“There is food, yes. A few days ago, our gracious hosts dropped food into the fishbowl for us. Nothing fresh, that we’ve still got to find for ourselves, but packaged things, dry goods, cans, that we’ve got.”
He takes a moment to wish that this wasn’t so hard. That they could just talk and plan and be normal people without all the complicated shit, but Tony doesn’t know how to do that, and even if he recognizes that there are stupid problems between them, he doesn’t know how to navigate around them. Where’s Pepper when he needs her? Or JARVIS? They might be able to sort him out.
“Yeah, okay.” He lets out a breath, gives himself a mental shake, and nods. “Sure. Food. No Beanie Weenies, though. Everyone keeps trying to pawn them off on people and I’m tired of them. And for the record, I’m not doing anything today. Or at least, I wasn’t.”
With Steve back, there’s no need to search for him, and that cuts Tony’s workload – or what passes for it these days – considerably in half.
