Usually when Tony Stark threw a party, there was no questioning of the fact that it was a Tony Stark Party. Usually he had money to waste and the ability to hire other people to plan or to rent out big, grand spaces. Technically, he still had that money; it seemed to work whenever he went somewhere through the doors that took credit cards, anyway. But it meant a whole lot less here than it had back home. Most of the time he didn’t even mind, but he had to admit that this time, he might have liked to notch things up a bit more. He would have rented a whole stadium, probably. Maybe have bought the Dodgers and brought them back to New York just because Steve complained about it so much.
But.
For what they had, for the work they’d put into it, everything looked…. good. It was a Tony Stark party on a more homely, low key scale.
The baseball diamond they’d found was in some abandoned city, which meant there was no bothering the neighbors, and Carol had worked rather aggressively on writing up team rosters for a game, as well as providing drinks (as usual). Clint had shown up as the MVP of the day in terms of bringing both tacky fourth of July decorations (cups, sunglasses, noisemakers) and pies. Nyx and the Bodega brothers (or whatever they were calling themselves these days) provided the food. Music had been set up.
Tony brought himself. And, well, fireworks. But he’d let someone else have the privilege of setting them off later.
