[What does an insomniac superhero do at night? They wander off the pool house and build their own working area in the underground labs]

Threaded | Flat

[ he also gets followed into said underground labs by another sleepless superhero using stealth. but he still knocks on the door because it's only polite. ]

Tony?

[TODAY THERE IS A SIGN ON THE LAB DOOR READING "IRON MAN'S SECRET BASE NO STEVE'S ALLOWED"

And inside there are new things, namely one sketchbook, colored pencils, a box of tissues and a couch.]

[TONIGHT, the door is open and Tony is in his work area talking to a... teddy bear. Which is no longer missing an arm.

Tony is showing the bear pictures on a screen.]

Alright little guy, that's mom.

[the picture is of Steve]

[ well, there were no high-functioning genius billionaire playboy philanthropist idiots in the pool house when Steve went to check in today, so this is his next stop. he gives a knock before opening the door to look in for Tony. ]

[This special night, if one were to stand just outside the door they would hear two voices coming from inside. Tony sounds considerably more animated than usual.]

How on Earth did he do that?

Is that a rhetorical question, sir?

No, no. You know what? I didn't miss you and— ow, dammit Slick.

There is a first-aid kit under the table.

I'm fine it's not... I take my eyes off you for five seconds.

Sir, may I suggest childproofing the lab?

Yes, good idea. I'll get right on that.

[guess who's finally visiting. And knocking]

[tonight, there is a cat infiltrating Tony Stark's base through one of the various holes in the wall because cats don't need to knock, what. it quietly pads in, taking in the surroundings.]

[ it's a bit later than his customary franship visiting hours when Steve knocks on the door tonight. ]

[DISTRESSING CONVERSATIONS WITH THE AIs AFTER DISCOVERING DEAGING IS A THING THAT HAPPENS]

... okay, okay, I probably wouldn't ruin anything if I were over fifteen. But that's a huge probably. We need to find a way to lock me out.

[ SO AFTER DROPPING A BLEEDING TEAMMATE OFF AT THE HOSPITAL AND also heckling him the whole way, it's time for srs discussions. ]

We should head to the pool house, let 'em know where Clint is.

[after breakfast @supersoldiers house, Tony has spent a few hours in his workshop drowning himself in projects because that is how he copes]

[ when Steve comes to the workshop today, he's carrying Bucky Bear with him.

it also comes on the tail of being completely MIA yesterday, for whom it may concern. ]

[ today there is a supersoldier in the workshop when Tony gets there, chatting with Jarvis and holding his sketchpad up for Slick, who has a pencil in his claws. ]

[Tony is tinkering in his workshop and the place is considerably messier than usual. Slick is rolling around with a broom like a good bot.]

[ knocking! ]

[WHAT IS THE PROPER ETIQUETTE FOR VISITING A RICH JACKASS IN HIS SECRET LAIR . . .

settles for knocking at the door frame with his metal hand after a moment.]
