i’ll ship tony with every single male…as long as he’s the bottom
and i know you guys agree with me—the man gives off some serious bottom energy ngl
he’s just a short lil’ bisexual who enjoys being dominated
(headcanons for a few ships below the break)
(few of them are a little. um. spicy.)
(you have been warned!)
ironstrange (my personal favourite):
okay so stephen can portal, right?
and he used to be a surgeon
so he can name bones
so what if he just like
randomly appears behind tony, touches his spine or neck, and murmurs the bone names softly in tony’s ear
tony’s driven insane by it, so much so that whenever he hears the whoosh of a portal opening, he blushes and shivers
(going to the sanctum with stephen was torture for the man and pure delight for the sorcerers)
stevextony (stony, my second favourite)
carrying.
all the carrying around.
steve picks up tony at random times.
doesn’t matter where he is, doesn’t matter who he’s with.
just “let’s go, tones”.
tony complains if they’re around people…but strangely enough melts into steve once they’re alone
steve asks for consent a lot, always wanting to make sure that tony’s okay with it.
ironwinter (tonyxbucky):
tony’s more playful here.
because when bucky gets tired of tony mouthing off?
oh, lord, he gets fierce
one time, tony was making snarky comments to bucky in front of the other avengers
bucky waited until tony had gone to the bathroom to get up
as soon as tony tried to leave the bathroom, bucky pounced on him
he got tony back into the bathroom, closing&locking the door and then proceeding to pin tony up against it
when they got out, half an hour later, tony was a lot more subdued…
science boyfriends (tonyxbruce):
(actually didn’t know this existed until i googled it, so here goes?)
bruce got the hulk back under control, yes…
but he tends to show up a bit more whenever he and tony are alone.
picking him up with one hand, pressing up against him, pushing him down into the bedsheets…yeah, tony’s really submissive with him
because if he’s not?
bruce always puts him back in his place
if he’s more hulkish, he’ll do it right then and there
if he’s more bruceish, though…that’s when tony is really scared
last time, bruce brewed a special batch of tea that made tony INCREDIBLY sensitive…for weeks.
bruce has had no problems with tony since.
thunderiron (thorxtony):
thor’s always using his hammer to keep tony down
trying to get up from bed too early? hammer on the chest.
trying to run from him to avoid kisses? hammer’s gonna spin out of his hand and shove tony back towards him.
if he’s in his iron man suit, wrestling with thor? thor’s gonna get this boy’s wrists above his head and place the hammer on them. boom. incapacitated.
thor also doesn’t quite understand humans yet, so when he finds out just how red tony turns when flustered…
touches on his neck in the middle of meetings makes tony stutter
touches on his back on the couch makes tony blush furiously
if they’re alone, tony will whine softly…if they’re around other people, tony has to cover his mouth to muffle himself.
starkquill (tonyxpeter!) (peter quill, not peter parker):
SARCASM.
all the sarcasm!
and dirty jokes are quill’s main attack
tony’s under the impression that both of them are equal in this relationship, but quill likes to remind him who belongs to who every now and again
rocket starts teasing tony a lot (“got any new marks?” “sore, pretty boy?” “i can get a wheelchair if you need one after last night!”) and tony just glares at him
of course, quill always comes up behind him while rocket’s teasing and discreetly brushes tony’s shirt collar to the side to reveal so many bruises and love bites that tony’s skin is practically one giant mark
“Ya know, it’s really creepy that cape of yours cuddles with Tony,” Bucky huffed at Strange.
“Cloak,” the doctor corrected, smirking as he watched his cloak glare at Steve who tried to cozy up on the couch next to the genius, “You’re just jealous that Tony likes me better than you and Rogers.”
The ex-assassin scoffed at that, “Ain’t nothin’ to be jealous of.”
“Beep beep! Outta my way,” Quill interjected, bumping his way pass the other two, “Here ya go StarDust.”
“Aw, thank you Peter,” the genuis smiled, sipping the hot coffee in his hand, humming “Just the way I like it hot.”
Not to be out done by the half-alien, “Do you need me to get you anything, Tony?“
“Unless it’s to allow me back into my lab, no Cap,” Tony gave him a hopeful smile.
It nearly broke the super soldier’s heart when he shook his head at the engineer’s request.
“You know I can’t allow that Tony,” the blonde regretfully told him, “You heard what your doctor and Banner said and you sure as heck know what Miss Pott’s would say if she knew you were trying to sneak off to work.“
Tony pouted at that, frustrated that he’d sidelined by Loki and some Doom bots.
“Hey doll, wanna take a look at my arm?” Bucky called out, purposely bumping the Sorcerer Supreme but paused. Did the cloak just hiss at him?
Just as Bucky was about to take the free spot beside Tony, boxing him in between himself and his best pal, T'challa swooped in.
“Here are the plans that you asked for, Anthony,” the young King offered passing the StarkPad to the brunet, “Shuri asked that you contact her as soon you are able to.”
“Thank her for me.” Tony snorted looking through the tablet, “Is this you?”
Tony turned the screen to the King, Bucky peered over his shoulder watching the younger man’s face morph to humiliation.
The ex assassin caught his friend’s eyes having a silent conversation while the young King grumbled about double checking his sister’s surveillance again.
“Aw, Your Pantherness was this your first time with this tech?” Quill teased, winking at Tony who rolled his eyes at the other man.
The dark man glared at him, “No,” he gritted out, he have to have another word with his younger sister, “It was merely a training accident.”
“Oh sure,” Strange commented from his spot in the living room, “What with you being new to the superhero world it must happen all the time.”
The engineer raised an eyebrow at that. Was it him or was there hostility within the group? Trying to diffuse the situation, “So what’s everybody’s plans for dinner?“
Cue four men shoving each other out of the way to head towards the kitchen, while Strange whirls a golden portal turns and winks at Tony before entering it.
There doesn’t even have to be an age difference. The plot is just fun enough that you really only need two characters who come from very different lives.
Person A, who’s awkward, socially isolated, and is practically (or is) a virgin.
Person B, who’s the polar opposite—confident, charming, and broke (but has a healthy sex life).
Person A’s parents (or friends) hire Person B to “date” Person A with the promise of a car or money or whatever fits the universe.
The story doesn’t even need to be about sex. Person B can also be hired to be Person A’s friend, in order to help them learn to socialize. :)
Person B falls in love with Person A and along the way, helps Person A gain confidence, etc.
Person A finds out about the deal. Angst ensues. 😱
They break up, make-up, the end! What’s not to like?
Take this as my cue to encourage you to watch the movie if you haven’t already!! It’s hilarious, lovable, and oh so fun!
Just discovered Starkquill pairing, now I can't help but imagine them sliding along the planet with their gadget as a date and the planet glow behide them (with Milano in the background with Rocket maintaining the ship and annoy by the fact that Tony gets to go for a date but Rocket has to work).
For the prompt: 'soulmate au where no one hears music until they fall in love'
“So you carry it around,” Gamora fingered the headset, black plastic creaking under her thumb, “even though you can’t hear it.”
“I’ll be able to.” When I fall in love. The kind of love that meant Mum was left to raise a child by herself for eight years, but kept on hearing music for the rest of her life. Music that made her dance in the kitchen, blare lyrics in the shower, hum softly in the hospital bed. Music and effect that Peter watched with widened eyes, but never heard.
So he carried the Walkman in his pocket, clamped on the headset every day. Hit play and saw the cassette spin, wondering what Come and Get Your Love might sound like.
It was only too bad that he’d hear Highway To Hell first.
I finished reading a fic a few days ago. It's a StarkQuill fic called 'When The Stars Come Calling' by @/lazywriter7 on AO3. And it was sooo good, like????
A well thought out story, in canon character work, great character development, feel-good heartwreching moments (THE ANGST!), fantastic writing and just about everything else that makes a story absolutely perfect!
StarkQuill (Tony Stark/Peter Quill, Iron Man/Star Lord) is definitely not a popular ship and honestly, I didn't see the appeal of it before I read this fic. I'm more of a Stony/WinterIron person. But if you want to just read a well-written fic with over 100k words and ANGST! and FLUFF! and badassery and genuine character movements etc etc etc, THEN THIS FIC IS FOR YOU.
