cue impromptu dance party

We have 500 people watching this comm.

Let me say it again: We have 500 people watching this comm. And 442 members.

On May 6, 2012, when this bar was opened, we had 4 (and yes, those four consisted of your beloved mods who saw a little film called Avengers and had some feelings and just wanted a place to find some fic and geek out.)

So, in honor of this momentous occasion, I hereby declare it to be Friday one day early. Bring me your squee, your flail, your randomness, your Renner Problems, your Scarlett Feelings, your team!shawarma love, your pics, your gifs, your thinky thoughts, your what-the-heck-ever you like. Today is a day of jubilee, my friends.

YES, YES a thousand times YES.

Tony hates Pride and Prejudice because he thinks Mr.Darcy is a total dick and starts getting offended at all the significant looks he's getting.

ETA: Formal titles.

Edited 2012-08-23 17:14 (UTC)

okay okay, maybe he doesn't hate Mr. Darcy, but c'mon. He has the biggest house on the country block and is STILL an ass? Loosen up a little.

Clint tried to talk Natasha into some sort of reenactment scene, maybe with the picnic and shooting targets in Emma (because did he mention favorite?), but Natasha wasn't wearing an idiot dress and sit on the ground for hours.

Pepper would though. And talk Natasha into it. And get Steve to draw them so Clint could hang it in his room and remember the time someone did what he asked.

Except by the time they do all this, they've moved on to Hemingway and the team hates Clint double now.

Oh God, Hemingway. That's the worst. Just, we're drawing the line at Joyce, alright? Man couldn't think in a straight line if you handed him two nails and a piece of string to tie between them.

Clint knows it's the worst, but they apparently need punishing. HEMINGWAY IT IS. :D

Dude, okay. So there are book club rules, right? And rules of friendship? And the number one of both of those are 'Never inflict Joyce upon the people closest to you. (whether situational or emotional.)'

Steve wants to do Shakespeare, and Thor thinks that's great, because theatre he understands. Tony says that they have to read it aloud or he's not playing, but they call his bluff and star with Much Ado About Nothing, before moving into Othello and then Midsummer Night's Dream. They have to watch the movies, of course, after each play and spend hours arguing over casting and directorial choices (and how could you leave that line out?!?! That line makes the whole scene make sense, Jesus Christ.)

Haha -- do you mind if I friend you?

Tony's issues with Shakespeare stem from his earliest reading of Julius Caesar. But he will concede Twelfth Night. If only to try and act that one out and have Natasha wearing a reasonable facsimile of his goatee. Steve and Clint are, of course, overjoyed.

:D

Friends yes, let's!

Tony sometimes narrates his life. He likes to leave rooms mumbling "Exit, pursued by bear."

That's the best thing I've heard about Tony recently. New head canon accepted!

No, no, Joyce is Rule #2. Rule #1 is STEINBECK.

(Rule #3 might be Joseph Conrad. Which might be followed closely by Richard Wright and Ralph Ellison. And I might not be entirely over the trauma of high school English.)

BUT THERE IS NEVER ANY EXCUSE FOR STEINBECK. ALSO NATASHA WILL DECIDE TO DO A DEMONSTRATION AND SHOOT YOU IN THE HEAD AND SEE IF YOU LIKE IT!

Ahem.

Issues, I have them. Heeheehee!

Conrad is the devil.

The only reason that isn't Rule #1 is because I've completely blocked it from my memory!

But Clint and I will accept this rearrangement and thank you for fixing our oversight. :D :D

AND NATASHA ONLY DOES THE WILLIAM TELL FOR AN AUDIENCE AFTER SHE DRINKS VODKA FROM THAT SPECIAL BOTTLE SHE HIDES FROM EVERYONE. NEVER EVER ASK HER TO DO IT OR GET CLINT TO ASK HER. IT'S DISASTROUS FOR THE WORLD!

I love that you guys are PLOTTING THIS FIC FOR ME when my notes on it from my actual facts notebook were along the lines of:

Tony: Hey Clint?
Clint: Mmm?
Tony: How would you have stopped hte Velociraptors?
Clint: What?
Tony: In Jurassic Park. Be Muldoon.
Clint: I have more than one rocket launcher.
Tony: Oh.
Natasha: Clint doesn't do animal jobs.
Steve: Animal jobs?
Clint: Nothing with poop. It's in my contract.
Bruce: Why didn't I think of that.
Thor: Are you sure these beasts are extinct? I would ride an Apatosaurus like my Father rides Sliepnir.

...LOOK I LIKE JURASSIC PARK OKAY

That's kind of brilliant, that is.

THERE SHOULD BE MOAR!!! :D ::SMASHES CUP::

I AM CURRENTLY WRITING COMPLETE CRACK SO THIS ONE IS ON THE BACK BURNER.

Here is a sneakpeak of the current crack:
Darcy’s Guide to the 80s, 90s, and today.

An illustrated guide, compiled by Darcy Lewis, for use in educating Rogers, Captain Steven (alias Captain America) in the ways and customs of the greatest generation.

Security level 2.

Furby- Sometime in the halcyon days of our misspent youth, we who skirt the edge of Gen X and the Millenials fell into a fad - greater than pogs, greater even than Power Rangers and Spongebob, at the pinnacle of the cry of every child who longed for a pet but was deemed too poor; too allergic; too irresponsible, at the top of that mighty plint we find the rare Furby, a virtual pet who was not made of pixels, (see: Gigapet, Tamagotchi) with a beak and ears and eyes that blinked, Lord Furby of Creepdonia sang and talked and, on the rare occasion of great joy, danced. If you open packet 3Q, you will find a Furby for your own investigation, with the requisite batteries installed. His name is Kah.

CARRY ON! :D

I'm glad you didn't mind that I decided to run away with your idea!

oooooo! MOAR DINOSAURS!

No, please, go for it! I am glad to give away plot bunnies, I have too many.

This entire thread is making my inner literature student very happy. *wipes away tears of joy*

I'm glad samalander didn't mind me hijacking their idea! :D

IT IS NOT HIJACKING IT IS AMAZING

and I have 15 WIPs, please take as many as you want.

why so many!? I'd go insane!

but I have to say I'm excited to read them all! and possibly write this one.

I get ideas, I write a few lines, and I get stuck. So I let them sit until I'm ready.

Currently on the burner:
-90s How To (aka the Furby Fic)
-"Bucky Feels - Sonnet XVII" (aka sequel to "The Only Soldier Now Is Me")
-something called "In Which Natasha is a Badass- Yes Ma'am" which is mostly about Tony spitting food at her right now
-"Clint goes Deaf" which is an epistle and Clint/Coulson
-HSAU3/ThorTheatre which is an abandoned attempt to do a year of "30 Seconds of Mindless Panic" from Thor's POV
-"Loki Recovery?" which is meant to be about Loki without demonizing anyone in his life and also it might be about my mother and so I can;t write it right now.
-"Nat/Clint Buddy Comedy" In which I mostly wanted Clint to be undercover as someon'es secretary.
-"Clint Recovery" which is about him getting over Loki's incursion without having sex with anyone.
-"Angst Vomit" which is a letter from Tony to a dead Steve
-"Darcy 5 Things" which is Clint/Darcy and is the five things Darcy Lewis thought she knew before the Avengers and the one thing that will always be true.
-"Imposter" which is about the team have impostor syndrome and then gelling.

So it's 11, but some of them will never happen.

I need to read this Bucky Feels part one. I love Bucky.

Clint goes deaf and the Darcy five things are definitely something I'm interested in. And there's no way I'll read the 'angst vomit' because it's not something I can handle! but! I will cheerlead you into writing it if that's what you need.

got my pompoms out!
