'Everybody Got Naked and We Got Cap Back Day' by Letterblade (PG-13)

Fandom: MARVEL COMICS (Avengers)
Pairing: Tony Stark/Steve Rogers
Length: 4857 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] wired_lizard
Author Website: The Letterblade Library
Why this must be read:

Because there's a scene, where a naked Steve is riding armored!Tony piggyback down the corridors of a spaceship and shooting down Skrulls, that just gets more awesome every time I read it. The mental image, folks.

Well, okay, also because it's an incredibly cathartic fix-it!fic for the Civil War arc (you know the bit. Or if you don't, go read the comicsverse section of the Marvel overview - you'll need it) - the characterization is fantastic (especially the Tony-voice), the writing is smooth, and the fix is plausible (you know, considering). It's also the first fic I ever read in the Avengers fandom and thus can totally be blamed for my current obsession adoration.

The term prison lab applies, another portion of his mind notices, not just because it's Skrulls and that's pretty much their default, but because there's a tall, pale body on a worktable, sealed under glass. Snow White, bleeps one corner of his associative matrix. Identity confirmed, bleeps another. Identity confirmed. Identity confirmed.
