[Ye old Anthony Edward Stark is pictured here looking tired but altogether not too bad. His hair is a little longer with some highlighting; not too much, of course. As per usual, he's dressed to the nines in a suit.It wouldn't be too much to ask how long I've been gone. JARVIS wasn't able to keep tabs on the bulk of what happened during my absence ( Read more... )

Eight months, huh?

Hows that problem you didn't have?

How long have I been gone? Not an actual eight months. Obviously your efficiency would've cycled you out of here before then.

Peachy.

Two weeks. About that long, I think. [A pause while she checks.] ...Two weeks exactly.

Do you mean that, or are you being a jerk? More of a jerk?

I am and always have been in tip-top shape.

[Just before the video feed switches off, she raises an eyebrow and snorts.] Liar.

[Knock knock, Tony.]

I am not-- [FFFFF, why would you shut my gorgeous mug off?!]

[The door pops open. Tony is sneakily mixing her a drink in the kitchen.]

[She steps inside and closes the door, eying him like a cop looking at a suspect.] Whatever you're having, I'll take one.

[He turns around and lo and behold, there's already two martinis in his hand, each without ice and a twist of lemon peel. Oh yes. He holds one out to her.]

You ask, we deliver. [He makes his way with purpose over to his couch, takes a sip of the martini, sets it on the table, and plops down as he expels a sigh.]

[She salutes him with it, takes a deep drink from her own, and joins him, sitting on the edge and turned slightly his way. She leans forward, the glass between her hands, and gives him another visual raking-over.] So. Eight months. I'll give you the barge gossip if you tell me what kept you away so long.

[One of his eyebrows quirks in a quizzical fashion.] Is this going to degenerate into an 'I'll show you mine if you show me yours'? I'll have you know I'm much more subtle in that respect, and I'm highly offended at your cavenmanesque approach to this relationship.

Ugh. Grunt. [She takes another long drink, eyebrows raised. For a long beat after she finishes, she just looks at him, blue eyes neutral and intent.] You want me to show you mine? I can hold off, if that embarrassing skin condition of yours hasn't gone away.

[He's midway through another sip of his drink when she utters the phrase 'skin condition' and he almost chokes. After regaining his composure, he fixes her with a hard stare.] Backpedaling is going to get either of us exactly nowhere tonight, Murphster. [He folds his arms and regards her with a ghost of a smile playing at the corners of his lips.]

I'm not backpedaling. [She knocks back the rest of her drink and sets her glass down on the table, popping open the top button of her shirt. She leans back on the couch, casting one arm over its back.] I'm tired, I'm stuck here with a limited pool of men who are also stuck here, it's been a hell of an introductory month and I wouldn't mind a little exercise with someone who won't preen like the cat who ate the canary afterward. Or expect anything but more of the same from me later.

[Admiring Murphy's ability to down one of his martinis with ease, he tilts his head to the side, appraising her quizzically. He can't help but catch out of his peripheral the loose button -- even still, his eyes don't dart or stray from her face ( ... )

[Oh, she'll be feeling it in a little while. At the moment, though, she just feels amused.] Couldn't call yourself a real man if you didn't brag about how good you were afterwards, I guess.

[Murphy reaches over and finishes the job on his tie, sliding the knot down and hooking her fingers over his top button in the same motion. She drags her hand down, popping his buttons loose in a steady line. She eyes the reactor underneath his white tanktop, glancing up at his face.] I'm not going to stop asking.
