What are your top 10 favorite Irondad fics? :3
ok when i got this is shrieked and then promptly forgot every irondad fic that i’ve ever read lmao. it took me forever to remember them and i feel like i’m forgetting a big one. oh well. anyways, i limited this to one fic per author and didn’t let myself include whole series (i.e. i picked my favorites in a series) bc both of those felt like cheating. i feel like very few of these are surprises bc i’ve included most of them on other rec lists? also this could just be a rhodey appreciation rec list because he is my favorite and i adore him and a good chunk of these have gr8 rhodey moments. he’s the BEST and i will not hear otherwise. don’t forget to comment and leave kudos. ily, thanks for asking and i hope you love these as much as i do :) x
it’ll be over (and I’ll still be asking when) by JBS_Forever
They are fighting a one-story tall mechanical robot in the middle of Brooklyn when Peter swings over its head and says, “You guys ever see The Incredibles?”
it sinks its roots into the cracks (until the structure’s coming loose) by madasthesea
“I can’t believe Tony Stark is gonna have a kid.”
The worst part is that Peter’s first thought is, He already has one, followed by the sinking realization that that isn’t quite true.
man vs food by tempestaurora
They started at Mother’s Cupboard in Manhattan. It was a hole-in-the-wall type place with little seating, but they secured a table and ordered Waffles for Harley and the Frittata Challenge for Peter.
The server behind the counter raised her eyebrows. “You’re tiny,” she said. “Not—not that I mean that in a bad way. But, you’re tiny. You know what’s in the Frittata Challenge, right?”
Peter nodded, and recited, “Six pounds of scrambled eggs, sausage, pepperoni, and hash browns.”
“Thousands of people have attempted the challenge,” Harley added, “but ninety-five percent failed.”
The woman eyed them for a moment and nodded. “If you finish it you get a t-shirt and your photo on the wall. If you finish it.”
“That’s the plan, ma’am.“
5 times Peter is stuck with Tony by iron_spider
(…and one time he’s stuck alone.)
“I wonder if Pepper’s reported me missing yet,” Tony says, with an exaggerated sigh. “I wonder if this is some kind of scheme to kidnap me or something.”
“I think the ride’s just broken,” Peter says.
“Today of all goddamn days,” Tony says, exasperation clear in his voice and in his eyes. “Ruining our trip—”
“It’s not ruined,” Peter says. “Look, we’re hanging out.”
“Real quality time,” Tony huffs. “Us, a few other trapped members of the general public, and a handful of animatronic pirates. Drunk pirates. Repeating themselves.”
You can’t keep the ground from shaking (no matter how hard you try) by SparrowFlight246
Tony gets shot at a lunch with Peter, and Rhodey and Peter spend a few hours together in an OR waiting room.
Rhodey realizes his mother-henning tendencies exceed even his own expectations.

“So they’re coming back to New York?” Peter asks, and Tony gives him a look.
“We’ll see,” he says, pulls an old-looking flip phone out of his pocket and tosses it in the air a couple times before setting it on the table.
“The government doesn’t know where they are because they’re amateurs, so they can’t summon them. I haven’t kept tabs on them, but if I were them I’d probably go to Wakanda, and Cap’s not a complete idiot, so either they’re in Wakanda or they’ve at least visited at some point. The public announcement of the pardon will probably be today on the evening news, but it was put on record in the government about half an hour ago, which means by now T’Challa has probably found out about it. And if he knows, I think it’s rather safe to assume he’d contact Cap and Friends, which means this absolute disgrace to technology should start ringing somewhere around real soon because I’m definitely petty enough not to call him first-”
The phone on the table starts ringing. Tony flashes Peter a grin at the boy’s amazed expression.
OR Tony gets Rogue Avengers pardoned, and a lot of this is from Peter’s point of view because this is taking a toll on Tony
i can’t seem to get a grip, no matter how i live with it by psikeval
Tony knows he’s got no business being a father.
Everything Comes Back To You: Chapter 6: Trope: Argument by losingmymindtonight
It’s all in your head by itsallAvengers
It came back to him in fragments.
Disjointed memories and hazy feelings. Sat there in the cot whilst SHIELD poked and prodded at every part of his body, he could do nothing except think. He could smell it- and he wasn’t sure whether it was psychosomatic or not, but to him it felt very real. Tony’s blood smelt like copper and metal and it was all over his hands.
(Peter gets whammied by alien magic, and Tony pays the price)
Heroes Don’t Need Sick Days by psufoxes
Peter Parker learns two new things in the beginning of January, and it’s that teenagers with the powers of a spider can, indeed, get sick, and that Tony Stark should never be allowed in the kitchen ever again.
