Five Things Abby Watson Loves About Sherlock 1. He knows lots about science. And he teaches you about it. If you ask. And he wants to. Science is very fun. He has a microscope, you can see very small science things inside it, if you ask.
2. He knows lots about everything. He knows if the moon has a belly button (it doesn't), and how many tomorrows are in a forever (Abby didn't understand the answer, but Sherlock thinks very clever for wondering about it), and why we have eyebrows (they're brollies for eyes. He can lift one at a time, which is silly). He never says 'I don't know' if you ask him something.
3. His voice is very nice. He has a big voice, and it's nice when he says things.
4. And she likes when he laughs, and she likes when Daddy laughs, and he and Daddy always laugh when they play together.
5. He's her friend, and he loves her, and teaches her things. If she asks. And he wants to.
Five Times Tony and Mim Disagreed on Something 1. Hiding how sick he was from the palladium in his arc reactor for a while. Mim thought he should tell someone about it, but he said there was nothing to do about it so there was no point in telling anyone about it, and Mim said that Pepper needed to know about it, that he couldn't just die and not tell her he was sick, and he said that Pepper would get all fussy about it and did she really want Lev crawling all over her asking her if she was okay all the time. Mim still maintains life would have been a whole lot easier if he'd just told someone sooner.
2. This is a continual disagreement, but there is a disparity in how much it is acceptable to drink. Mim usually thinks Tony should stop before he does.
3. Whether or not he needed to go his parents' funeral. Tony didn't want to deal with all the press and publicity surrounding it, but Mim thought he'd regret not going. Tony was afraid he was going to lose it in public and didn't want pictures of him crying all over the world's newspapers and he was afraid he wasn't going to cry, and the newspapers would report how stoic and heroic he was when he actually felt like a lost little kid. Mim said, since he was fucked either way, he might as well go. He went, and Obi did a good job steering the press away from him. He's glad he went. He just wished he could have done the whole thing more privately.
4. Tony ran away from boarding school once. Mim was totally on board until they got out there and realized a pampered, rich eight-year-old--even a genius one--couldn't really cut it on his own. Tony was determined to carry on, but Mim insisted they return to school. Tony was relenting by the time they realized they were hopelessly lost. He called Jarvis, who came and collected him. And took him home, not back to school, where he was ripped to shreds by Howard. Tony thought Howard was just upset that Tony pulled him out of work, but Mim knew it was because they'd scared him. Mim had never seen Dejeni that worried about anything.
5. Tony almost scrapped DUM-E after first making him, because he didn't work right. Mim insisted that they keep him, because he might be useful someday.
