Oh, I am not a fan of that trope either. I ♥ Rhodey and it makes me happy to see him included in fics. I read Situation Normal: All Fucked Up by gyzym recently, which is a Steve/Tony fic with wonderful Tony & Rhodey bro-ness. Seriously, they are so funny together in this story and Tony is so excited to see him. Added bonus: Bucky!
