Fic Title: Even the Light is an Illusion
Rating: T
Universe: MCU (with an infusion of 616)
Word Count: ~102,000
Warnings: Faked major character death, minor character deaths.
Summary: Death threats are an unfortunate side-effect of being Tony Stark, so he's learned to ignore them. Problem is, when someone really wants you dead, hiding your head in the sand just kinda exposes your ass.
But it's not just Tony's behind on the line. Whoever wants him dead wants him to suffer first, and they're willing to do anything to make that happen. Tony knows there's only one way out. To save Steve, the Avengers, and the general public, Tony has to die.
Of course, death isn't always the end, and Tony does what any other self-disrespecting scientist would do: he finds a way to fake his death and avenge his own murder. The trouble is, terrible decisions usually have a terrible price, and this one is no different. Tony has a chance to save the day, but the cost may be more than Tony was ever expecting to pay…
