Pairing: Tony Stark/ Steve Rogers

Characters: Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Pepper Potts, James “Rhodey” Rhodes

Tags: Soulmates, Immortal Steve Rogers, Artist Steve Rogers, Tony Stark has Issues, Eventual Smut, Reincarnation, POV Tony Stark, Protective Steve Rogers, Howard Stark’s A+ Parenting, Angst with a Happy Ending, Insecure Tony Stark, Fanart, Reverse Big Bang Challenge, Alternate Universe- Modern: No Powers

Summary: Strange things, fairytales. Legends of mythical creatures, morals wrapped up in a whimsical narrative, curses and punishments bestowed on the unlucky few. Yet, one inevitable truth is that everyone finds their soulmate, the one they are destined to be with.

But Tony had seen what pain awaits soulmates, had learnt of its lessons straight from his mother’s lap. The constant tug and pull inside his chest to find his other half had been ignored for thirty years so far, he could ignore it for thirty more.

When he meets a mysterious artist named Steve Rogers, who tells him a story about a group of immortals called the Eternals, forced to watch their soulmates die over and over only to be reincarnated again and again, Tony finds himself inexplicably drawn to him.

‘You’ve been hurt…much more than I realized. God, Tony, I wish I’d found you sooner, that I could’ve protected you from all those who-’

‘Why did you find me, Steve?’ Tony asked, getting to his feet, feeling the ground lurch. ‘Because you’re the seventh reincarnation of my soulmate.’

If you want to find oneshots on AO3, you can either Search or Filter to do it.

To search, use the advanced form found by tapping Search in the menu at the top of the page and choosing Works from the dropdown (screenshot below)

(or by editing a basic search)

In the advanced search form, check off the box next to Single chapter (screenshot below)

To filter, scroll to the bottom of the Sort and Filter sidebar and find the box labelled Search Within Results (screenshot below)

In that box, type

expected_number_of_chapters:1

That filter works for any number of chapters you want, and you can also use greater than and less than symbols as well. For example:

expected_number_of_chapters >10

expected_number_of_chapters <5

I have oneshots. Lots of oneshots. Just sayin'.

I have a headcanon where the ghost of Tony Stark gets salty that he didn't get his own TV show.

Tony:- "What? *Reindeer Games* gets his own show but I don't? The OG Avenger, the best dressed, clearly the coolest, richest, best of them all?"

Kevin Feige:- "Well technically Captain America is the OG-"

Tony:- "Get back in the box, Kev, and think about what you've done. And while you're in there, write me my own goddamned show!"

Behold, my wonky #cushion cover. I made SO VERY MANY mistakes on this, but learned on awful lot:- 1. Measure like a boss 2. No really, measure and measure again 3. For the love of God make a pattern first 4. Test that pattern on paper 5. Piping is fun 6. Zips are not Most of the #machinesewing is ok. I had planned to hand sew the zip and wish now that I had done so. Because my panels aren't all same size, that caused a cascade of sizing issues throughout. (Lighting is bad but the accent colour is red, not orange.) #lockdowncraft #homemade https://www.instagram.com/p/COVzZNBLJ0s/?igshid=iej8mwyopdhp

First project with my new #sewingmachine ! #lockdowncraft Colour's not great because the battery was too low for the flash, and the stitching in places could be better... and the handles are not quite the same length... and it could do with being ironed... BUT... I am very pleased with it!!! It is a fully functioning and sturdy bag. https://www.instagram.com/p/CN7pyDlL9Mf/?igshid=1gn8omow6ubjv

Currents. Hey, two time travelers!

Oh. Oh this is a hard one. But fun! Thanks @atypical-snowman first fictional crush

I had such a crush on him as a kid!! 

Current fictional crush… 

I feel like I’m betraying Tony with this…..

I had to really think about this. First crush was probably Xena because XENA.

Most recent crush is definitely Taliesin Jaffe, voice actor and player in Critical Role.

I was tagged by @kiki-shortsnout to list 4 songs I've listened to today.

All I've listened to today - obsessively on repeat (4 or 5 times so far?) is the Years and Years album Communion. I've only recently started listening to it and it's helping me brainstorm characters (and oh... yeah... the whole "work" thing. Bleurgh.)

The really tragic thing is that I can't tag 4 other people to pass this on, because I'm so new to Tumblr I'm ONLY FOLLOWING LIKE 3 PEOPLE so far 🙄

I love that one of my #pigeons is just here to chill out. Not looking for food or sex, just passing the time of day. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMmkbTYHYOX/?igshid=1nx1iveuj1bbh
