Open Starter- Tony Stark

Open to all genders and universes

Tony was exhausted, he hadn’t slept in a week due to a new Stark Industries project and Avengers missions. His best way to combat this was to head to a bar. He sat outside these neat, somewhat quiet bar, with a scotch in one hand and a cigar in the other as he mulled over the day. When someone says down across from him, he looked up and offered a warm smile. “Hey, do I know you?” He asked.

[fidusinhomine]

“Relax, Tony. I’m teasing. Besides, a local tour guide could certainly be of use in this veritable concrete jungle… And if you really are happy to visit museums? Well, I’d be a fool to turn down your company, wouldn’t I?” She said, smiling brightly at him. Since her childhood, she had always held a mild worry that people would think her dull for her preference for museums over more fashionable interests, and even in this new world the concern remained.

“My brother was always more of a philosopher than myself. Quite the artistic and philosophical type, really. Ordinarily, I lean more towards empirical evidence and observable phenomena in the world around me if I’m honest with you. Time, and I suppose matters of the soul, seem to be amongst the few areas the two collide and find themselves somewhat intertangled” she told Tony with a pensive look, though that was soon followed by another sip of her drink and the return of her bright smile.

“Yes, I suppose that I’ve found myself liking New York more than I had anticipated… The hustle and bustle I could perhaps do without but the city itself? It’s just… It’s so modern, everywhere you turn there seems to be some technological advancement sat as part of the ordinary cityscape. It’s quite brilliant really”

[tin-can-mechanic]

Tony returned the bright smile with one of his own. “There’s the museum of natural history, El Museo del Barrio which is a fine arts museum, the Hayden Planetarium, there’s of course the Federal Hall, and quite a few more. Museums are everywhere here.” Tony was very excited, he loved museums but aside from Rhodey, no one ever wanted to go with him. 

Tony nodded. “I kinda float inbetween. I’m a man of science but I love philosphy. It’s just interestin to me.” He explained. “Time and the soul are odd. They’re not physical but we often only see or feel them in a physical way.”

“I reckon the best time is when it’s night, in the quieter areas of the city, you can see the stars… Well after the battle of New York, Stark Industries helped rebuild and it made the city look a little cleaner. We aimed to modernized both the design of some buildings and the materials used. Especially taller buildings that needed to be stablized. There’s been lots of new tech.” He smiled, taking another sip of his drink. “I always loved to go to  the national parks as a teen. Still one of my favourite parts of the city.”

[fidusinhomine]

Lana let out a soft, somewhat gleeful gasp when Tony mentioned the museum of Natural history, her face lighting up in a way it hadn’t yet since her arrival in this strange and futuristic time she found herself in. “Oh, I’d very much like that, Tony, the natural history museum that is. I imagine they have so many fossils, and perhaps a mineral collection? As a child I used to adore when my father would take us into london to visit the natural history museum there. And when I was small, he was friends with a man who owned his very own museum. Myself and my brother would run wild there, although, our freedoms at the museum did decrease when he gave up ownership of the museum. I was terribly sad” she commented, a fond smile on her face as she remembered those aspects of her childhood, names purposefully omitted for fear they would give away her rather unusual origins. “America has always looked so modern, I suppose because I grew so used to the patchwork of buildings from, well, our church was from the 12th century so I’m sure you can imagine the span of ages of other buildings... New York though, there are parts which look as though they were plucked from the pages of a science fiction novel... It almost makes me disappointed at the lack of flying cars, Tony” She said with a chuckle and a grin up at him.

"Already making further plans are we, Tony? How presumptuous..." Lana teased him, her smile shifting to what could almost be described as a smirk, "unfortunately I'm certain you'll come to regret that offer when I begin to pester you to show me the museums and such" she joked, though in reality she certainly wouldn't mind the help of a local. Although she had visited the city once or twice when she was a little younger, it had changed even more than she could have anticipated. She was just glad that at least the statue of liberty remained an iconic part of the city.

She watched Tony as he smoked his cigar, tucking part of her hair out of her face and back behind her ear before she answered him. "Time is rather a fickle thing, isn't it... It seems to either fly or drag, trying to rush or confuse you... I haven't been here that long though. A few weeks, believe it or not. I just... Have hardly left my flat for the duration of those weeks" she admits, her timeframe intentionally left a little bit vague.

Lana's eyebrows raised ever so slightly as she felt Tony's gaze studying her, though she said nothing and waited for him to be done. Her lips tilted up in a small smile, a hint of amusement crossing her eyes as though at an inside joke that no one but her knew when he asked about her moving there recently. Blonde curls bounced as she nodded her head. "Yes, something like that... It's all still rather new to me I'm afraid" she replied truthfully, aware that she couldn't share with him exactly how new things really were.

As he shook her hand and introduced himself, Lana couldn't control the slightest hint of surprise that crossed her face at his surname. Stark. It certainly explained why he looked ever so slightly familiar; there was no doubt in her mind that the man she now sat with was, in some way, related to Howard Stark.

"Well, if I'm to offer you my company for a little while, Mr Stark, you may as well call me Lana. Ms Taylor feels perhaps the slightest bit too formal for the establishment" she commented, amusement colouring her tone as she crossed her legs and took a sip of her drink, "May I perhaps call you Tony?"

Lana had already been sat outside, avoiding the hustle of the bar itself whilst she sipped on a much needed drink, wanting a little more peace than even the relatively quiet bar had to offer. When she noticed the other come outside, she had stood and walked the small distance to sit across from him, her own brown derby still in hand.

At his question, the petite blonde offered him a small smile and a shake of her head. "No, I'm afraid that I rather doubt either of us knows the other," she commented, her rp accent standing out somewhat amongst all the Americans, "You looked a tad lonely though. Oh, where are my manners... Lana Taylor" she introduced herself, setting her drink down as she offered him a hand.

@frozenandhandsome from here x.

"My apologies. I forget how easily scared you are." Edward said softly as he passed by her

Lana wrinkled her nose ever so slightly, sighing with pretend annoyance before her lips turned up in their inevitable smile, amused as ever by her young friend. “It’s not so much that I am scared easily, as the fact that you seem to move with barely even the sound of a footstep to give one warning of your approach. I think perhaps I ought to fit you with some tap shoes. You could come strolling along sounding like Fred Astaire, and no longer scaring the life out of me with your sudden appearance. Either that or a bell like a cat... I imagine the tap shoes would be considerably more dignified though” she teased him lightly.

[fidusinhomine]

frozenandhandsome

Edward’s smile was a little cocky but he reframed from making another comment that might cause him to give anything away to why he was so incredibly quiet, not having a pulse definitely helped. “A bell seems a little ridiculous.” He replied after a moment of silence, waiting for Lana’s heart to return to a normal pace. “Tap dancing was never really my thing, my sister has more energy for that sort of thing.”

Lana smiled as Edward commented on how ridiculous the bell idea was, looking up at him before she chuckled softly. “Well... You shall simply have to make a concentrated effort to make some sort of noise and not scare the living daylights out of your poor old lady of a friend” she told him, her hand laid over her heart. “From what you’ve said, I can certainly picture that little pixie of a sister that you’ve mentioned tap dancing... The other, Rosalie was it? She seems far too dignified for tap, more of a ballroom type of girl. Myself? I always wished to be a Ginger Rogers type of girl, just the right balance of fun and exuberant tap, and more collected and dignified ballroom...” she commented.
