Lab Beneath Stark Industries, Sunday Afternoon
The War Machine armor had taken a significant enough hit in a fight that Rhodey wasn't able to patch it up on his own. Which was annoying on a few levels for Tony. One, that Rhodey could have gotten hurt. Another that Tony should have been there to help him.
Tony made a face, rereading the assessment of the damage for a third time before starting to get some tools together.
"JARVIS, has the lab in East Village been touched?"
"No, sir. Shall I inform Lieutenant colonel Rhodes of your plan?"
Tony grinned up at the ceiling. "You know me so well, sweetheart. Tell him I'll be there within the hour. Help him shake any tails if you'd be so kind."
[Expecting one, but open before!]

He found a chair to slump down in. It just –- it just seemed like a good time to be sitting down.
He wasn't shaking, or anything. He just had that feeling, that post-adrenaline feeling that made it seem like he needed to take a breath and be still for a second.

He looked at the gouges on Barnes' arm and hid jaw went tight as he busied himself looking for antiseptic.

"Sorry," he drawled. "I'll have to try and treat you more like a lady some other time."
no subject
"I'll ask you to take me to a nice dinner," Tony said, fully okay with this mode of distraction. "I'm not a cheap date, Barnes."
no subject
Which meant he only hissed and grimaced a little.
"Think I've changed my mind," he said, also only gritting his teeth a little. "Think you might be to expensive a date for me."

He gave a quiet snort, and shook his head while looking down. "Well, at least she didn't go for my face."

If only he knew about the things that would happen to it in the future.
"Guess it could've been worse," he said, looking back up. "You deal with that sorta thing often?"

"I have people who actually use the term arch-nemesis in my life," Tony replied dryly. "I almost miss my life before Iron Man."
Almost. But not really.

Yes. Had to question that. No judgment, though.

Well, Bucky wasn't about to challenge him on that point – he knew he couldn't know one way or the other, for one thing. So he left it at that, a noise of acknowledgement.
And prodded gingerly at the dressing on his arm, before looking up again.
"Can I put the shirt back on now, nurse?"
no subject
Or they could be normal people and go to the clinic.
no subject
He still had a little while of acting like a normal person left ahead of him.

WHY DID HE ONLY KNOW TALL PEOPLE WITH SHOULDERS?

Look, the blood wasn't his idea of a good time.

It was a Queen shirt that looked well worn.
