Why Can't We Be Friends?

"See, I really appreciate this actually."  The scotch it good, the company is interesting and he's got a gun training on the back of his head.  It makes him smile because Tony Stark isn't always in his right mind.  Danger is a turn on.  It means he's not bored and likely not alone.  Both of these things are the utter bane of his existence.

He smiles at the shorter but equally impressively dressed man.  Irish.   Snarky.  He gets that it's pretty rare to get a meeting like this.

"The invitation, I mean."  By invitation, he really means kidnapping.  Oh well.  "But you know I can't do what you want.  Stark Industries is out of the weapon's biz."

Jim waited patiently for every bomb to detonate before he reached out and pressed a hand to Morans shoulder to calm him from jumping right into it. He knew what his companion wanted to do but sadly, he couldn't allow it. Tony was fun, he was smart and he reminded him a little of a lost enemy. If he wasn't on the side of the angels, he might of been interested in him but now, he was up to a little mystery here.

"Death is too easy but let's leave this all up to fate, yes? Shoot to hurt but not to kill. He'll either be saved from bleeding out or his friends will abandon him to save the day. Either way, they'll know we've been here and I won't know what happens till I check the news tomorrow."

This was all a little game to him and he was having fun, why end it? They knew he was a threat now.

Not that they didn't but a constant reminder was always good. He sat back and pulled out his phone, he had been hacking into Shield for the past hour and that file they had on him clearly need updating. And that was exactly what he was doing. When the men pulled up his file later, they'd see a full report on the kidnapping of Tony Stark, the explosions in New York and, of course, a little message from the man himself.

The eye patch doesn't suit you, Fury. Looks like a bad Bond villain. All my love to the council and please, no revenge acts? I'd hate to see something worse happen xxx

"I better at least get some fucking head out of this," Moran said as he lined up the shot and sent a bullet straight through Tony's shoulder.

Just as the craft turned, the sky opened up and the Thunderer raged down through the clouds, making Sebastian snort. No fair. Tony Stark, it seemed, was going to live after all.
