Rhodey: You finally did it, didn’t you. You put roller skates on the armor.
Tony: They’re not skates. They’re…electro-static energy racers.Tony Stark, tiny nerd on wheels.

Whatever happens tomorrow, you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are.

a very cute, important friendship
today’s a lazy day
“Imagine Bucky as this very meek, silent presence when he first joins the team. Hydra had him trained to stay out of the way, to speak only when spoken to or when a mission required it, and the idea that he’s allowed to have actual conversational input is taking a while to sink in. So it’s not uncommon for him to go days at a time without uttering a word, and everyone just takes it in stride and does their best to let him know that he’s welcome to talk whenever he wants. It takes time, but gradually he starts to open up, volunteering his questions and opinions and disjointed little observations…
And god, his vocabulary is absolutely filthy.
It’s pretty obvious that he’s not trying to be aggressive or offensive. Bucky’s main source of social interaction for the last seventy years has been listening in on conversations between the various other soldiers, mercs and black ops guys who accompanied him on missions, so that’s who he parrots now as he learns how to speak for himself again. He can swear fluently in about a dozen different languages, and his repertoire of English vulgarities is enough to raise even Natasha’s worldly eyebrows.
“I’m gonna start a swear jar,” says Tony, kicking back on the couch as Bucky offers up his colourful interpretation of the evening’s news to the room at large. “Screw clean energy, clearly the real money is in swear jars now.”
“Hey, I can dig,” says Sam. “I’m learning some great new compound words here. And it’s not like he’s wrong about the mayor.”
It may not be deliberate, but it’s also not entirely unconscious. Bucky is perfectly capable of switching to perfect 1940s gentleman when he wants to: as far as the downstairs reception staff are concerned, he’s a boyscout. But when he’s relaxed, he always defaults back to talking like he’s in the trenches. Some jokes are made about the effect he must be having on the good Captain America, but Steve barely even blinks – it’s kind of like having his old STRIKE team back on site, if his STRIKE team were all to start talking through the same mouthpiece at the same time while under the misguided impression that Steve wasn’t really listening.”From imaginebucky

What are your fave post-cap2 stevetony fics? Xx
There aren’t very many, but a few do come to mind:
Favorable Winds by RurouniHime is probably the first post-Cap 2 fic I read that I really, really enjoyed. I love fics told from another person’s POV because we can see how an outsider feels about their relationship, and this was done beautifully. Also, she’s one of my favorite authors in the Steve/Tony fandom, so you should check other fics as well!
From the Past by sara_holmes is another fic that deals with Steve visiting Tony while looking for Bucky. Half of it is rough sex, but the other half is really sweet.
Iron Man: Director of S.W.O.R.D. by Pookaseraph is a long fic (about 75k) that quickly became one of my favorites. I loved it because the way she depicted the relationship between the two of them was very believable given the whole “oh crap, there’s no more SHIELD, what do we do about global security now?” situation.
Blueberry Waffles and Fireworks is much less serious than the others, and definitely more of a crack-y read, but still very enjoyable.
I also wrote I’m Ready to Lose (Everything but You) which deals with Tony coming to see Steve in the hospital right after the events of the movie.
I haven’t read the others yet, but I know for a fact that Iron Man: Director of SWORD is AMAZING. So if you like long, plotty awesomeness with slow burn, you should go read it.
