Summary
Pepper Potts, Tony Stark, and Bruce Banner are all, well, not completely mentally healthy people. But it takes less time than one might think for them all to end up together. At the same time, the Avengers manage to reassemble as a team, rather than just as people. Pepper's there for all of it.

Summary
As enigmatic as he'd always been, within the last 24 hours he'd proved himself to be even farther beyond her understanding than she'd ever imagined.
The birds hopped about in the thicket, and, as if beside themselves, voiced their happiness; the juicy leaves joyfully and contentedly whispered on the tree-tops; and the branches of the living trees slowly and majestically waved over the dead and fallen tree. – “Three Deaths” by Leo Tolstoy

Bookmarker's Notes
"She gave her sons no safety, no refuge, just as Erebor’s dwarves had had none."
Backstory/headcannon, fits perfectly with the original. Re-read me.

Summary
Bryce Banner is on uncertain ground as she accepts a job with Stark Industries after the Chitauri Invasion. Her footing slips even more when she realizes that Tony and Steve seem to be offering her a place in their newly-forming relationship. Having everything she never knew she wanted is a heavy burden, and when General Ross teams up with an old friend in a plan to either capture Bryce or simply drain her head of all the knowledge of her creation of the Hulk, it feels almost welcome. At least she's used to fighting.

Summary
An AU of the events covering SIEGE and immediate after. When Tony is rebooted after deleting his brain, he's left with no memory of anything, and lingering programs that keep him from finding out everything he missed. Sometimes you just need to start over, but there's always a place in every plan for a backup.
