Fuck you Rhod. I need to learn not to click on your lj-cuts anymore if I don't have a fucking tissue or a sheet or something absorbent handy.
Your repetition tic works so well for a story like this, tying everything back to the one time Tony actually got it, thanks to Yinsen, and man. Man.
"Talk to me Rhodey. Tell me what a fucking cool suit I made for you. I want to know what it's like."
I'm pretty sure this is the biggest heartbreak out of the whole thing, out of Rhodey being weak enough to keep his promise, out of Rhodey hanging up on him, out Tony finally growing a pair big enough to know when to step out of the picture, he never got to know what it's like to fly.
