Box of Scraps

by Deleted_Dreamer

When Tony Stark ended up getting blasted out of his world, he wasn't exactly sure what was in his future. After all, the new world already had a Tony Stark of its own, and an Iron Man.

In Every Timeline

by KiraStrange

“What was that?”Peter’s eyes went wide.“Wait…you felt that?”He asked quickly, getting an eager nod from the little girl.“Yeah. It’s been happening for a while.

Unstable Orbit

by WaterproofDragon_Earbuds

Tony Stark is fine. Mostly. Sure, he hasn’t slept properly since flying a nuke through a wormhole. Sure, SHIELD dumped Loki in Stark Tower like that was a normal thing to do.

Brain Surgery and Rocket Science

by LadyLustful

Tony Stark thinks falling in love happens to other people, he's surrounded by boring, mediocre minds and content with casual sex.And then he hears a neurosurgeon speaking with a passion and brilliance to match his own.   Rated for Tony being non-explicitly promiscuous, I erred on the side of caution

In the Tau Ceti System

by FlightSporadic

When the crew for the Hail Mary mission was being selected, it was a no-brainer that Tony Stark was the best possible option for the engineer. He’d been involved in the ship’s design, so he was already familiar with it, and everyone knew he was good at improvised engineering in difficult situations.
