Seriously this made me so wrigglingly happy - you know, that kind of effervescent joy that just has to be expressed with a huge silly grin. It totally made my day awesome - I'm still all happy and excited about everything. :D
Tony is so - irrepressible! I was so surprised when I started writing him and his voice came through loud and clear. I totally blame your Tony voice for that. You write him so unbelievably perfect, so loud and clear and witty, the exact blend of genius and playboy that is just so completely Tony. I can't speak for your Steve, as I'm completely unfamiliar with him, but reading as someone who doesn't really know this character - I love him in this. He has his own voice, strong enough to match Tony's strength, so warm and stable and an absolute delight to read. Steve sounds like an awesome guy, the kind I'd love to just sit around and drink tea with. Sometimes, reading pairing-fic of any kind, it feels like the couple exists for the sake of getting to the porn - but in this, it is about how beautifully Tony and Steve match each other, how they fit so beautifully and yet are so vulnerably human, and the sex is not porn or slash, it's a glimpse into an actual relationship.
Anyway tl;dr I really like this story and you are awesome. :D
P.S. I had to save my response to the Jarvis thing for last because YOU BROKE MY BRAIN WITH IT. skjfhgdhf. If you do write such a thing, expect an incoherent comment from me consisting entirely of the letter "E."
