“I frankly am surprised you don’t. Now excuse me while I am going to snuggle down with Sam, Bucky, Peter and T’Challa.”

“ Sleep is for people that function. Last time I checked, I don’t exactly fall in that category. But, whatever. Fine. Have fun with that. ”

“ Out. Duh. ”

     it’s a short response, and likely the best steve is going to get before they get where they’re going. for now, he just leads the other man to the garage, eyes sweeping across his collection. the decision has him pausing for a moment, before he decides on a lincoln. low-key, smooth ride.. partial driving assistance. keeping a bit of the stress off himself.

     tony pops into the driver’s side, pulling the keys from the sunglasses compartment. no need for more security in the compound; FRIDAY had that down. he buckles himself in before even starting the car, just barely waiting for steve to do the same before rolling out. he’s far more careful driving than he is in his suit, that’s for sure.

     for once, going out didn’t mean dressing up ( well, not to tony’s normal standard, anyway; his white button up and his scarf were hardly anything special ) -- which meant he was back in the living room a great deal faster than normal. his hair fell more naturally, slicked back just with water by the looks of it. no point in putting gel in that was just going to need washed back out this late.

“ You coming? You’re not getting any younger sitting around like that. ”

“I just want to sleep for a few years.”

“ You’ve already got the world record for longest nap and you want more sleep? ”

“ Oh I absolutely mean now. Every second’s precious, or.. whatever it is old people say. ”

     the thing on his desk springs back together with the press of a button, and he reaches for a nearby towel to wipe the grime off his hands. he pauses, before he offers a small, sheepish smile. it’s likely he’s been up a while, with the little vulnerabilities he’s willing to show, with the way his shoulders loosen.

“ ..I should shower off first, though. Probably don’t smell the greatest. ”

     that was the reaction tony was looking for. something to give him a proper sense of closure -- to soothe the paranoia that always itched under his skin. there was always the worry that steve in particular would.. well. the scar across his chest more than voiced that fear. ( more things that would never be spoken aloud. )

“ Actually, yes. We’re going out to make up for the dinner you missed. ”

“ I’m not so young myself, but you’re gettin’ old, Cap. ”

     as though he himself doesn’t have huge gaps gone from his memory -- that’s not something he’d mention in passing, though. easier to tease and let it go than dwell on it too long.

“ ..You seriously forgot, though? Like for real? Here I thought you were just making a statement. ”

[deferrise]

[deferrise]

“ ..Well, shit, no need to get so deep. ”

     there’s a brief pause, a sort of a-ha moment where tony realizes where he’s gone wrong, and he shakes his head.

“ You don’t know why I’m mad at you, do you? ”

[deferrise]

missed.

[deferrise]

“ Well I am angry. ”

“ I’m angry because I don’t understand you. ”

     with a faint scowl, he swivels back to his work, though it doesn’t seem like he’s going to get his rhythm back any time soon. it’s just easier to speak without facing someone -- easier still when he pretends to be busy. vaguely, tony acknowledges that he’s being petty, pouting like some kid denied a playdate.

“ You know, every time I think we’ve got things figured out, something else crops up. You ever get tired of it, Cap? ”

[deferrise]

[deferrise]

“ Ah-uh. Don’t talk to her, I didn’t say you could talk to her. ”

     with a quirk of one brow, he turns toward steve, leaving the contraption he was tinkering with open on his workdesk. it seems like he’s been in the lab a while; there’s stains of god knows what on his plain tank top.

“ Seriously? You dropped off the radar and didn’t even bother to, I don’t know, leave a message? ”

     not that he expects anything, but he seems hurt.

“ I wouldn’t say upset -- FRIDAY, do I look upset? ”

     the man hardly spared his teammate a glance, though his eyes flicker pointedly to one of the displays in front of him.

“ Of course not, Mister Stark. ”

“ See? Listen to the magic robot lady, I’m sure she knows a thing or two. ”

[ I think I’m finally ready to start seeking threads on here -- hit me up if you’re interested! I do better with the beginning of the plot outlined so I can get my bearings, but I’m adaptable. <: ]
