Summary
Sometimes it just takes one wrong move, one slightly stronger swing of a shield, and an entire universe is doomed as their only hope withers away in a cold desolate bunker.
Back in time, and with visions of a possible future in his head, Tony needs to decide what his next steps would be and what to change without things going off the deep end.
Once again, he was cursed with the sight of the end, and once again, he was the only one. Maybe this time, they will listen to him.

Summary
It's too late, Stephen knows, as soon as he hears the stars start screaming. His universe is collapsing, and none of his spells can do anything at this point.
But it's not the end.
Stephen Strange wakes up in his scrubs on the floor of a surgery room. Tony Stark wakes up in his workshop at Avengers Tower, held in the arms of an old Iron Man armor. Peter Parker wakes up tangled in the sheets of a bunk bed he hadn’t seen in weeks.
The day is 21st September 2014. The universe holds its breath as three time-displaced souls regain their bearings.
Ahead of them, their past awaits.

Summary
It had been a relatively okay day for Stan, up until he got attacked by the crazy girl.
And now she and her brother want him to go on a road trip with them because apparently they need his help to...keep the world from being destroyed?
Geez, what have they been smoking? -

Summary
He’s nine again– nine and new and knows so many things now so rather than try to go back–
He thinks he has the chance to make things right.
The bright blue trainers he puts on are a pair he hasn’t worn in forever, something he never thought about after he grew out of them (will grow out of?) a year from now, and sets off into the night and into the rain.
The plan he has in his brain is not really a plan, moreso just a couple of half thrown ideas and maybe five steps into building back the life he had in the most painless way he could.
Maybe, he thinks, maybe this plan can start off with the family he misses– because he’s sixty and most of them too injured or too old or too dead–
Call him selfish but he misses them. He would rather find them than get himself back into that lonely existence he called a life before he woke up at nine.
Dick makes do because that’s all he can do really.
-🦇-
Dick gets sent back in time, but don't worry, he's got this. (Probably)

Summary
"Fuck this," Tony grumbled to himself as he tried not to yank on the car battery cables connected to his chest in frustration. "Fuck Thanos, fuck time travel, fuck the fucking glow stones."
He paused, glowering up at the security camera blinking away in the corner of the cave.
"Actually fuck everything," he growled slightly louder. "Imma Mary Sue the shit out of myself, just you fucking watch."
