Richard clutched the wooden box a little tighter in his pocket. The Scotsman felt like his entire life had been turned upside down in just a matter of a week. Ever since he laid his hands on this map Richard lost his job in the library and now he found himself being lead into a prison which probably held some of the worlds most cunning and dangerous criminals. Hamunaptra better be worth this, he thought to himself as he followed the two guards up another flight of stairs.

[ rogers ] That depends on whether you liked it or not.

[ rogers ] I could send you some more if you need a model for reference.

It was baffling to begin with, being in Stark Tower. Well...definitely confusing. There was a point to his presence in New York City, he had come back to see how what scraps remained of his family were and that...that clearly did not turn out well. And he had been there to take down the Hand, it was his purpose as the Iron Fist. Being in Stark Tower did absolutely nothing to help him with that. He wasn’t an Avenger and he certainly had no interest in becoming one.

Unfortunately, he was just one man and getting out of Stark Tower when Tony Stark wanted you to be there was just a bit difficult. So for now, he had decided he wouldn’t fight against it. At some point he would be allowed out again and then he would make it clear that he wanted nothing to do with them, that he had his own mission to fulfill and it was not as an Avenger.

There were some perks to being there, he discovered eventually. After he and Kara had been brought in, Stark had called the others back, even though they had had more than a few issues between them. And it was then that he spotted Captain America. Danny remembered having idolized the man when he was a little boy, hearing stories about how he had helped save the world during WWII and how he had sacrificed himself to keep all of them safe. Now, he was over his idol worship, but he did have to say that the other man was pretty handsome.

Which was something he was firmly reminding himself not to say out loud as he tried to approach Steve as coolly as possible, which likely wasn’t working out. Colleen had told him more than once that being cool was just not something he was capable of.

A deep frown formed on James’s face as Wanda spoke. Couldn’t she had played the good girl and simply ignored their first meeting? He had had no idea who she was, no clue that Steven had had such a beautiful sister, or else he may have been a little more cautious about how he spent his time.
