Stark Industries- Sunday

[thatwaslucky]

After two days of this, Rey fully expected that she'd walk in and her boss would be five, or the gremlin at least be even smaller, but so far at least it was a normal enough day here.

Mostly she was having to fix toys that people had broken and brought in. As someone who'd never had toys aside from what she could make herself, she did spend some time looking up what certain things were meant to do. At least twice you might hear her say something like "That seems excessive."

Steve nodded, very solemn for nine-who-looked-six-ish.

"Do you need anything?" Rey asked, since she didn't know if there was anyone upstairs who could help out.

[heroic_jawline]

"Maybe a hug?" Steve mumbled.

[thatwaslucky]

Rey was going to get very good at giving out hugs to kids. She didn't hate that.

"Of course," she said, holding out her arms.

[heroic_jawline]

"Thanks," Steve said into her shirt.

[thatwaslucky]

"You okay?" she asked, not letting go until he wanted to.

[heroic_jawline]

"I'm okay," Steve mumbled.

"Should I bring back cookies after my break?"

Listen. These were things that made Rey feel better, she'd offer it to others, too.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve looked up. "What kind of cookies?"

[thatwaslucky]

"I din know, what kind did you want?"

She absolutely didn't know how many kinds there were.

[heroic_jawline]

"Oatmeal raisin?"

Steve, what is wrong with you.

[thatwaslucky]

"All right, you'll get oatmeal raisin."

And some chocolate chip because Steve, what.

[heroic_jawline]

Oatmeal AND raisins! A Great Depression dream come true!

"Thank you," he said politely.

[thatwaslucky]

"I think it's what I'm here for."

Seriously, this was just her weekend.

[heroic_jawline]

"You hand out cookies and hugs all the time?" Steve beamed at her. "Best job ever! Like Santa!"

[thatwaslucky]

Rey barely stopped herself from questioning Santa, whom she did not get.

"It's turning out to not be terrible," she admitted. Even if it was just a weekend thing.
