"Alright, Jarvis, you getting this? This is test seven. Last one didn't count," Tony said, holding his hand about a foot away from the gauntlet ( Read more... )

I've said that there's a subtle difference between being prepared versus being paranoid. Introducing myself as Kate Bishop as opposed to Hawkeye wasn't really a problem, but walking around unarmed on an island that supposedly has dinosaurs is just stupid. It's for that reason alone that I'm still wearing all of my gear. Well, that and the fact that the caliber of weapons I'm packing don't really go with the 80s prom dress that box tried to give me.

I've been wandering around for a few hours now when I come across some sort of scrapyard. This in itself is sort of strange, but I'm more surprised by just who's standing in the middle of it. He's not in full gear, so calling him Iron Man doesn't really seem appropriate. I decide to just stick with-

"Tony?"

Tony looked up. He didn't recognize her, but he didn't recognize a lot of people, a number of whom he had in fact met. Several times.

She didn't exactly look like he ran into her at a lot of parties, though. Too young. And yet, the first name basis. Odd.

So he went with a safe, "Yeees? Yes. That's me, hello."

"You don't recognize me."

It's not a question and I don't sound disappointed. I've already gotten my lesson in time-travel with Sasquatch, and I've never been a fan of repetition. The Young Avengers haven't exactly been around for a long time, so I'm not even that surprised.

"Hi," I add belatedly.

"Not even a little," Tony said. He even sounded a little apologetic. A little.

Not just because she was... pretty well-armed, there, even if the armament was a little retro.

"Happens a lot. Here, especially, it happens a lot," he explained, picking up a screwdriver and starting work on adjusting the gauntlet, since it had went on so tight it wasn't going to come off easily. He'd have to work on that. "I know you from... the superhero business?"

Educated guess. What with the costume and all. Otherwise, who the hell knew? ...hopefully, an illegitimate child would be more upset by all this.
