    Summary

    “It’s not your job to protect me!” Tony snapped, his hands still trembling as they smoothed down to grab at his shoulders.

    “So, what?! I was just supposed to watch you get hit, then?” Peter accused.

    “You were supposed to follow orders!” Tony dodged the question.

    Peter felt his lip curl upward and his brows pull together. “You could have died, Tony! Do you just not understand that?!”

    “So?!” Tony challenged.

    (or: Peter and Tony argue and then they make up. most of the fic is comfort.)

    Reasons that Tony Stark has trouble growing close to new people: Howard, Obadiah, Steve and the other Rogues, and a host of others who have broken his trust or used him for his money or tech over the years.

    Reasons that Tony has kept Peter at arms length for the last year: See above.

    But then FRIDAY goes down and Tony needs help getting her back up, and Peter comes running to help. And all the reasons he's refusing to let Peter into his life beyond just being his intern?

    Summary

    It turns out, that day in the Parkers’ apartment wasn’t the first time that Tony and Peter met. Neither was the Stark Expo.

    Pepper handed Tony a photograph, Peter peering over his shoulder to look. Tony barely registered what he was looking at, before a sharp inhale of breath from Peter commanded his full attention.
    “Wait- that… that looks like my mom,” Peter whispered.

    This is not a Tony is Peter's bio-dad story.

    Summary

    It’s not usually a problem. Tony doesn’t usually have to work so hard to hide it because Pepper, Happy, and Rhodey know. He can be himself around them. Right after the compound had been built, Tony had been worried about moving in with the Avengers full time… worried they’d notice his tics and figure out his secret. Then Germany had happened and the team had split up before they could fully move into the compound. Tony had had two years where he hadn’t needed to worry about it. Now that the Rogues are back and are living in the tower full time, it’s on his mind again and stressing him out. The problem? Coffee mugs. Well… coffee mugs, and other things and the fact that when he’s stressed out, the tics get worse. But mainly coffee mugs. Coffee mugs are the bane of his existence.
    OR
    Tony has Tourette Syndrome and he doesn’t want the Avengers (or Peter) to find out about it. The newly returned Avengers think Tony is just being a jerk when he knocks things off of tables and counters, because they think he’s doing it on purpose. Despite the angsty summary, this is all about the team coming back together and Tony learning that the people in his life can’t accept him as he is until given the chance to know him as he is.

    Summary

    Mr. Stark stared at him in silence for a long moment.

    Peter’s heart sank in his chest. The last time he’d seen Mr. Stark awake, Mr. Stark had actually embraced him. He’d seemed so happy that the time travel and Bruce’s snap had worked, and that Peter was back. But now—

    “How long?” Tony asked coolly.

    ***
    Or, the one where Peter has magic powers that come with a heavy cost.
