"It’s called allergies, Caitlin. You can’t catch anything from them." Tony didn’t quite understand how their relationship didn’t improve over the last two years, but nearly two years on in their working relationship Kate still believed the same rumors she learned when she started and refused to change her perspective. There had been a period when things seemed to be getting better, they wouldn’t ever be best friends or work spouses, but then four months ago a new set of rumors about Tony’s "playboy ways’ sprung up and it was like they were back to the start. She now fully believed Tony was nothing more than a womanizer and playboy. Cases dealing with women especially became annoying to handle with constant pokes from her whenever Tony made a comment. During one case where they were dealing with women being abducted and locked in basements, she even joked that the only way Tony would get someone to marry him was if they got Stockholm Syndrome. Tony ended up filing an official complaint to Gibbs at that one and Harry was rather pissed when Tony told him about it.
