forever homeless i'm sure;

[batterypowered]

You're kidding me with this right? I see you over there, giving me eyes, then the other guy, and that app isn't even mine.

I have to tell you, I'm deeply offended. Stark Industries is offended. Your nation is offended. (Well, actually, they're always offended, but this one occasion is specifically for you. There are trophies with your name on them and everything, I'd know, I had them engraved.)

Come on, what is this, I'm only worth 12% of your time? It hurts, it really does.

[chaostic]

12% is much more than a meager human deserves. I would venture for you mundane to reconsider. Spend far less time than allotted.

Clearly they're wasting even such a miniscule percentage on you, Stark

[batterypowered]

Well, you're wasting enough talking to me, I mean, clearly there's something to be said for my irresistibility.

[chaostic]

If the irresistible urge to wipe a particular individual from existence counts in that category then I shall concede to this.

[batterypowered]

Great job you're doing there on the elaborate plan to kill me. What are you, a James Bond villain?

[sonofcoul]

I think it's safe to file the situation squarely under 'inconvenience' instead of 'tragedy', Mr. Stark.

[batterypowered]

Phil, Phi--I forget, is it still okay if I call you Phil? Let's just be honest and say that "inconvenience" is your convenient way of ignoring the problem until it's blowing up in your face. Most of the time, literally.

[sonofcoul]

Feel free to call me Phil for as long as it doesn't just feel weird to you, Mr. Stark.

And do you really think that this is the kind of problem liable to blow up in your face?

you said the name

[flightofdeath]

Learning one's place can, at first, prove difficult, but acceptance should come with time.

I AM CRACKING THE FUCK UP

[batterypowered]

That's great, but I'm not looking for a twelve-step plan, kid. Those never work.

[You're one to talk about demands on someone's time, Big V.]

[incrediblebanner]

Somehow, I think you'll survive.

I AM SO SORRY.

[batterypowered]

Maybe. [But that would require some attention, all of which is elsewhere at the moment.]

You know, you're looking a bit...perkier than usual.

oh, Tony.

[incrediblebanner]

Perky is not the word most people would use to describe me.

[hotpeppers]

Oh, well now you know how that 12% feels.

[batterypowered]

I might have had that coming, fine. But from you, not from someone I don't know.

[let_it_go]

That's a lot of offended people. Some countries do seem more restless than others.

[batterypowered]

This one more than most.

[let_it_go]

Which country do you speak of?

[As queen, she definitely had to know this.]

[anomaliiiiies]

The offense is rather strong, Mr. Stark.

[batterypowered]

Exactly my point. Frankly, I'm offended on behalf of everyone else who's offended.

[ms_pepperpotts]

Mmm. I'm sure that is only an oversight.

[batterypowered]

No, Pep, an oversight is getting the wrong topping on a pizza delivery. This is...well it's...I think we call this a travesty? Tragedy. Similar t-words.

[thecavalry]

That's some considerable amount of sand in your panties, Stark.

[secretways]

The suit not enough to prevent you being overlooked, Stark? [Loki looks pretty amused at your annoyance.]

[batterypowered]

You're one to talk, Rudolph.

[secretways]

Ah, but you never overlooked me.
