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?

[ Well, now if his second opinion thinks that he's toeing the line, that's his cue to back off. Which he does, lifting his hands in surrender and taking a few steps backward. ]

Okay. Point taken. That's not—I wouldn't do that kind of thing to him.

[goodluckkobra]

Yeah, I know, 'cause if you did, I'd knock your teeth in. Nothing personal, but Bruce is my friend and Lydia cares about him a lot, so I have his back.

[ He grins. It's not a threat and he doesn't want it to be taken as such. He's got Bruce's back and, psycho jealousy aside, he wants to have Tony's back, too. ]

But I don't think you'd hurt him, at least not on purpose. I think I might need a permission slip for further biting, though.

[manofiron]

[ On the one hand, he's glad that there are people here looking out for Bruce. He needs friends and people who don't see him as a threat. On the other, it rankles that anyone thinks he needs to be warned, like he's bad for him. And if that irritation has anything to do with a deep-seated fear that he is bad for Bruce, well, Tony sure as hell isn't going to acknowledge it. ]

Yeah. Noted.

[ The amusement value has gone out of this in a hurry, though, and he takes a few more steps away. Party's over, Tony's going home. ]

Try not to make a bunch of vampire minions, okay?

[goodluckkobra]

[ If Kobra's honest, he sees a little too much of himself in Tony to think that TOny is wholly good for Bruce, but that's more to do with his own self-image than anything about Tony or Bruce as people. All that really matters is that they're happy, though, and Bruce seems happy about Tony. ]

I promise to only give out orgasms and not fangs.

[ He tries to offer Tony a smile. ]

Be careful out there. There's a lot of poachers lookin' for a good disco ball.

[manofiron]

[ He nods, the corner of his mouth quirking in a humorless smile. ]

I'm pretty hard to kill. Even as a disco ball.

[ Lifting his hand, he gives Kobra a jaunty little wave and turns to head for the door. ]

See you in the funny papers.
