[Right now, Steve is the equivalent of a sleepy kitten. His eyelids feel heavier and heavier, and he keeps having to resist the urge to just fall asleep leaning against Tony. The rhythmic strokes feel good, and, hell, if having longer hair means he gets petted like this, he's going to end up looking like Thor soon.]
Probably the least he could do after I brought Thanos's invasion to his doorstep. I needed something to face an alien army with.
[Don't ask why he didn't have his shield then. It's part of that whole long story that will probably come out in an emotional rush at some point.]
That his name? All I know is that he's from Queens. [They've only met twice now, both in the middle of a fight. He hasn't exactly had a chance for a proper introduction.] You shoulda seen him the first time we met. I dunno what he was thinking, dragging a kid into a fight between Avengers. [Like he hadn't had Wanda out there, but that's different - Wanda's older, for one thing, and used to fights.]
