TM 231: Everything Passes

[iron_tony]

Everything passes. Nobody gets anything for keeps. And that's how we've got to live." Haruki Murakami.

I call shenanigans. I'd call it a much-less-nice word than that, but I've apparently got a family audience to please these days. That's why they cut all the three-way references from the movie.I get the point, life is precious and transitory,

You sound like Stetins.

Which is funny cause she was ranting against Stark Industries when she was like this.

[iron_tony]

Sally said that?

[skids_sally]

She is very passionate about like finding a way to make the world better.

We talked about it over coffee.
I'm showing her NYC on Sunday!
The REAL NYC, not the statue and all that crap.
Like China town and stuff!

[iron_tony]

Take her to the sculpture garden at UN.

She always loved it there. She used to go with Steve.

[skids_sally]

Oh yes! We're going there too!! She's thinking of international politics or something like that, which would be pretty cool. I told her to talk to Ms. Grey about that.

[iron_tony]

Ms. Grey is -- certainly one possibility.

[skids_sally]

Well, Stetins seems to like Ms. Grey so it seemed like good advice...sorry?

OH! I should bring her along next time I go training! Then the two of them could talk. Ms. Grey is a really good listener.

[iron_tony]

Jean???

[skids_sally]

Yes, Jean Grey!!

She always listens to me.

[iron_tony]

Ahh.

[skids_sally]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!?!

Mr. Stark?

Mr. Hellrung...he's...he's not gonna hurt Lorna is he? Like emotionally?

I mean, he seems like a nice guy which is good. She totally deserves a nice guy...but you like know him and stuff.

He isn't gonna hurt her, is he?

Okay, (1) I hadn't ever pegged Jean Grey as a good listener but that's possibly because she was my girlfriend and not my middle school teacher, or whatever she was to you.

(2) Henry couldn't hurt a fly. Why would you even think something like that?

[skids_sally]

1. She's never been my teacher...not really. Mentor lots of times. And she is. Girlfriends don't always listen. Boyfriends don't either.

2. I don't know Mr. Hellrung. That's why I was asking. I'm just concerned is all. Isn't that like a good thing?

She seems happy and he seems happy and as long as he is good to her then I don't have to like figure out a way to LA to kick his ass.

[iron_tony]

Why would you be concerned for her?

Because he's my friend?

He's Pepper's friend, too.

locked

[skids_sally]

Not cause he's your friend, Mr. Stark.

I know he's Ms. Potts friend.

Just the guys that are like perfect, there's usually something...I have MAJOR trust issues!!!
