I have an idea, it's sort of complicated, but I am going to paste a copy here or I am in danger of doing nothing with it. I would truly like to see someone beside me write some fic from it. Fair warning the main idea is for Tony, but this is easy to use as a base for Tony/Steve.

Tony Stark uses the Infinity Glove (Gauntlet), in half of the universes he has supernatural alternates to draw on who have their own powers and are capable of anchoring him/them for the impossible, likewise his team, and all the superheroes who managed to get a hand on him in time to help. So that worked. In the Other half of the Universes he didn’t have many supernatural alternates, more mechanical brilliance, and a few Sorcerer Supremes, but the Paradox exists, how did even a few dozen, or a lone dozen superheroes allow Tony Stark to use the Infinity Gauntlet? Answer: Mistress Death, the Fates, the Norns, the Universe itself treasures life, and basic universal rules….all wanted him to succeed…. so…. This is how: Tony, and accompanying heroes were flung into the Supernatural Universes, not exactly copies, because in each new universe they are crafted, forged, born to be there, yet they didn’t exist before the Tony Starks’ with the Gauntlet needed them. They are the perfect anchors however, each having their own powers, and amazing strength of will. Each are different, brilliant, amazing, each has Tony Stark’s memories from a (the) Gauntlet Universe but, each is a unique individual unto themselves, suited to their new place in the universe, and they have some or all of the members of MCU accompanying them.

This is their stories:

Universe 1: Anita Blake universe
Universe 2: Team Wolf universe
Universe 3: Supernatural
Universe 4: The Sentinel
Universe 5: Pern/Anne McCaffrey, heroes are the dragons, and the riders
Universe 6: Interview Vampire, Lestat
Universe 7: Jurassic Park, Macx Threshold Shift version
Universe 8: Buffy/Angel
Universe 9: Heralds Valdemar, Mercedes Lackey
Universe 10: War God’s Own, David Weber
Universe 11: The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien
Universe 12: Flamethrower’s Star Wars
Universe 13: Star Wars
Universe 14: Robert Jordan Wheel of Time verse
Universe 15: DC Universe, Green Lanterns, Kryptonians, Amazons etc.
Universe 16: Stargate Universe, sufficient tech like magic (ascended beings),
Universe 17: The Belgariad, David Eddings
Universe 18: Christine Feehan, Dark series
Universe 19: Dagger Brotherhood, J.R. Ward
Universe 20: Transformer’s verse (the Allspark might have something to say about this)
Universe 21: Star Trek (Q also might object: or at least be nosy)
