IC inbox for duplicity

Tony's Mailbox.

That sounds like a great plan.
Why wasn't I invited?

Seemed as though it wouldn't be difficult to manage once I actually found him. Plus I don't exactly keep people on speed dial for these matters.

Why not? That is exactly what we're here for!
If you're going to have fun you should definitely invite a friend to it.

I'll set a reminder for you if you want. I can do that.

I suppose. I don't play on teams often these days.

It's never too late to start.

Cute.

[ as in quaint cute; he's going for dismissive. maybe a little of the normal kind. he's not really going to waste his breath calling tony stark out on being charming, though. ]

We never did get around to that lunch.

So you're saying you want to go on a date with me?

[ Now you did it, Stephen. ]

[ stephen, looking at his phone, huffing in reluctant amusement. ]

I said what I said.

Besides, you'd have to pay anyway.

[ stephen is a submissive. it's a good excuse to make other people buy him food. ]

Okay, then, yes I would love to go on a date with you. Thank you, Stephen.

[He did not say no and gave Tony the opening.]

You say that like I wouldn't treat you anyway.

I didn't know you would, actually. I like a pleasant surprise.

You pick a place. I'm not as apprised on what constitutes a good lunch date in your neighborhood. And I'm free all week.
