Superhero College/High School AUs
Hi! Do you have any high school/college AUs where one or both of them are still superheroes (preferably not AvAc)?
Hmmmm…well, that’s honestly difficult, since Tony usually isn’t IM at that age, even if Steve is Cap. You can check out the Younger Tony/Older Steve recs for some like that and also Stonyclunks (Tony isn’t IM, but Steve is Cap). But, here are a few suggestions that you might enjoy. If anyone has other ideas, please add them in the replies!

All That Tomorrow Brings by YourFavoriteRobot: Captain America is a seventeen year old Tony Stark’s idol. Steve Rogers is his art history teacher. (Set in Iron Man: Armored Adventures ‘verse but should be accessible as a high school AU to anyone who hasn’t seen it)
You Gave Me a Home by Moonrose001: Since Registration passed on and Sentinels started
guarding the streets instead of superheroes, the USA has come to
resemble Dystopia more than an united country. A young group of masked
teenagers are fighting back the undemocratic and unconstitutional ways,
lead by Captain America.And Steve Rogers is a handsome, but
awkward student leading a double life. He is also head and heels in love
with Tony Stark, the son of the government’s arms dealer.
Show Me How to Live by @imafriendlydalek:
The world has moved on since Captain America went into the ice, Steve
had been told by his handler at SHIELD, an agent he knows only as
Sitwell. Genetic modification of humans is very much forbidden by
international law, and with the country already embroiled in war,
Captain America has to remain hidden.
It’s 2005 and Steve is back at
art school, this time in Boston. At an event that involves melting
metal, he sees a pair of familiar eyes. As they get to know each other,
Steve and Tony also learn the truth behind the lies they have been told.
(leads up to IM1)
His Fate Will Be Unlearned by @scifigrl47: Tony Stark spent his childhood making weapons, filling
the hole his father left in the world when he succumbed to alcohol,
grief, and his own demons. At the age of fifteen, he ran away from home,
and made it as far as MIT before all of his responsibilities caught up
to him. Now seventeen, he just wants to finish his degree and escape
from everything connected to the Stark name. Steve Rogers crashed
into the icy North Atlantic in the 1940’s, sacrificing himself to save
the world. He never expected to wake up, and now that he has, he’s not
sure he’s glad. The US Army has other plans for him, but for now, Steve
is slowly learning to live life in the 21st century, and taking classes
at Boston College. He’s beginning to suspect that there is no escape.Boston
College is on the T’s Green Line. MIT is on the Red. The two lines
meet at the Park Street Station, and so will Steve and Tony.
