Peggy + Howard

Peggy
Howard, where the hell are you?

Howard
Ugh gimme a break pegs
Its the 21st century!
The women wear so little I barely have to take anything off!

Peggy
Bloody idiot
You know how dangerous it is for you to be out there
What if you run into yourself ?

Howard
C'mon Peggy
What are the odds

Peggy
Come home, now.

Howard
Jheez hold on a second
I spot an attractive redhead

Peggy
Howard
Howard!
Oh for gods sake

Howard
I'm on my way back now

Peggy
It's almost midnight what the hell have you been doing? We have business to attend to

Howard
Jesus Christ Pegs, where'd all your fun go?

Peggy
We're not here for fun, now get home

Howard
Whatever
Hey Pegs, do me a favour and search the name 'Tony Stark'

Peggy
Why?

Howard
Just do it

Peggy
Well it says here that he's an "American billionaire playboy, business magnate, and ingenious engineer"
Sounds a lot like you

Howard
Maybe we're related

Peggy
Oh wow

Howard
What?

Peggy
You're much closer than you think

Howard
What d'you mean?

Peggy
"Tony Stark, son of the late Howard and Maria Stark"
Oh Howard...

Howard
Oh
Well I guess I dont need to worry about running into myself then, right?

Peggy
Howard?
Its been over an hour, where are you?
I'm worried

Howard
Did you know they have jelly shots?

Peggy
Have you been drinking?

Howard
Not like it matters
I cant die twice can I?

Peggy
Where are you, I'll come pick you up

Howard
No need
I can make my own way back home

Howard began making his way home, stumbling on his feet as he exit the bar.

I shouldn't have had that much to drink he thought to himself, rubbing his eyes and taking a deep breath before adjusting his posture and walking ahead. The thought of his death couldn't escape his mind, he was intrigued to find out more yet he knew the risks and a change in the future was something he didn't want to feel responsible for.
