Summary: Tony’s still not always sure how they all fell out like this. Well, okay, it isn’t like he’s completely clueless, he’s always very aware of sex, in all its forms and manipulations, going on around him and with him.
But Tony had to be blind not to notice the trinkets that Steve and Bruce were sporting.
In a world where omegas are given courting gifts of jewelry when alphas or betas or other omegas want to have sex with them, the media, the newspapers, and talk show hosts always make dismissive and disgusted remarks about how Tony Stark sleeps with so many people and yet refuses to wear any of their jewelry in public. Self-centered and arrogant, some say, while others whisper that, with his wealth, Tony really shouldn't be asking for gifts in the first place. Even with all the speculation about how rich and how decadent Tony's jewelry collection must be, however, no one's ever seen it.
Because Tony... Tony doesn't have a collection at all.
Review: This a beautiful and sweet fic that was written for the Marvel Big Bang. You should definitely check out the gorgeous art!
In a modern day Omegaverse, packs, polyamory, heats, and ruts are considered normal and acceptable. While I love the use of omegaverse as social commentary it is still really nice to see such a open and light version of the Omegaverse idea. One where people are considered equal but with different needs and pack is family of choice.
Most of the story drama comes from Tony's past abusive relationships and trauma. With his pack working to understand and support him as he tries to understand their building relationship.
The entire fic takes place over the course of one heat, so it is very fast moving and heavy on the smut, but the concentration on the emotionally payoff is really satisfying. If you are looking for a good first time dipping your toe in the omegaverse pool, this might be a good fic for you.
