The concept of Steve Rogers returning 90 years later, finding out Howard had a son named Tony Stark, gets with that same Tony Stark as a way to 'replace' Howard to fill that hole in his heart because of how similar Tony is to HIS Stark from the 40s, and actually falling in love with him on the way, just for Tony to realize at the wrong time that Steve was only using him as a fill-in for his dad, and a messy, complicated breakup ensues.

I mean god forbid a man misses his boyfriend from the 40s and gets with his son after basically teleporting 90 years later because of unresolved feelings. I mean gosh can a man live?🙄🙄

bestie r u in my brain? I love angst like this.

I mean he's a man out of time, everything is unfamiliar—and then this piece of Howard comes waltzing into his life? And they're both flaming bisexual sarcastic geniuses??? with spiffy suits and sexy facial hair?? yeah Captain Rogers is gonna indulge in that ass. He doesn't even feel bad about it at first because Tony is annoying, and rude, and constantly on his nerves. Then it becomes less about sex, and their partnership on the team grows, and suddenly Steve Rogers is in love again.

He really should have suspected this, because Howard was too much at first as well. Instead of "Stark" he becomes "Tony", and he starts to admire all the special things that make him different from his dad. Then he stops comparing him to his dad constantly at all. Things are good, and happy, and then—

SHIELD files leak. Bucky comes back. All hell breaks loose. Somewhere in it all Steve's relationship with Howard is revealed and Tony immediately connects the dots. Steve doesn't even deny it, because yeah, he only got with Tony because he was still raw and aching after losing everybody—including Howard. And when he held Tony at night he could pretend it was still the 1940s and everything was okay.

Can a man live?!??? Can a homosexual beefcake LIVE?????

god forbid a dude dick down two of the most eligible bachelors and fall a little in love both times.

If anyone is interested, I've got a podbid going for a Steve/Howard fic idea in this year's Marvel Trumps hate, and would love if any other Steve/Howard lovers would like to join!

This is the prompt:

Sometime in the late ’40s, Howard Stark accidentally sends a copy of himself forward in time. Now that Howard has to adjust to the future (including the facts that his other self never stopped making weapons and was a lackluster at best father (bad) and that Steve Rogers is alive (good!)), Tony has to adjust to having a version of his dad around who’s 15 years younger than him and is thirsting after his teammate, and Steve has to adjust to having his wartime crush back in his life.

We're bidding on Dogsled to write the idea.

Info:

Marvel Trumps Hate is a fandom charity auction that has been running every October since 2018. Creators offer auctions, and bidders promise to donate to charity if they win.

A podbid is bidders pooling their money together in order to win a specific auction.

If you are interested in participating, just message me here on tumblr, or if we share any servers feel free to contact me on discord. I'm bulkyphrase pretty much everywhere.

Kinda tempted to write an absolutely devastating fic about a Steve Rogers who had a thing with Howard in the 40s and is now in a relationship with Tony and using him as a proxy for Tony’s dead dad. I hate myself.

lab rat steve: Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Steve Rogers, Howard Stark, Surgery, Gore

After the serum worked, Steve was given two choices - be sent up to a lab for testing, or become a show pony for the government.

This time, he gets sent to the lab, less than enthusiastic about it. He's even more miffed to find out Howard Stark is the lead researcher on his case, and Howards willing to do just about anything to get the information he wants.

Cue weird freaky science shit. and maybe weird freaky horny science shit. whatever floats your boat

Fic idea that I can't escape. Howard's not in it, but he's haunting the narrative like no one's business :

If Steve and Howard had hooked up during the war, his first thought in Avengers 1 when meeting Tony wouldn't have been "Why is this guy being such a dick to me?"—it would have been "Oh no he knows"

If Tony didn't actually know, it might have actually improved their relationship overall? Because instead of meeting Tony's hostility, he would have probably thought it was understandable and been more diplomatic with him. Meeting your dad's ex who is also 15 years younger than yourself? That's gotta be weird—Shield's pamphlets told him everyone was cool with homosexuality now, but no one is that open-minded.

Plus the sheer social awkwardness of the whole situation might have distracted Steve from some of his overwhelming sadness.

When would the truth be revealed? You could always have a story where they figure out their miscommunication pretty quickly, but I think it would also be very funny if it took years and years for it to come out. Because Steve wouldn’t want to talk about it and would assume Tony also didn’t want to talk (or even think) about it, and it would never in a million years occur to Tony to ask if Steve and Howard hooked up.

That’s assuming it’s not a Stony story, anyway. I think Steve would feel like they had to talk about what he thought was the elephant in the room before they started a relationship.

Best (funniest) time is maybe during their conference room argument in Civil War:

Tony: Dad was a pain in the ass, but he and Mom always made it work. Steve: Yeah, I know you don't like to think about Howard and I being together, but even when he was a handful it was worth it. I'm sure you can find that balance with Pepper. Tony: 👀 you and howard were what

I'm not sure what happens after that, but I'm pretty sure it changes the course of the movie.

Stoward for the ship bingo?

real catfa and agent carter watchers know that howard stark was unrequitedly in love with steve rogers

[bulkyphrase]

STOWARD FOR SHIP BINGO (did i beat cassie?)

You did beat her by a couple minutes! 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for the ask!

I’m a hardcore Stoward shipper in the sense that Howard Stark being in love with Steve Rogers is very important to me. I consider it canon (and not just in a delusional way! It’s the most reasonable interpretation!)

There is something about the dynamic of

A genuinely sort of problematic person

Who hates themself

Meets someone who is everything they wish they were

And instead of being envious and bitter and resenting them

Falls in love instantly

that gets me every time.

Steve reciprocating is fun but not essential—unrequited Stoward is also very compelling.
