[It is Tony's birthday, and he is on the ground of his workshop surrounded with pizza boxes and empty bottles of juice and chlorophyll. It may seem lame, but better this than repeating the incidents of his last birthday.

Hey, at least he's not dying this time.

Dummy the robot wheels in from around the corner, angling this way and that to inspect the situation at hand.

Before he douses Tony with his built-in fire extinguisher.]

Thanks for the birthday present, pal.

[On top of his equally-awesome present of discovering that Pepper is gone.]

[ooc | Technically on hiatus, so tags will be slow(er than usual)!]

[Some of her birthdays in the City have been rough, but none of them like this. At least she just got too drunk; she didn't get a robot hosing her down.]

Looks pretty bad there. You okay?

[He rolls over enough to be able to see the display on his device.]

Oh yeah- never been better. Love it when the City decides to broadcast me at my most handsome.

I don't know there. The robot seems to think a little differently.

Peachy keen, kid.

[Not just a kid. A vigilante with a kill count. But fff she's not going to acknowledge that as long as she can avoid it.]

Liar.

[Also, she has a habit of calling people on their bull.]

You don't look it. You can probably build one kick-ass box fort from the pizza boxes. And duct tape.

[ Hi Tony she's outside your workshop with a giant box of donuts because she is an employee who cares. ]

Could someone let me in?

[Tony doesn't say anything, but JARVIS, being the considerate A.I. that he is, allows Ariadne inside.]

[boutant]

Thanks JARVIS. [ And Ariadne is going to go ahead and set those donut boxes down nearby on... something not covered in anything that looks important. ]

Are you going to shower that off or leave it?

[warmachine]

[ Guess who has the access code to the workshop and is coming in right now? Yep. ]

[ironmanic]

[And guess who is using a bunch of empty pizza boxes as a pillow? Your best friend, Rhodey!]

[orangetoughguy]

Corned beef hash grilled cheese sandwich.

[ironmanic]

That-- sounds delicious in an intriguing way.

[primrosella]

Mi--

[Um. This is super awkward.]

Er...mist--um.

[Okay well they were best friends like a week ago but that was a really weird period of three days and--oh, bother it all.]

--Tony, goodness, are you all right?

[ironmanic]

[Ah-- Rosella. Rosey. He offers a smile.]

Could be better, but at least I wasn't actually on fire.

[punchedhitler]

[Steve is showing up at your lab.

JARVIS let him in.]

[ironmanic]

[Tony takes a pizza box and covers his face with it.]

JARVIS, you traitor.

Okay, not cool buddy, not cool. Y'can't spend your birthday becoming one with cardboard.

Actually, it's my birthday, so I feel like I can do whatever I want.

[ There are two kinds of Stark parties, the kind where everything is a show and there's a large audience, and then there's this. He knows from personal experience that the former is far more fun. ]

It's your birthday?

[ Look, he tries to ask if he's okay, but this is what comes out instead. ]

[ Video ]

[ironmanic]

[he sits up and opens a pizza box, taking out a slice.]

Yup. Can't you tell by the festive decoration?

[ Video ]

[bettercallit]

Coulson and Natasha said your parties were wild, but if you don't slow down there someone's gonna get hurt.

[ironmanic]

...they gossip about me? Behind my back? That's rude.

To whom should I now report?

For now, Colonel Rhodes. He'll let you know what wings you'll be patrolling.
