Fandom: Marvel
Subject: Loki/Tony
Title: Sell My Soul
Warnings/Notes: There are some spoilers for Thor, Ironman 1 and 2, and the Avengers, but that should probably be a given coming into this. For
knowmefirst, who probably knew this was the pairing I would choose because I have all the Loki/Tony feels. I hope you enjoy bb!
It’s no secret that I positively adore this pairing. In the Marvel fandom, this is my OTP. Loki and Tony just fit in a way I don’t see many of the characters doing. Their stories are so similar, differentiating only in their choices. Both are what the other could have become had different choices been made.
They were both disappointments to their fathers, and constantly searching for love. They are both insanely intelligent, geniuses in their respective worlds. What they could do if they teamed up would be unbelievable. And both found out they were exactly what they hated more than anything when Loki discovered the origin of his birth and Tony realized exactly how his weapons were being used. And that’s where their paths diverged. Loki sought to destroy, and Tony decided to never create weapons that could be turned upon innocents again. But if different choices had been made, each could have been the other.
I think Tony could help Loki heal in a way no one else could. He gets Loki, gets where he’s coming from and why he made certain choices. And I think Loki needs someone to truly identify with before he can even begin to pull himself back from the terrible road he’s heading down. I also believe Loki needs to save someone, and Tony has his own darkness, his own demons, and I don’t know if he’s ever had anyone stay with him just for him, and not also because they worked for Stark Industries or were a part of the Avengers. Loki would have no ties to Tony except the plain and simple desire for his company.
I don’t think their relationship would be easy. I think it would start off completely about sex, because they both understand sex. But quickies and one night stands would slowly devolve into something more. They’d talk a little bit more than they’d use to, and eventually one of them would stay the night. They’d realize they weren’t enemies anymore, at least not with each other, and more choices would have to be made, because they wouldn’t be able to stay lovers but be at war with each other.
I really love this pairing, and if anyone wants a ton of fic recs or just wants to discuss meta, please hit me up. I’m totally down for it.
bad things
jace everett
I'm the kind to sit up in his room
Heart sick and eyes filled up with blue
I don't know what you've done to me
But I know this much is true
I wanna do bad things with you
kill of the night
gin wigmore
The street's a liar
I'm gonna lure you into the dark
My cold desire
To hear the boom, boom, boom of your heart
The danger is I'm dangerous
And I might just tear you apart
keep me
brendan benson
Keep me busy, baby
Keep me satisfied
Keep me coming back for more
Keep me on a leash
Keep me close at heart
Keep me face down on the floor
Keep me guessing, baby
Keep me in the dark
Keep me under lock and key
Keep me anyway you want
Just don't ever set me free.
sell my soul
jill tracy
Glass snakes on the windowpane
Tremble in the pouring rain
Come wrap your cloven foot
Around my high-heeled throne
Captivate the sweet machine
Surrender to the offering
Ashes and alibis
We all go down
undisclosed desires
muse
You trick your lovers
That you're wicked and divine
You may be a sinner
But your innocence is mine
just tonight
the pretty reckless
Do you understand who I am, do you wanna know?
Can you really see through me now?
I have got to go
Just tonight
I won't leave
And I’ll lie and you'll believe
Just tonight
I will see that its all because of me
all fall down
onerepublic
Yeah God love your soul and your aching bones
Take a breath, take a step, meet me down below
Everyone's the same
My fingers to my toes
We just can't get a ride
But we're on the road
If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's when you find me
two of a kind
the alternate routes
And we both walk
Through sight and through sound
You know you’re welcome to ask me
But you know exactly what it is that I want
We’re two of a kind
Two on the same side
lovers in a dangerous time
the barenaked ladies
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes you're made to feel as if your love's a crime
Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
Got to kick at the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight
comatose
skillet
I don't wanna live
I don't wanna breathe
'less I feel you next to me
You take the pain I feel
Wakin' up to you never felt so real
I don't wanna sleep
I don't wanna dream
Cause my dreams don't comfort me
The way you make me feel
Wakin' up to you never felt so real
