I really enjoyed this. It's just very... cute, somehow. And there's something very satisfying about the idea of the Avengers and the rest of Tony's friends (well, Pepper and Rhodey, who along with Happy are basically Tony's entire compliment of non-Avenger friends) looking out for Tony's well being like this -- possibly because the times Tony really ought to have been on suicide watch in canon so often go unacknowledged by everyone else.
Carol already took me to the museum,” Tony told him over his shoulder, bare feet padding into the living room, “So you're going to have to come up with something else.”
*grins* I love how Tony knows exactly what Steve's plans were going to be, without Steve even having to mention them.
As Tony sat with a grumble, Steve dug into the portfolio. He pulled out two drawing pads, one large and one small, and two pencils.
Steve keeps art supplies in his portfolio along with his shield! *loves*
He was fairly certain he had just gotten a glimpse at the inner workings of Tony Stark's mind. It seemed like he had started with a cityscape – it looked like one of his technical drawings – but at one point he had moved on to a tree, then the squirrel Steve had chosen, then had decided to work out some kind of math problem to the side, then (to Steve's mild horror) a rough drawing of some mangled body laying in the street which had then been scribbled through. Currently, he was working on a sketch of the Iron Man armor, complete with a few scribbled notes here and there.
I like the way Tony starts with a sort of "technical" drawing of a city, then makes a token attempt at actually drawing what's in front of him, then a brief segue into drawing-as-therapy, and then just gives up and starts working on the armor. Also the differences in their drawing style, that Tony does what's essentially mechanical drafting while Steve sketches.

A couple tiny things:
Tony signed, but let him in anyways.
"Sighed," I think? And "let him in anyway."
fling off his outer ware
Should be "outerwear."
In conclusion: banner = made of awesome.
