"You'll never know what happens if you give up now. Your life could be great here." he told her, knowing it was one of the only hopes that had kept him going over the past months and so far his hopes seemed to be answered pretty often.
"You know Tony would live in a tent in the woods if that was what'd make you happy right?" Steve asked, glancing down to her. "I know he seems...a little unyielding sometimes but I've seen him around you AJ, he'd do anything for you. As long as he had his tower and his toys to go back to now and then I'm sure he wouldn't mind finding..or building some place smaller." he murmured softly, "But...I know it's hard, all of a sudden having all this stuff right at your fingers when you've had to work hard for everything in your life. Maybe you could find another job while you're waiting on Richie. Something where you could stay inside and not be so active but still feel useful. It helps me, to know I'm still earning my keep."
