Apartment 5A has been recced a few times, but I'm throwing my recommendation on top of it for all the same reasons. :)
Title: 99 problems (and the dice ain't one) Author: kellifer_fic Summary: Tony's life is almost perfect. He lives in a converted warehouse full of friends (and one frenemy), has a job that leaves him plenty of time to think about other things and a regular Friday night campaign. If his best friend, Steve Rogers, hadn't moved away to New York and left him behind, then perfection would've been achieved.
Tony can roll with the punches though and he's almost all the way over that little bump in the road (shut up Bruce, he totally is) when Steve moves back, looking taller and broader and more confident than ever and Tony's left with a converted warehouse full of friends (and one frenemy), a job that leaves him plenty of time to think about other things, a regular Friday night campaign and the uncomfortable realization that maybe he's in love with his best friend and has been since he was sixteen.
Why I'm recommending it: I just love how adorably sweet and fluffy this story is. It's great if you're in the mood for something to make you smile. And I just love how nerdy all the characters are. :3 Link:http://archiveofourown.org/works/549884 (http://archiveofourown.org/works/549884)
Title: When Darkness Sleeps Beside You Author: rufflefeather Summary: Steve meets Tony Stark at a party while he's there escorting another woman. He's not opposed to making a quick buck but things don't go as planned. Why I'm recommending it: SUCH GREAT SMUT. Tony still has the arc reactor but there's no Iron Man and No Captain America.

Title: The Billionaire Hooker's Deceived Artist Author: tsukinofaerii Summary: During Tony's senior year at MIT, his partying habit finally hit the edge of his parents' patience. When Howard and Maria cut him off from his usual sources of money, he decides to turn to less conventional ones. Why I'm recommending this: Because I honestly cannot believe no one else here has already done so? Definitely one of my all-time favorite fics much less one of my favorite non-powered AUs! It's got smut and skinny!Steve, you guys. What more could you ask for? Link:http://archiveofourown.org/works/314634/chapters/504592 (http://archiveofourown.org/works/314634/chapters/504592)
And these are technically HS/College AUs but they're also non-powered... so I'm just going to list these because I loved them as well:
If At First (http://archiveofourown.org/works/274680) and, alternatively: Try, Try Again ()
