“You dare doubt me,” Tony questioned, almost jovially, knowing that they are still in ear shot. The blond’s range is incredible, and also highly annoying. The armor’s already collapsed itself in the tower and he’ll come back and get it after they’re done with lunch, somewhere far away from the strange looks he knows the younger Steve is giving them as they leave.
They’re a few blocks away, and fully drowned out by cabs and yelling motorists and pedestrians, before he speaks again, standing against the corner of an old stone building where the traffic lights can’t see them.
“Why did you mention, specifically, about being platonic? This has nothing to do with embarrassment, but we agreed that we’re going to try to keep from influencing anyone. My other guy has Pepper. Your other guy is going to have…I’m guessing Barnes. If that works out.” He doesn’t know that he has a tell for these sorts of things.
Or that Steve obviously knows himself.
“Laying low is hard. For me usually. You did a good job of it for two years.”
