I am Iron Man

Don’t you always? What is it this time?

Don't think I've forgotten about the fact that you waltzed into my company, forged my daughter's signature and proceeded to kidnap her. You try that again and you're dead. You hear me?

You’re losing your touch, Stark. I’m not even offended.

Let's cut to the chase, shall we? I have a bone to pick with you. 

Well, isn’t this a surprise.

Oh, you're still alive. How unfortunate.

Being wrong isn’t one of the many traits she possesses, but… Okay.

Not everyone can be right all of the time. Unless you're me. Then you can.

Aunt Herdis said you were more talkative than this.

Well Aunt Herdis was wrong.

Eh… Well, you look better in pictures.

Aunt Chloe told me I should say something like that.

Ah, I see. So it wasn't a genuine compliment.

Natasha Barton. And you are granddaddy, but you look young.

Alright, as long as I look young, I won't complain.

I. Don’t. Want. An. Autograph! Because oh my god, you’re my granddaddy! Well, not mine per se, but you’re still him! But oh my god, Aunt Herdis talked about you all the time. And so did everyone else and Uncle Ivan said you were awesome, and oh my god! I don’t even care about this outburst!

Whoa, okay. Granddaddy? Granddaddy makes me sound old. Who are you now? I mean, what's your name?

I am taking my time off. I go back on Thursday, that’s a long enough vacation.

More than I expected you to take. But good for you.

Well, that’s not surprising, mom is persuasive by nature. Things are going well, Claire and I have a board meeting next Thursday, just in time for the new year. But other than that, things are relatively simple.

You do plan on actually taking some time off for the holidays, don't you?

That’s okay, daddy, I don’t mind. What are you working on?

Top secret. Can't tell even my daughter.
