\u201cIt\u2019s a mutation. I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve worked with the X-Men before. In short, I was born this way.\u201d Summer gave a twisted smirk. \u201cThat\u2019s not all I can do.\u201d Lightly, she projected friendliness at him, then changed it to terror, then dropped the projection altogether in favour of calling a little flame into her cupped hands. \u201cStill curious?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cYeah. I did a little wor-\u201d Cut short, the strangest feeling of comfortable ease washed over him, only to be quickly replaced with inexplicable terror. It crawled icily down his spine, but disappeared soon after, as if it never happened. His eyes fell to her cupped hands where she held a small flame. \u201cThat\u2019s\u2026impressive,\u201d the scientist said simply. Tony\u2019s brown eyes studied her carefully. \u201cCurious? Why don\u2019t you tell me if I am?\u201d He arched an eyebrow with a cocky smirk.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cOh, sure, you are, but that does take all the fun out of it.\u201d Her smile nearly matched his. \u201cVery detached curiosity, that. Like I\u2019m a specimen. I don\u2019t think I like that.\u201d Summer\u2019s green eyes held more than a hint of challenge now. \u201cYou\u2019ve seen all my flashy tricks, Mr Stark. Anything else you\u2019d like to see?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A self-obsessed smirk tugged at the corner of the billionaire\u2019s mouth. \u201cWhat exactly are you implying?\u201d He stared at her with an equally as challenging gleam in his eyes.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Oh, anything you like. Ask me anything. I know you’re still curious.” Confidently, she stepped within arms’ reach. “Should I be challenging you to take a picture now, Mr Stark?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
