“Coffee isn’t enough,” Tony says almost immediately, latching onto the option that will allow them a little more time together. “And we’ll be swarmed at a Starbucks even if you wear a beanie and a scowl.” Steve would stand out, more than Tony did. Everyone’s sporting Stark facial hair these days after all, and everyone tried to dress like him too. Ironically or otherwise. “Surprise me on the restaurant.”

He didn’t even put restrictions on that. He’d be as amused at Chuck-E Cheez as he would be at something fancy and hard to get a table for.

The point was not to take over here. Not to drown Steve in his own muchness.
