[sticky entry] Sticky: What We’re All About

Welcome to [community profile] outside_the_mcu, where we encourage you to take your favorite MCU actors and play with them outside the MCU sandbox.

If you’re like me, the MCU introduced you to actors you weren’t familiar with, and you’ve since followed them into other fandoms. Many of which are small fandoms that don’t have individual comms dedicated to them, and those comms that do exist haven’t been updated in years. So this is basically an umbrella comm, covering all of those fandoms.

While my biggest draw is Clark Gregg, Jeremy Renner and Sebastian Stan, this community is open to any MCU-related actor. (That includes the television and Netflix shows, as well.) So while I might spend my time in Hansel and Gretel or Political Animals, you can post fanwork in Snowpiercer, Red Dawn or Master & Commander. Or any of the other myriad fandoms these actors have been in. (The actors and fandoms listed in the interests section are not exclusive.)

Read the rules on the profile before you post, and then please enjoy this community.

If you have any questions you may comment here or contact me at spikedluv @ dreamwidth.com.

If you’d like to affiliate, please comment here.

Thank you!

Fic: Gifted (2017)/Political Animals (tv): hitting the right note (Frank/TJ; PG13)

I can't believe it's been so long since I've written a fic I could post here! Usually I'm all about the Clark Greg & Jeremy Renner fandoms, but this time it's Chris Evans and Sebastian Stan. I hope you enjoy!


Title: hitting the right note
Author: Spikedluv

Characters/Pairings: Frank Adler/TJ Hammond; Mary Adler, Margaret Barrish, Doug Hammond; appearances by Roberta, Anne Ogami, Bud Hammond, Elaine Barrish
Rating/Category: PG13/Slash
Genre: Romance, Drama
Word Count: 12,535 words
Warnings: Mentions of canonical drug and alcohol addiction and AA meetings (and hinted at overdose and attempted suicide in the past).
Summary: TJ heads to St. Petersburg, FL for a much needed vacation and meets Frank Adler when he needs a boat mechanic. TJ spends a lot of his time with Frank and Mary, but when Frank realizes that TJ is ~that TJ Hammond, he ends their relationship. TJ uses his pain to compose the best piece he’s ever done, then returns home to D.C. to shop it around. TJ’s having some success, but there’s still a hole in his life where Frank and Mary lived. When Frank brings Mary to D.C. so they can attend TJ’s concert, will they be able to patch things up?
Notes: Written for [community profile] smallfandombang.
Thanks: Thank you so much to [personal profile] noxelementalist for creating two covers for this fic. I was thrilled with both, but especially the detail he used in the one. Please check out his post HERE and tell him how great they both are!

[community profile] smallfandombang, the big bang for small fandoms, is open for Artist sign-ups for Round Eight!

We currently have 58 story sign-ups and we’re looking for artists!


A 10,000-word big bang for small fandoms!
FAQ | Rules | Artist Sign-Up | Beta/Cheerleader | Affiliate

Please don’t be worried that you might not be familiar with many of the fandoms being written; since the challenge is both multi-fandom and small fandom, we expect that you might not be. For that reason we have given artists 6 weeks to complete their fanart, and are charging authors with assisting their artists with character descriptions, screencaps, etc. Also, the types of fanart we accept is pretty broad and not limited merely to cover art and icons.

So, if you like to create fanart, including graphics, fanmixes and podfic, please check us out!

Fic: The Unusuals/TNAOOC: Whatever You Do, Don’t Get the Eggs Jason Walsh/Richard Campbell NC17

Title: Whatever You Do, Don’t Get the Eggs
Author: Spikedluv
Fandom: The Unusuals/The New Adventures of Old Christine
Rating: NC17/Slash
Pairing: Jason Walsh/Richard Campbell
Length: 13,038 words
Spoilers: Entire series for both, to be safe.
Summary: Richard gets lost in NYC and stumbles upon Stage Restaurant, where he is served the worst coffee he’s ever tasted. So why does he go back?
Author’s Notes: This is my crack crossover because in what universe would Jason and Richard ever meet? *g* Written for Round 15 of [livejournal.com profile] smallfandomfest for the prompt: Unusuals, The/New Adventures of Old Christine, The, Walsh/Richard, Richard gets lost/mugged/author's choice in NYC and walks into a diner... A comedy of errors ensues and Richard is forced to admit that Daniel Harris isn’t the only man he’s attracted to. I’m also using this to fill the ‘character in distress’ square on my [community profile] trope_bingo card (round 3) (wherein I loosely define ‘distress’ as ‘gets lost in the Big Apple’).
Warning: There is one very short instance of homophobia mentioned. It takes up but a few lines of the story near the end, but just in case that’s a trigger for you, it’s there.
Feedback: Would be greatly appreciated.
