One of my favourite things about the Steve/Tony dynamic is that Tony has the chance to introduce Steve to practically a whole new world- so many of the defining cultural things that define our society- Elvis, the Beatles, LoTR (there was this fantastic moment in this one fic, I forget which, where Steve found out that Tolkien had written a sequel to the Hobbit...) or even Star Wars. And Tony might not go to that many movies because he can just see them at home, in his own personal movie theater. *g*

And then there's the fact that Tony is such a ridonculous GEEK- I have no doubt he and Steve would argue endlessly over classic cars versus modern ones, snail mail versus the internet, the whole nine yards. I can't see Steve as a technophobe, though, more that he's convinced the old ways are... I don't know, less soulless, somehow?

Gossip? I can see Steve needing to know about the other heroes, especially the Avengers, because they're his family. Tony? Just loves gossip.

You know, for a non-Marvel fan, I actually spend an insane amount of time thinking about this pairing...
