Summary: After several years of being housed in Stark Tower as a state prisoner of Asgard, Loki is recalled to Realm Eternal. Devastated Tony is now minus a lab partner, wingman and a snark buddy for movie night. Pepper has moved to the west coast and married, SHIELD is doing some crazy shit and with the exception of occasionally seeing Bruce, Tony doesn’t have much interaction with his former team mates. He wonders how it is possible to feel so lonely in a city so full of people. However he’s and engineer and a genius… he can fix this. All he has to do is convince Queen Frigga and Odin All Father to go along with his plan.

built from scraps (ao3) - peterstank T, 138k

Summary: “Everybody needs someone. That’s what you said, right?” Pepper meets his eyes and he’s struck by the way she’s almost pleading. “We both lost. We can help each other.”

Her hand, palm up and open, stretches into the space between them.

Peter hesitates.

Then he takes it.

or: the one where tony was dusted instead of peter, so he and pepper try to figure out the whole ‘family’ thing together.

(oh, and it turns out that the man who died in peter’s arms on an alien planet is his biological father. who knew, right?)

Calm down Peter, its only the AVENGERS (ao3) - Idek_Anymore T, 98k

Summary: May Parker gets shot on her midnight trip to the local corner store for ice cream. Peter now had no living relatives left, and now he truly knew that nothing is worth living for. But then Tony Stark takes him in, with no hesitation of adopting him on the spot.

Ever since then, things go smoothly. Tony and Peter get closer than ever, and Peter even starts to call him dad (but only around the people he is close to, like Pepper and Rhodey, because no one can know that Peter is adopted by Tony). Actually, its perfect; Peter finally has a family and life. School ends as well, and summer finally arrives after a long wait.

Then the Avengers are pardoned, and Tony decides to house them in the tower with himself and Peter; basically opening his private life to a bunch of traitors. But it’s fine, he wants them back; he wants his old family back so much. Things only go haywire after that.

Catching Lightning in a Bottle (ao3) - sabrecmc steve/tony M, 120k

Summary: College student Tony meets janitor Steve at MIT and they fall blissfully in love, until Howard happens and things fall apart. One divorce paperwork snafu courtesy of the ever-helpful Jarvis, and ten years later, Tony has to get re-divorced from Steve.

This does not go as he imagines.

Or, the Sweet Home Alabama AU that no one–well, okay, a few of you–asked for.

Dissonance (ao3) - stuckybarnes peter/wade M, 121k

Summary: Wherein Deadpool is reluctantly hired to protect Peter Parker from an organization out to hunt him, with varying success on both ends and quite a lot of feelings, revelations, and identity crises.

Don’t Freak Out (ao3) - Sarah_Sandwich harley/peter T, 136k

Summary: Getting kidnapped isn’t usually the best way to start your summer (especially your last summer before college) but honestly? It kinda worked out.

Don’t Look Down (ao3) - NamelesslyNightlock loki/tony M, 256k

Summary: When forced to decide between the lives of Tony Stark and Iron Man, Steve Rogers chose wrong.

Tony is left to deal with the consequences, but it’s not like he’s helpless, and he certainly isn’t alone.

Endgame (ao3) - YunaYamiMouto tony/stephen T, 196k

ever in your favor (ao3) - iron_spider T, 153k

Summary: Peter startles awake when someone shakes him.

“Sorry, honey,” May says. Peter blinks a couple times and she comes into focus, her hair pulled back from her face. She’s trying not to look a certain way, but he can see it in her eyes anyway. She clears her throat, keeps talking. “But it’s…” She glances away, wets her lips. “You gotta get ready.”

He remembers what day it is, and his heart beats like a drum at someone’s execution. But he tries to put on a mask, make it all seem normal. It’s everything but, despite the fact that he’s been dealing with reaping day since he was born, between himself, Ben and May. That fear that one of them could be taken away. Sent to surefire slaughter. But now Ben is gone, taken despite never having his name drawn from a bowl, and May’s finally safe. Now Peter’s name is in there alone. The last Parker sitting on the chopping block. He doesn’t know how to be. He doesn’t know what normal is, when the Hunger Games are looming on the horizon.

Frog in a Blender (ao3) - feldman, Thassalia bruce/natasha E, 70k

Summary: When she notices Banner’s attention she doesn’t discourage it, because he lives a similar lie. Pretend this is safe, pretend he’s containable, pretend that unchecked aggression doesn’t tend toward slaughter. She can give him that much, as easily as letting him turn her foot over gently in his warm hands and build a hypothesis that she’d rather he left alone.

If You Had This Time Again (ao3) - dls loki/tony T, 268k

Summary: Tony Stark adopts Peter after his aunt is killed in an accident. Only, he doesn’t tell any of the Avengers about the adoption. Two years later, and the team is starting to figure it out. Or so they think. More and more secrets are revealed as they dig deeper, and the Avengers are finding it just a bit more difficult to trust one another. New villains are on the rise, pushing the team ever closer to their limits.

It isn’t long after the team starts to fall apart that Peter goes missing.

One-Man Army (ao3) - Captain_Panda steve/tony M, 632k

Summary: Takes place immediately after the Chitauri attack in Avengers 1.

Red Room Renovations (ao3) - CelticKitten25 yelena/kate, wanda/natasha, clint/laura, kate/agatha E, 772k

Determined to have a better experience, she decides to have a sex room built in her penthouse. What happens when she meets the general contractor/sister of the owner of Red Room Renovations?

Spring Break Fever (ao3) - chrono96 mj/peter M, 126k

Summary: Right before their first spring break at NYU, MJ comes over to Ned and Peter’s apartment for a favor: she needs someone to spend a week with her and her family in Hawaii, and come as her date to her aunt’s wedding so her family will finally stop tormenting her about being single. There’s one catch, though: Peter and MJ can’t stand each other, and entangling them in a fake relationship will definitely ensure chaos…and maybe something else.

The First Avenger (ao3) - shestepsintotheriver steve/bucky M, 73k

Summary: “Steve Rogers neither begins nor ends with Captain America. Before all that, before the fame and the horror and the loss, Steve is just another hungry kid from Brooklyn. Braver than most—or more bull-headed, depending on who you ask—but pretty average. Discounting the bad heart, the bad lungs, the bad temper, or at least that’s what Bucky always says when Steve does something really stupid, but he’ll always add ‘the best guy I ever known’ at the end of the list.”

The story of the First Avenger with almost all the bits from the movie, then several additions to canon.

To Change Forever (Lover) (ao3) - moonlight_roses tony/stephen E, 755k
