A few weeks had passed since his adoption, and the tension had finally dissipated to some extent.
Everyone was either on speaking terms to friend terms with Tony, all except for Steve.
He still didn't understand why or how this Tony seemed different, but not a wrong difference, just more honest.
But he didn't know how to talk with her without judging him for his actions.
Tony was cuddling Peter on the couch watching EverAfter, when Friday's frantic voice came over the intercom.
"Boss there's a ship landing on the roof, and I'm not sure if they are friendly".
Stephen and Loki ran out of the kitchen from making breakfast to see Tony putting on her nanosuit.
"Peter, stay here, Loki and Stephan keep an eye on him", she said, not knowing where the others were.
They all came flowing out from the elevator onto the common floor.
"Scratch that I need back up, Stephan you're with me, everyone else stay".
She adjusted her suit to look more manly, because neither Quinn or Tony liked how provocative it looked.
She got to the roof just as the doors to the spaceship opened.
She crossed her arms with Stephen having defence shields on his arms standing side by side.
And out walked, "Point Break? What are you doing with Flash Gordon?".
Thor and Quill froze right where they were, stopped by the red and gold glint that they had seen fall on the battlefield.
"Yay! You brought Blue Meanie and Ratchet!" she waved to Nebula and Rocket.
Thor broke out of his frozen state and slowly approached Tony.
"Stark?" He places a massive hand on her shoulder.
"Sort of Odinson," Stephen answered, "we better go inside and explain everything".
The crew followed the two into the living room.
Loki was no longer there, but Snowflake was.
Tony deactivated the suit and turned to face the group, and the only one who wasn't staring was a green woman.
Tony walked closer to her, "I take it you must be Miss Gamora, daughter of Thanos", she said, holding her hand out.
Gamora looks confused, takes her hand, "Yes...and how would you know me or the titan?".
Drax look at Gamora, "Gamora, this is Stark...", he said in a whisper.
She tilted her head, "No, Thanos spied on Stark, I would know what Stark looked like".
Tony shivered, "Well, that's not ominous at all, but not unexpected after I flew the nuke into that wormhole...", she muses.
"You can't be Stark anyway...Stark is dead..he killed Thanos and his army and saved the universe...don't dishonor him by claiming to be him..."Nebula said slowly.
Tony sighed, and activated the stones.
The reactions were immediate. Thor and Quill backed up in shock and possible PTSD from their previous experiences.
Nebula and Gamora stepped closer to watch in awe, Nebula's gaze flickered to Tony as she smiled.
Mantis stood in front of Tony, seeing something else.
