Okay. So I don't love and adore gender-swapping fics. But what I do appreciate about this fic is the fact that to make the character of Tony Stark female was to make her darker than a male version, and that speaks volumes of how much underlying gender bias we still have. Also, it was a fairly unromantic vision of her, something that I think most straight and bi fangirls are loathe to deal out to a male Stark played by a sexually alluring Mr. Downey.
But what I absolutely ADORED about this fic was the style of writing - the constant cuts, the repetition, the expansion, the nonlinear nature. It's a style that might not have swung in the 30's, but in our post-modern era, it rocks the house. Love it. Love it, love it.

So, thank you for writing this challenging piece.
