Oh, Epithets!
May. 5th, 2015 11:52 pm*sigh* Why do fics with the best summaries always have the worst writing?
There was a promising fic that I downloaded to read on my flight to Florida, and I got about three paragraphs in, and just had to put it away. Then today, while waiting for kids during their music lessons, I decided to take another look, just for fun.
In the first three chapters, Clint is referred to as: The Marksman, Barton and The Archer x2
Natasha is called: The spy, the Russian spy and Widow x2
Thor is called The Asgardian a couple of times.
Steve gets Super Soldier x5, The Captain x2, Rogers x11 and The Blonde (with an 'e')
Bruce is: The physicist x4, the scientist x4, and Banner x10.
Tony gets Iron Man, Stark x13, The Billionaire x8, the Engineer x7, The genius x7, The Inventor x4, The hero, the mechanic, the industrialist and the scientist x3.
Add to this a multitude of adjectives, like annoyed (The annoyed physicist) Prickly (the prickly billionaire) etc.
And this is just HALF WAY through the fic. And there wasn't even any sex! Too bad, as I can only imagine how hot it would have been!
"Take me," says the horney Super Soldier, sliding his hands down the rippling abs of the trembling Philanthropist. Rodgers knew of his billionaire boyfriend's playboy past, but despite his moral upbringing in the depression era 30's, he was fine with it. Now, in the penthouse suite of Stark's Avengers Tower in New York, the genius, engineer inventor only had eyes for him.
"God," gasped the dark haired, goateed industrialist, "Rogers, the super soldier serum that was injected into you back during the second world war by the turncoat German doctor has turned you into a blonde, muscular sex god."
"Inorite?" giggled the former best friend of the Winter Soldier, proud of his use of modern internet terms, despite his 70 years lost in the ice when he bravely went down in the plane run by the Red Skull.
Okay, that's about all I can manage right now. If anyone would like to add to this, we can put it up on ff.net!
ETA: While I have you here, recc me your very fav Steve/Tony fics! I'd prefer them to not be AU's, but I'm willing to give them a try as well. Thanks!
