[ Curious. ] And who made the suit?

[action]

[punchedhitler]

[God, if only he could lie.

But he can't, so.]

Tony.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Tony?

[ The guy made out he knew nothing close to enough to make something like that. ]

What's with this guy?

[action]

[punchedhitler]

[Argh the pain of hiding this]

Maybe he was being modest.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Didn't seem like the kind'a fella who's modest.

[action]

[punchedhitler]

[Because he's not]

Who wouldn't be modest when they're talking to you?

[That was so forced it's ridiculous but Steve is hoping that Howard's ego dims his ridiculous genius for a minute]

[action]

[latenightfondue]

[ Something's going on, Howard's suspicious face shows he's onto you, Steve, because everyone is being so weird around him whenever Tony is mentioned. ]

M'I missing something, Cap?

[action]

[punchedhitler]

[Damn it]

If you were, do you think I would be the one to get it?

[Although Steve is way smarter than most people who just look at him give him credit for]

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Kind'a seems like everyone's in on whatever it is. [ He's just going to side-eye him forever. ]

[action]

[punchedhitler]

Crepe!

[Missy looks up from something dead she is sniffing and ambles back]

I guess I just think you two would like each other. He's a lot smarter than he lets on.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

[ He looks over at the dog, makes a face at the dead vole. ] Ew, sweetheart, get t'hell away from that thing. She usually sniff dead thing?

[ He didn't like the guy... ] Y'should'a seen the engine he was working on the day I met him. Kind'a figured out he ain't the idiot he wanted me to think. [ He doesn't get why everyone's being so sketchy, though. ] Guess I gotta speak to him again, huh?

[action]

[punchedhitler]

She's a dog. It's what they do.

[And a shrug]

Hey, listen, he just made my armor, that doesn't really mean much.

[Damn it why can't he just pass out?]

[action]

[latenightfondue]

It ain't hygienic.

[ But it doesn't stop him petting her when she comes back to them. ]

Never said it did, Cap, y'ain't in trouble. [ Shrug. ] Wouldn't mind having a word with him anyway. Heard he might be the guy to speak to 'bout a job.

[action]

[punchedhitler]

[Bless.]

You've never owned a dog, have you?

[action]

[latenightfondue]

[ Subtle, Steve, subtle. ]

Nah, never had much time for one, move where the work takes me.

[action]

[punchedhitler]

We never had one but there were always dogs around back home. They kind of smell everything. They also roll in everything.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Bet y'feed 'em when they came begging. [ It seems like something he would do. ] Y'ever need anyone to watch your girl, though? I'm your man.

[action]

[punchedhitler]

I didn't. I was allergic. But Bucky did.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Sometimes I forget y'were a little guy. Speaking'a which, how's everything going? Still in order?

[action]

[punchedhitler]

I haven't deflated or anything.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Figured that one, kid, but I gotta check occasionally. Guess you ain't seen much action here.

[action]

[punchedhitler]

I run.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

You're a braver man than me. [ Stuffing his hands in his pockets, casually watching the dog as they walk. ] So what'cha been up to?

[action]

[punchedhitler]

I'm still getting used to things here. I sketch a lot.

[His hands are behind his back]

A lot. Sometimes I'll do some heavy lifting for an extra bit of money.

[action]

[latenightfondue]

Y'doodling for money? [ Huffing a laugh. ] Ain't nothing wrong with putting that extra muscle to good use.
