* MADE OF IRON.

    first off ,  i  hope  everyone’s  doing  well !!  i’ve  missed  being  here ,  honestly :’-(   regardless ,  i’m  gonna  be  moving  everything  into  a  multimuse  blog .    i  currently  have  4  blogs  up ,  and  i  love  everyone  one  of  those  muses .   if  i  plan  to  continue  bein  able  to  rp  more  than  just  one  muse ,  i  gotta  move  to  a  mumu .  now ,  in  all  honesty ,  i  don’t  know  how  long  it’s  gonna  take  me  to  get  set  up  at  a  new  blog ,  especially  since  life  got  busy  for  me  so  fast ,  but  i’ll  be  looking  into  it  asap !

     as  to  why  i  haven’t  been  here .     stuff’s  been  rough .   when  i  went  on  my  hiatus ,  i didn’t  expect  to  be  gone  all  that  long ,  just  until  i got  into  the  flow  of  school  and  a  blog .    but ....   stuff  didn’t  work  out  that  way ,  obviously .     school  has  given  me  a  whole  lot  more  trouble  than  i  anticipated .     so ,  that  held  me  back  quite  often .    to worsen it ,  my  dog  of  nine  years  passed  away  on  the  29th  of  december ,  and  that  has  affected  me  quite  a  bit .    while  things  settle  down  and  i  make  an  attempt  to  find  some  type  of  flow  that  works  for  me ,  i’m  still  gonna  be  on  hiatus .   however ,  i  will  be  back !

Tony lowers his repulsor and Coralus feels the tension in his form release. Why? Why was Tony letting down all of his defenses? Was he not prepared to fight to the death? Was he not the same man they fought on TITAN? Fingers quiver as Tony steps from his suit, out into the open with no armor but the skin covering brittle bones ; marrow that can break with a simple hit from his powerful sibling.

“You’re lying,” he whispers, his voice lacking conviction. Tony Stark had taken him into his home, let him meet that daughter of his, and showed him what a life of freedom could possibly be like. More like a babysitter, but Tony has shown him good graces. “I… I know.”

Blue sparks fizzle to small pops, soon settling down to a mere thought. Hand slowly lowers as Tony’s words register and the history they share somehow resurfaces within his memory. The feelings that he doesn’t understand, but knows the warmth of their comfort. “Tony, I’m s-!”

Cry of pain cuts across his reluctance, hands curling as power sparks from fingertips unwillingly, shooting out galactic strands in all directions, tendrils of power concave the ground around him. Space is in the hands of another, and against his will, he lifts his hands, preparing to pull from the atmosphere above.

       TRUTHFULLY , TONY HADN’T BEEN TOTALLY CONVINCED CORALUS WOULD BE WON OVER .     with  one  gesture ,  the  suit  would  automatically  form  over  him  once  more .    he  was  pretty  questionable ,  but  he  wasn’t  stupid .   though ,  his  guard  was  lessening  with  the  obvious  tension  leaving  the  both  of  them .     then ,  the  inevitable  happened .   everything  seemed  to  occur  in  an  instant ,  the  suit  wrapping  around  his  frame ,  the  uncontrollable  power  from  coralus ,  the  attempt  to  keep  from  being  hit . 

       the  good  news  :  coralus  wasn’t  trying  to  kill  him  anymore .   the  bad  news  :  that  didn’t  matter  .   he  didn’t  know  why  this  guy  was  so  adamant  on  killing  him ,  but  he  supposed  that’s  how  it  went  almost  always .

    then  @hamadaxfighter​  saw  something  i  missed . . .

      and ,  of  course ,  @sensesdialed​  and  i  took  it  and  ran ;

❛   WHEN  HE  WASN’T  TALKING  ABOUT  FONDUING  ,      yeah.       pretty  funny  guy.    ❜              a  dramatic  sigh  leaves  the  captains  lips  before  he  slouches  forward  in  his  seat.         an  AMUSED  GLINT  to  his  crystal  blue  gaze.           ❛    wonder  what  he’d  think  of  me  flirting  with  his  kid  ‘stead  of  him.    ❜         he  snorts  a  bit  &  shakes  his  head.          

       TONY CAN’T HOLD BACK A LAUGH .    ❛     fonduing ?   really ?   that’s  what  he  was  into  ?      ❜    it’s  hard  to  imagine  howard  stark  being  passionate  about  anything  not  company  related .   at  least ,  the  one  that  he  knew .

❝ I STRUGGLE TO IMAGINE THE LIFE OF Tony Stark being anything short of extraordinary. ❞ Alas, can his life be peaceful? Must war always follow at his heels? It is a sorrowful existence to witness one war bleed into another, then for the proceeding conflict to conceive a million more ominous outcomes. 

Yet, it is that very existence they find themselves enduring. 

Diana removes the tiara from her head, its edges darkened by blood that will not wash away. A reminder that even beauty can be stained with the choices a warrior must make. ❝ For what it is worth, I believe you deserve a softer tomorrow. ❞

         THAT WAS A FIRST .     ❛      i  think  that’s  the  first  time  i’ve  ever  heard  someone  call  my  life  extraordinary ,    ❜   tony  assesses  with  the  raise  of  his  brows .     unfortunate ?  yeah .   insane ?  definitely .    anything  with  a  positive  connotation ?   well .    a  smile  is  given ,  though  ;  the  optimism  is  appreciated ,  to  the  say  the  least .     his  eyes  flick  to  the  tiara ,  though  no  comment  is  made .

          ❝   It might not have been me, but it was my body. It might not have been me, but I remember all of it,    ❞   she says. There is no emotion to her voice, no inflection. No, it’s merely stated as fact as she returns with two glasses of wine. Part of her wants to joke: of course, it’s good wine! But she can’t bring herself to. She’s starting to feel dead inside.            She pours herself a hefty glass of the wine, sipping on it briefly. It’s a long pause before she can finally think of what to say.   ❝   I remember hurting people. I remember what he made me do. I can’t even look Thor in the eyes right now. — I was almost relieved when I heard he went back to Asgard for the time being. I know he doesn’t blame me either. But none of that matters when you blame yourself. There’s no reassurance that can fix that… Enough about me. How are you feeling? You almost died.    ❞   

     TONY HAD NEVER BEEN CONTROLLED BEFORE .   at  least ,  not  in  this  sense .    but  he  understands  the  guilt  of ,  i  did  this  and  i  deserve  to  be  shunned  for  it .    it  had  been  the  reason  he  shut  down  his  weapon  branch  after  he  returned  from  afghanistan .    it  fucking  sucks .   that ,  he  can  say  with  confidence .      ❛       can’t  lie  to  you ,  jane .   it  was  your  body .    you  hurt  people ,  you  helped  the  enemy .    ❜    tony  licks  at  his  teeth ,  pours  his  glass ,  then  sips  at  the  alcohol .      ❛      but  you  gotta  give  yourself  a  break .     i  don’t  know what being  mind  controlled  is  like ,  so  i  can’t  help  you  there .   but  you  gotta  come  to  terms  with  the  fact  no  one  blames  you .     ❜
