Randomness and fic rec
Just read a fic that I didn't know I needed, but I did. Iron Man movieverse/X-Men movieverse, X3 fix-it, Tony Stark and Scott Summers. It's the kind of h/c that I want to write when I grow up, in that Tony helps Scott after the events of X3 without being blatant about it. It's System Restore, by inlovewithnight
Here, have a snippet, where Tony is talking about "fixing" Scott's eyes:
It must be tied in to the nervous system, right? We run some scans, figure out which nerve it is, and then I'll go in and..."
"And what?"
Tony shrugs cheerfully. "Inhibit it."
Scott turns back to the closet, shaking his head in disbelief. "Stay away from me."
"Hey, come on. I had open-heart surgery in a cave. Twice. We'd at least do your brain surgery in the kitchen."
"Tony."
"Okay, okay, the lab. God, you're picky."
In other news, I have my apartment to myself again after having Donna here for a few days (and Denise, Dena, Michaela and Donna here on Saturday) and so I'm enjoying the quiet. Let me just say, Donna+Michaela+cooking = me wanting to pull my hair out. Heh. It stayed mostly funny, though, and I didn't actually strangle anybody, so that's all right.
