Avengers Fanfiction: Behind the Masks and Monitors Masterpost
Summary: Steve/Tony. Meta!AU. BNF cap_usa comes back from a 7 year hiatus, fandom rejoices, and users begin to wonder why the LJ servers are always crashing. (Hint: it isn’t the Russians this time.)
Warnings: mentions of post-traumatic stress disorder, mention of past child neglect/abuse, minor character death "offscreen"
Pairings: Steve/Tony, Thor/Loki, Clint/Natasha, Bucky/Pepper
Current Word Count: ~21,000
Status: Work In Progress
PLEASE NOTE: Set in MCU-verse (Marvel Cinematic Universe - a.k.a. the movies). Also, the S.H.I.E.L.D fandom mentioned in this fic is completely fabricated, though there is a comic series (which has a totally different plot to what I'm writing here).
1 | 2 | 3 | 4* | 5* | tbc...
(chapters with an asterisk are the latest updates)
Notes: Since Merlin and Sherlock fandoms have their own versions of this trope (which will probably be more worth your while reading than this), I figured the Avengers could do with one. Actually, that's a horrible, horrible lie. This monster of a fic started because I wanted to write cat!Jarvis and cat!Dummy living with Tony. XD
1) Oh my God, I hate LJ character limits. SMH.
2) Wait, LJ coding is even worse. Shoot me. Y U NO WORK?
3) Sudden realisation that I could've used the Young Avengers as a fandom instead of making one up. *headdesk*
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO READ THIS IN YOUR JOURNAL'S LAYOUT OR MY DEFAULT JOURNAL LAYOUT. PLEASE READ WITH THE HANDLE ?format=light ON THE URL. Otherwise the formatting is just horrific.
For keeping up with updates, I strongly recommend bookmarking this masterpost. :)
Next Update ETA: somewhere around January 25 My apologies, I don't know when I'll finish the next chapter - Loki is just not working for me - but I'm making the effort to get it done before February ends. Sorry again, folks, for keeping you waiting. I've got the entire thing plotted out, I will not abandon this.
