Two Geniuses Don't Make A Right.
Feb. 28th, 2013 12:58 pmAs sharing credit is something above and beyond what genius playboy philanthropist billionaires with drinking problems are not exactly known for, it really had been only a matter of time before out, proud and flashy and the cowl gives me laryngitis caused an explosion of the very literal sort. Tony Stark, for once trying to keep a low profile, had led his two man team of solo artists against a brick wall too many times for his not-quite partner to be entirely willing to happily go for it another time. In reality, Tony understands. He's fighting for something that most of his mind is currently convinced was a forced daydream of the best and worst kind. His heart, however, still refuses to let go of the happiness he'd felt while under the influence of that cruelty. There is no little girl with whispy golden hair and dark eyes he calls Princess. She doesn't exist. And though he's certain Loki is behind her disappearance (and likely her creation in the shared fugue with Thor), he's not managed to get anywhere in locating him.
He ought to blame that on himself. Trying to stay off of SHIELD's, and Thor's, radar has caused him to go to drastic lengths to hide himself. And it's limited his ability and his resources to find SHIELD's number one enemy. And Thor's brother.
Eventually, though, Bruce Wayne can't stand to have Tony work on yet another device that will do nothing at all but prove he's gone crazy and cause the New Yorker to fall into another wave of alcohol laced depression. He slaps down the bio readings he'd taken months ago of Tony and forces his never-friend to face what had happened to him.
Brain waves indicate that Tony had been under the influence of forced delta manipulation, something that likely had to do with whatever caused his often ignored bond with Thor to be possible and gave Loki or his minion and in to meddle with Tony's memories. Full body readings prove that Tony had not ever carried any foreign body other than the arc reactor and some shrapnel his body. No wonder the fight started. And no wonder Wayne Enterprises would be cleaning up the debris from Stark's 'disagreement' with her CEO.
Ignoring his usual careful need to shield himself from Thor's ability to locate him, Tony rolls himself into a dive bar. He tells numerous video taking smart phones recording his drinking binge to fuck off. And Bruce? Well, he's likely ready to throw a party to have the pain in the ass gone.
