Looking for a few types of fics

[ananova55.livejournal.com]

Hi, I was hoping to get recommendations for three different types of fics.

1. I recently reread Kerravon's Burning Candles . Are there any other fics where Steve or the other Avengers discover just how overworked Tony is and take steps to fix the situation?

2. Any fics like Does Joss Whedon Write Your Dialogue? where everyone gives Tony the shovel talk and he freaks out thinking that if everyone is so sure he'll end up ruining the relationship then they must be right and he decides to end it? And then his lover rips everyone a new one when he finds out? Basically insecure Tony letting everyone's doubts get to him. I'd prefer Tony/Steve or Tony/Bucky but will read most other pairings except for Tony/Loki.

3. And finally, any fics where Thor didn't realize how short humans lifespans are? I've seen this touched on briefly in a few fics, such as we are not history yet; we are happening now and I was wondering if there are any others out there, especially ones that go into more detail on Thor's reaction.

Thanks for any help and recs you can make.

1. running to keep in the same place (http://archiveofourown.org/works/432390) - Tony's the only one of them who has to wrangle two jobs and he's rapidly running of time for, like, everything.

I'm Just Tired (http://archiveofourown.org/works/741566) - Yes, Tony knew he had an insomnia problem. Yes, he knew he worked too much. No, he didn't need a stupid puppy pile. Seems the team wasn't taking excuses.

Affection (http://archiveofourown.org/works/732110) - Five times Tony Stark's exhaustion gets the better of him, and the one time someone decides it's time he use an actual bed.

The Avengers Take Care of Their Own (http://archiveofourown.org/works/574189) - When the Avengers can't figure out what's bothering Tony, they call Pepper in. Only she can't find it out, either, and they have to enlist JARVIS, but he won't tell them straight out - so the Avengers decide to take matters into their own hand.

Club of Insomniac, Overworked Geniuses – Members: One (http://archiveofourown.org/works/602460) - Tony is overworked to the point of being completely antisocial to get all his project for SHIELD and SI done. The team doesn't notice. Coulson, however, does.

Burnout Phase (http://avengerkink.livejournal.com/8247.html?thread=17128503#t17128503) - Prompt: After taking care of his company, developing new tech for Avengers, SI and Shield, press conferences, charity benefits, debriefings, meetings, battles and missions, Tony's exhausted.

2. Do You Know? (http://archiveofourown.org/works/3346466) - Tony/Bruce; For some reason everyone thinks Tony is going to ruin his and Bruce's relationship. They also think it's okay to tell Tony that. Eventually Bruce gets a bit mad.

Dodgy Chinese Series (http://archiveofourown.org/series/24814) - Tony/Clint; Everyone gives Tony the shovel talk, even the people who ought to know better.

[Probably not exactly what you are looking for.] The Talk (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8861401/1/The-Talk) - Tony/Steve; When they made their relationship official, Tony knew that this would happen. Everyone close to them kept pulling Steve aside for those talks and there wasn't a single thing he could do against it, but accept the inevitable.

[Not exactly what you want, but similar] First Impressions and Second Chances Series (http://archiveofourown.org/series/30998) - eventual Tony/Steve; The Avengers are over protective of one another, we all know that. But when misunderstandings lead to flawed beliefs of who a person is, and when others are judged for misguided actions carried out without thinking, it's hard to know who to protect and defend.
