Ahaha! I love the reference to Timely Comics (Since Steve was indeed "working" at Timely Comics in 1942, given that Captain America debuted in 1941 ^_^).

I think I said this with the last ficlet, but it's really neat to see Avengers fics set in the 1960s, and I especially like the way you incorporate historical background in.

Despite the depression that Steve frequently suffered, he was the most upbeat person that Tony knew.

One tiny quibble: I'm not sure that "depression" is quite the right word. Maybe something about Steve trying to adjust to a new time/acting subdued/moping/having nightmares? Steve definitely had ptsd in the early Tales of Suspense/Avengers days, and he moped around some, especially after Tony left the team, but I swear it's been commented on by other characters that Steve rarely gets depressed (*grins* As opposed to Tony, who's had textbook -- and textual -- clinical depression symptoms since about 1963).
