Do Steve and Bucky find out about all the things Obadiah told Tony about omegas?
Yes, they do! They find Sarah crying her eyes out and they’re horrified so they ask what happened because Sarah doesn’t cry unless it’s something really bad. They wonder why Tony had betas actively guarding his door during his heat (because when Sarah went into heat she just relaxed in her room, no guarding necessary), and she has always tried to avoid lying to her sons. So she has them sit down because if they stand they might fall. And then she halting tells them what Tony had told her, trying to keep the more personal bits to herself:
Tony believes that the scent of his heat is an invitation and he should hide himself from everyone. If he is smelled and someone forces themselves on him, it is his fault for not being more careful.(Steve and Bucky are horrified. No wonder Tony looked so frightened after they decided they’d wait until he was more comfortable with them physically. If they’d said yes, at least he would have been with alphas that liked him. And to think he’d feel it was his fault if he was attacked? Sickening.)
Sex is going to hurt. Always. Omegas were meant to handle pain; that’s why they give birth. It’s also meant to keep omegas submissive. If an alpha is being gentle to keep from hurting you, it means you’re not pleasuring them properly.(”What the fuck,” Bucky whispers, clutching his chest, because he’d fooled around with a few omegas before he and Steve married and he never wanted them to hurt. Steve puts his head between his knees and just breathes because he’s torn between rage and the want to cry.)
Wanting sex outside of a heat makes you a slut. Omegas were meant to be bred for heirs. If an alpha wants sex out of heat, that’s his/her right. An omega wanting sex out of heat is disgusting and indicative that they’ll bend over for anyone.(”What the fuck,” Bucky whispers again. “Oh my God,” Steve wheezes, because this–this poor omega, he thinks he’s only there to be a fucking–fucking broodmare. And that’s certainly not the case, Tony is an interesting person; to think that someone would consider him less or for nothing more than popping out kids makes him angry.)
Omegas don’t orgasm because they’re only for breeding.(”That’s not even true!” Bucky cries, and then covers his face and takes a deep breath. Steve reaches out to touch his shoulder but Bucky just jerks away, needing a moment to gather himself.)
Omegas that masturbate are not good omegas. Their bodies belong to their alphas. Omegas are property.(”He’s not–fucking chattel,” Steve snarls, because Tony’s not, he’s a person, he gets a say in what he gets to do to his body. Bucky takes another deep breath.)
Omegas are meant to bend over for the alphas at all times.(”No, no, no,” Bucky whispers, horrified. “Why,” Steve says, angry, then growls. “Who would. Why would they make him think. He’s a person.”)
Omegas are trophies. Having hobbies and interests that aren’t reading or needlepoint is frowned upon.(“He… he does needlepoint?” Steve asks after a moment, and Sarah nods. “Not that there’s anything wrong with needlepoint,” Bucky adds hurriedly. “I suggested that you might teach him some fencing. And how to ride a horse without being in a side-saddle. He seemed quite enthused by the idea,” Sarah adds. They look at each other, then back to her and nod sharply. Tony can learn whatever hobby he wants. He could learn to weave baskets if that’s what he’d like to do and Steve and Bucky would support him.)
