Comics Steve/Tony: : 616! Ults! 1872! Bullet points! Multiversal collision! I love them all.
Other Fandoms/Ships/Characters: he Good Place (Eleanor/Tahani), Umbrella Academy. Clint/Nat, Clint/Bucky, Carol/Wanda, Carol/Jess. Carol in general. Clint in general. Wanda in general. Really big on both Marvel's Avengers (video game) and the concept of Civil Warrior as he exists in fandom. :P
Likes: Fun and unusual situations. Dimension hopping and time travel. Steve's time during the war. Outsider point of view. Teamfic and friendship. Soulmates, reincarnation, etc, especially in well-explored or realistic worlds. Fusions. Genderswaps; explorations of gender and sexuality. Banter. Angst with a happy ending, or angst where good things still happen. Fluff with notes of bittersweet underneath. Places where mundanity meets the superhero world. Early canon and identity porn. Steve centric fic. High aesthetic concepts. Kidnapping. Magic (truth spells etc). Extremis!Tony.

Specific prompts:


- 616: Steve is already fairly awkward at flirting with women (insert the "do friends kiss?" comic panel here). He's been trying to flirt with men (or Tony specifically!) for many years. Tony keeps missing the hint; Steve begins to think Tony is disinterested (and/or that this is their inside joke!).


- 616: Waking up in your past self's body. Perhaps TonyAI, during Secret Empire, somehow transports himself back in time to early canon. Perhaps the Civil War era assassination time bullets leave Steve stuck only a year in the past in Vol 3. Whatever suits your angst and/or crack needs.


- Ults: Steve is transported back to the past he misses so much. He hates it, and longs for home.


- Several different universe pairs of Steve and Tony (ex. Noir, 616, 1872) are actually just reincarnations of the same soul. IDK how to make this work logically but I crave it.


Dislikes: a/b/o, arranged marriage, mundane AUs, non-canonical dark!characters, completely unequal relationships, underage. I like imperfect endings, but I don't like hopeless ones; I'd prefer to be able to imagine that things could get better eventually. Fluff that's overwhelmingly nothing but sweet. Currently feeling kind of tired of Hickmanvengers.
Non-fandom related requests/anything else?: Movie recs!! Fanfic recs!! Song recs!!

Happy belated Valentine's Day, Lena! UGHHFHFHEAFLKASJEF those prompts you came up with are so goodddddd (like that last one? I wanted that too for a long time, but like you, I have no idea how to make it work logically lol). I want them and hope someone will fill at least one of them!

Movie rec time, hereeeee I go!

- Your Name (Kimi no Na wa) - time travel soulmates where two characters mysteriously body swap and fall in love as they get to know each other and the other person's life. After you watch this, please read citsiurtlanu's "I'll See You When I Fall Asleep," which is the 616 Steve/Tony AU of this film.

- When Harry Met Sally - FRIENDSHIPPPP. Fun! A het romcom that's actually good?! It's also funny and I love it a lot. Enemies-to-lovers! A meet-ugly where two people who hate each other suffer through a road trip from Chicago to New York, part ways, and then meet again and again...and become friends. And then friends who have feelings for each other.

I don't know if you're in the mood for serious stuff, but if you are:
- Do the Right Thing - It's sad that this feels so contemporary despite taking place in the late 1980s. This movie is a masterpiece and shook me to my core. It's such a good film about racial tensions, police brutality, etc. and also such a good study on how to ramp up tension steadily throughout a work.

- Judas and the Black Messiah - Daniel Kaluuya is on FIRE in this. I really wish this got to have a theatrical bow because it's powerful and moving, and UGH. THE CINEMATOGRAPHY?! Top notch.

- Arrival - A sci-fi film that made me cry! It moved me deeply and that score....please. Amy Adams. PLEASE!

Okay, enough of the serious films. For a good ol' rollicking time, Ocean's Eleven is a fun heist film with the whole "and our group of thieves is a found family" thing and you cannot walk away from this movie without firmly believing that Danny and Rusty are boyfriends. They are. They're an old married couple.

Fluff with notes of bittersweet underneath...okay, so this isn't a perfect film by any means, but if you like pining, secret identities (sort of), and a coming-of-age film focused on different variations of love from familial to platonic to romantic to self-love, then The Half of It is a cute little Cyrano-inspired film. Nerdy girl writes love letters to her crush on behalf of jock boy who likes said crush too and expresses her feelings for her through those letters. Jock boy and nerdy girl become unlikely best friends.

Some fic recs:

- "The Devil's Strand" - Woad (1940s mob soulmate AU)
Summary: 1940. Steve Rogers just wants to serve his country, but with a dead man’s name on his wrist the army will never take him. Soulmate marks can be removed, but so-called cures have already landed Steve in debt with the wrong sort of people, and it's hard enough to make ends meet waiting tables.

With a bad heart, Tony Stark, a capo in his father's mob, never dreamed he would serve his country. But when a ship sinks under mysterious circumstances, a special division of Navy Intelligence calls on Tony for his connections. He's never liked the family business, but he thinks maybe, just this once, he can manage to use it for good.

They meet by chance one night, when Steve knows him as only "Tony." But after Steve is pulled into mob business and meets the capo, their relationship becomes much more complicated.

- "So I might join your century but only as a doubtful guest" - phenominable_snowman (early canon hurt/comfort, identity porn, pining)
Summary: Steve was like ghost, half here and half gone.

That Tony loved him had very little to do with anything.

- "I'll Take Manhattan" - ballpoint (I don't remember if this was Steve/Tony or not, but I do remember loving this)
Summary: Gregory and Tony Stark decide to compete for Steve’s affections. The winner gets Steve - and Manhattan.

- "Nothing Else but Miracles (An Ancient Secrets and New-born Dreams Remix)" - Muccamukk (616 Steve-centric Steve/Tony soulmates AU)
Summary: In the rough and tumble of the Lower East Side, the only constants in Steve's life are the solid black letters of the name on his wrist. Because even with the law and society against them, his world falling apart piece by piece, and his search for his soulmate taking him to stranger and wilder places, Steve has faith that finding Tony Stark is only a matter of time.

Making this list is really driving it home for me that I need to revisit old comic universe fics again because I've forgotten a lot of them over the years! But I hope you like these. :)
