Oh, you know, that a former supervillain is in possession of a highly questionable piece of mortal technology kind of puts a damper on things for everyone with a moral compass. I'm sure he'd have words I would rather not sit through, and I'm not entirely convinced that they wouldn't be boring words. Then I'd have to wiggle my way out of it and it'd turn into a "thing."

The more he's not focusing on it, the better.

[ he waves a hand in dismissal. the more he doesn't have to deal with the annoyance, the better. not that he wasn't sure that he couldn't, but he'd rather not face Tony and his army of "blah"s. ]
