Sure, you can ask. Can't say that I'll answer.

You read it here first, anyway.

Well, I'm asking. What did you just do?

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:26:50 UTC

Huh?

You were right there with me, baby.

Are you getting senile in your old age?

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:29:38 UTC

Baby?

I saw what you did. I want to know why you did it, what you mean by it, and why the hell you didn't think to tell me about it beforehand.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:31:09 UTC

You're saying I should go back to SHIELD?

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:32:31 UTC

No, of course not. That job was never good for you. You're Iron Man, not Nick Fury.

But I don't understand why you chose now to quit.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:34:44 UTC

I can sign back up if you want.

W's already mad he's having to tear himself away from beach volleyball to deal with this. He'd be happy if I told him it was a joke.

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:35:53 UTC

Knock it off, Tony.

I just don't understand why it's so hard for you to just explain yourself.

We're partners. You're supposed to be able to talk to me.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:37:38 UTC

I want to spend more time with my family.

I didn't realize that was hard to understand.

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:39:07 UTC

I don't even know if "family" is part of some complicated joke you've thought up.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:42:03 UTC

I mean you, you idiot.

You and Sally and the Avengers.

But right now, mostly you.

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:45:14 UTC

Oh.

Oh.

I...

You still could have told me, beforehand.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:49:07 UTC

No, I couldn't have.

You're a terrible actor.

Also, I wasn't actually sure I was going to do it until I did it.

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:51:16 UTC

Why would there have been acting involved? We could have just made it an honest press conference.

If you're serious about this - if you're serious about me - then that's what we're going to do. An honest press conference.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 01:54:06 UTC

Did you watch the footage? Everybody standing behind me looked shocked. You included. Crazy, spontaneous Stark going off script again.

How would it have looked if you'd been the only one who was obviously in on the joke?

And we need to get the Avengers up and running first.

Re: *locked* starspangledcap August 12 2008, 01:59:57 UTC

Oh, now we need to have solid plans before we make wild, surprising announcements?

I love you, Tony. And I want the world to know that.

*locked* iron_tony August 12 2008, 02:01:52 UTC

There's a world of difference between quitting something and starting something new.

Also, you should come to bed.

Men's gymnastics is on.
