[Ah Cap. Tony grins.]

Two people. Other than that I don't make it a habit of letting others' intelligence be a sore spot. I like collaboration on occasion. Not everything is my area of expertise. [Until he decides it is anyway.]

[hottestofmesses]

[Either truth serum or perhaps Tony is just tired. Who knows. Either way, he seems expertly casual when he says probably the most terrible thing.]

Sure. The guy who brought me into this world and the guy who tried to take me out of it. [There are several of those so depending on timeline it could be anyone how fun! He puts a hand up.] No pop quiz later though, you don't have to take notes.

[By contrast, Tony's grin grows a bit. He's clearly not in a terrible mood over it. And he reaches up to give Steve a little knock on the shoulder.]

Lighten up, Cap. You'll live longer. [Such a cheeky response in that Tony way of his.]

Yeah, sure, you ever try not being such a stick in the mud? [He can tell Steve's having a certified bad time and he at least wants to lighten the mood.]

[hottestofmesses]

[It's like Tony gets a full body shiver.]

Eugh. No. Absolutely not. That's so un-you it just seems wrong. [His hands go into his pockets and he leans a little.] But you don't have to yell 'fuck' or break plates to de-stickify yourself. You could just. You know. [His brows lift with one of his patented Tony Stark grins.] Not be a stick in the mud.

[hottestofmesses]

[Ah, gotcha. His grin goes absolutely foxy and he leans in just a touch.]

Oh, are you... asking for my advice?

[hottestofmesses]

[Oh Tony will never stop. That's one of his most charming qualities, right? No?]

Well for starters, you could stop walking around like you have a rod shoved up your ass. [Quit it with the perfect posture, Cap. Though he does hold up a hand.] Am I allowed to use that word? Also- to avoid the usual letch commentary, you can try looking less serious all the time. [Smile more, is what Tony means.] You always look like you're just waiting around for a red alert.
