So what\u2019s the right way to be rubbed by your charm, Mr Stark?\u201d she snickered. \u201cAnd \u2026 you have a \/lot\/ of cars.\u201d She turned to him, turned back, turned to him, eyes wide, eyebrows up. \u201cHow can you even \/decide\/ what to drive?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He laughed openly. \u201cI\u2019m not sure, to be honest. I\u2019m not exactly on the\u00a0receiving\u00a0end of my charm. Oh, and most of these are project cars. I tinker with them when I\u2019ve got free time, or when I just don\u2019t want to work on other stuff and want to look busy. I usually stick to my Audis, the R8 in particular, for everyday driving,\u201d he said, holding up the key fob for that car, and pressed a button that made the key pop out of it like a switchblade.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI think I have to apologise, my car knowledge is patchy. I can do general styles, but getting down to specific models is beyond my recognition. Though \u2026 do you have the Spyder model?\u201d Summer\u2019s admiration was open right now, lightly brushing a hand over the bonnet of several of the vehicles.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cNot a problem. Most people I talk to are like that, but as long as they can see the beauty in the cars\u2026\u201d he trailed off, watching her do just that. \u201cThen they\u2019re alright by me. And yeah, I do.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Can we have the top down? Please?&#8221; She begged. Given that cue, it actually didn&#8217;t take her long to find the right vehicle, and she circled it a couple times, clicking fingernails against the finish. &#8220;So beautiful. You just surround yourself with beautiful things, don&#8217;t you? I think I&#8217;m jealous, I don&#8217;t fit here.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>theironaudi: iamthefirechild: theironaudi: iamthefirechild: theironaudi: He watched her work her hair up into the bun as he spoke. \u201cThe others are more accepting, but Romanoff and Barton are a little more difficult.
