Here are some of my fav Gamora/Nebula fics, as well as one Gamora+Nebula fic. :)

Steel Heart, Sister of Stone by scioscribe - 10k of plotty IW fix-it with bonus porn. Very tasty.

We are [ ]root by longwhitecoats - 1k of angsty dysfunctional Gamora/Nebula with background Rocket+Groot. I personally feel the sex is rough consensual sex rather than the tagged noncon, but YMMV.

flowers competing for the sun by paperclipbitch- 2k Gamora/Nebula(/Groot ish??). Gentle healing and growth. Very sweet.

missing some pages by paperclipbitch - 7k of Nebula+Gamora, the fic I've read that really captures the brutality of their backstory. In a lot of ways it's also a Nebula character study, even though Gamora gets a fair bit of time in it. Just fantastic.

I was hesitant to read Steel Heart, Sister Stone when I first stumbled across it because incest fic is often not my cup of tea, but I'm so glad I did--it's just so great, and captures both Nebula and Gamora so well! Great rec!

Yay! That one was actually written for me, so I feel very proprietary over it, lol. scioscribe writes such great femslash in general.

OH DEAR. I have more than 100 recs bookmarked on AO3. I will come back with my top recs at a more civilized hour when I haven't worked all freaking weekend. :S

\o/ Don't feel like you have to be exhaustive, though! Just fic a handful this time around. We'll have plenty more calls for recs. :)

OK, in no particular order, here are some of my favorite Tony/Loki fics:

Grass and Gold by thisiswhatthewatergaveme. Young Loki propels himself forward in time and meets up with Tony Stark... and his future self, who's imprisoned in Avengers Tower. He can't wait to see what happens.

Tea with the Hatter by Theorytale. Hot, hilarious and completely engrossing "Groundhog Day" fic in which Tony and Loki kill each other. A lot.

my life with the thrill kill cult by calicokat. Loki is evil, Tony doesn't care, and Pepper is a force mightier than any god.

Extremely Hot And Currently Female by copperbadge. Tony knows he shouldn't sleep with Loki, it's just sometimes he's drunk and she's female and he forgets why. One of the funniest fics I've ever read. Steve's eye-rolling, in particular, is priceless.

in another country (people die) by pprfaith. Tony and Loki take over the world.

If And Only If by FelicityGS. I never new that math porn could be so emotionally moving. One of my favorite fics ever, in any fandom.

What a great selection! Thanks for sharing. I read Tea with the Hatter a while back and enjoyed it a lot.

Here are a few of my favourite Loki/Grandmaster fics! My tastes for this pairing tend to skew to the darker end of things, so blanket dubcon/noncon warning for all of these.

one for the money, two for the show, by Lise (7k) - literally everything Lise has written for this pairing is great, but I especially love this one, featuring Loki thrust into a very anxiety-provoking roleplay situation

Survival Mode, by thespectaclesofthor (22k) - iirc this was the fic that got me into this pairing when I was casually browsing Thor fic after Ragnarok? it's long and iddy and wonderful--it's a WIP but it can totally be read as-is because it's just glorious PWP

Sodden, by MostFacinorous (4k) - just a short and not-so-sweet PWP featuring cum play and lots of humiliation

Trust Me, by spockandawe (8k) - wax play, an especially cruel use of gags, horrifyingly dubious consent, and a superb Jeff Goldblum voice

Ascension, From a Certain Angle, by Tandirra (7k) - I love the gradually escalating aura of menace in this fic, as Loki tries, increasingly desperately, to play hard to get

[snickfic]

What a great collection! Thanks for reccing. :)

I already read and loved the first two so if the others are anything like them I am in for a treat. Thank you!
