Apartment at the Top of the Unnecessarily Tall For the Island Stark Industries, Saturday Morning

[imafuturist]

Tony had escaped the radio station with a slow moving garland snake trailing behind him. Which was pretty much normal for this place. It wasn't nearly as fun as yesterday, but he was still just going to go with it.

"You can get the next one," he called to the garland as he pushed the close doors button on the very much not overkill, Steve elevator.

Then took a deep breath as the ding sounded to announce his arrival at the appropriate floor.

"Honey, I'm home."

Well, the good news was that Steve wasn't hanging from the ceiling like when Tony'd rescued him at Wanda's. The bad news was there were a couple of garlands starting to box Steve into a corner.

"Hi, sweetheart," Steve replied with a wave. "Patty's killed two garlands already."

[imafuturist]

"Do you want a gauntlet?" Tony offered, giving Patriot an approving look.

[heroic_jawline]

"Please," Steve said with a little laugh.

[imafuturist]

Tony gave him a sympathetic look and nodded as he called for both gauntlets to come up from the lab. It was perfectly normal to have flying, robotic gloves come up the stairs, right? Wanda was cool with that?

"Maybe we got spoiled yesterday," he said, hand out for it to form around.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve grinned. "That was a fun day."

They probably traumatized the mistletoe a bit.

[imafuturist]

Just a tiiiiny bit.

Tony beamed back at him, peeling off a gauntlet to offer over to him.

[heroic_jawline]

"Thanks," Steve said, putting it onto his left hand like it was his shield.

[imafuturist]

"It'll be an interesting weekend at least," Tony said, kicking at one that was slithering toward his leg.

[heroic_jawline]

"At least the last two are done so they can't make the party strange," Steve said.

[imafuturist]

"Oh, I think the island will figure out a way to manage it," Tony replied dryly.

[heroic_jawline]

"Well, that should make the party more interesting."

[imafuturist]

"We will make it work," Tony decided. "It can't be any worse that HYDRA attacking back home."

[heroic_jawline]

"Well, now you've just jinxed it," Steve said, shooting the gauntlet at a garland that was getting too close.

[imafuturist]

Tony made an affronted noise. "I did not!"

He really did.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve grinned. "But you did."

[imafuturist]

"You're just being superstitious." Which clearly Tony, a man of science, was not.

[heroic_jawline]

"I'd say cautious rather than superstitous," Steve said.

[imafuturist]

"I think we'll be just fine," Tony insisted, digging that hole deeper.

[heroic_jawline]

"I'll order in some water in case the taps go," Steve decided.

[imafuturist]

"...good plan."

[heroic_jawline]

"I thought you'd like that planning," Steve said, leaning in for a quick kiss. Not that they needed any since yesterday.

[imafuturist]

Tony laughed and kissed him back. "I thought maybe you were kissed out."

[heroic_jawline]

"There's no such thing," Steve told him Very Solemnly.

[imafuturist]

"Oh, good answer," Tony said. "Well practiced."

[heroic_jawline]

"Thank you," Steve said. "I'm glad all that time in front of the mirror paid off."
