“Mr. Stark? I, uh, I'm still not entirely sure how to do this, but the gentleman told me to leave a message, so I guess...” A sigh rattled over the phone line. “Look, Tony, I'm going to level with you – they told me I had one phone call, and you... you're the first person that popped into my head. So, yeah, I, uh... I've sort of been arrested, and I know we don't always see eye to eye, but I – if it's not too much trouble, that is – could really use some help, if you... you know what? It doesn't matter. Sorry for bothering you, Mr. Stark.”

A reworking of IM3.

Tony Stark had a secret identity long before he became Iron Man.

Following his parents' deaths, Tony was desperate for some privacy from the press. So he and Hank came up with a way for Tony to be two people at once. Which was fine, until Afghanistan and then his second identity had a name - Iron Man - and then there was New York and the Avengers and Steve Rogers. Then he discovers his crush on Steve is requited and he’s juggling two identities and a relationship, while working with Hank and Hope to figure out if Jan is alive. And then there's whatever Darren Cross is up to with the Pym Particles.

In an alternate universe, Tony Stark never came out as Iron Man, even to his teammates. Sometime after CA:WS, Bucky comes to the tower, regains his memory, and rekindles his relationship with Steve.

A year later, Steve and Bucky realize neither of them have ever had sex with anyone else, and they probably won’t if they keep their relationship monogamous. When they decide they want to explore, Bucky decides to ask Tony for a one night stand, and Steve decides to ask Iron Man. Both of them bite off more than they can chew, as they both discover that they’re in love with their extracurricular lover - while still being madly in love with each other. Tony just hopes it’s all worth it, because if they ever find out it was him with both of them, he’s pretty sure they’ll never want to see him again.

Poly!Avengers

When Tony agrees to a cooking date with a new boyfriend, the Iron Man immediately panics because he DEFINITELY cannot cook at all and desperately needs a recipe that will disguise his kitchen disaster-ness and general food gremlin tendencies.

The team steps in to help Tony learn to cook. They share their favorite recipes, put the kitchen back together after the inevitable mess, and try hard to not let the truth of everyone’s collective crush on the genius slip.

Tony has no idea that every single member of the Avengers would be all too happy to kiss him while cooking, thrilled to hold hands during movie night, and full on ecstatic to cuddle up together in the mornings. They are ALL in love with Tony and if he ever looked up from frantically studying his recipe cards, the brilliant billionaire would probably figure it out.

The team just wants Tony happy, so they stay quiet about their feelings, Tony learns to cook, and on Saturday night Tony is out the door to see his boyfriend...

…unless…?

There’s plenty of weird shit to deal with after fighting aliens, like “How Does One Dispose of Alien Remains Without Poisoning the Water” and “Wow Insurance Companies Are Really Not Equipped for This,” but Tony suspects that “Steve Rogers is Actually Very Funny” and “Steve Rogers is a Stealthy Bastard” probably shouldn’t be as close to the top of the list as they are.

“I just, I’m not always great with words, but I saw how Tony talked about you and then I saw how you talked about Tony and I just, well, I couldn’t unsee it. But then we came back here and now I see the way I look at Tony and I can’t unsee him the way you do… the way he’s meant to be seen.”

Steve scrubbed a hand over his face and through his hair before speaking, “Even if we can get Tony on board, it’s not gonna be easy Buck.”

Bucky gave a familiar, relaxed shrug, “defending your aggressive, skinny ass in every back alley in Brooklyn wasn’t easy either, but it was worth it.”

"I’d like to file a formal complaint!” Steve announced a few days later, stomping into the kitchen and leveling one of those patented All American scowls in Tony’s direction. “Why would you give Bucky a kitten? The damn thing is like a hairball of knives! PLUS he named it Steve! Bucky named that piece of fuzz Steve cos he said it acts like me before the serum!"

"You before the serum.” Tony had to work very VERY hard to keep his face calm. “Why– why ever would that be?"

"Because its tiny and scrappy and it’s mouth is too gotdang big for its size!” Steve yelled. “Bucky gave it a bath and then took a picture and sent it to me! He said Kitten Steve looked like a drowned rat just like Human Steve used to!"

“Uh yes, good morning?” Clint also stuck his head into the kitchen. “I’m here to file a formal complaint? Bucky is teaching Kitten Steve to hunt birds and if that mangy cat takes out any more of my hair, I will be billing Stark Industries to pay for a toupee, alright?"

"Oh good I’m so glad Kitten Steve is catching on.” Steve muttered.

(Or: Tony gets Bucky a kitten and shenanigans and falling in love ensue)

There was a tight smile to go with the tea, along with metallic fingers brushing against his own as he took hold of the mug. There was a stubborn child within his heart that resented the kindness of the gesture. He’d been working on disciplining his inner child though, because Bucky wasn’t going to stop doing nice things for him anytime soon, not by a long shot. Tony didn’t really want him to, anyway.

“All I’m saying is, the guy was walking like he’d been dicked to within an inch of his life.” Clint shrugged. “And seeing as how we are all here, Bruce doesn’t do that sort of thing, the only other explanation is that our resident god of thunder gave Tony the yeehaw of his life last night.”

“Two things.” Steve held up a finger. “First, don’t ever say ‘the yeehaw of his life’again. That’s a terrible sentence. Second, I know for a fact that Tony had a date with a nice girl from Colonel Rhodes’s church last night so–”

Clint laughed so hard he was practically screaming, cackling peals of disbelieving laughter over shadowed by Sam guffawing over the thought of Tony dating a nice GIRL, much less a nice girl from church.

“Point of order!” Natasha had to raise her voice to be heard. “Tony is practically snack sized. Anyone could get him walking with a waddle. Hell I’ve got a sparkly pink strap on that would get the job done. Let’s not assume he went ass to hammer with Thor just cos he’s walking funny.”

Three sets of horrified eyes met hers and Natasha sighed. “He’s standing right behind me, isn’t he?”

Bucky has lived with the Avengers for a while now, and he's mostly settled in. During the process, he fell for Tony Stark - hard - but he can't quite bring himself to admit it to the brilliant engineer. So he just does what he can to take care of and protect him, hoping that maybe the other man will fall just as hard for him... and be the one to take their relationship to the next level. In the meantime, he's noticed that there's one member of the team that Tony seems afraid of, and he is definitely not pleased by the notion.

Once he finds out what Wanda did to cause that fear, she might wish she'd never left Hydra.

In a world where no one knows the identity of Iron Man, Tony Stark is the best thing since sliced bread, at least in the opinion of one Steve Rogers. He doesn't like to let anyone know that - especially not Tony - but one day it sort of slips out. Luckily it's only to his best friend, and Shellhead won't tell anyone. What could possibly go wrong?

Tony is born with a soulmark.

Everyone is born with a mark- unless their soulmate is already dead. What’s unusual is how sometimes Tony has a mark and sometimes he doesn’t.

No one knows what to do with that. Marks only disappear when a person’s soulmate is dead. But one day, Tony had a mark and then the next he didn’t. Tony had barely had enough time to realize that something was wrong before it was back.

~

Steve is also born with a mark.

But when Steve is injected with the serum, his mark changes. Marks aren’t supposed to change. They’re supposed to remain static, as static as the fact that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

~

The Asset doesn't know if he was born with a mark or not.

He would probably say that he was born with one because everyone seems to have one but, if it's not important to his mission, then he doesn't know.

He does have one though. It appears immediately on his metal arm the first time they attach it to his shoulder.

Everyone is born with a soulmark but some people's marks are faulty.
