Girl Talk
It had been an interesting Halloween and subsequent trip to Germany. She and Jimmy had been almost inseparable for the trip. Germany had been fun and productive. The BMW test had gone extremely well and the contract was being drawn up. Jimmy and she had then driven cars around Nurburgring at ridiculously high speeds. Her car had performed very well and she had sent the collected data to Tesla Motor corp. They would be interested in seeing how one of their cars performed with the zero point energy tech installed. With any luck there would be more contacts coming soon.

The business part of the trip had been straight forward and easy. It was the personal part that had her confused. She had a lot of fun with Jimmy and he had been just what she needed after the run-in with Temujin, but what was going on, or wasn't, between them is what had her off balance a bit. Was there something there or was it just her imagination running away with her?

They had known each other all their lives. The only person she had known longer than Jimmy was Toni. Stark and Rhodes had a long history, but so did Stark and Rogers. Anya had known James for her whole life, but know she was seeing him in a whole new light. It was something she was unfamiliar with.

The first and last time she had taken an interest in someone it had turned out very badly and the bastard was still causing her problems. She hadn't been interested in anyone since then despite what the tabloids said. If she was seen talking to a member of the opposite sex, sometimes the same sex, there were rumors in the tabloids the next day. It was never ending.

Anya need to talk things through with someone and there was only one person on the planet she would talk to. She arrived in New York and headed right to the Avengers Mansion. She climbed the stairs and stopped at a certain room. She knocked on the door.

Toni appeared at the door a moment later, and grinned. "Okay, what horribly stupid Stark thing did you do now?"

It was probably a joke.

"I slept with Jimmy," she said. "Can we talk?"

Okay, now that was a new one, even by Anya's standards.

Okay, yeah, if this was a joke, Anya would have cracked by now. Not to mention Toni could just about always tell when she was making stuff up.

"Yeah, c'mon in, girl. Dish."

Anya entered the room and shut the door behind her. "It was Halloween and he went with me to the charity masquerade ball. I gave Misha a break for a change and Jimmy volunteered."

Anya took a deep breath. The next part would probably set Toni off and there was bound to be some yelling. "Temujin showed his face." Anya paused there for the expected reaction.

Cue indeed. "Okay, one ...Why the hell am I just now finding this out?"

"Because he just showed his face," Anya explained. "It was a 'hey I'm still out here'. He didn't try anything and he disappeared before Jimmy got back. You would have know if something had happened. I didn't want to put everyone into a panic and I didn't want to be kept under lock and key."

Frowning. "Anya, girl. After all he's done to you? Showing his face is still cause for going to defcon one."

"No it's not. Especially not in the middle of a charity function."

Anya shook her head.

"He showed up and left. Jimmy and I went upstairs because I couldn't deal with being it and being in public. We curled up together on the bed and fell asleep. I had a nightmare and then we watched some movies until sunrise."

A pause.

"We kissed a few times."

More frowning and glaring. "His very existence is Def-con three at a minimum. Showing up where you are? Def-con one. No argument."

And there was more frowning. "Buck's a great guy. But I wouldn't go trusting anything that came out of what happened then."

"Okay fine," she said just to stop the argument. Unlike her father, she knew when to pick her battles and do a strategic retreat.

"Why not? We spent the night together and he came to Germany with me. We had a really good time and I think there may be something there. I'm not sure though."

Damn Stark-girl and her lack of a self-preservation instinct. It just made Toni worry about her all the more. The Price of Friendship.

"Because you got close because something traumatic happened. I'm not saying maybe there ain't something there, but just keep that in mind."

Anya shook her head. "We've been hanging out a bit before this. We've been going for burgers on Saturdays and whatnot." Anya shrugged. "I don't know. I guess I'm seeing him in a different light now. It'd be nice to know if there was a possibility there."

Toni smiled, maybe just a little bit. "Well, if you're going for clean cut guys, can't go worse than a Rogers."

"I know," she said. "What would you do if you were in my shoes? Would you ask or wait and see if things happened?" Anya smiled. "Or get your best friend to do some digging?"

[info]toni_rhodes
2011-11-05 06:16 pm UTC (link)
"Well, for one thing, I'd have to get some new shoes. Your feet are smaller than mine."

Toni resumed semi-seriousness. "Well, I could always go and do some digging..."

She let a spark go from a fingertip, floating up to the ceiling where it dissolved. "But seriously. Buck's a great guy. Go for it."

"Would you do some digging?" she asked and gave Toni puppy dog eyes. "I just want to know if he sees me more than a friend."

Anya smiled.

"What about you? Crushing on anyone?"

Toni laughed. "What're you, ten?"

She shook her head. "Nah. The well's been pretty dry for a while now."

"What? You've had more experience with boys and dating than I have." Anya hadn't done any dating in the past two years due to the bad stuff that had happened. She had thrown herself into finishing school and work leaving little time for a social life.

"Why? Damn girl. You've always had boys interested in you."

"Have you considered a letter? One of those "Do you love me? Check yes or no" things?" Toni teased. "I'll see what I can do."

She shrugged. "Just not really met anybody interesting, I guess. Avengering and college keeps me busy, and even without a secret id, it's really not fair to people not in the life."

"Now who's the ten year old?" Anya teased back.

"Yeah, I know what you mean. But then it really limits our choices if we're restricting ourselves to people in the life."

[info]toni_rhodes

Another shrug. "But hey, I'm doing okay not dating right now. Somebody'll come alone, or not. Not a biggie."

"You know what someone needs to open? A superhero dating service. For the cape set to get out there and meet each other. What do you think?"

Toni laughed at that, maybe a little longer than strictly necessary. "That is either stupid or brilliant. Maybe both."
