Tyler had, it seemed, hit the stage of advanced old age when a really good Saturday night meant three beers and online poker with a table of suckers.

The upside: He was up a couple hundred bucks, so the night wasn't a total waste. And then he clicked over into his email.

Homecoming. Huh.

"Tony?" he called into the other room. "How are you feeling about Fandom?"

[OOC: For that guy, NFB.]

"What about it?" Tony asked, not even looking up from his own email. It might have been a scathing response to someone questioning his math.

He was a petty man sometimes.

Tony paused at that. "Are you asking me to be your date?"

And that was how you knew it was pretty much an old married couple. "I hope you don't expect me to put out then."

"That," Tony said with a careful pause. "Would depend on how spiked the punch is."

"Then you can count on my attendance, but you get to tell Pepper why I'm skipping a technological conference."

...yeeeeah. They lived with a special kind of repression to not notice they were pretty much married.

"Because that idiot Hammer is going to stalk me the entire weekend if I go."

"He'd only take it as a reason to keep digging. His latest attempts at the suit have been worse than possibly imagined."

Because he was an idiot.

Tony was mostly still glowering at his computer now.

"His last test pilot survived." There were things there between the lines.

"Unless he steals the actual designs, no," Tony replied with a grimace. "And I doubt the military would be willing to press him to stop."

"Yes." Tony went silent for a moment before pushing away from the computer to pace between his chair and Tyler's.

"I could ask Rhodey to look into things, couldn't I?"

"See if they're looking to hire him at least." Maybe. Tony stayed by Tyler and bit down on the inside of his cheek, thinking it over.

"Homecoming. Yes, that would be good."

"I could." Because it was always good to make Marvel 616 worried again! "And you can remind me how your former classmates are in gradeschool."

"I'm sure you're very respectable." Really. You could tell from the amused look.

"We have time for that to happen," Tony pointed out.
