When Trouble Came by @sineala

In which Steve and Tony discuss the events of AXE Judgment Day and also their entire relationship up to this point.

Celestial Navigation by @sabrecmc

18 year old Omega!Tony finds himself Bonded to Captain Steve Rogers. He isn't happy about it until he is.

Note: if you've never read this fic then I'm so happy to be the one to introduce it to you! sabrecmc is, to me, one of the defining stony authors. Enjoy! Don't miss the fic for Steve's POV of this story, Orbital Mechanics

Serenity Oasis by @festiveferret

Waking up with the last six months erased from his mind was bad enough, but apparently some time in that missing period, Steve went from hating Tony to marrying him… or was it all a cover for a mission?

Note: the feels are real with this one y'all

In Recovery by festiveferret

"Excuse me?" Tony mock-cleaned his ear. "I what?" Fury sighed, like this was the last conversation he was hoping to have that morning. "We found him in the ice. And you, technically, have ownership rights to Captain Rogers' body."

Unwrapped by nightwalker

Tony and Steve each have a surprise for the other. Turns out they were thinking along similar lines.

Not Another Second by nightwalker

There's only a few minutes left until the new year. Tony has a minor revelation. Of sorts.

you just need to breathe to feel my heart against yours now by @maangoes (quiddd)

Tony Stark doesn’t believe in marriage. It’s nobody’s fault. —Well, it’s Howard's fault, probably, but Tony doesn’t like to think about that for too long, finds that it dredges up all sorts of issues he’d rather keep buried under a mountain of strategically employed sarcasm, humorous self-deprecation, and the occasionally effective substance abuse.

Indecent Proposal by @gyzym, @siriaeve

On the plus side, marriage is bound to be easier than proposing.

If Through a Door by jibrailis

Tony is accused of murder on an alien planet; Steve marries him to bring him home.

The Do-Over Proposal by nightwalker

Steve wants to go on a journey, Tony doesn't think it's a good time, and Bucky needs to beat some sense into both these idiots.

Half Agony, Half Hope by @no-gorms aka Annie D (scaramouche)

Following the Battle of New York, the Avengers Initiative kicks into high gear under the leadership of Steve Rogers, i.e. Captain America. Tony didn’t mean to become part of this initiative, but it makes sense to sign on due to his experience with SHIELD and Rhodey’s War Machine suits. The upside: Tony’s tech can be used in a widespread and meaningful way to help protect people. The downside: the last time Tony saw Steve, he’d rejected Steve’s proposal of marriage and broke his heart, leading to almost ten years of the two having no contact whatsoever. Until now.

Note: okay this one is sooooorta cheating because the marriage proposal happened before this story takes place BUT it haunts the narrative so I say it counts!

Safest Hands by no-gorms

In the one universe sideways, it’s 2016 and the Avengers have fled underground in the wake of what is the worst streak of bad luck they've ever had. Steve, Tony and Natasha are on the run together, and take temporary cover at a friend’s house.

with paper rings by @ifmywishescametrue

Steve doesn't intend to do it, the first time. It’s just that it’s their first date, and he’s nervous, and all that there is to fiddle with is the straw wrapper from his drink.

Love Match by festiveferret

Tony had but one goal for the season: secure a marriage proposal from an alpha with the position and means enough to remove him from his father's house. Love was wholly irrelevant to the matter.

a rose by any other name by @meidui

“Just Steve,” he says quickly, softly, and his voice is music to Tony’s ears. “Please call me Steve.” Tony can’t help but stare as it occurs to him that he should have prepared a proper greeting. What on earth is someone so young and pretty doing in an engagement like this? - There are a lot of things about Steve that make this arrangement easier than Tony thought it would be, but then there are a lot of things about him that complicate it, too.

Since We've Been Together by @carsonian

"Marry me." On his life, he couldn't tell how the words came out. Whether they were loving or demanding or whispered. He only knew that once they left his lips, the following breath came as easy as his first one right after receiving the serum. (Steve proposes to Tony, right after a battle.)

Got So Much Honey, the Bees Envy Me by carsonian

Tony takes a hit in a battle, and comes out of his surgery a little confused. Thankfully, his husband, Steve, is there to talk him through it.

rearrange my heart (to fit your smile) by @astrhae

"You dare," Howard's chair makes an ugly noise as it scrapes against the stone floors, the chatter of the room shifting into hushed whispers and stolen glances. "I am your father and your King!" "My King is my husband," Tony tips his chin up, defiant. "And I refuse to hear you suggest that my husband has been anything other than good to me." Next to him, he feels Steve's shoulders stiffen in surprise. Howard's fist slams loud on the table. "Your husband does not even love you!" Tony jerks back, burned. He knows that. Knows that Steve did not marry him for love – does not need any reminder of the cold truth, of what he desperately yearns for and can't even hope to have – but the harshness of Howard's words was scalding, and Tony can't afford for this to go any further. ---------- Or, King Steven marries Prince Tony, Tony is pretty sure he shouldn't panic when he falls in love with his own husband, and Steve tries his very best not to cause diplomatic crises. Keyword: try

overheard your heartbeat (calling me yours) by astrhae

"Tony - " "I wish I could promise to come home this time," he feels the armor crawl back down his arm, continuing unnoticed over Steve's red gloves, then up the blue uniform as Tony fights to keep Steve's gaze firmly fixed on him.  The last eyes Tony might get to see, and he wants to be lost in them.  In the end, his entire life boils down a few simple things: "JARVIS, take care of him for me." ---------- Or, Tony overhears a phonecall where Steve proposes, a battle happens, and a paper ring settles some misunderstandings.

can my heart keep quiet by @ishipallthings

Oh, what a farce this all is! Steve had sought refuge in the Van Dynes’ gardens for the very purpose of avoiding more talk of Mr. Stark’s engagement, and avoiding Mr. Stark himself. Yet, here he stands now, prepared to make idle conversation with the man for the sake of decorum. In which there is a secluded garden, a tangled web of misunderstandings, a man with a broken heart, another man hoping to propose marriage, and an eventual happy ending.

Looking for Heaven by foxxcub

When young Lord Anthony Stark learns Steven Rogers has enlisted in the army, he thinks he's seen the last of his tiny, headstrong, haughty stable boy. But four years later, Lord Stark gets an unexpected visit from Steve, whose mother has fallen gravely ill and into financial ruin. Even more unexpected, Steve agrees to a shocking proposal: they will marry, giving Steve the necessary funds to save his mother, and Tony the much-needed reprieve from harassing would-be suitors. It is a business arrangement, nothing more. But as time goes on and circumstances arise, Tony begins to learn that keeping his heart away from his husband is easier said than done.

Secrets of a Successful Marriage by valtyr

Tony Stark lives a double life; he's secretly the supervillain known as Iron Man. But his loving husband Steve has a few secrets of his own, as Tony is about to discover.

heavy is the crown by theappleppielifestyle

Just For Now by complicationstoo (@ifmywishescametrue)

Tony and Steve have never gotten along, but when Tony lies to his mom about bringing his boyfriend to his cousin's wedding, he needs someone to play the part. Lucky for him, Steve agrees, and the two might just get a little more than they anticipated out of it.

Note: this is the sappiest thing and it's great

Wrapped Up In Clover by @festiveferret

It's been seven years since Steve and Tony split up, and Steve's sure he'll never see Tony again. He's finally managed to put their failed relationship behind him and move on, focusing on his friends and building his business. But then his best friends, Bucky and Clint, decide to get married, and their wedding week at a cabin resort in Vermont turns into a minefield of heartbreak for Steve.

Monitor by @copperbadge

Tony attends a wedding; Steve starts making a little space.

never not mine by @areiton and @meidui

I should probably stop fucking my ex husband, Tony thinks to himself, but just like he moved out of New York years and years ago after the divorce and still keeps coming back on the flimsiest excuses, he can never stay away from Steve for too long either.

note: this one's a whole series of six fics! The summary above is for the first fic but I do recommend the whole series <3

Second Comes Marriage by orbing_arrow

First comes love, second comes marriage... Here's the fluffy wedding happiness these two deserve! Seriously, so much happy.

Be Their Own Star Witness by @carsonian

Leading up to their wedding, Steve and Tony make a pact not to start any arguments with each other. This is a problem. Tony finds a unique solution, and Steve reaps the benefits. For the prompt fill: things you said when you thought I was asleep.

A Matter of Diplomacy by MaximillianDelirium

Steve travels to the neighboring kingdom for his impending nuptials to King Stark, escorted by a bothersome knight.

'Cause It's a Beautiful Night by @galwednesday

“Holy shit,” Clint’s eyes were huge and round. “Did you get Steve pregnant?” Tony choked on his coffee. “What? How--why--what? How would that even happen?” “Hey, you’re the one planning to ambush him with a shotgun wedding.” Clint moved his bowl of Lucky Charms out of the range of Tony’s coffee spray. “It’s a reasonable question.” “Steve’s not pregnant!” Tony shouted. Was he? He couldn’t be. They hadn’t been gender-swapped lately. What about that alien fertility ray? No, that had been at least seven months ago. Steve wasn’t pregnant. Probably. "I'm not ready to be a father," Tony blurted, clutching his hair with both hands. “I’m not drunk enough for this conversation.” Clint opened the liquor cabinet and examined its contents with a critical eye. “What kind of booze goes best with marshmallows?” (Tony plans a wedding. The wedding is in ten hours and he hasn’t exactly proposed yet, but he’s used to compressed project cycles. What could possibly go wrong?)
