Following that other one... [video]

If there are any kids- both big and small- who don't want to be alone right now, I'm making hot chocolate and blanket forts in the dining room.

Also, bring a blanket.

[He looked over at the man he didn't recognize. Was this who he'd been talking to earlier?]

Let's hope there were a few who missed it.

[He came closer and held out his hand.]

Tony Stark.

[He stares at the hand for a moment that's probably long enough to be a little uncomfortable before he winces at himself.]

Sorry, I don't— phobia, nothing personal.

[His unconscious avoidance of physical contact might be something Tony has picked up on, even in the short time Sam has been in the room. It's not as pronounced around the children, but it's still there.

As much as he likes not being recognized immediately by people, it does come with the disadvantage of having nobody know why Sam is the way he is.]

Sam Bridges. Good meetin' you in person, Tony.

[runs_on_batteries]

[The hesitation got his eyebrow to raise, but the explanation was accepted easily enough. Although he wondered if this was any touch at all- if so, this was a really awful place for this guy to be with how crowded the train was.]

Sam, good to meet you. How long have you been here?

[bridgetothefuture]

[By his somewhat uncomfortable stance, and the way he's keeping his hands at his side, it definitely appears to be any touch at all.]

A few weeks now, I think. I showed up in time for the latest mission.

[Don't they have drugs for that..]

Hmm.. well I've had several big projects the last few weeks so I haven't been able to meet all the new people like I usually do.

[It was almost an apology.]

Care for some coffee?

[bridgetothefuture]

[Haha... ha...]

It's not really a big deal, in the grand scheme of things. Least we're meetin' now, right?

[He's so antisocial, sorry.]

I'll take some coffee, yeah.
