"No, she saves the tasty ones for dessert," he replied coolly, as close to a joke about one of their fellows as possible. He didn't think that she was going to get a different answer, given that Steve was obviously one who was put into position to defend the lack of partner on the arm or to lavish attention on. Now it seemed that Steve was intent on lavishing that sort of care and attention on him, which he didn't mind as long as it kept his friend happy. If it didn't, he'd chase Steve off to go and find someone to care about and settle with. "Well who do you have feelings for?"
He tilted his head and peered at Steve, suddenly uncertain. It seemed surprising for some reason that men were not prosecuted for enjoying the company of other men in such a way, though he couldn't think of why that would be. "Yes well... Stark would try everyone if he thought he could get away with it," he replied tartly and nestled his chin down into his curled metal elbow. "That also might not hold true for you. You aren't Stark."
