For comment_fic. *shrugs faintly* And for some reason, between the two of them, I'm getting a Kali vibe. Heh. Shining like blue stones.

Um. More an AU concept sketch, really. But I've been reading a lot of movieverse fanfic of late. And I know bugger all about the canon (I've seen the Ironman movies, bits of Thor, bits of Captain America), but then I figured, I'd do what I always do with comics canons. I'd write an AU. Comics-based canons are great for that. Heh. So. Here's a concept sketch for a dark, vaguely Lovecraftian, clockpunk/steampunk movieverse AU:

Title: Order of the Shield - Engines of Light
Rating: PG-13, R?
Fandom: Avengers Movieverse, AU
Characters/Pairings: Captain Steven Rogers, Lord Anthony Stark, mentions of Schmidt, Zola, Howard Stark, Natasha Romanov, Nick Fury
Summary: Awakened from an icy, alchemical sleep, Captain Steven Rogers emerges into an Empire on the brink of war, and only a ragged few, perhaps monstrous all, to defend it. But before they can, he needs to understand his purported teammates, and bring them together. This quest starts with Lord Anthony Stark

Warnings: A very dark, even vaguely Lovecraftian, origin for the arc-reactor technology. Also, see above regarding my crushing lack of canon knowledge, yes? Feel free to correct that which AU does not excuse

Author's Notes: It may help to understand that the primary inspirations for this were Phillip Pullman's Dark Materials trilogy, and Charles Stross' Laundry series -_-;

Okay. So, in the sixteen hours or so waiting for my mother to come back from A&E, where I basically sat in the kitchen all night, I ended up blitzing through about 20 episodes of Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Because I tend to gravitate to cartoons under stress. I've no idea why that particular cartoon (I think I bounced to it on a link, and then just stayed), but there you go.

It's the first time I've really watched/read anything involving the Avengers at all, being mostly a DC girl who strayed occasionally towards the X-men/Spiderman (admittedly, again, mostly in cartoon/film form - those and the 1970's TV version of the Incredible Hulk, which I'm given to understand doesn't count). So I was possibly a little surprised to find myself getting attached to Tony Stark/Ironman (possibly, it must be said, because the cartoon version of him in the black-and-glowy-stripe undersuit reminded me of both Jonny Quest and Tron, hence giving him nostalgia value by proxy). So then I went and bought the first Ironman film. In which I kinda wanted to punch him, but also wanted to pat him on the head, particularly during the build-scenes where he was having ridiculous amounts of fun playing with deadly machinery and being a total geek.

So. Randomly, mostly as a result of my mother going to hospital, I now have a tentative attachment to Tony Stark. And. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations (for fic, cartoons, comics - though they'll be hard for me to get - whatever) starring him? Particularly in geeky, gadget-building mode?

Um. Thank you? *grins sheepishly*

Again, none are mine.
