[There is a sleepy-looking teenager in just his boxers on the screen right now and he is very confused.] Okay, I've had some bad hangovers before, but this one seriously takes the cake. It's not often I wake up in a strange tower with my name on it and some sweet-ass AI named after my butler built into it. And by not often, I mean never

[ . . . . This isn't happening.]

Tony, is that you? [Please say no and let this be a weird dream.]

[selfantagonized]

As far as I know, it's still fruit juice, sleep, exercise, and a shower. [Raising a brow.] Any of that sound familiar?

[ironprodigy]

Intimately familiar, but no more comforting. This sucks. Someone should be working on the ultimate hangover cure by now.

[selfantagonized]

You could start on it? You've got some time to learn.

[He's not sure if that would even work, once if this ever wears off...]

[ironprodigy]

Yeah, guess I don't have much else to do. [A pause, and then his eyes light up.] Heeey, if this is my building, it's gotta have a workshop in it somewhere, right? Or a lab?

[selfantagonized]

[Nod. He's not sure he likes that look, Tony.] It does.

JARVIS can direct you to it- or I could. I'm in the area, if you don't mind waiting.

[ironprodigy]

Would ya? I don't think JARVIS likes me very much.

[selfantagonized]

I wouldn't say it's that, but I'm already on my way. What floor are you on?

[ironprodigy]

Uh. Looks like the top floor. [He shuffles out of a hallway, the windows in the main living area coming into view.] Yeah, penthouse. Sweet.

[selfantagonized]

You think that's nice, wait until you find out what's in the tower.

[Bit of a reversal here, which is.. pretty darn weird. Still. A sometime later, lo and behold Dr. Banner getting out of the elevator at the penthouse.] Tony?

[ironprodigy]

Always knew I'd be living in style.

[He spends the time poking around at stuff while he waits. Luckily for Bruce he'd also taken the time to dig up a pair of pants and a t-shirt that fit him and put them on so he's not walking around in his underwear when Bruce arrives.] Yeah, s'up! I'm in the kitchen. [Where he'd discovered the most glorious coffee machine he'd ever seen and had set about making himself a cup.]

[selfantagonized]

[Good job on being considerate, Tony. Poking his head around corners and the like, he relaxes when he spots the younger stark, makes his way over.]

Having fun, there?

[ironprodigy]

Totally. You want some? [He points to the coffee machine. This is possibly the only time Tony will ever voluntarily offer someone else coffee.]

[selfantagonized]

Depends, do you make a good cup of coffee?

[Bruce realizes that, but he still has to make sure. Personal health and all.]

[ironprodigy]

I've been making coffee since I could build my own coffee maker. So yeah, pretty good.

[selfantagonized]

I wouldn't mind a cup, then. It's been awhile since I've had coffee, so this should be interesting.
