Apartment Above Stark Industries, Wednesday morning

"Tony," Steve murmured, touching Tony's shoulder and giving it a gentle shake. Steve, of course, had been up since 5 and had already gone for a run. "Get up if you want to see the super blood blue moon...thing. It's going to be rising soon."

Tony grumbled and shoved his head under his pillow for a moment. "Will I get coffee if I do?"

[heroic_jawline]

"Of course you will," Steve said. "Caffeine and science. I know what you like."

[imafuturist]

"Oh, Captain Rogers," Tony said, yawning as he sat up. "You've discovered my weaknesses."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve gave him a kiss on the forehead. "I like to think so," he said, smiling fondly. "Coffee's in the kitchen."

[imafuturist]

Tony hummed and leaned into him for a moment. "My love for you is all encompassing. As long as you make me coffee in the morning."

[heroic_jawline]

"Oh, I figured that out very early on," Steve said, chuckling. "I've taken to bribing my other Tony with coffee, too."

But not to get him to fall in love, too, because that would be weird.

[imafuturist]

Steve clearly couldn't help how loveable he was.

"I feel like I've given you the keys to the kingdom with this knowledge," he teased, shuffling out of bed to get that promised coffee.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve gave him another fond look--newly awake Tony was one of his favorites--and chuckled. "Anyone who spends five minutes with you notices you're practically attached to a coffee mug." He tilted his head. "You don't have an IV drip in the suit for it, do you?"

[imafuturist]

"No, but that is a good idea." And JARVIS was quietly deleting any plans for that very thing. Because he was a responsible AI.

[heroic_jawline]

"Yeah, but hot liquids and quick turns seems like a bad combo," Steve said, pouring out two cups of coffee and shoving one gently towards Tony.

[imafuturist]

"The plans also involved taping protein bars to the inside of your shield," Tony replied, smiling as he accepted the coffee. "Just in case."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed. "That's because of New Year's Eve, huh?"

[imafuturist]

"And it's good for when you go on missions! Growing boy and all that," he teased.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve reached out and ruffled Tony's hair. "Brat," he said fondly.

[imafuturist]

"You'd think I was replaced by Skrull if I wasn't," Tony replied with a quick smile. "Are we braving the roof here or do I actually need to put on clothes to go out?"

[heroic_jawline]

"You'll definitely need shoes, but I think we'd be okay on the roof," Steve said.

[imafuturist]

"Shoes, I can do," he replied, still keeping the coffee cup close to his chest. "Thank you for not dragging me out for a moonlight run."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve leaned in and kissed him. "I pick my battles."

[imafuturist]

"Ooo, I'm taking that as a compliment," Tony said, snagging hold of Steve's shirt to kiss him properly. "Grab a blanket. I expect cuddling to keep me warm."

[heroic_jawline]

"Yes, sir," Steve murmured, smiling against Tony's mouth.

[imafuturist]

Well, with an answer like that, Tony j7st had to kiss him again, trying hard not to smile into it.

Not smile too much at least.

[heroic_jawline]

"And then you can see the moon and call Bruce and be all nerdy about it with him," Steve said.

[imafuturist]

Tony snorted at that. "I think Clint will be the one calling him and demanding to talk to the Hulk about the awesome moon."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve burst out laughing. "I hadn't thought about that possibility," he admitted.

[imafuturist]

"That is a friendship I have deep regrets about encouraging. For the sake of my property." So many destroyed doors. So, so many.
