7/1; video
Are your eyeballs squishy again? How many fingers am I holding up?
[ He's not even holding up any fingers, the dick. ]
no subject
[ Though he is seriously happy to hear from Tony right now. ]
I'm fine. All back to normal. [ Which is obvious in the video feed, as there's no trace of glass on his face. ] You?
also pretend that said 8/1 im an idiot
[ He rolls his eyes. ]
In a shocking twist, I appear to still be alive. [ Which very possibly would not be the case if the arc reactor were still non-functional and made of shitty glass. ] Lucky break for both of us.
unacceptable!!! now time travel is game canon
[ All in good humor, really. ]
Yes, I've noticed that much. [ He sounds sarcastic and all but that's just his standard reaction to Tony. The truth is he is really happy to see him. ] Sounds like everyone on board got lucky on the glass front, at least from what I've seen so far. But we didn't go too long without other things going down anyway.
Where are you?
no subject
I'm thinking about conducting all my video calls in here from now on. It's very dramatic.
no subject
[ He's kidding Tony, don't actually do that. ]
I'll be there in a few.
no subject
[ He fires off a sarcastic salute before cutting the video feed. Whenever Bruce wanders that way, he'll find Tony standing in the center of the room, eyes fixed on the new glass fixtures like he's not really looking at them. ]

Knowing the ship like the back of his hand, it only takes Bruce a few minutes to make it to the mess hall. Well, what used to be the mess hall— right now it's just a wide empty room made entirely of colored glass. Beautiful, but ultimately pointless.
His voice echoes around the room when he speaks up. ] Nice to see you up and about again.
no subject
[ He pockets his hands, turning to face Bruce. ]
Congrats on the squishy eyeballs. And heart, presumably. [ He jerks his chin towards the stained glass. ] Love what the Ingress has done with the place.
[ Except he says it like "absolutely deplore what the Ingress has done with the place". ]
no subject
Everything back to being squishy, yes. Thanks. [ Looking around them. ] As far as residual damage goes, it's not so bad. At least it's pretty. [ And it hasn't affected the ship's systems, so. ]
Anyone caught you up on our little adventure at the slave outpost?
no subject
In very vague terms. [ He dutifully ignores any treacherous emotion that feels too much like guilt. ] I trust you were all fantastically heroic and all.
no subject
We were, uh... I guess everyone tried to help in what ways they could. [ He presses his lips thinly. ] I'm not sure leaving so many innocent people behind can be considered heroic, but... we didn't have much of a choice. I managed to get some out of there, at least.
no subject
[ Why is he asking when he really doesn't even wanna know the answer? It's a goddamn mystery. ]
no subject
I don't know. Hundreds, give or take. I don't have a specific number to give you.
no subject
Sounds like a great time. [ The sarcasm is practically a puddle on the floor. ] ... I'm glad you made it out.
[ That part, at least, is earnest. ]
no subject
The bigger picture in this case is a horrible one. And what can they do? Nothing, pretty much. ]
I'm glad we all did.
[ It's a very small comfort. It's selfish and self-centered too. The ship's fine, the crew's fine, let's just keep flying by as quietly and discreetly as possible and not call any attention to ourselves. It's all very brave and heroic. ]
