[And that's how they get the poptarts open. It's also how Tony gets crumbs and poptart pieces all over his kitchen floor. He almost throws his hands up and goes off on Jack about do you want ants, because that's how you get ants the extra inconvenience it is getting a maid up here when they're all candy bar sized. BUT....
He manages to hold it in. Somehow. He needs another bourbon.]
...I guess you do come in handy. Sometimes. Five second rule.
[Aka anything on the floor for less than five seconds is still edible. Just picking up a piece of poptart and sitting down (...after righting the table) with it and a glass, alcohol generously being poured into it. No offers for Jack because he assumes Jack has class. Or. Something. Whatever shady professors do.
You know he's realizing being not a complete asshole is verging on the impossible when he's (relatively) sober and Jack's whole presence just...kind of annoys him... Hmmm. 500 Days of Why Tony is the Problem in this CR right here.
So what are the plans for today? Meetings, classes, teacher...stuff? I have no idea what you do all day.
[He says it like this is completely normal. But deep down they both know it's awkward as hell. Probably. Amount of times Tony has ever shown an interest in Jack's life: 0 and going into the negatives.]

Anyway he has a tiny sized newspaper because it really is just as easy as changing the font point in Word. Probably. First headline: April Showes Bring May Flowers, a look into Recollé's indigenous flora and a picture close-up of a glowing flower. What is this trite crap, gag him. Tony flips to sports. At least the score listings don't insult his higher thinking skills. This is a terrible tag. Semi-mercifully he does acknowledge he's an asshole and as such:]
