you're loveable, so loveable,
[ Locked to stillonlyhuman. ]
[ There are very few people that can get Tony to do something. He's a law unto himself, always has been, and he sways back and forth on the Avenger Initiative a little like his vision after a night out. It's not that he doesn't think it's a good idea, because the world is fucked, and a team of superheroes - kinda cool, right? But it's the team that gets him.
Who knew Fury had two words that would make Tony ink his name down in seconds? Captain America. What Fury probably didn't count on was the fact that he would charm his way through until he got Steve to Malibu. Like he'd let the greatest hero of all time be poked and prodded by whoever SHIELD have running around. And okay, technically he's not really supposed to be the one here, but after a week of Tony being nice, Pepper had cracked to save her nerves. From the small device concealed in his pocket, he checks the plane's progress for what feels like the twelth time today. (Okay, it's probably already in the twenties, but he has to retain some dignity, thank you). The air hanger is cool, air drifting in through the doors, and he's half tempted to see if he can make the guard crack a smile when his phone buzzes. Pepper. Behave. I'm putting myself out on the line for you. Don't mess this up. Tony's quick with the reply, like a child trying to pass notes in class. I am the picture of public consciousness. Now brb, going to tell Twitter I'm meeting a superhero.
With a smile he pushes his sunglasses back up the bridge of his nose, shoves the device and his phone away again, hands firmly in his pockets. Leaning back against the wall, Tony begins rehoming his perfectly nonchalant stance. What? It's a hobby. ]
