guys according to Don Cheadle’s interview with Conan, this scene was improvised by Robert (video @ 2:00)
oh my god, that was really violent
#perfect example of how Rhodey talks to Tony #about tough shit #no tip-toeing around #no hand-holding and coddling #fuck that #we’re cracking jokes #and talking directly #and look at Tony #it’s EXACTLY WHAT HE NEEDS TO HEAR #respect #normalcy #being treated like himself #not handled like he’s fragile #do you know how fucking much he would hate that? #he would turn into the biggest asshole in the universe until that pity bullshit stopped #get away from him with that {x}
#yes #very rarely if ever will Tony be comfortable or allow someone to emotionally coddle him #blame the upbringing #aha I made myself sad #because it’s what he would have wanted #even craved for #as a child #;_; #ugh #ALSO IT OCCURS TO ME THAT TONY WOULDN’T HAVE KNOWN IF RHODEY SURVIVED THAT AMBUSH #UNTIL THIS MOMENT #OW(x)

Not actual high heel shoes, but I thought this was something that Tony would do so I wanted to draw it… ;w;
