Hey Bart, can we stop for ice cream?
WHO| Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Dave Strider
WHAT| Tony and Steve go out looking for some more food, but they find Dave.
WHEN| Start of week three.
WHERE| Food Court.
WARNINGS| Tooth achingly cute family-like moments maybe?
Tony had said he was bored enough to go look for food, he had announced it to the room and had expected no one to care. Annoyingly, they did care. Or at least Steve did, declaring that he was going to go along with Tony.
He really wanted to believe that it was because Steve was also bored, but then Tony's own record kind of stood against that theory, what with being alone for ten minutes in their first arena was what lead to Tony dying, and while being alone with Bucky had managed to cause both of them to have panic attacks due to their own personal traumas. So he was trying not to get huffy about this as they made it safely down to the food court level without killing themselves on escalators.
He wasn't doing a good job of not being huffy, even so much as mumbling.
"You know I stopped needing a nanny at least two and a half decades ago."
Of course forgetting that he had only told Bruce that he had a nanny when he was still a teenager.

"Even I like to have some secrets to myself."
Though really, even if Tony had thought enough about it to actually considering telling Steve, he would have just figured Dave had already told him, what with them both on the same floor and all. But then Tony also isn't aware how much of an Ironette Dave really is.
When the topic of Frozen Yogurt comes up, Tony snorts.
"Not that much of a step up. But you can have berries and chocolate sprinkles at the same time. I'm game."
Tony will never say it out loud, but aside from never having enough of or the right tools, the other thing he tends to hate about the arenas is the fact he generally lacks the ability to just graze on food. Which is his general style of eating.
Then after that is the fact people are dying for no reason other than entertainment.

"You can call it terrible all you like, but if I didn't know how to live off greasy pizza and fries I would have expired long ago." He sniffs, like he isn't a shade skinnier than he was when he left for prison. As if that's possible, given how lanky he is already.
"I haven't had frogurt since I was like. Twelve. And I swear to god, that was not a few months ago, don't even start." He shoots Tony a look, padding ahead toward the food court. "Sure hope it isn't filled with potassium benzoate." There's never a bad time for a Simpsons reference.
