I really like the fanfiction 'Iron Man and Loki: A Strange Bond'. It starts with Loki being stranded on Earth and Iron Man being the first to encounter him. Instead of immediately fighting, they start to understand each other's motives. It shows a different side of both characters. There's also 'When Iron Man Meets Loki's Magic' which explores how Iron Man's high - tech gadgets react to Loki's magic, creating some really cool and unexpected scenarios.
It depends on the specific fanfiction. In some stories, Superior Iron Man might be more powerful because he's willing to push the limits of his technology and his morals further. But in others, Iron Man could be more powerful due to his experience and his ability to work well with others.
One way to find the best authors is to look at the reviews and ratings on fanfiction websites. Authors who have a high number of positive reviews for their Loki - Iron Man stories are likely to be very good. For example, there are some authors who are really good at writing the snarky dialogue between Loki and Iron Man, making their interactions feel very true to the characters.
Perhaps a story where Loki steals some of Iron Man's technology to enhance his own magic. Iron Man then has to track Loki down. Along the way, they both realize they have more in common than they thought, like their over - confidence and intelligence.
A really interesting plot is when Iron Man and Loki are both transported to a parallel universe. In this new world, they are the only ones who know each other from their original universe. They have to rely on each other to survive and find a way back home. Along the way, they discover new things about themselves and their relationship deepens in unexpected ways.
One common theme is the clash of their personalities. Iron Man is this brash, tech - savvy hero, while Loki is the mischievous god. Their interactions often involve a lot of verbal sparring. Another theme is redemption. Sometimes Loki is on a path to redeem himself and Iron Man plays a role in that journey.
There might be a fanfiction where Loki, for some reason, ends up in Iron Man's workshop. He's initially intrigued by all the technology and starts messing around with it. Iron Man is annoyed at first but then realizes Loki could offer some unique insights due to his knowledge of otherworldly things. This could lead to an adventure where they create a new device together to save the world.
Loki is known for his trickery and mischief, while Iron Man is brash and self - assured. In a fanfiction, Loki might play pranks on Iron Man, which would make Iron Man angry. For example, Loki could make Iron Man's suit malfunction at an inconvenient time.
In some fanfictions, they might team up against a common enemy that requires both their unique skills. For example, a new super - villain who has the ability to hack into Iron Man's technology and also has super - strength that Spider - Man has to counter with his acrobatic fighting style. They would have to learn to work together, with Iron Man respecting Spider - Man's instincts and Spider - Man learning to trust Iron Man's strategic plans.
In some fanfictions, the winner isn't really about who is more powerful physically or technologically. It could be about who has the stronger will or the better moral compass. For example, if Iron Man realizes that he's in the wrong during the fight, he might back down, making Spider - Man the 'winner' in a sense. Or if Spider - Man is able to convince Iron Man of a greater good, the fight could end without a clear physical victor.
