... my dad's name was Steve Rogers and my mom's name was Natasha Romanoff. [His parents might as well be the first ones he brings up, if they're going to be doing this.] They were... Earth's Mightiest Heroes, but... I don't know. [He looks... tired, even though the corner of his mouth is lifting in a wry little smile.] My dad was from the 1940s. He fought in the US Army and got frozen in ice before waking up in the modern world. My mom was an assassin before she joined the Avengers, but I don't think Tony wanted me to remember that. He just kept calling her a spy.
