Do you know any fics where Tony gets insulted by the team and someone(preferably Bucky) stands up for him? Also bonus points if Bruce, Thor and T’Challa are part of Team Tony.
You’ve got me going back to all those salty post-Civil War fics out there! I’ve separated this list into two categories, ones that I know have specifically Bucky standing up for Tony and others that are more general “Team Tony” or have others standing up for him. Most of these are “not team cap friendly” for obvious reasons.
Pairing: Gen (possibllypre T’Challa/Tony or Bucky/Tony)
In the final fight scene of Captain America Civil War, Tony’s helmet breaks off the armour after the relentless clashing it receives.
What if the harsh hits to his head create serious complications for Tony, and he loses his sight?

Pairing: Bucky Barnes/Tony Stark
Tony isn’t a healthy man. He’s fine with that, really. It makes perfect sense. Unfortunately, he has a job to do that kind of has his health as a major requirement. So he unmakes himself, remakes the Accords, protects every single child super that enters his field of view, and hopes ferociously that the Avengers never come back to the US. He doesn’t spend any time at all rebuilding Bucky Barnes’ life. Not a single second. Anything he does that contributes to him is simply an accident.
Bucky is a patient man. It’s ok if Tony wants to ignore him for now. He won’t be able to forever.
(Somewhere in the world, a sense of dread crawls up the back of Tony’s spine)
Strong enough to trust by Enmuse (Scifiroots)
Pairing: James “Bucky” Barnes/Tony Stark
Steve makes a life-altering choice, and Bucky wakes up from cryostasis to better circumstances than he could anticipate: Mind free of triggers, name cleared, fully pardoned, and a ticket back to the USA. It’s far more than he deserves, but with no other plans or ties, he finds himself relocating to the Avengers Initiative Compound alongside Stevie’s rogue superheroes.
He begins establishing a new life - friends, work, maybe even love - but doesn’t realize that the castles he is painstakingly building are ones in the sky.
“I… don’t understand,“ Bucky admits in a murmur.
Stark’s gaze drops to the silver-plated shoulder. “I fix things,” he says. His fingers drum restlessly against his chest. “And this is something I broke. You shouldn’t have to just live with the consequences when something can be done about it.”
Misremembered by Arboreal
Pairing: James “Bucky” Barnes/Tony Stark
When Loki smirked at Rogers in the middle of a battle and told him he would give Rogers what he wanted most in the world, the mind of his old friend back, Tony had a very bad feeling.

Pairing: James “Bucky” Barnes/Tony Stark
Bucky and the Winter Soldier agree on several things, all of which greatly distresses Steve.
Tony Stark Defense Squad (not Bucky specific):
Pairing: Tony Stark/T’Challa
“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.”
When Tony is kidnapped by HYDRA, T'Challa finds himself plunged into Avenger-drama, but it has its advantages.

Contractually Obligated by poetically_ordinary
Pairing: Tony Stark/Stephen Strange
When the wayward Avengers finally sign the Sokovia Accords, they return to a place that is no longer like they remember it to be. Everyone must come together to portray a united front to the world. Even if that’s the last thing happening behind the scenes.
Whispers of the Fallen by Wix
Pairing: Stephen Strange/Tony Stark
The Civil War has come and gone, but there are still lingering cracks in the foundation of the Avengers and there are always repercussions to be paid for choices made. Tony’s not too surprised that he seems to be the only one paying for anything around here these days, and things have just gotten so much more complicated.
I’ve Been Waiting to Smile by dls
Pairing: Tony Stark/T’Challa
Wakandans did not take kindly to outsiders, but sometimes exceptions were made for those who are truly extraordinary. Tony Stark was certainly one of those people.
