[Tommy is glad about that. And he was happy to, a few days later, deliver the card to where he knew Shiro was staying.

Because yeah, he achieved, dude.]

if you want to continue in action, that's fine. Or we can fade out

[lionunchained]

[And Shiro would be there. He was excited to see all of the signatures that Tommy had gotten on it... and was curious if he had noticed the one surprise on in there]

oooh action

[doubled_speed]

[Tommy grins as he looks at Shiro and the card together.]

Don't know why I bothered with the card when you clearly already know it. Or am I supposed to believe Keith or Lance forged that?

Re: oooh action

[lionunchained]

[He chuckled at that]

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. I still appreciate it.

[doubled_speed]

[Tommy chuckles with him, shaking his head.]

You better. So many people thought this was my attempt to seduce you or some shit.

[lionunchained]

[He laughed at that last part] Well, I would imagine saying that you were trying to prove that others thought I was hot would do that.

[doubled_speed]

See, if I'm trying to prove others think you're hot, doesn't that just make me a wing-man?

[Ha! Logic! Take that.]

No one's going to be seduced by someone getting other people to say they're hot.

[lionunchained]

Hmm... maybe. I guess it might depend if there was someone you were trying to get to realize I was hot. You could just be trying throw people off the trail.

[Not that he really thinks that]

But you never know what people will think about your reasons. There's always the chance people will put their own opinions on it.

[doubled_speed]

Doesn't being a wing man mean that I should be trying to get some guy to realize you're not if that's what you want them to realize? And I'm not throwing people off the trail! I specifically noted that you're not. There's not trail to throw from!

[It's okay, he's certain he's only protesting the appropriate amount.]

Okay then. So, uh, your card. The proof. That people think it. Okay.

[lionunchained]

[Shiro just smiled, noting how much that he was protesting, but not saying anymore about it. Unless he said otherwise, Shiro would entirely believe that Tommy was doing it for perfectly innocent reasons. Pushing would only lead to him denying it even more - true or not]

Thanks. You are a man of your word.

[doubled_speed]

You know I am.

[He grins and raises a hand to get himself a high five. Come on, don't leave him hanging.]

Oh, apparently Lance was a HUGE fan of yours when he was younger. I don't thank him and Keith for all the stuff I found out.

[lionunchained]

[He chuckled at that]

That is not news to me. I knew that he was a fan of mine. What kind of things did you find out?

[doubled_speed]

According to Keith, Lance had a little shrine to you. Though I could get why someone would. And we come right back around to you're hot I guess. But you were also famous, right? They said that.

[lionunchained]

I was the best pilot at the Garrison when prior to everything that happened. At the time, I didn't have the same muscles that I do now so I think it was more of an admiration thing.

[doubled_speed]

Soooo I'm hearing there wasn't any amazing pin-up art?

[Teasing. He's teasing. Totally.]

[lionunchained]

[He laughed at that] Well, there might be, but if it looks like now, it is exaggerated. And not officially licensed.

[doubled_speed]

[That other part has him snorting in amusement.]

Tell me about it. Downside of being a super hero is secret identities. Which means you don't get ANY of the cut of the merch.

[lionunchained]

[He chuckled at that]

Since it was officially a military operation, there was no merchandise for individual people. Ships, sure, but not for people.

[doubled_speed]

Really? So you're telling me Lance had to make his little shrine out of publicity photos only? Ouch.

[lionunchained]

[He laughed at that]

Yeah, pretty much. Never did anything other than publicity photos unless he got some from somewhere else.

[doubled_speed]

I don't know. Sounds like he might well have gotten some elsewhere.

[He chuckles and shakes his head at that.]

[lionunchained]

[Shiro shook his head as well]

I should say that surprises me, but it doesn't.

[doubled_speed]

[He chuckles and shakes his head.]

That just struck you as a Lance thing?

[lionunchained]

Yeah. He definitely had kind of idol complex when we first started so I wouldn't be surprised if he had created a shrine before we started working together more often.

[doubled_speed]

I suppose I could, you know, understand it. I've seen it happen with super heroes back home.
