Between Heaven and Hell by Moonstalker24 picks up right after the fight in the bunker in Captain America: Civil War is a delight for those of us that are still feeling salty about that whole business. (The pairing is Tony/Pepper, but their relationship is not the main focus of the story.)
Author's summary:
There’s a sort of poetry to the pain that lances through him. A sort of slow burn that is usually associated with strong alcohol and certain types of recreational narcotics. It radiates out from his chest. Throbbing through him in pulses every time his lungs expand. He can feel the sharp spines of gold-titanium alloy digging into his flesh. The crackle-shift of broken ribs moving into places they shouldn’t be.
He's going to die this time. He can feel his extremities getting colder, heavier. Knows that the armor is only slowing the blood loss, not stopping it.
Tony Stark is left to die in a bunker in Siberia. His family doesn't like that at all. As they rally around him, so does the rest of the world, forcing the Rogue Avengers to face the consequences of their actions.
