@summerpipedream Guuuuuuurl, okay let me lay this on you real quick before I hit the hay. 
Tony is Holmes au. Ey?
Now let’s take that Tony is Holmes bit, let Holmes stay as Holmes, have Holmes live through the 1800s and 1900s along with Mycroft, let Holmes be the ancestor of Tony, let Holmes go visit his most recent relatives, Howard, or even Maria who knows! Get renamed Arno Holmes while Mycroft goes by Gregory Holmes, let Holmes become a sort of friend to this relative, get named honorary godfather to the newly born relative, ya following me? And let Holmes be Tony Stark’s godfather. 
Just imagine. Sherlock as a godfather, talking his old cases to Tony like bedtime stories. Eh? Being that complete introvert uncle that Tony absolutely loves. Tony having stars in his eyes as he watches Sherlock beat up some wanna be kidnapper, toying and taunting them while they fight. Sherlock probably being a secret agent of sorts, and with Mycroft’s contacts, a very informative agent that knows more than Shield, and currently tying up someone for locations, stopping mid-knot to answer his phone, surprise! It’s Tony and he wants to say hi to his favorite uncle. 
“Hey there, case.” 
“Uncle Arno! I won first place.” 
“You did? That’s great! I’m sorry I couldn’t attend. I’ve had my hands tied recently,” he says as he shakes the hydra grunt. “Tell you what. To celebrate, let’s head to your favorite place. I’ll even bring Gregory.” 
“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” 
Sherlock keeping his accent, making him the third person in Tony’s like with that accent, and going out spy style as the new world becomes more and more secretive, wearing a fine, tailored suit much like his brother, fighting with the suit and looking like someone right out of a Kingsman film, probably wearing the glasses, too, gadgets included and all. He’s not as dangerous as Mycroft, when it comes to hiding the body and nobody will ever know, but he sure knows how to fight and predict outcomes quickly. He scouts for information and nobody expects him to know how to kick ass. 
Surprise, surprise. He beats them to a pulp. 
Then also include the bit of Mycroft being the one to use his resources to find Steve and locate Bucky, but instead of doing it out of obligation he does it for gain. Having someone as beloved as Captain America indebted to him is a great benefit. Also, it helps that Sherlock got to befriend and fight alongside Steve, remembering the old times fighting alongside John. 
Sherlock/Arno and Steve maybe getting together once Steve’s adjusted and Steve becoming Tony’s second godfather. Steve being a total dad and embarrassing Tony. Sherlock sitting and drinking his tea not lifting a finger to save Tony from the dad jokes and adding some himself. 
I just want Sherlock as Tony’s uncle and family feels. Steve as another uncle is a bonus. Once they manage to heal Bucky make him a third uncle as well. 
You feel me?
