[Raven clears her throat quietly.]

Hello? I'm not supposed to be here. Is anyone out there?

[She falls silent. Shaw wouldn't have taken only her. The feed stays silent for a few seconds as she ducks into an empty room to attempt to shift into a form Shaw doesn't know, just in case, and there is a quiet gasp.]I'm going to miss Cu- something really

[Oh, hey now, Tony totally recognizes that voice. He didn't talk to her much when she was here before, but he's pretty sure that's Charles's hot little sister.] Hey, you're that blue girl! Mystique, right? You're back in Aliunde, babe, it's okay. [Well, for a relative definition of 'okay' because being kidnapped and held on some strange planet against your will isn't really 'okay.']

[ironfail]

What's not awesome as laser beam eyes? [Tony is failing to see the problem here.]

[softenedbyme]

I suppose everything isn't as awesome, if you wanted them. I don't think I would.

[She shrugs.]

[ironfail]

Your loss then, I guess. All right, so what've you got? [Come onnn, tell him, Raven, he's being so nice right now.]

[softenedbyme]

Wouldn't you rather see than hear?

[Even if it possibly means waiting two months?]

[ironfail]

[Not again!] The suspense will absolutely kill me.

[softenedbyme]

How did you survive before?

[She laughs.]

[ironfail]

Lots of alcohol. [Okay not really, but it's his usual back up plan, so.]

[softenedbyme]

Doesn't a hangover just make time feel slower?

[ironfail]

Normally I just get more alcohol to counteract that. [Don't tell Pepper.]

[softenedbyme]

[Like Pepper didn't learn that years ago. Raven laughs again.]

That seems like a very dangerous cycle.

[ironfail]

So I've been told. [But hey, if it works it works.]

[softenedbyme]

We can't have you drunk at all hours just because of me!

[ironfail]

[Tony chuckles.] Don't worry, sweetheart, it won't be just because of you.

[softenedbyme]

You sure know how to reassure a girl.

[Dripping sarcasm.]

[ironfail]

[Smirking.] It's one of my many talents.
