fic: a winding road that stretches toward the truth
iron man | tony/rhodey | teen | 1595 | here on ao3
warnings: none
summary: Rhodey needs Tony to pretend to date him. Only once though. Definitely just once.
“Why do you need a date? Also, no offence, but why did you come to me? I stole, like, four of your girlfriends and at least two boyfriends, remember.”
Tony Stark was the master of stealing significant others. Or, well, he didn’t like to call it stealing. If an attractive person happened to prefer his company to their partner’s, and also preferred sticking their tongue in his mouth to anyone else’s, who was he to deny them?
“I do remember that, Tony,” said Jim, pinching the bridge of his nose. “No, I need you to come on a date with me.”

"Do you just want to move in?" Teddy looks up from where he lounges on Billy's floor, his boxers tugged to the point where they peek over the waistband of his jeans. His mouth doesn't drop or anything--he's been practically living here for the better part of a month anyway, because they'll never be able to manage to get things right on the first try.
"Are you sure you don't want to get married first?" Teddy's smile is winsome, and a dimple twinkles at an indent in his cheek. "I mean, moving in first is pretty heavy, yeah?"
Billy snickers, beckoning with an open hand that Teddy takes, sliding across the fake-wood floor on the seat of his jeans. "You're right. Do you want to marry me instead? And then after you say yes, you can move in."
"You seem pretty sure that I'd say yes," Teddy says, pushing himself up to flop down onto the sofa where Billy lays (pushing the air out of both of them in a whumph). "Like, ultrasure. That's arrogance talking, Kaplan."
"No, that's confidence." (Which is something Billy's always lacked, and his heart his thumping against his ribs so hard that Teddy has to feel that above him.) "But, anyway, you're ruining the moment. Teddy Altman, would you like to see the world with me in the form of cheesy-but-lovable comic strips? Would you be the Bam! to my Ka-Pow!?"
"Oh my God."
"The Vision to my Scarlet Witch?"
"Stop."
"The Gwen Stacy to my Peter Parker--"
Teddy laughs and Billy feels it deep inside his bones. "Why am I Gwen Stacy?"
"Because you're out of my league."
Teddy's laughter almost shakes them both from the sofa and his arms work their way underneath Billy's back to pull them as close together as they can get. (It's warm here. He loves it here. Billy loves it.) "Shut up, oh my God. Yes, I'll marry you."
There's a pause.
"So about moving in..."
Teddy kisses him. Billy can feel the yes in his teeth.
FAKE MARRIED AND/OR HANDCUFFED TOGETHER FOR CLINTCOULSON & bodyswap for clintkate who're both some form of trans ayyy lmao
- a universe in which clint & coulson are not secretly married is not something i believe exists, tragically, so im gonna go with handcuffed together B)
it happens in the middle of a mission (pre-avengers) & they dont have time to pick the lock so they just go through like two days handcuffed together, & it’s surprisingly ridiculously easy, because they’re basically joined at the hip anyway. the only time they run into any real problems is when they try to sleep, because clint is a v energetic sleeper & he almost dislocates phil’s shoulder accidentally. after that they sleep in shifts (still cuddling tho). which yes on the subject of cuddling; they use it as an excuse to cuddle all of the time & pretend to be really disgruntled about it but actually it’s /great/, theyre both ridiculous saps & cuddling is like one of their all-time favourite things & now they have an excuse to do it even in the middle of a mission, this is /great/.
& then the mission is over & they finally get the cuffs off & theyre almost sad about it because minus the limited range of movement that was actually pretty nice. & then they take a week’s leave & spend almost all of it cuddling. like nerds. basically theyre nerds.
- trans woman kate & agender afab clint! they wake up one morning in each other’s bodies & it’s the weirdest mix of not-dysphoria & intense dissociation anyone has ever experienced! kate bans clint from drinking because she knows what they’re like, she’s not having them get all the fun of drinking & her get all the horror of the hangover, they have no idea how long this will last for. clint spends a solid hour firing arrows & getting increasingly weirded out at the differences. they both take terrible selfies for blackmail purposes. & they totally make out, because of course they would, there is no situation in which they would not make out, magical weirdness or no magical weirdness. makeouts 5ever.
