Summary
There are certain truths Tony Stark knew about the Universe: entropy always increased, light traveled at 299, 792, 458 m/s, and the acceleration due to gravity was 9.8 m/s2. .
Other truths, just as immutable, were that Steve Rogers was a hero, yes, but also arrogant, and clueless, with a stick up his ass, and that he himself, Tony Stark, was an asshole. Tony deemed it about as unlikely that any evidence would be forthcoming that would prove either of them otherwise as that the speed of light would suddenly start to be a variable.
The problem is, that Steve keeps refusing to conform.

Summary
Steve has no plan. Not because he hadn't tried to make one. He'd tried to make lots of plans. Plan, adapt, plan again, tried to think of every contingency.
And then he'd thrown them away, because there wasn't much point. What could you plan for? He couldn't guess the possible contingencies, the situations, the potentials. And he sure as sure hadn't figured on what's happened now, on coming back to his place and finding Bucky here. He hadn't even hoped for that.
He hadn't realized he could.

Summary
Written for a prompt on Avengerkink, and posted there as 'Edutainment.'
Phil is Mr. Coulson, beloved children's entertainer and purveyor of quality television for humans. Clint is the new cameraman, and this is the tale of their love. And of Steve and Bucky's, and other people's as they appear. Coulson is afraid he's too boring and Clint that he's not classy enough. They are both wrong.

Bookmarker's Notes
two words: hipster trolls. A delightful fic, but reading it makes me have to go to Powell's.
