Peter Parker idolising Iron Man before Civil War (Manip AU)

From watching Tony’s first press conference with awe to worrying about his idol during the Battle of New York, Peter has always loved Iron Man.

THIS IS MY FAVE THING UGH

bc u know they’d both be so nervous about it??? they’d want to know each others’ boundaries and what they’re allowed or not allowed to do but neither of them would want to actually ASK so they’d do this awkward dance of ‘ok fuck it i’ll just kiss him goodbye yep im doing this OH GOD I DID IT IS HE OK WITH IT DID I JUST RUIN EVERYTHING’ as the other one sits there quietly trying to figure out a casual way to ask for another kiss

like?? sex-wise, tony would constantly be going ‘jfc im his first actual relationship. what the everloving fuck. how do i handle this. i am not prepared for this. how do i get him not to break up with me jfc why is he even dating me what if he thinks i expect sex a lot of people think that about me HOW DO I LET HIM KNOW I DONT EXPECT HIM TO HAVE SEX WITH ME WHILE ALSO LETTING HIM KNOW I WOULD TOTALLY BE DOWN FOR IT ‘

and steve will be going ‘how do people even do relationship things. is he expecting sex??? if i don’t have sex with him will he be disappointed?? will he think im a prude if i dont try to have sex with him. how do i tell him i actually kind of really really want to have sex with him?? how do i even ask for sex pepper help me no wait don’t help me that would be weird you’ve also dated him SAM HELP ME stop laughing sam this is serious’

dating-wise, tony has dated like one other person and he is like 44 and steve is in his late twenties and has dated no-one and kissed maybe 2 people they would both be so bad at this omg.

both of them trying to figure out if its ok to hold each other’s hand. figuring out if what they’re doing it ‘clingy’ and how are they even supposed to act around each other now, they both kind of just want to stare lovingly at each other and kiss them a lot and make each other smile (and have orgasms)

everything would make them nervous jfc

‘would he think i’m weird if i buy him flowers??? has steve ever gotten flowers fuck im gonna call bucky and ask’

‘is it ok if i went up and kissed him rn. he’s working tho. he’s busy. he’d think i was annoying. he’s so cute tho i love him so much. goddamnit i want to kiss his stupid cheek.’

I get it. It’s a tough world out there for Steve stans after Endgame. I’m certain that most of the blogs I listed don’t hate Steve but a lot of them might have more Tony-centric posts. I’m honestly not 100% on who might or might not post any Steve negativity. I’m no authority on this, so I’m just going to list a couple of Steve-positive blogs (as far as I know):
