consistency is for schmucks.

Personally, I think you're full of shit. You try, you fail, the world spins madly on.

I think my money's on clones.

[ferreum]

So you're saying that a threesome is an option?

[widowing]

I'm not here to judge what you decide to do with a clone of yourself.

[ferreum]

I wouldn't have a mirror on my bedroom ceiling if I didn't like how I looked. Though I was thinking more about you.

[widowing]

I think that has the potential to end badly for you, especially if I'm the one with the double.

[ferreum]

What's a little more irresponsibility in my life?

[widowing]

I'm not sure you can get any more irresponsible.

[ferreum]

[ Tony smiles, showing all teeth. ]

You'd be surprised, Agent Romanoff.

[widowing]

[ natasha smiles back, though hers is more enigmatic. ]

I don't know if I would be.

[ferreum]

[ A click of her tongue against the roof of her mouth. (Enigmatic, maybe, but to Tony, bullshit cuts all the same way.) ]

Guess not.

[ideduce]

Your positivity, as per usual, astounds, Ms. Stark.

[ferreum]

[ With a lazy smile: ]

I try real hard, just for you.

[ideduce]

[ he returns it; it's good to see you, too, tony. ]

Were I a teenage boy, I expect my heart would beat all a'twitter at this precise moment.

[ferreum]

[ Seems like not too many people share that particular sentiment. She tips her chin, mouth quirking into something a little sharper. ]

And as a man, you still have all your clothes on, so I'm going to guess that this is a losing battle for the both of us.

[starked]

The world stops spinning madly on just to fuck with you is my guess.

[ thoughts in tony's head: i do make a very attractive female and i can say that with— actually no it's total narcissism. ]

[ferreum]

[ Is it masturbating if you do it with yourself? Important Life Questions.

Her smile cuts sharp. ]

Then I guess it's better to die sooner rather than later.

[bingsearch]

Wait, so. What's next?

[ferreum]

Depends. Do you still need to ask blondie out on that date?

[bingsearch]

No. But I've totally got a handle on how I'm going to, I mean, it's -

Wait. Why are we still talking about this? [ maybe it's because she STILL hasn't changed her desktop background. ]

[ferreum]

[ Ignoring the question, thank you: ]

Going to. As in you haven't yet.

[bingsearch]

[ sassypants time now. ]

This is that displacement thing, right? You're bothering me about my nonexistent soon to be existent dating life because you're avoiding something Pepper wants you to do, right?

[ferreum]

[ EXCUSEMOI, young padawan (!!!) ]

And unlike you, I know whether the leggy woman in my life likes girls.

[ :') ]

[bingsearch]

[ :| ]

So, what - is that another sense I'm supposed to develop or something? It'd help if I could find a willing certain labcoated someone.

[abetterway]

I wouldn't put it quite so candidly - but yes, they generally are.
