"Respect and obedience to a higher rank was more clear-cut and ingrained in the military culture. While Gibbs tried to carry that over into his job at NCIS, it wasn't always a smooth blend with a non-military work environment. And, he realized, his lack of awareness about this had led him to a poor response in addressing it." -

Summary
The world keeps pushing him, demanding, because what he did wasn't enough. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but that wasn't enough, wasn't ever enough.
Tony Stark was tired. But he had a planet to protect, even if everyone laughed at him whenever the prospect of alien invasions was brought up. He could count on one hand how many people he could trust, which was disheartening but then, what else was new?

Dr. Strange looks into 14, 000, 605 different futures on Titan and decides to take time into his own hands.
Stephen wakes in a scrub room in Metro General, with a new sense of purpose. Tony wakes on the sands of Afghanistan, chest throbbing. Loki & Thor wake in the gardens of Asgard, just really confused.
and the timeline continues to unravel from there.
