Rec: Where the Monarchy Is Headed by biblionerd07

Title: Where the Monarchy Is Headed
Author: biblionerd07
Canon: Captain America/MCU
Pairing: T’Challa/Sam Wilson
Rating: Teen [PG]
Word Count: 44,800
Summary: When T'Challa says he wants to court Sam, Sam is all in. And then come the “prince lessons.” There’s a lot more to this dating-a-king-thing than Sam realized.

Recommendation: This is perfection. I loved everything about this from the build-up between Sam and T’Challa to the background Stucky, and Shuri. God, I love Shuri. And Mama Wilson. There are no bad things here.

Rec: The Favor of the King by thingswithwings

Title: The Favor of the King
Author: thingswithwings
Canon: Captain America/MCU
Pairing: T’Challa/Sam Wilson
Rating: Explicit [NC-17]
Word Count: 18,329
Summary: T'Challa – King T'Challa of Wakanda, the Black Panther, Guy Who Dresses Up Like a Cat to Fight Crime or Possibly for Other Reasons, Who the Fuck Knows – T'Challa corners Sam during one of their visits to check in on Bucky and says, in a mild voice that should not sound as threatening as it does, “We need to talk.” “We do, huh,” Sam says, looking him up and down. He’s just a king and a superhero and a genius inventor and possibly the richest man alive, looking way too fine and wearing the hell out of a tailored three-piece suit; Sam can hold his own against this guy.

Recommendation: Oh man, this is so awesome! I should probably start with the fact that is was written and read before the release of the Black Panther movie, but it really makes me impatient to see the movie if for no other reason than I want to see Shuri in action. I loved all of Sam and T'Challa’s interactions, the slow push pull of them getting to know each other. Steve makes a cute BFF, and Shuri is a kick-ass sister.

Rec: Call Me No Matter Where You Are by hannibalsketches

Title: Call Me No Matter Where You Are
Author: hannibalsketches
Canon: Captain America/MCU
Pairing: T’Challa/Sam Wilson
Rating: General [G]
Word Count: 3,282
Summary: Sam finds Wakanda beautiful, but soon learns that’s not the only beauty to be found.

Recommendation: I love Sam learning about the culture of Wakanda and then him sharing American culture with T'Challa. All that’s nice but Sam’s still got a touch of PTSD. But Steve is a good bro, and T'Challa is the sweetest of sweeties.

Rec: Kisses in Central Wakanda by robinasnyder

Title: Kisses in Central Wakanda
Author: robinasnyder
Canon: Captain America/MCU
Pairing: T’Challa/Sam Wilson
Rating: Teen [PG]
Word Count: 2,345
Summary: When T'Challa isn’t actively trying to kill them (or at least incapacitate them so he can kill Bucky Barnes), he’s actually pretty nice.

Recommendation: Oh, they’re like two little rays of sunshine that fill my heart with warmth.

Rec: All That I Am by bretelgeuse

Title: All That I Am
Author: bretelgeuse
Canon: Captain America/MCU
Pairing: T’Challa/Sam Wilson
Rating: General [G]
Word Count: 1,029
Summary: “I wouldn’t even call him a super hero. In the mythology of his country, he’s not a super hero. He’s a warrior, and it’s part of their tradition. It’s not like, ‘Who is that masked guy that’s doing this stuff?’ Everybody knows it’s him, and they expect that it’s him, and they pray to God, or even him in some cases, that he would do the things that he’s doing.”

Recommendation: I can not adequately express my deep and passionate NEED for this pairing to take off. It has long bothered me that no mainstream pairing has feature two black men, two POCs, sure occasionally but two black men that are interesting by themselves and interact with each other even minimally. I can’t say I’ve ever really seen one. (If I’ve missed one and you want to tell me about them, please I am all ears.) I love how Steve and Tony are all respectful when they encounter Black Panther, but Sam’s all sass with “so you like cats?”. Then at the end we know Steve’s in Wakanda stands to reason Sam would be and that’s the perfect opportunity to get to know each other better.
