Here we have Carol Danvers and Tony Stark during a rare moment in their early thirties. Struggling with alcoholism was hard for both of them. After she failed to stop a Kree invasion on a planet far from Earth, the planet was ravaged and burned. It had been early in her hero career, and she’d fallen into drunkenness. It had worn her down to nearly nothing, and she’d been skin and bone by the time she’d seen fit to seek help.

Tony still had scars from the Middle-East, the reactor in his chest the least of his worries. The PTSD, the waking nightmares were keeping him up most nights, black bags under his eyes and constant headaches meant he couldn’t work, even when he wanted to. He’d resorted to drastic measures, and drank himself to sleep most nights. It had made him irritable, and more than anything it had made him SCARED. He was becoming like Howard, something he’d sworn not to be.

They’d found each other once the Avengers had formed. Carol, after a few years had come back to Earth, hunting down the remains of Ronin’s acolytes, and had stumbled into a bar one evening, pissed out of her goddamned mind. Tony had joined her, recognising her. They’d been dorm-mates in college, before Carol had joined the Air Force to pay off her debt. It had taken a little while, but soon it was like old times.

Their bond had grown since then. They’d supported each other getting sober. One day, they got together, boxes of beer and cider in their car boots. They met at a nearby disposal site, pouring the foul liquid down the drain and throwing the glass into the disposal bins. They’d laughed and cried about it, clinging to each other.

They found solace with each other in the early hours of the morning, and the late minutes of midnight. When one had a relapse, the other followed not soon after. The shakes, the nausea was awful, and both ended up screaming and cursing at one another at one point or another.

But as bad as it got, they trusted each other, and soon, they began working through it. They grew closer. And it was Carol that fell first, and she fell hard. Her previous three relationships had been women. Of course, she swung both ways, but she’d preferred the girls more than the guys. So when she saw Tony asleep at his desk one night, messy blueprints scattered across the worktop, she stopped short when she felt her heart skip a beat. Oh. Oh. She was down bad. Carol helped him back to his bedroom, making sure he was comfortable.

“J, notify me if he wakes bad, please?” She asked the empty room. “Of course,” JARVIS assured her. It didn’t make her feel better, not much anyway, but she left him to sleep.

It was Tony that fell next. They were sitting across from a bottle of beer. Two shot glasses sat by it on the coffee table. His fingers twitched, and she looked to him. “Just a little more,” she assured him. “We got this.” Tony felt Carol’s hand on his reactor, his back stiff and his hands itching. His tongue was dry. He was sweating. She was shaking like a leaf, her eye having developed a tic from the effort it was taking to keep away from the bottle. “Five more minutes?” He suggested. Carol hummed. “Five more.” Her voice was unsteady, and Tony hated how terrified she looked.

He placed his hand, once on the armrest of the setee on her hand that rested on his repulsor, squeezing it. “I got you.” His voice was warm. “You got me?” He was uncertain, but Carol looked him in the eye. “I got you,” They sat there for a moment, and Tony swore his sensors were malfunctioning. They leaned forward and kissed, holding each other tight, all thoughts of the bottle in front of them out of their minds for what felt like hours.

Fireworks. That was all they could describe it as, loud, rambunctious, and celebratory. It felt right, and as they pulled away, Carol rested her head on his shoulder. “So the tin man has a heart after all,” she murmured. Tony snorted. “If I’m the Tin Man you’re Dorothy.” Carol smacked his chest and he chortled. “Lion,” she bargained.

“Lion it is.” Tony snickered.

Yes this is ship art, and Carol is only two years younger than Tony in this, and they are both in their thirties.

It’s a real shame we didn’t get to see more of TonyCarol in the MCU. I think it’s one of Tony’s best relationships (he has SO many good ones) but their dynamic offers so much to play with that would make great live story arcs. We should have heard Tony call Carol “SpaceFace.” Also I just think of Tony holding and playing with Goose Chewie 😍, TonyGoose would be a chaotic duo in it self!

The Russo’s knew that if they had Pepper, Carol, Rhodey and Steve in the funeral scene for too long the combined top energies would resurrect Tony which is why they were all separated send tweet

Tony and Carol have a lot of the same traits and characteristics. I can understand how they bounce off each vibe. Do I always have to laugh when stans of either character try to hate the other. We got robbed of not the best friendships in Marvel onscreen. I do think there is sexism though, they should be treated the same. But the stans that go out of their way to be shady when they love each other is funny.
