Today it’s Steve/Tony fluff recs!

For Sentimental Reasons by BlossomsintheMist (Ultimates)
Summary: Ultimates Steve and Tony have hard lives–and they end up relaxing together. It turns into a habit. Non-sexual submission with service top Steve and sub Tony.
Why you should read it: Honestly it feels like this fic was written as a gift from the universe (or from BlossomsintheMist) to me personally because service tops are literally my favorite people in the universe and I whole-heartedly believe that Steve is one (well, usually, they like to switch it up okay). The writing is beautiful, Steve and Tony are in love, it’s amazing. I want to live in this fic forever. 

The Road to the Grail is Paved with Hermits by Lenalena for Ellidfics (MCU)
Summary: Steve has gotten himself stuck in the Middle Ages and he is desperately waiting to be rescued. After more than a year, he hears about a red and gold flying demon that has dared all of King Arthur’s knights to come challenge it. He hopes this means that Iron Man has come for him, so that all he needs to do is find Tony and get out of this place. Should be simple. Tony didn’t even know where he would end up, when he went after Steve. It’s not been an easy adjustment for him, to put it mildly. And once he has figured out how to find Steve in this primitive shit show, how the hell is going to get him back home? Sir Thomas Malory meets Monty Python, with more hermits than any sensible story needs.
Why you should read it: (I wasn’t sure whether to share this on fluff day or angst day and settled on fluff because, while there is angst, there’s also humor, idk.) So this is HILARIOUS and perfect. It has plot AND character development AND feels AND jokes. What more could you ask for? 

There is No Place Like Home for the Holidays by Lenalena (MCU)
Summary: Steve is the first to come home to the tower after S.H.I.E.L.D. goes down. Then Natasha and Clint arrive. Tony doesn’t mind, really, he’s got the space. Except it’s December and they insist on doing Christmassy shit. Who the hell has time for that?!? Christmas 5 – Tony 0
Why you should read it: I know it’s July and everything but. Look, I don’t even celebrate Christmas, so if anything it being featured prominently in a fic makes me skeptical rather than excited. But this right here is the quality New York City Christmas schmaltz! Ice skating at Rockefeller Center! Buying chestnuts off the street! Tony decorating cookies to look like the other Avengers! Plus lots of thoughtful character details, like Steve going to midnight mass. 

You Know How to Give by brandnewfashion (MCU)
Summary: Steve was one of very few people who knew that the real Tony Stark was thoughtful and selfless, and genuinely cared about others. The problem? The man was absolute shit at showing it.
Why you should read it: Fluff with a side of plot, humor, and character development. The pacing and structure is really well-done, and I love all the dialogue. 

Out for a Spin by Neverever (MCU)
Summary: Tony goes to a car show with Steve but he’s never sure if they’re talking about cars or maybe something else.
Why you should read it: This is SO cute and funny. Steve is sassy and clever and sweet and smitten. I love subtext that is just… not even subtext any more. Fortunately for Steve, so does Tony. (Also, you definitely don’t need to know anything about cars to enjoy this fic because I know as little is possible to know about them. I’m not even that good at driving them.)
