Captain America and Iron Man, meet Captain America and Iron Man

I know most crossing universes stories are time related, at least the ones I've seen. Where Howard and/or Peggy get thrown forward from a time when Tony was a young boy to post Chitauri. There's one where Iron Man get in the way of as Asgardian spell and finds himself in the right time and place to find Budky right after he falls off the train. Tony saves Bucky from being found by Hydra and brings him back with him when they find a way to come back to Tony's current time. There's another story where Tony's testing of the Tessaract accidentily sends his teenage son, Steve back to World War One Brooklyn where he meets his new best friend Bucky (most of the rest of this story is pretty much movie canon, except for the hostility between the two). (See From Winter's Cold, Stark Problems, and Steven Anthony Stark, all at AO3)

What I'd like to find is any story where a modern version of Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, or any of the teammates somehow cross over into the movie canon. Maybe right before the Chitauri attack, or soon after. I assume they won't be exactly the same, accouting for different decisions and events making their experiences and personalities somewhat different. For example there is one story where an older alt-verse Cap sends his Dr. Strange to help what is left of the team (Nat and Bucky are SHIELD controlled hostiles) after Steve tries to kill himself, by aranging to strip his system of the serum, changing his body back to its pre-serum size and mortality (On Top of the World by Setcheti as AO3) I wonder how the two versions or teams would get along. Would thay be able to fight together right away. Or would their be hostility between two Tonys (one's a hopeless drunk, maybe)?

2 specific fics

I'm looking for two things.

First Is a fic called Find A Way and it is by Gir_Hugs. If anyone has a copy it knows where I can find it I would love it have it.

Seconds is a fic I forgot the name of. I believe it was Tony centric. The avengers were watching a news cast that went deep into all of their personal history. The avengers were angry but by the end when it was Tony's part it got serious. They talked about how Howard Stark abused Tony. I think there was a video of him torturing Tony to simulate a kidnapper trying to get information from him, information being a password of some sort. I think Tony cracked, the password being Steve's birthday. The footage was given to the news by an old maid.

Sorry about that big paragraph of words. If you have any questions just ask me. Thank you!

Tony abused as child

I'm looking for a fic where Tony is abused by a child and Tony meets the other avengers who are also children. They try to save him and everything angst and fluff ensued. I think there my be couple fics out there like this. I am open to any of them.

Also, while I'm here i'm looking for the standard Tony whump package. (abuse,arc reactor, overworked, misunderstood, etc.) The works.

Good luck to you all and thank you!

Tony/Team Media fics

I am looking for a few things:

1. Specific fic- it was about the news or whatever going deeper into Tony's dark past like how crappy Howard stark treated him (physical abuse?)and Afghanistan etc. the team is watching this and is surprised. I think like a lady came forward with some evidence or something of child abuse (might be a different fic)I don't remember where I read it exactly but I think it was ao3 but I'm not sure.

EDIT: I also remember them going through all the other avengers stories and got dirt on them too.

Fic recs:
2.a fic like the fic I was looking for
3. Press conference or interview with Tony or team
4. Tony helping out team with media
5. Somebody seeing how well Tony handles the press or the mask he wears for it.

Thank you!

Steve cussing out Howard, Tony thinks he means him

I'm looking for a shortish story I read at least a year ago on AO3. It's probably Steve/Tony friendship though it could be pre-slash I guess. In the story Steve finds out that Howard wasn't a very good father to Tony or even a good man in his later years. He is angry and storms out (to the roof of Stark tower I think). He talks out loud to himself how only one man deserved to have his name on the tower as his legacy and that the other doesn't deserve it (or something like that). Tony is watching a video of it and thinks Steve it talking about him not deserving Howard's legacy, but just as he is about to cut off the video feed Steve says something that makes him realise that he is talking about Howard not being worthy of Tony's achievments. Does this ring any bells?

Lost Steve/Tony - Steve Trapped in Baby!Tony's Nightlight (??)...

Hey All,

I'm looking for a fic that I'm dying to read again, but for the life of me I can't remember enough details to find it. So, I thought I would ask you all for help.

~~Steve goes down in the ice, but somehow his mind/spirit finds its way to a nightlight(??) that Howard built and put in Baby!Tony's nursery.
~~There was a scene between Howard and Maria around when the machine/nightlight was put in Baby!Tony's room, a vague "brining home baby" theme a think, but I'm not sure.
~~I remember something about Tony calling or thinking of Steve as the "Sssshhh Man" or something like that because even though Steve was aware of someone being beyond the murky surrounding he was lost in he couldn't really comminucate more than a shushing/whisper sound at first.
~~The more the years pass the more Steve was able to communicate in actual words, but I think mostly he could only communicate with Tony for some reason.

Annnddd... that's about it. I just distinctly remember the machine/nightlight/?? Howard invented, it being in Baby!Tony's room, the shushing noise Steve made at first that only Tony heard and being able to talk later on. I know it ends with Steve waking up and him being with Tony in the end, but that's it.

Thanks for the help in advance!!!

**ETA FOUND: Turns out I was mashing two fics together, so thank you to both

c_mami and

Bucky Recovery re: Howard fics?

Does anyone know any fics about Bucky realizing he kills Howard and being UPSET about it?

I’ve read a lot of fics where Tony is upset about it. But usually all those fics have Bucky oddly not caring at all, or only concerned about it in regards to the idea that Tony is upset.

Except, of all the kills possibly attributed to the Winter Soldier, Howard was the only one that Bucky KNEW and was possibly FRIENDS with. So, I kind of wondering if there are fics out there that would explore Bucky's thoughts/feelings about the event.

Any recs?!

Specific Stucky Fic ft. Fem!Steve and Irish Endearments

Hey, everyone! I'm looking for a specific Stucky fic that I read on ao3 ages ago. In fact, I'm pretty sure it was a series, but maybe not.

It was a pre-war Stucky story with always-a-girl!Steve. Stucky was married when they went to the Expo where they met Howard. Stucky and Howard became friends and both Bucky and Steve (Steph?) are injected with the serum eventually, but I think Bucky was first. Sarah Rogers and Mrs. Barnes were featured as was the Rogers' Irish heritage. Lots of Irish endearments from the characters, especially Bucky (he picked it up from the Rogers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!!

Tony's Life (long fics)

Hi! I've been searching for two fics in particular, and I have another general rec request.

The first fic is long, begins pre-ironman and is Tony-centric. (Also, I love angst so it probably had a healthy helping of that). I know it has Loki, and I know it has Fury -- in this fic, Fury has a huge soft spot for Tony. Tony also thinks of Fury in a more paternal way. In any case, the scene that I really remember is where Fury says "Ant. Boot." to Loki, and Tony thinks that that is so badass (and just like Fury). I think Tony was smirking or smiling? I don't know... I've been looking all over for this fic and I can't find it! Oh, and it was, because of the nature of the fic, either gen or pepperony.

The second fic (it may be the same) is also another long Tony-centric fic, but in this one, for whatever reason, Tony doesn't drink, and when he's giving his speal to Loki, Loki notices and Tony winks at him. I'm pretty sure it was tea that Tony was drinking?

Lastly, and I'm sorry that this is so long, I'm looking for any really long Tony-centric fics that start from his childhood? Preferably slash -- any pairing, but I am more of a Stony girl.

Thank you so much!

Howard kills someone

I'm looking for this specific fic. All I can remember is that someone Howard works with get stupid drunk and admits to having a sexual interest in Tony, so Howard kills the guy.

NOCD fics: The Starks - Classism and snobbery

I am looking for fics where classism is an issue for one or more of the Starks. It doesn't matter whether it is someone snubbing one of them as NOCD (Not Our Class, Dear) for being 'New Money'; or a Stark disregarding someone because they are poor, or, working class; or an intermediary blocking access on the presumption that the person being contacted wouldn't want to talk to someone like that.

A case where someone NOCDs (NTCD?) themself, not trying to interact with the other person because they don't think they're good enough/important enough would also fit.

Mod: Are there enough searches that involve her to create a Maria Stark tag?

Looking for a Stony fic with kid Peter and time traveling Howard

I believe the fic I'm looking for is on Ao3. It's a Steve/Tony fic that has a kid Peter as their kid. I believe Peter's about five or six. Howard someone ends up in the future and one day Steve has an appointment or something so he drops Peter off in a Shield room with Howard without telling Tony. When Tony finds out where Peter is he goes straight there only to find Howard yelling at Peter or hitting him or something and Peter is crying. Tony hits Howard just as Steve comes in and Steve gets mad and yells at Tony asking what kind of example he's setting for Peter. Tony doesn't care and just picks Peter up and takes them to the bathroom where they hide underneath the counter because small places make Peter feel safe. Steve comes in and apologizes for yelling at Tony and I think that's it. I can't find the story in my bookmarks anymore so help finding it would be appreciated.

Looking for Hurt!Tony, Alive!Howard or Step-Parent-to-Tony!Steve

Okay, so I have recently started reading Avengers-fanfiction, and I find that I really, really like it. I mostly prefer fics with slash-pairings, but gen is good too.

I really hope you can help me, because this has been bugging me. Because I can barely find any of these, and I really hope there's more.

1. I read a fic where Steve was one of the soldiers with Tony in the humvee, and he goes temporarily deaf. So I was wondering if there are any fics where Tony becomes permanently/temporarily deaf, blind or mute either while in Afghanistan or during the Avengers? Or comes back from Afghanistan permanently injured (that is not the arc reactor, but he has that too), maybe he had to amputate an arm? Maybe even no one knows of this injury?

2. Any fics that closely follow the original timeline (MCU), but Howard Stark isn’t dead? Or he is brought forward in time? And then he is either a really good father, a bad father or a mix between them.

3. I also read a Howard/Steve-series, The Joys of Step-Parenting, where Steve becomes Tony’s Step-Father, so I was wondering if there are any other fics like that because I literally fell in love. Steve as Tony's step-father. I really liked that idea.

4. (added this as I noticed I had managed to hit a wrong tag.. hidden identity) I have read a lot of these, where iron man's identity is hidden. This got me thinking. Are there any fics where everyone wears masks to hide their identity, so that even the Avengers don't know who they are actually fighting with?

I would be really happy for any fic-recs received. They don't have to be spot on, but similar is good. I'll accept any pairings, even if I am more inclined to read slash-pairings, I can even read fics with no pairings or with het-pairings. I just really want to read more fics like this if it was possible. The length of the fics don't really matter, although I love longfics, I can read shortfics too. Just not any crack, please.

Thank you so much in advance!

Howard Start shows up in the present time

I know there's at least one such story 'cause I'm read it. I just can't remember where it is. I'd also like to find any other story where Tony's father shows up during the present (Avengers) time. The one I read shows how little Howard thought of Tony and how much he put Steve ahead of his own son, totally losing any respect Steve had for his mentor. There are lot os stories touching on the conflict between Steve and Tony over how the two men saw Howard and how how he can be so good to one and crappy to the other. I'd like to see how other writers would cover that.

tony is captain America

Hey guys I need your help. I was reading this story and now I can't find it! It was about Tony and how he was captain America. Howard was tony's brother and Tony smoked. Also when he wanted to get in to the tower ( which is Steve's ) the person at the desk won't let him. I think that he also ran after someone who took an old lady's purse. The clearest part is that he cussed like a sailor. I think it was stony. This story was very good and I just want to read it again. Thanks a million!

Steve/Tony Fics, or a series?

I *think* these fics were part of a series, but I could be wrong.

In the first one I'm looking for, Tony gets turned into a dog (I think, maybe a cat?). He and Steve have just had a fight because Steve's a bit homophobic and freaks out when Tony touches him (Tony wasn't into him, but that argument plants the idea...). I remember Steve won't let Tony eat whatever he wants or get into trouble. And Tony is furious. Then Tony and Clint are fooling around and Tony gets hurt- runs into something and hits his head, I believe- and Steve is super protective. Gradually they start cuddling, and Tony winds up sleeping in Steve's bed. Where he transforms back for the first time. Steve freaks out. He turns back into a dog, and continues turning back and forth until Steve gets over his homophobia. There are sneaky hotdogs with Happy and dog!Tony (who isn't allowed onion rings, I think) and maybe also Clint? They get in trouble with Steve. And Clint dresses Tony up- maybe as Hawkeye?- at one point.
Oh! This all happens because Loki is in an abandoned mining town and they all go looking for him, and Tony goes down the mine by himself, which Steve gets mad at him about, and winds up with the crystal Loki was looking for. Bruce puts the crystal on a collar that allows Tony to talk.

I *think* this was part of a series, and that the next fic was a later installment, I might be wrong though. If they're separate, I'm desperately seeking both.

Steve winds up transported to an alternate universe (by Loki who wants something from him and is trying to trick him into revealing it, maybe?) where the serum didn't muscle him up, it put him in a coma. He wakes up 70 years later. Howard is stll alive, and Bucky is Captain America. Howard and Bucky do *not* get along. Tony is living in this isolated house of Howard's drinking himself to death and working for Stark Industries. For some reason, Howard (who I think is creeping on Steve?) decides Steve should live with Tony. Tony drinks a lot and hits on Steve sometimes, but Steve is heartbroken, because he loves Tony and this broken, defeated alcoholic is a Tony who doesn't love him? Steve works at Stark Industries as Tony's assistant and brings him food at lunch. He finds sodas they both like with marbles in the necks one day. Steve also buys a punching bag, but he can barely use it. Tony drinks a lot and Steve tries to get him to eat. Tony is WAY different (flirty, I think for sure- also friendly?) when he's drunk and it confuses Steve. Tony also has to sleep with a girl of Howard's choosing a certain number of times a year to get an heir to the Stark family. He hates it and leaves her in his room to come see Steve.
I think there's some sort of super villain attack right in their front lawn and they get involved? I might be wrong. And that Loki is there, as a beautiful woman who's sleeping with Doom? And he was also in Steve's hospital room when he woke up as a beautiful woman? And that this is all a plot to get the red stone that turned Tony into a dog in the first story.

These might be totally separate things, but I've looked everywhere and can't find them, so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Steve/Tony Tony travels back in time.

Okay, I read this ages ago and I could have sworn I bookmarked it but well... any way.

In it Tony travels back in time to WW2 and has to pretend to be Howard's brother. Howard thinks Tony is his nephew. Steve and Tony get together during this time and when he goes back to his own time he and Steve continue the relationship. Oh, and Steve in the future didn't know at first that past!Howard's brother(future Tony) was actually Tony. Until he got sent back.

Sorry if that's confusing. Any help would be great!!!

Specific Fic Search

Hey community! I went through a lot of what I thought were relevant tags and couldn't find what I was looking for so I'm hoping someone can help me out. Pretty please with a Dean Winchester on top!

I think it's a well known fic and I thought it was recced in this community. Maybe it was and I just don't have any luck right now. Anyways it's a Stony Fic where they have a kid, pretty sure an adopted boy who either wasn't Peter at all or was just named Peter (?) and Howard shows up, I believe time travel, and is his normal jerky self but Steve doesn't believe Tony when he tells Steve that until Steve overhears mean Howard being insulting to either the kid and Tony or just the kid. ( Holy run on sentence Batman! )

I also believe it was relatively short and either on AO3 or LiveJournal. That's all I remember, hope this rings a bell for someone. Thank you for at least reading this :)

Steve prefers Howard to Tony

I'm reading First Impressions and Second Chances by lilsmartass, in which Steve and Clint bully Stark due to a series of misunderstandings. A big part of Steve's rationalization of his behavious is that he keeps comparing Tony to Howard and each time Tony is found wanting.

My question is are there more fics like this? That Steve doesn't like Tony because he is not Howard - because he is too different, too brass, etc. Could be slash or not (I know I saw a few kink meme prompts in this topic).

Thank you in advance.
