Who: Tony Stark (MCU) and Pepper Potts-Stark
What: Checking in on each other
Where: Their apartment
When: Backdated to Sunday night after the battle.
Tony kept telling himself he was retired, but he knew that when the battle came, he’d suit up. Especially since every time he heard that Pepper had activated her suit, it made his heart beat faster than he thought possible. He was anxious every time his phone reported that her suit was online. It’s what they’d planned on, and he knew that… but it was different seeing it in action. He wondered how Pepper did it, if this was how she felt every time he went zipping off into the unknown.
Realistically, it had only been a few weeks since he’d planned on suiting up to go on the time heist… but it felt like much longer than that when he suited up. The fight had been surreal. Santa had never exactly been high on Tony’s list of potential villains. More than that, there was an unexpected anxiousness as he saw the teenagers joining the fray, especially the young ones like Peni and Molly. They were hard to keep an eye on, and it was something that he’d tell himself he would worry about later.
By the time Tony had come home, Steve had been found, and all their family had been accounted for, it was late. Tony had swept his daughter off to bed, read her a story and gave her a kiss on the head before seeking out his wife. They had both seen each other, both saw that they were physically alright, but he still needed to check in on her.
Tony flopped himself onto the couch next to her, and leaned forward to press a bristly kiss to her temple. “Some night, huh?” He murmured next to her.
