005 | Tony Stark | Video

[manofiron]

[ For a fleeting moment, Tony Stark’s face fills the screen. Those who know him might recognize his piercing eyes and his immaculately kept hair, perfectly trimmed and styled to look like the dashing figure of the celebrity he is back home. Maybe his skin’s a little paler than usual. And maybe some of its imperfections are gone. But it’s difficult to tell, because it only lasts for a moment.

Two luminous, glowing red orbs suddenly fill the screen as Tony pulls the communicator closer. His lips curve into a devilishly mischievous smirk, but hidden as it as by the limitations of the camera, no one can appreciate it. When he speaks, his voice is a low, throaty purr, edged with just a hint wickedness. ]

Cape Kore. I’ve got a question for you.

[ He moves his arm, pulling it back so more of his finely muscled torso and broad shoulders can be seen. In his skin-tight tank top, there’s plenty of pale, flawless skin to behold. Slowly, he stalks from the shadows of his home’s porch into the brilliant light of the morning.

And the sun, rising over the horizon, fans rays of light over his skin, setting it alight, sparking flashes of fire like a diamond. It’s as though the man is no man at all, but a being of light, angelic and perfect. ]

Do I dazzle you?


(A/N: omg this is my first time writing one of these!! plz be gentle. my poor babu is having a bad day. it will get better tho~ ^_^)

[Charlie doesn't look all that fabulous today. Her skin is paler than usual, features quite possibly more angular. And her eyes are a solid black. When she speaks, her teeth may or may not show as a little sharper than usual.]

What...the fuck am I looking at?

[There might also be the faintest of growl in her voice, too.]

[manofiron]

[ Uh oh. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the coffin today. Tony can't relate. His side is fabulous. ]

I think I'm made of diamonds.

[ His eyebrow lifts. Not that that's very visible in all of the sparkling. ]

What happened to you?

[charring]

[A shrug. And possibly an eyeroll but it's hard to tell.]

Dunno. Wish I did. I don't like feeling off. Or...cold.


[It's weird. She doesn't much care for it. And it's making her scowl just a bit.]

You look like a disco ball.

[audio]

[agentx13]

[ Yes. Yes, he does, and she doesn't have the patience for it right now. ]

Tony.

Seriously?

[manofiron]

[ He recognizes that tone! ]

Oh, come on. This isn't my fault.

[reluctantsword]

[Wallie looks like he's been laughing, and he has. A lot. He has no idea what's going on, and he'd been in a bit of a state about it a moment ago, but thank god for Tony, because he really needed that laugh.]

Impressive! Wish I'd come out of whatever's going on so... pretty.

[He tips the camera downward to show off his new pair of legs to match the small curling horns on his head. His legs are hairy and end in cloven hooves. Goat legs. Wallie brings the camera up again, and he's making a face.]

I have a little tail, too.

[manofiron]

Oh, I don't know. Hairy's in these days. It's the new sexy, didn't you hear?

[ Despite being a strange goat-man, Wallie looks like he's okay. He looks like he's been laughing, which really points to being okay. So Tony doesn't feel too bad about making light of the whole thing. ]

The tail's just the icing on the cake.

[hung_garian]

Woah, hold up, let me just find my shades. Haven't got an afterimage like that off a person since the glam rock movement.

[manofiron]

Bowie and Bret Michaels have got nothing on me right now.

( audio )

[rigging]

[ All Tony gets from Jesse is an audio post of a wolf whistle. A long and drawn out wolf whistle. Also, laughing. ]

[manofiron]

[ The whistle makes him laugh. ]

What can I say? I'm sexy and I know it.

[dowhatisays]

[Charlie is completely aware that Tony isn't real diamonds. For some reason he's got a sense for that, now. But his eyes can't help but be glued to all that sparkle.]

The fuck happened to you?

[manofiron]

Honestly? I have no idea. I was like this when I woke up.

Well, not the sparkles. That only happens when I walk into the sun.

[ Charles hums. ]

You wouldn't want to trade, would you? [ He's been avoiding wayward patches of sunlight in his house. When he speaks his teeth glint in his mouth. ] I think I'd find glittering like a diamond much more interesting than smoking each time a curtain twitches.

[ Besides, he could deal with diamond skin. It would remind him of Emma. Perversely stealing that from her would please him. ]

[manofiron]

You know, ordinarily I probably wouldn't mind. I'm kind of a nightowl. But there's not much in the way of nightlife here and I think I'd end up being really bored.

[ His voice takes on a conspiratorial whisper, like he's imparting some great secret. ]

That would be bad.

[preytosociety]

If I say no, does that rule out any and all future, late-night discussions of astrophysics and fine, tailored clothing? Because I will suffer the hideous pun for more of that. [Ooooh, even a smile from her! Someone's in a good mood now that Kobra is back.]

Please tell me that's not contagious.

[manofiron]

Really? Good, because there are definitely more of those in your future if you want them.

[ The smile is contagious, even if the vampirism isn't, and he grins back at her, an almost literal thousand-watt smile. ]

As far as I know, unless I bite you, you're safe from the sparkles.

( audio )

[gleans]

[ There's a little giggle, over here. ]

Your Stark is now diamonds. Nice -- that's a nice look for you.

[manofiron]

I'm the man the Old Spice man could be.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Yeah, you look just like New Years Eve.

If it helps any, I turned a little green, so I'm hoping this doesn't stay for long.

[manofiron]

I—What? What do you mean, green? Like, green green? Or sick? Are you sick?

[goodluckkobra]

You know it, baby. There's only one thing I gotta ask, though.

[ He grins and his canines might be just a little more pronounced than they'd been before. ]

Are you dazzling everywhere?

[manofiron]

[ Oh hey, look! Another vampire! And a flirty one, too.

Tony grins back, not realizing that he's about to respond positively to his arch-nemesis Hot Hands. ]

Oh yeah. Everything dazzles. How about you? You dazzling?

[enchangement]

[ Staring. Headtilting. Heatilting more. Is that a flower trying to blossom in her hair. ]

You worry me.

But yes.

[manofiron]

[ Is she sprouting flowers? It looks like she's sprouting flowers. ]

Worry you? Don't be worried. Why are you worried?
