Cap-IM Rec Week - Hidden Gems Saturday

Day 6 of @cap-ironman's rec week event!

Everything on this list has fewer than 200 kudos, which is some sort of crime.

Falling Backwards (Till it Turns Me Inside Out) by Aeraneth (@aeranethwrites) (MCU | Teen And Up Audiences | Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings | 5,706 words)

Summary: It’s Nomad against the Avengers, a Hydra patch on his shoulder, a gun pointed at Iron Man’s head, and a doomsday machine running down the clock behind him. He’s the only one standing in the way of them saving the world. Steve doesn’t know how he got here.

blue oleander by starvels (dinosaur) (@starvels) (Ults | Mature | Graphic Depictions Of Violence | 3,136 words)

Summary: It's been seven years since Earth was destroyed. What remains of humanity, of the superhero community, is on a ship, half-lost in the deep of space. But they're not alone. And what crawls through the portals in the aft cargo bay, day after day, is about as human as Steve feels anymore.

near-death cliché by meidui (MCU | Teen And Up Audiences | No Archive Warnings Apply | 860 words)

Summary: Tony doesn’t know how long he's been trapped here in the quantum realm, with no companionship except this man with long scars running parallel down the sides of his face.

More below the cut!

Yang by Captain_Panda (MCU | Mature | No Archive Warnings Apply | 4,233 words)

Summary: It's a paradise world. But it's not home. Steve's journey on an alien planet is not what it seems.

Glass Gardens (The Witching Hour Remix) by Woad (616 | Mature | Graphic Depictions Of Violence | 18,692 words)

Summary: The year is 1883. Spiritualism is at an all-time high, "taking the waters" is a popular cure-for-what-ails-you, and sanitariums offer retreats to restore the health. When Tony is shipped off to one, he is convinced his stay will be an utter waste of time. That is, until things take a disastrous turn, and Tony begins to doubt everything about himself.

shield your eyes (if you have eyes) by swtalmnd (@amysnotdeadyet) (MCU | Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply | 400 words)

Summary: Captain America's shield is a noble, beautiful object that has been used for a lot of things. And now this. It is displeased with this.

Affliction of the Feeling by lomku (@oluka) (MCU | Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply | 4,348 words)

Summary: “I’m going to hurt you, Captain. Really hurt you. You’ll be begging when I’m done with you.” or: Tony decides to whip Steve. Steve likes it more than expected.

Descent by Teyke (616 | Explicit | Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings | 67,615 words)

Summary: A hundred years ago humanity fled to the skies to escape the Darkness spreading across the land. Now the Flying Cities are mysteriously sinking, imperilling every man, woman, and child who lives there. Together with the transmution mages Henry Pym and Lady Janet Van Dyne, and joined by the amnesiac immortal Dr. Donald Blake, High Wizard Anthony Stark mounts an expedition down into the Dark, determined to uncover the secrets of the magical calamity that wiped humanity from the face of the Earth. Also available as a podfic read by tinypinkmouse_podfics

Practically all podfics are under-appreciated hidden gems - these are just a few of my favorites. For more podfic recs, see my other lists: Sineala Stony Podfic List and Long Stony Action/Adventure Podfics

[PODFIC] Relativistic Heat Conduction by BlossomsintheMist read by Pywren (@phyrrhicvictory) (616 | Explicit | Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death | 7-10 Hours)

Summary: Ultron has attacked, obliterating most of the world's superheroes and resistance in a matter of hours. The remaining heroes band together and share what strength they have to get through it, to survive, and defeat Ultron once and for all. Steve Rogers grieves in the wake of the disaster and the heroes' defeat, and no one knows if he will be able to provide the leadership they need--but Tony Stark isn't about to let him slip away that easily. Based on the story by by BlossomsintheMist (@blossomsinthemist)

[Podfic] A Real Boy read by M_Samro (@msamro) (616 | Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply | 1-1.5 Hours)

Summary: When Steve shows up for the Avengers' team meeting, he quickly discovers that the version of Tony in attendance this week is the artificial intelligence. But Tony is still Tony, the man Steve has loved for years, and him being a hologram doesn't stop the two of them from falling for each other. They just have a few kinks to work out. Based on the story by by Sineala (@sineala)

[PODFIC] Mercy in You by Sineala read by Pywren (@phyrrhicvictory) (616 | Mature | No Archive Warnings Apply | 1-1.5 Hours)

Summary: When Tony comes back from a very bad D/s date, in pain and abandoned by his dom, Steve offers to help Tony out and give him all the aftercare he so desperately needs. Based on the story by by Sineala (@sineala)

[Podfic of] When The Lights Go On Again read by Dr_Fumbles_McStupid [and nine others] (616 | Explicit | Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death | 15-20 Hours)

Summary: Aliens have invaded earth, and the Avengers are scattered. While Steve leads the resistance, Tony once again finds himself playing captive scientist. In the midst of a violent alien regime, separated by seemingly insurmountable boundaries, Steve and Tony have nothing to keep themselves going but each other. Based on the story by by seanchai and elspethdixon

[jaffre]

Yvrev Liov Teyk

[haveyoureadthisfanfic]

Summary: It has been suggested that after his eighth regeneration, the Doctor begins lying about his age. The official story is that he has simply lost track. This is a third possible explanation for the discrepancy between his ages in the new and old series.

1, 9, 10 and 15 for the ask game!

1: Recommend your favourite fic ever.

well, that's one hell of a question! perhaps the only must-read for doctor who is Time v.3.0 by Teyke, a haunting and terrifying fic about the time war. nonetheless, it is not necessarily my favourite fic... i honestly don't know what that is. In Due Time We Shall Reap by Thascalos is beyond explicit, but, well, formative influences (aka 'that thing you read over and over again at A Certain Age') are formative influences whether or not you want them to be, i suppose. don't bury me by petroltogo is haunting.

as far as humour goes, The Grand Sci-Fi Fuckathon of Hitler and Stalin by yonderdarling is the funniest thing i've ever read. yes, really... don't drink whilst you read it. runners-up for Funniest are: How Now, Brown Monkey by Liadt and The King of Tallstoria by the_alchemist. all i can really say, i suppose, is don't give medieval kings candy crush.

it's unfinished, but i'm currently putting The Red Rose of York by medieval_scribe up there. Like Gods by Ade. Continuitas by skazka. Mary on a cross by Neolina_W. thou child of my right hand by heartofstanding. (shattering! i am not sure at this point that i am capable of identifying a favourite piece!) Periapsides by avani. No Indifferent Judge by edwardianspinsteraunt. sincerest apologies if you have not, for some strange reason, whiled away the hours haunted by baldwin iv.

of comfort and despair by damnedscribblingwoman is definitely an all-time favourite, and i really mean it this time.

anyway, here is the actual answer: Queenmaker by La Reine Noire (lareinenoire). delightfully fucked up.

9: Recommend a fic from your first fandom.

Le Donne Che Piangono (The Weeping Women) – The ‘Thrice Cursed’ Remix by aralias. The Boy Who Killed Time by Netgirl_y2k. , said the nightmare by patrexes. Burn Your Biographies by JaneTurenne. (i promise these are categorised. they really are.)

The Chronicles of The Oakdean-Smiths by PinkPunk010. Any Port Manteau In A Storm by yonderdarling. (actually, i recommend all their works, along with MayFairy. speaking of...) The Definition Of Trouble by evilqueenofgallifrey (MayFairy). probably not quite so good as i remember it, but the only good execution of 'twelve/missy lovechild' i've seen, so...

17 Reasons Why Romana Is Better Than The Doctor by calapine.

Girl in Every Port by tree_and_leaf. No Sacrifice: the What Are We Doing In Love? Remix by hhertzof. A Life Full of Compromises by paranoidangel. read the old stuff. it usually pays off.

did this say 'a fic'? suddenly i can't read.

10: Recommend a fic from your latest fandom!

What Twisted Webs We Weave by The_Purple_Opossum. obviously.

15: Recommend a gen fic!

Thick Skull by thehappybones. both sweet and inventive

Fics that Rewired my Brain a Little Bit

A rec list containing the fics that changed how I think about writing, changed how I think about the world, changed how I think about myself, or just changed something unknowably but profoundly. (I make no promises as to the quality or to the fandoms since I am a trash goblin, but these are the fics that changed me.) (also fair warning, I am also an angst gremlin and so the majority of these fics will be extremely sad)

Time v.3.0 by Teyke -- Doctor Who The only fic I've ever come across that manages to convey what a Time War must have really been like.

No Such Liberty by Xparrot -- MCU, focusing on the Thor movies The best depiction of Asgard that I've ever seen, one of the best Thor & Loki relationships that I've ever seen (such gorgeously complicated sibling interactions), and this is how the MCU really should have ended.

Missing an Angel by Fantismal -- Supernatural The main fic in this series is called A History of Heaven as Understood by the Archangel Gabriel, and that is exactly what it is -- a history of Heaven, set in Supernatural canon, detailing the initial glory days and eventual decline all the way up to the events of the show.

Four Deaths at a Funeral by shiphitsthefan-- Supernatural (mostly) In which four Deaths encounter each other at the end of Season 10, when Death (SPN edition) is killed.

The Winchester Casualties by shiphitsthefan -- Supernatural The ghosts of various people killed by (or killed as a direct result of) the Winchester brother's actions encounter each other and have a bit of a bitch session. It's great.

and yet so far from death by SummerFrost -- The Witcher (netflix version) The only ghostfic that matters. This fic is, ostensibly, a love story with a happy ending -- it hurts like nothing else I've ever read, and yet it's still such a sweet thing.

ask me tomorrow by Emamel -- The Witcher (netflix version) In which Geralt and Jaskier live in opposite directions to one another -- Geralt's future is Jaskier's past.

Silver and Copper by Heronfem -- The Witcher (netflix version) I don't know how to describe this one, besides saying that it's a dark and strange and strangely lovely mystery about unraveling a curse and unearthing old wrongs and old blood, and also MIND THE FUCKING TAGS. Seriously. Don't go into this fic without reading them, but if you're up for it I promise it's worth it. (Also it's written by a friend, so give it some love.)

After Tedd Deireádh by EskelChopChop -- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (games version) A story detailing Eskel and Yennefer after the bad ending of The Witcher 3 game. Another angsty offering here, but really just. so good.

nothing safe is worth the drive (follow you home) by SummerFrost -- Buffy the Vampire Slayer I've never even seen BVTS and this fic still changed my life -- apparently it's a fic where they actually go on the Glory-avoiding roadtrip? And it's wonderful and funny and sad and it hurts and it's full of life and it's... a roadtrip fic, and there's nothing else like it.

Send us a Blindfold, Send us a Blade by Trinary -- Transformers IDW1 The only fic I've ever seen with that deals with the end of MTMTE and the fact that there is an entirely new Cybertron just hanging out alongside the remnants of the old one, and also it's just... the nostalgia in this is like nothing I've ever seen. It really, really manages to capture the change in things over the course of the war, from the hopeful revolution of the beginning to the grinding slog of four million years later, and Starscream's place in all of it.

Mankind Should Have Been My Business by DesdemonaKaylose -- Transformers IDW1 The summary is "A list of mechanisms whom Megatron has loved", and that's really all it is, but also I cannot stop thinking about this sort-of-a-fic, sort-of-a-poem.

the only thing left out in the light by buttface -- Transformers IDW1 (specifically MTMTE/LL) You'll probably need to know MTMTE canon to understand this one, but it deals with the alternate Lost Light where Rodimus died fighting the sparkeater, and Drift's reaction to it. One of the best Drift character studies I've ever read.

the triumph of time by oriflamme -- Transformers IDW1 The end of the original run of IDW Transformers comics, redone feat. WAY more Titans, way more plot, way more mythology, the Quintessons, and poetry. One of those fics series where the only word to describe it is "epic", in every single sense of the word.

Victory Condition by astolat -- Transformers G1 Look. I've talked about this fic so much on this blog. I don't have anything new to say here except that of all the fics on this rec list, this is the one that rewrote my brain the most.

Hey :) I just saw your previous ask and do you have any fic where Tony's convinced the team hates him? (Pre-cw) I love them too ^^

Hi there! Let me start by congratulating you for your fantastic taste lol. I wasn’t sure if you meant whether I have written such a fic or whether I can rec any, so I’ll just go with both, hope you don’t mind!

I’ve written one fic that might meet these criteria, which you can find here. (It’s a high school AU but otherwise it absolutely fits.)

Now as for others I can recommend:

[Please check the tags of these fics before you read them if you want to avoid any triggers, as I won’t put any warnings or even specific pairings into these recs]

and you needed someone to show you the way by SailorChibi: This precious gem is basically 25k of Tony revealing how little he thinks of himself whilst kidnapped, and a very pissed off team coming to his rescue. There’s also a pretty side-dash of soulmate angst. I also recommend Tony Stark, Pokemon Trainer (nobody appreciates how much Tony does for the team) and hold the things you wanna say (in which Tony works himself into exhaustion because he doesn’t consider himself part of the team) from the same author

First Impressions and Second Chances by lilsmartass: A beautiful, heartbreaking series in which the Avengers do in fact start out bullying Tony until things come to a head- and then have to deal with the fall-out. (There’s a happy ending, I promise!)

Breathe by Avengerz: In which a villain buries Tony alive and convinced the team won’t come to save him. I almost died reading the first part (and would’ve offered the author my soul for the second one, but it was written before I got the chance.)

Not a special snowflake by Annehiggins: Tony rants to his kidnappers about all the reasons why he’s a worthless hostage- only the Avengers hear it too, and they are not impressed. I just love this concept.

Irreplaceable by orphan_account: Another kidnapping in which Tony’s convinced he isn’t needed. The team begs to differ.

Infinite Disaster by Waterfall_Creek97: Pretty much same premise as the two above, a kidnapped Tony who’s sure the team hates him.

And the Sky is Grey by Teyke: This involves a serious misunderstanding between Steve and Tony that gets out of hand. Also contains a protective JARVIS, which is in itself worth the read.

Somebody’s Hero by EternalSheWolf: I gotta be honest, this one isn’t a Tony-thinks-the-team-hates-him fic but it is a Tony-doesn’t-think-anyone-will-ever-come-for-him fic and all sorts of amazing, you should definitely give it a shot!

Alright, I’m gonna stop here, but I hope there are a couple that you either don’t know yet or are happy to re-read a second time! Enjoy :)
