[3potionproblem]

No, you're planning to engage in needless physical contact just for the sake of being a nuisance.

[arrogantalloy]

Bruce and I have been friends since my first year. It's just what we do.

[3potionproblem]

I've known you nearly as long. Length of time is not a deciding factor.

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah and I do things to you that I don't to to anyone else either. Doesn't mean I'm trying to get romantic with you.

[3potionproblem]

I would expect not. Much better to curl up with flesh than with stone. Much more yielding.

But what would I know? I'm just Hogwarts most insufferable stalker.

[arrogantalloy]

If I poke you in the cheek right now, I think I'll find you're flesh too. Don't flatter yourself, you're not that cold and unfeeling.

Insufferable yes, stalker not so much, most stalkers don't ask for people to stalk. Besides, you're not very good at it if you were.

[3potionproblem]

Metaphorically speaking, Tony. I'm more flesh and bone than flesh and blood either way.

Though, how come when I say I'm not a stalker, you jump right on board the bandwagon and call me one but when I use the term, you find the need to correct me? Is this 'taking the piss'?

[arrogantalloy]

I remember saying there were better ways to get a girl friend. But yeah, mostly the first time was a joke.

[3potionproblem]

Believe me, the pursuit of companionship is never my concern.

[arrogantalloy]

How about the pursuit of company?

[3potionproblem]

Still rare. But not... well, not impossible.

[arrogantalloy]

Then what, me, Bruce, and Peter, are three of the 9 impossible things Alice suggests doing every day?

[3potionproblem]

[Sherlock smirks a little.]

You could say that, I suppose. Certainly a fairer sort than my kin.

[arrogantalloy]

That's what friends are for, to not be your family.

[3potionproblem]

Well, it's what roommates are for. Only reason we interact is because there is a limited number of youths our approximate age in Ravenclaw and we are more or less forced into interaction.

[arrogantalloy]

Not true, I don't interact with Herbert anymore than I have to. You I have no problems talking to. I mean really, if what you said was true, I could have just kept walking when you and your stunt double came this way.

[3potionproblem]

[…Oh….]

So we’re… friends.

Should I be doing something different in that case? To keep you?

[arrogantalloy]

[There's an eyebrow raise.]

After three years, what else are we meant to be?

Wait, what? No. I like you because you are what you are, also, I'm not a dog, so I'm not kept. Besides, it's probably more something I'll do that will break a friendship.

[3potionproblem]

That’s fine. Low Maintenance works well for me.

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah, it's easy to maintain friendships when both parties don't want anything from each other, I guess.

[3potionproblem]

Ideal, really.

Go run off and play with Banner. I have some things I need to take care of.

[arrogantalloy]

I don't 'play' with Banner. But sure, go exercise Sherlock 2.0. Let me know when you're free of him, he's kind of annoying.

[3potionproblem]

Only in as many ways as you are.

[Sherlock smirked a bit. Well, at least the shade didn't just take the piss out of him.]

Oh, believe me, that will be my main focus.

[arrogantalloy]

[Tony's eyebrow shoots up at the shade.]

Oh yeah, well you're just hilarious, aren't you.

[He turns back to Sherlock.]

Kinda getting tired of him.
