There it was, the thing that took her aback for real, made her stay silent for a good long moment, running over everything he had just said again in her mind.

And suddenly she remembers the Zola’s tinny, accented voice in that bunker, ‘feeding crisis, reaping war, and when history did not cooperate, history was changed. Accidents will happen’. Jesus Christ, he had told them that Howard and Maria Stark’s death hadn’t been an accident. Not in accidents, but in pictures.

Somehow she had just never followed that thought to its logical conclusion.

Natasha took a deep, quiet breath and let it out slowly.

“I didn’t. Until now.”

“Bullshit.” ( the word is harsh, guttural, pulled up from his toes and spat out like a curse ) “Don’t lie to me, Natasha.”

[ his fingers tighten on the glass of scotch he’s holding, the ice making small little clinks as he shakes -- she’s got the nerve to lie to him, all but to his face, in light of everything and oh, why isn’t he even fucking surprised -- ]

“You’re telling me, Captain Oblivious knew but you? Oh you were in the dark about it all. The very best SHIELD could offer and you had no. idea. -- is that what you’re saying? Because you would’ve told me, right?” ( he swallowed thickly, ran his tongue over his bottom lip and not-so-silently seethed )

“Or would you pull a Rogers on me, hm? And still try to claim your precious moral high ground?”

“There are definitely worse ways,” [ she allows with a soft chuckle, and then sowly drains the rest of her coffee.

She’s been noticing the nervous ticks of his for quite some time, his addiction clearly surfacing in tiny hints. But Natasha refrains from letting her gaze drift to his fingers and instead gives a sort laugh. ]

“Not false modesty. Self preservation, after everything you’ve just told me. But since I’m not doing things by halves, I promise I’ll dress up anyway,” [ she adds with a small wink.

Natasha takes his phone when he passes it over, typing a number into the field on the contact page he opened for her. ] “Fancy,” [ is what she comments honestly, indicating the phone as she finishes. ] “I’m staying at a hotel for now though, so…”

[ Okay so this is going surprisingly well, and as distractions come and go she’s proving to be a decent one at that --

-- what was it with him and fucking red heads anyway? -- ]

“Oh see now- now I’m really looking forward to tonight.” ( passing over his phone, he glanced down at it in her hands ) “You think my phone is fancy? Okay, so we can cross off easily impressed; this is going swimmingly for me so far, should I be concerned about the other shoe dropping?”

( grimacing when she went to hand the phone back, he shook his head ) “I’m precious; don’t like to be handed things, nothing personal.” ( flashing her grin when she put it onto the table, he picked it up and briefly looked at what she’d typed in ) “That’s fine. I’ll text when we’re outside, just let me know where you’re staying and I’ll be there.”

Natasha doesn’t even stop herself from rolling her eyes since he can’t see her anyway. When she had taken this call, she had hoped that, with weeks having gone by, Tony would be a little more ready to actually talk now and not just to throw accusations back and forth, but if she’s honest, it doesn’t look like it.

“I do have exist somewhere, Tony, even if that disappoints you,” she replied, taking a sip of her coffee. “And it happens to be here right now. That’s all the ‘play’ there is.”

“You existing isn’t the problem here.” ( the words are sharp, sharper than he’d intended them to be, but fuck her if she thinks that’s why he’s got his panties in a twist ) “You potentially fucking up my bid to exonerate Team Cap is.”

[ And then, just because he was on the right side of sober, warmed from the inside out with good scotch, he threw her a curve ball. ]

“Just out of curiosity here, how long had you known about Steve’s bff being behind my parent’s murder.”

“Nice to meet you too, Tony,” [ she returns, that laugh still echoing in her tone. ] “I have to say this is not how I imagined my day to turn out.” [ Natasha brushes her hair away from her face in a small gesture before looking over at him again, her body language somewhere in that realm of flattered, awkward and excited all at once. ]

“Oh dear.” [ She huffs out a little laugh, playing with the little spoon that came with the coffee. ] “I could do without the head turning. But I’ll definitely take the safe haven.”

[ And again, he’s being the best kind of sport, offering the most desirable outcome for her on a silver platter. He seems genuinely happy about the whole thing too, and Natasha actually feels a little sorry for him that this isn’t real. ]

“Well…” [ she starts slowly, biting down on the edge of her lower lip for a moment before seeking his eyes again. ] “I didn’t have any plans tonight.”

“Hm, you and me both, sweetheart. You and me both. Can’t say I’m complaining though.”

[ Drumming his fingers against the side of his mug, he shook his head. ]

“False modesty? Oh you’ll have to grow out of that. Surely you’re used to heads turning, you’re quite the looker. No? Well that’s quite a shame. We can’t be having that. Here,” ( he says, taking his hands off his cup to fish his cell out of his pocket ) “you give me your number and I’ll text you so you have mine to send your address to. How’s that sound?”

[ Natasha laughs, light and amused, and she makes it just a little flattered as well. Stark’s a smooth talker if he wants to be, but at least for now he’s not ridiculous about it. So Natasha allows her eyes to linger on him, as if to contemplate, her lips pressing together lightly around a smile.

Eventually she raises her mug to her lips again to take another sip of her coffee, looking over at the bar for a long moment, as if she’s still looking for an answer. He waits, and she appreciates that. ]

“Alright,” [ Natasha finally answers and looks back at him, extending her hand over the table. ] “Natalie. I’m Natalie.”

[ Had he actually managed to find an attractive, normal person in New York of all places? Fucking Christ, what a good day to leave the Tower. ]

( Eyes crinkling with his smile at her laugh, he grasps her hand in his and shakes it. ) “Pleasure to meet you, Natalie. You already know who I am, but just for ceremony, I’m Tony.”

[ Tossing her a wink, he let go of her hand, leaning back in his seat a little. ]

“I don’t want to come across as desperate here, but when can I take you out? I can do with letting my hair down for a bit and turning up with you on my arm will have heads turning. They’ll be more interested in you than the comings and goings of SI and I’ll get to know you more - it’s a win win for me. And you?” ( he shrugged ) “Well, you get introduced to the only safe haven barring the church around here.”

Natasha suppresses a soft sigh at the tone of his voice. He was never good at hiding his emotions, and the bitterness is still there. Maybe not laced with as much anger as it was the last time we talked, but it’s still there.

“The one thing has exactly zero to do with each other. And you really just me being here means that there’s an elaborate plan going on you don’t know about?”

And wasn’t that always a problem? Tony thinking he wasn’t included on something or another.

[ Tilting his glass this way and that, he hummed, the tone of it decidedly unimpressed ]

“I can’t imagine why else you’d risk coming here if there wasn’t some plan.” ( the next mouthful of scotch burns when it goes down ) “Forgive me for wanting a heads up for the next mess I’ll need to clean up; we both know you’re not good at sticking around for that part of a job. So what’s the play here?”

Natasha didn’t stay to watch the show, but she knows that he did so his job. He and the kid.

She wonders if Peter regrets having gotten involved with this, now that he had his first taste of the downsides of being a superhero. Natasha hopes he’s okay. She was against Tony bringing him in ( yeah, alright, maybe that’s a sore spot for her, to throw them into the field young ) but he has proven incredibly capable and willing. So would have always stayed out of it, even if she hadn’t made decisions that led her to being a fugitive again.

A few hours later, she sits in a café, a spiced latte in front of her, when his call comes in. The way he picks up where they left off without a greeting almost makes her smile.

“What can I say. It’s a nice city,” she replies non-committingly, slowly circling her spoon along the rim of the cup.

“Oh yeah?” [ Tony quips back, pouring himself a drink because fuck you very much, he deserves it. ‘Do your job’ she’d said. Yeah, he’ll do his job. And Cap’s, and hers, and Barton’s... you know, he’ll do his job and everyone else’s too--

( -- enough, mouthful of whiskey, wash the feeling away; relax, deep breath -- )

-- but whatever, right? It was fine. ] “I can’t imagine you’d think it’s a nice city if Ross got hold of you. What’s your plan here, Romanoff?”

[ Natasha has to smile to herself a little at the way he talks about himself. All press-ready, a lot of words but in the end saying nothing at all. ]

“Hmm.” [ She leans forward slightly to lean her chin on her hand. ] “You’re making me curious about that story.” [ And she nods because, yes, obviously she knows that he’s always been here and, really, anyone navigating this minefield between the two families for as long as he has deserves respect for that.

Her eyebrows go up in what would be surprise at his offer, but it’s satisfaction that settles in her gut at the same time. This is working out swimmingly. ]

“Take me there?” [ Natasha’s lips quirk in a small smile and she considers him for a long moment. ] “What is this, Mr. Stark? Are you asking for a date?”

[ They’re both leaning forwards, fully immersing themselves in the conversation and he’s surprised to find himself actually enjoying it. ]

“Guess my plan is working then,” ( he lifts both brows at her, tone bemused ) “Why do you think I’ve not covered them up? They make me look roguish.”

[ He’d not covered them up because his hands had refused to stay steady. ]

“The more I put off telling you the story, the longer you’ll stay. They don’t call me a genius for kicks, you know.” ( Downing some coffee, he watches her expression as she considers his offer. ) “I believe I am. You know if you accept, you have to tell me your name - seems I’ve been rather amiss in my manners.”

“Do you have reason not to be?” [ Natasha repeats, drawing her eyebrows up at him. ] “You’re the one who has to tell me, I wouldn’t know. A face plastered all over magazines doesn’t change that. But your nose doesn’t look too happy, I’ve got to say,” [ she finishes with a tiny smile.

Natasha hums quietly and gives herself a moment to contemplatively run her index finger over the rim of her mug. ] “I suppose you know what you’re talking about.”

[ At the mention of the bar, she perks up in interest. ] “Neutral? As in, from the whole -” [ her hand makes a vague, unsure gesture, and then she smiles a little self-deprecatingly. ] “So what’s the name of it? In case I ever do want to go out without promising anyone my firstborn.”

“Absolutely none,” ( he says, shrugging easily, smile firmly in place ) “I’m nothing more or less than what people perceive me to be. As for my nose?” ( giving it an experimental poke, he winced at the flare of pain ) “That’s been a long time in coming and quite frankly, I deserved more. I got off easy.”

[ Briefly, his smile turned realer, holding his mug up and pausing to speak before taking a mouthful. ]

“Well I’d like to think so - I’ve lived here my whole life.” ( he even tossed in a cheeky little wink at the end there ) “Hm, neutral. Well. As neutral as any bar around here can be.”

[ He was still tapping his foot and it made the table wobble slightly but he couldn’t stop; he stopped tapping and his whole leg would start - he’d stop his leg, and his hands would start, he’d stop that and something else would be in constant motion. ]

“Why tell you the name when I could just take you there?”

[ He needed to get out of the tower, he needs to show his face even if cabin fever wasn’t clawing at the back of his throat - he had no intentions of doing anything but he didn’t know how things with Rhodey were gunna fall, what was gunna happen there and keeping himself hidden wasn’t going to do him any favors if the cops in Sinetha’s pockets decided to get rid of him. ]

There are very soft sounds in the background, indicative of the fact that he is, indeed, already in his suit and probably on his way. Natasha throws another glance towards the harbor, eyes narrowing as she squints at what’s happening in the far distance.

The ship is breaking apart, Christ -

So Natasha ignores his words - they don’t make her nervous anyway, no matter what else happened, she knows he’s not going to do that - and ducks into the next street away from the waterfront.

“Do your job, Tony,” she shoots back, tone a little sharper (though not at him, just because of the urgency of the situation). “We can chat later.”

[ He takes that as the dismissal it is, hanging up on her and skimming the water as he hurtles towards the ship; he can see Peter, stretched to breaking point, imagines how white his knuckles are as he holds on, and swoops in with his heart in his throat to help out.

God, he needs a drink.

It’s the pandemonium that takes the longest to resolve, scooping people out of the water before they froze to death, the ship now held together with webbing and more blood, sweat and tears than he wants to admit; he takes Peter back to the compound, can feel him shaking even through the armor, and spends the flight back chastising him as though he was his father --

( -- and god, isn’t that a terrifying thought, he wouldn’t wish that on the kid -- )

-- and it’s some hours later that he finally calls Nat back, skipping inductions and pleasantries.

“So. What’re you doing in New York. A bit of sightseeing?”

“So you’re happy?”

[ And this has quickly become unexpectedly deep, surprising even Natasha a little. The question is earnest, even if this has nothing to do with anything. But it’s not like she’s going to say no to a bit of a philosophical talk here or there, and this is giving her an unexpected insight behind the media facade of Tony Stark.

So she sure as hell isn’t going to turn that down.

Her gaze follows him as he folds the newspaper up tighter. The bluntness of his words come as a surprise as well, and she lets it play out on her face, her eyebrows going up, mild worry mixing into the expression. ]

“That bad, huh?”

[ She rubs her hand slowly over the back of her neck and lets her gaze linger on the newspaper again. ]

“Sure I’ve heard some… stories… Can’t say that I haven’t been a little curious though. Is it really that easy to walk into something like this without even noticing?”

“Don’t I look happy?” ( he counters easily, flashing his best smile at her; it’s all teeth, perfected throughout the years ) “I know you know who I am, my face has been plastered across enough magazines and TV spots, do I have any reason not to be?”

[ Humming, he busied himself with his coffee, warmth sinking into his hands, foot tapping against the floor, as he drank. ]

“I might be being a tad dramatic, but ultimately? Yeah, that bad. Before you know it, you’ve promised someone your first born and you’re utterly fucked.”

[ Running his tongue briefly over his bottom lip, he tilts his head, regarding her. ]

“There’s a neutral bar, only one I know of, bit of dive but a good place to get a drink knowing you’re not accidentally aligning yourself with the wrong people.”

He picks up up - good - and the switch in his voice from distantly casual to sharp and alert might have, under other circumstances, made her smile.

“Whatever it is,” she says without greeting, “you need to drop it right now and get to the harbor. Unless that is what you’re in the middle of.”

The thing is - they might not have talked since that last text message conversation and phone call that turned very ugly very fast. But she knows that this, the safety of people, isn’t something either of them will compromise on, so whatever hurt was in the past, Natasha trusts Tony to do nothing but what’s necessary right now.

Everything else can happen later, even if they go back to ignoring each other.

[ The HUD is lit up before him, repulsors activated with nothing but a flick of his eye and a finger twitch to engage the stabilisers; he’s airborne, shoulder’s that he hadn’t even known had tightened, loosening.

She’s fine. ]

“Maybe I am. Question is, how do you know about the habor, hm?”

( he banks a corner sharply, smiles behind his mask as a little girl squeals in awe )

“Unless you’ve come out of hiding. Tell me, you’re right at the shoreline, aren’t you? What’s stopping me-”

( he wouldn’t )

“-from leaving this to our Friendly Neighbourhood Spiderman to deal with, snatching you up and dropping you in front of Ross? It’ll certainly keep him from riding my ass for a day. It could do with a break.”

[ Natasha curls her hand under her chin and props her head up on it, her eyes resting curiously on him. ]

“Being rich isn’t, in itself, a guarantee for happiness, so I wouldn’t say it really counts. But I won’t argue that things could always get worse,” [ she allows, inclining her head a little.

Natasha raises her eyebrows and smiles in obvious delight. ] “Lucky me then,” [ she says, wrapping her hand back around the mug, ] “first hit a total success.” [ The coffee comes up for another sip, and she gives him a small wink over the rim of it.

A small shrug follows his next words, and it comes easy, as always, her having slipped into the skin of her cover before she even entered the café earlier. ]

“I’m not sure. Trying to see what the job situation is around these parts, but considering the things I’m hearing,” [ she nods at the newspaper lying to her left, ] “I’m not convinced this is the place to be right now.”

[ She really is quite pretty and absolutely his type - maybe she would be a good distraction whilst he kept his nose clean. He could do with it, to be honest; being left to his own thoughts and his own company? Yeah. No. He’s had enough of that for the last few days. ]

“Money can buy happiness, or something very close it, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. They’re lying.”

( he cocks a brow; gives her a look )

“You’re thinking about staying? Have you heard much about New York, besides that charming little story?”

( he nods his head at the newspaper, before he’s reaching over and folding it so he doesn’t have to see a week old story that they’re still shoving in his face. )

“You go into the wrong bar and you’ll end up associating yourself with people you had no intention of associating with and wind up pissing someone else off and wind up dead. If I were you,”

( he added, his smile small but real )

“I’d just leave whilst you have the chance. Best bit of advice you’ll receive. Trust me.”

famous first lines of poetry pt. 1: bold the ones that apply to your muse.

REPOST. DON’T REBLOG.

i saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked // tyger tyger, burning bright // i have done it again. // do not go gentle into that good night // the sea is calm to-night. // let us go then, you and i, // april is the cruelest month, // pretty women wonder where my secret lies. // there is a place where the sidewalk ends // i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart) // two roads diverged in a yellow wood, //whose woods these are i think i know // let us twain walk aside from the rest; // once upon a midnight dreary, while i pondered, weak and weary, // i taught myself to live simply and wisely // it so happens i am sick of being a man // i wandered lonely as a cloud // does it dry up like a raisin in the sun? // o my luve is like a red, red rose // o captain! my captain! ~~our fearful trip is done~~ // out of the night that covers me // it was many and many a year ago, // you may write me down in history // do not stand at my grave and weep // some say the world will end in fire / some say in ice // hope is the thing with feathers // the wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees // no man is an island // remember me when i am gone away, // i met a traveler from an antique land // ‘twas brillig, and the slithy toves // this is thy hour o soul, // when we wear the mask that grins and lies // death be not proud, // and death shall have no dominion. // laugh, and the world laughs with you; // the art of losing isn’t hard to master; // to see a world in a grain of sand // is there anybody there? said the traveller // nobody heard him, the dead man, // that crazed girl improving her music. // come to me in the silence of the night // where the mind is without fear and the head is held high // when you are old and grey and full of sleep, // in flanders’ fields the poppies blow // i thought of you and how you love this beauty // life, believe, is not a dream // it may be misery not to sing at all, // if tarry space no limit knows // come live with me and be my love, // had we but world enough and time // my heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains my sense // bright star, would i were stedfast as thou art— // thou still unravish’d bride of quietness // how do I love thee? let me count the ways. // heaven is what i cannot reach // my dear, my dear, i know // in visions of the dark night // shall i compare thee to a summer’s day? // break, break, break // she walks in beauty // i had a dream, which was not at all a dream // he clasps the ring with crooked hands.
