avengers story

[schmevil]

So I'm working on an Avengers story, the first draft of which is, GET THIS, almost done. inorite? It's going to be a short, bare bones thing that I'll have to attack with a bucket of characterization spackle and a trowel, but it's ALMOST DONE. It's got alternating Tony and Steve pov, with Natasha and Maria Hill playing supporting roles, and some Maddy Pryor thrown in for kicks (honestly, anything to keep her away from Scott). Basically, Tony tries to catch a plane.

Anyone down for beta/pre-read duties?



Unrelated-- so this alpha/omega self-lubricating ass trend. Has anyone tried to science this up and actually explain how this works and why, from an evolutionary perspective, it's an advantage?

I've actually read a novel like that. Well, no assbabies and they didn't talk lube, but Alphas and Betas, basically. The book's called Homo/Hetero. All relationships are between an alpha and a beta of the same gender. Alpha males and females hang out all the time, but an alpha male hanging with a beta female is dangerous. The plot's a Hetero couple who start a relationship and get arrested and then I think the guy suffers 'corrective rape'. Uh, I guess there they were using the alpha/beta thing to comment on queer issues, obviously.
