I posted a fic in April, and then there was May, which I’m pretty sure I took off from writing since I was trying to figure out how to do my new job. Then I started this fic in June, but dropped it in July (okay, and most of August) while I tried to figure […]
I started re-watching Iron Man Armored Adventures season 2 last night, in preparation for continuing my August fic. I vaguely remembered that season 2 was the season with lots of screaming, but I hadn’t remembered quite how early it started. Does Tony seriously find a way to scream in agony inside the armor *every episode*? […]
I just love Iron Man Armored Adventures, what can I say? At some point in season 2, Gene considers that he may have kidnapped the wrong Stark. Which got me thinking, why not take both? (In other words, this is the story of the alternate universe mentioned in The More The Merrier.) Title: Criminal Mastermind […]
The best thing about re-watching Iron Man: Armored Adventures is paying more attention to the background explanations for things. For instance, this A+ plan shows up in episode 2: Zheng, who has one of the Mandarin’s rings, plots to steal a second ring from Obadiah Stane (who’s currently wearing it). He somehow takes control of […]
As if to balance out the workplace ick, so many great fics this week! Once More Into The Fray, by phrenitis Post-IM3, Pepper gets a super-suit of her own, and tries to decide how she feels about it. (Love the Tony and Pepper voices in this one! “Eat the season!”) two in the park, one […]
Oh, how I enjoyed this show! I wish there were oodles and oodles of fanfic written about it, because I would read the heck out of it. A few random thoughts upon finishing the series. 1. Justin Hammer: turned into a zombie by his own poorly thought out weaponized gas. Way to go Sasha, kicking […]
Interesting article from NPR: Armor And Anxiety: Tony Stark Is The New Captain America, by Linda Holmes Meet Tony Stark at the opening of Iron Man 3: insanely wealthy, possessed of every toy, and traumatized by an attack on New York that has left him restless, anxious, belligerent, and given to both hunker-down security measures […]

I almost never need to worry about spoilers, since I’m usually posting about old movies from netflix. But, uh, these are my thoughts about the movie, so they’re a little spoilery. THINGS I LIKE ABOUT THIS MOVIE 1. It reunites my fashion OTP, Tony Stark/hoodies! Gotta love the hoodies. 2. Oddly, it takes place at […]
Totally skipped out on the work dinner to go to the first available showing (9pm) at a brand new super!local theater — not even half full in the 3D showing, AND there was ice cream! Theater Rating: A+ WOULD VISIT AGAIN “This is what you’ve been doing in your downtime?” “Everyone needs a hobby.” -Rhodey, […]
