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,

The world is always going to hell, there's always some freaking rift in dimensions or mouth to hell opening - there's always someone with a bigger gun than you who wants it more. The world is always going to hell - you can't make your life all about that, either, or else you'd end up left with not much life at all.

Are you suggesting that I need to learn to relax and have a good time?

[kara_marie]

You're Tony Stark and I'm just some stupid blonde, I don't think it would make sense for me to suggest anything to you.

I'm just saying - there only thing stupider than a life all about saving the world is a life all about ruling it.

[iron_tony]

Believe me, I don't want to rule the world.

[kara_marie]

You'd have to be crazy to want to rule the world. Just look at it.

[iron_tony]

Doesn't that make saving it all the more essential?

[kara_marie]

Not essential. Maybe a good thing to do.

[iron_tony]

All righty, then.

So I'm doing it.

[kara_marie]

Bully for you. Bully for ALL of you.

Don't do this, Lorna.

You don't have to come in here and make me look stupid and pointless in front of Tony Stark.

For the record, I have no idea what you girls are arguing about, and I've given Henry a time-consuming assignment on a deadline so he doesn't end up having to referee it.
