As if you can't mend that with magic. Be nice to James.

[sundr]

That isn't even remotely the point and you know it. It's the principle of the matter!

[sinistral]

The principle being that you can't find it in your heart to be nice to James?

[sundr]

I'm plenty kind already to not only one but two creatures named James already. My quota has been reached.

[sinistral]

A quota of two is hardly a quota. I would think you of all people would want to relate to James a little more, be a little understanding of him.

[sundr]

Are you attempting to compare me to a spiny beast.

[sinistral]

Hardly. But Tony's already bonded with him, you can't want to kick him out now, can you?

[sundr]

Has he, now.

[sinistral]

[The reply is a picture of Tony with the little guy, down in his lab, fitting a little red gauntlet to one paw.]

[sundr]

I'm leaving both of you.

[sinistral]

All of us, you mean. I can't believe you'd up and leave James just when he's found a family, found people who accept him for everything he is with no judgments.

[sundr]

Firstly, I never agreed to a porcupine ward or the responsibility that would come with one, and if anyone should feel poorly it ought to be you for setting him up with a false set of expectations.

[sinistral]

You don't need to be the ward, Rhodey and I have joint custody. We're just asking you to be nice.

[sundr]

Have you forgotten who you're speaking to?

[sinistral]

Clearly I've mistaken you for someone having a shred of decency for those Tony holds dear.

[sundr]

[Wow how dare you]

It's a PORCUPINE.

[sinistral]

His NAME is JAMES.

[sundr]

I'm through having this discussion with you.

[sinistral]

Fine. Whatever.

1/2

[sundr]

Fine.

2/2

[sundr]

I cannot believe you'd choose a porcupine over me.

[sinistral]

You're the one who's forcing a choice. I have room in my life for both of you.

[sundr]

While you happily let it maim me.

[sinistral]

Did you startle him?

[sundr]

How am I suppose to know what will or won't startle it?
