((Duke Devlin Vs. Howard Stark))

A drabble prompt from corporate-anthroparion on my account godfather-of-games. Posting it here, too, because. It's Howard.

--

“Dude. You’re old.”

At that, Howard looks a little put out, folds his arms over his chest and gives the boy a rather condescending stare. Moustache twitches, so does a vein in his temple.

“Age is subjective.”

“No, it isn’t. You’re either old or you’re not.” 

The youngster combats in quick succession and Howard is damingly reminded of his son. But a trifle less manly. He frowns at the man called ‘Duke Devlin’ and clicks his tongue impatiently, hands moving this time to his pockets, where they remain. He feels himself being put to shame by a juvenile and it’s grating his ego to bits. It’s unpleasant. 

“Can you fly?” Howard throws this one, because as far as he knew, kids today seemed to know how to drive far more than they did pilot a plane.

For a few moments, Duke looks stumped, before retorting indignantly.

“No. Can you play Duel Monsters?”

“… No, I banned Tony from playing games aimed at 10 year-olds.”

The dark-skinned male looks utterly outraged and Howard realises, with an elevating feeling of smugness, that he’s hit a nerve.

Pre-seventies.

Besides, what example do I have to make? I make the trends, I don't follow them.

[telepathic-labrat-deactivated20]

You’re being a terrible example of the people of our time.

[stark-senior-blog]

I'm not 'of your time', Charles.

Something the matter, Mr. Xavier?

"I don't feel like getting dressed properly today."

Howard has left the building.

It’s nice to know you lived your happiest time when you still didn’t have a family, Dad.

What is keeping you here?

[stark-senior-blog]

Same thing that's keeping you here, except more permanent. I don't know. I'm researching it. 

/He decided to casually avoid the accusation, nursing the sherry in his hand as a means of distraction.

Really you’re the older version of Mr. Stark in his young body? Really?

Mind your own business, Francesca. You know I punched another version of you, it was quite satifying.

[stark-senior-blog]

Control your metaphorical parent, Tony.

And no. Not at all. I'm Howard Stark at the age he died. Dead. In a state of life-nor-death and floating around in a body that I would have apparently taken up in the afterlife. They do say, after all, that when you go to Heaven, you're taken back to the age at which you were happiest.

Not that I'm in any sort of Heaven.

I'm stuck here.

Not long really, since I have more important things to deal with. Like my death. Besides you’re not even my father, you’re his younger version.

[stark-senior-blog]

If you don't believe that I'm your father, I can describe, in very vivid detail, the night you were conceived. I have been reverted to an incorporeal state of... something. I'm still very much the man who died in a plane crash. 

I don't have an age, at present.

You haven’t taught me anything.

Good morning, Mr. Stark it’s a pleasure to meet you. And you’re probably right, I am happy Tony can finally talk to someone.

[stark-senior-blog]

Bitter, hm. How long do you intend to hold a grudge, Tony?

[the-immortal-irishman-blog]

Nathan rolled his eyes in annoyance, but could feel the air leaving once again, and despite the fact he knew he would live, began to panic once more.

“Just get me fuckin’ outta here you asshole! I’m dying in here!”

[stark-senior-blog]

He hesitated for a few moments more, mostly out of curiously but also caution, before shrugging and deciding that his philosophy of 'you won't get anywhere in life without taking risks' was very much required in this particular situation.

He pushed the lid of the coffin with both hands, forcing it from his shoulders downwards.

Tony.

How many of you did Maria have?

[likefireandoxygen-deactivated20]

My mother had one of me, thank you very much.

Tony be polite, he’s your dad. I am sorry, Mr. Stark. He’s kind of bitter right now because he’s dead. And I don’t even know if you can see or hear him, because some people can’t.

[stark-senior-blog]

Tony, I've taught you better than to be so dismissive. 

Morning, Miss.

And, of course I can see him. I would assume I'm more dead than he is.
