[So after this, in which Tony's suit went crazy and tried to kill Bucky, and Bucky went crazy and tried to kill Tony, this guy here is pretty beat up. Bandages all over from knife wounds, bruises, he's just a mess. There's a particularly nasty bruise around his neck, because a certain cyborg assassin keeps trying to strangle him. However, his snark is (perhaps unfortunately) still entirely intact.]
Anybody ever tells you fighting a guy with a metal arm is fun, they're lying to you. Just saying. There's your PSA for the day, or ah. Whatever.
[His head tilts slightly, eyebrows scrunching into a more indignant glare. He starts to cross his arms, but winces when the movement hurts his ribs. He chooses to rest them on his desk instead.]
Anyway, speaking of weird shit, which one of you dicks broke my suit? It was fine, and now it's gone all dumbass-Skynet on me. Personally, my vote's on our oh-so-helpful scientist-hosts. They're catastrophically stupid enough to mess with my stuff. Where's that lady with a stick up her ass? Maybe it was her.

But what sort of suit are you talking about? Er, and define 'dumbass-Skynet' just so I have a base of reference to think about the situation from.

It's a, ah--well, it was an Autonomous Prehensile Propulsion Suit. High-tech prosthesis. Basically, fancy armor. I built it. This particular model... isn't the most reliable. It's, well, autonomous, the AI system got a bug, and it attacked somebody. Turns out, he doesn't like being attacked. [He gestures vaguely at himself, indicating his injuries] Apparently thought it was me.

( A grin and a friendly wave before her expression turns excited. )
So you're inside the suit rather than controlling it remotely? But you built it! I'd love to take a look at it, even if it's just to look and not touch.
( She might not be able to help herself, however. )

Little of both, inside and remote. I like to have options. There's nothing like flying, but it's nice to be in two places at once, so to speak. As for my handiwork...
[he leans out of frame and pulls back with a slightly mangled metal object that may have been a gauntlet yesterday.] Compliments of Mr. Barnes and whoever the hell broke the damn thing's AI. Still want a look? Pretty sure you don't have a use for a robotic exoskeleton, so I'll let you look and touch. Don't tell the other kids, though, they might get jealous.

( She's peering at the part of the suit he's brought up, but the light in her eyes brightens. )
They won't get a word out of me!
( Unless she babbles at them about it. Which-- could happen. )
