"Rhodey"

"So." Rhodey glanced across the table to where Agent Coulson was stirring his coffee. "Why did you ask to meet me?"

"I was wondering whether you could surrender any Stark-wrangling tips, since you're his oldest friend."

"At least you're honest," Rhodey said, and he sipped his Coke. "Don't you have more experience in people-wrangling?"

"Not people like Tony Stark," the agent said, grimacing.

Rhodey laughed. "There's no one like Tony," he agreed.

"And there's no one like you, Colonel Rhodes."

He couldn't ignore the way Coulson was smiling from behind his mug, eyelids at half-mast. Flustered, Rhodey changed the subject.


Couldn't resist the challenge. I don't think there's been much Coulson/Rhodey fan fiction written. What would the ship name be? Phodey? Colonel Agent? Colcoul?
