Pairing: Tony Stark/T’Challa

Completed: Yes

“My King.” Nareema bows. “A young man appeared at the southern border a couple of hours ago. He’s asking to see you.”

That gets T’Challa’s attention fast. His eyes narrow. “Sounds interesting.” He leans back in his seat.

“His name is Peter Parker. Mr. Parker claims to be Spider-Man. He has proved his abilities to Teela’s satisfaction,” Nareema announces. “He also claims that Tony Stark is missing, and no one will believe him. You, sir, are his last resort.”

T’Challa stares.

When Tony is kidnapped by HYDRA, T'Challa finds himself plunged into Avenger-drama, but it has its advantages.

He’s The Captain?

This was not good. This was so not good.

There were theories of course, of what The Captain would look like. Most followed the typical Hollywoodesque belief that he was some version of the Godfather, sitting in a dark room with a cigar, commanding his forces with a flick of his wrist. There were even some that even thought that The Captain was not one person, but a whole network of people with eyes and ears everywhere.

The blonde Adonis in front of him was definitely not what Tony was expecting.

Of course, in the end it didn’t matter.

There was a reason no one knew what The Captain looked like.

Because anyone who saw his face never lived to tell the tale.

Tony reminded himself that the second the incorrect password was entered, the phone would destroy itself and any data on it. And there was no way someone named Tepid the Magnificent would guess--

“I’m in,” said Tepid. “Soon I’ll know all of the Avengers’ secrets.”

Tony briefly closed his eyes. “Steve. What was your password?”

“It’s ‘password,’” Tepid replied.

Or: Tony and Steve get captured.

Six years ago, without the Avengers Initiative there to save the day, scientist Dr. Eric Selvig sacrificed himself to save the world, the almighty demi-god Thor was lost to a terrible storm, and vigilante Iron Man – spotted with a nuclear weapon trying to take advantage of the situation – was forever labelled an enemy of SHIELD.

Pairing: Steve Rogers/Tony Stark

Completed: Yes

Tony Stark resigned his commission in Starfleet five years ago, after a disastrous away mission, and he swore he'd never go back. He just wants to be left alone to build warp engines in peace. But the universe has more in store for him than that, as he discovers when Admiral Fury comes to him with an offer he could never have expected and cannot possibly refuse: first officer and chief engineer aboard the all-new USS Avenger, a starship of Tony's own design. What's more, the Avenger's captain is Steve Rogers, hero of the Earth-Romulan War. Believed dead for over a century, Steve is miraculously alive... and very, very attractive.

But nothing is ever easy for Tony. As he wrestles with his secret desire for his new captain and his not-so-dormant fears, another mission starts to go wrong, and Tony becomes aware that Steve has secrets of his own -- and the truth could change everything.

Completed: Yes

It's not over till it's over... which basically means keep going till you get what you want, in some people's books. Roughly 2.5 seconds after the Avengers go into exile, they're coming back, ready to sign the Accords and be Avengers again. Unable to resist the political boon as far as getting other people to sign goes, the Counsel pardons them and draws up contracts with Tony Stark in order to house them in someplace appropriate (read: with someone whose dealt with hem before).

The task is wearing Tony down, though. Even as he races to come up with enough new Avengers to keep the old dynamic from setting up again, Tony is falling deeper into a funk where he's unable to invent or eat or sleep all that much, there are people all around pressuring him to do all sorts of bad ideas. But as the pounds fall off and the duties build up and fear of letting people in again piles on and Tony gets more and more irrational regarding the old Avengers, people begin to suspect that something is wrong. Very, very wrong.

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. 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.

The plan was simple, which, in hindsight was the first indication that everything was about to fall apart.

Soulmates have their first words to each other written on their wrists. This should make it easy. For Steve and Tony, it is anything but. Steve's problem is that the future he has awoken into is nothing he was ever expecting: he has a soulmate now. Who might be a robot. And if his soulmate is Iron Man, how can he be so attracted to Tony Stark? It should be impossible. Tony's problem is that he is Iron Man, his soulmate is a man whom he in no way deserves, and he is going to fight everything in his heart and do his best to make sure Steve never, ever finds out the whole truth.

It's been two months since Loki's official integration to SHIELD as a consultant, and someone jokingly writes on the general announcements board:

S.H.I.E.L.D. PRIORITY PROTOCOL FOR EMERGENCIES INVOLVING IMPOSSIBLE INCIDENTS:

1. Blame Loki

No one disagrees and it becomes another of SHIELD's unofficial rules.

Or, Loki is taken in by SHIELD after his fall from the Bifrost lands him on Earth, and he proceeds to show everyone, constantly, why he deserves the title ‘God of Mischief’. Fury is not amused. Neither is everybody else at SHIELD, except maybe Barton.
