AUTHOR: makeyamad
ARTIST: chaosdraws
PAIRINGS: James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
RATING: Teen and Up
WARNINGS: None
SUMMARY: What if Bucky broke through his programming on December 16, 1991? What if Tony got to grow up with one of his childhood heroes who challenges him on a visceral level, constantly pushing him to change his own destiny and makes his heart beat like a hummingbird? What if Steve woke up to a world too bright and a best friend whose past cast red tinged shadows that threatened to swallow him whole, yet managed to smile for Steve? What would Steve make of Tony, his best friend’s guiding light , who looked at Steve with equal parts admiration and resentment?
And who the hell invited Thanos to the party anyway?
TITLE: The path beneath your feet

PAIRINGS: James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
RATING: Teen And Up Audiences
WARNINGS: None
SUMMARY: A Star fell, and in its wake, Soulmarks appeared.
Smaller than a person’s palm, centered over their sternum, and a greater risk than when the Stars gave mankind Guilt, the Marks were to be Humanity’s eternal guides. The gift gave the Stars a way to direct their children. The Stars would watch, and wait to see what a person needed in their life. They waited to see what would bring them the greatest joy, then they could give them a token to find that path and keep them true.
***
All three share a Mark.
But Steve and Bucky have each other.
And Tony has Iron Man.
Title: If Only
Author: Wix
Artist: RsCreighton
Pairings: Steve/Tony/Bucky, WinterIronShield
Rating: T
Warnings: References to past torture and mind control.
Summary:
The Avengers have tracked down the Winter Soldier and brought him into the fold, but Bucky isn’t really back yet and Steve’s hurting from the distance between him and his first love - and then there’s the whole thing with Tony.
It’s okay though, they’ll figure it all out…probably.

TITLE: The Revenge
AUTHOR: Riverlander974

PAIRINGS: James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
RATING: Teen
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY:
“Hello. My name is Anthony Stark. You killed my family. Prepare to die.”
Heroes, Giants, Pirates, Villains, Revenge and True Love.
You know this story. Mostly.
A ‘Princess Bride’ AU.
TITLE: Scientific Heresy
AUTHOR: antigrav_vector
ARTIST: Riverlander974
PAIRINGS: one-sided unrequited Margaret “Peggy” Carter/Steve Rogers, James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers, Tony Stark/Steve Rogers, Tony Stark/James “Bucky” Barnes, Tony Stark/James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers
RATING: M (violence)
WARNINGS: Alternate Universe, Canon-Typical Violence, Time Travel, Mission Fic, ignores all MCU canon after IM2, inaccurate history
SUMMARY: In the process of running the particle accelerator in his basement and save the day, Tony finds himself flung into the past where he has to take on a fight not his own if he wants to get home to stop Vanko. At least he had a chance to replace the old rector that had been killing him with the new one before everything went sideways… But now he has no choice but to face off with family, friends, and old heroes, and none of that sounds remotely appealing. Well, okay, getting to meet them all during their glory days kinda does.
But as it turns out, they’re not exactly what he imagined, and his path home is a lot longer than he’d hoped it would be.
And a lot more complicated.
A/N: Art will be posting piece by piece as the chapters go up, because otherwise there would be some spoilers. It will be embedded in the fic, too, so don’t worry, you won’t miss any. But don’t forget to go reblog and heap some love on the (ridiculously many!) lovely things River drew!

PAIRINGS: Steve Rogers/Tony Stark, Steve Rogers/James “Bucky” Barnes, James “Bucky” Barnes/Tony Stark, James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
RATING: Teen
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY: It had been years since Steve last saw Bucky, and when his old friend suddenly appears back in town, he’s ready to do what he can to help him, even if that means saying yes to a date.
There’s a problem, though.
Steve’s already in a relationship.
TITLE: sing (like there’s nobody listening)
AUTHOR: Daecyan_Shikoba
ARTIST: massivespacewren
PAIRINGS: Steve/Tony/Bucky, established Steve/Bucky
RATING: Teen
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY: Steve sends Bucky a link to a song that changes more than either of them could ever expect. Tony, head of a brand new prosthetic research team, meanwhile, has a decision to make: reveal his identity as Iron Man and risk alienating Bucky and Steve, or remain a mystery to Bucky, Steve, and the internet at large. The feelings Tony has for both men doesn’t make the choice any easier. All Steve and Bucky want is to take Tony on a date, if he’ll have them.
TITLE: Imagine You and You (and You) and Me
AUTHOR: RomancebyFaye
ARTISTS: novarain01 and empty-crayon-box
PAIRINGS: James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
RATING: Teen (for now)
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY: Steve and Bucky both have two soulmates. When Bucky falls, Steve goes into the ice not long after. He wakes up decades in the future and has a rough introduction to his other soulmate, Tony Stark.
Neither man seem too enthused about the revelation, and Steve is slightly surprised when Tony makes no demands of him or even uncovers his soulwords. Turns out, Stark doesn’t think too highly of soulbonds. Still, they manage to work together and Steve comes to realize he might have misjudged Tony.
He’s working up the nerve to try and make this more than a friendship when Bucky turns out to be alive. And not quite alone.
Or, Steve is jealous of cuddles and bed sharing, Tony has no expectations of his soulmates because his soulwords are extra crappy, Bucky is sharing his psyche with the Asset, and all of them are on a converging path to falling in love.
A/N: Possible Smut to be added later. This would change rating to Explicit.
TITLE: The Best of You
AUTHOR: Menatiera

PAIRINGS: James “Bucky” Barnes/Tony Stark, Steve Rogers/Tony Stark, James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers, James “Bucky” Barnes/Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
RATING: Teen And Up Audiences
WARNINGS: Graphic Depictions Of Violence
SUMMARY: Tony (genius, billionaire, superhero) and James (former WWII hero, former Winter Soldier, former Bucky Barnes) are figuring out their relationship. No, really, they’re doing great, after all the landmines are behind them. If they survived kidnappings, SHIELD at their backyard, revelations of past and all that jazz, what could possibly stand between them?
Enter Steve Rogers, AKA Captain America. And things, of course, go sideways immediately.
Tony is not entirely ready to face Daddy’s Dearest, his childhood crush. James is not at all ready to have his blond boy from the memories back.
They don’t have a choice.
And on top of this, Steve, freshly defrosted and doing his best to adjust to the new century with both loves of his life gone, has his own problems. Including but not limited to an intelligence organization full of overexcited people, an alien army coming from the sky through some magic-bullshit-science portal and a genius chaperoning him around - whom he might be falling for.
A/N: This is a sequel of Still Alive, but rest assured, it can be read as a standalone. Chapters will be posted every day.

SUMMARY: “So you know that one artist who’s a total recluse and never does interviews or anything? Rogers? Well, someone found some of his old artwork that he didn’t want people to see, and it’s going to be showcased in this fancy gala. So for… reasons I have to go and steal the art before the gala.”
“I’ll help.” Tony said immediately.
Bucky twisted around in his lap to get a good look at his face. “What? Really?”
Tony nodded furiously. “I’m with you all the way, what time is this heist going down, I’ll clear my calendar. Though I would like to know how you know Rogers when the man’s so reclusive no one even knows what he looks like.”
Bucky squinted at him. “That was seriously the worst explanation I’ve ever given you, but you’re going to agree just like that?”
“Yep.”

RATING: Explicit
WARNINGS: None
SUMMARY: Tony had always expected that his awful kink would never be brought up to his alphas. It had ended more relationships than it had helped. But when Steve and Bucky find out about it, they’re… supportive? Tony has no idea what he did to deserve these two alphas that are willing to indulge his kink but he’s glad. Of course, they have a few kinks of their own that they’re willing to divulge now too.

Ah the joy of small town living…
Tony gets a second chance he wants no part of. Steve traipses the globe to forget the one who got away. And Bucky is like, a mile out of crazy town. It’s all good.(Rhodey would like these boys to get their shit together and be done with it so that he could moon over his crush in peace. Is it too much to ask?) Let’s not forget the return of the ex from hell.
No wonder Austen loved her small town stories. So much drama, amiright?

Summary: Wanted: Mechanic for car workshop, no experience needed. First six months only room and board, later payment in accordance with services rendered. No smoking, no pets. Start asap.
When Tony sees the ad he packs his bags and runs away from his small town home all the way to New York. A place where he can hide that he’s the only heir to the Stark fortune. Where no one calls him names or hits him for being too smart, not smart enough, too gay.
What he finds is a mechanic who might be as damaged as he is and a blond spitfire who tries so hard, but who can’t seem to find the right buttons to help heal his friend. Somehow they connect, and somewhere along the line Tony feels like maybe it’s possible for him to build a home, if not for that nagging fear of his past catching up with him.

SUMMARY: Tony Stark and Pepper Potts are American theatre royalty. Their success as a producer/director duo is unmatched, especially when paired with the creative genius of Bucky Barnes. The three of them have proven an unstoppable force, but a messy falling out between Bucky and Tony has kept them from collaborating again. When Bucky needs the perfect team to bring his rendition of The Great Gatsby to life, he tries to set aside old drama to recreate the magic, but it might take Broadway newcomer Steve Rogers to step into the lead role and bring them together again.

SUMMARY: “I don’t like this,” Steve mutters to him, as he shifts awkwardly on his feet in the lounge of Tony Stark’s absurdly large Malibu mansion.
Bucky sighs and resists the urge to roll his eyes. This isn’t the first time (and it certainly won’t be the last) that Steve has expressed that very sentiment, and while Bucky also recognises the futility and drawbacks to this particular job, it’s a job, it’s their job and it puts money in their bank account, which is something that Bucky won’t turn his back to.
“I just don’t understand why someone like Tony Stark needs a bodyguard,” Steve complains, quietly. “Some spoilt little rich boy, so full of himself that he thinks the whole world is out to get him?”
“Shut up, or you’re going to get us fired,” Bucky hisses.
Steve shakes his head. “All I’m saying is that I don’t want to have to spend the foreseeable future looking after some dolled-up, greedy prep school reject.”
Or, alternatively, five times that Tony Stark surprised Steve and Bucky, and one time they didn’t really care.

SUMMARY: Bucky is one of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s best-specialized snipers and is only called for the difficult missions. He has numerous kills under his belt and has helped stop more terrorist attacks than he can count. However, that’s just his “night” job. Usually, you can find him taking care of his plants in his small NYC shop; all he really wants is a normal life.
Then he meets Tony Stark, namesake of Stark Industries, for a job. That also leads to meeting Steve, a hot firefighter. Sparks soon fly between the three of them.

Tony, who was not in a good relationship with his parents for the past few years, drops everything to see himself what exactly happened and finds proof that one of the crew members, Bucky, could still be alive. If it’s true, why is he hiding the fact he survived and did it have something to do with Starks death? Tony visits his father’s friend, Steve, who appears to know Bucky for a long time. In the meantime, Bucky regains his strength and wants to repay people who saved him, by finding the artifact Starks were after, as they seem oddly interested in possessing it.

WARNINGS: Major/Temporary Character Death
SUMMARY: It’s been nearly five decades since the fight with Thanos. Bucky has taken the mantle of Captain America once Sam retired, and leads the current team of Avengers. Twenty-five year-old Grant Bishop-Chavez is a popular fan artist who makes his living off Avengers art, though he favors Bucky, Tony and Steve art the most. Twenty-three year-old Mark Kim is a young mechanic who spends nearly half his income commissioning Grant because every time he sees a piece of his art, he feels like Grant is painting his dreams. Once they realize they both live in New York City, they become fast friends, nearly inseparable. One fateful day, Bucky’s path crosses the young men’s path and feels like he’s seen ghosts from his past.
