Bucky had learned early on that life had a way of going to shit on very short notice. As a kid, that had meant running around and goofing off with Stevie only for an asthma attack to come out of seemingly nowhere. During the war, it meant creeping through the wilderness or a town or a base only for bullets to start flying. One minute you could be fighting back to back with your best friend, the next you could be falling to the bottom of a snowy chasm. That was just life.

JARVIS announces, “Sir, Peter Parker is on his way up. Shall I direct him to the workshop?”
Tony has never sighed so much in his entire life. “Send him over.”
Peter appears moments later, face red and eyes frantic.
“Don’t tell me you webbed all the way here?”
“Mr. Stark, he’s dangerous!” Peter exclaims more than yells. “Have you heard what he can do with a potato peeler?”

How Tony totally meant to volunteer to be the Winter Soldier’s handler, you know, like on purpose (and not because he had been deliriously awake for 56 hours on a quest to put Fortnite into the grave before Fury had asked). This is obviously Pepper’s fault.
[MCU/AU where Tony became a S.H.I.E.L.D operative early in life, and paved a satisfying career of intrigue doing so.]

Tony Stark disappeared shortly after the Avengers started coming into their own. All traces led to dead ends, and time marched on. In the spring of 2017, it came to light that Hydra was deeply intertwined with SHIELD, and Captain America found out his best friend still lives. Now, James "Bucky" Barnes has come home, more or less. His mind is his own, including the fractured memories that flit just beyond his reach. A drop-in appearance by former SHIELD director Fury clarifies one thing: the Winter Soldier had met Tony Stark.

Yeah, no, fuck this, Tony would like a refund thank you, 110% would not prefer to die today, die, die like mom and dad who were dead back in that car-
December 16th, 1991.
It's an important day for HYDRA. The acquisition of the means to create several more soldiers for their cause- and the day that Anthony Edward Stark falls into their hands. The handler likes to think of it as the day of birth for their second greatest asset.

Prompt fill from imaginetonyandbucky: During Afghanistan, the ten rings got frustrated and sold Tony to hydra for hydra weapons and made him the Iron Soldier. After Steve gets Bucky back from Hydra (idk Cap 3 w/ civil war?) Bucky not only remembers the other winter soldiers, but the soldier he fell in love with (Tony) and basically him and Steve go save him (like when they went to Siberia in the movie but none of the "running from the law" stuff)
So I didn’t follow the prompt exactly because there’s already a great story like this on ITAB already and I wrote something similar to it not too long ago (Making a Hero), so I went in a slightly different direction. Instead of Hydra getting Tony from the 10 Rings, they got their hands on him when they assassinated his parents…

He’s obviously in the warehouse district near the docks, probably in one of the abandoned packing plants or something of the like. Honestly at this point this kidnapping couldn’t get more cliché if it actively tried.
“Service sucks and the wait staff stole my clothes,” Tony whispers, unable to help himself as he slinks down the hall, “Zero stars, would not come again.”

HYDRA didn't create only one magic-user while in possession of Loki's scepter. There's another, and his powers are... a little different from Wanda's. The Avengers crew breaks into a HYDRA base to rescue Tony, who was kidnapped three weeks ago. Only, he isn't the way he was when he left them to go check out the place. Instead, he's now five and a half years old. And he's absolutely terrified of Steve. The Avengers do what they can to keep little-Tony happy until they can get Strange to come take a look at him, and (hopefully) change him back to his rightful age. It's not so easy dealing with a traumatized five-year-old, though, especially one who has some major attachment issues. Toward Bucky, of all people. Throw in some HYDRA shenanigans, and it makes for an interesting time, if not the most peaceful. Older-Tony isn't going to appreciate how much little-Tony blabs, either, but it's pretty hard to tell a five-year-old to shut up when no one wants to hurt his feelings...

Tony's practically become an old hat at being taken hostage, but something's fishier than usual this time around: his captor looks twenty-eight but claims to know Howard Stark, the NYPD negotiator is a SHIELD plant, and what's this about a fleet of helicarriers set to launch? (TWS AU.)
