Hey everyone

Go give @justsoldiers some encouragement. They deserve it!

“Oh Tony, I already ordered take out before I ever started breaking in.” Natasha replies, kicking her feet up on the closest nearby surface. “You should know better by now, really. Once I come in, I don’t just leave.” 

She shrugs. “If that’s what I needed to do.” It wasn’t true. She’d hesitate to kill any of her friends family. Even if it was for their own good. She cared for too much about them now. They’d compromised her once cold interior.

“So we’re having a sleepover? Do we get to paint each other’s nails and have naked pillow fights? Isn’t that what the media portrays sleepovers as these days?”

“See? That’s why you’re allowed over. You think these things through. What’d you get? Italian? Sushi? Chinese? You know what, anything is good.” I know this bakery, they’ve got these champagne macaroons that are amazing. I’m partial to the champagne ones, but now that I’m thinking about it, I’m ordering a huge box.” He turned  his attention to the monitor. 

“F.R.I.D.A.Y. you hear that? Go ahead and do my party order.” A confirmation from the A.I. came seconds after. 

“Naked pillow fights?” He chuckled slightly, returning to the system on his table. “I don’t know what teen bop movies you watched, but send me the list. The PG versions typically require pajamas. I don’t have any problem with facials and manicures though. A little R&R, some treat yo’ self fun, the like.”

And of course she had figured he would be insistent. He always was. Still, she’d prepared for this. She’d slept for as long as she possibly could before making her way to Stark Tower. If he was going to make himself miserable, then the least she could do was be miserable with him to keep him from isolating himself further.

“Fine. But I’m staying whether you like it or not.” She retorts, grabbing a chair and sitting down, “Even if you are wasting a perfectly good resource and won’t let me help. You get 32 hours, Stark. You don’t get it finished by then? I’m putting you to sleep for your own good.”

Sure, if it came to that he might be incredibly angry with her but she didn’t really care at this point. The worst he could do was hell at her and tell her he hated her guts. He wouldn’t be the first person she cared about to do such things and he certainly wouldn’t be the last either.

It worked? Maybe he should try something else. No, that’s pushing too much. He’d better not risk it. After all, she could kick two people at once...midair...in splits...while shooting two other people. 

“Fine.” He echoed, pulling another tool set out and returning to his work. “Call in some take out, pull up Netflix, whatever people do when they’re having a sleepover. Pepper’s not due back for three more days, so all the rules are out the window. And J.A.R.V-I mean F.R.I.D.A.Y.’s rules are more like suggestions.” 

He paused and looked up at her. “Also, is it bad that I heard that as ‘putting you to sleep for good’? Because that’s definitely what I heard.” Was it too early to crack a joke? Eh, it was worth trying. “It seems to fit you. The ‘kill you to protect you’ kind of vibe.”

The woman sighs, resisting the urge to just knock him out to force him to sleep. He was being an ass and he damn well knew he was. Thankfully, the Russian spy was far more than used to him attitude by now. She moves in front of him, blocking his line of sight.

“I don’t do apologies, Tony, you know that.” She lets her arms fall back to her sides, a frown clear on her expression. “Let me help you before we have to fight and then you have to pay to have more of the tower repaired because I promise it will get messy.”

Tony paused and closed his eyes for a moment. With a sigh, he opened them and fixed her in his gaze. He didn’t need this now, there was too much work to do. 

“So how’s this going to work? You going to Vulcan nerve pinch me? Cognitive Re-calibration like you did with Barton? Sleep gas in your wrist watch?” He put his hands on his hips, ready to stare her down. If it were anybody else, he would have just put up an ever stronger front. But Natasha was enough like him, with the same chinks in their armor. There wasn’t much point in lying about this.

“Look I don’t know if you got you wok done early and just decided you had nothing better to do than babysit me, but in case you forgot, I’m the reason an entire city was destroyed. I have twenty other A.I. systems that could go the same way.” His voice was steady-years of practice, but his hands were clenched. He took a breath and slid his hands into his pockets, a more neutral vibe entering both his posture and tone.

“Maybe you don’t apologize, but maybe you’ll forgive me if I choose to sacrifice a few days of sleep so that I can sleep soundly. If you want me to rest, then I will. But I’m going to finish this first. It’s my responsibility, and I can’t rest unless I take them apart myself.”

“Aw shit, sweet flip!”

 “Don’t look so stupid now, do I? You tiny bitches! “

“Great job, Angela Lansbury! Don’t know how you pieced that one together! “

“Hey! What’s your handle, kemosabe? “

“Hot diggity shit, that is a baller cookie. “

“I’d hate it. Shut the fuck up.”

“I don’t know a fuckin’ thing, my guy.”

“I don’t think my dog could fit in an ass.”

“Is it time for us to do our sexy turn on the catwalk?”

“It smells of exotic spices!  “ 

“I’ve got a fuckin’ idea for ya.”

“No dogs on the moon, they just run right off the goddamn thing.”

“That’s a real sweet thought. Hey, highfive me right now.”

“That’s some other DnD game’s problem. “

“The memory of my grandpa’s name died long before I was born.”

“There has to be a way to cheat with magic… “

“This is actually what I was exactly afraid of, this is the nightmare scenario.” 

“We can’t kill Tom Bodett!”

“We’ll always remember you until three episodes from now when all we can remember is “Juicy Wizard”

“WHY DID GOD LIE TO ME!?” 

“You haven’t seen this ass!”

“You wanted to lure me in there you should’ve stayed handsome, my fella.”  

[somnia-viatorem]

“You can be an ass all you want to, Tony, you’re not going to get to me. I know you’re just being this way because you’re defensive and you probably haven’t slept in days.” She replies, not even bothering to look at him. She’d learned almost immediately upon meeting him the he used being a jerk to try and hide the fact that he felt emotions. 

She sighs softly. “You’re running yourself into the ground. At least let someone help you. Let me help you or let Bruce help your or Steve or someone. Pepper even. Just… stop trying to take all of this on your own. We’ve all made mistakes and we all pay the price for those mistakes. Believe me, I know that more than just about anyone.”

Natasha was used to this. Used to him acting like a child who wanted his way when he felt like someone was threatening him finishing whatever project he was working on. “I’m smarter than I look, you know. I could help. Bruce might be smart, but he’s science smart. I’m tech smart.”

“You’re probably the third person to question my sleeping habits. Nobody cared how little I slept before all of this. Then you start fighting aliens and suddenly everybody is concerned. It’s some strange double standard.” He pauses to take a sip from his very cold coffee as the diagnostic program started up. 

“Captain can’t work a toaster and I haven’t seen any sign of Bruce since the Quinjet disappeared. As for you, I’m sure you’re skills are better put to use with dealing with the fallout of S.H.I.E.L.D. than taking apart computers. These are my personal projects, and I’d prefer to take care of them myself.” His projects, his mistakes, his responsibility. There was an element of shame; he’d worked hard to avoid the mad scientist reputation. It was only natural that he’d want to avoid people seeing just how close he’d become to being one.

“And I know that you’re tech smart. You’ve hacked my database before-I still haven’t heard an apology for that, by the way. I accept cash donations, starbucks gift cards, and stolen sensitive information.”

Sure she knew she could get in through the door any time she wished, but that wouldn’t annoy Tony so what was the point? “It’s a habit. You should thank me. I’m checking for holes in your security. By the way, I didn’t use the door yesterday so you should work on that.” 

Still, as much as she will stand there and snark with Tony, she was truly worried about him and the way he was shutting himself away like this. The woman moves to stand next to him, crossing her arms over her chest as she observed what Tony was working on.

“No one sent me. I came on my own free will because I happen to consider you a friend, Tony, which means I care when you start disappearing on me and not answering phone calls.”

“Thank you? You should be thanking me for turning off the alarms each time. Otherwise you’d be a crispy Pirozhki. Luckily this place has been Clint-proof for quite some time, so the retribution I’d face would be minimal.”

He sent out the command to F.R.I.D.A.Y. to have the parts organized by function and highest priority. He glanced up to check the screens, each with a collage of programs running simultaneously with news feeds and police and government threat warning systems. One running the current damage and restoration projects being done to repair the damage caused by Ultron.

“I’m sorry that I couldn’t make it to our weekly tea and gossip session, but even I have to go to work every now and then. I know that everybody thinks that billionaires get to simply have fun and goof off, but I do have to manage a business. There are charities, board meetings, contacts and my own personal projects that have to be monitored.” He pulled another system from a nearby cart and began dismantling that as well. “Oh and my phone’s been dead for a few days. I’d have charged it, but it’s upstairs.”

[somnia-viatorem]

@justsoldiers​ literally asked for this

“Now I know that you know that there’s a door. I installed your biometrics on it last week, so that you could come and go as you please. And I know that you remember this because you left some sort of Russian tea on the counter yesterday. So my question is, why are you still breaking in?”

Tony didn’t look up from the scramble of machinery laid out on the workbench in front of him. He knew Natasha could easily have snuck in without making noise, but had done so as a greeting. But he was getting real tired of having his air duct thermodynamic monitors going off once a week to tell him there was an intruder. It was the principle of the thing, you know?

“And I’m not sure just who sent you to check on me, but tell them to face me themselves like real people.” A quick scan of what remained of a former A.I. system he’d been constructing showed the various uses each piece had. He’d been at it for two weeks now, disassembling all of his A.I. projects that weren’t used for his suit or home. After everything that had happened, the guilt was making it hard for him to sleep.

Tony sighed before walking over to the fridge. He rummaged through it as he listened to Peter’s story. “Geez kid, never a dull moment with you is there?” He muttered before spotting what he was looking for. He tossed the ice pack to Peter while he unlocked one of the many first aid kits that Pepper had insisted he install around the tower. 

“I take it you can walk, if you’re able to raid the fridge and cabinets? If so, then park it in the chair.” It wasn’t the kind of reassurances that his own parents would have given him, which was a good sign. If anything, he was applying a mixture of Jarvis and Pepper’s treatment. “I’m pretty sure your incredibly hot aunt will notice if you come home looking like you got into a fight with a meat tenderizer.”

@alwaysonafieldtrip liked for a starter

“What...look kid just because I gave you access to my tower doesn’t mean you get to one: raid the snack bar, and two: bleed all over the floor. At least let me know when you drop in so I don’t come home to a dead teenager in my living room.” 

He’s not as mad as he sounds, of course, but he has to draw the line somewhere. Oh how the Tony from even three years ago would cringe to see him playing the role of adult for once.
