tony gaining a reputation for sleeping on the floor in his lab after afghanistan. nobody questions his joke about overworking. Tony does not tell them he slept on the floor in the cave, and now he can’t sleep on a bed.

When steve learns of the habit, he clocks it immediately. Beds too soft.

He knows that one.

[ramen8008]

So I cry now?

"what I know doesn't matter anymore. It won't make a difference. It never makes....made a difference"

fic where Tony keeps refusing to help with the time travel thing. So they go ahead with it without him. The night before they’re going to try it, Steve shows up at Tony’s house. Not to convince him. Just to discuss it.

Some diologue snippets

“Will you grieve me? If it all goes wrong, I mean.” / “I have already grieved you, Rogers.”

“I can’t help but feel like i’m walking into the unknown, here.” / “I’ve done that before. In New York, the wormhole. The unknown isn’t the scary part. It’s the known that matters.” / “You know something. You- you solved it, didn’t you?” / “What I know doesn’t matter anymore. It won’t make a difference. It never makes… made a difference.”

“I was angry at you… for so long.” / “You deserved your anger.” / “…it was nice. A comfort, really… to know how to feel, for once.”

“I’m probably going to die tomorrow.” / “How many times have you said that? It sounds practiced. Rehearsed.” / “…sometimes I feel like i never did leave that stage. Spitting out lines i believe in, but they don’t bite me anymore. I’m making a difference… but… it doesn’t feel like it anymore. It just feels like i’m going in circles. I keep… punching Hitler. I keep probably being about to die.” / “… Steve, i can’t even tell you how good it feels to finally step off that stage.”

“You really aren’t going to help us, this time, are you?” / “…Cap, I didn’t think this was about persuading-“ / “It’s not. It’s not. I’m just… it seemed like you always would. You were always an extended hand, for the team. It seemed like you were always going to try to help.” / “…holding out your hand for that long, and nobody taking it… it a bit demotivating.” / “We took it. Didn’t we? We- you helped with missions, with- with funding-“ / “You took the hand of the suit. Or of my money. Or of my brain. You took- you took the reactor. That’s the hand you took. Not… not my hand. Not my humanity. Not… my warnings, my fear. I held out my hand for so long, and you all found ways to cover it, make it easier to hold. It only made it harder for me to keep holding out.” / “…So now…” / “Now, the arc reactor is in your hand. And I am not in the room.”

You can't leave like that.

ELABORATE.

Give me an essay??!?!

thinking about how in endgame when the avengers pull up to tony’s cabin, he’s holding Morgan… and also an iron man helmet.

I wonder what the Avengers made of that.

[ramen8008]

Yess of course <3

Lemme know if you get to writing it I would love to read it <33

The Avengers and whether Tony will allow them to Babysit Peter.

A List

Rhodey:

Yes only one other than Pepper I will fully trust to make sure Peter doesn't die.

Yes, Rhodey is cool other than the fact he always tries to make sure I don't do anything dangerous or fun. So it gets boring

Thor:

No. Point break you're great but I can't trust you and Peter not to cause absolute HAVOC.

YES YES! Lord Thor is the best. We tested how much lightning I could handle last time and we flew!! And he let me use his hammer (idk why he looked surprised I think he forgot about my super strength)

Loki:

He shouldn't even be on the list- but Mr. Stark. No, he comes near you and you or the world explodes.

Well I think Mr. Loki is cool and fun! So yes

NOT HAPPENING!

Natasha:

Yes.

She's scary but yes.

Bucky:

Oddly enough? I actually think he'll make sure Peter doesn't die. So yeah

OMG ROBOT ARM! AND he likes the Hobbit! We can talk all day!! YESS

Steve:

Again surprisingly no. Maybe? Mainly for his sanity. He could not keep up with Peter.

Okay rude! Cap is great and all but I am scarred for life from his PSA's. I can't do that again. I have severe PTSD from that.

Clint:

I UNDERSTAND in hindsight he is the only one who has experience with kids. I GET that. But no. Not the Clint I know. I still think his family is just a bunch of spies.

Hawkeye is SO much fun! He was really cool and he actually understood the references I was making and he taught me how to shoot a bow. AND the best way to prank each Avenger! YES

Banner:

Yes. Absolutely. Peter would have fun. Banner would have fun. He would make sure Peter can do all his science stuff in the lab too without exploding his homework

THAT WAS ONE TIME! And omg YES The Dr. Banner?! I would love that! I have so much I want to talk about!!

Wanda:

What? She's just a kid. SHE needs babysitting too.

Omg Yes! It'll be like we're hanging out! She's so cool!

Vision:

You would ASSUME that Vision would be a no brainer but due to his internet knowledge he understands whatever that slang nonsense that Peter speaks in and Vision speaks back the same. I'll come back to them having a conversation that doesn't make any sense!

Cap. You're just outdated. Unlike you we are both skibidi rizzlers. Don't be salty that you can understand the fam. We're slay and it's high-key sus you don't get our energy.

NONE of that was even remotely coherent. You don't talk like that normally. Why do you do this to me??

Strange:

I would. I really would even if it was just to annoy him but he would not let me. I called him once to look after Peter for me and the moment he heard the name "Peter" he hung up.

He's mean sometimes :(. BUT he is also magic which is really cool and annoying him is fun and I know he cares for me. Mentioning that to him is also fun. So yes

The cover art is absolutely GORGEOUS. Like OH MY GOD.

I could NOT have imagined this beauty.

Even with Jay's amazing portrayal of this

just thought about The Thing I Like and got so emotional i acted this gif out in real life with the passion of a broadway actor

[ramen8008]

Did they consent?? 🤨

Oh sure so it's okay for Jesus to raise people back from the dead, but when I, Victor Frankenstein,

[ramen8008]

Just realized I don’t need therapy. I just need to hear the phrase, 'Tony, you were right,' on repeat.

[ramen8008]

The notes are broken. This is what tumblr is all about apparently.

[ramen8008]

Thanos was right when he said that Tony was cursed with knowledge

Imagine knowing the outcome, imagine knowing exactly what needs to be done, what's going to happen. How everything will end up destroyed in the end.

Imagine trying to prevent it and then being fought on it every step of the way by those who were supposed to trust you.

Imagine wanting to step back, wanting to believe you were wrong yet knowing that exact belief would take everyone back to the destruction that might just be inevitable.

Imagine always being looked at as "selfish", "arrogant", "a con" . Each time you try to do something selfless. Each time you try to save everyone else by putting your own self on the line.

Wouldn't that destroy you? Wouldn't you want to just stop helping? Stop trying?

Just let the outcome happen exactly as you knew it would.

Watch the world burn because it never let you be the guide when you knew the truth but now expects you to be the shield.

But Tony wouldn't. He would never because he would always blame himself. He second guessed every choice he makes. His choice to be happy would be one of them.

He could lay back and do nothing. But when the destruction inevitably comes. He would only blame himself.

He could warn everyone and step back but he would blame his self if something happened.

He could do something to fix the problem, help everyone. But he would still blame himself for the drift it would cause between his friends.

What a sinking feeling that must have been, to see the avengers pull up to the Starks cabin.

To know he’s being roped on as a consult again. (they can’t send Coulson anymore. He’s too dead. There are so many people dead.

Tony had just came to accept this. had JUST started being okay with this. And the avengers seemed to have just started considering not accepting it.)

What horror it is to always be right about the awful things you predict, and only ever be believed after they’ve happened. Once your proposed solutions are not useless. And now you’re seen as the answers guy. Because your last plan would have worked!

but it’s too late. And you’re coping with that. and they’re not.

God. What horror, to watch someone pull up to your house and know that they’re looking for the answers guy because they finally noticed you’re usually right.

Only for them not to believe you, when you give them your answer (he will turn into a baby). And not believe you, when you predict what will happen next (Die trying.).

i litterally cannot imagine that dread.

[ramen8008]

thinking about how the body language of avengers in fight of flight outside combat would change. Specifically Tony (big surprise)

if he gets spooked, and he’s not wearing the suit, does he still stiffen with his arms at his sides as if to fly away? Does he ever stretch out his arm, palm facing a spooky sound in the dark, forgetting he’s just…flesh? How many of his instinct become that of the suit? Was the suit made with some startle responses in mind? If not, did any suits get scrapped because Tony tried to react in some way and the suit did not move in that way, and it made the panic worse?

where does the line between suit and man lie? Does the man start acting like the suit, because that’s what he associates with being in danger? Does the suit mold itself to fit the man, because in the end, the man is the true weapon and not the suit? The line is somewhere between the two, with elements of both, but where? What was the thought process? Was there one? did it ever come up?

When something scares Tony Stark, does he become Iron Man? When something scares Iron Man, does it become Tony Stark?

Or are they one?

Was the claim in the senate hearing true, they are one and the same? Or the one to Harley, that Tony is Iron man “sometimes”?

down with found family. UP with FOUND DIVORCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ramen8008]

how batshit is it that tony didn’t get the surgery for his arc reactor done until after IM3.

That’s…years? Years. Tony got stabbed and left the knife in for years. Long enough that it became a known accessory. Long enough for the wound to heal AROND the knife. he got stabbed and proceeded to find new uses for this fun new addition to his body. And it was YEARS before he took the knife out.

Like, that’s YEARS. of your body actively dying? Of your body fighting like hell to make it through the hours? Relying entirely on machine that now might as well be your skin?

And then it’s over. All in one day it’s gone and just a tiny scar. I mean god a TINY scar in the grand scene of things. when that was his LIFELINE. he spent YEARS growing attached to the injury that almost killed him. Too afraid to let it go. And the FINALLY he agrees to do the procedure and suddenly the thing people affectionately call your heart is… unnecessary?

That’s wild right? That he felt the literal weight of all that shit that happened to him… for years. That cave ripped a hole in him and he REFUSED the stitches. Decorated it. Turned the wound into a logo.

and it caught on! and nobody in canon really clocked how fucked that was!

[ramen8008]

Cap's birthday isn't actually the 4th of July (it's 28 Sep)

But it's too late to say anything so he's just going about every year being wished happy birthday on the 4th of July and he is in too deep and Bucky is kinda confused as to why even the Avengers don't know.

Steve sees Bucky's confused face and before Bucky can say anything Steve desperately gets Bucky out of the room.

But you see what the others don't know? There's someone else who knows Cap's actual birthday.

TONY FREAKING STARK. Son of HOWARD STARK

But Tony isn't going to tell the others. Nope. He's going to mess with Cap every time the rest celebrate his birthday.

"Sorry my gift isn't here yet Cap. It'll take a few months. But it should be here in September. On the 28th. Is that okay with you?"

Bucky tries to wish him a happy birthday on his actual birthday when he doesn't know that the rest don't know yet and Steve basically tackles him before he can get a word out.

There are two days both Bucky and Tony will see Steve's anxiety through the roof.

It's on the 4th of July and on 28th September.

Each second he just knows somehow it's going to get out. Maybe it should. He doesn't want to live with this anymore. But they can't know. He has gone too long. They will never stop making fun of him. He will never recover.

And both Tony and Bucky are just like,

"We have to help him. He's going off the walls"

"by what? Telling the others? Pfft- no this is so much more fun"

"how do you know anyways?"

"my dad was obsessed with the guy. Remembered more about him than me. Never thought I'd be this happy about that"

"huh"

"My gift is coming today"

"what is it anyways. You wouldn't tell anyone"

"It's a giant birthday card that sings him Happy Birthday on repeat"

"..."

"in any usual sense it would be alright. Just a joke. But today? One word related to his actual birthday?"

"he's so going to break"

"Oh yes he is"

"you're evil, Stark"

"If I was evil I would have told the others and had them keep it a secret and mess with him until he thinks he's going crazy"

"....and you didn't do that?"

"nope. That's my plan for next year. The big one zero zero. His 100th birthday is going to be amazing"

"I have never seen you think excited for literally anything else"

"What can I say? I just love my friends"

"uh huh"

"Oh the gift is here. FRIDAY remember to record this. I'm going to go put on a suit"
