You had been thinking about this for a while.
While standing in the mirror with a baggy shirt on you pushed your hands over your boobs to try and flatten out your chest. With a big sigh you got up off your bed, you knew you would have to ask Tony for a binder eventually, you knew he would be supportive - well you hoped he would be - but you were still shaking. 

You stood outside his lab with your hand pressed against the door
What would you even say to him? 
How would he react? 
Will he be mad? Angry? Sad even? 

Fuck it

You pushed the door open and walked in, Tony looked up from where he was working

T:" Hey Bug, everything okay?" 
You cleared your throat
y/n:" There's- I need to talk to you, umm about something - important" 
You kept your head trained down onto the desk, looking at the pen you and picked up to fiddle with. 
Tony sat down his tools and pulled his chair out to sit on, showing he was listening to you
T:" What's up kiddo?" 
y/n:" Umm, promise you won't be mad?" 
T:" I won't be mad, I pinky swear" 
He held out his little finger to you 
y/n:" And promise that even after I tell you this you won't see me any different?" 
He linked his finger with yours 
T:" I promise bug. Now what's the issue" 

You closed your eyes and took a deep breath in through your nose 
y/n:" I can't do it" 
T:" What can't you do kiddo?"
y/n:" I can't tell you" 
He could see you were getting worked up and frustrated so he walked around the end of the bench to you
T:" Is there anything I can do to help you out here?" 
You just shook your head and looked down at the ground as your eyes became blurry and tears threated to fall.

T:" How about we sit down and we order a cheese burger and you can tell me wherever you feel like it?" 
y/n:" I can't tell if your being nice or your hungry" 
T:" I'm being nice!" 
He reached forward typing something, then continuing his talk
T:" How dare you assume I would put my hunger over my kiddo" 
You both laughed which brightened your mood a little but also made you more scared of loosing him. 

Once your cheese burgers had arrived you both sat down, eating in almost silence 
T:" Just so you know bug, I will always love and support you - no matter what, I mean unless you tell me you don't like cheese burgers - then we might have a small problem... But seriously you'll always be my little kiddo" 
y/n:" Even if I didn't like how I look now?" 
Tony gave an obviously confused look but kept his reply coming quick
T:" Even then" 

It went silent for a bit more as you ate 
y/n:" Dad..." 
He looked up at you and nodded - not wanting to interrupt you
y/n:" I - would you please buy me a binder" 
T:" Like a chest binder?" 
You nod your head making a little "Mhm" sound 
T:" Ofcourse kid, which colour would you like? Black, white or skin tone" 

You just looked at him without replying, not really sure what to say or do. 
All of the scenarios in your head had prepared you for the worst but none had prepared you for what to do if he accepted you. 
Slowly happy tears started to fill your eyes and a smile rose on your face. 
You stood up, walking around the edge of the work bench to Tony and hugging him tight. 
y/n:" Thank you"
He patted you on the head and gave you a gentle reassuring squeeze. 

T:" I'll order you as many binders are you want, any clothes or whatever. Let me know Bug and I'll get you them, Okay?" 
You nodded your head and picked up your drink to leave the room
T:" Wait kid" 
You turned around to face him 
T:" If you want binders, ummm do you have different pronouns now?" 
You hesitated for a second before nodding 
y/n:" They're she/they" 
T:" Okay cool, I'll try and use them" 
You left the room feeling like a weight had been lifted from you and you were thanking any higher force that you had got such an amazing father figure. And while you were in your room relaxing Tony was busy modifying your suit. 

The next morning when you went down for breakfast Tony wasn't there. You sat down to eat with the rest of the Avengers thinking he was just still asleep. 
Just as you were all finishing up Tony burst through the door 
T:" Y/n!" 
y/n:" Yeah?" 
T:" Come down to my lab with me" 
y/n:" Umm okay" 
You walked down with him to his lab, he was like a kid in a sweet shop. 

When you got down to his lab there was something under a black cloth 
T:" Go pull it off" 
He watched as you pulled off the black cloth, you turned to him confused - it was just your suit. 
T:" Go put it on" 
You did what he said and left for the changing room. You put on your suit and tried to figure out what was new. 

Walking out, Tony saw your confused look 
T:" Press the button on your belt" 
As you pressed the button you felt your chest get tighter, looking down you saw how your boobs were flat. 
T:" I built a binder into your suit. Isn't cool" 
A huge smile made it's way to your face as you realised he'd been up all night modifying your suit. 

You ran towards him pulling him into a hug
y/n:" Thank you!" 
T:" Anything to make you happy kiddo" 

You pulled away from your hug and sat down to talk about it and how it works 
T:" Its optional in a way. You wouldn't know it was there if you didn't press the button. I did some research into them last night and it wouldn't be safe to wear them all the time so I made it so you have the option to not bind or bind, depending on how you're feeling" 

A/N: Tell me how I did. I feel like this strayed a little from the actual character Tony Stark but I like it. 

Hope everyone is okay and doing well, remember you are valid, loved and cared about more than you could ever think.
