I really, honestly, love and appreciate these stories, and your writing. I've always been a fan of the... not "feel good" but. Well, the stories like this, where everyone actually gets their lives together and they become a good solid family. Family that has their weak points, sure, but they actively work on those weak points. The amount of research you take for each chapter of each story boggles my mind. As someone who has/is working through the notions of being asexual, or at least asexual-ish/Grey-A, some of the resources you collate have actually helped me work through my thoughts and feelings on the matter so that I am better able to work through them with my partner.
But, what actually made me post this comment in particular was a thought that struck me as I was reading your resources. I don't know if this is canon or not, but could Tony Stark be left-handed? I happen to be left-handed, and that scene clip in particular is something I would have done in the same situation. I do most things at least slight ambidextrously, because some tasks are just better suited to using your right hand (be it due to location of materials, type of tool used, or body positioning) than your left. I work in a custom frame shop, and actually complete pieces much faster due to this, since I can use tools both ways rather than moving the frames around. Looking back at various clips, he does tend to use his left hand for a lot of the fine detail work on the suits. His first gauntlet is for his left hand, I believe, which would make sense if that is his dominant hand? Just a thought.
