inmyriadbitsOh my god I should totally be asleep because I have an important doctor's appointment at 9am tomorrow, but I am not.
I am not asleep, because I just read a wonderful, 21k Avengers Steve/Tony fic OF AWESOME. Seriously, you should all go read Ready, Fire, Aim right now. Her movieverse-Tony voice is off-the-charts good, and she wrote Steve just the way I like him (a really good guy, if occasionally a sanctimonious jerk for all the right reasons, and fish-out-of-water with a sneaky sense of humor). And the rest of the Avengers team is along for the ride, with all the alcohol-drinking, structural-integrity-destroying, sleeping-with-eyes-open, scary assassin-ness and one-eyed glaring shenanigans that entails. And...Thor is Tony's favorite! Tony is in charge of the 80s! Jarvis is evil about Tony's hangovers! There's even a delightful cameo by the X-Men! HOW CAN YOU RESIST.
(also on a serious level, if you like that sort of thing, the author deals fantastically with the Pepper/Tony breakup [I teared up a little shh don't tell], and Tony is so deeply messed up for such a productive person, and the Steve-Tony friendship progresses in a really lovely fashion. ♥!)
