Sania: *calls out from her bedroom* Daddy?

Steve: *walks into the room* Yes, Nia?

Sania: *taps her notebook* I'm supposed to name at least five rare animals for science class. Can you help?

Steve: Of course! Let's see, there's pink, yellow, white -

Sania: Aren't those colors?

Steve: No, they're animals.

Sania: What?

Steve: Yeah! Just write them down. There's also hamburger -

Sania: That's a food, dad.

*later*

Natasha: *calls from the hallway* Steve? The kids said you helped them with their schoolwork. James told me you taught him math today.

Steve: Yeah, you know I'm good at math.

Natasha: You said two plus zero was twenty.

Steve: Because it is.

Natasha: *walks into the kitchen* Huh - wait, why do I smell something burning?!

Steve: Oh, I didn't know how to lower the fire after I turned it on...

Natasha: *furrows her eyebrows* What do you mean...

Steve: I don't know how to lower it! I turned it on and it was on the highest heat so I thought I could just make do by cooking the food like this.

Natasha: *blinks at him*

Steve: *gestures to the stove* Can you help me lower the heat in the stove?

Natasha: *sighs* Turn the stove knob. Duh.

Steve: What's a stove knob and where's that?

Natasha: *gives him a look* I know you're a terrible cook but holy shit... Is this like a dare or something?

Steve: *laughs* Yeah, anniebellchase dared me to act dumb for a day.

Natasha: *shakes her head and walks away*

Steve: *yells* You still haven't told me what the knob is and where it is!

Natasha: Ask... or rather, annoy Tony or someone else, Steve.

Steve: Oh, good idea!
