All the Small Things

Just some random Tony and Natasha headcanons…

• Tony and Natasha find solidarity in being the shortest of the Avengers. (Yes, Bruce has pointed out the fact he’s only a smidge taller than Tony, to which Tony pointed out that he doesn’t “act” short, so he doesn’t get to join the club).
• They speak the most languages of all the Avengers combined (besides Thor). They like to randomly challenge each other by going a whole day or week speaking Portuguese or Hindi or Japanese. Tony’s better at learning new languages and expanding vocabularies, but Natasha’s way better at accents and tonal variations.
• Weirdly enough, they have a similiar taste in music. They both love classic rock as well as orchestral music. (They also both play piano).
• They’re nerds. Absolute nerds. They’ve made a game out of trying to find pop culture references the other doesn’t get (no winner yet).
• They have the same, strange mix of refined and garbage taste. They will drink fine wine with a Big Mac and cheese fries, don’t doubt them.
• Tony is fully aware Natasha likes to “borrow” his shirts and sweaters and hoodies (and basically anything else that will remotely fit her). He’s not upset by it at all; he just takes note of which ones she particularly likes and tries to make sure he washes them instead of losing them in a corner of the workshop for months on end. (There’s a part of him that wonders if it isn’t just a ploy to get him to remember to sort his laundry more often).
• Natasha is the first person Tony has ever actually, properly spoken to about the cave and Yinsen.
• Tony is actually a decent cook (just not in cramped little jet kitchenettes), but Natasha helped him refine his skills. They enjoy cooking and sometimes even baking together. (“Avengers Assemble!” doesn’t bring the team together the fastest; “Stark and Romanov made lasagna!” does).
