For A Heartbeat, Tony Mentally Prepares To Craft A Scathing Critique Of Whatever Idiot Designed This

For a heartbeat, Tony mentally prepares to craft a scathing critique of whatever idiot designed this thing. Then, with a hiss, the box obliges, its lid splitting apart. Some fog rolls out.

"Oh, you dramatic bitch, I love it," he clicks his tongue.

Inside the box, right on top, there's a note scrawled in sharp, chaotic, arrogant loops and lines. No signature, but then, Tony’s ego never did require one.

"Everyone loves a man in a uniform," the note reads, and Tony can't help the snort.

"Cute. Real cute," he mutters, moving the note aside.

Five times Tony time-travels back to the past and one time Bucky doesn't. Rating: Explicit @winterironevents

AO3 Works Masterlist

Behold, the grand space where a master list could have been, but let's be real – that's more effort than I'm willing to invest. So, just click this link or something (or don't, I'm not your boss). Don't worry, it only leads to AO3. And, for the love of all things TS, do us both a favor and READ THE TAGS.

New York might be a sprawling concrete jungle, but the term "six degrees of separation" is less a theory and more a fucking day-to-day reality, especially if you wear spandex for a living. To be fair, in a city of eight million stories, Peter should hardly be surprised that he eventually collides with a one-armed super-soldier and whatever-the-hell-category Deadpool falls into. Should be hardly surprised, but almost is, even though it was a long time coming. Village. This city is a fucking village and, seriously, there should be a support group for this—'Anonymous Super-People of NY', or something equally cliché.

A completely filthy, untrue, occasionally ridiculous, and canon-compliant story about how Peter Parker falls in love, Bucky Barnes meets Cable, and Deadpool finally gets a llama.

Now, I am incredibly biased and very much guilty of harassing @madeforstarker into making this moodboard for me for my fic, but I think it's perfect. I've got almost no words and, if I do, they are mostly squealing noises and incoherent rambles. I love it nearly as much as Peter loves Tony. Feeeeeels.

...Regardless, Peter has a soft spot for Tony Stark, who is the greatest being ever lived, saved half the universe, and Peter by extension, more than once, and is waiting here, in Queens, by Peter’s door. And Peter might be sad and hopeless and should probably tattoo nevergonnahappen over his heart, or better on his ass, as a conversation starter, since it’s all the action he's been and will continue getting from older guys he meets on Grindr about once a quarter. But he isn't impolite or ungrateful for everything Tony’s done or at least tried and offered to do for him after May died, when Peter fucked it up so very bad, with Tony having to unfuck it. So Peter nudges him aside—drunk or not—and jiggles the key in the stiff lock with a weak "Hey," really wishing for a stiff drink himself if only it worked on him.

[or] Tony's been dodging Peter for months, only to crash his photography exhibition without a warning and ruin everything. Because—reasons.

Yup, this is Winterspider. Someone, dear God, please organize a winterspider event, so I don't have to.

Drop whatever you are doing and go read this. It kills right in the feels.

Peter Parker/Tony Stark

Stripper!Peter AU

“Tony Stark is coming to the VIP tonight and Bucky picked me to go,” Peter tells MJ as soon as he finds her, just starting to get ready. He has to breathe through his nose and not make any sudden movements or else he’s going to freak the fuck out. And he can’t freak out. He agreed and Bucky asked him multiple times if he’s sure and Peter said yes, yes, of course he’s sure. Shake ass for Tony Stark? No biggie. Sign him up.

It is a biggie.

It is a huge, giant biggie.
