JOHN AND SHERLOCK’S WEDDING CAKE, errebody!

In which we learn that the Million Mom hate-group are total idiots, but then, we already knew that.

Money quote:

I’ve been a comic-book-reading kid for a looong time. A lot of how I shaped who I am as a man and as a father has come from comics. So, I feel I need to lay out the horrifying moral views that comic books have “brainwashed” me with throughout the years. Twelve years of Catholic school can barely compare to the life lessons I learned while wrapped up in a comic book, which include but are not limited to:

  • Do not ever be a bully.
  • With great power comes great responsibility.
  • Drug abuse can only lead to destruction.
  • Racial and gender bias have no place in the world.
  • You are nothing if you can’t stand up for the little guy.
  • Doing what’s right is far more powerful than doing what’s easy.
  • Your parents are the people who love you the most, not necessarily where you come from biologically.
  • Love, above all else, is the greatest power of all.
  • Respect your elders.
  • Hate is easy. Hate is the way of the coward.
  • Hostess Fruit Pies are the greatest snack of all time.

OK this is a rec list for starters foraying in the fandom. First of all - WELCOME!! Second of all - your feels are about to be fully invested into this pairing! So if you can’t cope with feels the size of Cap’s patriotism or Tony’s daddy issues, I suggest that you slip away right now because you’ll be crying, sobbing and screaming at these two.
Now! First of all - follow these tags. Stony (Steve/Tony) and Superhusbands are used interchangeably in the fandom. Also, the tags consist of a lot of fanfic recs that’ll fill up your time and ruin your life and don’t even think about studying because dear god you’ll be hugging your pillow grossly sobbing from feels
StonySuperhusbandsStevetony
And there’s also the very, very cute Superfamily tag, which is Peter/Steve/Tony as a family and Stony being superdads (Peter a.k.a. Spiderman) which is totally adorbs
Superfamily
Now also, follow the individual tags
Tony StarkIron ManRobert Downey JrSteve RogersCaptain AmericaChris Evans
OK now, here’s some general starter essays (which are very fun reads, and gives you a wiki-ish summary of what you’re shipping)
The Ship Manifesto (Basically, this is a must read. It’s practically an essay on the relationship in canon.)And here’s an info post explaining the universes of Marvel
And now, get ready… it’s the fanfic rec time. The fanfiction in this fandom are some of the best I’ve ever read in my history as a fangirl - well written, right in the feels and with great plot. Most of these are quite lengthy. I’ve linked some authors - which means I rec all their fanfics, but I’ve also rec-ed the must read ones from them too. Now there’s a lot of fic recs also floating around of tumblr, and I definitely recommend checking them out - they’ll be in the tags. Ones I put an asterick besides are my personal favs of all time.

Actually you kinda fall in love more with Phlint than Stony, and yes that’s possible. I might do a Phlint fic list now that I’m thinking about it…)
But The Heart (superfamily fic)“Okay. So. Kids. It can’t be too hard, right? People dumber than us raise kids all the time. Not much to them. Just feed them, water them, distract them with shiny things and make sure they aren’t unsupervised for too long. Speaking of which, how long has tiny-spawn been alone in your kitchen?”
How To Royally Fuck Up The Avengers Tower“Hey, Cap, it’s Tony. Stark. Iron Man. Uh, yeah- I was looking over the designs for your part in the Avengers Tower, and I am pretty sure Fury will castrate me if I put in some stripper poles, so I was wondering if you could swing by and see if everything is, uh. Dandy. Did people say ‘dandy’ in the 40s? I have no idea. Ah, anyway, drop by anytime. Yep. Bye.”
Living in the FutureEighteen-year-old Tony Stark is the boy genius who woke Captain America, and now he’s stuck with him. That’s not a bad thing, but between Steve’s wide-eyed wonder at the new world and Tony’s little fanboy crush, the awkwardness just keeps happening.(I’m personally a pretty big fan of everything Closer writes, because I love Suits. There’s a real good crossover that they did between Tony/Mike - if you’re in the Suits fandom, I highly recommend it, it has a fantastic plot. It’s called Sidekick.)
So No One Told You****Between them there’re three apartments, a disgruntled downstairs neighbor, and a coffee shop with a barista who threatens them with tasers. Which, as a whole, that description sounds way more simple than it actually is.(One of my favorite AU’s created in the history of fanfiction, this is a Friends!AU. Oh and this fic? It’ll make you ship ALL THE THINGS. And wish for a group of friends like them.)
No go forth and prosper, my friends.

And welcome to the end of your feels.

And this is why I would move today…

And this is why I would move today…

F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote The Great Gatsby and is one of our national treasures. A true giant of writing.

The silliest thing he ever wrote is the quote, “There are no second acts in American lives.” This is insane. If there’s one thing that typifies the American experience it is that reinvention and rebirth are intrinsic to it.

Raymond Chandler didn’t write a single word of any consequence until his 40s. Julia Child learned to cook at 40! Clint Eastwood directed his first film at 41. Don’t be afraid to be a late bloomer. Repeatedly.

Remember that you have time to figure out what you want to do. Who you need to be. Where you want to go. You have time to fail. You have time to mess up. You have time to try again. And when you mess that up, you still have time. Just so long as you’re willing to work hard.

Congratulations on successfully completing Act 1.

There’ll be a brief intermission, and then it’s time to start enjoying Act 2.

Thank you.
