May December in all the wrong ways.

[arrogantalloy]

WHO: Tony Stark and Bruce Banner
TONE: Confusion
RATING: PG
WHEN: December 19th
WHERE: Ravenclaw 6th year boys dorm
WHAT: Tony wakes up 47 cuddling up to a 16 year old Bruce.


Over Tony's 47 years, many interesting things have happened to him, from his family losing their lives in the war when we was a child to his entire time at Hogwarts, his rise to being a near house hold name after taking control of Stark industries, he was also a consultant to both American and British ministries of magic. He fought in the second wizarding war as well.

But the biggest things to happen in his life of late was finding Bruce after years of lost contact with him, and as of a few months ago, he managed to escape from a kidnapping by a rouge guerilla group after a weapons demonstration, where they kept him for three months trying to force him to build them his high-end weapons.

During this time he caught a small amount of shrapnel that would have killed him if not for an electromagnet put into his chest by a fellow captive. Which he then made his own as he does.


Right now however, Tony finds himself waking up cuddling into his lover. However there is something wrong about how it feels.

For one, there doesn't seem like there is enough hair on the others chest.

Blinking Tony opens his eyes and on noticing there's no grey in the hair he's staring at he sits up and looks down. his reactor casting a faint blue glow over the others back.

"Oh yeah. This is illegal."

Comments

[arrogantalloy]

Wow, no that's almost hurtful. I always thought I got better with age.

Hmm, now that's a loaded question. Not for a long while, no.

[greenmoonrising]

[Tilts head, glancing quickly at his left hand and seeing no ring.]

Lost interest or are you just finally in a proper relationship?

[arrogantalloy]

Yes.

[Not at all being unhelpful on purpose.]

[greenmoonrising]

Uh huh. [Unimpressed face.]

[arrogantalloy]

Well, both. If you want something little more accurate.

[greenmoonrising]

That's not really accurate, but fine. [Sighs and climbs out of bed, moving for his drawers to get clothes out.]

Any idea how long you're staying with us?

[arrogantalloy]

Yes, I go bored with being a hound dog. And someone did manage to. Let's go with 'tame' me. Now don't let your heart jump out your chest, I only have the one reactor here.

[He smirks, then shrugs a little.]

Now that, can't tell you. Few days? A month. Probably only a few days though, I think I'd remember losing more time than that. Probably.

[greenmoonrising]

She must be some lady. [Keeps eyes on dresser as he pulls out his shirt and trousers.]

I guess we'd better get some food into you then - do you still go for days without sleeping or eating? [Strips off shirt and tosses it aside.]

[arrogantalloy]

They really are something, alright.

[He lies back on the bed, not looking at Bruce as he changes, because yeah, that's just... Freud would have something to say for sure.]

Actually, I do both kind of regularly now. I've got my other, and Pepper to thank for that.

[greenmoonrising]

Your 'other'? Geez you turned romantic. [Mutters:] And obtuse.

[Steps out of pyjama pants before putting on school shirt, buttoning it up before getting his trousers on.]

[arrogantalloy]

No real other way to describe them. Well not without potentially screwing up my own timeline.

Unless you want to chance it and find out who it is?

[He gives the roof a smarmy looking, with intentions of having it bounce off and hit Bruce.]

[greenmoonrising]

Why should telling me about it potentially screw up your timeline? [Raises brow as he turns and slips his belt on.] Is it Natasha?

[arrogantalloy]

Because we never lost contact, so it can be an unfair advantage on you while we grow up, don't you think?

[He sits up and turns to look at Bruce, looking almost amused before brushing some hair from his hair, starting to think he's due for a hair cut.]

Me and Tasha? Well, there have been... No, she and I are many things, but lovers? No.

[greenmoonrising]

What 'advantage' would I have knowing who you- [Loooooooooooooong pause. Stares at Tony with disbelief.] You didn't- no.

[Shakes head and runs a hand over his face, rubbing his eyes lightly. One of the first advantages Bruce can think of in this situation would be that they somehow ended up dating later in life but Tony was Tony. There's no way he'd be interested in guys, especially Bruce.

Sighs and smiles a bit crookedly.]

So you're still keeping in touch with Nat then? That's good.

[arrogantalloy]

[Tony glances around as he's stared at. Knowing exactly where Bruce's mind has gone, but isn't planing on confirming it. Then rubs his chin before shaking his head.]

Didn't what? I'm talking about you trying to talk me out of doing thinks that put me in hospital a few times, but have really contributed to muggles or wizards over the years. Oh, and don't even think about telling me about what happens in Afghanistan, it needs to happen.

[He points an authoritative finger at Bruce. With out it he would have never redesigned his fathers reactor and got it to work properly]

Well, more we bump into each other when she gets ou- Yeah, we still keep in touch. Me and Sherlock stay friends too.

[greenmoonrising]

[Sighs and nods.] I doubt the current you would believe me if I said anything anyway. Do I have to be best man at your wedding? [Scoffing even though the thought of it hurts.]

... Natasha went to Azkaban!?

[arrogantalloy]

[Tony can't help but grin at the question.]

No, I can easily say you'll never have that great honour. I don't even think we've discussed getting to that point actually. Hmmm.

[Lets himself disappear to his own thoughts for a moment, before nodding a little at the exclamation.]

Yeah, other than getting herself some interesting talents and skills. She's still pretty much the prima ballerina we knew growing up.

[greenmoonrising]

[Looks hurt at that but quickly gets rid of the expression, getting his tie on.]

I'm not going to ask - not sure I want to know what these skills of hers' are.

[arrogantalloy]

[Clears his throat, when he see's the frown. Not at all comfortable that he has to be vague on purpose.]

Yeah she has an amazing talent for getting into trouble.

[greenmoonrising]

[Puts socks and shoes on and smiles wryly at that.] Of course.

[arrogantalloy]

Surprised you haven't asked about the others, actually.

[greenmoonrising]

I don't like skipping ahead to the end of the book. It keeps me out of the loop for bad news in relation to me. [Shrugs, running a hand through his hair and messing it up more.]

Breakfast?

[arrogantalloy]

Unless it's about who I'm married to?

[Raising of the mocking eyebrow . . . Complete.]

And as good as breakfast sounds. Not entirely sure I should be out around a bunch of kids with a glowing ring of destiny here. Maybe I should get Happy to get me a suit...

[greenmoonrising]

You're my closest friend, aren't I allowed to be curious about who you finally settle down with? Especially considering I'm not best man at your wedding...

Happy might freak out if you try to use him as you are now. We could try enlarging some of the younger you's clothes? You still like AC/DC right?

[arrogantalloy]

Because there hasn't been a wedding. And I honestly don't know if they'd want one, actually.

[Tony gives him an almost pitying look.]

You can't stop loving the classics, Bruce. And the shirts too thin for the reactor. I'll use one of my suits.

[He starts digging about in his trunk.]
