"We try to have a movie night at least once a week." Tony explained. "We vote on what movie we want to see and spend four hours trying to get through it."
"Four hours?" Steve repeated.
"Steve, the first hour or so is spent trying to figure out which movie to watch. It's very rare that we can agree on one movie. The last movie night ended up with Clint getting a bruised jaw. Said something about Natasha not knowing a good movie when she sees it."
"She sounds like a tough one." Steve mused.
"Oh, she is." Tony answered. "It's best to try to stay on her good side and don't go anywhere near her guns and knives. She also hides one or two on her. So...be extra careful."
Steve slowly nodded, taking in the information Tony just told him. Natasha seemed like the kind of woman who could deliver a blow strong enough to send a man flying onto his back.
The two went back to trying to figure what movie might be good enough for the team to watch together. Tony was letting Steve look more since he wanted to see if Steve's preference of movies was still the same.
Before the accident, Steve was, of course, into the classics. The movies that he had seen in his youth that were now called classics.
The inventor watched as Steve did look over the titles of some of the older movies but then skipped back to the current date movies.
Tony felt that this might be a negative sign.
So far, Steve had only had one memory recall and none of them were about to tell him the real truth behind it. They were sure that Steve was going to call them out about his true age and about not looking like it.
"This looks good." Steve said as he pulled out a movie about a young man getting sucked into a computerized world and finding his thought to be dead father.
Not good. Tony thought to himself as he tried to keep the concern off his face. He went for something new instead of the black and white. Not a good sign.
The Iron Man operator made a mental note to tell Bruce about it when he saw him again. They were all starting to fear that Steve had hit his head harder than they believed since he still wasn't remembering anything.
That itself was a bad thing since they had gotten word again that Hydra was still on the move. With the only person who knew their plans right with them, the Avengers were hoping that Steve could at least remember that.
He had seen what Hydra could do, what they were capable of. That was why he had insisted on going on the mission alone. He didn't want the rest of his team to see just how much he had to put up with from one enemy during the war.
Not to mention, they still weren't sure if there was any possibility that Red Skull was around or not.
Steve had managed to make it through the years but he never really officially told them what happened to Schmidt that day he crashed the plane into the ice.
Everyone from that time and this time assumed that Schmidt was dead from contact with the Tesseract. But without Steve really telling the whole story, none of them knew for sure. They could only make assumptions.
When he gets his memories back, I'm making him sit in front of a video camera and make him tell his life story from the time of his birth to where he is now. Tony vowed to himself then smirked. Then I could make it into a documentary and put it on one of those history channels Capsicle likes to watch.
