Comics Steve/Tony: Any era other than Vol 1 and Hickmanvengers is good, I am especially a big fan of CW and post-CW periods, particularly Vol 4/Heroic Age dynamic (Commander Rogers / Director Stark :D )
Other Fandoms/Ships/Characters:
MCU Steve/Tony: I adore all the things that end with a happy ending. Honestly, can't go wrong with this one! I particularly enjoy post-AOU period, and reconcilliation fic. I love fic which has them looking after one another for physical or emotional hurt/comfort.
Likes: teamfic, competent characters, emotional and physical hurt-comfort, presumed dead, characters rescuing each other, pining, misunderstandings, holiday fic, and angst with a happy ending.
Dislikes:
These are not dislikes, but I Do-Not-Want to receive: permanent deaths (especially Tony in Endgame!), A/B/O, dom/sub dynamics, genderbend, sizekink, mpreg, hopeless endings, coffeeshop/college aus
Non-fandom related requests/anything else?:
Drawings or links to art of mythical creatures (fae, dragons, sprites etc), or fantasy landscapes, reimagining of any tarot card, photoshop tutorials for intermediate to advanced techniques drawing landscapes.

It’s the voice that does it. Upbeat in almost a tight way, like even the instructor is thinking, this is some dumb shit. He follows it, along with the carpet-dulled sound of irregular footsteps, to the rarely-used TV room nestled between Jarvis’s quarters and the downstairs library. (Rarely used because Steve, upon learning the mansion had a room entirely dedicated to a single, remarkably slim television set, had complained about how isolationist and lonely humans had gotten since the forties until Tony stopped spending time in there, and the rest of the team slowly followed suit.)
Now, Steve pushes open the heavy wooden door he hasn’t touched in months and finds, in the vaguely dusty room -
Tony. Wearing tights and a leotard. Dancing.
Or, well, maybe not dancing - that seems like a strong word for what is, in truth, weirdly repetitive, limited-motion steps. He’s got his hands up in front of him, flipping back and forth for no clear reason, displaying to the TV his palms, and then the back of his hands, his palms, then the back of his hands. In rhythms with that motion, he raises his legs one at a time, like an overzealous soldier marching.
“You got it!” the alarmingly thin woman on the TV cheers. “Now watch those pounds just melt away.”
She changes her motion, then, pumping her arms as though she’s running and doing some complicated leg-rotating motion that Steve can’t even begin to describe, or understand.
“Tony?”
Tony startles so hard you’d think the assemble alarm went off, whirling around to face him. “Steve!” From the front, Steve can see that Tony’s not just wearing any old leotard - it’s got the MIT logo emblazoned across the chest, and a strip of black across the front, like a faux-belt.
“What are you doing?”
“Exercising,” Tony explains. He’s breathing surprisingly hard for what Steve imagines has to be a pretty simple exercise. “I know you super soldiers probably don’t need to work out, but us mere mortals - well, I need some way to work off those cupcakes you keep baking.”
“You could just not eat the cupcakes,” Steve points out.
“And miss out on your masterpieces? Steven.”
“Didn’t Jan say she found eggshells in hers, last time?”
“Masterpieces,” Tony insists.
Steve shakes his head, but he can’t quite hold back his smile. He crosses his arms over his chest as if that’ll somehow cover it. “Flattery won’t get you out of this. Who is that, and why are you wearing a woman’s bathing suit?”
“Excuse you, it’s sophisticated workout gear,” Tony sniffs. “I’ll have you know this is custom-made.”
“Really? I thought MIT sold bikinis to all its students.”
“If you think this is a bikini, then you’re further behind on your modern education than I thought.”
“Ha ha,” Steve says dryly.
“Anyway, like I said, it’s workout gear. Jane Fonda? Really never heard of her? She’s all the rage right now, you know.”
Steve glances over Tony’s shoulder at the TV, where the woman - Jane, apparently - is now doing some some weird combination squat and leapfrog activity.
“Uh huh,” he says skeptically.
“Hey.” Tony wags a finger. “People with perfect metabolisms don’t get to judge. Some of us need to work for our glorious bodies, you know.”
“Oh, please, you and I both know you’d look just as good if you never lifted a finger.”
Steve only realizes what he’s going to say after he’s said it, and he flushes, even as Tony’s eyebrows shoot up.
“Really?” he says. “Well, thank you, darling. I can’t say I’m not flattered.”
Steve swallows hard, not sure what to say. Something about the room suddenly feels very charged, and Steve has no idea how to diffuse it. No idea if he wants to, either.
“Maybe we should give you a taste of how the other half lives,” Tony offers, eyes twinkling, and Steve knows his footing here. “I promise I won’t make you wear a custom leotard.”
“That’s just because you don’t have one in my size, yet,” Steve jokes, and Tony laughs.
“You know me too well,” Tony grins. “Well? Is that a yes?”
Steve sighs. He doesn’t really want to do this ridiculous workout, but, well - as anyone knows, he’s horrible at saying no to thing that Tony asks of him.
“Yes,” he agrees, and kicks off his leather shoes as Tony gives a little cheer. “You’ll have to bear with me if it takes me a while to pick up the moves,” he warns, as he takes his place beside Tony on the carpet. “I’m a beginner.”
“Well, I’m an expert,” Tony says. “So don’t worry, beloved; I can teach you.”
Steve has no doubt that he’s right.

Hahaha, this is so Tony. Everything Steve does is awesome, isn't it? :D

Fighting alongside Steve feels as natural as breathing. Tony knows how Steve moves, like a dance he's memorised every step to.
On the other side, none of it looks the same. Like Steve's moves are a little off. It reminds Tony of a sword fighting who switches hands to throw their opponent off. Steve knows that Tony knows how he fights.
Tony could play that meta game too, but using their history like that makes Tony want to roll over and die.
He wants that a lot lately.
But someone has to keep the devils in check.
So he fights.

Date: 2020-01-19 05:30 pm (UTC)AHH This is just.. beautiful. It's so Tony, to not use the entirety of his arsenal just because using it would feel worse than dying.
Gah, this is wonderful, thank you so much! ♥

You know I don't know how to write short fic, but this time it seriously got out of hand. I have a problem :)
In any case, enjoy it when you have time <3
THANK YOU.

Date: 2020-01-19 04:21 pm (UTC)One of my favourite artists, Daniel Lieske, does some beautiful fantasy landscapes as part of his graphic novel the Wormworld Saga. I definitely recommend it for the art and story. <3

I started to make some Eliza Dushku/Faith tarot cards once. Never made the whole deck but there's some of them available still here:

Hope you've had a lovely holiday period, look forward to talking with you more this decade.

Re: <3
Date: 2020-01-19 06:06 pm (UTC)Wow, these tarot cards are really good, I especially like the look of 'Justice' where she looks a bit blonde (like Buffy) which is a nice allusion to their relationship on the show!
And thank you for the link to the graphic novel, I'll be sure to check it out -- it looks super pretty <3
See you back on the Discord server! :-)
