for me – go check them out, toss money at them! They deserve it!
I obsess over a lot of Tony/Bruce art but this might be my very favorite that I’ve seen. Can’t put my finger on why, but.

tony and rhodey being MIT babies
dumb MIT babies. who wear dumb MIT hoodies. and cuddle and smooch a lot
#all I can see is sixteen year old Tony#21 year old Rhodey#In the living room of Rhodey’s frat house#They’re not together because holy shit Tony is SIXTEEN and Rhodey is ROTC#and it is entirely possible that Howard Stark has hired someone to trail Tony#and Howard can’t stop the one night flings but he sure as hell could make life miserable for a kid with his eye on getting his wings#But Tony arrived on campus so full of promise and life and a desperate need to either do something brilliant or burn the world to the ground#That Rhodey loved him before he even knew it was happening#And Tony was so absolutely starved for anything like affection that he grabbed onto Rhodey and NEVER let go#Rhodey got shit for how touchy he and Tony were for exactly five seconds#Because both of them had spent their early teen years being cleverer than anyone else around them#and had learnt how to take down someone twice their size as a result#Not to mention in a school full of the best and the brightest Tony Stark was still fucking light years ahead of them#And he was a creative vindictive little fucker#Plus#There was just no hiding the fact that the Stark kid was kind of a pathetic mess#and anyone with eyes could see it was Rhodey that was keeping him together#So if Tony ended up wandering in and out of the frat like he lived there pretty quickly everyone just got used to it#He always brought the best booze anyway#Let him hug it out on the couch with Rhodes#And if the entire fraternity pooled their money to send flowers to the Stark memorial the year Tony never came back from Winter break#It was mostly because they knew Rhodey would spend the rest of his senior year looking like he really needed a hug#and not because they missed the little upstart at all#whoops look at the tags
