Title: ten years and a thousand tears
Writer: areiton
Artists: starksnack and tsumi_art
Universe: AU of more than 3 canons, MCU
Rating: Mature (fic), Gen (art)
Work Warnings: Past Character Death
Fic Wordcount: 38775 words
Fic Summary:

It’s been ten years since Tony Stark watched the man he loved leave him.

Ten years can be a lifetime, and he’s happy now--he has a business he built with his best friend, a kid he loves more than life itself, a life he fought for. If he still misses Steve--well. He’s used to that.

It’s been ten years since Steve Rogers left the life he wanted.

Ten years that have been good to him--he’s built a business and a reputation, he’s got everything he left to achieve--he just didn’t realize it would take so long. He didn’t realize that while he was busy building a life, Tony would be busy living. Without him.

It’s been ten years and a thousand tears and a lifetime of regret--but pulled together by a friend’s last wish, they might just have a second chance for the life they chose, once, when they were young and stupidly in love.

Title: An Error in the System
Writer: Winterstar
Artist: jellybeanforest
Universe: MCU
Rating: Mature (fic), Gen (art)
Work Warnings: Graphic Depictions of Violence
Fic Wordcount: 45,224 words
Fic Summary:

When the Avengers faced Ultron, they believed that Vision completed his task to lock Ultron out of the internet. After Sokovia, no one thinks that Ultron survived. Everyone is wrong. Ultron’s code persists, hidden in the deepest trenches of the internet. Soon, it rises to cause chaos around the world and the only way to stop a catastrophe is to meet Ultron face to face. But Ultron is computer code – elusive, persistent, and viral. The only way to confront him is to meet the AI on equal footing within the bowels of the internet itself. Steve and Tony enter the virtual world of Ultron’s mind, passing through the rims to get to the center Hub of the AI’s existence. Along the way they face challenges and nightmares, hardships and truths. Truths that hurt and haunt them. Now they have to deal with a genocidal killer AI, and a truth that could destroy them. Steve blames himself for everything that went wrong with his relationship with Tony, but that doesn't mean he isn't still hoping and pining for someone who will never love him in return.

Rating: Mature (fic), Teen (art), Gen (art)
Work Warnings: canon-typical violence, eventual explicit sexual content, alcohol/drug use, references to alcoholism, major character death (albeit temporary), consent issues (spoilers: the characters cannot speak to each other or see each other so consent is not explicit)
Fic Wordcount: 39781 words
Fic Summary:

Tony and Steve have finally made up after Civil War. They’re friends again. It’s everything Steve wanted. It’s a pity, then, that Steve has to go and ruin everything by dying in Tony’s arms. It’s not a bad place to die. It’s not even the first time.

When Steve wakes up as a ghost—Tony’s personal haunting—he learns all sorts of things he’s sure Tony never wanted him to know. Chief among them: Tony’s been in love with Steve for a long time, and Steve’s apparently the last to know.

Steve’s been dead before, and it didn’t take. He’s determined to make sure that he comes back from this one. But first he has to convince Tony that he hasn’t gone crazy from grief, and that Steve is here to stay.

Fic Summary:

Suspended Animation: The temporary cessation of most vital functions without death.

Warnings: references to torture, canon typical violence.
Author's Notes: a fill for h/c bingo, 'gags'.
Summary: Tony gets kidnapped.

The man doesn’t say a word, just looks at Tony, and Tony tries not to blink under the scrutiny. There’s a coldness to it, and Tony’s suddenly struck with the realisation that he’s not been kidnapped for any reason other than this man wants to cause pain and Tony was the nearest person available.

And that, somehow, is more terrifying than anything else Tony can imagine.

Summary: “I—” Steve swallows, taking in the sight of Tony, blood instantly going to his cock as he looks him up and down. “You look—wow.”

Tony’s got on a damn Princess Leia outfit, gold curling around his chest and hips, with red fabric skimming over his crotch, and Steve’s brain feels like it’s shut down.

Summary: Steve is pretty sure if he holds a baby he's going break them, and Tony being good with kids is making him Feel Things.

People used to hand babies to him all the time on the tours, just shove them unthinkingly into his hands like they didn’t realise he could crush them. It was terrifying, but he couldn’t say anything. The only time he had, the stage manager had looked at Steve like he’d admitted to wanting to eat babies and told him to suck it up and get on with it.

Author's Notes: fill for Twink Tony Bingo on discord, square: lingerie
Summary:

Steve hadn’t exactly expected to stumble across photos. Polaroids, to be exact, of Tony when he was younger.

And that would be fine, even Tony has old photos, they’ve gone through the photo albums he’s kept before, but these—these are Tony in lingerie, and Steve can’t stop staring.

They’re a little blurry, like whoever was taking them had a hard time staying steady, but he can see the black stockings all the way up Tony’s legs, the little gold clips attaching them to the garter belt, and—and the underwear. The lacy black underwear that’s barely covering anything of Tony.

Author's Notes: fill for Twink Tony Bingo, square: whump. also a fill for my h/c bingo card, square: fighting. this is set in an universe where Steve was defrosted after Tony's parents died, but before Tony took over SI.
Summary:

Tony burrows deeper in his blankets, squeezing his eyes shut and trying to forget the last year. Taking control of Stark Industries was one thing, even if it had been a shock to Obie and the rest of the board when Tony came of age and started dispensing of all his dad’s old cronies, but SI’s exploration team actually finding Steve? Tony deciding Steve should come live with him? Tony has regrets.

Well.

He has regrets this morning.

Before last night, the most Tony regretted in relation to Steve was not jumping him the moment it became clear all his faculties were intact and that Tony hadn’t defrosted a brain dead Captain America.

Author's Notes: another fill for Twink Tony bingo, square de-aged.
Summary:

“Can you—” Steve pauses before he narrows his eyes. “Take your pants off.”

Tony’s skin flushes, in a way that Steve doesn’t think he’s ever seen before, and he wonders if that’s something Tony trained himself out of as he got older. It’s goddamn delicious, and Steve really just wants to tackle him to the bed and spend hours discovering all the ways he can make Tony blush.

“You’re getting off on this,” Tony says, his hands resting on the waistband of his sweatpants as he stands in front of Steve.

“Am I not meant to?” Steve asks, and Tony smiles, big and unselfconscious, and Steve can’t help but return it. “I want you.”

“The thing is,” Tony says, once he’s taken another sip of wine. “I don’t know if I can be friends with you.”

“Oh,” Steve says, this broken sound that Tony doesn’t think he’s ever heard come out of Steve’s mouth before. “I can—I’ll—”

“Because,” Tony interrupts in a rush before Steve can finish. “I’d want more from you. I’d want you. All of you. And I know you’re not interested, I get that, but—”

“Why would you think that I’m not interested?”

Fic Summary:

Ste-Virn isn't exactly sure why the Jedi Council has summoned him back to Coruscant, when he was finally making progress on identifying the head of the trafficking ring he's spent months tracking down.

Finding out that he's supposed to work with another Jedi isn't great - he knows he's new, knows he could use the help, he just wanted to take these beings down himself - but finding out that it's prodigy Anotoni Saark? The same Anotoni Saark who had to share an interim Jedi master while they were both grieving in their own ways?

This was going to be harder than he thought.

Fic Summary:

That’s when Tony saw it, dripping out of his hand, red, bright red.

Blood? That… No. It wasn’t blood and those were the good news. The bad news was that he didn’t know what the hell was going on.

He brought his hand closer to his face. A sliver of red light went out of his pinkie finger, out of his balcony and into the night.

---

Across the city, the Nomad looked at his hand and saw a shiny and incorporeal string that led him to... something. Without a doubt, he jumped to the roof and followed it.

Warnings: creepy flirting with non-con threats (not int he main pairing)

Fic Summary:

A new villain is on the scene and he uses stolen tech! There’s the suspicions there’s a huge organization behind this that nobody knew even existed. Commander Rogers wants to know if these suspicions are true and how to stop whoever is behind it. Of course he asks Tony for help. Of course, Tony is happy to help when Steve suggests a trip to Madripoor.

Tony agrees to take Steve with him to another tech convention there, disguised as his bodyguard and lure out the tech-loving villain with a new piece of tech put on display. He didn't expect the bad guy to be drawn to Tony himself rather than his tech.

Artist: ha-kko | kakushimiko
Universe: MCU
Rating (both fic and art): Explicit (fic); Mature (kakushimiko's art); Teen (ha-kko's art).
Word Count: 233837
Warnings: Temporary Character Deaths, Minor Character Death, Mildly Dubious Consent, Body Horror, Canon-Typical Worms, Self-Sacrifice, Violence, Blood and Gore, Sexual Content.
Notes: This fic is a post-Endgame fix-it arena fic based on Fantastic Four #600, using the mechanic (worms!) that brought Johnny Storm back to life. I used choose not to warn for this fic because major character death doesn't really apply (as the major deaths are impermanent.)

Fic Summary:
Years after Tony Stark saved the universe, the Avengers realize there’s a major problem: his body has gone missing. And he isn’t the only one. Fallen heroes all over the galaxy have had their graves pillaged.

An old foe is stealing the bodies of fallen warriors, but for what nefarious reason? There’s only one solution. To find out why it’s happening, Steve’s gotta die.

He probably shouldn’t be so eager to do that.

Rating (both fic and art): mature
Word Count: 25,473
Warnings: alcohol use
Notes: AHHH here goes!!! my first big bang!!!

thank you to athletiger for cheer reading, rina /captainstevns who helped me figure out what I was doing and listened to me yell and freak out, and pearl for helping me work through ideas. and most of all, A HUGE THANK YOU to duck for doing such a great job at beta reading (and cheering me on!) ❤️

it was also such a pleasure to work with pineapplebreads, who i am such a fan of, and talesofsuspense, whose work i discovered because of this big bang! :)

Fic Summary: Fresh from being fished out of the Potomac, Steve struggles with the revelation (and loss) of Bucky, and deals with his feelings in the only way he knows how: he doesn't. Most days, he tells himself it’ll all be okay, because it has to be.

After moving in with Tony and getting Tony to help him look for Bucky, the cracks in Steve’s veneer begin to show. He throws himself into fights, drinks too much of Thor’s Asgardian mead, wakes up and wishes he never woke up.

Steve doesn’t mean to notice the way Tony’s thigh presses against his when they watch movies together, doesn’t mean to open up to Tony about how he really feels about being Captain America and finding out his best friend is kind of not really dead, doesn’t mean to kiss him, but he does, anyway.
