To The Ends Of The Earth Is A Long Way Away

What the hell? Why am I awake?

I'll tell you why. Because Secret Invasion ended today. And, as expected Tony got fucking whumped to the nth degree - Thor told him he was never talking to him again, the government blamed him for everything bad that's ever happened ever, he got kicked out of being SHIELD Director and replaced by NORM FUCKING OSBORN, his company is pretty much gone...yeah, everyone hates Tony and his life sucks. So someone in the Steve/Tony comm issued a fairy tale comment-drabble challenge, to get some warm fuzzy Tony fic to bolster out spirits.

Apparently my brain sees "write a comment-drabble" and takes it to mean "write 3000+ words of the Steve/Tony version of East of the Sun, West of the Moon. Cause that's what I'm doing right now. Fuuuuuuck.

Here, have a sample.


Once upon a time, there was a young man named Steve. Steve was not wealthy, but he was fair and kind and strong of heart, which matters far more. And because of this, he had devoted his life to fighting the cruel and the wicked, though it was hard, and often terribly lonely. Until the day one of his most terrible enemies finally bested him in battle, leaving him to die where he fell.
