Bonus Time(s)?: Non-sequences
(Mostly short (series of) fics exploring various potential consequences for canon events/actions;
:What-if scenarios, rather than proper divergence
:Unseen moments, that could plausibly have happened between/alongside what was known/shown to have occurred
:Actions have consequences (either short-term, or liable to affect the characters, but not the (wider) plot)
:(Occasionally major consequences that would derail the entire plot/world; e.g. major character death)
:Consequences come to light (some time) after the fact - either canon compliant, or somewhat vague canon relevance (but not actively contradictory)
(Closed, Moderated)

Summary
The world keeps pushing him, demanding, because what he did wasn't enough. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but that wasn't enough, wasn't ever enough.
Tony Stark was tired. But he had a planet to protect, even if everyone laughed at him whenever the prospect of alien invasions was brought up. He could count on one hand how many people he could trust, which was disheartening but then, what else was new?
Or,
In which Tony does not, in fact, intend to take over the world.
...unfortunately, everyone else missed that particular memo.
[gradual divergence from canon, starting at the end of Iron Man 3. In which it's Tony's self-awareness, rather than his support system, that becomes a cryptid sometime during Phase II.]

The MCU would have us believe that the only way for the heroes to win was for Tony to die.
I politely disagree.

Turnabout is fair play.
It's different when it hits close to home.
Only ask for sacrifices that you are willing to make yourself.
