[hottestofmesses]

1. You said you were jealous of my jeans because they "get to hug my ass nonstop". Which is a killer line, admittedly, just to steal my pants. But I want them back.

2. I am extremely sore. Which is my way of saying can we please have a repeat of last night?

3. Okay. If you were trying to make me jealous, mission accomplished.

4. You told everyone in the room "I'm hitting that" and kept pointing at me. And then you actually came over and hit me. So I don't think our cover is blown but let's just say people are suspicious.

5. Sorry. Iron Man stuff. I know it keeps getting in the way. Downside, killed our date. Upside, I'm in a quaint little mountain village in Europe. People are very grateful for the rescue last night. Could get you on a private jet and out here and make it up to you. ...is this working?

6. I've officially moved from "everything is probably fine, they're just having a good time" to "this is worrying". I need you to answer me and tell me you're okay.

7. I don't really know what I meant by "when's it my turn" but I'm sure it was pathetic so I'll just ask that we forget my moping last night and move on.

8. [Text him! Misfires, cross-canon, assumed CR all great! Prefs are in journal.]

For Christine (drpalmer)

I think the suit represents the colors that work for me best. Red and gold. But I think if I showed up in something like that it'd seem like we were trying to do some weird Christmas theme. That's the last headline I need. Fashion gossip.

[drpalmer]

would make for an interesting change from the usual gossip. Does it ever bother you? All the attention?

[hottestofmesses]

I was born into it, so I'm used to it. [He's used to having people and cameras follow him everywhere. It's been a lifelong affair. However. He did not actually answer her question. And instead of doing so moves on.]

No one's bothered you yet, right? About us? Except David Copperfield, anyway.

For Carol (comingtoendit)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

I get the distinct impression I'm still kind of in trouble. For something that really wasn't even my fault, I'll gently remind you.

But.
If it helps.
Top of the line currently is waiting in one of SI's private hangars. Let me know how she handles.

[comingtoendit]

Like I said, we'll see.

[ Mostly she just likes seeing him squirm a bit. ]

[hottestofmesses]

[He hates squirming.]

Okay.
But.
If there's something else I could do you can tell me.

For Bucky (counterstep)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

See. I knew you agreed. Consequences are for later.
Also no charge for this one. I pretend to be retired, but if I weren't this is the sort of thing that kind of falls into free-of-charge responsibilities rather than pay-per-save.
...that actually hits a little to close to the blunder-years.

[Oh you know. Making weapons for fun and profit so that America can go to war with countries that probably don't deserve it. Thanks dad. And also have them sold under the table to fund other wars thanks Obi.Those blunder years.]

For Darcy (stemtypeoflady)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

I don't think hate is the right word.
Also now I don't have to. We're kind of out. But if we weren't that's the sort of thing I think we should consider before we have sex in the room full of floor to ceiling windows. Not that a lot of people look up.

[stemtypeoflady]

Well, we'd start with the some dancing first before the sex. I still expect to be wooed.

[hottestofmesses]

Fair enough. Does that mean I should put on something formal? Make it a whole thing? Candles, champagne, low lighting?

For Dawn (dawn-is-breaking)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

Request received. I will make sure there is the coziest blanket and the juiciest bottle of red wine waiting for you.

thanks again for moving, you're awesome :)

[dawn_is_breaking]

Oooh the coziest blanket, now you're just spoiling me.
Will you be picking me up from the jet or am I taking a car to where you are?

no worries!

[hottestofmesses]

I'll meet you on the tarmac and take you into town.
In a car.
Unless you'd rather I pick you up in the suit.

For Lydia (notyetscreaming)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

Test subjects as in hostiles? Or...
Test subjects as in... we now have eight people to worry about?
I'm marked on your location. Going as fast as I can.

Re: For Lydia (notyetscreaming)

[not_yet_screaming]

People to worry about. One's a volunteer, hostile, and unconscious. And one's on fire. Seems fine but too hot for me to get close to. One of them says she has to stay inside or she gets struck by lightning. No idea if that's real.

[hottestofmesses]

It's hard to know. I assume there was no small amount of torture. That tends to do things to your brain. But let's just take it all at face value and work back from there. Not really sure how to get someone onto a quinjet without a brief interlude outside but. I'm sure we'll figure it out.

For Jacinda (cursedhyacinth)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

I appreciate the reminders. I'm looking to loosen up, not get wrecked. I still have work to do.

[cursedhyacinth]

And God help me if I pull you away from your work.

Speaking of, if you ever need an extra go-fer, I'm just a call away.

For Stephen (ineveryuniverse)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

While I appreciate it, I feel like this is you trying to teach me that good behavior heralds rewards.
I will have you know that many before you have tried and failed.

Re: For Stephen (ineveryuniverse)

[ineveryuniverse]

What? Fine wine and chocolates aren't enough anymore?

For Peter (starkinternship)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

Not a humble bone in your body, huh?

[starkinternship]

are you kidding?
how many people on the entire planet - possibly in the entire universe - can say they did something that made Tony Stark jealous?

this is like a red letter day or something - that's a thing right?

For Pepper (efficacy)

[hottestofmesses]

[From here]

[He needs to take a minute to look at his wall of tuxes he's only ever worn once probably to each shindig exactly like this one that he's ever been to. Then he takes another look at the pictures of her from the event. Gotta match. Obviously.]

Of course there are. You're you. Any slob there would be lucky to even get glanced at by you.
Me inluded.

[He has and always will maintain that Pepper is too good for him. Or anyone. But since she's with him, he counts himself extremely lucky. ...and yet still does things like this. Forgetting important things.]

[efficacy]

[ She smiles fondly at the text, warmed by the sentiment even as she politely declines one of those potential dance partners approaching her for a dance. She will forever counter that she's far from perfect, and that Tony really should stop putting her on a pedestal like he has a habit of doing. ]

See, that's the kind of stuff that gets you out of trouble. Just fyi.
