Left in a box wrapped in gold paper and a red bow:
Things have been tough lately, boss. But you’ve completely adjusted.
Well. Almost completely.
Luckily, you have me, your best and most favorite PA to provide you with the things you need:
There haven’t been any explosions in the lab in quite a while (Yay! Gold star, boss man!), but Pepper and I can’t always be there to make sure you’re not mixing explosive chemicals when you’re tucked away in there. SO. This brand new phone is to make sure that you can get in touch with one of us if something awful happens, and it’s got this awesome clam shell design and HUGE number pad so you don’t have to struggle to see which buttons you’re pressing while waving the smoke and fumes out of your eyes! AND BOSS! IT’S RED!!!
ALSO:
Sometimes Pepper and I are super busy -- YOUR FAULT -- so obviously, you need this. If ever you should fall and be unable to get up, press that handy square button, and someone from Life Alert will totally be there to assess the situation and get in touch with the proper authorities. Then you’ll be free to focus on whether you’ll replace one hip at a time or just say to hell with it and do them both together. ;)
A handmade gold and red card tucked beneath both boxes, several voucher-like slips of paper inside:
In all seriousness, things really have been tough, and you’ve soldiered through it all. I’m not sure how you’re doing it, but I am sure it probably involves a good bit of self-neglect.
These are passes for the fancy spa you took me to when I first started working for you. Remember? Anyway, there are a few of those, some gift cards to the patisserie you took me to after I testified during my court case, and a pass or two (or eight) for private use of the race track and facilities at Monticello Motor Club.
You don’t need any of this from me. I know that. They’re just reminders, honestly.
Take some time to relax for once. Loosen up, stuff yourself with a bunch of shit that’ll give you diabetes but taste really, really awesome, and drive a bunch of fancy cars around in circles super fast. Have some FUN. Please. You need it. You deserve it.
Happy Birthday, Tony.
Love, Darcy
Peter needs one of those voiceovers that says “yeah, that’s me, you’ll be wondering how I got here.” Here being “standing on a billionaire’s floor in my socks because I forgot to bring non-rocket shoes”. Nebula is gonna be the death of him one day. Or of this guy. Or both.
He couldn’t exactly be like “Hey, I know we don’t get along but a crazy blue lady is gonna turn up and stab you if you don’t answer her questions the way she wants.” Hell, he doesn’t even know exactly what Nebula wants except to know Thanos is dead, and get some kind of super mega death weapon. Which is the kind of thing she should 100% not have. She said that her and Gamora could protect it. Maybe if Peter gets it, he and Gamora can deal with it. Or he could just get SHIELD to throw it in the Sun somehow. Besides, it’s not a total lie that his boots are broken. The left one still stutters a little from his initial fall to Earth, but it works well enough to not die. It only needed to be a good enough excuse to get him through the door. Except he’s been playing with his headphones and rocking back and forth on his heels for the last two minutes. Dammit, he’s going to have to just say it. “You didn’t actually fall for the repair thing, right?”

Steve raps his knuckles on the frame of the door -- one two three, less like a request for permission to enter and more like a death knell -- then leans to the side without actually entering the space. He’s 99.99% sure he’s not welcome to just stroll in anymore.
His voice is decidedly more even than he feels, low but timid as he addresses the room’s only occupant.
“ I was gonna bring a gift, but... I didn’t think you’d trust anything I brought you. “
ACCORDS tabled by UNSC for further discussion
It has been a tense 24 hours since first news broke of a break-in at the Hart Island facility for the incarceration of unregistered vigilantes and enhanced individuals.
What was first reported as a series of isolated events soon escalated into a facility-wide breakout that saw dozens of previously incarcerated unregistered individuals released under force of arms through the efforts of largely unidentified individuals seemingly acting in co-ordination with one another. Despite the damage caused to the surrounding area, casualties last evening have been reported at 18 missing and injured with none yet confirmed to have been killed.
This activity continued throughout the evening, and was punctuated by sightings of present and former Avengers members locked in combat with one another within this pretext. Leading this conflict at both sides were long-serving Avengers members Tony Stark and Steve Rogers representing pro-registration and anti-registration interests respectively. The outcome is unknown as of present - neither Iron Man nor Commander Rogers have been available for comment.
While much of the prison has been destroyed in the context of this great escape, incriminating evidence has been brought to light of illegal human experimentation through revealing footage and documents shared by none other than one of the prison’s former backers: Harry Osborn. In a statement made from his temporary position stationed at the Hart Island facility as one of the individuals who was directly involved in the overhaul of the facility, the new warden of the once-prison had this to say:
“It’s clear to see that, somewhere between planning and execution, the message of what the ACCORDS were supposed to achieve was mistaken for some kind of messed up investigation into the origins of superhuman ability. I think we can all agree that it’s for the best that we see this legislation take a backseat until its parameters can be defined as something every stakeholder involved at every level of this process can understand and appreciate beyond reasonable doubt.”
In the hours following the mass breakout and the ensuing leak of witness accounts and incriminating evidence through a multitude of legal and online channels, the United Nations Security Council ruled the present iteration of the ACCORDS as incompatible with the organization’s charter. The ACCORDS have been tabled for further discussion, pending extensive review and revision resulting in an unspecified execution timeline ahead.

This is more than a customary SHIELD check-in. Even if that is what is on the books. Stepping foot in the tower again feels as though he’s trying to navigate in the dark only to stumble. Steve feels as though he doesn’t belong here without his shield on his arm or the stripes on his chest. But his role with SHIELD as a liaison feels just as odd.
Once Steve gets off the elevator, he’s greeted by a face which makes everything seem a little bit more natural. “Thanks for meeting with me today,” Steve says as he walks up to Tony.
[ WORLD SECURITY COUNCIL CLASSIFIED ASSET DEPLOYMENT ORDER ] [ DISTRIBUTION: RESTRICTED (AD-HOC CODE CLEARANCE REQUIRED) ] [ RECIPIENT(S): [email protected] ] [ DATE: 29 APRIL 2017 ] [ ORIGINAL: ENGLISH // TRANSLATION: NONE // ENCRYPTION: OMEGA-13 PROTOCOL ] [ AUTO DELETION: YES // 12-HOUR ] [ DOCUMENT ID: WSC/C.A/SEC/7102 ]
Mr. Stark:
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, the World Security Council has voted to deploy S.H.I.E.L.D. Technical Asset #0862U as part of this Council’s continued effort to safely, effectively enforce the ACCORDS.
As spearhead of the original project involving Article L097VE ( ‘The Mind Gem’ ), you have been selected to oversee the Asset’s defensive actions, and will report directly back to the Council with quantitative data regarding the Asset’s success. Please bear in mind that at present, this Order is CLASSIFIED, and will remain so until such time that this Council chooses to release any details pertaining to your involvement, Asset #0862U, or the World Security Council’s ACCORDS enforcement effort.
Furthermore, considering the Asset’s provisional status and as-yet-undetermined usage protocols, at present this Council has elected to maintain full control of any ongoing efforts concerning Asset #0862U. To that end, the S.H.I.E.L.D. Directorate is not to be involved, and will be updated if necessary by this Council.
Please address any concerns directly to the World Security Council, following the customary encryption protocols. We anticipate your first field report within five business days.
Sincerely,
Maria Hill Secretary, World Security Council
