Title: The Kids Weren’t Alright
Rating: PG-13
Length: this chapter: 13,000; total: 53,000
Characters: Bruce Banner, Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Pepper Potts, Natasha Romanoff, Clint Barton, and Jane Foster. This is gen, but focuses on the relationships between Bruce/Tony, Bruce/Steve, Bruce/Natasha, with some Tony/Pepper, Tony/Steve, Natasha/Clint
Warning: deals with past child abuse (parts 2-4); offensive (including homophobic) language; really nonsensical use of science concepts, equipment, and terminology
Summary: Tony accidentally turns himself into a twelve-year-old using alien tech. Steve is stuck as bodyguard, Bruce is stuck trying to fix him, and Pepper is stuck trying to ward off a twelve-year old’s attempts at flirtation. And then things go from bad to worse.
A/N: Thanks as always to
my_daroga, for listening.
This is the fourth story of the series
Responsible Science. You don’t have to have read any of the previous stories to get this one.
This story is 4 parts long. It’s finished; I’m just editing. All should be posted within a week.
Since few people, if any, seem to be reading my Avengers fic on LJ, the link takes you to Ao3. Alternatively you can read this on Dreamwidth (
part 1 and
part 2 and
part 3).
