[paragon]

Thanks, Tony.

[ goes to sit down on the couch. ]

You too, Jarvis.

[biggerstick]

[flips his largest monitor so they can watch the movie from the couch and flops down besides Steve, holding a bowl of popcorn]

I'm not doing anything.

[and they can sit down to watch Monty Python and the Holy Grail thanks JARVIS]

[paragon]

You made popcorn.

[ reaching for some and already cracking a smile at the credits. ]

[biggerstick]

[having some too]

It's not a real movie if there's no popcorn.

[paragon]

I agree.

[ watchinggg. ]

[biggerstick]

[Tony is unashamedly delighted by some of it. He gets a kick especially out of the "just a flesh wound" scene]

[paragon]

[ Steve enjoys it more quietly, if Tony were to look he would appear amused and interested, the humor definitely catching him off-guard sometimes, but not in a bad way, and he laughs occasionally. ]

[biggerstick]

I'd never actually watched this before.

[paragon]

Hey, me neither, whaddya know.

[biggerstick]

They're a pop culture icon. You'll understand more references now.

[paragon]

[ huffs. ]

[biggerstick]

What? I thought you'd like that.

[paragon]

Next time we see Thor I'll wipe the floor with him.

[biggerstick]

Oh boy, Thor versus twenty-first century. That's gonna be fun.

[paragon]

Can you imagine him watching that one?

[biggerstick]

Not at all, I can't even picture him having toast. How would that even go? "What is this Midgardian bread? It is too plain! I am not satisfied!"

[paragon]

[ huffs a laugh. ]

He seems like a whole loaf kinda guy.

[biggerstick]

He's... well, I don't know if dating is the word. But he's acquainted with Jane Foster. Have you met her?

[paragon]

. . . huh. Yeah, I have. She didn't say anything about it.

[biggerstick]

She had no reason to. She didn't know about— [sudden pause, but he takes a deep breath and continues] New York until I told her.

[paragon]

[ gives him a very small smile to acknowledge it. ]

We talked about it some, oddly enough. She was tellin' me about uh, wormholes.

[biggerstick]

[reaches out to grab Steve's arm, and takes a very deep breath. He's good, rly, he can do this]

... that's the... [he gestures upwards with his free hand] portal. That's what they're called.

[paragon]

. . . shit.

[biggerstick]

[he's gripping him pretty tightly but that aside he seems to be fine]

It's fine, I'm fine... a road of self-discovery. I'll have JARVIS make a list. "Words that make Tony freak out." We can make a game out of it.

[paragon]

Doesn't sound like much fun for anyone.
