Someone talk to me about Tony and Natasha being friends, because my dash is full of negativity where Natasha only tolerates Tony or outright hates him, and I think we should talk more about Tony and Natasha where:
- Tony’s idea of “revenge” for Nat stabbing him in IM2 is sending twelve dozen donuts to her office at SHIELD (this spawns an epic prank war between the two)
- Tony never takes Natalie Rushman’s employee info out of SI’s databases, and if she ever needs it, she’s got a rock-solid alias waiting for her (all of Natalie’s paychecks go straight into a secure account, she’s got stock options, and she’s built up a good couple months of vacation time).
- Nat gives Tony a private number to reach her “in case of emergencies”. She’s not at all surprised when she gets a call a week later because Tony wants to surprise Pepper with a romantic, homemade dinner and just set the kitchen on fire
- they have movie marathons where they watch WarGames and Swordfish and mock Hollywood’s idea of computer hacking
Talk to me about Tony and Natasha, please
