Summary
Nick Fury hates his job as an animal conservationist. He did not sign up to see a tiny deer and crippled jaguar go at it like it's mating season in the Serengeti.
Deer!Tony and Jaguar!Stephen pretty much makes Nick Fury's life hell.

Animal Planet by hitokiridarkempressCh 14
Lol Wattpad inspired fic is funny too
https://www.wattpad.com/story/264945252-a-piglet-makes-three-
How the fuck that runt managed to get inside the enclosure without anyone knowing is a mystery. Even weirder is that the jaguar isn’t even trying to eat him. Eh, not his problem. If the jaguar decides to eat his ass, it’s what God intended. It’s only natural that predators eat their prey and who’s he to say otherwise?THAT IS NOT WHAT GOD INTENDED!
“YOU LEAVE THAT POOR DEER ALONE!”
He expected the jaguar to just eat his ass, not eating his ass out! But no, that stupid cat is licking and rubbing his damn face all over the deer’s rump. Just because he hated that deer, doesn’t mean the thing deserved to be violated like that. And Tony isn’t even trying to escape; he just lies there with his tongue hanging out. As soon as the jaguar sees him, that fucking thing is staring at him while lapping his tongue on the deer’s hind quarters just daring him to do something.
--
How the ever-loving fuck Tony managed to escape, and pick the damn lock to the restricted space is beyond anybody. But most importantly, he wants to stab his remaining eye out just so he doesn’t have to see the horrible sight that’s being burned into his retina.Stephen is mounted on top of the small little deer and just railing him like no tomorrow. Even worse is hearing how loud Tony is during mating. Fuck this shit, he’s heading to the nearest bar and get shit-faced. Let the caretakers handle it. And if researchers want to study this sick coupling, they can damn well pay for his retirement package.
Fuck his life.
--
Though somehow ending up becoming the “mother” of a small deer was not in the job description. Neither was becoming a lifelong “rival” of one mean ass jaguar who keeps trying to bite his ass whenever he shows up at the cat’s enclosure. But, somehow he’s making a decent living and he finds out that he doesn’t mind being the sole caretaker of one adult deer that for some unknown reason is still acting like a fawn.To be fair, Tony wasn’t weaned off before his herd kicked him out. And he was the only one Tony would feel safe to drink from the bottle. So yeah, he’s unofficially Tony’s mama. That and Tony keeps making the mom calls and never stopped.
--
With that, Tony instantly races towards the door as soon as he heard, “blueberries.” James is heading toward the door when suddenly Stephen pounced on Tony fully pinning him under his weight. Squeals are heard and James is about to call on his radio for backup thinking Stephen finally had enough of Tony.Only to see Stephen trying to mount Tony and staring straight at him while doing it.
‘This mother-’
Tranquilizing a jaguar never felt so satisfying.
"Come on Tony, let Stephen nap. Let's clean you up first and I got a smoothie for you."
The next day, Stephen is already scratching the glass once he sees Tony's head on James' lap. Mama Rhodes : 32 Mean Ass Jaguar: 0
--
Now he has to figure out which is worse: seeing a jaguar hump a deer or watching a deer give fellatio and trying to explain that to little kids?Fuck this shit, he ain’t drunk enough for this.
--
It was a 2 man team to separate the two, but in the end, man won.Was it really necessary for Wong to club Stephen unconscious? Probably not, but he had it coming.
--
James got an earful from Fury after it got caught on camera on how he shouldn’t be encouraging those nasty animals. The screenshot of one exasperated James holding up a bottle while Tony is suckling on it lying on a log with a jaguar firmly glued to his rump.The only silver lining is that the mean ass Jaguar finally gave up on trying attacking him whenever he shows up. The only downside is that the same mean ass jaguar is focused on humping while he’s coming in. James is already radioing Wong and fetching his trusty stick…
--
Well, it is getting real hot and the animals can’t take the sweltering heat. But he knows Fury wouldn’t construct a small pool for the deer, “it’s not the part of his natural habitat.”Bitch, please. The zoo has a gay jaguar and deer couple, and the deer runs the zoo; they ain’t fooling nobody.
One inflatable kiddie pool wouldn’t hurt.
--
When James returned to Tony’s enclosure, he stares at Stephen glaring at him while humping Tony in the kiddie pool.
--
“MOTHERFUCKER! RHODES, DROP THAT DEER! I DON’T NEED TO SEE THAT! SOMEBODY SNIP THAT DAMN CAT! WONG, YOU’RE CLEANING THE GLASS!”

Souls in Bloom by silver_dripIron Family: Maria, Edwin, Ana, Janet, Rhodney, Roberta, Star, Terrence, Jarvis, Leo
Unknown: Stephen, Tao, Asgard/Loki/Odin
No: Howard, Sunset, Tiberius, Obadiah, Thor, PeggyMhmm time to reread this, I believe (so long as I didn't reread it and forgot to add it to the doc) I read it back in 2021?
So I vaguely remember details but not muchLol. Tony just knows™ Stephen will have an Infinity Stone, aka Time. I am curious that he said Stephen will be like him, does it mean he'll also have an Infinity Stone like in canon, or he'll be like Tony here where the Soul Stone and him are one?
Anyways, for now won't marked Liked Stephen, their interactions aren't enough for thatJanet is 5 years older than Tony (he's 5 when she's 10)
I think Stephen is 6 years older than Tony, so long as Tao's pov is from the same year
Rhodney is 3 years older than Tony (19 when Tony is 16), and his sister is 1 year younger (15 when he's 16)Sunset I believe is the same age as Janet
Tiberius is 5 year older than Tony (13 when Tony is 8)When Tony is 15 and Obadiah tries to weasel into Tony's life (and fails), he decides to remove Jarvis. Aka got him murdered.
After the funeral, the Tesseract, which Howard told no one about, disappears. I assume Tony took his sibling (shrug even if he doesn't view the Stones as siblings, I will refer to them as such due to me being used to it from the few other fics of Tony as Soul)
Yup, he's got Space and can use it. It's nice he has a confident in JanetAna :) :(
I'm worried her moving to be close to Tony in MIT might mean she'll become a target herself to Obadiah
Oh precious. Tony helping her find people to be around, easing the hole Edwin left in her heartOh? Author named Rhodney's sister Star, afaik her canon name is Jeanette
Wait whut, is she Star or not? Their mom called her JeannetteAna can see Tony's aura I guess? She sees him glowing orange, was able to since day one. Hidden magic prob, as Tao was the only one to see it as well
Rip Sunset, corrupted
Tony sees colors in ppl, which tells him stuff about them. Their soul
Has some influence on emotions I think? Janet and Rhodney feel his love when he hugs them
Syncing up with souls is smth? Idk didn't rly get it
Oo, can imbue others with powers. Makes it so Janet can use the Space Stone by herself, linking her soul to it, similarly to how his soul is linked to Soul
Soul imprints have been teaching Tony all his lifeIt is interesting, seems like having the Stones allows Tony to borrow their power? His aura shows blue because of Space, as do his eyes instead of Golden sometimes
He's planning on collecting the others, Time he's leaving alone and Mind is currently blurred to him, but Reality and Power are 'easy' grabs
Reality caused trouble tho, energy spike. Asgard and the Dark Elves fightingFucking Obadiah. Side note, bastard is Hydra. And he got Ana murdered too :/ Tony is 18-19 when that happens
Immediately after the funeral, Obadiah sets Tony up, faking him trying to kill himself & sending him to a psych ward. Tony convinces the doctor to not corrupt himselfMhm the fallout of the mini war was smth I remember, as in I remembered it going bad with one of Tony's friends. Did not remember it was to the point Janet asked to be unlinked from Space & leaving for a while
So now he has both Space and Reality (and is Soul)
Snap of green, older Tony, Time? Awesome
Stopped Tony from killing Barnes (Tony and Maria in the 'crash' here), and took him away? I doubt to the future thoYay fuck off Howard, and hopefully Maria and Tony getting close
She knows of his nature or at least his powers nowJarvis wants a body, and wants to link up with Reality
Hello Leo
Yay divorce
Sigh Rhodney. I get it but still. At least this mess results with Janet linking with Space again
And was what and aeh

Summary
Emotions are a lot harder to hide and control when it's a five-year-old feeling them.

Young Again by silver_dripKinda love this one.
-
“Friday might go homicidal on us,” Sam whispered to Natasha, hoping Friday couldn’t hear him.“Nonsense. Friday is a delightful girl,” Vision said while entering the living room.
Steve was snuggled up against Natasha, not wanting to sleep alone in a new place.
“Being a delightful girl never stopped me from killing. It actually made it easier. No one expects a little girl to be an assassin.” Natasha was threading her fingers through Steve’s hair.
“I have no current plans to kill you all.” That was of little assurance.
“What about plans on killing everyone in this room, but Vision?” Natasha asked, picking up on Friday’s wording.
“Would you like me to lie to you, Ms. Romanov?” Friday’s voice was almost bubbly, making her somehow sound sinister.
“I assure you all that you are safe in Stark Manor,” Vision said, a hint of a smile on his face.
“And outside of the manor?” Natasha gave Vision a penetrating look.
“Friday is truly a delight.” Vision said nothing more as he left the room.
--
“I don’t know how to handle him,” Sam said into the phone.“And you think I do?” Rhodey snorted.
“You’re the one who has the most experience with him.”
“With sixteen-year-old, angry, wild Tony Stark. Not five-year-old, sugar high, Tony Stark.”
“He’s got himself a new best friend.”
There was a pause on the other end of the line.
“I’ll be right over.”
--
“Damn, you’re shorter than usual,” Rhodey said and Tony squawked.“Who are you?” Loki asked, pulling Tony into his arms.
“I’m Rhodey, the one who pulled Tony’s ass out of trouble since he was a scrawny sixteen-year-old.” Rhodey grinned down at Loki. “I’m also his best friend.”
Loki held Tony closer.
“No, Loki is my best friend, but…” Tony pursed his lips, pouting, “seeing you makes me happy.” Loki rested his chin on Tony’s shoulder, his eyes becoming dull. Tony seemed to sense the change. “You’re still my number one, Loki-Dokey.”
“You’re my number one too!” Loki squeezed Tony and lifted him up. Tony squirmed and Loki laughed.
“I hear you two have been making trouble.”
“My house, my rules.” Tony stuck his tongue out at Rhodey and Sam who was standing behind him.
“Exactly.” Tony looked up at him in surprise and Sam groaned. “I’m just here to scoop you up if your ass gets into the fire. If Loki is your friend, then he also falls under my protection.”
“We do not need your protection.” Loki glared at Rhodey.
“So you’re aware that Black Widow is still lurking around your house?”
Loki’s face turned red with embarrassment.
“Friday?” Tony asked, his eyes narrowed.
“Widening search.” There was a pause. “Natasha Romanov has been spotted in the southern gardens. Your orders?”
“You said you are on my side?” Tony asked, raising an eyebrow skeptically.
--
“They could also just leave Steve and Wanda here, but that would be inadvisable,” Friday added.Sam was scowling.
“Looks like you two got your underhanded methods from Tony.”
“Don’t diss our ‘methods’. We’re just trying to resolve this nonviolently. You asked for my help and I’m giving it.” Rhodey looked cocky.
“I meant convincing Tony to let Natasha stay.”
“Friday said Tony has his emotions, but not his memories. He feels that she hurt him, but he doesn’t have the memories on why he should tolerate that pain.”
“Stop talking about me like I’m not around,” Tony said in a whining voice. Rhodey smiled at him. Tony turned to Sam. “Chop-chop, Sammy, what’s your decision?”
“I’ll get Natasha to leave the property, but I can’t make her go beyond that.”
“So long as she doesn’t come back.” Tony gave him a hard look before grinning. “Come on, Loki! I want to show you a Disney movie!”
--
He’d fallen asleep as a kid and had woken up as an adult. Aches in his body that he hadn’t even known he had became apparent. Old age was a bitch on his joints.A huff came from beside him. Tony glanced over. Loki was looking at him with drowsy eyes. He was naked.
Their clothes had been ripped when Tony and Loki reverted back to their normal sizes.
Loki’s eyes widened as he sat up. He pulled the bedsheet around him to create a semblance of modesty. He looked frozen in his spot.
Tony grinned.
--
“We were friends,” Tony said and Loki seemed to crumble at the use of the past tense, “we are best friends, and I hope we can be more than that eventually.” Tony took Loki hand into his own. “I want to see where this takes us.” Tony kissed Loki’s palm. “If that’s alright with you?”

give our hearts some weight by tedlosCh 8
Confusing start but looks interesting
The kid Stephen interacts with in the plane of existence with the One Above All has to be Tony, right?
Also, 'you deserve peace as much as the other guy', is that a reference to Tony? That the One Above All might have made the same offer to Tony, who refused it?
Oh! He did not refuse it :DI mean it sucks he's back in the cave, 2008. I wonder how much longer than Stephen he's been back/aware? Definitely a few months as when Stephen finally knows everything for sure, Tony comes to him, so after the kidnapping. But there was a mention about him having the blackouts for several months, so maybe that long? Idk
Oh my, so he's been back before the kidnapping? Wonder how long. Regardless, he's been back for longer, changed things. Kidnapping went differently. It might be that he still only woke up in the cave, yet this is a different version of the universe, things went differently. Idk
I wanna know how long he's been back, confirmation it's a while and not woke up in the cave. Stepped back from weapon manufacturing, kidnapped in Vegas instead of Afghanistan
I think before he was 21 minimum. Is it just form birth? Seems like maybe actually from when his parents died, so 17 yo?
Yuppers, exact day they die if we're being.. uh. Brain is blanking at the word. I know what I meant
Yeye like Stephen, headaches/blackouts months before truly waking up. His awakening was much worse than Stephen's, I wonder why
What's really interesting, similarly to (one) of gravel's amazing fics, Tony regains his memories of the future that was the same day his parents are supposed to die, collapses for one reason or another, ends up in the hospital, Maria remains and Howard's still dies. I wonder if they were inspired by that fic too, I mean they mentioned they were by all time travel fics in the fandom
:o
This version of Tony was given the Favor of the Infinity Stones. I really liked the start of ch 5, interesting pov s/detailsThis fic is fun
-
“To quote one of the greatest characters in television history, ‘You have an entire oak tree shoved up your ass’.”Wong is sure Mordo is going to smite the genius with his righteous anger not even masked from his face. And the sorcerer barely contains the laugh that bubbles up in his throat.
“That’s me saying you’re an asshole by the way.”
“You’ve made that perfectly clear.”
“Good. ‘Cause we’re friends now.”
Mordo looks conflicted between stabbing the man and thinking he was the most stupidly brave human to ever walk the earth. He may very well just faint. It makes Wong laugh (giggle) harder.
“I know you’re there Wong!”
If Wong escapes via a portal, it is between him and the heavens (and the ancient one). And if the unlikely pair was seen for the next few weeks settling their differences in hand-to-hand combat, Tony at par with Mordo’s skills and the sorcerer mentoring the genius, well... Novices were intimidated and in awe. Wong expected as much since nobody ever dared to call Mordo an asshole to his face.
-Won't deny the back and forth timeline wise is confusing for me, but I can see why writing a time travel fic is easier this way
