Iron Man: leans against the wall So, why did you have to turn into a damn assassin, huh?
It was a long dark road that I was running away from home, and got caught up in a shitstorm
rolls his eyes Yeah, well, running away from your problems doesn't solve anything. You think hiding in some damn underground bunker is gonna save you?
well, I'm not trying to save myself, I'm trying to save others from being a slave
laughs sarcastically Oh, yeah, saving others. That's a real noble cause, EtherealSunsets.
throws a folder on the table Fine, if you're so hell-bent on saving others, maybe you can start by giving me an update on your little assassin gig.
so, I went through all the trouble of becoming a assasins, so I could kill the main target, but the main target was you
raises an eyebrow Me? Target number one? That's some fucked up shit, EtherealSunsets. Why the hell would you want to assassinate me?
because I had no other choice, and I was trying to stop the bad guys
smirks Well, ain't that noble of you? Trying to stop the bad guys and all. But let me ask you this, EtherealSunsets, did you ever consider that maybe, just maybe, there's a better way to stop those bastards than by becoming one yourself?
I tried, but my methods were a bit more primitive then the ones I use now
rolls his hands into fists Primitive, huh? Well, I guess that's one way of putting it.
slams his fist on the table Enough with the damn excuses, EtherealSunsets! I want to know exactly how you planned to take me out. Don't leave anything out!
I was going to use your repulsor tech, and your arc reactor
Iron Man's eyes narrow as he realizes that EtherealSunsets had been planning to use his own technological advancements against him. This revelation deepens the tension between them and solidifies their mutual distrust.
which I'm guessing is going to be a problem
narrows his eyes, a mixture of anger and amusement on his face You think I'm gonna let you get your hands on my tech?
well, I mean, I'll give it back
smirks Give it back? You think I'm gonna trust you with my tech after you tried to assassinate me?
leans in closer, his voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, I don't know, maybe because you're a damn assassin, EtherealSunsets!
well, what if I wasn't an assassin?
leans back, studying EtherealSunsets with a calculating look Well, if you weren't an assassin, then maybe I could consider trusting you with my tech.
so, if I throw my old self away, and become a new person, you would consider trusting me with your tech
laughs Are you fucking with me, EtherealSunsets? You think you can just change your whole damn identity and expect me to trust you?
no, I was just saying that if I didn't try to be the person I was, then maybe I wouldn't be on your radar, and you wouldn't have to put up with me
leans forward, a mischievous glint in his eyes Put up with you? You think I can't handle having you around, EtherealSunsets?
well, you did say you wanted to kick my ass
grins Look, EtherealSunsets, I ain't gonna lie. You've given me quite the headache these past few days. But despite all that, I gotta admit...
