newredshoes: possum, "How embarrassing!" (cap | SCREECHING NOISES)

If you've been waiting since the first time it was recced here, as a WIP, I have great news for you, friends: This, You Protect by [archiveofourown.org profile] owlet wrapped up today at a glorious 64K.

It started off as a hilarious one-shot about the Asset's mission imperative switching from killing Steve Rogers to protecting him. As Barnes rediscovers himself and his humanity, he picks up an incredible cast of supporting characters (in every sense of the word) along the way. It's not just a long and funny story, though: it's got incredible heart and a poignant-as-hell look at what waking up in the future has done to everybody.

As far as I'm concerned, this is 33 espresso shots of pure joy, and every last chapter delivers. Do yourself a favor and read this. You'll be really, really happy you did.

Speaking of which, happy 2015, whether it's already reached you or if it's coming soon!

I've just posted a new post-IM2, pre-Avengers fic. [personal profile] newredshoes says it's gen enough to post here, so:

Title: What We Choose to Leave Behind
Relationships: Tony & Howard; Tony & JARVIS; mostly background Tony/Pepper; background Howard/Maria
Wordcount: 6500
Warnings: Alcohol used as a coping mechanism; canonical implied emotional neglect
Locations: At AO3; at Livejournal; at Dreamwidth

Summary/Teaser: Howard has a conversation far too late and just in time, while the Tesseract is indirectly responsible for twisting causality into knots.


Regarding that "gen enough" comment: There's about 300 words describing Pepper and Tony's relationship from the outside. It's nothing explicit, but it does put focus briefly on a romantic relationship, and I don't want anyone to feel misled.
