AN: I want to thank everyone who came by to read my little tester fic here. And yes, this was a testing fic. Just me checking on the reception to such a crossover in long form.

This wasn't meant to be anything more than fluff and me playing around, so I'm sorry if you came in expecting something deep and meaningful. It wasn't ever going to be as such.

As for me not liking Wanda: She is one character that this universe fucked over so much that I can't see her truth in this. Even X-Men: Evolution did a better job with her and she was a pissed off teen who Toad crushed on hard. I don't like her.

Moving on, it will be a spin off of Our Truths (a Naruto fic) that is the pairing of Ibiki/Naruto and starts around chapter 26 of that story. So. Yeah.

I'll see you there. :D


Watching as Ichigo walked across the stage, twenty-three and graduating with his History of Art Degree and a job learning how to run an art house that Tony owned, Tony smiled and whistled. Shinji was smiling smugly the row in front of him with Rose, Isshin, Yuzu and Karin. Pepper, Natasha, Clint, Stephen, Peter, Wade, M'Baku, and Sam were sitting on Tony's right, while Loki took his left with Thor holding a phone, streaming the graduation ceremony for his friends in Japan.

Over the last few years, things had changed. Good for some. Not so good for others.

For Tony, he had found himself surrounded by friends and a lover who loved him without condition. His business was growing with every day it did good things for the world, and his own work in helping those who had suffered under natural and not so natural disasters. He used the Iron Legion as a unit to help as many people as he could between dealing with super-powered idiots that ran around.

Most of the villians had taken the chance of fighting to wipe their records and start their lives anew. It worked for all. Last he knew, several of the old villains that he and his fellow Avengers had dealt with had started some rather nice small-time businesses, working in the background instead of being the face of it. The businesses included a new hole-in-the-wall restaurant and a small pastry shop that Ichigo and Yuzu loved to go to.

The Rogues had regained the ability to use the name 'Avengers' and they were Team C. They mostly took training jobs in various parts of the compound, teaching the newly joined Avengers or helping them with burnout in Sam's case. Sam had gone back to college to get a full degree in psychology to go with his certificates and previous experience. He would graduate himself in the next year, having done most of it via online courses between his job, community service and the fights that the Avengers were called out on.

Lang had happily taken his licks and was on much better ground with both his ex-wife and his daughter, but also with Hope. Steve had moved from high school courses to college courses and was still seeing a therapist though not as often as he had been. Bucky was catching up on seventy plus years of memories, history, and information, doing well under Xavier's guidance. Last that Tony had heard, the man had hooked up with an old friend and his lover.

He wished nothing but Logan and Remy luck and love with Bucky.

M'Baku and T'Challa had found a surrogate to carry T'Challa's child, both men agreeing that they wanted children but unwilling to sleep with a woman. Wakanda was doing well opened to the rest of the world and was helping Africa as a whole in any way that they could. There was a small makeup company that was coming from them that was run by their sisters and hired those who wanted a better life for themselves and their families.

The Asgardian village had grown, several Asgardians who had left Asgard once upon a time arriving when it got around that they were all on Earth. Thor was quite happy and dating a woman who had been born off Asgard. They were courting the old-fashioned way and she was learning what it would be to be a Queen.

Hel had finished with the souls finally and sent back those she couldn't take back, including several families and tradesmen that had filled in spots that they had been missing. It had taken the Accords and Tony just a few days to get everyone identification once they had arrived.

The last that he had heard, Wanda was still pissed, still cuffed and stopped from touching her powers. Shinji occasionally sent new bracelets and necklaces of the stone to the prison that held her. She was still being forced to attend anger management classes, counseling, and schooling. Not that she was really getting better, much to Eric's despair.

The X-Men, in all ways, were doing good. Deadpool would often work with them on some of the nastier jobs that they had to deal with, but more often, usually teaching the younger students how to fight dirty. It turned out to be a good set up for the X-Men and for Deadpool.

Ichigo had been able to relax once more, fading into the background. He found himself happily in a triad with Rose and Shinji, the two men protective and loving in all the ways that the younger man needed. They made him happy, relaxed in the day to day and his sisters loved the two men just as much as their own big brother. Isshin was unsurprised that his son had ended up with two men who were much older than he was, stating that he was a lot like his mother.

Which worked for Tony since it meant that Ichigo usually came to work in a good mood.

Ichigo had also worked to graduate with honors and proven that he was the right person for the art gallery that Tony was putting together. He already had plans on how best to have a team authenticate paintings as they came through various galleries and museums. Ichigo had a list of people that he was wanting to try to pull in once his training was done and Tony was likely to approve them.

Outside of work, and graduating, Ichigo had also helped Yuzu and Karin get into their first year of college and get through the school style change. Karin had gotten a sports scholarship for her business school while Yuzu was using their college funds with Karin's permission for a law degree. Tony had told her that if she did a good job, he most likely would sweep her up for his business before others could.

Her sweet face made it hard for others to take her seriously and she used that to her advantage. It was fun watching her destroy an argument just because she was underestimated by whoever she had gone up against. With Karin, they would make quite the tag team and take over the business world.

Tony and Loki couldn't wait to see it happen.

Loki himself had finally come to terms with his history and what he had experienced with Thanos and Odin's decisions through his life. Tony had flat out said one night as Loki spoke of his life in the palace that if Odin hadn't died, he would have found out how it felt to be punched by a gloved hand powered by Extremis and whatever else Loki had done to him in their time together. Loki had just chuckled and said that if Odin hadn't done what he had done, they probably would have never met.

And that he was willing to deal with whatever he had to deal with just to be with Tony. Tony would deny to his dying day that he had melted at that before pulling his lover into bed for some prime cuddling time.

Ichigo just gave him an amused, knowing look each time the topic was brought up and continued to do whatever he was doing at the time. This usually included making Natasha question her willingness to live in her apartment at the tower again and help train Yuzu and Karin in the best way to protect themselves.

Tony just laughed at Natasha and told her to pass the chai tea before he told Ichigo that she wanted another lesson in how to make tea properly again.
