Summary
Pure Peter and Morgan fluff and emotional hurt!comfort.
~~~~~
A few minutes later, Peter felt a slight hiccuping inhalation from Morgan, and she tilted her head back to look at him again, those eyes, huge and brown and *so* much like Tony's it almost hurt the teenager to look into them.
"Uh-uh. That's Daddy's chair. He won't let Uncle Rhodey sit in his chair, he teases him and tells him it's not for plate-pusses. I don't know what a plate puss is, so maybe I'm one, too. Daddy and I always sit in his chair when he reads me stories. I don't know if we can sit in his chair...with-without---" And Morgan was once again wailing into his shirt.
~~~~~
Tony is still in the hospital post Endgame, and Peter has recently come to live at the cabin. Morgan needs comforting in a world that has gone sideways. She knows exactly what Spiderling to seek out for help.

Summary
"Anthony Edward Stark! Why are you--WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Pepper exclaimed, seeing Tony standing on a chair, his reading glasses glasses crooked and only halfway on, Peter wearing his Spider Man Suit and hanging upside down from the ceiling, and Harley decked out in old Iron Man boots and gauntlets.
All three of them looked...hideously guilty.
- Just a silly little one-shot of the trouble the Stark-Keener-Parker family can get up to in an evening. Some mild mentions of Tony Whump, but mostly just fun and comfort.
I needed a break from the angst! The CONTINUOUS TORTURE OF ADULTING. ARGHHHHHHH!

The Dilly-Verse aka Tony Stark Cat Dad by Merlynnod
Fandom Iron Man (Movies), Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Avengers (Marvel Movies)
29 Jun 2026
Summary
This series is where Tony ends up with two cats, Dilly and Phil, and the man becomes a complete and total...CAT DAD.
Mostly humor and fluff, with a some crack and angst for spice.I know from personal experience, that I am absolute *shite* with other humans, but by God I am amazing with animals. I think a lot of people with crappy childhoods end up like this...Humans can't be trusted not to hurt you, but animals are always dependable.
So, we end up with all this pent-up care and affection and LOVE that we're afraid to give to the people around us, but we *lavish* on animals.Due to "Howard Stark's A+ Parenting" (love that tag, by the way!), I think Tony would be in a similar state. I think it's already present even in the MCU canon with the 'bots. He built the family he needed.
I adopted mine. ;)
(One of whom is currently laying on my foot, because there is a summer thunderstorm outside, and she needs the comfort of closeness. And good God, I could not possibly love her any more than I do without exploding.) ;)- Words:

Summary
Series of One-Shots and Character Studies from a variety of perspectives. Some may align with MCU canon, others may deviate into the Endgame Revisted Universe. If they deviate, I'll put in a note at the beginning.
These are pretty angsty, and are basically where we all remember that once upon a time, I was an english major. ;)

Endgame Homecoming by Merlynnod

26 Jun 2026
Summary
Fix-It fic universe where, most importantly, TONY LIVES.
This series starts immediately post End-Game, with Tony in a medically induced coma while they try to see if they can save him.The stories proceed from there.
There is a crap ton of angst and TONY WHUMP, but lots of fluff and hurt-comfort, too. Also, occasionally I have way too much caffeine (decaf earl gray is an abomination unto God...I stand by my statement) and no sleep for, like, three days, and I get somewhat...It ends with -anic and starts with an M...And we get crack!fic. ;)
There is far more than enough pain and sadness in a life, if I can write "happy endings" (Good lord is THAT a lie, lol, this series has more than it's fair share of angst, but the fluff balances, lol!), then I'm going to do it. :)

Summary
There were still a few things left in life that were beyond Tony’s understanding. Black holes, the Zodiac murders, people who own chihuahuas …
But this ‘parenting Peter Parker’-thing, he had it figured out to a tee. It was mostly all about nodding or shaking your head at the right moments, and using turtle videos as a strange sort of reward system. And if anything backfired; letting Pepper take the fall.
But he had a nagging feeling that Pepper’s parents coming to town was going to seriously mess up his mojo.

Summary
Tony’s eye is drawn to one candidate in particular. A kid wearing a suit he looks so uncomfortable in that it’s shooting straight past comical to just heartbreakingly endearing. Chewing on the nail of his thumb, his knee bobbing up and down. Drops his pen, and then drops his clipboard when he bends down to pick up the pen.
“Call him in first.”

Or: Pepper is interviewing potential new interns, each one looking more nervous than the last. Including one pale but determined kid named Peter Parker. What he has to say is not at all what Tony had expected.
Spoiler alert: the kid doesn’t get the job.Series

Summary
“So here’s the deal,” Tony says. “Here’s what’s rumbling in the back of my mind. That bookstore we just came from, I knew the previous owner. Her name was Mary. I got her knocked up, and then waved all my parental rights while the bun was still firmly in the oven. Didn’t even take a peek in the oven. Never saw her again, never saw the kid. Don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl.”
“Say all that again,” Harley says, “but slowly, and using way more words.”

Summary
Dr. Strange looks at the world after Thanos and, faced with its seemingly irreparable brokenness, breaks his own oath. Tony, Stephen, and Loki go back in time for one more chance - an intentional choice, because they are each other's insurance against repeating the same mistakes. Tony wakes up shortly before the Stark Expo with the reactor's palladium core still poisoning him. Stephen wakes up with undamaged hands and a flourishing medical career. Loki wakes up in Asgard one day before Thor's coronation.
"Do I dare disturb the universe? / In a minute there is time / for decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse."
[ Yet another take on that time travel fic with lots of worldbuilding, hand-wavey comic book science, political intrigue, inventing, nerding out, and a broken Tony trying to fix a broken world - but this time he's not alone. ]
