Standing next to Iron Man is where Steve feels the most comfortable and the most confused. The man is a solid ally on the field and a
fine friend off. He doesn’t need to see the man’s real face to know these things. But just one look at the man in battle with laser like beams shooting
from this hands make Steve remember the science fiction novels he’d poured over with Arnie where people in the future all had jet packs and strange hair-do’s and lived in upscale houses and all had flying cars and perfect families, at least until the aliens always showed up. The future doesn’t seem much like
those old stories, but watching Iron Man shoot through the sky and pull a barrel roll in victory makes Steve grin and look forward to learning more about
this future he’s found himself in.
