The Treacherous

"How ironic, Tony! Trying to rid the world of weapons, you gave it its best one ever! And now, I'm going to kill you with it!" [ independent MCU blog for Obadiah Stane ]

Sorry, I have to go now. If you want to plot, just ask me.

Pepper sighed, and moved to go to her desk. “So, you’re saying, that if I had just not done anything with what I found out, you wouldnt have came after me? You would just expect me to stand around and watch my best friend get killed?”

[perfiduslupus]

Obadiah shrugged his shoulders. "You didn't have to know about the suit. You know what they say, Pepper. Ignorance is bliss."

          “I know, mi dispiace— Obadiah, did anything happen in Switzerland?” 

[perfiduslupus]

"Not that I know of, Maria. And please, call me Obi."

"None of your business. But y’know, old models wear out"

[perfiduslupus]

"Hm, that's not what my sources tell me, Anthony."

[dontcallmepepper]

"That doesn’t help you at all, just saying" 

[perfiduslupus]

"Not my problem. Really."

[dontcallmepepper]

"Seriously, Obie what do you want, why are you wasting your energy with me?"

[perfiduslupus]

"I always liked you, Pepper. I enjoyed your company and despite what you think, I didn't want to involve you."

          “Don’t ask questions you already know the answer to—” 

[perfiduslupus]

"Simply making conversation, Maria."

[yournucleardeterrent-blog]

"Get out"

"I don’t want you here"

[perfiduslupus]

"Bringing back too many bad memories huh? I see you updated the arc reactor. What happened to the old one?"

[dontcallmepepper]

"That doesn’t help you at all, just saying" 

[perfiduslupus]

"Not my problem. Really."

          “I am glad to hear—”

[perfiduslupus]

"How is Tony? Still as bright as ever?"

[yournucleardeterrent-blog]

"Don’t say anything. Really, just don’t"

"You’re lucky you’re still standing"

[perfiduslupus]

"Well thank my lucky stars."

       ”If you say so— anyway, how are things in general? I hear that trip to Switzerland was one of success—?” 

[perfiduslupus]

"Oh definitely. We got the deal that we needed. I'd call that a success."

[yournucleardeterrent-blog]

"Actually, I should thank you. If you hadn’t ordered that hit on me I would still be a lonely, almost alcoholic, womaniser, who still was just a boy"

[perfiduslupus]

"Well, what can I say?"

          “I know, but— you know how it is.”

[perfiduslupus]

"I know, I know Maria. Ezekiel will be fine."

          “Don’t tell me what I already know— per favore, sit down. How is Ezekiel? Mi dispiace about Anthony the other day—”

[perfiduslupus]

"Ezekiel's fine. You know what boys are like, Maria. Boys will be boys."

[yournucleardeterrent-blog]

"Sure you are, just like you cared about how I was before, right?"

"Get out, and crawl back down whatever hole you crawled out of"

[perfiduslupus]

"Of course I cared, Anthony. You just knew too much. You tried to act like the big man but you're still just a boy. Throwing his toys out of the pram."

[yournucleardeterrent-blog]

"Not really, they’re just easier to defeat with the better suits"

"Why are you here?"

[perfiduslupus]

"I wanted to see how the prodigal son was."

           ”I’m glad. One day he’ll learn— here you go~”

[perfiduslupus]

"Thank you."

"I've tried to tell him to get out of the workshop once in a while but he won't listen. Stubborn ass."
