teabq:notfknapplicable:archwrites:greatmoustachesploosh:Two times that Rhodey hands Tony something#where the second time is basically his goddamn heart #something they spent a good chunk of the movies pointing out how important that secret is #that only certain people could be trusted with the thing that is keeping tony alive #and not only does rhodey get to hold it #he gets to look into it and see how it functions #he sees the goddamn core of the thing #but no they’re not shippable #totes bros (tags via sigmundite)Don’t forget that Rhodey replaces the palladium core with no direction from Tony whatsoever. He knows where the extra cores are, pops out the old one, puts a new one in, and hands it off to Tony without a word. Which means that he’s worked with the arc reactor before. Which means that Tony explicitly trusts Rhodey. With his life.Rhodey is also the only character who Tony will literally let himself lean on when he’s in pain so obvious he can’t hide the need for help anymore. The exception to this was in IM3 when Tony finally admitted to Pepper that he was hurting mentally after the attack on New York. Which just went to show how much Tony and Pepper’s relationship had developed at that point. -- source link
