Title: Pen Is Mightier
Author: revenant_oozi
Summary: Comment_fic prompt; Tony thinks it's hilarious that Steve still reads newpapers.
Rating: G
Warnings: none
A/N: I feel like 'sailboat hat' is the correct term, but if anyone knows what I'm talking about and actually knows what it's called, please correct me.



Steve could understand the appeal, if he really tried. Being able to have everything you wanted to know at reach, even have a voice programmed to recite it to you. Not that it didn't creep him out. And he still didn't understand what a 'feed' was, no matter how many times Tony explained it, even with the flailing hand gestures.

"Steve," Tony grabbed the little phone away from him, poking furiously at the keys, "Your fingers aren't too big for this. The keypad adjusts. Quit whining." Before he can even hand it back, Steve is back to holding the printed word close to his face, though it would be futile to think you could hid a big blocky blond man behind a few sheets of recycled paper.

"Rogers you're not listening. Steve. Steve you can totally hear me. Steve Steve Steve."

Tony leaned forward in his chair to try and see around the corner where his victim had fled, "Steve? Hey, I'm on fire you better come back. And your ants escaped from their farm. And Bogart's ghost is here, says he wants your autograph..."

Steve stomps back in, slamming a hand down over the paper left on the table, watching Tony with a painfully smug eyebrow raised. "And this," He removes his hand, leaving Tony to remove the silly putty, now printed with a reversed image of Dilbert, from the newspaper, "Is why your phone-thing sucks."

Tony smiles -almost entirely because Steve Rogers just said something sucks- wadding up the pink blob and tossing it against the wall.

"Steve, let me show you a thing called 'applications'..."

"Only if I get to show you how to make something called a 'sailboat hat'."
