In the Stillness of Remembering by elise_509 I was very impressed with how this author manages not to compromise Tony’s character, but also make Natasha her own character as well. This is a lovely character study of how Tony would be different if he had been born a woman. It was the first time Steve met Tasha, the come and goes between then, the fact that even though the things Steve loved about her were pretty much the same - the genius, the stubbornness, the heart of golden under a pile of emotional barrier - Natasha Stark isn’t Anthony Stark. The marriage of Natasha Stark and Steve Rogers avoided the Civil War, but it goes way further back than that. I quite enjoy this story, particularly the beginning chapters of banter between Tony and a completely fed up Steve. On paper, the nice old-fashioned way, because the computer screen hurts his eyes.Īpparently this is the fic that everyone’s talking about, though I just discovered it the other day at the recommendation of a friend. WIP 1796 Broadway by rainproof, teaberryblueĬaptain America respectfully requests that all complaints be addressed to him in writing. I read this all almost in one sitting, and the interruption was definitely not my choice. When SHIELD decides to help him “adjust” by getting him a teaching job, Steve is skeptical but then there’s Tony, and Steve finds he doesn’t mind the 21st century so much after all. It’s not going particularly well, if the embarrassingly high number of times he’s been kidnapped in the past six months is any indication. In the meantime, a certain Capsicle is defrosted a year early, and is assigned the task of capturing the notorious Iron Man.

Okay, that one was Tony’s fault, but it was totally an accident. He also picks up a teaching job-all Pepper’s fault-and oh, right, becomes a supervillain.

When he escapes, he sets out to ruin Stane as completely and ruthlessly as he can, playing up his PTSD and quitting his job to destroy Stane quietly from the outside. Tony discovers Stane’s betrayal while he’s still being held captive. Saving the World (Is Totally A Date) by Wordsplat SeriesĪ very intriguing AU, I really enjoyed this story and the attention to detail in the setting. The plan was simple, which, in hindsight was the first indication that everything was about to fall apart. Steve Rogers, one of SHIELD’s top operatives, is sent undercover into one of the USSR’s many internment camps with the specific instructions to retrieve him. Tony Stark, an unremarkable day laborer in the gulag in Izhma, has been deemed too much of a liability to be allowed to remain in Soviet control.
