Hello, for those who do not know me my name is May Parker. I am curious, how many children and teenagers do we have here?

[ Oh, shit. Apparently he can. ]

[ He sucks in a breath and puffs up his cheeks before letting the breath go and then quickly rattling off the first three things he can think of. Can he think of three? Guess he's gonna find out. ]

Uh I'm good at chemistry. I'm nice and uh.. I have the best girlfriend?

Close enough.

[He almost smiled.]

You're getting away with that last one because I'm nice.

[ The urge to mouth off is so, so strong right now but he only just managed to get out of trouble. But it's just so easy... ]

Did I tell you I got a job?

[ Yup. Just abruptly change the subject, that's probably the best away to go. ]

No, where? Did you tell them they need to get more insurance?

Wow, rude.

No, I'm gonna be fixing computers. I'm good at that. I think. I mean, I did build my laptop from like... discarded laptops.

That's cool. Are you still going to use duct tape for everything?

Wow, are you just gonna riff on everything I say? I'm really proud of that laptop, thanks.

Also, since you mentioned insurance and all... so I'm sure you noticed they have cars here... and, well, I have a learner's permit-or I did back uh home...

Alright, alright. Yes, you did good with what you had. Better than like 99.something% of the population could've done.

[He raises his eyebrow again.]

Shouldn't that fall under May's jurisdiction?

She won't care. Besides, you don't know what I was gonna ask.

[Okay, let's humor the kid.]

Oh? And what oh-so-subtle-one are you going to ask?

[ Why does he get the feeling Tony is saying he's not subtle at all, he's perfectly subtle! ]

I was just wondering if maybe you might consider.. you know.. helping teach me how to drive?

....

Are you sure you want me to be the one to teach you?

Yes? I mean, you're supposed to be like a really good driver, right? Who better to teach me?

[Don't compliment him! This was already hard to resist as it is!]

Just a second ago you were saying I was too critical.

That has nothing to do with this. Please???

[The biggest eye roll ever!]

Fine. Gwen too or just you?

YES! [ Double fist pump! This is gonna be awesome. ]

Uh.. I dunno know, you'd have to ask her.

Why would I ask her? It's her favor.

Anyway, did you see how many days this festival is running?

Yeah, I volunteered to help out at the Batman one. Don't worry though, Iron Man's still my favorite super hero.

What? No, I mean, I want you and Gwen to take Alice to the festival and watch a movie with her.

Oh, sure. Definitely.

Anyways, I have to work until four tomorrow but after that, driving lessons???

Don't overdo the energy drinks before we go.

[ Thumbs up! ]

you got, Mr Stark!

Great, now I have to figure out how car sales work around here.

[He mutters 'damn kid' before hanging up on him.]
