Dad and Princess Time.
Once and awhile Anya needed some Dad and Princess time. When she was growing up there was a lot of time with Dad, but as she got older the time with him diminished and now it was almost nonexistent. Dad had a company to run along with a wife and a newborn son to deal with. She had school, a team and a boyfriend and they both had more family members to deal with. Before it was just the two of them for the majority of the time and it was them against the world. Now the team had gotten bigger and it meant less time with just the two of them.

Friday afternoon saw her stopping by the company to ambush him in his office. He had left for work by the time she got home from the Avengers mansion and Steve. Mom had said that he went in to sign paperwork Pepper had been nagging him about. Though Anya suspected it has something to do with Nick being fussy.

She knocked on the door and stuck her head in.

Tony listens to Steve's words, but even more, the conviction behind those words. Steve, like Stephanie, is practically the spitting image of his father, or in Stephanie's case, her other father. Tony can see the confidence in this young man, the old soul behind those haunted eyes and knows that Steve is telling him the truth about who he is, as well as his intentions with Anya.

It is this moment, and only now at this moment, that forces Tony to realize that it's time to let his baby girl go.

Tony stands up now, looking Steve in the eyes with a very business-like stare. A minute goes by, then another. In those minutes, Tony remembers who his daughter was before Steve Baron and who she is now, but also who Steve Barton was before he met Anya. His daughter found someone who made her happy, and want to be a better person. Someone who loved her in spite of (or because of) her Stark heritage.

Steve isn't backing down from him, which was what Tony wanted to see all along. If he didn't back down from Tony, Steve would never back down from Anya, especially if her Stark-genes started to override her good sense.

Tony steps back and extends his hand again to Steve Barton.

"I'll see you tomorrow afternoon, Steve. Enjoy the rest of your night." Tony says. Then he releases the grip and heads for the door, going to his lab to get started. Steve won't see it, but Tony Stark smiles as he leaves the room. He's found a man he can entrust his daughter to.

Welcome to the family, Steve.

Of all the things Steve had expected in a reaction, that wasn't one of them. But he manages the presence of mind to hold the look and return the handshake.

"Thank-you, Sir."

He lets out a breath he wasn't even aware he was holding, and heads out to meet with Anya.
