Veldeia's dreamwidth

This is Veldeia's journal, which mostly exists for following fandom people and communities relevant to my interests (currently, mostly Steve/Tony).

Not actively updated, and that's not likely to change anytime soon, either. Still, feel free to friend and / or comment, I'll probably answer eventually.

My old fic, imported from livejournal, will remain here for the time being, but the main archive for my works is now at
AO3

After finishing my watch-through of Star Trek shows from TOS to Voyager, I decided to skip Enterprise and finally watch Discovery. I just finished, and I have to gush a little because:

( Under cut for spoilers just in case. )

So, I finally made a dreamwidth journal! I'm not planning on being particularly active here, so if you want to catch me, you might have better luck at tumblr or #cap-im chat, but feel free to friend me here too. :)

I finished another story! It's the one mentioned in my previous post. Oh boy, I really had a lot of fun with this one. :D

Kludged Together
by Veldeia

Fandom: The Avengers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)
Rating: Teen and up
Characters/Pairings: Steve/Tony (gen or pre-slash)
Word Count: 13981 (7 chapters)

Summary: When he cut his morning jog short to join Tony Stark on a reconnaissance mission off the East Coast, Steve sure wasn’t expecting to end up stuck on a life raft in the middle of the ocean, his hand knuckle-deep in Stark's chest.

Post-first Avengers movie, pre-Iron Man 3, with our heroes only getting to know one another, and about as arc reactor-centric as you can possibly get!

Just an FYI: my first Avengers fic / my first Steve/Tony fic / my n:th hurt!Tony fic is now finished!

450 Feet Under
by Veldeia

Fandom: The Avengers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)
Rating: Teen and up
Characters/Pairings: Steve/Tony, Jarvis, Bruce, Natasha
Word Count: 23997 (15 chapters)

“So. Sitrep," Tony said aloud, mainly to keep himself sane. "I'm stuck in a cave with no way to communicate to the outside world that I'm alive, and there's at least a couple of hundred feet of rock between me and help. The way I came in is definitely blocked, and I'm sporting the most spectacular compound fracture which will no doubt make moving around a bit – interesting. Plan of action... Trying to get out on my own might be a challenge.”

Or, cave rescue, Avengers style. Takes place at some non-specific point in time after Iron Man 3 and before Age of Ultron. Established Steve/Tony, though it's mainly in the background.

Wow, my last post here was five years ago, I had no idea it had been *that* long. Truth be told though, I wasn't expecting to post on this account ever again. With a degree, a day job and a bunch of real life hobbies and things that take a lot of time, I didn't think I'd have the time to actively write anything anywhere. I have been lurking, though, and reading plenty of fic during those five years. (And I wrote a few ficlets a bit less than a year ago for a rather random TV show, which are on ff.net, and nothing spectacular.)

Then, I went to see Age of Ultron, and although I didn't like that as much as some of the other Marvel films, I did like it, and then I did a marathon of all three Iron Man movies afterwards, and a plotbunny attacked me. Viciously. A perfectly formulaic "our hero is in trouble and his friends need to rescue him" hurt/comfort sort of plotbunny. The sort that most of my stories have always been. And now I've spent the last couple of weeks just consumed by this fic. It's like an addiction. All I think about during the day at work is that I want to go home and write some more. I'd almost forgotten what it was like.

I want to finish the story before I post it anywhere, because I'm slightly concerned that it will slip my grasp before I'm all done, and I don't want to post forever unfinished WIPs. But, consider this a heads-up that I might be posting something soon-ish. Something with the Avengers, plenty of hurt!Tony, and sort of implied but not blatant Steve/Tony, which I've never written before. And it takes place underground.

It's been a while since I've posted anything, and I probably won't be posting again in a while (haven't had the time nor the inspiration to write any fic in ages), but I just saw Iron Man 2, and I feel like I sharing my first impressions! (And ranting a bit.)
