Well someone here has completely dropped the ball. I know there are at least a few people around who are rich and Earth-savvy enough to get everyone presents for the month. Maybe celebrate the break from so much cold or the coming of good fortune or something like that. We could use a celebration right about now.

At the very least, I'll try to do my part. [Tony gives the network a winning smile and holds up a small, strange-looking flower playfully. It almost makes the next part sound more like a joke than any real offer.] I've got a few too many of these, so if anyone would like to take them off my hands, I'll be happy to give you a discount.

And if you're available, Miss Frost, I'd love to spend some quality time with you. If your schedule will allow it, of course.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm personally missing my chocolate.

[He even winks at the feed before disconnecting.]

[...Or just to switch directions.]

Afternoon. I've got a proposal for you. Give me five minutes when you've got them.

[End Messages]

[Private message to Annabeth]

So. I've been saving up my pennies--so to speak. I wonder if I could buy some of your thoughts?

[End Message]

[Private message to Bucky Barnes (616)]

I. [Cap. Forgive him.] I need you to do me a favor.

I do have a pretty face...

[ She isn't boasting, either. She looks good, and she knows it. Still, she's been doing a good job of avoiding people so far, and she maintains control better when she isn't around them. ]

How do you know I'm not so pretty I won't take the whole thing with me?

That sounds promising. If you're that beautiful, then I won't mind sharing it all with you.

[He likes the confidence she has. If she knows she's that good looking, it just makes the exchange even better.]

Damn. Let me get changed and I'll be right over.

[ She's about to sign off when an important thought occurs to her. ]

Hey, when I've got, you know, clothes on, where am I going?

[He actually chuckles at that. Part of him knows that setting up a meeting with a mysterious voice over the consoles is probably not the best idea, but she sounds like a nice girl.]

ME-2B. You think you can find it?

Give me a couple minutes.

[ It's more than a couple minutes, of course, but it takes time to choose something nice to wear and put on makeup and do her hair. But half an hour later, there's a knock at Tony's door, and a familiar voice calling through it. ]

Is this where the hot guy with chocolate lives?

[Tony answers the door with a grin, looking appropriately pleased to see her. It's been a while since he's had attractive company pay him a visit like this and he is more than happy to play host.]

You're in luck. I think he happens to be in today.

[He steps back, inviting her into the apartment.]

You came all this way for chocolate? That's pretty dedicated.

I'm known for my dedication. [ She grins and steps inside, looking Tony up and down. ]

So does the hot guy have a name, Mr. Hot Guy?

You can call me Tony. It might be nice to have your name, too, before you hold me up for my chocolate. Not that I mind mysterious young women at my doorstep.

[He lets the door close as she comes in and practically poses in front of her. He's not a model, but since she's looking he can at least make an attempt to give her something worth looking at. She doesn't really need to try at all.]

Can I get you a drink? Sorry, I don't actually have much.
