Day 11

Ask for recs


(I'm doing this challenge a little different than is probably intended, but I've never followed directions very well, so.)

The thing is, I'm kind of interested in the Avengers fandom.

I don't even know, guys. I mean, superhero stories/movies have never really been my thing, but something about this particular set up is pulling at me a little. It seems like it's an incredibly active fandom, which I like. I've noticed it's also seduced a few people whose writing I really, really miss -- [personal profile] musesfool and [personal profile] angelgazing, I'm looking at you!

I watched Thor when it first came out. Twice. I won't lie: this was partially motivated by the wall-to-wall eye candy. However, I'm a total sucker for Norse Mythology, so I probably would've seen it at least once, even if everyone involved had been moderately ugly.

So. What other movies do I need to rent/buy? Captain America? Also Iron Man I and Iron Man II? Is there a primer somewhere I should be reading?

I do ship Steve/Tony, like fedex but I can see why people wouldn't. But in the Avengers fandom over in AO3 they do have tags, because I know that Darcy/Loki is a popular pairing, as well as Coulson and Clint (I... don't get that one, but okay). There's a lot of Bucky/Steve as well, so you cannae go wrong with that. I think postcardmystery over in LJ has Steve/Bucky and rarepair fic for your very needs. AO3 has lots of stuff too.
