steve & tony 5 and 41 for the ship meme
5 - Nicknames? Pet names? Any in-jokes?
Tony has a ton of random nicknames for Steve. But Steve's favorite is when Tony calls him Dyter. Once Tony found out about Steve's love for Errol Flynn movies when he was growing up, they marathoned all the films they could of him. After Steve found out that his debut film, Murder at Monte Carlo, had been lost he made a habit out of quoting it to Tony as best he could remember. Since then Tony has a habit of calling Steve "Dyter" whenever his questioning annoys him.
41 - Are they party-goers? What are they like when they’re drunk? Does it happen often?
They go to parties often for Stark Industries and charities and publicity. Steve doesn't like to, but he goes because he has to and for Tony. At first Steve thought Tony loved the parties, and the drinking, but the more he got to know Tony the more he saw behind the mask. Tony hated the parties. And he drank to tolerate them. Steve hated to see Tony drink so he spent more and more of his time keeping Tony entertained and steering him away from the people he hated most. Before either one realized it, they both came to love going to the parties but not for the people or the drinking but because Tony loved seeing what Steve was going to do to keep Tony by his side and Steve loved making Tony laugh and seeing him smile.
