\u201cMy \/preference\/ is for bare feet, but that\u2019s just not feasible in New York, really.\u201d Socks! It was cute, a thing she hadn\u2019t expected of Tony Stark. Summer followed him out of the elevator and paused at the expanse of window before her. She barely even noticed Tony taking off his shoes, drifting toward the glass.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt looks so different from the inside,\u201d she murmured, fingertips lightly against the pane. \u201cNo wonder I could hear your panic when you fell. It\u2019s amazing you survived.\u201d She turned, slowly, gazing up and around, noting the narrow window-slits, the ramp, the bar. \u201cI love the openness of it,\u201d Summer commented, after a long silent moment.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony gave a shrug. \u201cI don\u2019t go out much anymore.\u201d He didn\u2019t need to, really. Everything he wanted was in here. Well, shawarma had to be ordered from the outside, but he was fine with that. \u201cHuh?\u201d He questioned, turning to look at her before noticing where she was. Frowning at the memory, he hopped off a few steps before coming down to the lower part of the penthouse and stood next to her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had my suit. And the bracelets.\u201d He assured her after a moment. Tony was lucky he had thought of those before he came to New York. Now, he always kept them in his pockets so he didn\u2019t have to run to his bar every time he needed them. \u201cI do too. It\u2019s why I designed it this way.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“I know you did. Well, I know now. All I knew then was that I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to catch you. Too much distance to cover, too many other people \u00a0who might be sacrificed if I tried.” Her voice was low, distant. Those memories hurt; she hadn’t been able to save everyone. The count of the living …\u00a0<\/p>\n

But here was one of the living, and the ripples from him were enormous, and affected far more than her. She shook her head, shaking off the thoughts. A smile curled at her mouth when she noticed the sock feet. Why did his humanity make her like him even more? “Going to do the rest without shoes?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
