Dublin, Ireland, Sunday Evening

[imafuturist]

Well, the homes in Austria and Greece were both still under construction with a more defensive mindset after AIM attacked one of them. And Tony had (needlessly) promised Steve a vacation for the little break between classes.

Which was why he'd surprised him with a trip to Dublin!

Look, Tony had this need to be Tony sometimes and it was best to just let him get it all out there. Otherwise you ended up with giant teddy bears and rooms filled with roses. Sorry not sorry, Steve.

"How do you like the room?" Tony asked, setting his bag down.

"Well, they don't want you to break them easily." Also, yes. Waterford crystal.

"What kind of hoodlums do they let into this hotel?" Steve teased.

[imafuturist]

"Oh, you know how it is," Tony replied. "Can't leave the Americans anywhere."

[heroic_jawline]

"It's true," Steve said. "We ruin everything."

[imafuturist]

"The worst," Tony said, pouring him a glass and then one for himself. "Oh, and check to see what dessert they gave us. Apparently it's bespoke for every guest."

[heroic_jawline]

"So we get two?" Steve asked, heading back to the cloche, "or one to share?"

[imafuturist]

"You know, I'm not sure." It would be decidedly Avengers themed somehow.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve chuckled. "What are you betting on?" he asked.

[imafuturist]

"I'm guess... apple based for you," Tony said after some consideration. "Or dark chocolate for me."

[heroic_jawline]

"Chocolate Guinness cake," Steve guessed, nodding, "with a sugar helmet."

[imafuturist]

"If it's not that, we need to order that," Tony said, taking a sip of wine.

[heroic_jawline]

"I'm a little afraid of opening it and being disappointed now," Steve admitted.

[imafuturist]

Tony had to laugh at that. "We have the week here to hunt down all the things we need. There's a whiskey museum walking distance from here, you know."

[heroic_jawline]

"You can't buy it," Steve teased, opening the cloche.

[imafuturist]

Which presented them with a rich looking chocolate cake with a very stylized A in chocolate work on top.

"Can I buy this place?" Tony asked, looking delighted by the treat.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed. "You don't need to own more hotels."

[imafuturist]

"But cake!" Not a reason to buy a hotel, but okay.

[heroic_jawline]

"You don't normally get cakes at hotels," Steve said. "Buy a bakery."

Steven. Steven, don't encourage this.

[imafuturist]

"You know, that's not a bad idea," Tony said, stabbing a fork into the cake to taste without cutting like a civilized person might.

[heroic_jawline]

"Maybe in Paris?" Steve suggested.

[imafuturist]

"I'm hold you to that," Tony warned, offering him a fork to eat the cake with him in the most decadent fashion possible.

[heroic_jawline]

Steve laughed. "It'll keep us in cake," he said, leaning in for the bite. "You'll have to come running with me."

[imafuturist]

"Oh, is that why we're teaching baking again this year?" he teased.

The number of things they would burn.

[heroic_jawline]

"...sure," Steve agreed.

[imafuturist]

Tony snorted, taking another bite for himself. "We can hide the baker from here to run it for us then."
