So, uh- [ He clears his throat, rubs the back of his neck and goes ] You're pretty good at birthdays it turns out. [ A beat, he leans back to address the cloak. ] You too. [ Before leaning forward on the barstool again to mumble out ] Wanna finish what we started at the blacksmith's? [ Another beat, quickly appended with a ] Sometime. [ In an attempt to not appear as down bad as he is. ] Whenever you're- Free.
[ Because he's got a mostly-faded hickey that could use a reapplication. Tony's forked tongue darts out to lick his lips. ] No pressure. Not tryin' t'- Push. [ He can be pushy when he sees something, someone he wants, he knows that. He just- Actually really kind of likes Strange, and his stupid fucking cheekbones and his shitty attitude. And has no clue how to properly express that. ]
