stars_inthe_sky Why This Must Be Read: This is one of my favorite Pepperony fics. It’s mostly a look at Tony, admittedly, but it’s still a beautiful look at the pair of them as Tony works through his hesitations and personal history regarding family and children. The rest of the Avengers are around, too, in that casual post-Avengers-living-in-the-Tower configuration that has generated many a lovely team fic, and the results are very appealing indeed.

stars_inthe_sky Why This Must Be Read: This is admittedly shippy gen more than a proper shipfic-the focus is on Natasha and Pepper’s relationship as Tony tries to solve the Extremis problem in the background-but I’m reccing it anyway because it’s an excellent little story, and the tension between Natasha and Tony (and then Pepper by extension) simmers nicely in the negative space.

stars_inthe_sky Why This Must Be Read: The pre-relationship relationship between Pepper and Tony is rich territory for storytelling, given their unorthodox employer-employee relationship and the undercurrent of respect and attraction that makes their eventual romance so satisfying. This fic defines it all beautifully.

stars_inthe_sky Why This Must Be Read: I have a not-so-secret weakness for road-trip fics where Steve Rogers gets to see America, and this one is no exception. And this one also includes Tony, Tony’s robots, and Pepper’s much-welcome meddling, so it’s a welcome addition to the fanon, complete with some nice bro-ing out.
