Steve/Tony Endgame Event Interest Poll

I've been thinking about hosting a Steve/Tony fanworks event/exchange focused on their relationship and scenes in Endgame and beyond (2023 seems appropriate :P), so here's a poll to see how many people might be interested.

Reblogs welcome!

If you want to participate in the event, please help @thahiree and I out by answering a couple more questions here about the event, thanks - it takes less than a minute :)

[robertdowneyjjr]

it’s that easy

a second chance: stevetony endgame mini-exchange // 3.8k words

Steve has two problems:

1. He has feelings for Tony but he’s not sure what to do about it. 2. Peter and Harley don’t seem to like him and he doesn’t know why.

Actually, he has three problems.

3. There’s no way in hell Tony would be interested in him when his kids clearly hate him.

Bucky thinks Steve’s only problem is that he’s an idiot.

written for @snowzapped featuring pining steve, smartass teenagers peter and harley, best friends steve & bucky, and obviously the best thing in the world: nobody dies in endgame. please enjoy a snippet below, and you can read the full fic on ao3

---

“Where did I go so wrong in life,” Tony whines as he enters the library, sinking into the couch next to Steve, “that none of my children want to rep the family and go to MIT for college.”

“The boys still won’t let you write their recommendation letters, huh?” Steve asks with a quirk to his lips. He bookmarks his page and closes the novel, placing it on the table next to him.

“Is it because of Thanos? Is this punishment for not defeating him that first time around? Are Harley and Peter lashing out because I couldn’t stop them from turning into dust?” Tony continues without acknowledging Steve.

“Pretty sure punishment was the five years of living with half of our loved ones missing, but sure Tony, this is definitely a targeted attack from Harley and Peter on you specifically.”

“I give and I give and I give. I set up rooms for them here at the compound so they can stay on the weekend. I work with them on their projects and go to their parent-teacher conferences when their mom and aunt can’t. And how do they repay me? By refusing to let me be part of their college application process.”

“Maybe they just want to do this on their own,” Steve suggests. “They also have their school counselors and teachers helping them out.”

“What next? Are they going to tell me I can’t go to their graduation?” Tony goes on, still ignoring Steve’s perfectly reasonable responses. He flings one arm over his eyes, the other one draping off one arm of the couch he’s leaning on while his legs splay inelegantly. The red and gold of his prosthetic arm gleams where the light from the fireplace reflects off of it and Steve can't look away, mesmerized by the curves of the arm and how similar and yet different it looks to Tony's armors. He wails, “Steve, why do my kids hate me?!”

Steve/Tony Endgame Mini Exchange

Now that the expose is out, I can share the three fics I wrote for @suitofhumour ("XtaticPearl" on AO3)! Huge shout to Pearl for the superb prompts. You got the ol' dome spinning.

A massive thank you to the mods; @ishipallthings, @thahiree and meidui. You guys are the real rockstars. The true troopers. A billion de bisous.

Onto the fics! Hip Hip Hooray!

"One Final Surprise" 😱❌👰

Tony accidentally calls Steve from the flip-phone after his wedding gets called off.

Otherwise known as "hip".

"Take Two: It Takes Two" 2️⃣🤝

Steve and Tony navigate the ups and downs of their first date. (Post-Endgame!AU)

Legally and contractually obligated to refer to as "hip".

"Forgive The Winters, Keep No Records" 🗣️🤔💙

Tony recovers from his twenty-three days in space. Guess who volunteers to help him through it?

Most definitely known as "hooray".

Hip, hip hooray for EG!SteveTony.

& Hip, hip, hooray to all the fic writers, artists, cheerleaders and pinch hitters who helped make this event so wonderful. Additional hooray for the mods again because they deserve it. Good job team!

[becci-chan]

Here's my fic for CapBlondette for the @stevetonyisendgame Mini Exchange! ♡ In Our Hands by Becci_chan for CapBlondette | FIC - 1.6k, T Summary: Memories slowly appeared in his mind. The battle. The way he’d taken the gauntlet from Thanos. Peter who was suddenly by his side. And Steve. The snap. But not much after. He only remembered the blinding light and the power in his hand, as well as the pain. I hope you all enjoy! ♥

For the @stevetonygames Team Past square Consequence challenge Resolutions (write daily, word count).

Words: 162

Universe: MCU

POV: Steve

Warnings: NOT an Endgame Fix-It, Stevetony not endgame, Civil War consequences, unhappy ending

Not his place

Steve had brought them into this situation, now he had to live with it.

They had lost Tony, and it was his fault. 

He was just hoping that Fury’s communicator would do… something. He didn’t expect a galactic weapon of a woman.

—

The weeks of waiting with no word from anyone were hell. Then, the signal. Steve knew he had about five hours until Carol would get here. He pressed his shirt, and shaved off his beard.

When Tony walked down the stairs of the spaceship, Steve couldn’t control himself. He forgot everything around him. There was just Tony. He sprinted towards him.

Then he remembered - he couldn’t hold him anymore. It wasn’t his place.

So he watched Pepper pull him close, kiss him on the cheek.

Empty eyes looked at him. Hollow. Tony looked so, so weak.

It was his fault, he knew it. They should have faced this one together.

But it was way, way too late for that now.

[mrsgingles]

It feels like ages ago that I posted some Stevetony – here's my gift for Fluffypanda as part of the Stevetony Endgame Mini-Exchange!

Prompt: Tony wakes up after dying

Please check out all the other wonderful works and leave the artists and authors some love <3 there's still so many fics I want to read from the event!

Stevetony Weekly - March 3 - Week 9

Here’s what I read this week. If you haven’t checked out the February podfic list, be sure to check that out as well! As always, be sure to leave comment/kudos for your authors. 

~*~

Unintended Side Effects by AvengersNewB for sabrecmc

Steve has to go to the ER with a rather embarrassing problem - thankfully Dr. Stark takes excellent care of him.

If Through a Door by jibrailis

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

there are still beautiful things by meidui

The day Tony takes Steve home from the New York Army National Guard is the best day of his life.

years we held on to by Areiton 

It happened like this--

He put the Valkyrie down, and he didn’t even mind, knew damn well it meant he’d die and he was almost grateful. They’d burnt Hydra out of Europe and the Nazis were being beaten back--the war was almost over.

What use was there, for the world’s only super soldier, when the world knew peace?

He put the Valkyrie down and he didn’t die.

(my heart is burning) holes in the ground by felisnocturna

In the end, it's a scent that leads them back home, like Ariadne's thread in a labyrinth of illusions.

Riders On The Storm by CaughtAGhost (ghosthan), ghosthan

"I don't think help is coming."

 Tony falls into a hole he can't claw himself out of.

and that's how it works by complicationstoo 

Steve is on the other side of the door, a small smile on his face and a plastic bag in his hand that he lifts up into the air to show. “I brought reinforcements.”

Tony steps back to let him in and asks, “Who told you?”

“Your boyfriend told me,” Steve confesses, then amends, “Ex-boyfriend.”

Something Beautiful by Annie D (scaramouche)

In one universe sideways, it’s 2012 and the Avengers have just defeated Loki and the Chitauri. Steve Rogers, who has been out of the ice for almost ten years, wonders if his retaking the shield for this event was a one-off, or if he’s ready to keep it again. It depends on Tony.

Pasta Pains by KandiSheek

Steve's pasta is an insult to Tony's heritage, and he's not going to take it lying down. Luckily the rest of the team is used to their squabbling.

talk just right by meidui

The most Tony hears Steve talk is when they argue, but hand to god, that's not the reason Tony keeps picking fights with him.

Well, maybe a little.

Beautiful Mistakes by tinystark616 

Steve helped Tony with his most recent heat, which was clearly a mistake, because now Tony is avoiding him.

The problem? He's in love with Tony.

The other problem? Iron Man, his best friend in the whole world, is also avoiding him.

dream come true by tinystark616

Steve likes to think that their last mission made them grow closer somehow, that Tony was truthful when he said he doesn't resent Steve anymore, and that now that the mission is done and Tony is recovering well, they can have another shot at being friends.

Or,

Steve and Tony become very close after the events of Avengers: Endgame, and Steve realizes that "the simple life" Tony told him about long ago is something that he wants, and he wants to live it with Tony.

give you everything by tinystark616 for oluka (lomku)

Steve really likes how Tony looks in the Iron Man armor.

Medley Month - Marvel Cinematic Universe: Cap-IM Universe Medley Fest

Banner created by starksnack, with thanks!

It's the 15th, so welcome to the next month of Cap-IM's Universe Medley fest!

You can create as many works as you like across as many different mediums as you like! This is a no-pressure, low commitment challenge to encourage you to try something new, stretch your creativity, and check out other versions of Steve and Tony.

For our full fest guidelines, including our annual schedule, please click here.

Coming up, Marvel Cinematic Universe Month!

Oh, what a time it was in 2012 when the first Avengers movie came out! People discovered what the comics Stevetony fans had long known — Steve and Tony go together like peanut butter and jelly, coffee and donuts, marmite on toast. The movie launched thousands of fanworks, and we all remember the Tower fanwork days, where Steve and Tony bickered and fell for each other as the team threw movie nights and hoped that Steve and Tony would finally admit their love.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe covers the whole range of possible tropes like found family, pining, enemies to lovers, angst, and the ever popular fix-it works! So many great moments to explore and expand on — Steve and Tony coming together at the Battle of New York, the night at Clint's farm, the devastation of Civil War, Steve reuniting with Tony after he was rescued from space, and fixing the ending of Endgame (or not). And that's without mentioning all the opportunity to drop Steve and Tony into other settings and worlds; soulbonds, sports AUs, "and they were roomates" modern AUs, omegaverse, fusion works, and so many more!

There's plenty of material to work with, some great chances to imagine fork-in-the-road scenarios, and lots to love about Steve and Tony in the MCU — what inspires you?

are there any differences in how your approach writing stevetony compared to stories where one of them is involved in another romantic pairing?

It was pretty funny to get this question right before I got tagged in a rec of one of my two Winteriron fics. The universe has a theme, I guess.

I haven't written a whole lot of stories for Steve and Tony where the endgame is another pairing -- I have a couple Winteriron stories, and I have a Clint/Steve story, and even though the Steve/Batroc story ends up Steve/Tony I feel like they end in an amicable enough place that it should count. This is in contrast with, say, Tony/Ty, because while I would say that I ship them it's not because I think their relationship is the OTP kind of thing. Tony's sure not with Ty because Ty's going to make him happy, anyway. They fulfill a different narrative need in my soul.

I don't think I've written any stories with other pairings that are as tightly tied to canon as a lot of my Steve/Tony fic is -- I tend to write a lot of fic that is like "okay, how do Steve and Tony feel about each other now that this one specific canon event has happened to both of them" (like Civil War, or the Judgment Day fic I am currently writing) whereas my other-pairing fic is like "it probably takes place at this time but it's not based on a specific thing that they underwent together and possibly these characters didn't even know each other in canon then so you'll have to use your imagination." I think it's a little trickier as a writer because then you have to do more of the heavy lifting yourself to show why they'd be good together whereas with Steve and Tony it's like "obviously we all know that these guys are in love because we have issues and issues about how they feel about each other and we can mention a couple things and then just skip to the getting-together bit." Possibly this is because I am just The Most OTP about Steve/Tony.

The dynamics are obviously different. Clint and Steve have this kind of antagonistic hero worship thing going on that is definitely Them and would look really, really weird in a Steve/Tony story. And when I write Bucky/Tony it seems like a lot of it ends up being about Steve anyway, even if Steve isn't the focus -- like, if that Cold War Winteriron story had been Steve/Tony instead, Tony would have cared way sooner about how Steve was slowly losing his mind. Steve's situation matters to him once he knows what it is, but Steve is kind of just hovering around the edges of the story there. Canonically, Bucky and Tony's initial dynamic is very much defined by the absence of Steve (by which I mean that Bucky tries to kill Tony because he thinks Tony is responsible for Steve's death), so I think when I write them Steve still has to factor in, even if he's not part of the pairing.

It's different, is what I am saying. But it's still fun.

[arabellamonkey]
