I'm no longer under the trace. Still trying to decide what to do with this new found freedom.

Suggestions welcome.

I don't care about his past.

[Tony gives the blue velvet a bland look.]

Okay, yeah. Because this is you sounding like you don't care something. Actually we've played this record before, same genre, different lyrics though.

God, you never listen. The only care I give his past at all is how it is indicative of his future. I don't need your help or further validation of the facts!

I chased girls too, kinda only have Bruce in my thoughts now. So not all that indicative of much.

Well, John's different. I said I don't want to talk about it.

Well I do.

Tell me, is the only difference the fact I don't have a limp? that I am actually attractive? Or, that you don't want to get sexually inquisitive with me?

[Sherlock opens his drapes because that deserves a wtf look.]

This has absolutly nothing to do with you or any lack of physical attraction towards you. Can you really be this stupid?

Then how am I different from John?

You chase skirts because you think you have to, John does it because he loves it.

[Doesn't actually have a smart ass answer for that one.]

Well... How do you know he's not doing it for the same reasons I am...was...Do?

[He raises a hand and waves that thought trail away before starting again.]

How are you sure he isn't like me?

Because it's John. John accepts things for how they are, not how he wishes they were. Why the hell do you think he tollerates me so well? He makes no false assumptions about who anyone is, himself included. John is genuine in everything. And for gods' sakes can we please stop talking about John!

[Throws the curtains closed again.]

And until he was eleven he accepted he was just a normal muggle.

And I resent that. I tolerate you too.

[Sherlock scowls in the dark.]

John was born a wizard. Nothing was ever going to change that--Hogwarts or no. He was born to like girls too.

Tollerate me all you want, Stark, but either shut up of I will make you shut up.

[Tony tilts his head,more than aware that he's been threatened but naturally for him he takes it as a challenge.]

Was that a threat? Really? You're threatening me?

If you need a right hook to listen to reason, then yes. Do yourself the favor and shut up.

Uh.. Make me.

[He takes two steps back from the curtain, guarding against potential fabric punch.]

I've said I will, have I not?

Doesn't really look like you're doing it though, does it?

As long as you've dropped the topic of John, you've complied.

Who says I have? Just because I've gone about a minute without mentioning him doesn't mean you're still not thinking about him. I mean I would be concerned but he isn't upsetting you so much, as you're the one agonising only one set of variables.

[Yeah, that's it. Sherlock sweeps his drapes open and gets off his bed, marching towards Tony.]

[He smirks at him, and can't resist baiting him further.]

Because lets face it, everyone is negotiable till marriage. And even then, things happen.

[Sherlock just walks up close enough to swing at his face in a nice, arching blow to his chin.]

[Taking the hit, Tony makes an awkwardly surprised noise and stumbles back, falling over something and hitting the ground. Wincing, he rubs his jaw before looking back up at his baited attacker.]

Or, if you think it's so impossible, I might try to challenge that theory. I'm new to liking guys, so experimentation is a good way to be less new, isn't it?

[Sherlock eyes him. Tony wants him to strike again. And obviously it didn't work to make him see he was utterly serious about it.

He doesn't even both to respond to his goading. He straightens his shirt and goes back to his bed to gather some things before leaving.]

[Action]
