10th Command; Video - dated to the night after the breach ended

[Nope. Screw you Bargians, he's not saying anything to you publicly.

... Oh okay, fine. Have a quick bullshit grin, the one he normally pulls at press conferences he'd rather die than be at.]

Well that was fun. We should petition to keep the brooms around.

[Private to Charles]

Alright, Chuck. Let's talk strategy, here. What's the plan for getting me out of inmate status? [He has a few things in mind as far as deals go, at this point. And he can't get those so long as he's stuck in the doghouse of the Barge.]

[Private to Steve]

What happens during Floods stays in the Flood. [Nope nope nope nope nope]

[Private to Arkady]

Any way I can have a few bottle of scotch to keep in my room, gorgeous? [He has a litany of BS excuses to give her, if she decides that's... a little much.

But Pepper's going to realize something's up sooner or later, and he wants a nice back-up supply of booze before that happens.]

[ooc: Hi I'm Em and I don't know the meaning of a hiatus. (at least not for tonight/tomorrow, beyond that I will be a little scarce)]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Well, first of all, I think you need to learn to actually like yourself a bit more. Do you mind if I ask what brought on the sudden enthusiasm?

Got the self-love covered, Prof. [Nope, totally bullshitting that.]

I have a few things I need to bargain for.

[Yeah sorry Tony Charles has been in your head, he's seen the self loathing thing. :|]

Agent Coulson?

[You should come join him on this river, Charles. It's kind of awesome. He's thinking of buying some property down here. A mansion or something. Maybe his own personal safari, a few speed boats.

'da Nile's awesome this time of year, bro.]

Yeah.

[Charles nods in understanding, and sort of considers what to say for a moment.]

Then I think the first step is at least trying to be honest with me about this. I've been inside your mind, Tony, I know you're not happy. You don't need to pretend like you are with me.

[Who, him, sounding a little rueful? NOT AT ALL. It's not happening.]

Sure. Whatever you say, Tony.

[Ignoring you, Captain Bullcrap.]

I mean it, Steve. You're still an asshole.

[... Fuckdamnit just don't notice that name slip.]

I made a mistake, and I'm sorry. A big mistake.

[He's just kind of... staring at the screen for a moment, evaluative, eyes narrowed.]

Fine. [Ugh. Being pissed at Captain America is like... having to punch a puppy every day. When the puppy knows it's coming.] Answer me this, then.

I still don't know you. On the barge we've had a drink once, fought zombies once, and then you go off, hold off an alien invasion with future-me, and suddenly you know me. And shawarma'd with me. [... He really wants to try shawarma damnit.]

So even with all of that, why the hell did you still let me walk straight into all of this?

I could barely stay on mine.

[He lets out a bark of a laugh at that]

Some people just weren't meant to fly.

I was still good at growling and snapping, though. Small favors.

[Private]

Are you alright?

[Zev why are you so intuitive what the hell he is so not used to this from people who aren't Pepper or Rhodey.]

It was a magical high school, why would I not be okay?

[Except any event that brings Howard or Obie back as key parts of his life is kind of like taking a few dozen punches to the gut.]

You were growling? [He's grinning, trying to distract] Missed that, sorry.

Sure, love. You have a proper tumbler?

Lacking one, actually. You have a spare?

[You are his savior, Arkady.]

I do. Need some designing fuel, then?

[She hopes it's that. She's mildly concerned, but one bottle isn't that unusual a request.]

Something like that.

[He's teetering at the edge of worrying people, and he knows it. Which is why, from here on out? He has to be more careful. A bit more sneaky. Has to put on his game face and charm drinks out of people.

All while studiously ignoring the little red flags going up in his mind at that]

Aren't brooms kind of useless if we can't fly them anymore?

Figured it'd be a no brainer that the flying would be kept.

Alright, editing. Petition for Quidditch to be added into this place.

Normally, I'd be all for that, but I'm sure some of the folks around here would just use it to maim people.

Right, the whole unstable psychopath side of the barge. We have telepaths, right? We could get them to screen everyone before they're allowed on the brooms.

[... He's thinking way too hard about this.

Someone keep him away from the supply closet.]

[Tim has a bullshit grin sensor, sorry Tony.]

I keep hoping we'll head to a Magician's Apprentice port, and bring back the brooms before they go totally nuts.

You okay?

You have Dis- ... if Disney has better marketing than Stark Industries, I really need to get back home and fix things.

[Nope, ignoring that question, Timmy.]

[And a chuckle because he knows evasion tactics when he hears them. But he can play along for the moment.] We're from different universes, you know. Honestly, Stark Industries kind of sounds like Wayne Enterprises.

[His evasion tactics are the best don't even question them]

Except Stark is definitely the superior name. [But that's... an interesting point. Namely since at one point they were (and still are, to some circles) referring to the company as Stark Enterprises.]
