#eventual avengers endgame fix it

[wenellyb]

Hey, I always see reblogs from you about sam and bucky. What show are they from and are they a canon couple? Or best friends?

Hi Anon!!!! I don't know how to answer this. Both and neither?!

Wait I know, they're in a situationship!

I guess that the answer is not so easy to answer because it depends on who you ask😂.

I hope this will be short but I can't promise (by the end of my reply you might regret asking this question😭).

So Sam and Bucky are 2 Marvel characters, who appeared in Captain America movies (Bucky was in Captain America 1, 2 and 2 and Sam was in Cap 2 and 3, he also appeared in Age of Ultron)

So they were both Steve Roger's best friends, Bucky was the old one who Steve thought was dead, and Sam his new best friend.

They officially meet in Captain America 3: Civil War (they met before but they were fighting because Bucky had been brainwashed).

So they meet in Cap 3, and only share 2 ten seconds scenes but wow were those scenes hilarious. So some people started shipping them.

It also helps that the actors playing them have amazing chemistry together and became friends while doing press interviews together for Cap 2.

I don't know if you're still following, but back then Sambucky was not a big fandom like the other big Marvels ships but it was still a sizeable fandom, we see them again in Avengers Endgame, where they don't share a lot of scenes together, but again the 2 scenes they share are beautiful. Sam puts his hand on Bucky should to comfort him, and then at the end Bucky looks at Sam like this.

In Avengers Endgame, we see Sam becoming Captain America and what do we learn in the meantime??? SAM AND BUCKY ARE GETTING THEIR OWN TV SHOW???? What????

Can you believe the state of the Sambucky fandom around that time?

So basically the TV show is some sort of buddie cop drama, but there are a lot of scenes that make Sam and Bucky look like a couple:

- Them going to couples therapy and the therapist making them do a soul gazing exercise

- Bucky following Sam around like a puppy

- Bucky showing to Sam hometown and helping him fix his boat The Notebook style

-and eventually Bucky moved to Sam's hometown.

So we got a lot of shipping material, but Sam and Bucky were never confirmed as a couple, but here's the thing... they were never said not to be a couple either.

Whenever the cast members are asked about the relationship they're evasive AF. When asked about it, the director said that "there was no sexuality attached to their characters" which doesn't scream "they're Straight", quite the opposite, same with the writer, who was always giving cryptic answers.

They're alway talking about how Sam and Bucky love eachother ( Kari Skogland and Sebastian Stan), can't leave without each other (Anthony Mackie) and how they're a family (Malcolm Spellman) but they have never said they were friends.

So, you might ask someone and they'll say Sam and Bucky are best friends. And they are.

But if you ask me, I would say that Sam and Bucky are each other's love interest. And with Marvel we know love interests always move at the slowest pace.

You can see it as platonic or romantic. Your pick.

If you're asking me if they're "officially together", this was the ending scene of the show...

... so again it's up to you to decide. But to answer the question, they're not officially together.

The best way to describe it is that they're in a Marvel situationship.

A Place of Healing (Rated: T, Words: 12K) by this_wayward_life

Summary: Steve clears his throat a few times. "Look, uh, Bucky. I want to apologize for my crass behaviour earlier this week. It was... It was rude of me to put you in such a compromising position at your place of employment, and I understand if you do not wish to interact with me any further -""Captain Rogers," Bucky interrupts. He's fully grinning now, unable to stop himself. "It's fine, I promise. Everyone says weird stuff under morphine, it's pretty much a law of the universe. Believe me, I didn't find it rude at all. "Steve swallows, averting his eyes as Bucky sets his dinner tray on the table beside the bed. "I just... I didn't want to make you uncomfortable. "Bucky laughs quietly. "Don't worry Captain, you didn't make me uncomfortable. It was sweet. "He doesn't know why he adds that last bit, but it makes Steve's cheeks bloom red again. "Call me Steve. Please. "Steve looks up at him through long, thick eyelashes, and god, Bucky is in danger with this one. "Steve," Bucky repeats softly. "Don't worry. You were sweet."--Bucky never expected to have a patient like Steve Rogers.

Not Language by a Map (The Grammar of Sensation) (Rated: E, Words: 20K) by dorian_burberrycanary / @burberrycanary

Summary: Steve has never felt right running away from a fight, even if the fight is with unanswered questions. But it’s not running if it’s a road trip and the oldest, thorniest unanswered question is along for the ride. — The magnitude of the morning keeps appearing in flashes like the occasional downward glance when traversing a long narrow ledge. He kissed Bucky and didn’t get punched, or worse, let down easy. The post-The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Endgame fix-it comes to, if not an end, then at least a stopping point. Eventually.

***This fic is complete, but the series (A Man Takes His Sadness Down to the River (The Consolation of Philosophy)) is not.***

How to (Try to) Lose a Guy in 10 Days (Rated: M, Words: 39K) by  rohruh / @rohruh

Summary: “I like it,” Carol snaps her fingers and points in Bucky’s direction. “Let’s give it a deadline. How long do you think you’ll need to get someone to break up with you, Barnes? 10 days?” This actually sounds kind of fun. It’s been a while since Bucky has felt this kind of excitement towards any of his work assignments. “How to lose a guy in 10 days,” he says with a bit of wonder. “How to lose a guy in 10 days,” Carol agrees, sharing a wicked smile with him. “I won’t need all 10, though,” he tells her with certainty. “I’m sure I can scare him off way sooner than that.”

Waking the Fire In Me (Rated: E, Words: 17K) by humapuma / @humapuma & art by @kayaczek

Summary: Steve’s knees nearly went out from under him, but he grabbed onto the table to stay upright. He whined – he couldn’t help it. His chest cracked open, breaking him down until he was sixteen years old again, thin and sickly. The pale grey of those eyes was so familiar, but Steve hadn’t seen it, hadn’t even thought to look for it. How? A voice screamed inside. How did I not see? His entire being trembled as he whispered, “Bucky?” The Soldier’s usually cold eyes changed then, something flashed in them as his nostrils flared, harshly inhaling Steve’s scent before he said the words that finally made his buckling knees give out, forcing Steve to the ground. “Who the hell is Bucky?” A ghost found his way to the Avengers, asking for help - a ghost of a man long thought dead.

Lucky Screwdriver (Rated: E, Words: 6K) by Zenaidamacrouras1 / @zenaidamacrouras1

Summary: I saw a thing on Twitter and Tumblr about a guy borrowing a screwdriver on Grindr and wrote a thing. Bucky is a very tired graduate student who has plumbing issues. Steve "fixes" his "plumbing" and also fixes his plumbing. It's not as salacious as it sounds, but, it's definitely salacious.

sunshine (Rated: T, Words: 107K) by peterbparker

Summary: “This is Winnie.” Nice Hot Neighbour smiled and Jesus Christ, Steve was fucked. “She’s my daughter. And I’m Bucky.” Nice Hot Neighbour, Bucky, extended his right hand to shake Steve’s. Steve did the culturally accepted thing and shook it, trying to maintain a nice smile, not a crazy one. “Nice to meet you, Bucky. I’m Steve.” or; retired Steve Rogers moves back to Brooklyn and becomes neighbours with history professor Bucky Barnes and his Black Widow fanatic six-year-old daughter, Winnie Barnes. With their help, Steve finds himself (and maybe love).

I hate you, don’t I? (Rated: M, Words: 50K) by Holdengrey0

Summary: Steve and Bucky are a month into their training to become Shield agents in a fierce course run by director Fury. With everyone wanting to be the best, days are full of muscle killing training sessions and intense lessons. Since the beginning though, Steve and Bucky have been rivals. There's no reason for it, they just hate each other. However as time goes on, Nat and Sam notice small things and begin to think it may be something else entirely. Something the boys themselves haven't even picked up on yet. But they hate each other, don't they?

Teenage Kicks (Rated: T, Words: 65K) by roe87 / @jro616​

Summary: Bucky Barnes, certified dork and generally uncool nerd, starts 9th grade without friends and still carrying a torch for Steve Rogers, all round popular kid and star athlete at school who is so far out of Bucky's league he may as well be the moon. Then Bucky makes a new friend, new student and fellow dork Kamala Khan. Kamala is putting together a band, which is certainly a lot cooler than anything Bucky has ever done and he gets swept along for the ride, gaining new friends and a newfound confidence on the way. Which is just when Steve Rogers seems to notice him, and Bucky wonders if the moon isn't so far out of reach after all. (90s high school au, with lots of PINING)

the proposals (Rated: G, Words: 4K) by sparkagrace / @sparkagrace​

Summary: Not impossible. That seems like something Bucky can hold onto. He’s wary of this new century, of his mind and his memories. He’s been working so hard to try and uncover his past that he hasn’t really been thinking about the future. Not really aside from being with Steve and creating a life together, but he hadn’t thought about creating a life with Steve. He looks over again at Steve, so content with a child on his lap, so at ease and without the weight of the world bearing down on him. They can have this.— There's a few questions that Steve and Bucky want to ask each other. Pre-series fic but can be read as a standalone. 

***This fic is complete, but the series (al, pal, and alpine) is not.***

Treading Water (Rated: M, Current Words: 133K) by sparkagrace / @sparkagrace & art by Dyslexic_Fetus / @reagy-jay

Lost Vocabularies that Might Express (The Memory of These Broken Impressions) (Rated: E, Current Words: 9K) by dorian_burberrycanary / @burberrycanary​

Summary: The worst of times, like the best, are always passing away. How’s that for some consolation on the road?A post-The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Stucky fix-it as part of the all-American road trip, detours included.

***Part of the series A Man Takes His Sadness Down to the River (The Consolation of Philosophy): The Same River, Twice (The Man Is Still Left with His Hands) (Rated: G, words: 4K), Still Left with the River (The Paradox of Motion) (Rated: G, Words: 14K), &  Not Language by a Map (The Grammar of Sensation) (Rated: E, Words: 20K)***

a league of their own (Rated: E, Current Words: 23K) by burning_brighter / @burning-brighter

Summary: Steve’s sixteen-year-old son’s one and only dream is to play in the Major League. He thinks he has a shot when the team get a new coach, retired MLB legend and Steve’s high school crush, Bucky Barnes. Steve hasn’t thought of the man in many years, but seeing him brings back many memories that push Steve to reach out to an old friend and maybe make new ones on the way. What happens when Steve gets to know Bucky properly? What happens when they open up about their darkest secrets and deepest fears? There’s really only one thing that can happen.

SteveTony Weekly - May 7th

 HELLO MY LOVELY FRIENDS I MISSED YOU!!! Last week was a mess BUT I closed on my house Monday (OMG) and now we’re in the home stretch before we move (!!!!!). Quick note: 

I’m going to be moving May 21, so the rec list might be kinda off that weekend, but I’ll pre-plan something! Enjoy and be sure to drop a kudos/comment for your author! 

~*~ 

Mark Zero by enkiduu

Tony wears his lack of soulmark with pride.

lover, we always fall by enkiduu

Dying in a world with reincarnation is easy. Living in one is hard, because history inevitably follows you, and you can't always decide what your legacy is.

You try to change history, but your Icarus only ever chooses the same thing he's always chosen.

(In which Tony is Icarus and Steve is the ocean.)

ignorance is (not) bliss by earliebirb

One of Tony’s hands shoots up to grab his wrist, gripping it tightly. Slowly, Tony opens his eyes.

Steve’s blood freezes in his veins. His heart sinks with dread. 

“Tony?” Steve hopes that this is just some weird bout of sleepwalking, but Tony doesn’t sleepwalk, and from the thoughtful way Tony regards him, Steve knows that Tony is somehow very much awake, which means—

Tony swallows, his eyes wide and alert in a way Steve didn’t think they were capable of being twenty minutes ago. 

“Steve,” he says, the single word carrying too much weight.

the stark-tangled man with a crappy plan by Serinah for AvengersNewB

*At first, it seemed to be an easy job: find the O, secure the O, and hand him over to his guardian and the fiance. Simple. Unfortunately, the omega wasn't onboard. At all.*

OR:

Steve has to return a runaway omega to his guardian Mr. Stane.

Where Lies A Home by XtaticPearl

They're in the middle of the most complicated and risky fight of their lives, placing their bets on a distant memory right now, and basically in deep trouble if the plan doesn't work out. Steve knows he should be stressed and somewhere in the corner of his mind, he is a little. Mostly though, he's having fun and strangely, so is Tony.

Yes, Just Like This by gottalovev

Tony wakes up in a hospital on another planet missing his memories of the last eleven years. It's now 2023, and he learns the Avengers saved half the universe. Unfortunately, not everything he forgot is good news.

(An Endgame Alternate Universe AND Civil-War fix-it and get together story, weaved through a space road trip with Steve, Carol and Nebula. Complete but cut in 5 chapters for ease of reading.)

messages from the stars by Thahire

Steve's not expecting to find anything remotely of interest when he steps into Macy’s, of all places, in a last-ditch effort to find a present for Tony.

Somehow, he ends up leaving with an engagement ring.

Still Got It by KandiSheek 

Ever since Tony's close call in their battle against Thanos Steve treats him like he's going to break at the slightest pressure. He won't so much as look at the bionic arm either. So Tony takes matters into his own hands to prove that he can still handle himself just fine.

Soul Searching (The Hop, Skip, Jump Remix) by navaan

Tony lives a peaceful life in Irondale and then Steve Rogers drifts into town. It's the beginning of a romance — and not all is what it seems.

Code Icarus by FestiveFerret

Steve Rogers hates falling, but he hates being caught even more.

Truths, Lies and the Tipping Point by BlackEyedGirl

The news report seems more interested in the argument between the team during the fight than the way they eventually won. And then it gets worse.

Me in You by Captain_Panda

What if J.A.R.V.I.S. was Tony?

That is, what if a lonely genius Velveteen Rabbited his computer program into a real being instead of just his own thoughts talking back at him?

A deep dive into a broken psyche, contemplating Tony's loneliness, J.A.R.V.I.S.'s protectiveness, and the mother of all broken genius families. Mostly because Howard Stark never hugged his son.

Depthless by Captain_Panda

"Depthless: (1) unfathomably deep; (2) shallow and superficial."

Weeks after defrosting Captain America, S.H.I.E.L.D. finds Steve Rogers lying at the bottom of a pool. Assumptions are made. They have no idea what they are dealing with.

Meanwhile, Tony Stark, the man-in-the-spotlight, has demons lurking off-radar that are literally filling his lungs with water.

Ignoring either problem was never an option. This is the story of Steve Rogers and Tony Stark's collision course.

For What It's Worth by Captain_Panda

S.H.I.E.L.D. thaws out Captain America, expecting a combat-ready soldier to greet them.

They get Steve Rogers instead, a broken artist who turns to the violin for salvation.

hold your fire by JenTheSweetie

He watched Tony eat an entire steak and listened to him talk about the work he was doing on the Milano while he downed glass after glass of expensive scotch. Just as Steve was about to suggest they head back to the jet, Tony finished his last glass, put it down firmly, and said, "I want to blow you."

Steve stared at him.

"Let's get a hotel room," Tony said, like that was that, and somehow - and Steve never could explain how, not then and not now and not later - it was.

Say It Now by ishipallthings 

“I’m glad you’re here, Tony,” Steve tells him. It’s not everything he wants to say, but it’s enough.

Steve thinks it might be one of the most important things he’s ever said.

(Steve and Tony have a conversation the night before the time heist. Maybe second chances aren’t impossible after all.)

a hop, skip, and a jump by IronSwordStarShield (SweetFanfics)

“Before I go, I was wondering if I could ask you some questions.”

“About?” they ask they return the stone to its place.

“Timelines. Alternate realities.”

--

Steve returns the stones to their rightful places in time, gets his dance with Peggy, and then embarks on a whole new search.

Give Me Just A Little More Time by Robin_tCJ 

Spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. A full summary will live in the author’s notes, so you have to click to read it, but the premise is that this is technically canon divergent in the sense that I’m treating it as… a few deleted scenes in the middle, there. It’ll only make sense if you’ve seen the movie, and if you haven’t seen the movie it will definitely spoil you for it. Written in kind of a sketchy, lots-of-really-short-scenes style.

falling like the stars by complicationstoo

When Tony starts at MIT, he's excited to finally be in the same city as his older brother, Bucky, again. Then he meets Bucky's roommate and best friend Steve Rogers and falls faster than he would have ever thought possible.

[whotf-atemywaffles]

Stick Season

Bucky Barnes x reader No use of Y/N idk if there are any Tw's if there are let me know and i will update asap ( only ones i can think of are ) TW: Depression, events of endgame, not proofread

Summary:After being left heartbroken by Bucky, you research how to bring back those lost to the Snap and finally succeed with Scott Lang's help. You find Bucky in Romania, realizing you still love each other. You both return to the Avengers compound and catch up with the team. You vow to never let anything come between you again and fight to protect the world together.

1 day. 1 day was all it took, all it took for everything to be destroyed. You sighed as you lifted your head from your hands as you thought about how Bucky had promised you that you were more than all the miles combined. you and Bucky had attempted to try long-distance, while you were on a mission that required you to stay a few states away, the team could visit you; and as everyone says, it never works out, and as cliché as it sounds you replied with, Yeah but we will be different, oh how wrong you were…Bucky had promised you that you were worth more than any amount of miles he would drive to see you..but You had assumed he changed his mind; you were on the phone talking as bucky was driving too you, talking about everything and nothing all at once. Eventually his voice trailed off, exactly as he passed the exit sign that would’ve taken him to you, Kept on driving straight and left your future to the right…he must have changed his mind. You sat there, staring blankly at the wall as tears streamed down your face. Everything felt like it was falling apart, and you didn't know how to fix it. You couldn't believe that Bucky had just given up on your relationship like that. All those promises and sweet nothings, gone in an instant.

that was 2 years ago…

Now your mission is finally finished, all you wanted to do was return to the compound, while simultaneously never wanting to go back ever again. on the drive back it had begun to rain, well more downpour, provoking your newly found fear of weather, because you saw his face when it rained. When everything had happened you started to talk to a qualified therapist, who was not at all Bruce Banner…he told you that when you were done with your mission, you should travel. Now that everything is done, half of the world is missing, and there's Covid on the planes.

with a heavy sigh you keep driving, you're still a few hours out, almost there, you would’ve called, but you didn't know who was left, when the battle happened with thanos you ended up in space with Dr strange, Tony, and Peter. as soon as you made it back to earth much to Natasha’s protests you left, returning to your mission. You couldn't help but wonder what had happened to Bucky. Had he moved on? Had he found someone else? The thought made your heart ache. You tried to push it to the back of your mind and focus on the road ahead. 

As you drove, you realised that you didn't know what awaited you at the compound. Who was still alive? Who had been lost to the Snap? Despite your fears, you knew that you had to face whatever was ahead. You took a deep breath and kept driving, ready for whatever came next. You finally arrived at the compound, feeling a mix of relief and anxiety. As you stepped out of the car, you were greeted by a familiar face - Steve Rogers. He gave you a warm smile and a hug, and you felt a wave of emotion wash over you. You spent the rest of the day catching up with the Avengers who had survived the Snap, but one person was still missing. You couldn't help but wonder if Bucky was among the casualties. Natasha had noted you had been different, you laughed less, your eyes were more grey…But she decided not to say anything for the time being, You're no longer funny cause you miss the way he laughed That night, as you lay in bed, afraid of sleeping, because everytime you try you dream of some version of him. you made a decision - you were going to find out how to bring him back, no matter what. You spent the next few weeks pouring over research and talking to anyone who might have information on how to bring back those lost to the Snap. This was impossible. another 3 years passed. nothing, until. you were sitting in the compound with Natasha when Steve walked in, The two were talking, until you hear something on the camera outside, “Em… Hello? I don’t know if you remember me but im scott lang-or-Antman we met in Germany” He said while frantically flailing his arms around similar to one of those wacky inflatable arm-flailing tube men. 

“Is this a recording?” Steve asked. “It's a live feed” I say softly. “Let him in,” Nat says. Scott's arrival brought a glimmer of hope to the team. He explained that he had been trapped in the Quantum Realm during the Snap, but had managed to escape. He believed that the Quantum Realm held the key to reversing the Snap and bringing back those who were lost. The team listened intently as he explained his theory, and together they began to work on a plan to enter the Quantum Realm and retrieve the necessary materials to bring everyone back, with the help of Tony Stark. 

After months of preparation and a gruelling battle, the team was able to reverse the Snap and bring back those who were lost. As you looked around at the faces of your friends and loved ones, you couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to make things right. But there was still one thing missing - Bucky. You knew that you had to find him, no matter what it took. You made a promise to yourself to never give up until you were reunited with the man you loved.

Months passed as you continued your search for Bucky. You followed every lead, talked to every contact, and scoured every corner of the globe. Just when you were about to give up hope, a lead took you to a small village in Romania. You couldn't believe your eyes when you saw him - Bucky, alive and well, but different. he was happy, and it broke your heart for some odd reason, maybe because when he left you were left hollow, drinking alcohol till your friends came home for Christmas, telling yourself you not playing the victim, because he actually just left, out of the blue. To think because of him you gave up being funny, and making jokes, because what's the point if the person you made them for isn’t there to laugh

You took a deep breath and approached him. He looked up and his face lit up when he saw you. You stood there for a moment, taking each other in, until he finally spoke. "I never thought I'd see you again," he said softly, tears in his eyes. “well, isn't that what you wanted?” You ask gently

"I thought it was what I wanted," Bucky replied, his voice barely above a whisper. "But being without you showed me that I was wrong. I was lost without you, and I didn't realise it until it was too late." You both stood there in silence for a moment, as you stand together your reminded of the dreams you had every time you close your eyes or every time it rained, of the man you didn't have, but did not lose

The two of you spent the next few weeks catching up on everything that had happened since you last saw each other. You talked about your missions, your fears, and your hopes for the future. It was as if no time had passed at all. You knew that things wouldn't be easy, that you both had a lot of healing to do, but you were willing to try. You made a promise to each other to never let anything come between you again. As you walked hand in hand through the streets of the small village, you felt as though you had finally found your way back home.

Reminder about Thanos from Infinity War.

Though he is ultimately more noble than his alternate 2014 counterpart, it is only by relative terms. If Thanos was truly a well-intentioned extermist, he wouldn't have destroyed the Infinity Stones. He would have kept it as a failsafe in case his plan failed. But no, he destroyed them on the justification of "temptation" and made everyone live with his choices and his actions.

He retires after completing his mission, but he has that smug satisfaction that everyone will know what he did and will praise him for it eventually. He doesn't need to show his face anymore. He already made a name for himself across the galaxy. They know him as the Mad Titan and the most powerful being in the universe. But of course, that reputation was all about fear of what he does and not Thanos truly wants. What Thanos wants are praises. Vindication that he is right all along.

He will die happily as a martyr if he believes they can't undo his genocide and will eventually accept it. That's what 2018 Thanos went out believing. But as we see with 2014 Thanos, the moment he is given information that not only did the universe not thank him for his deeds but actually went through all the trouble to find a way to undo the Blip, Thanos shows his true colors. He could have rethink his plans and ponder if he was truly right or not. He could halted his quest and instead fix the damages he caused. He could have just made better failsafes for his universe to ensure that his plan here will succeed. But no, Thanos wants to prove the Avengers wrong in their universe. That's how frail his ego is.

He intends to wipe out the other half of the universe and restart completely, with new life having no memory of the past and only know peace and happiness. Thanos' true motive is made clear. He wants recognition and love on his terms, to the point he's willing to break his own goals just to ensure that. He wants to hear the universe proclaim that he was right all along, that all his centuries of hardship and slaughter wasn't all for nothing. He refuses to considering changing himself and accept that he may be wrong and his critics have a point. A tragic character ultimately, for there is no one but himself to be blame for his ultimate downfall in Endgame.

[m00nagedreamin]

can you tell me what happens in Spider-Man because I have no idea what ur on about 🫡

chat, intense spider man spoilers ahead i’m going to be neurodivergently ranting about the following movies:

-captain america: civil war

-spider-man: homecoming

-avengers: infinity war

-brief avengers endgame talk

it’s only the ones with heavy irondad+spiderson content because that’s all i care about okay here we go! hope you enjoy this red, i’m insane :)

starting with civil war:

this movie is moreso focused on the conflict between tony stark (aka iron man) and steven rogers (aka captain america) HOWEVER SPIDERMAN IS THERE!!! for like 20 minutes but CRUMBS PEOPLE ITS CRUMBS

peter parker (aka spiderman) shows up about halfway through because tony stark needs people to like… fuck shit up with him or whatever. there’s a war going on and they need people and spiderman is a person! so tony and peter officially meet and have a semi deep conversation and BOOM spiderman is official on team ironman. btw peter is about 15 at this time i think

there’s a lot of other lore in civil war pertaining to tony stark’s backstory and, eventually, his friendship with captain america completely crumbles and they’re very very big enemies

wooooo!!

okay next movie. spiderman homecoming :)

ITS PETER’S TIME TO SHINE!!! but not really… after the war between cap and ironman, spiderman is sorta shoved to the side. tony says he’ll call the kid when it’s time for another mission, but that time never really comes. so peter parker, a 15 (i think?) year old from queens, is doomed to be a friendly neighborhood superhero :( :( :(

but then!!!!!! peter starts picking up that something big is happening in queens… dangerous weapons are being transported around the city and peter parker is going to stop them 💪💪

and he tries. oh, does he try. and fail! a lot. there’s a couple of very good irondad moments as spiderman tries his best to complete this dangerous mission that, really, he should not be handling on his own.

the end of the movie is very chef’s kiss and i won’t spoil it in case you wanna watch but OH GOD it’s so good

the last two i’m gonna summarize briefly and without spoilers because i highly recommend you watch them. but here are the important details:

infinity war: the avengers have rejoined and have to fight the Big Bad Thanos who is trying to kill half the population in a single snap. this goes…. well, some type of way for spiderman and he spends a lot of time in space with iron man :)

endgame: the avengers try to fix what happened in infinity war and oh. pain. so much pain. oh my god i sobbed. it was so good tho. very little irondad rep but what is there is GOLD.

if i missed anything yell at me pls thanks

[sarahshoots1st]

Since everyone is currently losing their minds over Spider-CaitVi, allow me to introduce my own Marvel AU:

Captain America Leona (Captain Solari?)

Leona is chosen for a supersoldier program where she is infused with the power of Mt. Targon to fight back the forces of darkness. She gest awesome sun-powers, the muscle-mommy build she deserves, and a sword and shield that are as unbreakable as her convictions.

Diana is the lead scientist on the project, and immediately gets The Gay.

Angst ensues when Leona has to sacrifice herself to save the world from Black Mist/Void corruption/whatever bombs. She promises Diana to meet her to dance next Saturday before crashing. However, the field of True Ice she lands in preserves her, time-capsuling her into the modern world, where she has trouble fitting in with technology and changing cultural values. Eventually she ends up joining a team of other heroes to defend the planet, all the while wishing for a way to go back to her own life.

She's a herbo with a heart of gold who gets teased for being the moral compass of the Avengers, but her unwavering beliefs help keep Jayce-Iron Man in line whenever he decides "science can fix everything". She refuses to give up on Rell, who was also time-capsuled (and also has The Gay for Leona), and is willing to stick her neck for her friend out when the world is convinced the Iron Maiden is an agent for the Black Rose.

Literally this is just my excuse to have Leona stare angstily at Diana's picture in her locket until they manage to invent time-travel in Endgame.

Bound | A Loki x Reader Fanfic

Rating: E

Warnings: Eventual smut, human sacrifice, torture, blood and injury, violence, angst

A/N: I realized I keep posting the links to AO3 and Wattpad for Bound, but I also could be posting it to here for people who prefer to read on Tumblr.

Summary:

A year has passed since the Snap. As you look to find a fresh start in life, you end up in the wrong place at the wrong time. A small cult dedicated to the newly revitalized Norse religion chooses you as a sacrifice with the belief that this will give Thor and the other gods the strength to undo what Thanos has done. What you don't know is that human sacrifices come with a powerful magic — those who are sacrificed become linked with the god they have been given to.

It's been a millennia since a human was sacrificed to one of the gods. You've been bound to Loki.

CHAPTER 1

The car rumbled silently down the road. Items in the trunk bounced around, hitting one another as you drove over another bump that had probably been occupying this road for years. The silence of the car bored you, so you turned on the radio, searching for any station you could find. You couldn’t be picky, half of the stations went dead nearly a year ago.

Dark had fallen several hours before, and you began to feel a heaviness with each blink of your eyes. Your phone told you the nearest motel or inn was another thirty miles away and you were unsure if you could make it without falling asleep behind the wheel. Another mile closer to your destination and you had to jerk the vehicle away from drifting off the road and into the dirt ditch off to the side. Okay, fine, you thought. You pulled off to the side of the road, shut the car off and adjusted the seat back to lie down. You fell asleep as soon as you shut your eyes, dreaming of finally arriving to your destination which was still about a day’s trip away. You were headed across the country to a small town you had never heard of.

The Snap had taken nearly everything from you. Almost all of your family had been wiped out, forcing you to watch as they turned grey and collapsed into a pile of dust, scattering to the wind and disappearing as if they never existed. Many of your friends had been dusted, too. The worst part of it was that they all went at once; there was no warning, no preparation. All the deaths of all your loved ones hit at once. Not even a proper funeral could be held for the billions of lives taken just like that.

Granted, the Snap ruined the lives of everyone, but there was nothing for you at home any longer. It held too many painful memories. You wanted to start somewhere new, and that’s how you met a man online who told you of a town being built for the purpose of people wanting to start again and try to move on from their old lives. You honestly didn’t know what you’d gotten yourself into; up and leaving so suddenly, but there was nothing at home to hold you back. Besides, you finally got to take your first real road trip, even if it wasn’t spent in the company of friends or family.

When you woke up, the slightest hint of light on the horizon indicated that dawn was soon approaching. You squinted at your phone’s screen as your eyes adjusted to its brightness. Five hours of sleep, give or take. You wiped the sand from your eyes and started the car up again. At the nearest sight of a restaurant or store you would stop for breakfast.

You stopped at the next town, the one you would have spent the night in a motel instead of your car. Had it not been for the little girl chasing after her dog down the street, you were ready to write it off as just another ghost town and continued on. You pulled your car in front of a diner with no sign and walked in. A bell chimed when you pushed the door open, signaling the owner of a customer’s presence. The diner had that homey feeling all small town restaurants have. Up on the walls hung paintings of landscapes: mountains, rivers, animals in the woods, as well as photos of families fishing or having picnics. You also noticed art resembling that of Vikings and Norse mythology. Hung above one booth was a picture of Thor. Not an old painting or interpretation of mythological Thor, but a picture of real life, Avengers-member Thor.

You began to wonder about the Norse memorabilia when a woman with kind eyes and short, curly brown hair welcomed you, offering you a menu and a seat.

“Not many people drop by here,” the woman said after she served you your coffee. “Most folks think our town is abandoned and move on to the next.”

“That’s what I thought too, until I saw a little girl chasing her dog,” you replied after taking a sip.

“Little girl? Oh, you must mean Isabelle. That girl gets into all sorts of trouble.”

The woman stood up, shortly returning with the biscuit, butter, and two sausages you had ordered. It was all you were in the mood for. She set the plates and silverware down and sat in the booth across from you.

“So where are you headed? Or where are you from?”

“I’m going to a little town a day’s trip north of here,” you answered. You spread butter onto the biscuits. “I’ve never been, but I guess I needed a change in my life. Home is too painful.”

The woman’s expression changed from kind to sad. “Yes, the dusting hit us pretty hard too. I lost my husband and granddaughter because of it. We were a small town of three hundred, now we’re half that, and some of the younger ones left to do what you’re doing, I guess.”

“I’m sorry, I never got your name,” you said. “I’m ___.”

“I’m Sherrie Freberg,” she responded with a smile. “Nice to meet you, Y/N.”

“Freberg. That’s Swedish, or Norwegian, right?”

“Swedish, yes.”

“I actually noticed when I first walked in the Nordic paintings, and that picture of Thor over there,” you pointed over to the other side of the diner, the booth with the picture of him near the diner’s entrance.

“Yes, this town is -- was filled with mostly inhabitants from Nordic countries. The Norse religion in our town had a revival back in 2012 when our gods returned to us.”

“Wow,” you said with fascination. “You guys starting following Norse mythology again? That’s really cool.”

Sherrie’s smile became a frown. “It’s not mythology.”

You leaned back in your seat. “Oh, no. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to say it like that.”

“It’s okay.” Her face did not give an indication that it was, though. “We pray to the gods often that they will reverse the Snap. We have faith that they will. Thor can, at least. We’ve all seen what he can do.”

You couldn’t help but think about the fact that Thor had failed the first time. Your cynicism had grown worse ever since Thanos, but you kept your mouth shut. It was nice that this woman still had faith in something.

“So, you worship Loki, too? The guy who attacked Earth seven years ago?”

The frown did not budge. “Yes. We do.”

Okay, another nerve hit. You hadn’t finished your biscuit, but you started to wonder if it was best to pay and get moving. Sherrie excused herself. You took one last bite of breakfast and sip of your coffee and made your way to the front with your bill. There was chatter from the kitchen that you couldn’t quite make out, Sherrie’s voice among them. Sherrie came up to the register, taking your cash, and handed your change back.

“I’m sorry, by the way. I didn’t mean to offend you.”

Sherrie gave no response, and with that you exited the diner. You stopped outside the doors as you rummaged around in your purse for your car keys, gasping when you looked up to see that it was no longer there. It was locked when you had left it. You always locked your car. You sprinted to the parking space your car should have been occupying, stopping at the sight of broken glass glinting off the asphalt. How the hell did you not hear someone breaking into it while you were inside?

Though you ended on a sour note with Sherrie, you ran back to the diner. Maybe she would help -- contact the local police or something. Before you could turn around, a hand was on your shoulder; you looked up and a man with a thick beard and a frightening look on his face hovered over you. You hadn’t even heard him approach. His grip on your shoulder tightened and it was beginning to hurt. Fear and adrenaline flooded your body.

You shouted, twisting your body away from the man, but he caught your forearm before you could wriggle free.

“Get off of me!” you screamed, tugging against his grip to no avail. He pulled you toward the other car in the parking lot, a black pickup truck, and forced you inside. You screamed for help, calling out Sherrie’s name. She had to have heard you, the diner was right there and you were screaming at the top of your lungs. But she did not run out, and you did not see anyone nearby to come to your aid. Just before he shoved you into the back of his truck he pulled a plastic ziptie out of his pocket and bound your wrists together.

As the man drove, you banged on the windows, hoping to god that the truck would pass by someone on the street, or another car, and they would see you and know to call the police. It was a small town, but surely someone would see the truck?

The man made an angry growl.

“Shut your mouth already, your screaming is pissing me off!”

You leaned forward in your seat. “Where are you taking me? Let me out!”

“Shut up. I don’t want to hear another sound out of you.”

The drive was a short one, it couldn’t have been longer than ten minutes. The kidnapper stopped the car in a clearing in a patch of trees, away from the main road of the town, and certainly away from anywhere someone might hear you. Or so you thought.

Looking through the windshield of the car; ahead was gathered a large group of people conversing, and further past them something large and brown that you could not make out. Some kind of wood pile? It was hard to tell, it seemed like the whole town of one hundred and fifty was gathered here in this spot.

“What’s happening?” you asked. “Where am I?”

“Time for some results.”

“What?”

He put the truck in park and climbed out to open the door to the back, yanking you out harshly, almost causing you to fall to the ground as he did so. You were brought toward the crowd of people, who eyed you as if they knew you would be here.

“You really think she’ll make them happy?” a man of about fifty asked.

“Wh -”

“She’s a young girl, she’ll do fine,” your kidnapper said, cutting you off. He shoved you. You stumbled forward. “Just tie her up and let’s get this over with.”

Tears welled in your eyes. “What are you talking about? What are you going to do to me?” You were led forward to the pile of wood, and now that the crowd was dispersed, you could clearly see that it was meant for a bonfire. The tears began to flow and soon turned into sobs. Was this some kind of cult? Were they really going to burn you alive?

You screamed and fought as best you could despite not having the help of your hands to punch or shove your way out. The struggling made it harder for them to bring you closer, but ultimately it prolonged what you feared. You dragged your feet against the dirt; kicking, screaming, shifting your weight to make it as difficult as possible for these lunatics to do anything with you. Maybe if you screamed loud enough someone would come to your rescue.

“Please, God…”

The four men dragging you to the bonfire spit and cursed at you, while the other townspeople followed behind and shouted praises to various Norse gods. When the men finally got you to the pole erect in the middle of the bonfire, they held your arms and legs in place while one unraveled a rope. Your strength was withering from the thrashing and fighting back, yet you used every ounce of adrenaline you could muster because you weren’t going to die. Not like this.

They had you tied up now, hands already bound by the ziptie and further secured by the rope, and ankles bound just as tightly. You tried to free yourself with what pathetic mobility you had, causing you pain as the rope chafed against your skin. You let out a shriek of exhaustion and fear at the men and the mob who were about to commit this horrible act.

“Why are you doing this?” you shouted, your voice hoarse.

Your kidnapper stepped forward. “We have all suffered terrible losses since Thanos reigned his terror on the universe. If we sacrifice you to the gods, your contribution will give them the strength they need to win once and for all.”

“What the fuck are you talking about?!” you screamed. You writhed against your bonds, putting all your hope in the adrenaline coursing through you that it could give you the strength to break out.

“We have prayed to Thor, but it’s not enough. It’s time to pay tribute to Loki as well. When he sees our devotion to him, the trickster will join Thor and help him to undo Thanos’ atrocities.”

Hot, angry tears rolled down your cheeks, thick enough to blur your vision. One of the men who tied you up splashed gasoline onto the wood. Some of it lapped your shoes. It was happening, oh god, it was really happening. You were about to be burnt alive as a sacrifice in the fucking twenty-first century.

Shouting and chanting from the mob flooded your ears. They were gathered around now in a horrifying freakshow. Names of several gods were mentioned and praised, but most prominently the name Loki was repeated over and over. You shouted to the crowd below you, pleading with them to let you go. They were so caught up in their ritual that you weren’t even sure if they could hear you.

Your eyes widened as you watched a match being lit. It felt like an eternity between the time it fell from the man’s fingers and hit the pile of wood. In an instant, flames rose and whooshed around you. You screamed, the chanting became louder, fiercer. You shut your eyes as the heat grew more unbearable by the second. The flames began to lick at you. You were on fire. You choked on the thick black smoke that caused your nose and eyes to run more than they already were. You were being burnt alive. The burning had barely even begun but it was the most agonizing feeling you had ever experienced, and it was going to be your last.

There was nothing left to do but embrace what was to come and hope it would end soon.

But maybe your pleas did reach something or someone, because the pain that would only get worse ceased. The fear, the mob, the fire vanished all at once.

Then everything went black.

Loki Fanfic Idea

Everything in Loki Series still happened. Loki became the God of Stories EXCEPT he can leave whenever he wants and he goes back to his timeline to fix the movies, mess with the Avengers and to get them to be aware of the other timelines and Kang variants. Loki is the God of Stories now but he's still a manipulative little shit and he's a bit Dark.

Loki keeps his powers and who he is a secret, acting the way he used to in the movie just to mess with them, and he's all "I know something you don't know," throughout the story until eventually later on in the story, Thor realizes something is different (Cause I refuse to have Thor a total idiot, he has some smarts). Loki eventually joins the Avengers but the Avengers are distrustful but weirded out of Loki being out of character of course with his God of Stories outfit minus the helmet.( love the outfit but the helmet? not a big fan )

Loki is so done with Odin and doesn't care what he thinks.

Eventually he reveals what really happened in canon and who he is now.

- - - - - - -

Updates:

I read a fic and was a bit inspired to add in this part cause I needed to give a reason how Loki can leave whenever he wants.

Loki is still stuck sitting on the throne cause he still gotta keep the timelines from falling apart of course BUT he can split himself into different copies.

The name of the fic if you would like to know is called Glorious Purpose by Eustacia Vye

Loki saves Bucky early and become best buds lol

Loki knows about the Spider Verse cause duh.

Loki helps Peter cause he knows what happened In No Way Home.

Loki let's some things happen only cause it needs to happen for the characters to grow (kind of like Clockwork from Danny Phantom) this is one of the reasons why I tagged him Dark and manipulation cause he knows what's gonna happen but he'll help

- - - - - - -

To start off

He goes back to the part before he picked up the tesseract and disappeared, everything with the future Avengers trying to get the tesseract still happened but he doesn't pick it up.

So the Future Avengers were successful in getting the tesseract (so Steve doesn't go back and stay in the past just cause he saw Peggy from the window and leaves Bucky and Sam).The future Tony saw the tesseract slide next to Loki and saw he didn't take it and escape.

With everyone distracted with Tony on the floor he teleports away to Endgame and helps defeat Thanos but he doesn't stay. He visits canon Thor though cause I feel bad for him

[N] Rescue

by Zeronay

A few years after seeking the Sorcerer Supreme's help after the Ultron-fiasco, Tony is sure he loves Doctor Stephen Strange. Maybe it's even mutual, he's sure he would've found out if it weren't for Thanos and his lackeys invading earth in search of the Infinity Stones. After eradicating half the universe, including Stephen, Tony does everything in his might to bring everybody back. Because a world without Stephen Strange and Peter Parker might not be worth living in.

STORY PROMPTS I MADE WITH CHARACTERS

Feel free to use them (tag me) even if you change the characters!

(Mainly angst bc i was going through a bad breakup ):

• Wandas your soulmate but she leaves/chooses Vision instead (said the stones connect them in an even more powerful way then the words on your hip) Your left heartbroken. Natasha isn’t close to you but she knows how it feels to be rejected so she becomes your rock through the pain. (Your Soulmark slowly fades away) One day new words appear on your skin on your wrist (or over your heart) they’re the first words Natasha spoke to you. (Nat x Reader, PastWanda x R)

• Hope and Reader are dating and so are Josie and Landon. Turn out Hope and Landon cheated on their girlfriends with each other. They end up finding out and breakup with them. They lean on each other bc they can both understand what they’ve been through they end up falling in love tho. Josie x Reader endgame based off of Rush by Lewis Capaldie and Jessie Reyez

• Hope & Y/n are dating. Y/n finds out Hopes cheating on her with Landon and at first denies it until the evidence it basically

• Natasha and R were dating but Nat was a push and pull so R ends it bc Nat was too hot and cold and leaves New York and ends up in National City ends up dating Kara but Kara basically acts like R needs constant protecting etc. (based off of All I want Olivia Rodrigo) R tells Kara she can take care of herself and has proven it time and time again but Kara continues even Alex tries w/ Kara but Kara constantly treats R like a damsel in distress. Avengers end up in National City with Nat wanting R back . R has to choose Nat or Kara or Herself. (readers vote in who Y/n ends up with!)

6. Carol Danvers x Reader (That’s us by Anson Seabra) off n on again relationship. At first it was steady but Carol was away and Y/n was always so busy. They love each other very deeply but it’s like the universe is making everything against them but time and time again they find their way back to each other. Ending is probably open ended.

7. One night Wanda’s walking home from the library when she looks up and sees you standing on the edge of a roof. Everyone goes about there business no one seemingly notices. She goes into the alley and flies up when she gets there she watches as you sit on the ledge leaning your stomach against the pole that wrapped around the ledge. You pull out a joint and smoke when she creeps on behind you you must’ve sensed her coming bc you pulled out your headphones and looked at her. Dialogue prompts - “I’m not going to jump, don’t worry” you say notices the worry in the strangers eyes, “Why are you sitting here then?”, “Because I want to jump but I won’t”, “You want to but you won’t?, “Yes, everything in me screams at me to jump to finally have peace from this beautifully broken world but I won’t. I cant leave my family no matter how much I want too I don’t want them to have to bear the pain of my death.” “It might be selfish of me to want to leave but it also feels selfish of them to make me stay. If I’m unhappy with my life why not do something to fix that unhappiness right? But I can’t because they’ll be in pain and they’ll hurt. No matter what I choose I lose.” “Have you always felt like this?”, “The thing with depression is, it never goes away, no matter how much medication you take, how many years go by, it’s there. It’s always there.”

8. Y/n is Jules sister and when Nate Jacobs gets kicked off the football team they need a new QB which is Y/n. Cassie and Maddie both find her attractive and make a bet to see who could score a date w/ her first. They ask her all kinds of questions about if she likes anyone etc. she answers them and some of the questions point to her liking one of the girls. They ask if it’s anyone they know and she replies with yes. Eventually they get tired of the back and forth and ask her which one of them she likes (they’d go on ‘dates’ but Y/n always thought they were friend hangouts) bc she can’t have both. Y/n confused asks what they mean and explain to which she replies she thought they were just being nice and trying to be her friend. She apologizes and slyly looks behind them to meet Lexi’s eyes and replies she doesn’t like either of them but Lexi and proceeds to ask Lexi out. See on Y/n’s first day at in town she ran into Lexi and they hit it off.

9. Y/n is a neurologist who has the powers of intuitive aptitude (she can learn things despite how complex it is extremely fast) things and ends up on the avengers. Y/n can’t really understand social cues so she’s kinda awkward but she studies humans brains and bases how she acts on what she’s learned. Natasha or Wanda has a crush on her and tries to ask her out or flirts with her but she doesn’t know they are. One of the avengers gets fed up with seeing Wanda or Nat (better yet both maybe a WandaNat x Reader) pine after Y/n and flat out tell Y/n WandaNat has a crush on her so Y/n goes up with them tells them to pick her up at 8 or something like that.

10. When Fury stops by in Age of Ultron he brings Y/n who has energy manipulation. She was in Struckers program except she didn’t volunteer she was taken. She knew pietro and Wanda but In a mission was captured by SHIELD (Coulson’s team) anyways she jumps at the chance to go help the avengers and try to bring Wanda & Pietro back on the good side. She saves Pietro but gets hurt kinda bad in the process Wanda kisses her which shocks her but reciprocates bc she cares deeply for her.

11. Y/n L/n loves Natasha has since they were children, problem is Natasha didn’t love her, not in that way. They always had each others backs and it was always Natasha & Y/n until Bucky Barnes. A series of events caused by Bucky lead to Natasha’s death. Y/n never understood what Nat saw in Bucky and no matter how many times Bucky fucked up forgetting date night, missing anniversaries, yelling at her for little things, coming homs drunk at 3 in the morning, she always went back to him. She’d tell Y/n “love is hard and who am I to give up on love?” Bucky gambling and getting into a deep debt unbeknownst to Nat costing her, her life. With Y/n telling Bucky “you never deserved her” “and you did?” “I would have treated her better then you ever could’ve. I loved her through everything and even if she didn’t love me I was always there for her, not you” She totally punches Bucky. No matter what it was always Natasha no matter how many times she broke Y/n’s heart she’d always choose Natasha. (Maybe a flash forward to Wanda x Y/n in the future. Y/n visits Nats grave the day after she married Wanda. Then again the day after Natalia (her daughter) was born. Y/n telling her she still loves her she’ll always love her and that she misses her and wishes that she could’ve met Wanda and Natalia. Another one where it’s been awhile since she’s visited her and she talks about how Natalia is so much like Nat when they were kids too curious for her own good, extremely smart, and she loves ballet saying she wanted to be like her Auntie Nat)

none of these are proofread and i wrote them when i was like 16 so don't judge and im just clearing my drafts rn lol

SteveTony Weekly - March 5th

I’m going to be incredibly busy over the next few weeks so how many stories I read will be less than normal--hopefully it’ll even out some in April. In the meantime, enjoy this week’s recs and be sure to give a comment/kudos for your fic authors! 

~*~

***Covered in Lines by royal_chandler

He can’t lose sight of pale, deft hands that gesture on transitive verbs, an ink-stained thumb edging underneath Tony’s ribcage with an affection that can only be called dangerous.

The Sea is Calling by justanotherrollingstony (adoctoraday)

The storm took everything from Steve and left him empty and alone.

Tony has been swept away on the rough tides, taken from everything and everyone he loves.

The sea takes and takes and takes and gives nothing back.

adjustment period by mistymountainking

Tony and Steve have been together for a while now. They love each other a truly sickening amount. Unfortunately, Tony's issues have issues.

only a kiss by mistymountainking

Tony wouldn’t be the first to admit it—he wouldn’t be the third or the fifth or the fiftieth, even—but he’s a very physically affectionate person. For a man who doesn’t like being handed things, he loves using his hands to show his fondness for others. He has his little touches, arm pats, shoulder squeezes, handshakes; hugs are almost exclusively reserved for Rhodey and Pepper (Happy, Steve’s learned, isn’t a hugger), but no one is exempt from being kissed when the mood strikes Tony Stark.

No one except Steve, apparently.

a moment in the sun by mistymountainking

“—I mean it’s crazy right? It’s crazy, Tony Stark, Tony Stark calls us up out of the blue one day and says ‘You’ll be waiting six months to a year for a decent repair job, let alone a complete replacement, and I owe you guys, come on by Avengers Tower—”

breathe with me by mistymountainking

“If footage from my sweet sixteen made it into this lineup, we’re watching all three Die Hards."

It’s Wednesday, and Wednesday means movie night at the mansion.

we'll hold each other (soon) by mistymountainking

Moments after the bright blue light of Tony’s arc reactor goes dark, Steve knows what he has to do.

tomorrow can wait (come whatever) by mistymountainking

The picture isn’t damning, Steve reminds himself. They aren’t engaged. They aren’t dating. They’re just friends. The pose is damning enough, but he’d be an idiot if he didn’t admit, at least to himself, that it’s his face that sells it. His face is why The Picture™ has been the #1 trending thing on Twitter for going on twelve hours, and why Clint whistled Wagner’s bridal chorus at him when they walked back into the tower last night.

He looks like he’s in love. Which is fair, because he is. With Tony.

His fiancé.

***

Steve and Tony are photographed mid-battle, which is par for the course. By the time they get home, the whole world thinks they're engaged, which is...not. But it's not a big deal—they'll figure things out eventually.

Excuses, excuses by S_Horne

“It was just that last lecture, the one on Wednesday,” Steve started, plucking his notebook off the top of his book pile and flicking through it. “I left feeling a little confused. I understood it all, but it wasn’t my favourite one. Do we have to write the paper on that topic, or can I focus on something else?”

Tony laughed as he pushed his chair backwards and stood. “That,” he said as he rounded the desk, “has got to be the worst excuse you’ve come up with yet. And I’m including the time that you came to tell me that the lights had been left on in my classroom.”

***a rose by any other name by meidui

“Just Steve,” he says quickly, softly, and his voice is music to Tony’s ears. “Please call me Steve.”

Tony can’t help but stare as it occurs to him that he should have prepared a proper greeting. What on earth is someone so young and pretty doing in an engagement like this?

-

There are a lot of things about Steve that make this arrangement easier than Tony thought it would be, but then there are a lot of things about him that complicate it, too.

flight risk by meidui

Tony is discharged from the hospital on his birthday, a beautiful May afternoon. The kind of sunshine that warms you up forever.

Mine by tinystark616

Steve doesn't have a problem with the fact that Tony likes to have one-night stands. It's none of his business. That is, until he has to witness Tony making out with Thor right in front of him.

tony's stickers of love by ArabellaAM

When Tony prints a couple of "Tony Stark Approved" stickers as a joke, the last thing he expects is to end up covering Steve's heart with them.

What if I Were To by blue_jack

“I know I said you could pick my next PA, but this is ridiculous.”

I Hear the Winter's Leave by thistlethorns

The thing is, Tony genuinely didn't know he had a soulmate.

time cannot replace by SailorChibi

When Steve is told that he has amnesia and has forgotten the past three years, naturally the first thing he does is call his boyfriend, Tony.

A Common Guttersnipe by betheflame 

When Steve Rogers walks down the runway, Tony Stark stops breathing. He must have this man as a client - he can make him the biggest movie star the world has ever known.

And then they meet, and Steve opens his mouth, and that accent nearly kills Tony. He makes Steve a bet - in six months, he can make even Anna Wintour think that Steve graduated from Phillips Exeter, and in return, Steve will let Tony sign him as a client.

Steve takes the bet, thinking he has nothing to loose.

And then he learns that the rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain, that he could have danced all night, and that the world will still run without Tony Stark, but goddamn if he wants it to.

The Space Stone by TheDrow

Steve returns to put the Tesseract back… except its not as easy as he originally thought. And there’s someone in the past that he’s actively trying to avoid…

I'll be better for you, I promise by Frogdottir "Peter had always hoped that in his last moments, he’d be taken on a brisk walk down memory lane. Maybe he’d be greeted with a compilation “Best of: Peter Parker,” with a music box pinging in the background. The scene would be painted in some golden hue, and there would be soft edges and dulled laughter. Instead, Peter was greeted with a blinding white light and an insurmountable pain. Eventually, his nerve endings fried, and he felt nothing on his right side at all. He had wielded the forces of the whole universe in his fist, and it had been excruciating. Nobody was meant to hold that kind of power. He never wanted it. He hoped that whatever deities waited beyond the gates of death for him understood. He hoped they could forgive him."

Steve glances at her with what she can only describe as a small, fond smirk. "You're not alone in this," he murmurs.

She breathes in, gathers up the courage to grasp him on the shoulder. "Neither are you," she says.

They stand there, mourning together in the silence, because that's how the two of them have always been.

(Or: Natasha Romanoff had three families. She's going to get them back and/or die trying.)

Part 3 of "a single loose thread"

Excerpt:

"Yeah," Scott says, snorting. "Then you wouldn't have lost the Tesseract to Loki."

"You did what?!" Natasha says. Honestly, she shouldn't be surprised.

Rhodey pinches the bridge of his nose and lets out a long, tired sigh. "Tony," he reprimands.

"Hey, losing it was a team effort!" Tony protests. "We got it back eventually!"

"You got a different version back," Scott points out.

"Loki has the Space Stone?" Thor asks.

"2012 Loki."

"That's not good."

"Tell me about it," Steve says.

"Wait, but...isn't there now a divergent timeline because of that?" Bruce points out, concerned.

Tony frowns. "...Let's not think about that right now," he says.
