Good morning, Barge. [Hint: It's definitely not morning.] It is I, your absent leader Tony Stark, addressing you from the great beyond. [He takes a sip of his gin and tonic, swirls the ice in the glass, and sets it down. Looking squarely into the camera, he clasps his hands and leans forward just slightly

It's not morning, Mr. Stark. [Yeah, it's been that kind of week, Tony. You're the cherry on top of it.] And for your information, no you haven't missed any ports since the last one.

Bela's... [Wait, a minute now, she's actually. Not been around. Uh oh. Yeah, he's going to check her door now.]

...it certainly feels like morning. Long night at the pub. [His smile is a bit more strained now, but he still maintains his smugness until Banner doesn't finish his statement. Suddenly, everything seems more serious.]

...Bela's what, Bruce? You told me you'd take care of her.

I know what I said, all right! But in case you haven't realized it, you've been gone for a while, and things happened. She was put in Zero last I checked over some. Weird power surge thing and I was stuck trying to help Gabriel and.

[Jogging down the stairs now. Also yeah he's now feeling guilty for his minor breakdown with the last flood. Thanks Tony.]

[Tony waits patiently while Bruce jogs, but he's obviously getting a little red in the face from worry.]

...I'm sure she'll turn up.

[Aaaaaaand he's at her door now! Which is locked tight as a drum. Knock knock. 8(]

Bela? Bela? Look, if you're in there, this, ah. Really isn't the time to be antisocial so. ...Bela?

[Crap, now he's just. Freaking out a little bit and of course blaming himself for everything. Again. ALL IS RIGHT WITH THE WORLD.]

[He shrugs his shoulders with an exaggerated roll of his eyes and shuts the camera off. Of course, he's headed to zero to see if someone happened to forget about her.]

[spam?]

[gammapulsed]

[Yeah, guess where Bruce is going after another couple minutes of banging.]

[Tony is pacing between the cells, running his hand across his facial hair, expression livid. He hasn't noticed Bruce. When he does finally notice him, his expression melts into something stony and unreadable. He regards him silently for one hot second and then resumes pacing.]

[spam] late because i fail

[Bruce's breathing is slightly labored, more from worry than actual exertion, and it's a few seconds to check between the two rows of cells.

He catches Tony's expression before and after, and the traditional flare of irritation he gets at the sight of him and that stupid goatee flies out the window. He ends up leaning back against the bars, slowly sliding until he hits the floor.]

Damn it.
