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖💖💖 I honestly can't list all the awesome fanartists we're blessed to have.
Literally all of the fanarts of the artists listed above lmao. ❤️ But ok, I'm fond of every frostironstrange fanarts, I always keep a list of them lmaooo. (especially fond of the one I commissioned of course 💖💖💖)
I love all these ppl giving recs and headcanons for their ships. It's so precious. Thank you so much.
I also love ppl creating incorrect quotes like @shinindragon for frostiron, @salty-ironstrange-shipper and @stark-strange-love2 for ironstrange.
Currently my wallpaper is this absolutely breathtaking and gorgeous fanart by @sed269 💕💕💕💕 I can't express how much this is truly an outstanding work of art. My love for it is unlimited.
Tumblr media
20. Okay, to be perfectly honest I almost created this list of questions only for this question and the next.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
21.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
22. Well. I always have so many ideas I'm overwhelmed most of the time but I love creating things (fics, headcanons, incorrect quotes...) with these ideas to share them.
Content call content. Ideas call ideas.
Also, my advice is: ALWAYS NOTE YOUR IDEAS. ALL OF THEM. even the silly ones, the embarrassing ones, the most self-indulgent ones... Bc no u won't remember clearly all of them without noting them. Bc they can always grow into more. Bc the more you note, the more you have ideas
23. There are so many WIPs I'm excited for.... I think one day I'll dedicate a whole thread/post about them. (I feel too lazy to talk about all of them rn lmao)

Writer Asks: 6, 7, 12
6. What element of writing do you find comes easily?
Two elements, actually.  Writing humor into a fic and getting characters’ voices down, particularly in fanfiction because there are plenty of examples of hearing the characters’ voices, studying their mannerisms and facial expressions.  It’s harder with original characters because you are the only source for those characters, and they have to develop in your own head for you to write them down.  But in fanfiction, writing characters to look and sound and act like those characters is a lot easier than I used to think it was.  
7. What element of writing do you struggle with most?
Probably making sure that there is plenty of heart-stopping, breath-catching, eye-appealing, brain-swooning detail that leaves the reader thinking they’ve just read the most beautiful poetry that touches them...and then also making sure the dialogue as well as the story is as concise as it needs to be to pack the proper punch to the reader’s brain and heart and soul.  
12. Tell us about a WIP you’re excited about.
Well, right now, I’d have to say that Hemispheres is my top priority WIP and the one I’m currently the most excited about because it’s the first multi-part, multi-chapter fanfic I’ve ever taken on.  It started out as a one-shot from a prompt and the way I wound up ending it left it open for more, so more is where I’m embarking.  It’s exciting, it’s fun and funny, I’m hoping for some angst and heartbreak, some moments of leaving the readers on the edge of their seats.  For anyone who hasn’t read it yet, it’s a FrostIron fic that has canon elements to it but will be incredibly canon-divergent in many/most cases.  It deals in the first part with Tony waking up in an alternate reality where he’s married to Loki, and while he’s there, he ends up falling head over heels in love with him.  And that, of course, is when he wakes up in his own reality where Loki is still in prison in Asgard.  Cue Tony insisting that Thor take him to Asgard so that he can convince Odin to let him bring Loki back to Earth.  Because we know when it finally happens, it’s going to go over so well, right?

6-8 for Star Wars or the MCU?
Thanks! 
6. Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?
THANKFULLY enough, I’m far enough away from the worst of the MCU discourse that I don’t REALLY hear it. I will say that, generally speaking, some of the worst people I’ve ever personally interacted with have been Stucky shippers, but I put that down more to it having a HUGE AMOUNT of shippers, specifically that Specific Brand of slash shipper who is more obsessed with “PURE. SOFT. UWU. BOYS.” without focusing on anything of substance and regularly say shitty, biphobic things to other shippers and toss female characters under the bus. I don’t HATE the ship and of itself, it’s just not my particular poison. (I will take this time to remind anyone of the audience who has never heard it that one of my VERY FIRST slash ships was Frostiron. So that kind of sets the mood there.) I like their overall dynamic, I do like the chemistry, so it isn’t a total no-sell, just not something I’ll sell myself heart and soul to. 
I feel like a ton of the sequel trilogy ships that became REALLY popular on Tumblr were ruined for me by the, frankly, disgusting way that Reylo shippers were treated. Like, you want to complain about how your ship isn’t getting enough attention? Fine, but THEN don’t blame Reylo shippers for it not getting attention WHEN YOU DID EVERYTHING TO EXCLUDE US FROM THE PARTY IN THE FIRST PLACE. Including putting “Reylo shippers DNI” on artwork of your ship. Like, if you do that, then I will do as you say and not interact with it. And probably block you for good measure. So that you don’t accidentally ever put yourself in the unfortunate position of interacting with a Disgusting Reylo. 
I walked out of the first film willing to ship ANYTHING. F1nnrey, F1innpoe, Kylux, and, yes, Reylo. Hell, even Darkpilot. But then, as Fandom evolved, the Reylo shippers, as a group, became more and more insular. I saw this happen BEFORE MY OWN EYES. It became more about hating ONE SHIP than about liking....anything else. There couldn’t be a SINGLE POST about one of the others without a backhanded swipe about Reylo in there. (Also, can I just say, as a bisexual in fandom, the way that Reylo was referred to as a Straight Ship™ when...like....a decent proportion of the Reylo shippers that I personally interacted with were in fact bi was...The two of them knocking uglies while having different plumbing does NOT in fact make either the characters or the shippers straight.) 
I still do like Darkpilot and Finnlo, though. Among others (the smaller, the more niche, the better). But my God if I don’t interact with the fandom as a whole, because like...I’ll just get kicked down. 
7. Is there anything you used to like, but now can’t stand? 
I liked Ragnarok alright, as far as the Thor movies were concerned. Not the BEST, but it was a fun ride, even if the continuity bugged me. 
Then.....the fandom. The FANDOM. The ongoing potshots at the rest of the Thor franchise (talking about HOW GOOD IT WAS compared to the OTHER THOR FILMS, which the film ITSELF didn’t help by making empty jabs at them for....daring to actually show EMOTION instead of endless butt jokes?)
And ignoring the way that it shat on two films’ worth of development. 
And took out a significant part of the prior cast (including, not one, but three female characters.) 
And....
Yeah, there’s a reason I have every possible tag for it blacklisted at this point. 
In Star Wars....it’s actually HARD for me to look at the sequel series now, after TROS. And this is something I’ve heard a lot of. There’s just this...empty feeling. Which is hard with something that’s basically a PART of you because you’ve been a fan of it for so long. Star Wars isn’t JUST a franchise, it’s Five Year Old Rachel sitting in front of a TV and watching a boy only a few years older than her compete in a pod racing tournament as her aunt says “That’s going to be Darth Vader” and it’s asking for The Return of the Jedi EVERY TIME because she loved the Ewoks SO MUCH, it’s having a small lightsaber collection when by the time she was 7-8. It’s going to Star Wars Day at Hollywood Studios and not being overly impressed by MUCH, but then getting to see the fireworks go off overhead to some of the best cinematic music ever composed by man and it being a moment of pure MAGIC. It’s...it’s something that’s threaded itself throughout my life for YEARS. And it’s gone. Or at least a huge part of it is. I don’t know if I’ll ever quite get it back. What TROS did.......it wasn’t JUST a bad storytelling decision. It wasn’t JUST me not being happy that my ship didn’t end up together (the ship thing.....honestly wasn’t even the biggest thing for me). It was a BETRAYAL. And a particularly deep one. And I’m not sure when, or if, I can ever love it like I used to. 
8. Unpopular opinion about [insert fandom here]?
Hating the MCU isn’t a substitute for a personality, I’m sorry. I know you’re embarrassed that you liked in 2012, but please, please deal with that on your own time instead of making endless posts shitting on the MCU. I get it, it’s not as good as it used to be. For my part, I decided to bow out after Endgame. But people saying that it’s as bad as CORONAVIRUS is....
wow. Like, everyone copes in their own ways, but YOU ARE AWARE PEOPLE HAVE DIED, RIGHT? 
I’m REALLY going to make some enemies here, but Hanleia has ALWAYS creeped me out. I do NOT like the way he treats her, I don’t like their first kiss, and honestly? I was kind of glad they broke up in the Sequel Trilogy because it felt more natural for me. (As much as....a lot of the Sequel Trilogy can be natural.) There was a really good Youtube video on Harrison Ford and playing predatory romance, and it really articulated a lot of my feelings on that particular ship. I feel like people....tend to make Han better than he was, which is the counterpart to Dudebros imprinting on him and making him worse than he was.

Seventh Day of Ficmas: Would You Do It All the Same?
Frostiron time!! This series is near and dear to my heart, perhaps one of my favorite series of all time.
Reasons to read:
almost 300k words and complete!!
time travel fix-it - who doesn’t love these???
Smutty scenes are in a separate fic from the main story so if those aren’t your thing you never have to read them and you won’t miss out on anything.
Listen it’s yet another Team Tony fic with what’s probably some Team Cap bashing, look I’m not really sorry, I just got really salty after CACW and so my tolerance for MCU!Steve is almost zero
Rhodey and Jarvis are both hella awesome
Darcy and Jane and Tony are friends and it’s Good Content
Wakanda and Tony content
Thor is a sweetheart
SCIENCE BROS!!!
the way Wanda (as a villain) is dealt with..... *chef’s kiss* beautiful
listen, after actually seeing what they did with the Soul Stone in IW and Endgame, gotta say I prefer dls’s version
listen the main fic is funny and emotional and overall amazing
there’s an offshoot fic that is just dark ways the fic could have gone and it is Cathartic in the extreme
Seriously, I don’t even know how many times I’ve read the main fic and I’m fully prepared to go read it again now. Would You Do It All the Same by @dls-ao3​

Rules: Tag 9 people who you want to get to know better ( just people in general )
Tagged by: @pi-jessicajones
Tagging: If you’re reading this, consider yourself tagged. I want to read your thing!
Top ships:
On this blog:
So this is not in order of preference, just as they spring to mind. All my ships are important to me, but naturally I have ones that really work for me even outside of what I share with partners, the ones that I end up thinking about for my own fan-crazed enjoyment.
1. Frostiron. I mean, you knew this was gonna be at the top regardless. Even though it only started from that one scene in the Avengers, I love the idea of the dynamic. The snarky hero/villain combo working to calm one another’s flaws or instead crash and burn spectacularly; the MCU smol and tol; the big heart to melt the icy one; the machine to mix with the magic. My enjoyment of it is insatiable, hence why I have many Tony partners all of whom I love for their individual takes on the relationship.
2. Thorki. I’ve said it before. I ship it, have since about 3 months into making this blog. It’s only recently I’ve started opening my doors to playing it, with appropriate tagging. I know it’s uncomfortable for some depending on how you approach fiction and how it meets with reality, or that it just doesn’t do anything for you, and that’s fair. For me, I adore the chemistry, taking their physicality and passion to a different level. The actors are both hot, the characters’ relationship is captivating and volatile with so much to draw on and explore. Thor is Loki’s most important person. He dies for him. They are yin/yang to one another so it’s inevitable they’d be prime shipping material, problematic or not.
3. Strangefrost/Froststrange. Yeah, I never know which way round it’s meant to be XD These two deserved more time together in the MCU (and we might get that in upcoming stuff), but just one exchange in Ragnarok makes for a fiery, snarky starting point. Comic-wise there’s a ton to draw on, but either way what’s not to like? Two sorcerers with different approaches to magic, a taste for the finer things in life, and sarcastic demeanours. This ship has such a great opportunity for lonely wizards to find solace and explore the heights of magical sex. 
4. Frostshield. I don’t have enough of this but the idea is so much fun. Loki spends so much time mocking Cap, shapeshifting into him more than once. They clash hard but that leaves so many avenues: Cap-softens-Loki, Loki-corrupts-Cap, angst abound.
5. Blackfrost/Frostwidow. Can you tell I like the dangerous/volatile dynamic? They both use deception and infiltration throughout their lives, rarely trusting anyone. After his encounter with her on the Helicarrier, Loki is impressed with Natasha’s methods, how they can play one another and expose each other’s weaknesses. The ship’s delicious for angsty, broken souls helping heal one another or just plain messing each other up.
6. Geroki/Frostwitcher. I’m inventing the names. I got obsessed with the world of the Witcher from both the series and TW3 and man, Loki paired with Geralt (or tbh Jaskier or both) is a thirst. Loki fits both the bard and sorcerer roles so throwing him in with grumpy, sexy Geralt works so well imo.
7. Frostsparrow/Sparroki. More made-up stuff. I’m hooked on this new ship too, I swear. Two flamboyant tricksters getting up to mischief is something I never knew I needed in my life but Loki’s not about to let it go XD
8. Lokicest. I snuck another one on the list. Who better for his own company to excite and amuse? With canonically more than one Loki in the MCU it’s practically a given to have them mess around and wilfully abuse the laws of nature. Especially if it’ll horrify everyone else.
Other ships I haven’t detailed that I love are: Loki/Sif (Sifki), Loki/Amora, Loki/Valkyrie (Lokyrie), LokiVision, Venom/Eddie/Loki. These are all especially favourites but doesn’t mean I don’t love all the other ships I have!
In general/other fandoms:
1. John Crichton/Aeryn Sun - Farscape
2. Londo and G’kar - Babylon 5 (not a romance ship but a friendship)
3. Thalric and Che - Shadows of the Apt series
4. Aziraphale and Crowley - Good Omens
5. Fitzsimmons - Agents of SHIELD
6. Eleven & Clara - Doctor Who
I’m sure I have a lot more, though quite often my favourite characters either don’t have lasting love interests or don’t get with ones I’m fussed about XD
Last song: Billie Eilish - I love you
Last Show: Andromeda
