You can put me out of my misery. [He smiles a little].

[papastark]

Well, you can't blame a fella' for trying, right?

I'll be fine, Peggy. It's not going to kill me.

[papastark]

Yes, mother. If I do, will you make me soup too? [Smirks.]

[papastark]

Chicken noodle is fine. Just be sure to make it like mother used to make.

And I will need one more thing....

[papastark]

A blanket.

[papastark]

Thanks. You're a doll.

[papastark]

No, I think one will be enough. You can come snuggle with me if you want.

[papastark]

We could be sick together. Misery loves company. [He laughs.]

The thought of Thor and Steve fussing over me is frightening.
