Warnings: Sexism, Fluff

You and Chris both had an equal hatred for press tours. He hated them because of his anxiety. You hated them because of the blatantly sexist questions only you got asked. Even female interviewers asked the same questions.

It had been a long day of press and you were storming around the hotel room you shared with Chris. You were in a sour mood and everything else seemed to just piss you off.

Like when your moisturiser squirted out of the bottle unexpectedly leaving you with far more than you needed.

Or when you wanted a bit of ketchup for your fries and that had squirted out too much and was watery despite you shaking the bottle.

Your cheeseburger didn't even have cheese. Seriously who forgets the cheese in the CHEESEBURGER!

You grumbled as you walked out of the ensuite. As soon as you stepped into the room Chris pounced wrapping his arms around you tightly.

"You're so tense" he mumbles pressing kisses to your shoulders.

"Of course I'm tense Chris, I'm pissed off" you state trying to get out of his arms and ultimately failing when he hugs you tighter.

"I guessed as much, wanna talk about it?" He asks making you sigh and temporarily give up the fight.

"Maybe I dunno, there's nothing you could do about it" you tell him turning around in his arms to face him.

"Well there must be something I can do? Try me" he presses.

"Well can you completely turn this industry on its head and stop patriarchy driven questions I always get asks?" You ask him putting your hand on your hips.

Chris pauses and bites his lip in contemplation for a moment.

"I mean I could try but it might take me a while" Chris says with a small smirk.

You couldn't help but chuckle slightly dropping your hands in defeat and resting your head against his chest.

"But in the mean time why don't we swap?" Chris suggests making you look up at him con-fused.

"What do you mean?" You ask him tilting your head in question.

Chris smiles down at you clearly loving the confused expression on your face.

"We swap questions I take all the ones that are aimed at you that they wouldn't ask a man and vice versa" Chris explains.

"Oooh that would be interesting, would make the interviews ten times more fun" you chuckle absolutely loving the idea.

You and Chris spend the rest of the evening swapping questions between each other so you were completely ready to screw with the press.

For once you were actually excited to sit down for a press junket. When the first interviewer walked in and greeted you, you chuckled to yourself. You knew him from previous press tours, he was notorious for sexist questions.

How he still had a job you had no clue.

The interview starts off pretty normal, the both of you being asked general questions about the movie.

"It seems super physical, what was your training regime to get yourself ready?" The inter-viewer asks looking directly at Chris.

"Oh well it was a complete mix of stuff really" you say catching the interviewer off guard.

"Bit of Yoga and gymnastics for flexibility and general strengthening, i mean look at brie Larson her workouts explain it perfectly" you continue asking as if he had asked you instead.

The interviewer looks at the two of you slightly shocked, shifting in his seat uncomfortably. He waits for Chris to say something but when he doesn't he quickly move on.

There were a couple more 'normal' questions before he turned to you.

"You've got a brand new suit in this movie that looks incredible" he starts. you could instantly see where this was going and for once you actually looked forward to it.

"Yeah it is a nice suit" you answer trying to hide your smirk.

"Quite tight isn't it? Are you able to wear anything underneath it? Like what underwear can you wear?" He continues.

You choke back a snort. He hadn't held back at all. No attempt to even slyly ask the question.

"Um well depends on what the scene calls for really" Chris answer the both of you having to hold back a smirk.

"So for me whenever its a scene where i'm wearing the cap suit and its action packed, lots of running then you can get away with tight boxers because chaffing" Chris continues and you had to hold your fingers in front of your mouth to try and keep the laughter back.

"But if I'm just stood there in the suit and its a non action scene then I do have to go full commando" Chris finishes and you couldn't help but laugh slightly.

Chris looks over at you with a mischievous and victorious smile when you see the interview-er grow incredibly uncomfortable.

He stutters over his words looking at the two of you completely stunned and lost for words. Before he had the chance to ask any more questions his time was up and he was escorted out.

For the rest of the interviews that day you and Chris carried on doing the same thing for every interviewer.

You even carried it on during the big press conference. Whenever a female member of the cast got asked a sexist questions he would jump in and answer. Much to the enjoyment of the rest of the cast, the rest of the men also jumping in with their own answers.

The press were completely lost and you were enjoying everything second of it. Scarlett who was sat next to you at the table leaned over to whisper in your ear.

"Have you and Chris been doing this all day?" She whispers.

You nod your head holding back a smile.

"Yeah whenever I got a sexist questions he would answer them and I answered all the ones he would typically get, its been brilliant" you chuckle keeping your voice low so the mics wouldn't pick it up.

"You are a mastermind" Scarlett chuckles holding her hand up for a high five which you gladly gave.

You looked over at Chris and see him smiling warmly over at you. Clearly glad that this plan of his worked and you were actually enjoying the junkets. You'd have to give him a massive thank you kiss later, the only reason you didn't give him one now was because of all the cameras.

You settle for taking his hand under the table and squeezing it as a sign of thanks.

"Yeah i mean I absolutely love to have a romantic subplot to my character, you know sometimes i feel like my character is given too much depth ya know. Like make me a love interest please!" Mackie says making everyone on the table burst out in hysterics.

You loved this cast. Not as much as you loved Chris though.
