Work Text:

Wiseacre

Tony listened as Kate and McGee traded stories about college. It reminded Tony of his time at Ohio State with his fraternity. They'd had a number of wiseacres in their fraternity, but Tony remembered one time in particular.

It was during pledge week. They'd told the pledges to strip for a communal shower. One of the pledges was a real wise guy. He piped up, “You can look, but not touch. You won't find better anywhere.”

Needless to say everyone had looked to see what he was bragging about. He hadn't done anything for Tony, but a few of the other pledges had been sporting boners. That was a story best kept to himself, Tony knew. He didn't want another lecture from Kate even if McGee would be dutifully impressed.

Notes:

Prompts are currently open. If you'd like to prompt me, please do so here. Note you have to be an ao3 member to do this.

If you are not an ao3 member, you can prompt me here. Please follow the same rules as are listed in the above link. However, because this is a handmade prompt form(that thinks it's a poll), it is considerably more limited than what ao3 provides, so please use the ao3 form if you're an ao3 member. Please note the name option is for a name that I can say this is for so that you know it's for you. Since this is for non ao3 members it won't be true gifts, but you will be mentioned in the notes.

This is a new thing I'm trying, so please leave feedback here if you think it could be improved.
