The plot needs to be engaging. Just having Steve shirtless isn't enough. There should be a story, like a mystery he's trying to solve or a relationship he's developing with another character. Maybe it's a story about how his shirtless appearance affects the other Avengers, whether it makes them more aware of his vulnerability or his strength. It should also have good pacing so that the story doesn't feel rushed or dragged out.
One popular 'The Avengers Steve shirtless' fanfiction is 'A Day in the Life' which shows Steve in a more relaxed, shirtless state during a team - building day at the Avengers compound. It's a great read for those who like to see a different side of Steve.
One possible reason could be memory alteration. Maybe some villain has the power to manipulate memories and has erased Steve from the Avengers' minds. This would create an interesting plot where Steve has to find a way to make them remember him again.
I really like 'Bucky's Redemption'. In this fanfic, Bucky is on a journey to fully come to terms with his past actions while Steve is there to support him every step of the way. It shows their loyalty to each other in a very touching way. There are some intense emotional moments as Bucky struggles with his guilt and Steve tries to pull him out of the darkness.
One great Steve Rogers Avengers fanfiction is 'The Captain's Heart'. It beautifully explores Steve's character post - Avengers events. It delves into his relationships with his teammates in a very realistic way. Another good one is 'Steve Rogers: A New Era'. This fanfic takes Steve into new and exciting adventures, while still staying true to his core values. And 'Avengers: Steve's Redemption' is also worth reading. It shows Steve dealing with the consequences of his actions in a really engaging manner.
One great 'Avengers Steve and Natasha fanfiction' is 'The Red and the Blue'. It beautifully explores their relationship in the context of their Avengers duties. The author does a wonderful job of showing their mutual respect and the unspoken connection between them.
In a fanfiction scenario, Natasha and Steve's relationship could develop in a way that leads to her pregnancy. Maybe it starts with a deep emotional connection during a difficult mission. As Natasha goes through the pregnancy, she struggles with her identity as a former assassin becoming a mother. Steve, on the other hand, draws from his own values of family and protection. The birth could be a moment of great joy and new beginnings for them, symbolizing a new chapter in their lives not just as individuals but also as a couple within the Avengers family.
It's hard to say exactly how hungry Steve is in Avengers fanfiction. It could be that he's starving after a long mission or not at all if the story doesn't focus on that aspect. It all depends on the author's imagination and the direction of the story.
The plot could develop in a way that Steve has to earn their trust again. He might start by helping the Avengers in small ways without revealing his true identity at first. As he does this, he could gradually form new relationships with the team members. However, some of the Avengers might be more difficult to convince than others, like Tony Stark who might be very skeptical.
Well, in some fanfictions, it could be due to Steve's old - fashioned values. Maybe he made some comments that were misinterpreted as being against homosexuality. For example, if he was overly strict about traditional relationships based on his own era's norms, the Avengers might wrongly assume he was homophobic.
