SVENTY EIGHT??!!

Summary:

Cultober Day Ten:
Fluff: Finding bad/Weird Traits Endearing
Whump: Break up

Tony and Rhodey text about Tony's new boyfriend, then a bit about his old one.
AKA Tony doesn't see what's so bad with dating a vampire.

Notes:

And, with five minutes to spare, guess who wrote a submission for the day? I hope you enjoy!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Rhodey: Okay but what do you like about him?

Tony: Besides the obvious, you mean?

Tony: What's not to like about him?

Tony: His laugh...

Tony: His accent...

Rhodey: Hist thirst for human blood?

Tony: His intelligence...

Tony: Hey! Not fair, Honey Bear

Tony: It's not like he really has a thirst for human blood. He just needs it to live. That's respectable.

Tony: Besides, it's kind of endearing.

Rhodey: ...

Rhodey: You did not just say that. You did not actually just say that. I refuse to believe that you just told me that your BOYFRIEND drinking human blood is ENDEARING.

Tony: I'm pretty sure it's animal blood.

Tony: Like, seventy-eight percent sure

Rhodey: SVENTY EIGHT??!!

Tony: *Seventy. Was that supposed to be a vampire joke?

Rhodey: NO. Tony, no.

Rhodey: Now please tell me how your messed up brain seems to think that drinking blood is endearing of all things?

Rhodey: God sometimes I think that I'm the only rational one in this friendship.

Tony: You, my dear friend, are anything but rational.

Tony: And it's endearing because he hasn't tried to eat my blood, which has to count for something.

Tony: It's kind of sweet, actually.

Tony: And I've offered. It's not like it's his fault that he has to drink blood to live.

         He's actually a very intelligent being.

Rhodey: TMI, Tones. TMI. Please never tell me anything about your boyfriend again.

Tony: He's great with his mouth.

Rhodey: Tony I swear to god.

Rhodey: I'm going to need to bleach my eyes.

Rhodey: Seriously, though. Is he really not a rebound from Ty?

Tony: No.

Tony: He's not.

Tony: and remember when I told you not to mention me and Ty? We're done.

Rhodey: So you serial date blondes now?

Tony: I did not say that.

Tony: And I broke up with him, so this definitely isn't a rebound.

Rhodey: HmmmMmmm

Tony: What's that supposed to mean?

Tony: If you're trying to make the sound that Jasper makes while drinking blood it's not working.

Rhodey: Okay I did NOT need THAT VISUAL

Rhodey: And you're changing the subject. Ty manipulated you and then told you that you broke up with him.

Rhodey: I was there. I'm pretty sure that he was the one that broke up with you.

Tony: Whatever.

Tony: Maybe I can get my hot vampire boyfriend to drink my ex's blood.

Rhodey: Something is seriously wrong with you

Notes:

Tomorrow: "If you wanted to kiss me, you could have just said so" + Has never felt safe
Tomorrow was the one actually planned to be a texting au and we've got James One and James Two (Rhodey and Bucky), so we'll see if I actually write that.
