STAR WARS; A COLLECTION OF EDWARD NORTON/ROBERT DOWNEY JR. DRABBLES.
“Aren’t you a little short for a stormtrooper?”
"I didn't think you were this tall."
Robert frowned, loosening his tie and giving Edward a suspicious look. His jacket was already off and on the. On the floor and not the table he had thought he tossed it on, but it was close and not a jacket he particularly liked, so no harm no foul.
"I slouch. I'm a habitual sloucher. I heard that's bad."
That bastard was smirking at him and had the nerve to pick up the jacket, smooth out the wrinkles and hang. It. Up.
"It is, it's very bad, lying about your height like that. But there's worse. You and that," he gestures distractedly, "and being in your clothes still. It's bad. "
“You’re all clear, kid! Now let’s blow this thing and go home!”
After the half-day of shooting, the scene was only going to be a few minutes long, and after the ending credits. Following in Jon's footsteps in hopes of making many, many more Iron Man movies for the next twenty years, Robert was pretty willing to go all Pretty Woman for Marvel Studios. (Jon, it should be noted, didn't quite take that route. He didn't have to, he's So Money.) Not that there weren't perks to this gig. He got to dress up and be Tony Fucking Stark again and he got to push a big shiny button. Better than opening the stock market that one time.
And then there was Edward Norton. Who was offering to escort him to his trailer. His very fabulous, half-day trailer.
"You leaving after this?"
"Yeah. I gotta change, get this back to wardrobe, or you know, I might just keep it. Pull a Lindsay Lohan. This suit makes me look good."
"Didn't she just get out of rehab?"
"Yeah, here's hoping that works out for her. This isn't Saks Fifth Avenue, I think I'm safe taking my suit home with me."
"You want a hand with that?"
"Aww, is this a going away present?"
"...Uh huh, funny. If you want to keep the suit, try not to ruin it, okay?"
Notes: Yeah, I had no idea Edward was like 6'1.
