Darcy Lewis hadn’t meant to become an astrophysicist. She really, really hadn’t meant to. She was on the track to graduate with her poli-sci degree, make her mother unreasonably disappointed when she gets into another fight with like eight different politicians on Twitter.
But then it was just...pointless.
And Jane was a very good mentor. She didn’t even mean to be, but Jane basically just told Darcy to do various different tasks that she had no idea how to do, which led to Darcy signing up for astrophysics class and also essentially teaching one of Jane’s.
(Everyone in the class passed except for one sociology major, thank you very much!)
It was an interesting field, and it helped that Darcy had the literal leading expert in the field both as her friend and her boss.
She was actually really good at the theoretical aspect. She always did like seeing how smaller pictures led to bigger pictures.
She’d been the puzzle champ of middle school summer camp for three years straight, after all. She’d earned that reputation fair and square.
When everyone else had disappeared, she hadn’t. She graduated alone, celebrated alone, and decided that looking at space and everything to do with it was at least something she could do to try and figure out where people went.
SWORD is created because SHIELD is essentially a shadow of a company and Maria isn’t gone.
Maria Rambeau is an absolute boss and organizes everyone and gives everyone hope that maybe everything isn’t completely fucked up. That’s what everyone tells Darcy, who’s really only joined SWORD at the tail-end of the Blip.
She meets Photon once. Once is enough to make an impression.
Darcy’s been consulting with other scientists and because scientists are the most antisocial people ever, they know everyone. You know one, you know ‘em all.
She becomes Agent Lewis.
And she hates that term because she’s not an agent. She’s not suave, she’s not cunning, and she made a knitting circle in SWORD that meets every Thursday afternoon from four to six, or whenever the first person taps out.
(Sometimes longer, because...well...you need longer.)
She goes by “Dr. Lewis.”
Darcy has earned her title and Jane would be so proud and also such a little shit about it.
So she keeps it.
She doesn’t have a lot to do until after the Blip. Everyone is in space, helping fight against that gigantic purple man who’s ruined everyone’s life, and all she can do is navigate some of what they’re doing and wonder who’s coming back.
And then Westview.
They don’t tell her where she’s going, because even though she works for SWORD they are gigantic assholes and Maria isn’t there anymore.
She didn’t disappear, no that would be too kind to them.
She lost her life, and no one wanted to be the one to tell Monica about it, no one wants to tell Monica that Maria had fought so hard, and it wasn’t enough. The service, at least, had been nice.
And then she learns all about it.
The television shows, the themes, and then...Monica.
Who doesn’t seem to know she’s trapped in there, calls herself Geraldine, and then something...something happens.
Only her and Agent Woo are really looking at what’s going on in the show. Everyone else is trying to get in, trying to beat an impenetrable system at its own game.
Geraldine disappears. She says something, something that Wanda doesn’t like. Darcy knows it.
And then she’s back.
Monica Rambeau is back in that ridiculously-cute-not-gonna-mention-it-now blue outfit, and she says that it’s Wanda.
Darcy knew it, on some level. She doesn’t know what sort of wacko would trap some weird version of Vision too. Why bring Vision into it when he’s...gone? He’s been gone. People knew that.
Who would bring him back, for what purpose? It would make sense to have Wanda try and work towards him, win whoever it was over.
But they didn’t.
And now everyone knows why: there is no they.
Only she.
Dr. Lewis is hoping that she gets hazard-pay for this. She has a feeling she’ll need it.

for a potential prompt: bucky and tony meeting at a bookshop?
Tony’s fingers grazed lightly upon the various books that he passed as he walked down the aisle, loving the feeling of the old and used books. Currently, Tony was wandering around this bookstore, The Silver Haunt.
To be completely honest, Tony wasn’t even planning on walking in, but unfortunately for him, someone had shared his location on social media.
(Which honestly wasn’t fucking cool at all. After spending weeks promoting some film he was the lead in and being pushed to answer unnecessary questions about his current love life—which was pretty much nonexistent, but the press and his fans would never believe that, especially after photos of him and Thor napping and cuddling together were leaked—Tony thought he deserved some quality ‘me time.’ He had just wanted to go on a small walk, get some fresh air, and have some quiet time for himself. Should have he brought Sam and Maria, who were his bodyguards? Yeah, probably, but Tony’s never been one to fully think things through.)
It wasn’t long after that, a small hoard of creepy men—who don’t understand the basic decency of privacy and space—with their flashy cameras, and some overbearing fans started to follow him, Tony sought sanctuary, which is how he came across the independent bookshop.
Once Tony dashed inside, he immediately became enamored with the shop. Practically, the shop was filled to the brim with books, some new, some old, and some encased in a glass container—which Tony assumed were rare first editions. There was even a spot within the shop that was designated as a cafe and lounge area.
Thankfully, the shop was pretty vacant. And the customers who were there paid him no mind, all of them seemed to be focused in the different worlds that they were escaping in. Tony figured he could spend at least an hour or so in The Silver Haunt before it would be safe enough to step back out and head back to his hotel.
So, in order to kill some time, Tony headed over to the science fiction section. His eyes scanned the various books, debating which one he should jump into.
“Hi, is there anything in particular you’re looking for that I can help you find?” A voice from behind Tony asked.
Tony, who wasn’t expecting anyone to be speaking to him at all, jumped at the voice and fell over, knocking down the stack of books that were meticulously and cleverly stacked into the shape of a UFO in the process.
“Oh my gosh. I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to scare you!” the same voice said.
Embarrassment filled Tony’s soul as his cheeks flushed to a pretty shade of red. “I... um,” he stammered, still too embarrassed to form a complete and coherent thought. A hand reached out to Tony. Tony finally looked up to the person and let out a small gasp.
Holy shit.
Holy fucking shit.
The voice that Tony was startled by belonged to a gorgeous brunette.
Tony gulped and hesitantly took the man’s hand.
“Are you okay?”
Tony was certain that if he were even attempt to bother speaking, it would just come out as gibberish. So, he nodded.
“I’m James,” the man who in Tony’s opinion had no business being that hot introduced. “I own this place.”
“T-tony,” he stuttered.
God, Tony, he chastised himself mentally, pull yourself together man!
James grinned at him before looking apologetically at him. “I’m still sorry for scaring you.”
Tony, who finally managed to pull himself together, waved off the apology. “It’s not your fault.” He turned back to look at the fallen books. “I can fix that,” he pointed.
“Nah, don’t worry about it,” James reassured. “I can just make Clint fix it later, have it be one of his punishments for using an actual taco as a bookmark for one of the rare first edition books I found.”
“I’m sorry, but did you just say that someone used a taco for a bookmark?”
James nodded and sighed. “Yeah, unfortunately.”
Tony gave him an incredulous look. “How does that even happen?”
James bit the bottom of his lip and motioned his head over to the cafe area “If you’re free, I can tell you all about it, pictures and all.”
“You got yourself a deal, gorgeous,” Tony replied, not realizing his slip.
James beamed and turned around but suddenly froze. He turned back around, “Did you just call me gorgeous?” A teasing smile on his face.
Tony blue-screened as his eyes widen. “Uhhhhh, yes?”
The two stood face to face, the silence thickening. Tony was afraid he had messed everything up and was about to apologize but was cut off when James spoke.
“You’re not too bad yourself,” James teased as he turned and started walking towards the cafe. “C’mon, doll, lemme tell you about the disaster that is my one of my employees and current housemate,” he called back to Tony.

"let me know what you think when i'm done" with tony?
“Let me know what you think when I’m done,” Tony said to the group, sitting at the piano.
“I’m still confused,” Steve whispered to Pepper, who was sitting next to him, “I didn’t know he knew how to play the piano, let alone composed music.”
She responded with a small nod, “His mother taught him when he was little. Only plays for people who he really trusts though. And honestly, I didn’t know he composed either.”
At that, Steve looked around at the group sitting around the piano, listening to the piece that Tony had composed. All of the other Avengers were there, along with Pepper and Rhodey, both of whom had stopped by for dinner, which Tony had insisted on because they were both in town at the same time.
No one had really understood why Tony had pushed so hard to have dinner together as a team, along with Pepper and Rhodey, but now it all made sense. His obvious anxiety had seeped away as he started to play, all his closest friends listening closely to the piece he had put together.
And by all means, Steve thought it was one of the best pieces he had ever heard. It was soft but upbeat, a happy tone that didn’t feel obnoxious. It reminded Steve of simple pleasures, like a nice walk in the park on a warm day, or being able to sleep in a bit longer. Steve didn’t know much about music, but he knew he loved what he was listening too.
Towards the end, the tempo gained speed, leading to a more inspiring feel. It felt like something that might be played at the end of a movie with an ambiguous ending, but even more subtle than that. Like he knew what the message was without having to put it into words.
All too quickly for Steve’s liking, as he wanted more, the music ended. Tony looked at them again, the same apprehensive look he had before he started playing having come back. And just as quickly as the music ended, the clapping started, and the apprehension visibly left Tony’s body.
“That was amazing Tony!” Rhodey exclaimed, walking up to his brother in all but blood, and giving him a bear hug.
“Yeah Tony. I’ve never heard anything like it, and I mean that in only the best way,” Natasha had said with Clint and Thor nodding along.
“What inspired it?” Bruce asked. Tony looked down, blushing a little.
“Ummm… well, it was actually you guys. I mean, just your friendship and family. You guys are the most important people in the world to me, at least that are still alive. I just thought of how you make me feel at home, and this is what came from it.”
“What is it called?” Steve asked, trying to avoid tearing up a bit from Tony’s response.
“Little bits of happiness.”
#let me know when you think i'm done#tony stark#avengers#avengers as family#i know absolutely nothing about music#especially playing it#but i did this anyways#i had to read this prompt like 5 times bc it didn't make sense bc i kept reading it wrong#definitely thought it said#i was so confused#lovelyirony#my writing

before hyacinthus was loved by gods, before he became the sun-kissed, the warning, the story of passion gone horribly wrong, he had a family.
his children and his children's children had his charm, his strength, his looks, and the knowledge he did not: a holy love is a dangerous thing, a truly deadly thing.
they move around throughout the centuries, never leave too lasting a mark behind, other than vague memories of blinding beauty and godly pain-until another of the line is born.
a vicious redhead, all scarlet and sin and shadows, her smile and voice too enthralling to be credited to anything other than the hints of magic in her bloodstream.
her ancestors, her family, are a warning.
do not be loved by gods.
you will burn and burn and burn.
but natasha romanoff does not fear a mythic love, an immortal curse, not anymore.
she does not accept that love.
she grants it.
an ancient pain becomes a new threat.
they should have listened to the hyacinths.
#this is to go along with lovelyirony's cassandra au!!#we were talking about tony and nat and then this happened and i love it#hyacinthus au#marvel#natasha romanoff#black widow#textpost#eliza writes#mcu#marvel cinematic universe

bruce banner, when he thinks he's alone, slides in different rooms in his socks with music blasting and also sings at the top of his lungs thank u for ur time
listen, bruce’s favorite movie is risky business but he doesn’t tell anyone this because it’s like, his guilty pleasure film and he only watches it in the privacy of his own room. the only other person who knows about this isn’t even a person. jarvis monitors everyone’s activities and he can see that movie is the most played in bruce’s netflix account. he also owns it on apple tv and has the blu-ray.
he’d never admit to it, but when bruce is alone in his lab he takes his shoes off, safety procedures be damned, and slides around while the music blasts through the speakers around him. he’s become really good at controlling his sliding too, so he never knocks into anything. he has not once spilled any toxic chemicals anywhere, and he’s proud of himself for that.
so one day he’s done with his work and heading up to the kitchen for a quick snack before taking a shower, and he thinks he’s alone at home. the spy twins are at shield, thor’s back in asgard, and steve and tony are on a date. bruce has the place all to himself and he’s going to indulge. he runs from the stairs then transitions into a glide and slips through the kitchen doors super gracefully. he nods to himself. yeah, that’s a 10 pointer right there!
he puts together a sandwich and holding the plate, slides his way into the living room to eat it in front of the tv. when he’s done he slides back into the kitchen to wash his dishes, then again, sliiiiiides over to the elevator to go back to his room.
except, the elevator doors open and steve and tony manage to catch bruce sliding to a stop right in front of them. it’s the cutest thing seeing him gleefully slipping and sliding around like a little kid, but bruce is kind of embarrassed about it. “can you pretend you didn’t see this?” he asks.
“oh hell no,” tony replies. he kicks his shoes off and sprints out of the elevator and slides to the couch. but he loses his balance and falls on his face, which makes bruce laugh his ass off.
bruce picks his science bro back up and they spend the next hour competing with each other on who can slide the furthest in their socks from one side of the room to the other. steve’s not allowed to compete because super soldier serums are a distinct advantage. they end the night by watching risky business together.
at the next halloween party, bruce goes as joel goodson from the movie and shows up in just a dress shirt, tiny briefs, and socks. thor almost has an aneurysm when he sees bruce.

I asked @lovelyirony for some Nebula/Mantis prompts and she inspired me to write a little ficlet! Also, half of it deleted just as I finished so I had to rewrite it :/
~~
Mantis knows she’s there, hovering in the doorway.
Knows Nebula has knives on her, is holding them in her hands.
Knows she needs to actually be testing out her newly constructed limbs, but is awkwardly standing there.
She won’t say anything, unless Nebula makes the first step into the room.
No judgement, always.
She’s wearing a rainbow coloured pantsuit, because she once told Nebula seeing happy colours makes her feel more happy. Plus Peter had introduced her to ‘vintage’ and she’d promptly bought fourteen pantsuits.
“What are you making?” Nebula said finally, stepping into the kitchen. She doesn’t go over to Mantis, not yet, but leans against the fridge.
“Rocket brought me a cookbook,” Mantis said, turning slightly to smile at Nebula, soft and sweet. “I am attempting a ‘pancake’, it does not look much like a cake in a pan, so I don’t think I am doing it right.”
“I’m sure it will be delicious.” Nebula said awkwardly.
“Well, currently its not.” Mantis said, sighing and dropping the chunky and strange looking batter down the drain. “Maybe I’ll get Peter to show me tomorrow.”
Mantis’ antennae twitched as Nebula was abruptly reminded of the mission yesterday. Mantis had nearly died, and Nebula had to completely replace her arm and part of her side.
Clockwork parts for a clockwork girl.
“Dance with me.” Nebula blurted, turning away from Mantis, towards the jukebox.
“Alright,” Mantis said, as Nebula started playing something classical and without words. “I’ll teach you how to waltz.”
“Mantis, I’ll step on your feet!” Nebula protested. “Can we not do an energetic sway?”
Mantis laughed openly at the familiar line, before sliding into Nebulas space and starting to move her limbs into the right position. She didn’t seem to mind the rough unfinished scrap from her new arm, and directed her without hesitation.
“You’d never hurt me.” she stated calmly.
Nebula focused on calming herself, at the blind trust Mantis had around her even after everything.
They stumbled over each other, Mantis only really seeing TV shows and Nebula unused to dancing and not fighting.
“People dancing, and no one invited me?” Peter said dramatically as he entered with Gamora trailing behind him.
He caught hold of Gamora’s hand, and decided to start dancing, except it was a more flailing, jumpy dance with something that Nebula had been informed was a ‘dab’ mixed in with him trying to spin Gamora as well.
Gamora obliged, laughing slightly at how ridiculous he was being. He held out a hand towards both of them, still doing a eccentric shuffle. “Come on, join the group.”
“We were dancing first Peter, and we’re actually waltzing.” Mantis said, even though they were just swaying and watching both of them now.
“Waltzing smaltzing,” Peter said cheerfully, letting out his own laugh when Gamora decided to dip him. “Gamora back me up.”
“Why not?” Gamora said, letting go when Peter spun her out again and reaching to catch hold on Nebulas hand. She glanced knowingly between Mantis and Nebula and if Nebula could blush she would have. She accepted Gamoras hand and Mantis started copying Peters weird shuffle while Peter cheered her on.
“You alright?” Gamora said as they watched Peter start teaching a bleary eyed Drax to ‘dab’.
“Yeah,” Nebula said, watching as Mantis laughed as Drax spun Peter. “I think I will be.”
“I’m glad your girlfriend cheered you up.” Gamora said teasingly and Nebula choked.
“She’s not, we’re not-“ Nebula spluttered. “We’re just friends!”
“You keep telling yourself that baby sis.” Gamora said, winking at Nebula and joining the dancing group before Nebula could defend herself.
Nebula would have gone after her, but Mantis glanced over and held out her hand encouragingly and Nebula settled for death glaring her sister over Mantis’ shoulder.
(It didn’t help the warm feeling in her chest when Mantis held her hand.)
#peter quill : dorky space demigod#nebula : angry blue robot#mantis : better than everyone#gamora : soft and deadly#drax : pirate angel admirer#rocket : deserves better#nebula/mantis : emotional seesaw#peter q/gamora : star crossed#written for someone else#lovelyirony#perdix writes

Sharon has the worst ice cream taste in the tower and it is Only Shared by Bucky, who has the similar Garbage Taste
They were eating ice cream like anyone would on a day that depressed them. Aunt Peggy’s birthday. The first one without her.
Sharon’s ice cream was a sickly yellow with weird glossy chunks of something. It disgusted Tony. He’ll stick with his moose tracks thank you. They sat at the stools at the breakfast counter in the kitchen.
Tony was almost done with his ice cream when his boyfriend walked in. Bucky walked in with fuzzy pokémon pants and a stark industries t-shirt. Tony watched Bucky’s bulging muscled arms open the freezer. He bit his spoon and moaned lowly, and was about to tell Bucky where he could eat his ice cream that he was getting out when Tony saw that the ice cream Bucky was getting out was the same sickly yellow as Sharon’s.
The label read Pineapple Pecan Ice Cream.
“We’re over,” Tony said.

91 winteriron???? "i remember everything"
91. “I remember everything.”
Tony yelped as he was slammed back against a wall, hands immediately going up to cover his chest. He couldn’t help a sigh of relief when he realized it was just Bucky. “I. Have. A. Heart. Condition,” he ground out, because really, he’d reminded all of his teammates at least a dozen times. So maybe it wasn’t necessarily as bad as he played it up to be sometimes, but it was really nice not having any of the assassins scaring the bejeezus out of him all the time.
“You left me,” Bucky snapped back.
Tony blinked up at him, confused, before letting out a slightly hysterical laugh. “Oh, come on. No I didn’t!”
“Yes, you did,” Bucky said firmly. “I don’t know when you left, but you did.”
Tony masterfully didn’t grimace, instead flippantly trying to smack Bucky’s hands off his shoulders. “I have no idea what you’re talking about. I came in, saw you drinking Asgardian mead with Steve, and left while the going was good.”
Bucky didn’t let himself be deterred, changing his grip to lower down on Tony’s arms. “No, you didn’t.”
“How would you know!” Tony exclaimed. “You were so drunk you couldn’t even see straight!”
“I remember everything,” Bucky snarled.
Tony froze, staring up at him. Oh. Oh no. That meant he remembered Tony bullying him and Steve up to their rooms, and Tony falling prey to Bucky’s charm when he’d tried to put him to bed, and Tony sneaking out after Bucky passed out while kissing him.
That meant he remembered Tony whispering how he wished Bucky would do this when he was sober, and not believing Bucky when he promised he’d properly kiss him in the morning because he liked him and wanted to ‘date the hell out of him.’
“You didn’t believe me, did you?” Bucky asked, and he looked hurt at the thought.
Tony had no idea how to say ‘I thought you were pretending I was someone else’ without looking pathetic, so he just dropped his gaze to his feet, unable to help feeling a little ashamed.
Bucky let go of one of his arms to gently grab Tony’s chin between his fingers, tipping his head up. “One day you will,” he said softly, and then, “Let me keep my promise, doll.”
The kiss was soft and tender and everything Tony hadn’t known he wanted. He blinked up at Bucky dazedly as the other man drew back, lips parting with a wet sound.
“…But it’s not the morning,” he managed after a moment.
“Tony, oh my God,” Bucky said, laughing in disbelief. “Fine. I’ll kiss you tomorrow morning too. And every morning after that.”
“I won’t be available tomorrow morning. I have to go to California for a business meeting.”
“Then I’ll cling to the armor so I’m there with you tomorrow morning,” Bucky said, shrugging.
Tony jerked away from him, appalled. “I’m taking a jet, you neanderthal, I don’t take the armor everywhere, you think I can wear a suit in the armor? I would rather die than show up to a board meeting with wrinkled clothes. Get away from me. I decline any further kisses until you apologize to me and to my tailor.”
“Tony,” Bucky laughed, and leaned down to kiss him again to try and quiet him. Then he leaned back to laugh again, because Tony had continued complaining against his mouth. “Okay, I’m sorry!”
“–Think I can come out of the armor looking like roses, as if a Kiton deserves such disgrace, how dare you–”
Bucky tried not to laugh some more at Tony’s cantankerous display. It didn’t really work. “Tony! Tony, I’m sorry!”

marvel authors to follow (a non-exhaustive list)
@oldboldsellsword replied to your post: im so tired of people calling the mcu fandom dead...
Thanks for the recommendations! Always love new people to follow.
hey!! i hope you don’t mind me jumping on this but if you’re looking for new people to follow:
@iam93percentstardust: alle writes basically every ship under the sun, tho she does focus on buckytony and stevetony, and she has new work out almost every single day. she’s also got so many AUs in the works like, yall rly don’t understand how blessed you are to have Alle in this fandom
@anthonyed: i personally enjoy their buckytony the most but they’re extremely good at writing both stevetony and buckytony - and actually just got done with a buckytony AU
@spiderrpcrker: tanya has a lot of reader inserts and she comes up with extremely creative desi aus if that’s something you’re interested in. she also dabbles in peter parker centric-fic
@starkrogerrs: possibly one of the best stevetony authors i know, Ash literally just got done with 4.5k worth of Eros/Psyche stevetony AU.
@firebrands: honestly nadine’s produced so much fic these past few weeks, and her non-linear stevetony beach fic is the stuff of dreams
@lovelyirony: jess singlehandedly writes so much fic for obscure ships and rarepairs, and is the only reason i have any interest in Sharon Carter as a character.
@feedmecookiesnow: i want to say that ive read more of OP’s work but i haven’t had a chance; but they did write me this amazing fic so im going to err on the side of caution and say that they’re extremely talented anyway
@imposter-human: brooklyn writes so MUCH fic its honestly insane and she’s currently got a winterironwidow spy AU going on thats quite frankly amazing
@brucewaynery: sakshi is an extremely underrated stevetony author, and her current Oceans 11 AU is amazing
@ambivalentmarvel: im not usually one for gen fics, but OP has this amazing ironsoldier AU that i will be recommending until i die
@natasharxmanov: jordan writes for both stevetony and superbat (and if im not wrong arthureames but its not a fandom im a part of) and everything she writes is poetry
@riotfalling: QUEEN of buckytony. there is nothing that riot cannot do and i am constantly in awe of her
@therollingstonys: i don’t know the mods personally but the blog is a plethora of art and fic and its honestly quite amazing
@s-horne: OP has written so much content for stevetony honestly like i feel like they deserve some sort of prize
@omg-just-peachy: peaches is saving the world one fluffy stevetony fic at a time
@starklysteve: i’ll be honest, ive only recently started following OP but the couple of fics ive read from them are amazing
@deathsweetqueen: i dont think i can rec Simi enough she has the most intricate AUs and is honestly a godsend to the desi marvel fandom
@kimannhart: jo honestly has some of the best buckytony content out there, and is actually go set me onto the samtony ship in the first place
//
these are just the authors that i know personally or interact with on a regular basis, but the point is - if you want fic; its out there. this fandom is far from dead but its honestly on its way given how hard it is for writers to get any interactions with their fic these days
#oldboldsellsword#this is just for authors#but anyone who wants to add to this list#to signalboost other authors or even artists#please free free to add to this

hey! i hope you’re having an amazing day. this is just me popping in your inbox to say that’s youre one of my favourite writers and you got me really interested in winteriron (honestly one of the cutest ships) are there any fics/authors ii could reccomend?
Hi there! Thank you so much! I love this ship so much, they’ve got such potential for both fluff and angst. They really are one of my favorite ships to write and I’m glad I was able to write so much for them this year. I certainly do have plenty of recs for you, starting with my favorite authors:
@riotwritesthings: started writing last year, I highly recommend just about everything Riot writes but especially Road Hazards, Melt into Me (Your Words are My Own), and When is a bed not a bed? (When you’re not in it)
@hddnone: so many stories and all so good! Has nearly 100 Winteriron works on ao3 and you will not regret reading any of them, though fair warning that some of them are Team Cap Critical. Especially recommend Honey Pot, You’ve Got Mail, and A Bit(e) of Danger
@monobuu: mostly an artist but sometimes writes stories as well. i recommend Ravioli, Invincible Summer, and Meet the Fam
@tisfan and @27dragons: can’t make a Winteriron rec list without including the both of them. They work together a lot but you should definitely take a look at their own stuff as well. I recommend Safe and (the) Sound, Kiss Me Thru the Phone, and Stark, Naked
@ad1thi: currently taking a bit of a hiatus and working on non-Marvel works but I love everything Adi writes, particularly her entire Bollywood but Make it Gay series, which isn’t always Winteriron but wonderful nonetheless. I recommend the Greek Gods AU, 1000 Lives (For You), and we’re connected
@the-winter-writer: lots of smut and all absolutely fantastic! I like Precious Treasure, Winter Wings, and Instinct
@rayshippouuchiha: definitely an iconic writer for this fandom. Really great if you’re looking for genderbends. Writes a lot of absolutely incredible fics and not just for Winteriron but my personal favorites are The (Not So) Great Pretender, Fearful Symmetry, and The Mistletoe Kiss Polka
Finely Honed (jaqen_hgar): once again very iconic. you’ve probably read at least one of their works even if didn’t know. I recommend Shameless, Today’s Forecast, and Practice Makes Perfect
@lovelyirony: mostly writes ficlets here on tumblr and a multishipper (I don’t know why I’m saying that like it’s a bad thing, I’m a multishipper), also a fan of Sharon Carter and that’s the thing that made me follow her so you know
@amethystinawrites: I only recently started working their works but I’m loving everything I’ve come across so far. I recommend Tech Support and I Won’t Hold My Breath
AvocadoLove: also writes a lot of Stony and Stuckony, which I love a lot, but for their Winteriron works, I recommend Amalgam and Dead Man’s Switch
Dracusfyre: another one I’m new to. I literally just started reading their works today so I don’t have any recs for them yet but one of my friends loves them so I’m going to go with you should definitely take a look at their works
Eirlyssa: has some anti-Team Cap works so keep an eye out for that if that’s not your thing but writes very good Winteriron. I recommend Guide Me Home (Guide My Heart) and Always (I’ll Be There)
@imposter-human: one of the first MCU blogs I ever followed! I recommend childhood memories, speak my language, and lost in translation
As for specific works I like:
Four Strings and Second Chances by Vashoth
It was reluctance to let one of his finest inventions ever out of his grasp that made him take a couple days over a week to send the arm to Pepper’s office. But all things considered, Tony figured that sending finest prosthetic that had ever come into existence--literally grasping an olive branch--was one of the classiest gifts he’d ever given. He’d included a note and everything.
‘Barnes,
Can help with installation. Or not. Up to you.
--Stark'
Who is the Mechanic? by @akira-of-the-twilight
The Asset watched as his handlers brought in a stranger—a man with a metal object stuck to his chest that was hooked to a car battery.
The handlers shoved the man onto the stool where many who had operated on the Asset’s arm in the past had sat before.
“Asset,” one handler said, “meet the Mechanic. He will be responsible for the upkeep of your arm. Should anything malfunction, kill him.”
The Asset eyed the Mechanic. The Mechanic was glassy-eyed and unresponsive.
He’d probably be dead in a week.
The Fix by SleepsWithCoyotes
Right, because Tony...Tony fixes things. He remembers thinking that, not for the first time.
Paths are Made by Walking by @potrix-the-queerschlaeger
The road to recovery is long, winding and a different one for every person walking it. Bucky chooses to help himself the only way he knows how; by doing what he does best.
Or, alternatively; the one in which Tony is a mess and accidentally kick-starts Bucky’s protective mother hen instincts.
The Evidence by StrivingArtist
Didn’t notice. Right. Sure. Two brilliant minds, two super spies, and a god didn’t notice when the chattiest man they knew stopped making sound. They just seemed happier than before. Brighter and more cheerful than before. They just seemed like they were more comfortable with him around when he was stone silent.
Fuck it.
He knew they noticed.
And he knew they liked him better this way.
Shadowed Hearts and Winter Souls by NotEvenCloseToStraight
The mid-1800s and Antonio Carbonell Stark is caught in a scandal with his lover. Desperate for a chance to escape the trouble and his own broken heart, Tony accepts a proposal from a mysterious Russian heiress and flees the country.
Natalia Romanova is in trouble of her own and has enough secrets to make Tony's head spin but somehow they settle into a fake marriage and calm day-to-day together, and everything works... until her half brother comes home and their life is disrupted again.
James is somber and silent, brutal and nearly broken and scarred, a soldier of the resistance. His
heart is cold and gaze like ice, but his hands are hot and lips are warm and Tony finds himself ignoring the blood on James's palms and the shadows in his soldier’s eyes, and falling in love.
When danger lands at their doorstep, Natalia and Tony have to pack up and leave, running away in the middle of the night and leaving their men behind.
The distance between Tony and James gets longer every day, and Natalia has been keeping a secret for that can’t be hidden much longer. With no place to call home and a thousand miles between them and the men they love, what are Tony and Natalia supposed to do?
Puppy Love by Reioka
Bucky is learning to become a person again. When some guy starts crying all over Natasha's dog, he decides he's doing better than he originally thought.
Describe Your Perfect Date by ali_aliska
After getting turned down by Bucky, Tony decides it’s time to move on from his massive crush. He tries online dating—Pepper’s idea, not his—but the only thing worse than getting rejected is getting rejected and finding out your soulmate-level match is Clint Barton, all in the same day.
Clint, of course, does not let opportunities like this go to waste, but he’s driving Tony nuts for a good cause, he swears.
Bucky’s just trying to do the right thing and fails spectacularly, but it all works out in the end.
Rocket Science by marsmaywonder and orbingarrow
Sleep-deprived and under-caffeinated, grad student Tony falls asleep in a conveniently empty classroom and wakes up in the middle of Bruce’s Physics 101 course. After seeing a groggy Tony fumble a simple question, actual-student Bucky offers to tutor him. In a moment of “oh no; he’s cute” panic, Tony takes him up on it. Now, in addition to his already complicated life, Tony has to figure out the answer to the incredibly messy question: “How do you look like you’re failing the class, when you literally wrote the book?”
What’s Good for the Goose by Taste_is_Sweet
For this nonny prompt at the Imagine Tony and Bucky comm on Tumblr:
"A soulmate AU where an immortal goose shows up one day to lead you to your soulmate, the challenge is surviving the goose." (Full prompt in notes.)
We all have soulmates, and every soulmate pair shares an animal guide. The Guide is there to lead you to your One True Love, and they represent the aspects of the psyche that you both share. They appear when you're about to meet your soulmate, and often materialize in moments of great personal crisis, offering hope and support. There are stories upon stories about how someone's Guide appeared to lead them to their One True, or how the barest glimpse of their Guide eased their hearts and gave them hope in the midst of despair. The newly-rescued almost always attribute their Guide with giving them the strength and courage to hang on.
Animal Guides are ephemeral, ethereal, and elusive. They are, most often, no more than a warm presence or flicker out of the corner of one's eye. They are incarnate symbols of perseverance, optimism and hope. Foretellers of happiness, and the grand destiny of love.
Except for geese. Geese are assholes.
and so, we unfold by TheKitteh
Senbazuru. Thousand Cranes.
An ancient Japanese legend that promises anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by the gods. Some stories believe you are granted happiness and eternal good luck, instead of just one wish, such as long life or recovery from illness or injury.
Bucky’s not big on believing in any legends, not after all that has happened. He just wants to create something for a change, not destroy.
He needs to prove himself that he can be trusted to handle something delicate. He doesn’t need a promise of a wish come true. He just,- needs to do this for himself.
He doesn’t need noticing how sad, tired Stark looks. Doesn’t need to want to do something for the man, when he can barely do anything for himself.
---
Tony simply goes through days and motions. He deals with the Avengers, with R&;D, with the rewritten Accords. All of it, it’s nothing new really. He just wants to get things done.
What’s new is seeing Barnes hunched over the coffee table, one step away from ripping a glossy magazine apart in the middle of the night.
And why the hell Barnes keeps looking at him during the days after like he’s a puzzle to be solved?
Welcome to the Winteriron fandom! We’ve got a lot of incredible authors and artists both and this is just the tip of the iceberg!

for @lovelyirony because her style inspired me while writing this
The first thing, the first real thing, that Jim notices about Tony Stark is his hands. His hands: not manicured, not delicate, not soft or smooth, not perfect. Not what he expected from a rich kid whose daddy’s money paves the way for every milestone of his life.
No. They’re rough and calloused, with engine grease, of all things, still under his nails, and scars around his knuckles that don’t look like they’re there from fights, but rather from hours of long work resulting in skin that doesn’t heal properly.
They’re mechanic’s hands, worker’s hands, the same hands that Jim, who’s worked on his dad’s car and his momma’s stove all his life, has.
So. Tony Stark, heir to the grand fortune of Stark Industries and son of the American hero–the Merchant of Life–Howard Stark, has something in common with Jim Rhodes, nothing but a momma’s boy from rural Pennsylvania.
Jim keeps that in mind.
The second thing he notices is the way Tony speaks. It’s an observation that comes after a few weeks of knowing him, not within a few seconds, because Tony’s voice changes, and it requires attention to notice. And care. Jim notices because he’s…paying attention. Because he cares. Huh.
That’s an emotional thread to pull on some other time, he decides.
But Tony’s voice…it surprises him, because the almost childish babble laced with excitement is so different from the sharp quips paired with sharper smiles and different still from the slurred words that hold no meaning but build up so many walls and the furthest from the seductive purr belonging to someone so many years older than Tony.
Tony’s like a parrot, mimicking the tones of those around him, blending in so that no one realizes he doesn’t belong, but Jim does. Because he’s paying attention.
And maybe that’s why he’s the only one who gets to hear the babble, the voice that maybe belongs to the real Tony.
The real Tony.
Jim wants to meet him more than he realizes, or understands.
Why is he so attached?
He’ll figure it out some other time.
The third thing that Jim notices is the way he sleeps, and he thinks that the only reason it took him this long (almost four months) to notice is because Tony doesn’t sleep while he’s awake. When Jim falls asleep, Tony’s awake, or not even in the dorm, and when he wakes up, Tony’s awake, but more often than not, gone already, unless he never came home in the first place.
Home. Huh.
When he comes home–to the dorm–after a late night of studying, Tony’s there. In bed. Asleep.
And it’s so different than Jim was expecting.
Tony’s not sprawled out, like he should be, not taking up space, like he owns it, not acting like a rich kid who’s there because his daddy put him there.
Because he isn’t any of that, and Jim knows that now, but it’s still a shock to come home and see Tony–who’s so much tinier than he thought–curled up on the edge of the bed, knees tucked to his chest, a whole two feet of bed unused behind him.
Like he’s leaving space for someone. Like he’s waiting for someone to slip in behind him and complete the puzzle he’s created. Like he’s waiting for comfort he’s never gotten before.
It…hurts.
And Jim can ignore it, at first.
But then Tony mumbles in his sleep, almost rolling off the bed, and the pieces of the puzzle don’t matter anymore, because Jim slips in to fit them together.
And Tony relaxes in his arms.
And it feels right.
And Jim knows, now, why he was paying attention.
#look they just. they're good okay?? i love them. they're good.#this can be read as platonic or romantic whatever floats your boat but it's rhodeytony through and through#also i'm ABSOLUTELY gonna elaborate on that 'merchant of life' thing if people want me to because yes it's a single line drop but!!#it is there for reasons and it's Important To Me and i have an explanation as to why it exists#anyway. please take this as my offering for disappearing for two days and not writing for like. four or five days.#tony stark#james rhodey rhodes#rhodeytony#ironhusbands#ironhusbands drabble#tony stark drabble#mcu#marvel#i continue to not know how to tag but we'll go with these ones#aven.writing#lovely tag

my new ideas for iron man comics:
tony buys disney and just decides to make a movie about a kraken finding love. the song ���tainted love” has to be in it and they hire jack black to be the kraken.
like yeah it’s the end of the world but tony and rhodey are retired and on vacation except tony isn’t exactly retired but rhodey thinks he is so it’s just tony trying to find more activities that rhodey can be distracted by so that he can try to stop the end of the world (and it works)
makes a cooking show and he just invites avengers and heroes over and is like “so. you think you can beat me in cooking” “tony you didn’t tell me this was a competition show” “whenever you’re in my presence, life is a competition”
he decides he will be learning how to walk in high heels and so he just. is in high heels throughout the video
analyzes heroes but in like. the worst way possible. he brings clint in and is like “you probably buy local soap. why.” “tony i thought we were gonna talk about our teamwork together” “i don’t care about that tell me about the soap and why you chose lavender” “how the fuck did you know that”
he just holds babies the entire time. there are eighty issues. just babies. also one joke about jeff bezos being shitty
tony ranks the different heroes he’s slept with and almost starts a world war because dr. doom got mad at his ranking

made up fic title: an eternity of never
Tony never thought he would ever find someone who would ever love him back.
He admits that some of his past relationships weren’t always the healthiest for him—Tiberius and Sunset being the prime examples—but when Tony could, he tried to find love. And when Tony thought he did, he came to learn that his partners never were with him for him.
A good majority of the time, they were just with him for his name or his money. There were some instances were they were just with him as a bet or as a joke—learning about those always hurt him the most.
No partner—whether it be sexual or of the romantic nature—that Tony ever had loved him they way Tony loved them.
But no matter how many failed experiences, Tony always tried to find that someone. That one good person that was meant just for him.
He wanted to be held the way he saw Jarvis holding Ana. He wanted the soft good morning kisses followed by the slow and lazy morning sex. He wanted those cheesy handwritten love letters.
Tony just wanted to be loved.
He thought that when Rhodey entered his life he could get that. They tried for a short bit, and while Tony loved him wholeheartedly, Rhodey didn’t. Rhodey tried—and Tony will forever love him for that—, but he just couldn’t love Tony in that way.
It hurt Tony a tiny bit, but the pain didn’t last that long. Tony learned that while he yearned for romantic love, platonic love was just as great. And if that was all Rhodey could give him, then Tony would take it.
When Pepper came into the picture, Tony never thought he would fall for her… but he did. They tried the relationship thing too, but it didn’t work. Sadly, they just weren’t compatible enough for each other. It hurt the both of them, but it was okay. They stayed best friends, and they found that work better for them.
Years went by, and Tony had come to accept that he would never find the one for him.
But then, someone new entered his life.
It happened by pure chance. Tony was attending a gala that was being held for Military veterans. And just as he got his drink from the bar, he immediately slammed right into someone, spilling his drink all over their nice tuxedo. Luckily, Tony’s drink was just water, but he still felt terrible for ruining someone’s clothes.
When Tony started to apologize profusely and gazed up to their eyes, Tony was smitten instantly.
“It’s okay,” the man reassured. “It’ll dry.”
Tony gulped when the man gave him a smile.
The man reached out his hand, “I’m Sam.”
A blush crept onto Tony’s cheeks. “I’m Tony,” he replied, shaking Sam’s hand. “I’m sorry for spilling my drink on you again. I can get that dry cleaned for you.”
Sam let out a chuckle. “It’s just water, it’s really no big deal… but if you really want to make it up to me, there is one thing you could do for me.”
Tony perked up and nodded. “Of course, anything!”
“Dance with me?”
Tony sure as hell wasn’t expecting that request, but he accepted nonetheless.
They chatted the whole night, neither of them leaving the other’s side. And when the gala was coming to an end, Tony had thought they would go their separate ways and that would be the end of that. But, Sam surprised him and gave him his number.
Since then, the two talked and hung out constantly.
Inevitably, Tony fell in love with Sam.
Tony was never going to admit it to the man, not wanting to ruin the friendship that they established with each other. He planned to pine in silence and get his heart broken once Sam found someone to love.
But apparently, Sam had different plans.
Sam admitted his love for Tony.
And that? That threw Tony for a loop.
“You love me? Are you sure?”
Sam rolled his eyes. “Of course I do, you idiot. How could I not?”
Tony stammered, but was quickly stunned into silence when Sam pressed his lips against his. Tony melted into the touch as he kissed back.
“And I’m pretty sure, you love me too,” Sam whispered out as he rested his forehead against Tony’s. “Do you?” he hesitantly asked when Tony didn’t respond.
Tony could hear the fear in Sam’s voice and he didn’t like that one bit. Thankfully, Tony squashed that fear, nodded, and kissed Sam once again. “Does that prove I love you too?”
“Yeah, yeah it does.”
They kissed again, and soon enough, Tony dragged the man to his bed, wanting to show him just how much he loved him.
As Tony stared at the sleeping man the morning after, there was only one thing that crossed his mind:
Someone finally loves me too.
