[sandystarr88.livejournal.com]

Fandom Category: Iron Man Movieverse
Pairing: Pepper Potts/Tony Stark, Pepper Potts/OMC
Fic Title: for today or the rest of my life
Author: calicokat
Link: http://calicokat.livejournal.com/317624.html
Rating/Warning(s): NC-17 / Sex
Genre: Romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read: Because if you love Pepper Potts you have to read this piece. A new man comes into Pepper's life and Tony is not exactly thrilled at the prospect and finds himself getting involved in his assistant's love life. The author does a wonderful job of not demonizing any of the people in this story and her characterizations are just spot-on.

Fic Title: Elizabeth's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Dates
Author: mizzmarvel 
Link: Here.
Rating/Warning(s): General, none
Genre: Romance
WIP?: No

Why This Must Be Read:

Because it's so believable and adorable. The parents in the BSC were never developed much but this gives Edie a totally believable background. It's very short but very sweet.

I saw this pairing requested so thought I'd pitch in with two of my favourites.

Two Kinds of Ice Cream, by VR Trakowski

[funkyinfishnet.livejournal.com]

Fandom: Iron Man (movie)
Pairing: Natasha Romanoff/Happy Hogan
Fic Title: Two Kinds of Ice Cream
Author: VR Trakowski
Link: Here
Rating: K
Genre: one-shot, character study, UST, romance
WIP?: No

Why this must be read: Because this look at how Natasha feels and thinks feels utterly right and true to her on-screen character. Both characters are brilliantly and three-dimensionally drawn with great humour. He's not just comic relief and she's not just a sexy emotionless assassin. The author found terrific little character moments and ideas that just made me smile and made them feel so real. When I saw Iron Man 2 and the scenes featuring these two, this is the sort of fic I really wanted to read afterwards and I'm glad I found it.
