[Did your non-American character think that because they weren't even on Earth they could get away from the obnoxious 4th of July posts? Think again!]







God bless President Cap. I hope you have a good 8 years. And happy Independence Day folks.

I didn't say it was nonsense, I just... You were pretty drunk. And you seemed upset at the time. I didn't know what it was, Tony.

[Look how seriously this man is taking you.]

[inebriety]

Sometimes my depression gets worse than normal. That's all there is to it. [Why is Steve being so weird about this!]

[livingsymbol]

[Forget President Cap. He's worried about Tony.]

You can talk to me, you know. I'll listen.

[inebriety]

[More confusion.]

You don't have to bribe me. If you wanted something just ask.

[livingsymbol]

Bribe you?

[Say what now?]

This isn't a bribe. I'm here for you.

[Tony has the awareness to know that saying people don't listen unless he pays them to is going to sound really pathetic.]

Steve isn't very fond of me, you don't have to be polite either. I already know.

[There's a pause while that one sinks in. It explains more of the man's behavior, why he might not act familiar with Steve and want to avoid him.]

I think that's sad.

[As usual, Steve responds with honesty.]

I won't say that Tony and I don't have our differences, because we do. We aren't always on the best terms. But I'm not just being polite and I don't hate him. Actually, I've been trying to change some of how things have been between us since we all got here. He's a decent man and a good friend who deserves the chance.

I don't know what you know, but I know I owe a lot of who I am today to Tony. His Avengers rescued me.

[And then he punched them, but these things just happen.]

[Tony is going to just hang up now. Don't rub it in his face that his life is terrible.]
