3rd Floor Common Room - Friday Evening

It was Friday night, and Kate was hanging out in the Common Room. Even worse, she was spending her time reading blog posts about Fashion Week when she'd been there with her sister every year since she was 10. Last year she and Cassie had gone & cracked themselves up trying to choose which designs would be the best superhero costumes. This year's collections though - Kate wasn't sure she was actually missing much fashion-wise. She still felt a little like a loser for not being there.

She flipped over to her sister's Instagram feed and rolled her eyes. Really, Susan? That was what you were wearing?

Kate finally pushed away her laptop and turned the tv on. To the sounds of whatever was on, she wandered over to the kitchen to make popcorn. Ooh, or there was cookie dough. Hmm, to risk turning the oven on or just to eat it raw?

"...are you friends with Billy?" Kate asked. Because if not clearly they should be.

"Billy Kaplan?" Tony confirmed in case other Billy's had shown up. And were this nerdy.

Please, who needed last names. There was only one important Billy in Kate's world.

"Yeah, that one."

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, yeah then. Billy's cool."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
"That's a relief," she said with a smirk. "Suck for you guys to have missed each other with the 'nerd life' in common and all."

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Is he your big brother here?" OR SOMETHING.

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
Kate snorted. "Uh. No. God, no. He's a friend from home." Or A Billy was, but whatever.

Tony laughed awkwardly, looking down into his empty cup. "Wow, this is going to get awkward then."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
She raised an eyebrow. "Are you going to tell me you guys dated?"

Which - go Billy. The guy was hot.

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
"Flattering, but no." Hey, he took compliments easily. "My name's Tony. Tony Stark."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
...possibly she should have seen that coming.

Kate frowned, resisting an old urge to punch him in the face.

"You're right. You have the jawline for facial hair."

"Yeah, I've seen a few versions of an older me," Tony replied dryly. "Let me guess, I'm a real jerk."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
"My best friend really liked you," Kate offered. "But yeah, you're pretty much an asshole."

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah." Tony sighed, putting his cup down. "Believe me, I know."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
She frowned at him for another moment then twisted her lips.

"Okay, that has to suck."

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
"I tend to like it better when no one has heard of me," Tony replied agreeably. "Less problems."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
"I get that." Because yeah. "I'm Kate Bishop, by the way. Future - minor - problem. Sorry."

Not really, but she figured he got that.

"Alternate timeline," Tony replied. "Things are different where I'm from."

A beat.

"For one, Nick Fury isn't white."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
"Does he still only have one eye?" she checked. Because that was the important part.

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
"Would he really be Nick without it?"

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
"You have to figure he had two eyes at some point," Kate considered. "Did he only become Nick Fury once he lost it?"

What was her life that this was a conversation she was having?

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
"I like to think he sprung forth from the womb fully formed, eye patch and all," Tony replied. "Angry already in charge of SHIELD."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Kate burst into laughter. Curse you, tiny!Tony Stark!

"Maybe he's a demigod, sprung from the head of Zeus," she offered.

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
NERD LIFE.

"Not a very effective demigod then." SAID IRON MAN.

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-02-09 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
SHE WOULD NOT BE SUCKED INTO THEIR NERD LIFE.

"He's angry and in charge of SHIELD," Kate retorted. "What do you expect from him, thrown lightning?" No, because then he'd be Thor.
