Summary
Sometimes Tony still can’t believe he’s dating Pepper Potts. True, it only happened a few weeks ago, and he’s still tiptoeing around certain things, not wanting to mess this up. But he’s finally convinced himself that this is really happening. He’s really dating Pepper.
Which is why he’s completely unprepared when she comes into the office one morning and says,
“My mother’s coming to visit us in New York and I panicked and told her I was dating Rhodey.”

Natasha glances over at Tony, sipping at a smoothie as she sits on the edge of the coffee table and watches the doorway where the mysterious mistletoe hung. “Thor brought it back as a gift. Last time he was here Jane and Darcy taught him about modern Christmas traditions.”
“Did you tell him it’s March? He’s a couple months late.”

Tony awakens to the feeling of feathers brushing across his face, and he blinks and sputters as he sits up in confusion. The bright blue numbers of the clock on his nightstand stand out even in the orange glow of the sunrise peeking through the windows, and he groans, rolling over to complain.

Summary
The soulmark's some sort of triangle pattern inside a circle, but he won’t be able to tell for sure until he finds the person who has the other half of the design. Though…it’s awfully small to be half a soulmate mark. It looks kind of like there’s more missing than there should be.

Summary
Tony will forever be grateful to Dr. James Rhodes. When Stark Industries had collapsed and Tony was in dire straights, Rhodes had picked him up and offered him everything he needed to get his life together. Rhodes didn’t care that his recklessness and alcoholism had tanked an entire company. Rhodes thought he was smart and driven and worth something, and gave him a second chance. So yeah, Tony admires him just for that, and that alone would be enough to satisfy any normal person.
But not Tony. No, Tony had to go and develop a crush on his boss.

“I am glad to see you enjoying yourself,” Anthony says. “I could show you how to change the angle of the telescope, if you wish.”
“A dragon who studies the stars,” Virginia scoffs, brushing him off. “I didn’t think your kind were interested in anything other than treasure.”
“Science is a treasure,” he says so sincerely she almost feels bad for mocking him. “It’s one of the reasons I like James very much. He understands.”

“Shit, Tones,” Rhodey whispers as fifteen years of growth falls to the floor. “Tell me you didn’t just chop off all your hair because you’re pissed at your dad.”
“I chopped off my hair because I’m pissed at my dad,” Tony answers, unrepentant. She stares at her reflection, the messy ends of her hair hanging unevenly around her ears. She looks like an idiot, but she feels good. Lighter than she has in ages.

“She’s the one, Rhodes, she’s absolutely perfect.” Tony sighs wistfully, staring down in the magazine in his hands.

As a marine biologist, there are certain things Pepper never expects to find when she moves into her new house on the California coast. Namely, mermaids.
