Not surprisingly, considering the fact that pissing off Natasha was the surest form of suicide, everyone was filing into the big living room that night, the water screen floor having changed from the blue gentle waves to the reflection of a starry night on the water, their feet making ripples in the perfect reflection of the night sky. The ceiling was lit up in the same sky pattern, so realistic you could see fake clouds gliding over the virtual moon, and shooting stars shoot by quickly. The stars would dim and grow brighter, sea breeze appearing even stronger in the beauty of the night. The whole team was sitting mesmerized, either running their feet across the fake water or openly gaping at the sky/ceiling.
Everyone was already there minus Tony, Natasha and Clint curled up on the main Cloud Couch, trying very hard to make it look like they weren't touching, Thor and Steve had both claimed chairs and were curled up happily, but Bruce was still pacing waiting for Tony nervously, hoping to god he wouldn't have to go get him when finally the genius in question sauntered into the living room with 5 baskets in his hands. Bruce dropped down into a chair relived watching the genius curiously as he walked up to him and handed him one. With a raised eyebrow he was amazed to find the basket full of White Chocolate Chip cookies, fresh from the oven. His favorite.
Tony then strode up to Steve and Thor, shoving a basket of Peanut Butter cookies in Steve's hands, and a mixed basket of random sweets, including Pop Tarts in Thor's. Without even stopping to look at Steve's shocked face he continued around the room, dropping the basket of Double Chocolate Chips cookies in Clint's lap and the Sugar in Natasha's. Then he just collapsed in a chair, mumbling "Movie snacks."
They all fell silent for a moment, completely shocked, and Bruce as willing to bet Tony had just baked them all their favorites. They started at him for a moment; Tony pretended not to notice, instead typing away on his phone. Bruce could still see the nervousness in his shoulders, and he quickly decided to help him out.
"So what movie guys?" Everyone turned to him considering him for a moment before Clint shrugged. "Matrix?" Bruce shook his head vehemently. "No, that will confuse Steve and Thor beyond all reason. It still confuses some people FROM here." Clint nodded sadly in agreement and Tony's head popped up. "Hey the whole point of this trip is to do the whole relate-empathies thing right? Let's watch something we can all relate too, like Prince of Persia The Sands of Time."
Everyone's head turned to the genius, waiting for him to explain his strange reasoning. Tony just smirked and rolled his eyes in his usual "Oh poor me I have to explain everything" manner. "Seriously guys. It hits a little close to home for all of us. Warfare, swords and shields, brotherly bonds and brother's betrayal that stuff for Thor, Steve has the whole honor, duty, out of time confusion. Bruce has the whole curse never wanted to bear thing going on, Clint has tons in common with Dustan, the acrobatics, orphan boy taken in and trained thing. For Natasha there's the whole people being trained from the time their young for others purposes, networks of carefully guarded secrets and stuff. Then for me there's the whole beloved and trusted uncle stabbing you in the back and trying to get you killed thing, so yeah, and that's just the basics."
Everyone openly gaped at the genius's openness at how well he knew of their struggles and things that they would relate to, and his open confession of something personal. Natasha, Clint, Steve and Bruce all knew that was a sign of trust, even if Steve wasn't aware of everything.
"Umm…Yeah Tony. Turn it on." Tony just nodded lying back in the chair and rolling his wrist gesturing for JARVIS to roll it, and the screen slowly lit up. Bruce smiled softly at Tony and Tony returned a small grin before Clint interrupted the peaceful silence with "HOLY MOTHER OF COOKIES STARK, HOW THE HELL CAN THEY TASTE SO GOOD!?"
