Avengers Mini-Tower, Sunday afternoon

[heroic_jawline]

Steve knew that this day was tough for Tony and that was why he'd left him to his own devices for a few hours to bang around in the lab and get some of those emotions out. He'd also sent a card up to the Tony of his universe up in New York: with Rhodey temporarily out of commission, he didn't want Tony to feel alone or forgotten about on Father's Day. (It turned out that no one made a "sorry the guy I know in the war turned out to be a huge disappointment as a father but I think you're swell" card. Steve hoped a "Thinking of You" and a bottle of the midend (for Tony) Scotch that he like conveyed the same sort of thing.)

Steve was up in the gym trying to get the hang of riding on the jetpowered rollerskates Tony had made for him. He turned too sharply as he ran out of ballroom floor, hit the ground hard and winced as his shoulder did something it shouldn't have. "JARVIS?" he called from the floor. "Can you ask Tony to bring up the first aid kit? But first be sure to tell him I'm not that hurt."

"Good," Steve said. "Pick your favorite terrible movie. Maybe with sharks."

[imafuturist]

"That one with the guy who looks like Nick it is," Tony replied cheerfully.

[heroic_jawline]

"Please," Steve said, laughing. "Sangria will only make it better."

[imafuturist]

"Need any help with getting into comfortable clothes for this?" Since Steve was the injured one this time.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve smiled. "I definitely need help."

Well, not really, but yes to having Tony helping.

[imafuturist]

Tony kissed him again. "Sweats kind of day."

[heroic_jawline]

Steve smiled against his mouth. "You know where I keep my Stark sweats."

[imafuturist]

"Now I know you're being sweet with me," Tony replied, tugging him along.

[heroic_jawline]

"You deserve sweet," Steve said with a grin.

[imafuturist]

"And you deserve to be pampered." And to make Tony feel useful. Same thing!

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed. "I really will be fine as soon as the food comes."

[imafuturist]

"Yes, but... I want to." Look at that communication!

[heroic_jawline]

Steve leaned in for another kiss. "I'd love for you to."

[imafuturist]

Tony gave a playful little "Yaaay" at that before tugging Steve along to the bedroom.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed. "I love when you get excited like that."

[imafuturist]

"I like taking care of people." Usually by buying them things. "It's nice."

[heroic_jawline]

"You're very good at it," Steve said, heading for the sweatpants drawer, "but I'm not going to tell anyone about it. It'll be our secret."

[imafuturist]

"Oh, is that it?" Tony said, looking for a nice, loose t-shirt. Which was harder than you'd think.

[heroic_jawline]

Well, Steve loved himself a smedium! He smiled at Tony. "Unless you want more people to know you're a secret softie?"

[imafuturist]

"They wouldn't believe you," Tony replied, struggling here. Damn it, smediumSteve!

[heroic_jawline]

"I'm very convincing," Steve said, trying to help with the unhelpful shirt. "Maybe I should just not wear one?"

He was trying to be helpful! Kinda!

[imafuturist]

"Well, if you don't want to..."

Tony? Not complaining.

[heroic_jawline]

"Just don't let me spill paella on myself," Steve teased.

[imafuturist]

"Not exactly the sort of thing I'd want to eat off of you," Tony agreed, making a face.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed. "Eating a shrimp off my bare chest not really your thing?" he teased.
