Summary: When Tony met Bucky Barnes for the first time, his attention was drawn to the broken wing on his left side, making it impossible for him to fly. Of course, that was the exact moment he decided he was going to help somehow. He never expected for it to develop into being more, but although it isn’t always easy, he can’t bring himself to regret it.

Summary: The Israelite nation has gone to war, Howard is acting erratic, and it’s everything Tony can do to argue with the war council to find the most advantageous strategies for their men. Then Thanos strides out of the enemy ranks and issues a challenge unlike any Tony has ever heard. If an Israelite can defeat him in one-on-one combat, their entire army will surrender. Too bad Thanos is twice the size of any man they have. Enter Steve Rogers, local sheppard and the king’s newest harp player, who claims he can fell this giant with nothing but a sling and a stone.
Whether he can manage it or not, Tony is just trying to figure out how you get to looking like that by tending sheep…

Summary: “I am on Fire, watch me burn; awaiting the wretched tide to turn…” - Peter Valentyne, [x]
Tony imagines laying his hands on Barnes’ skin and watching it redden and welt. He imagines bubbling burns with the shape of the whirls of his fingerprints visible in the white, weeping lines on the meat of Barnes’ shoulders or the inside of his thighs. He thinks about wrapping his hands around Barnes’ throat and leaving a collar of welts there, the exact shape of the antemortem necklace his mother wore to her funeral. He thinks about digging his fingers in and making it hurt, and then watching as the burns melt away and heal and vanish after an hour, maybe two.
or: Tony Stark is a phoenix, and nothing is ever easy.

Summary: On May 29, 1970, the Winter Soldier feels a burning sensation and looks down at his wrist to find a single name written in enduring ink: Antonia Margaret Stark.
HYDRA, fearing the defiance of their greatest asset due to a bond that cannot and will not be denied its due, immediately dispatches the Soldier, to locate, collect and deliver this newborn girl to HYDRA, which will become her new home, her new family and her entire world - to be raised as another one of HYDRA’s great warriors: their Engineer.
But the Engineer is a faulty asset. She thinks things that may get her killed one day. She wants things that she shouldn’t, that are not hers to want. She has a mind and body that belong more to herself than any handler, than any commander she may have.
And if she cuts her strings, when she cuts her strings, well, when you put sheep next to wolves, you ask for a bloodbath.
Story Title: Life Moves in Unexpected Ways

Summary: The Team Cap is back on American soil. Tony isn’t very happy about it, neither is the public, but they are needed, and he knows something bad is going to happen; he feels it in his bones. Fury felt it too and that’s why he came back to life, again and got them back. But Fury, Rhodey, Pepper, and the legal department of Stark Industries made sure that Steve Rogers and his band of merry miscreants would never come within 100 feet of Tony again. It was just short of a restraining order because they had to fight together sometimes, and a restraining order would just create complications about that. Which would just unnecessarily complicate things.

Summary: Tony could sense the self-satisfied murmur of computer from across the room and the inquisitive trilling of the cameras in front of him. Which, he knew on an intellectual level, should feel strange. It should be weird that he can hear electronics talking to themselves and taste electricity like mint on his tongue, but it didn’t feel weird. At this point he was just rolling with it and saving the freakout for later; he also wasn’t discounting the possibility that he was, in fact, losing his mind.
Tony Stark comes out of Afghanistan with powers he doesn’t understand and the determination to make the most of the second chance he’d been given. Even though he saves the world (a lot), the most important thing he does may be when he gives others that same second chance.

Summary: With practiced ease, Bucky took his place, walking slightly behind Tony. Some guests who were still milling around gasped when Tony passed them. He was beautiful, with his perfect gait and the elegant set to his shoulders.
Bucky tore his eyes off Tony to sweep the area. He took his duty seriously, even if today would be the hardest thing he ever had to do.
He was leading Tony to his wedding, after all.
—–

Keeping the prince safe with both hidden and open threats on the rise proves quite difficult. Still, not as difficult as watching the prince James fell in love with marry Steve.

Summary: Steve lifted the card reader so that it touched Tony’s card. There was a discreet beep and Steve withdrew the reader. Tony, lost in his phone, left his hand in the air so after staring at it for another long, puzzling moment, Steve took Tony’s wrist in his hand and pushed it back down to his side.That got Tony’s attention. Tony looked up from the phone at his wrist, up at Steve’s hand, then back down at his wrist. When he spoke, it was while looking back down at his phone screen.
‘Huh. Don’t usually ask for a massage service with my coffee but if you’re so determined to manhandle me, you could at least make me a coffee before my happy ending?’
Steve blushed, both at the intimacy of the comment and the rudeness.
‘My coffee itself is a happy ending,’ Steve could not resist the urge to snap back.

Summary: Toni Stark knew she and James Barnes were soulmates the moment she saw him. The electric blue lines of the arc reactor seemed to glow against his skin, just like hers did. But she kept her mouth shut and she made him a new arm and even engraved his old soulmarks onto his new metal arm.
James Barnes knew he and Toni were soulmates nearly a year after they met. She’d been neck deep in one of her car engines and it was impossible to miss the red star on her arm- his star on her arm.
Clint Barton knew he, Toni Stark, and James Barnes were soulmates the second Toni had flipped over her arm to show him a purple arrow that stretched from the crease of her elbow to the palm of her hand. The same arrow he had been born with.
Alternatively, where Toni tries until she doesn’t, where James keeps his distance until he doesn’t, and Clint won’t let himself fall until he does.

Summary: Tony was sprawled against him with his back against his chest, and from Steve’s vantage point over Tony’s shoulder, the arc reactor glowed so bright it shone upwards like a beacon, illuminating Tony’s face in sharp clinical blue. It should have made him seem ghastly, ghostly, but with Tony’s easy smile and loose-limbed ease as he took small sips from his glass of champagne throughout the night, all he felt was real and solid in Steve’s arms.

The voice in his ear tells him that he’s Tony Stark and he’s a hero… If that’s true, why does he have to run away from the ‘good guys’? The more he learns, the more he starts to think there’s a better way to go about doing things. And, really, who better to help him take down HYDRA than the Avengers? He just has to convince them isn’t not a plot to kill them first.

Summary: Tony Stark loved plants. He wasn’t sure if he loved them for any particular reason, or if it was love out of self-defense, the way he sometimes suspected his mother loved his father. He also loved robots, spaceships, and AIs, but those were forbidden.
Howard Stark was a mean, paranoid bastard, and he was convinced that Tony was a threat to him. At least, that was what he pieced together over the first several years of his imprisonment in the greenhouse. Howard would prefer Tony study less important sciences, like botany, rather than engineering and physics, where he might one day compete with Howard himself intellectually. More importantly, his young son was proving to be too great a distraction, and he wanted Tony locked away and out of his sight.
When Tony first met Rhodey, he was fifteen and trying to break into an MIT science building with a remotely controlled robot shaped like a vine.

Summary: Senbazuru. Thousand Cranes. An ancient Japanese legend that promises anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by the gods. Some stories believe you are granted happiness and eternal good luck, instead of just one wish, such as long life or recovery from illness or injury. Bucky’s not big on believing in any legends, not after all that has happened. He just wants to create something for a change, not destroy. He needs to prove himself that he can be trusted to handle something delicate. He doesn’t need a promise of a wish come true. He just,- needs to do this for himself. He doesn’t need noticing how sad, tired Stark looks. Doesn’t need to want to do something for the man, when he can barely do anything for himself.
—
Tony simply goes through days and motions. He deals with the Avengers, with R&;D, with the rewritten Accords. All of it, it’s nothing new really. He just wants to get things done. What’s new is seeing Barnes hunched over the coffee table, one step away from ripping a glossy magazine apart in the middle of the night. And why the hell Barnes keeps looking at him during the days after like he’s a puzzle to be solved?

Summary: Growing up, Tony had a tumultuous relationship with his father but his saving grace was the relationship he had with his “aunt” Peggy and her “friend” Angie. After Peggy's death, Tony is helping pack up her things when a scrapbook is found that she'd made for him. What's contained within the pages changes Tony's whole world as a deeply hidden truth comes to light that changes what he's believed about himself his whole life.
Talking to Angie, the only surviving adult from that time, and using what's contained within the pages, Tony must come to terms with the revelation that he's not who he thought he was and that maybe Peggy's protective nature just wasn't because he was Howard's son but her trying to show she cared because of her true relationship to him.

Summary: Our favorite trio takes some well-deserved time to relax, and Steve introduces his prized mare to a wild stallion.
Steve tipped the brim of his hat up, watching the white puffs of clouds drifting across the sky. It was a beautiful day, warm sunlight shining down and warming his shoulders. A gentle breeze drifted across the paddock field, rustling the grass. Steve took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh, crisp air, so different from the air in the city. He was glad, once again, that Tony owned such a place as this, somewhere out of the way that they could visit when they needed some time away, some relief and release. Letting out a contented sigh, Steve set his ax aside and dusted off his palms on his plaid shirt and jeans.

Well, in those days, Iron Man was my bodyguard, and Steve never went anywhere as a civilian. He was always in his suit and always packed his shield. These days, the public knows I’m Iron Man. And Steve no longer carries the shield.
It’s not his anymore.
I saw to that myself. It’s Bucky’s now.

Summary: The Accords debacle is long over, and the ex-Avengers have come home. Things are not going well, particularly when Tony gets kidnapped by the villain-of-the-week and ends up in the middle of a freak lab accident.
Seeing things through the eyes of a child sounds kind of poetic, and in some cases, it is. But for the rogue Avengers, it’s a shocking and harsh look at their past deeds, as well as a closer look at who Tony Stark really is when he doesn’t have all his self-made masks up to protect him.
With Pepper, Rhodey, and Happy there to keep him safe and love him, Tony navigates the weirdness his life has become, while Dr. Strange, Thor, and Dr. Foster work to figure out what happened to Tony and if the deaging can be reversed.

Summary: In one world, Bucky Barnes is turned to dust in the aftermath of Thanos’ snap. In this world, though, it is Steve Rogers who dies, and Bucky Barnes lives. In this world, Tony comes back from Titan to a country that has changed in wake of the Snap, a society that is dying, and the only way in the minds of those in power to save the future, and the future of mankind, is for everyone, especially the omegas, to embrace their biological destiny.
Calvary has decreed it: every unattached omega will immediately be bonded with an alpha and will be expected to give birth to a living child within two years. If the omega fails, and it is always the omega who fails, the
bond will be severed, and the omega will be handed over to another alpha, again and again until they prove barren, and then, they are worked to death in the Wastes of what the Land of the Free used to be.
That is the life of an omega in Calvary, once known as the United States of America, after the Snap.
Naturally, Tony chafes, but blessed are the meek and blessed are those who suffer for the cause of righteousness.
