a drabble response of the more introspective sort - I hope you like it, though it doesn't stick exactly to the script!

For a billionaire, Tony Stark gets injured surprisingly often.
It’s not that Steve thinks that Iron Man does a bad job—he has seen his friend in action saving lives, and doesn’t doubt that he does his best every single time he’s called to action. But the fact remains that it’s very common to see the Avengers benefactor either bruised underneath fancy concealer or walking somewhat stiffly. It worries Steve. He finds himself storing first aid supplies all over the mansion just in case, and nagging Jarvis for updates on “Sir’s health” whenever Stark takes ill.

He can’t help himself.
