George Mason offers some friendly comfort for an angsty Tony.

Tony is outside by "his" tree looking decidedly full of woe. Somebody please give him 24 hugs, or something. He needs it.

After nursing a cold in his room for several days, George heads outside to check out the grounds and see what's around. May as well make the most of it since he's stuck in the bar, right?

He sees Tony and heads over, slowing his step as he approaches and realises Peanut doesn't look so cheerful. "Tony?" he says softly, from a few feet away. he doesn't want to bother Tony if he's wanting to be alone.

George steps closer. It's pretty obvious Tony is off in his own little world. And Michelle isn't around. Damn. George hopes they're not having problems.

He moves so he's standing in front of Tony, in his lin of vision. "Hey, you. Peanut." If that doesn't get his attention, nothing will.

George kneels, determined to make Tony talk to him. Even if it's just to tell him to get lost.

"Hey. I'm talking to you."

"Why the long face?" George sat down facing Tony.

"Oh. Damn. I'm sorry." George nodded sympathetically. "Wanna talk about it?"

George looks around. 12 seconds on the clock. That's another world, another life.

"I'm not going anywhere."

"On your lap? I'm already sitting down."

Damn, he must really be distracted.

George put a hand out to Tony's arm.

"It's okay. I'm a good listener. Or I can just sit here and not listen, if you don't want to talk."

"Try me." George smiled reassuringly.

"You hit Jack? Jack?" Whoa, he didn't expect that.

"Well. If you had good reason. I mean...you know."

"Oh." George sighed. "Well. I bet he's pissed then."

"Oh. I'm sure it'll work itself out. You two have been through a lot together. THings I can't even imagine, I guess. Pepole fight. It happens. Problem is you're both stubborn pig heads, so it'll take time."

"Well, you know I'm right. About the pid headed stubborn part. I could start a pool, which one of you will cave first and try to talk to the other." George cracked a half smile, hoping to lighten Tony's mood.

"My money's on you. Jack's too damn stubborn."

[identity profile] notafieldagent.livejournal.com 2005-06-16 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
George nods. "Yeah. Well. So, how are things otherwise? You finished with those Star Wars DVDs?"

"Cool. No rush. Just, you know. Whenever."

George turns and looks at the lake too. There's not really much he could say right then, and he sensed Tony needed the quiet anyway.
