fillers or aus i would love to play 
running list; if you're interested in any of this, throw up a starter and i am there
  • steve + peggy
    • Peggy and Steve's reunion when he returns to the past.
    • That dance scene. /sobs
    • Anything about their life afterward.
  • steve + tony
    • Conversations about Peggy or Howard, or anything else they'd talk about during their 2-man mission to the past
    • First time Steve and Tony interact after Tony calls Steve out on how failing together sucks.
    • Did Steve and Tony ever talk during those 5 years? If so, what did that look like?
    • [au] Tony survives, but Steve doesn't know that when he goes back in time. So now Steve is really old and Tony is not.
    • [au] Tony survives and Steve comes back from returning the stones and they rebuild their relationship
  • steve + natasha
    • Awful life at Avengers compound before Ant-Man, basically lots of hurt/comfort with each other
    • [au] When Steve tells Natasha that maybe they should both move on, he asks her out on a date — it becomes a very sad attempt at moving on, but it's also a sad kind of solace. 
  • steve + bucky
    • Honestly, they barely got any time back together. Steve and Buck MUST have talked before Steve just decided to go back in the past. Possible convo where he admits he's not coming back, and asking Bucky if he wants to return back to their time with him?
  • steve + anyone
    • So ... you can so Mjolnir now?
    • Conversations with various characters when he returns the stones to their rightful place in the past
    • Someone insisting on going back in time with Steve, and they return all the stones together and this person convinces Steve to come back (or, is convinced that he really doesn't want to)
  • shuri + anyone
    • Rebuilding the world from Wakanda
    • Meeting the other avengers
    • One-uping our science bros during reconstruction :D
  • tony stark (AI) + morgan/anyone
    • I imagine this will be mostly sass.
    • And with everyone who is not Morgan, this will basically be him joking about how he's going to live forever.

[ This was definitely a lot easier than Tony expected. After years of avoiding relationships, this may all be too fast. But...it feels right. And that’s what he’s running with, even if he feels his heart speeding up. It’s in the best way possible, though. ]

You can pick whichever one you want. And this doesn’t have to happen now, it can be whenever. There... Some days, especially after therapy I may be a bit much, so you’re welcome to get some space away, I won’t get offended. [ If anything, that makes him feel guilty that he’ll be subjecting Steve to all that.

He gives his cheek a kiss. ]
But I promise, generally I’m not that bad of a housemate.

You do?

[ It probably shouldn’t surprise him, considering how supportive Steve has been about everything he has said so far, but for some reason it does. Other than Pepper, Tony has never really dealt with recuperation and doctor visits while dating someone, and his first instinct is to not have Steve deal with him because he already feels like it’s too much. Which, well, maybe he shouldn’t have invited him to stay with him considering the situation with his arm isn’t exactly resolving itself tomorrow. ]

Yeah, I mean. If you really want to. It’s an all day thing; I still have a couple of weeks to go before I’m done with the cradle thing Helen developed, and then it’s physical therapy so it might get boring.

[ He grins, his expression fond at the memories. ] Oh I remember. It’s okay, the only thing I’m fond of around here is you. And my bots. Beyond that, you can break whatever you want.

[ Especially while they’re having sex. As Steve will come to find out. ]

No, not the whole time. There’s not a whole lot left to regenerate, so I only spend an hour or so in there. It’s mainly to try and salvage tissue and nerves. If Helen is there, then we talk. Otherwise I just watch the news or something. Afterwards, whatever progress thats made is evaluated before the physical therapy starts for a few hours. Between the drive to and from the city, it just feels like a whole day.

[ It’s certainly not that he spends all day there, it just feels like it. And, the more he talks about it, the more he just wants to protect Steve from it. Like it’s an ordeal that he definitely doesn’t need to bother himself with, it’s bad enough that he’ll deal with him being sore and achy afterwards. ]

Then it’s settled, you have nothing to worry about. If you do break something we’ll just get a new one.

mmm nap 😴

[ That’s...definitely not what Tony expected Steve to say. He half expected him to agree to just meet him back home on those days, so if he seems surprised it’s for that.

He smiles, though, as if he’s amazed. Because he very much is. ]
You’re amazing, Steve Rogers.

[ He leans in to kiss him, slow and lingering for a moment. As if to silently thank him for making all this so much easier than he could have anticipated.

At what he says, he smiles softly. He didn’t know Steve went to those meetings, but he’s so damn proud of him for it. ]
Yeah? You participate in groups a lot?

[personal profile] stark 2019-06-09 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There’s something about the way Steve looks at him, and says those words, that disarm him. It makes him feel warm from the inside out, and Tony is speechless for a moment before he kisses him again, as if that’s the only way he can say how much he appreciates him. ]

I feel like I do have everything right now, right here, with you.

[ He kisses him again before listening to him talk about the group sessions, and Tony smiles. ]

That’s great. Did it help?

[personal profile] stark 2019-06-09 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ God, he thinks. Steve is so damn beautiful that it’s mesmerizing.

Tony gives Steve’s hand a gentle squeeze as he speaks, in appreciation for Steve sharing this with him. ]


In general, or in the last five years?

[ He listens attentively, keeping his hold on his hand firm. As if to help give him a grounding sensation, in case he needs it. Tony’s not a soldier, never has been. Not in the way Steve is. But he knows a bit of dealing with a heavy past and memories, and he wants to support him the same way Steve has been supporting him.

Tony’s lips mirror the same sad smile, because he misses her. He wasn’t as close to her as Steve was, but he does miss her a lot. Some days he still struggles with the survivor guilt that he was able to make it when she couldn’t. ]


I’m sorry I wasn’t there. I don’t know how much I would have been able to help [ he adds, apologetic because its the truth ] but I wish I could have done more for both of you.

[ A small smile crosses his lips when Steve says that he loves that he wanted to help. It’s definitely not a lie, and it’s not even just because they’re together. Tony exiled himself because he knew he couldn’t help anyone, no matter how much he wanted to. He wasn’t in the best terms with the team, but it didn’t mean he wouldn’t have tried to help if there had been a way. He just didn’t have answers of any kind.

When Steve brings up what he did, though, Tony’s smile grows a bit more but it’s more modest than anything else. This isn’t the first time someone has brought up what he did, but to Tony he didn’t do anything overly extraordinary. Whatever it takes, right? He had just taken it very seriously. ]


I hope she is. I couldn’t let her sacrifice go to waste. [ He stays quiet for a moment before his smile turns more sad than anything else. ] I didn’t know Bruce tried to bring her back, but I did, too. I guess we could only get one wish out of the snap, though.

[ Tony watches him, silent. When he says he tried to to bring her back by trading something, he feels his heart break for him, especially since he knows how close he and Natasha had been, and he gently kisses his cheek. ]

I’m sorry. Maybe there’s something else we can figure out. We thought the first snap would never be undone, and now that has all changed. Maybe one day we can also bring her back.

[ He can only hope, anyway. He doesn’t know how many laws of time they’d be breaking if they did that, but for one of their own, Tony would do it. She deserves to be here, alive after everything she did. ]

[personal profile] stark 2019-06-12 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
I know. I know you’re not.

[ The reassurance is quiet, gentle. If he could reach over, he’d brush his thumb gently along that furrowed brow, as if to gently reassure him it’s okay. It wouldn’t be just for him that he’d try. It’s for Natasha. And partly probably even for himself, considering the guilt he sometimes feels that he’s here but she isn’t, but it’s mainly because she was their friend. Their family. Like Steve, he does feel the finality in it all, but at the same time Tony can’t bring himself to accept that.

Then again, he has never dealt well with grief and loss.

At the kiss, Tony kisses him back, willing to stay pressed close to Steve as long as he’ll have him. Tony had questioned for years why Strange had saved him, why he was worth the time stone when others clearly weren’t. It had crushed him. The realization that he was meant to do the third snap has been his answer and for a while he had assumed that was it. He was done for. Even while in Wakanda, on his worst days, he wondered if the radiation poisoning would be too much for Shuri and Helen to fix. And then he had survived and Tony hadn’t understood why. Why did he get to live when Natasha didn’t. He still doesn’t get it but, being here and now, he can’t help but be thankful. For Steve. For this millionth chance. For getting a chance to be happy, actually happy.

When he pulls back, it’s that gratitude for this - for Steve that reflects in his eyes as it mingles with the affection he feels for him. ]


...I still can’t believe this is real. In a good way. The best way.

[personal profile] stark 2019-06-12 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ There’s a happy, content smile that settles itself on his lips as Steve rests his forehead against his. He loves this feeling. Like he belongs here, with him. Like he’s meant to do this and nothing else until the end of time. Or maybe that’s what he wants, but now he has the luxury of time on his side. ]

Yes, please. [ He closes his eyes, too. ] What is it?
stark: (pic#12253521)

[personal profile] stark 2019-06-12 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Really? [ He doesn’t sound surprised, because he knows Peggy’s work with SHIELD. He definitely sounds curious, though, because he also knows how much Steve meant to her. And, well, how much in turn she probably meant to him. ]

Was it hard, not saying something to her?
