'Hey, this is Harry. I don't know why you're calling but I'll try to call you back.'

action.

[ironmanic]

[And Tony is about ten minutes late, strutting as if he's totally on time, sunglasses and poshly suited for a casual lunch with his twin.]

Good, you're here. Let's go.

[He switched direction to his favorite donut shop]

action.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[Pft, ten minutes. Harry's waited on people way longer than that anyway. He hops up - he'd been sitting on the edge of the fountain watching it - follows Tony.]

You said... donuts and greek? In that order?

action.

[ironmanic]

Donuts first. Then a gyro.

[As adults, they can have sweets before their meals!]

I hear they came out with a new flavor, and I'm interested in trying them. Raspberry-something-or-other.

action.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[He's skipping the idea of a raspberry hero.]

I'm good with that order. Donuts are a great appetizer. Should be little plates of those munchkin-nut things when you go to sit down at a restaurant.

action.

[ironmanic]

That's--genius.

[Tony turns to his companion with a grin.]

I'll leave the suggestion for my favorite restaurant. Thank you, Barry.

action.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[As already stated elsewhere, he promptly attempts to inhale the cigarette he'd started while waiting on Tony to arrive.]

It's what? What did you say?

action.

[ironmanic]

It's-- Greek? What, you really need me to repeat myself?

[Scrunches his brow. Where is JARVIS to conveniently repeat things for him?]

action. (you could not have possibly lost him faster.)

[captainfuckingmagic]

[He didn't hear any Greek. What the hell. You totally just lost him.]

Greek?

action. (tony does not like to repeat himself...)

[ironmanic]

[Shrugs. And into the bakery for donuts! He greets the cashier with a familiar wave- she giggles cause he's fucking charming.]

A dozen of the-- raspberry whatever. And another for my friend here.

action. (it's okay he's the coolest person harry's ever been friends with so he doesn't care)

[captainfuckingmagic]

[....right. Okay. He much more awkwardly but very friendly and genuinely greets the woman who is giggling by the time she even sees him and follows Tony, who is rapidly his new favourite person.] Harry. Nice to meet you.

action. (BUT TONY'S THE WORST FRIEND IN THE WORLD HARRY. RUN.)

[ironmanic]

[She looks back and forth between them, eyes wide.]

Yes, I know. Didn't I tell you I had a twin brother? So you know, if that's your thing--

[He gives her a wink as she blushes and gets his giant batch of donuts together.]

action. (NOT SO FAR.)

[captainfuckingmagic]

[Her thing... Her and the both of them? He's not... That's never been an option before.]

Did you just... and she's... [This is to Tony, who he's standing next to by now.] Is that normal?

action.

[ironmanic]

For me? No, actually, I don't usually run into other guys who vaguely resemble me.

[She gives him his two boxes, and he drops some coin on the counter - more than enough to pay what he owes.]

action.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[He grins at the girl a little, following Tony out, since he thinks Tony's going out. That's what you do after you pay.]

Well, no shit, I mean the thing with the girl where you barely even did anything and she wouldn't stop doing that thing with her eyes.

action.

[ironmanic]

[Tony grins a little Stark grin at that clarification as they head out into the Square.]

It's the charming smile- nine times out of ten it'll get you the thing in a woman's eyes.

action.

[captainfuckingmagic]

We have the same smile and I'm pretty sure mine's only ever done that to Autumn Meadowes in the strawberry field in fourth grade. She gave me some cookies.

action.

[ironmanic]

Show me.

[He stops abruptly on their way to -- somewhere. To eat their donuts.]

action.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[Tony you're really disorienting sometimes. Harry looks at him for a moment and then gives him a not-bad-for-being-on-the-spot-but-not-charming-per-se grin. They don't really have the same smile. But that was obvious.]

action.

[ironmanic]

[Stare.]

You tried to get laid with that?

[Not that it wasn't attractive- it just wasn't a Stark smile. The one that gets the Hustler calendar models on his doorstep.]

Tony is absolutely going to kill what little self-confidence Harry actually has

[captainfuckingmagic]

Well I'm not trying to get you in bed, am I? And yes. Do you see where my confusion is coming in now?

Don't worry, Harry. Tony will teach you gently.

[ironmanic]

It's all in the delivery. Clearly you have what it takes, you just have to know what to do with it.

[A Tony Stark smile for you, bud.]

thank...you?

[captainfuckingmagic]

Uh huh. [He's flattered by the smile but remains unconvinced.] Can I have a doughnut?

[ironmanic]

[He opens the top box and offers it to Harry and grabs one himself, immediately stuffing it in his mouth because MMM donuuuts.]

[captainfuckingmagic]

[MMM doughnuts indeed, as Harry does basically exactly the same thing, and then immediately proceeds to talk around it.] So what do you do? Normally.

[ironmanic]

I run a multi-billion dollar, multinational corporation.

[Pause]

I did. And I still might, unfortunately.

[Pepper did quit being CEO. Hopefully she didn't, because he doesn't want to run the company again...]

Here I run a smaller-scale corporation.

[NOM next donut.]
