Tony leaned on his desk; his chin propped unsteady on his left palm. His right hand was busy scanning the coding of the newest protocol for Peter's new suit.

"Sir, Stephen Strange is at the door, should I let him in?" Friday's voice pulled Tony from his screen.

"Yeah," Tony nodded, turning towards the glass door.

"You don't usually lock the door," Stephen commented as he stepped inside.

"It's a surprise for Peter. What's up Doc?" Tony asked with a goofy grin.

Stephen only rolled his eyes. "It was abnormally quiet down here. Wanted to make sure you hadn't impaled yourself or something."

Tony bit back a grin. Stephen had taken up the roll of looking after Tony. It had been two weeks since Stephen had conjured his favorite coffee and the team had been impressed that Tony didn't throw the sorcerer out, so they used it to their advantage. When one of them was worried about Tony they would send Stephen down.

"Who sent you this time? Bruce? Rogers?" Tony asked turning back to his desk.

"Uh, yeah, Rogers," Stephen nodded.

"Well you can tell him I'm fine. It's quiet cause I'm working on a new protocol for Peter's suit. It's mostly programing."

"When was the last time you ate anything?" Stephen asked peering over Tony's shoulder at the coding Tony was working on.

"Friday when did I eat last?" Tony asked, not looking away from the screen.

"It's been seven hours, Sir."

"There you have it," Tony tossed Stephen a smile.

Stephen frowned.

"It was only a granola bar, and you dropped half of it in the oil tub," Friday's voice spoke again.

"Tony," Stephen scolded gently.

This caught Tony's attention. Stephen never called him by his first name. It was always Stark.

"I'm making you dinner. Friday, let me know if he passes out before I'm done," Stephen huffed, turning back to the door.

"Yes Doctor."

"Hey, who's side are you on?" Tony frowned looking up as if at Friday.

Once Stephen was gone Tony let out a huff.

"Can't believe Rogers sent him down here." He grumbled.

"Sir, Mr. Rogers hasn't been at the compound all day," Friday responded.

"Wait, so Strange lied?" Tony frowned.

"Yes Sir."

Tony frowned towards the door.

"Maybe he meant Bruce," He waved a dismissive hand.

"Doctor Banner has also been gone all day. The only one who has been here is Mrs. Maximoff. She left just after her training session with Doctor Strange, three hours ago."

Tony tilted his head thoughtfully. Why would Stephen lie?

Before he could think any further of it, his computer beeped loudly.

"The coding error has been found," Friday said causing Tony to forget all about Stephen's visit.

When Stephen showed up at his door again, he wasn't carrying a plate of food like Tony had expected him to be.

"I thought you were making dinner. What happened? You didn't' burn the kitchen down, did you? I didn't hear the alarm go off." Tony said, spinning around in his chair to face the sorcerer.
