Ironman and a Fic Rec

[strangevisitor7]

Well after seeing The Incredible Hulk on Friday, all I could think about was seeing Ironman again. And as if by magic we were gifted with two free tickets.

So, yes, we went to see Ironman for the 3rd time on Sunday. I am completely and totally in love with Tony Stark. (As well as the Tony Starke who plays Ezra Standish but that's another story and just makes me giggle that he has the same name.). If you haven't seen this movie, do your best to get there. I truly believe it may be the best movie based on a Comic Book ever made

I have been reading some of Ironman fic but have no plans to write my own - I have 4 different WIPs on my plate right now not to mention the Spawn fic I have yet to write for tomorrow

My favorite Ironman fic so far? Real Friends Buy You In-N-Out by ithildyn. She has been writing a series of Tony Stark fic that I just adore and captures Tony's snarky banter perfectly. She has created an OFC, Charlotte Sparrow, who is a not only an Immortal but a friend of Tony's. There are other stories about the character but it is Birdie's interaction with Tony in Ith's HL/Ironman stories that I especially recommend.


So, if you know of any Ironman fic that you can rec, please sen the links my way. It's a long time until 2010 for Ironman 2 and 2011 for The Avengers and I need my Tony!

[blushes] Thank you so much.

What's hilarious is that I created the character a year ago as part of a Highlander/Pirates of the Caribbean xover, but Tony barged in and took over the series [g]

Welcome!
Tony will not be denied. Now that you're totally flattered is this a good time to ask for more Ironman fic. [g]

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

I'm trying! Methos is being difficult. I'm trying to sort out the big fight he and Charlotte are going to have over Tony. Hoping to get at least a start tonight.

Methos needs to stop being a baby and cooperate. [g] Here's cheese - hope that helps

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

LOL! Thanks :) I always find verbal fights most difficult. Is it going to be fiery or cold? With Methos it usually ends up being cold and withering.

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

Well Methos can be tough to control. You dealing with two men who are absolutely sure that they are always right. Good Luck

Okay, in no particular order...

Iron Man is definitely the best. marvel. movie. ever. But I think it's a little too soon to say best comic book movie with The Dark Knight around the corner...

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

Good point Batman is coming. So I will keep an open mind [g]
