Seashell Dream House
Link:
AO3
Summary:
Tony has a broken heart, a banged-up beach house, and three kids rummaging for odd treasures in his attic.
Tumblr media
Snippet:
Tony is twenty-two. There are flowers on the cracked countertop, chocolates on the floor, and a ring in the rusty sink when the door slams close and Steve walks out of his life to chase a paper boat dream.
He doesn't cry. The lightning strike doesn't scare him. Neither does the subsequent rattling of the half-shattered windows. What scares him is this: He is twenty-two, kicked out of his own fortune because he followed his beating heart to a dead end, with only a banged-up beach house and a small batch of savings left to his name. What scares him is this: When the morning comes, none of his friends pick up his call and when Tony goes back to their temporary stay, he finds Sharon wearing Steve's shirt with his things packed in a box.
The next day, he wakes up curled up inside the attic of the battered beach house where two boys stare at him with wide eyes and a curious case of wonder.
"You're Tony Snark," the smaller one with the brown curls yells and Tony barks out a laugh.

What makes Charles and Max interactions more special than Norstappen/Maxiel ones in your eyes? Besides tha fact that Maxiel and Norstappen are close friends
I have a longer version of this ask lurking in my drafts right now so I'll make this short(er) and sweet!
I think the fact that Charles and Max have known each other for a super duper long time really leans into it. I believe they've said themselves they're not really sure how/when they met. They have this super long history where they were each other's only real challenge in karting growing up and they've had similar timelines progressing to F1 (Max a couple of years before Charles true, but still similar). What I, and I think people who love Lestappen find really compelling is the fact that they've talked openly about how they hated each other as kids. Like, by the sounds of it they really could not stand each other because each of them were the other's main rival.
And here we come to the crux of Lestappen - they still very much consider the other person to be their main rival. To quote DTS S5E1, "I want to beat him as much as he wants to beat me". Max asks after a lot of his friends, true, but he specifically knows all about Charles's strats and points and tires even when Charles is nowhere near him currently in championship points, ditto with Charles (lest we forget Charles having Max's points on his lockscreen). Max has also been very quick to say that the reason Charles isn't challenging him for the title is because of Ferrari, nothing to do with Charles's ability as a driver. I think what's compelling is that they've gone through all these years of obsessively hating each other, and now they've managed to build this friendship and respect, but are still absolutely obsessed with each other.
Since you mentioned Norstappen and Maxiel, I love Max's friendship with Lando, and Max's friendship with Daniel–but yeah Lestappen is always going to be number one for me. I've always loved pairings that dance a line between friends/enemies/rivals/something more because I think it's more interesting to ponder and observe and consume.
TLDR: Lestappen has more nuanced history which is why it's interesting to see these two talk and smile and frown and interact knowing they consider the other to be their only other true equal no matter what happens because that's the way it's always been.

Shadow
Tony found Steve staring at the ceiling in the common area, clearly confused.
He followed Steve’s gaze and spotted a large shadow in the corner.
“Are you gonna do something about that spider?” Tony asked, amused.
“Don’t you think it’s a little… too big?”
“Since when are you arachnophobic?” Tony teased.
“I’m not. It’s just… odd.”
“Want me to remove it? I know a trick.”
“Trick?”
“If you come down now, you can stay for dinner and we’ll order Thai food!”
Suddenly Peter dropped from the ceiling, making Steve gasp.
Tony laughed, “The camouflage function almost works. Good job, Pete.”

My Best Friend's Wedding Omegaverse AU with Peggy as Jules, Steve as Michael and Tony as Kimmy.
Peggy (Beta) and Steve (Alpha) were lifelong friends. They dated for a few years until their jobs have them moving all around - Peggy as a food critic and Steve as a sportswriter. They did promise each other that if they were still unmarried at 28, they'd marry each other.
A few weeks before her 28th birthday, Peggy received a call from Steve letting her know that he's engaged and marrying Tony in a week so could Peggy please come to their wedding?
Anthony "Tony" Stark (Omega), a college student seven years younger than them and whose father owns the LA Dodgers.
Peggy realizes that Steve is the love of her life so she needs to stop the wedding. Clearly, Steve is just doing it for the Dodgers and not really in love with that Omega. She packs up and booked a flight to LA for the next day.

Tony loves to tease Steve with the story of how he ran away after their first night. He doesn't miss an opportunity to make his husband blush.

Ao3 is down so here's something spicey
It takes Tony three tries to finally admit to Steve that he has slept with both Barnes and Wilson. Individually. Back in days of yore when he was known to be a loose canon.
In his defense, he was high and in mourning for the first. That and he didn't even know it was the fucking Winter Soldier he was riding relentlessly through his clouded mind. At least not until years decades later when Romanoff told him ", hey your parents didn't die in a car accident and here's the guy who was brainwashed into killing them". It was morbid how fast Tony recognised him as the man who he got high and sly with and not as Hydra's darling puppet.
With Wilson it was a little more complicated. It had been him doing last minute check on the wings for the Falcon project. It had been him, young and aching to prove himself to the big leagues, versus this cock-sure newbie with a sharp tongue. He'd been down on his knees before nightfall.
Now, he loves Steve. He loves him soft and tender, and also like a raging fire storm.
But god damn it, he also yearns for Sam's heated, knowing gaze travelling down his back. He aches for Barnes and his cold, sharp eyes digging into his skin.
He thinks it's selfish.
He thinks it could be because he's still a spoiled rich brat under all the glitz and glamour.
"So you and Sam? And Bucky?"
Tony nods. It took him three tries but he finally spilled the tea. Or rather a generous amount of spiced curry all over the carpet.
"Do they know?"
"Yeah. Wilson, he ah... We didn't exchange names, but... Yeah, a goatee and age don't make much of a disguise."
"And Buck?"
"He does. Now. But he didn't remember until you know-" B.A.R.F. he doesn't add. Seems like an off-putting word to utter in this situation.
"Right."
They sit on the opposite ends of the bed. And Tony lets him mull over his thoughts.
Whatever he wants, Tony will try his best to give it to him. Space. Apology. Time. Comeuppance.
Whatever.
Tony loves Steve that much.
Only, Steve doesn't ask for any of those things.
What he asks for instead is:
"Can I watch?"
Well...
He does love Steve that much.

Relief.
Tumblr media
I love Steve's open and genuine smile, and Tony's attempt at humor despite the very near brush with death.
"I've seen the footage. The only thing you really fight for is yourself.
You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play, to lay down on a wire and let the other guy crawl over you."
"I think I would just cut the wire."
I love how it comes full circle, with the harsh words and prejudices from before they knew each other, how the words stung. I feel like this is where all the preconceptions fall apart, and Steve has realized and is properly seing Tony for the kind of man he is for the first time (a man who would lie down on a wire, has been this entire time..)

For the @stevetonygames 2023 Team Past Square "Nope Nope Nope" For the "Inspired by" challenge, a little fic about THIS incredible piece of art by @sibmakesart! <3
You can also read the story on AO3. :)
~~~
Wordless
~600 words
Summary: Tony doesn't want to talk to Steve. Thankfully, he doesn't need to.
Steve knew something was wrong the moment he stepped out of the elevator and into the penthouse. Right in front of him lay Tony’s suit jacket on the floor, carelessly dropped, so it seemed. Steve picked it up and hung it on one of the clothes hooks, then he started looking for Tony.
He found him in the kitchen, sitting on the counter, with a glass of whiskey in his hand. Tony didn’t look up when Steve entered, just stared into his glass as if it could provide answers to unasked questions.
Tony had only lost the jacket so far and was still in his black business suit, the red tie around his neck barely loosened. Usually, Tony’s first mission after coming home was to change into more comfortable clothes.
Steve approached him slowly, like he would do it with a wounded animal, and he had to admit Tony reminded him of one at the moment.
“Hey honey,” Steve said, keeping his voice low as he stood right in front of him.
Tony didn’t say anything or moved at all.
Steve put a hand on Tony’s thigh, hoping the touch would help in any way. He didn’t put pressure on it, just made sure Tony knew it was there.
Then Steve noticed something that made the whole situation even more concerning. Tony wasn’t wearing his prosthetic arm. The sleeve on his right side was neatly secured with a safety pin.
“Is it the pain?” Steve asked.
The pain from an arm Tony had lost years ago when saving the universe. The pain he still felt sometimes. Steve refused to call it phantom pain, because it was real for Tony. It wouldn’t help to ignore it.
“Tony, please.”
The following silence was deafening. Steve wanted to help so badly, to make Tony stop suffering, but he didn’t know how.
He let his fingers trail over Tony’s arm. Tony loved physical contact and it was the least Steve could do right now.
It seemed to help a little, because after a while Tony bend forward and pressed his forehead against Steve’s shoulder. He could hear him breathing heavily, smelling faintly of whiskey.
“Why won’t you talk to me?” Steve whispered, more to himself than to Tony.
He didn’t expect an answer anymore. If Tony didn’t want to talk, he wouldn’t be persuaded. All Steve could do was wait.
He carefully took the glass from Tony’s hand and put it on the counter next to them. Then Steve embraced Tony tightly, letting his hand trail up and down his back. He could feel Tony shiver from the touch.
“I’m here,” Steve said.
They stayed like that for a long time, Tony’s arm hanging limp on his side as if he couldn’t find the energy to hold onto Steve. That was okay. Steve had enough strength for both of them.
“I’m thinking pasta for dinner,” Steve said as he carefully removed his arms from Tony, putting one hand on the back of his neck. “With that sauce from your mother’s recipe. Sound good?”
Tony straightened up and looked at Steve for the first time since he had come home. And Steve could see it – the love and gratitude that was almost palpable. Maybe Tony would talk to him after dinner, maybe Steve had to wait until tomorrow. It didn’t matter; he would wait until Tony was ready.
Steve smiled, then pressed a soft kiss to Tony’s forehead before he said, “I love you, too.”
