[ The device is situated perfectly as it almost always seems to be in this place, zooming in and capturing a red and gold suit of armor flying high above a sea of trees and headed straight toward a larger, bulkier, but still sleek silver suit. Red and gold twists and turns and does a few tricks, palms glowing white and blue as it shoots out a few

You really should be more polite to Colonel Rhodes.

[ironmanic]

To wh-- are you seriously calling him that?

[punchedhitler]

Of course I am.

He insisted I not but you do know he outranks me, right?

[ironmanic]

Does he?

That's-- awful. Or it would be if I were Captain America, but I'm not Captain America, so I supposed to you it's all badges and rank because you're like that.

He doesn't have a statue, though.

[punchedhitler]

It's not all badges and ranks.

[Wait.]

I have a statue?

[ironmanic]

Sure it isn't.

And sure you do. Is all this really that surprising to you or do you just not make the right inferences when I talk about this?

[punchedhitler]

I'm really not comfortable with a statue of me.

Is it somewhere embarrassing?

[ironmanic]

I assure you, I visited it during my 5th grade and 11th grade field trips- it is cut handsomely and accentuates all your best features. Very flattering. It's on the cover of TIME like at least three times a year.

It's somewhere the military owns. [nonchalant about details...]

[punchedhitler]

...do you have a statue?

[ironmanic]

Why would I have a statue? I'm just a national treasure.

I do have a building with my name on it. Well- my father's name. But it's technically also my name.

[punchedhitler]

I have a statue.

A statue that schoolchildren visit.

[ironmanic]

Welcome to the world of the rich and famous where you get fanclubs and impressive, only slightly exaggerated statues of yourself.

[punchedhitler]

I'm not rich, Tony.

[ironmanic]

You could have been easily in my century. Celebrities aren't celebrities and heroes and heroes because they're just average.

[punchedhitler]

I just want to move back to Brooklyn.

[Don't say he's dead Bucky doesn't know and he's not ready to tell him okay?]

[ironmanic]

That's it? No other teenage dreams and goals like- getting the latest...record player.
