    Summary

    Stuck in rehab after a near-fatal accident, Tony reaches out via letters to a soldier overseas, and Bucky is more than happy to write back, drawn to Tony for a reason he can't quite name. One or two letters turn into a years worth, then come the phone calls, with Tony quickly realizing that Bucky's voice, with that rolling Brooklyn accent might be his new favorite sound.
    When Bucky shows up unannounced at Tony's door, one thing leads to another and maybe a confession or two is made. But Bucky's tour overseas isn't over yet, not even close, and they have months more of distance between them.
    Then Bucky disappears, missing in action, and Tony doesn't know if he will ever get his soldier back. And if Bucky DOES make it home, will he be the same boy from Brooklyn who sent Tony love poems, or has his time away and his injuries changed him for good?

    Summary

    (Tony and Steve meet to sign divorce papers but neither is ready to let go)
    ********
    Tony kept his head down as he signed, unable to look up and meet Steve’s blue eyed, heart breaking gaze. He had every right to be angry, every right to demand a divorce, every right to scream and rage at Steve and every right to break every damn thing in this stupid apartment. He had every right to– every right to–

    Tony’s hand shook and he took a deep breath, trying to still the tremors.

    The signature was so permanent, every initial, every page turn another nail in the coffin that had been their marriage, every blot of ink another blow at the love that had linked them together. The love and the trust and the happiness–

    “Hey hey hey.” Steve knelt in front of Tony and took the file away, and it was only then Tony realized he was crying, smudging the ink with his tears. “Sweetheart, please don’t– please don’t cry. This isn’t what I wanted, baby. I never wanted to make you cry, I never wanted–” he blew out a shaky breath. “Please don’t cry.”

    Summary

    When Peter and Harley can't stop fighting at school, Dad!Tony and Dad!Bucky meet up to try and figure out a way to keep the peace between their kiddos, but end up falling for each other instead.
    ///////////

    “I think your normal day is more exciting than our normal.” Tony decided and Bucky countered, “S’nothing wrong with a little excitement, Tony. Gotta relax and have fun at some point, right?"

    “There’s better ways to relax than waking up to chaos.” Tony said dryly. "Don't you think?"

    “I think I'd like to relax with a cold beer and your pants on my floor.” Bucky whistled loudly when Harley picked up a rock. “Harley PunkAss Keener Barnes, put that down!”

    “Uh, yeah, Pop!” Harley dropped the rock. “I was just lookin’ at it!”

    “Look with your eyes not your hands! And not with a fuckin’ evil smirk on your face!” Bucky hollered “Anyway, Tony. M’just saying, you should be–”

    “–drinking beer and taking my pants off?” Tony finished. “Do you say things like that to other parents too, or am I an exception?”

    "Uh---" Bucky gulped. "Sorry?"
