Fic Summary: When World War II finally catches up to the United States, Tony has to fight the military, his friends, and his own feelings in order to keep a promise he made to himself: Take care of Steve.
Author's Notes: I owe more thanks than I can possibly express to Inoshi for her wonderful beta job, especially at short notice. She kept me very much on the right path for characterization and story flow. This story is a direct (noir-side) sequel to Indelible and I've been assured that it makes much more sense if you read that story first.

I was lucky enough to have two wonderful artists do artwork for this story:
Link to Art: angel_inoshi’s artwork is here, and taiyou_to_tsuki’s artwork is here. Please go and tell them how amazing they are.
Link to Fic: AO3

There's also a fanmix for the story, over this way.

(Mods, may I please have a tag for Taiyou? There doesn't seem to be one. :( Thanks!) Thank you. :)
