After oiling DUM-E’s joints every once in a while? A quick kiss to his metal arm before getting up and telling the robot to get back to work.

After DUM-E gets scolded and pouts for a while too long? “Hey, come on, buddy. You know I love you.” Before giving him a pat on the back (arm?) accompanied by a light kiss that immediately puts DUM-E back in a good mood.

DUM-E loves it. He’ll linger with his claw in Tony’s face until Tony reluctantly gives him a kiss, after which he’ll twirl his claw in the air and trill happily as he rolls away.

One day Peter is in the lab and DUM-E is being persistent about getting a kiss from Tony, who is slightly hesitant to do so while Peter is there. But DUM-E had just brought Tony a tool he’d asked for and now refuses to stop waving his claw right in Tony’s face, so—

“DUM-E, you did good. Okay? Thanks. Now— can you give me some space? I’m busy here.” Tony sighs, to which DUM-E politely refuses. “Jesus, fine.” The genius mutters before planting a quick kiss to DUM-E’s claw. “There. You happy now?” He asks, watching as DUM-E trills happily and waves his claw in the air.

Then he spots Peter out of the corner of his eye, the kid’s mouth twisted into a poorly concealed smirk.

“Shut up.” Tony grumbles, turning back to his work.

Just because your child is smiling at their phone doesn't mean they have a boyfriend/girlfriend. Maybe they're just looking at pictures of irondad
