[notbuiltforthis]

[Tony had finally handed over the suit he was modifying for her, and though Pepper wasn't certain that meant it was actually ready, she decided to take it out for a test run - more accurately, a test flight

[Dean's sitting out on the hood of his car, with beer in one hand, and he's looking up at the sky, but he's been poking through the phone and he's curious too.]

It looks like it's turning into somethin'. Look! [He steadies the shot on the sky and it sure does look curious. After a moment he turns it back to himself.] Probably got something crappy headed our way.

[notbuiltforthis]

[A sigh.]

Just what we were all missing.

[likemichael]

Probably a good idea to start preparing for more bullshit to deal with.

[notbuiltforthis]

It does seem like that would be the best course of action, doesn't it?

[Thor has been out flying and spots the suit before he hears the words being said. Landing nearby enough, he gives her a nod in greeting and looks up to the sky.]

It does seem ominous, does it not?

[notbuiltforthis]

[Imagine that. She flips up her faceplate as she turns to him.]

Have you seen anything like it before?

[...He has been around longer than the rest of them.]

[flipsalltables]

It reminds me of many tales I have been told, but I cannot say for certain.

[Thor watches the sky for a moment longer.] I do not think it is a weather formation. It is not a storm.

[notbuiltforthis]

Even a general idea may help, Thor.

[She'll take his word on that second part. He would know storms, after all, wouldn't he?]

[notbuiltforthis]

I don't imagine you have any information about it?

[notbuiltforthis]

...It may be best to wait and see if they bring it up on their own.

[She's hesitant to have a stranger do something that may put them in danger.]

[Action]

[Teddy's not actually familiar with that particular stretch of roof-tops, nor is he actually listening to her feed. He doesn't fly as fast as the suits, but it's still impossible to do both things at once without a computer in your helmet. And Teddy doesn't have a helmet.

But he does spot the shine of an Iron Man suit in the light, although he doesn't know what version (isn't there, like 30?) and he follows. He hasn't seen, or spoken to Tony in a while- and besides, there are things going on at the moment that are sort of worrying him. That cloud thing for one. It's like something out of a sci-fi alien invasion movie, although he knows from experience they don't need big black clouds for that.

So he follows the metal suit down, tucking in his wings once he's landed and heads over the gravel-covered roof] Tony! Tony hi!

[notbuiltforthis]

[If Teddy looks closely, there are a few minute details that are different on the suit. Pepper turns and opens her faceplate with a slight smile.]

Sorry, Teddy, it's just me.

[teddyalt_man]

[Teddy laughs, stepping closer. "Just" Pepper? That's mean. Besides, being alone on a roof-top with Pepper is probably far less awkward, even if she's his boss.]

Oh cool, this is your suit? It's amazing! [He wants to touch, but even in his fan-boy state, he knows he shouldn't. That is a step too far] How's it fly?

[notbuiltforthis]

[Well, when you're expecting Tony, she can be a disappointment.]

Tony finished modifying it last night. Well, early this morning. [She laughs. Teddy knows how Tony is.]

It's nice. The suits really are more comfortable when they fit you.

[selfantagonized]

If you were, I'd wonder where everyone else's mind was.

[notbuiltforthis]

We humans have an amazing ability to ignore possible disasters when we wish.

[selfantagonized]

Which is why it tends to come back and bite us when it's unwanted, right?

Still, this isn't something we should put on the back burner at all.

[notbuiltforthis]

Of course.

Can you help Tony make something to investigate it?
