Was he married?
#it just really gets to me how tony will go out of his way to hide his kindness #he offers the most extravagant things like it’s nbd #”i’ll fly you to portland pfft whatevs” #he jokes that phil’s first name is ”agent” and yet #he knows about the cellist #and wants phil to have a love life #and offers to fly him wherever so he can have it #and then pretends he’s not sure when steve asks him #because god forbid anyone finds out that tony stark gives a shit
((I think my soul just died.))
tony is a genius who probably has millions of thoughts firing through his head all day long. he’s so far ahead of everyone else that it’s hard for him to interact on a normal level. here he is completely and utterly focused on the tesseract, probably trying to find out how and when and why it work, but he hears a passing comment by phil about this cellist and probably without thinking stores it away in his brain - and to everyone else, remembering whether or not someone has a significant other is usually kind of important. it’s a social convention ‘normal’ people adhere to (which is shown with pepper there asking about it) but for tony to remember is a big fucking deal. asking about someone’s love life is not something he normally thinks about; he’s got hundreds of designs and schematics running through his head at any given moment. so many ideas that he just wants to make all the time. however, tony catches on this little tidbit, stores it in his massive brain, and not only recalls it later, but tries to help.

All this and:
It wasn’t the offer to fly Coulson to Portland that got me, it wasn’t even the way Tony looked shattered when Fury was talking to him and Steve, or even Tony’s face when his eyes snagged on the blood in the room, it was the scene with him and Loki when he says “And there was someone else you pissed off. His name was Phil.”
Because even though no-one else mentions him, Tony doesn’t forget.

Terrifying Fact Number Two, is that I’ve just watched Matt Smith carrying a flaming torch on screen. Oh, it’s for such a thrilling scene in Episode 12. Really and truly, magnificent and epic. A proper movie moment. But never mind that, it’s Matt carrying a FLAMING TORCH. Look, Matt’s lovely, he’s a magnificent, brand new, hilarious, heartbreaking, heroic Doctor — but the fact is, if that man walks into a room with a coffee then it’s only so long before you’re wearing it. No, really, clumsiest man on earth. He walks like he’s in a constant state of surprise at his own limbs. I remember when he turned up at a Worldwide meeting really early on, and the first thing he did was spill a cup of coffee over a rather lovely woman. Naturally she giggled, flushed and introduced her mother. (Ahh, life when you’re Matt ! I accidentally made eye contact with the same woman — she phoned the police and shot me in the face.) On the way out he apologised to a completely different woman for the coffee incident. “That was the wrong woman,” I said, as he went out the doors. “Nope,” he replied, “That was the second cup.”
Oh, and there was the top secret, very special, extra readthrough for Episode 10 (I’m talking that up, but what the hell) and Matt came striding in with a GUITAR ON HIS BACK. I have honestly never seen a whole roomful of people flatten themselves against a wall with such a high-pitched squeal of terror. Except Karen, of course, who trotted along behind him without a care in the world. Oh, the horror as the Doctor spun and chatted and coffeed a series of delighted women. How that guitar arced and scythed! Swish! Get down, Karen! Swish! Karen, save yourself! Swish! Not her face, Matt, NOT HER FACE!! Ah, the memories. You know, to this day I’m not sure if Matt knew he had a guitar on his back — he might just have collided with a musician.
