Tony-centric fic searches, with Tony/Steve pairings

[deductress.livejournal.com]

Hello,

Seeking general fic recs if i may?

i) Any shy!Tony Steve/Tony fics? As in, Tony still has all his bluster and feigned arrogance, but whenever he's with Steve that all dies down and he just becomes rather shy and quiet. Or anything along those lines. Just want shy!Tony instead of shy!Steve for a change.

ii) Any fics (preferably with Steve/Tony) where Tony has crushing low self-esteem. I am a sucker for Tony and his fake smiles.

iii) Abused!Tony fics? In any sense, by his father, by a past-partner, or even current partner. However i'd prefer none where Steve is an abuser, and double points if you can find an abused!Tony fic with Steve/Tony pairing. =]

Thank you!
(Hope tags are done correctly.)

Oh, I know I have a bunch where Tony's low self-esteem is especially apparent, but I can only think of one off the top of my head:
Burning Candles (http://archiveofourown.org/works/670435) by kerravon

I have a few where Tony's been abused by Howard (my 'howard is an asshole' tag)
Take This (https://archiveofourown.org/works/500340) by Arkada
Not quite abuse but maybe implied neglect/emotional abuse: Generation Gap (http://archiveofourown.org/works/414653) by JeziBelle
coming out of a keen city (http://archiveofourown.org/works/537909) by isawet (this one's got superfamily in it, if that's not your cup of tea)

I'll come back if I can find more of those low-self-esteem fics.

I'd read the first two - both absolutely brilliant fics, but not the last two, so thank you very much for the recs! =]
Certainly if you find anymore, please send them my way. XD
Thanks again!

Oooh, I'm all for bonus points! Lol, have you read Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own (http://kijikun.slashcity.com/Sometimes.htm)? It starts off with Tony in an abusive relationship with an OC (be warned, it's a pretty extreme abusive relationship mascarading as BDSM relationship) and deals with crushingly low self-esteem and Tony's alcoholism. It's really well-written though and has a Steve/Tony pairing.

I haven't read this, excellent! I thought i'd read just about all the abused!Tony fics, brilliant. Thanks so much for this rec, i'm sincerely looking forward to reading it. =]
Oh and yes, double bonus points for you! XD
