when you think about it fanfiction is actually amazing
there are thousands of brilliantly written novel-length stories kids wrote from their own brains about characters and shows/books/movies they love all twined into the internet and other kids read these 50k+ stories in their own time and invest themselves in it
nobody’s being paid to write it and nobody’s being told to read it, people do it because they legitimately enjoy it
that is just kind of amazing
100% in agreement about the amazing (somewhat selfless) creation process that drives fic, but kids? Sure, some kids do. I did, at 13 and 14 and 16 and 18 and on, never quite a kid. Kids?
The miracle of fanfiction is that we’re 15 and 30 and 60 and still love and want to work on the same ideas and things for each other. Some of us have a math test in the morning and some of us have master’s degrees, and we’re all here rowing merrily away on our ships of choice.

What? Dear, dear tumblr: please make the migration over to Archive of Our Own. Therein you will find all the science boyfriends smut / stories you could ask for (also any pairing, kink, or ship ever), and you can sort by date published, word count, rating, #of hits on a story, etc.
So if one wanted to read some Science Bros fics…
I have a craving for Bruce/Tony this morning. I don’t even know where to look. Any suggestions/links? ;u;
And perhaps some Stark Spangled Banner too.
Lovely tumblr people, if you do not already do so, start hanging around the wonderful fan-run nonprofit Archive of Our Own (www.archiveofourown.org) when you’re looking to get your fic fix.
There you’ll find well-formatted frequently mind-bogglingly awesome works of fics and fanart. AO3’s strength is that you can always return to a set tag page a bit like tumblr (for example, here is the main one for our beloved Science Boyfriends’ pairing. Here’s The Avengers in general, here’s Stark Spangled Banner, etc.). Refresh that page, and if there’re new stories in that category, they’ll be there.
AO3 proves that nearly every pairing, ship, kink, crossover and mad idea in the world has been thought of and fic-a-fied, and it is glorious.
On AO3, you can sort stories by the number of hits they’ve received, wordcount, rating, characters, categories, kinks, whatever your preference and poison. You can download stories for reading in other formats and save your favorites. If you’d like to post fic there and need an invite, let me know as I have a couple. Requesting from the site shouldn’t take long either.
Reading and commenting don’t require any sort of sign-up, though, and once you’ve gone AO3 you’ll be glad to never look at fanfiction.net again.
