Veldeia writes a truly wonderful Steve and Tony, and so many really great and different takes on the relationship.

Highly recommend Kludged Together

Summary: When he cut his morning jog short to join Tony Stark on a reconnaissance mission off the East Coast, Steve sure wasn’t expecting to end up stuck on a life raft in the middle of the ocean, his hand knuckle-deep in Stark's chest.

and

Presenteeism

Summary: Tony thinks piloting the armor remotely while letting the others believe he’s wearing it is a good plan, until he realizes he’s not hung over, but actually quite ill.

Steve thinks something’s off with Tony today, but he has no clue what that might be, and since Tony says he’s good to go, they’ll proceed with the mission anyway.

(Basically, that trope where Tony is sick but is too stubborn to admit it, with a slight twist. Fill for my Stony bingo prompt “armor”.)

Veldeia's entire Cap-Ironman Bingo 2015 series (https://archiveofourown.org/series/319265) is full of wonderful Stony fics. I highly encourage you to check out their work!
