An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

"Tony, can you do a favor for me?" Steve says as he walks into the workshop.

"Well, capsicle, that depends," he turns his current project over in his hands, "Do you want someone dead or your AC fixed? 'Cause I can't do the first one. God, I sound like my dad."

Steve is tense as he speaks, "I need a marriage license certified… it's posthumous."

Tony's eyes widen, "I don't think Peggy's husband is going to appreciate you trying to steal his wife. (CHECK: REPLACE NEXT SENTACE WITH: I didn't know you had it in you cap. (?)) Hate to break it to ya (CHECK: NICKNAME), but you missed your shot with her." (CHECK: REWRITE)

(CHECK: ALTERNATIVE TO PREVIOUS LINE. Tony raises an eyebrow at that "Good boy gone bad! I wonder what… I don't even know her husband's name! Cucking a man and I don't even know his name. Gotta say Cap, I didn't think you (had it in you)/(were the type for that).")

Steve takes a step back, startled, "what?"

"You know," Tony waves a wrench(CHECK: MAYBE CHANGE TO HIGH TECH TOOL?; Tony waves a glowing device that Steve can't even guess at the purpose) as he speaks, "Forbidden love between you and Peggy! Two lovers, torn apart by time! Getting back together behind her husband's back. It makes for quite the soap opera."

Steve is tense what he speaks, "Well, ah, no. It's," he takes a shallow breath, "It's for Bucky. And me."

"Oh. Oh! Can do Rogers. Buuuuut, if you want me to do this, you have to do something for me." (CHECK: "BUT… IF YOU WANT ME TO DO THIS YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING FOR ME. YOU NEED TO TELL ME ABOUT YOU AND BARNES" "WHAT?" "WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT? HOW DID YOU GET TOGETHER? WHAT WAS HE LIKE TO DATE? WHAT WAS IT LIKE IN BED-" "TONY!" "COME ON! (CHECK: (TELL ME ABOUT HIM)/(YOU HAVE TO TELL ME SOMETHING))!")

Steve has to stop himself from rolling his eyes(CHECK: EYE ROLL SEEMS TOO CHILDISH, CHANGE TO ARMS CROSSED?), giving Tony a blank stare (CHECK: REMOVE "GIVING TONY A BLANK STARE"), "What do you want, Tony?"

"Give me some stories me about you and Bucky. And I want juicy ones." Tony turned to face Steve fully, "Real juicy."

Steve "this is stupid and unprofesional"

Tony "don't care"

Steve "I don't even know what you would consider juicy. What do you even want to know?"

Tony "Oh, just basic stuff. How you guys got together, what he was like in bed-"

Steve "Tony! Good lord! I will not discus my sex life with you. When I was fifteen I told him how I felt, he resipocated. Happy?"

Tony "Of course I'm not happy! What was that? Come on Cap, (CHECK: if you aren't going to answer the sex question, at least give me the whole story). IN DEPTH, you've got an eidetic memory, use it. (CHECK: THIS IS TOO PUSHY, TONY SOUNDS LIKE THIS IS A JOB AND NOT ENTERTAINMENT)"

(CHECK: STEVE RESISTS A BIT HERE, STEVE THINKS TONY JUST WANTS TO TURN HIS AND BUCKY"S RELATIONSHIP INTO GOSSIP, BUT TONY CLAIFIES THAT HE ACTUALLY CARES, AND STEVE FEELS MORE WILLING TO SHARE)

Steve "Ok.(CKECK: CUT THE OK OUT. THAT SUCKS!!!) I had known how I felt about Bucky for almost a year before I told him, I would've told him sooner but I kept hoping that how I felt would just… stop. It didn't, and when I finally accepted that it wasn't going to, I decided he needed to know. Back then… I- I thought I was sick. That how I felt was a sickness. I couldn't bare staying his friend while keeping that from him. So I told him, and he started laughing. He said only I could be stupid enough to go to hell over him, and I said I would go to hell for whoever I wanted to and that he was an even bigger idiot if he thought otherwise. He said that wasn't the real reason he was an idiot, he was an idiot because he would follow me where ever I went. Even to hell.(CHECK: REWRITE PAST TWO SENTANCES) He said he felt the same way. Said he wanted me too."

(CHECK: STEVE IS SITTING HERE)

Tony- "God, you two are so sweet. I hate it. I already deal with heart failure, are you aiming to make me diabetic too? Tell me more."

Steve- "I'm not answering the sex question."

Tony- "No, not the sex question. I am capable of asking completely family friendly questions, you know. Like… what made you like Barnes(CHECK: NICKNAME) in the first place?"

"Well," Steve gives a small smile, "I liked him since the first time I met him. It was in . I don't think there was a definite moment that made me fall in love with him. He just… he was always a part of my life, a part of me. He was the best man I ever knew… I was always trying to be like him. He was the (CHECK: DESCRIBE BUCKY)."

(CHECK: THIS PART IS THE END) A posthumous marriage certifcate for a M.I.A. soldier is a lot easier to get than people realize. You know, a sob story can really get pens pushing. Plus, you know, billions of dollars doesn't hurt." Tony finally turns to Steve, "Do you want to keep this private? Once the paperwork goes through, people are going to find out pretty quick."

"I'm ok with that. If there's enough time, I would like to be the one to tell people, but… we've wanted this for years. I don't want to keep waiting when Bucky and I could be married already."

Tony snorts, "Yeah, city council'll love you."
