Well, go big or go home has always been your MO, hasn't it? I have the utmost faith in you.
[ No pressure or nothing!! But really and truly, she'd be perfectly happy with cheap take out in a burnt kitchen (it's a good thing she likes [re]decorating) because it really does come down to the thought that counts with Tony. Not that she prefers coming home to destruction, but she's... kind of used to it by now. You win some, you lose some. ]
Thankfully only a part. [ Her tone would be so very wry if they were face-to-face. She'd known Tony isn't quite that clueless or careless when it comes to her state of mind, but it's still nice to hear it confirmed that he doesn't do these things just to get a rise out of her. ] Stop. There's definitely color on my face right now. [ Curses of a pale complexion... ]
( ooc: yesss. i'm dog-sitting this weekend so i may be a bit slow, but i'm definitely all in here, i love these two so much. maybe we could even thread out the actual date part, if you're interested. C: and thank you, that's lovely to hear! )
you know me so well. [ and for a moment he considers adding a little something extra. she really is his other half. he's sure she knows it too, with how much he relies on her to keep his shit together, but... ] ;) [ ok, not the best addition, but it feels right. he doesn't generally use the smilies, because he thinks they're tacky and obnoxious, but it seems like the emotes have a purpose after all. who knew! aw, lookit that, there's even a cute little strawberry. ]
[ no pressure. ahahahaaa. this is all the pressure and he's feeling it as he stares down the kitchen. dum-e's put out the last of the fires, so, uh, that's a start. but he's not so sure he's going to be able to cook and clean. he frowns, feeling a rising sense of panic, since he's not going to be able to deliver like he'd hoped. ] No, I can do this, I just need to... prioritize. [ he calls u to the kitchen to help dum-e clean so he can run out to the store. or, better yet, he'll have someone else run to the store for him. happy! he dials and informs him of his plans for the evening... going so far as to emphasize the importance of this meal. it's special. she's special. it has to be perfect. he's confident he's going to mess it up, but that's not about to prevent him from giving it his all. ] Done and... [ he clasps his hands together and points at the kitchen. ] done. [ he'll lend his robros a hand, since it looks like they're struggling. ] Friday, keep track of Ms. Potts. I want updates on her ETA and a countdown when she's about 20 minutes out.
[ oh, he's well aware. he's not sure he could get this far into this conversation were they face to face. text is making it significantly easier. ] but i'm confident i can get both of those things another way. [ a better way. this way. assuming things go according to-- crash! --plan. he sighs, dum-e reversing into u as the two 'gawk' at the remains of the counter. ] Really butterfingers... only I'm allowed to break things in this house.
snap a pic. you can't tease me like that. it's not fair. could be the motivation i need to turn things around here.
( ooc; not a problem. i'm a bit slow at the moment too, so it's all good. but, yes, i'll be here too. otp! and that sounds like a plan. it might be a good idea to move this, since captcha is coming as is their date. definitely the better part of my day, seeing a tag from you and pepper in my inbox. )
