Title: Jack of All Trades (Part One)
Characters: Edwin Jarvis, Tony Stark, Howard Stark, Peggy Carter, Anna Jarvis, daemons
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Triggers: swearing, references to alcoholism, factory accidents (very mild references to wounds)
Spoilers: Generalized for the Stark family's backstory in the MCU
Pairings: Jarvis/Anna, Howard/Maria, Peggy/Her Husband
Word Count 5, 753
Summary: A factory accident, a medical conference, and an 'indisposed' nanny adds child-minding to Jarvis' list of professions for the day as Master Tony is placed in his care. Thankfully, he gets a little help here and there.
Author's notes: This is long. Everything I write lately is long. I'm sorry everything is so long. It's one story, but it's had to be split in two due to length.

Set in December of 1972 (I started it so long ago, I can't remember why I was that specific, but I was, apparently). Tony is about two-and-a-half.

Knowledge of His Dark Materials is not required. All that's necessary to know is that, in this world, humans' souls live outside of their bodies in the form of animals. There's an excellent primer here.

The characters of Dejeni, Takeo, and Tomor (mentioned but not appearing) belong to joonscribble. Our custody arrangement allows for the borrowing of them.

For reference: Haddie (a Welsh Springer Spaniel), Dejeni (a raccoon), Takeo (a spotted hyena), Hesper (a silkmoth), Hoggan (a kinkajou)

Mentioned by not appearing onscreen: Carmel (a rose-breasted grosbeak), Prydery (a koala), and Tomor (an otter)

Summary: When the press starts to close in on Howard and Maria's new relationship, Howard whisks Maria off to Paris see if he can convince her to stick around.
Author's notes: This is the last part I have written at the moment, but there will be one more, shorter part and I know what I want to do.

( The amount of times we found Stark without his trousers was to the point that seeing him with them on warranted comment. )

Title: Paris in Spring (3/?)
Characters: Howard Stark, Maria Carrera, Edwin Jarvis, Dernier, Falsworth, a few OCs
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Triggers: swearing, some discussion of sad things, lots of sex and innuendo (nothing explicit)
Spoilers: Nothing specific, but generalized for various backstories of the characters involved
Pairings: Howard/Maria
Word Count 2,902
Summary: When the press starts to close in on Howard and Maria's new relationship, Howard whisks Maria off to Paris see if he can convince her to stick around.
Author's notes: The lindy hop that Howard and Maria do here probably looks something like this, though not quite as elaborate. I'm not sure if the move names would have been used during Howard's day, or if they were invented to describe them when the lindy revival in the 80's happened, but to make things easier, he's using the move names. A 'sidecar' looks like this, for reference.

Title: Paris in Spring (1/?)
Characters: Howard Stark, Maria Carrera, Edwin Jarvis, Dernier, Falsworth, a few OCs
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Triggers: swearing, some discussion of sad things, lots of sex and innuendo (nothing explicit)
Spoilers: Nothing specific, but generalized for various backstories of the characters involved
Pairings: Howard/Maria
Word Count 3,367
Summary: When the press starts to close in on Howard and Maria's new relationship, Howard whisks Maria off to Paris see if he can convince her to stick around.
Author's notes: This is one of those stories that started out small, and got bigger. I was originally going to have it in three parts, but then it went to four parts, and then those four parts were best split into two, so I think it will be 6-7 parts over all.

Remember when I used to write short things? Me either.

A lot of headcanon in this, especially in regards to Maria. Set in 1965. Howard is mid forties, Jarvis somewhere in that area, and Maria is in her late twenties. It follows Memory Lapse, but doesn't reference it.

The parts alternate between Howard and Maria's POV. Howard starts off.

Title: The Virtues of Being Useful (3/4)

Pairings: Jarvis/Anna
Word Count 4,478
Summary: Edwin Jarvis arrives in America to start a new life, with a new wife, in New York, and attempts to find his footing with a very interesting new employer.
Author's notes: So much headcanon...

Title: Reunion
Characters: Steve Rogers, Jacqueline Falsworth-Crichton, a slew of OCs
Rating: PG
Warnings/Triggers: none
Spoilers: Generalized Captain America spoilers
Pairings: None, aside from a few mentions of the Commandos and their partners
Word Count 6,429
Summary: Steve is invited to the 14th Annual Howling Commandos Family Reunion, which turns out to be a bit more overwhelming than he'd expected, but rather heartwarming, too.
Author's notes: This is an expansion of the fic I wrote for consci_fan_mo in December. That fic makes the beginning of this one, and then I added on the rest now that I'm not limited by word count.

At the time I started writing this, the only Commandos we knew about were the ones in the original Captain America film, and to save myself a lot of trouble, I've elected not to fold in the ones we've learned of thanks to Agent Carter. Also, I'm not clear on whether Steve met those Commandos or not. To make things easier on myself and not have to come up with a billion surnames, Steve refers to each descendent by the family they come from (any descendent of Gabe is a 'Jones', any of Jacques is a 'Dernier', etc), even though I know there would be a ton of other surnames going by now.

Inspired by a post on tumblr quite a while back about the Howling Commandos being a big extended family and having reunions and such. It's here, though I sort of went off in my own direction with it. I wanted something with Bucky, but it got too long and would have been tacked on, so I've left it as is.

( And now, Steve was awake to join in. )

Title: A Little Help
Characters: Daniel Sousa, Howard Stark, Peggy Carter
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Triggers: swearing, a murder, blood, discussion of war wounds (including amputations), Howard Stark being Howard Stark
Spoilers: Basic ones for Agent Carter
Pairings: Flying reference to Jarvis/Anna, some Sousa/Peggy (attraction on Sousa's part, Peggy's POV isn't explored here)
Word Count 6,393 words
Summary: Sousa and Howard team up to find Peggy and Jarvis, and Sousa and Peggy both learn about accepting help when it's offered.
Author's notes: This is a companion/sequel to A Nice Chat. When I was writing it, I suddenly wanted to see how Howard and Sousa would get on working together. As usual, it went a different direction than how I thought it would.

The story won't make a lot of sense if you haven't read the previous one, as I purposely left out details and skipped over parts that I would have been retreading. This story happens concurrently and after that one.

There might be a third part with Howard, but we'll see how that goes. Backstory included is mostly speculative. Did my best with planes and Geography, but artistic license will probably have to be invoked.

( God, it must be nice to have money and no limits on your life. )

Title: Sincerity and Strawberries
Characters: Howard Stark, Maria Stark, Tony Stark, Edwin Jarvis, random au pair
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Triggers: swearing and innuendo, a bit of sadness
Spoilers: None
Pairings: Howard/Maria, references to Jarvis/Anna
Word Count 8,369
Summary: Howard's plans for the night are derailed when Maria has to go away, leaving him with Tony, a broken robot, and a whole lot of reports to read.
Author's notes: Man, this one went 'fwoosh!' on me and blew right up. I started with one very small idea, and then...I couldn't stop writing. Kind of a go at Howard's narration voice in an non-daemon setting, and his experiences with fatherhood in Tony's early years.

A mix of fluff and a bit of sadness, mostly stemming from knowledge we have of the future than the content of the story.

Tony is ~2 years old here.

( It's Tony! )
