Woke up early this morning, and thus...EARLY FRIDAY RECCS!

All Avengers this week.

Straight On 'Til Morning by arsenicarcher: Thor and Jane have a baby, and Tony has a million issues with it, but he cowboys up anyway because he's Tony Stark goddammit. I love the exploration of how Tony is and isn't damaged by his own childhood, and the found-family nature of the story. And also I'm beginning to suspect I like kidfic more than I let on. And also how hard is it to find good Tony/Pepper? G-rated; Thor/Jane, Tony/Pepper, Clint/Coulson.

escape from new york by beardsley: So, sex pollen happens, and Steve Rogers is literally the only person in the entire city unaffected by it, until Bucky gets back from a mission. I love the way Steve and Bucky are pals in this, and also something more; it's just a fun story about what amounts to a very sexy temporary zombie apocalypse. I do want to warn that, given all of NYC gets dosed with sex pollen, it could be read as dubcon and may be unsettling for people with consent issues. Explicit; Steve/Bucky, with some other background ships.

It Started With An Idea by madness_and_smiles: How much do I love that there is more comicsverse Hawkeye being written? I LOVE IT A LOT. This entire fic is comicsverse heavy; basically, the Avengers rumor mill is running strong and nobody -- both Hawkeyes, Spider-man, Captain Marvel, Spiderwoman, Thor, Wolverine, nobody -- seems quite sure whether Steve and Tony are doing it. Or were ever doing it. Or want to be doing it. Teen and Up; Clint/Jessica (in the past), Steve/Tony, very slight Carol/Jessica.

Honestly, the only Pepper Potts that really worked for me was the movie. Movie Pepper seems to me like the kind of woman who wouldn't get addicted to her own personal armor suit like she did in the comics.

Comics have warped my world in so many ways. The other day I was sitting in a waiting room, waiting for my name to be called, and the receptionist called Jessica Drew. I got funny looks when I laughed, even after I explained that I laughed because Jessica Drew is Spider-Woman, and I was just... reading... this... You know what? Never mind. I'll just nerd quietly here. No one look at me. This is not the nerd you are looking for.

You'd think someone named Jessica Drew would already know SHE IS SPIDERWOMAN.

I mean, fuck, if my name were Clint Barton or Steve Rogers I would own an appropriate t-shirt.

I do own a Sam Vimes AMCW Watchman's badge.

Sure, my daughter doesn't even use her first name and at four years old she knows damn well that she bears the Witchblade.

Have you read "The Love Song of James Bond" by fightyourdragon? Based on the Skyfall canon, it starts with Q taking Bond off to heal emotionally after M's murder, then trips after about 10 chapters and falls into plot rather than PWP.

I'm....not really a Bond fan, I think I probably wouldn't understand what's going on.

Read one you might like the other day, and it's about awkward family gatherings, so it's seasonal!

Phil Coulson Plus One (http://archiveofourown.org/works/501947) by Tawabids
Phil Coulson's taken Clint home for his mother's birthday. The problem is, Phil's family are rich, privileged, and ridiculously numerous, and Clint can't help but feel a bit overwhelmed by it all. But then a Lovecraftian monster from another dimension turns up and tries to eat the Hamptons, so it's okay. That's something Clint knows how to deal with.

Oh, I've read that one! Phil's Horrible Family. :D
