Gen fic, Tony has embedded the armor into his skin

[wolfshadow17.livejournal.com]

Hi all! I spent a few hours looking for this fic without much luck. From what I remember, this is after the civil war and the avengers need to come together only Tony is kind of different and wears long sleeved shirts exclusively. There are hints throughout (he confides in Bruce and Thor, leaps into action without his armor but then it forms around him) until he gets kidnapped. The Avengers stage a rescue only to find Tony rescuing himself. His shirt gets ripped up, revealing gold lines all over his chest from where he’s embedded the armor into his skin. Pretty sure Steve or Clint are horrified and ask Tony what he’s done to himself.

Please help me find it, it’s driving me nuts!

Hey I am currently looking into this. As far as I’ve gone through the whole h/c & tony stark tags in the past year and a half my brain cannot seem to recall anything like that.
And believe had I seen it my brain would be like a light bulb and waving flag going off like crazy

Maybe you recall which site it was (I have spent year &1/2 at least going through AO3 & FFN so....)

I’m pretty sure that it was AO3 because I remember them referencing official concept art for Tony’s new suit for Avengers: Infinity War (link https://tonys-ass.tumblr.com/post/179725582866/ok-listen-even-the-new-arc-reactor-and-the-suit) as their inspiration for the fic

There’s one that involves the at our embedded in his skin, it may not be quite right but it’s the closest I found. It’s ‘Have I changed’
