UMMMM HI YOU GUYS THIS WAS TOTALLY MY REPLY THREAD. When I last looked last night. SHEEZ.
Um, anyway, I demand that every fic y'all have explicitly described or hinted at be written, and now. And add to it a moment about when Tony's doing his coming off the plane thing and the doors open and for a moment Pepper just sees him sitting there in the wheelchair, a freaking wheelchair, and she isn't sure she can handle it, but then, by God, he gets up and tuts his chin and he's going to be okay. He's going to be different.
And then all the Obi stuff.
Least of all how he's gotta be asking when Obediah decided to kill him. And whether Obediah had anything to do with that car crash.
I think I had, like, one line in Posthuman with Tony wondering if his father could have been involved in Obidiah's under the table deals, and that whole history freaking FASCINATES me. Partially because he'll never know, and therefore we get to play around with every possibility ever. Maybe Tony was groomed from the start to be the dimwitted face of Stark Industries, the guy who could say, with a straight face, USA USA USA, and keep the spotlight so that the real business could continue. Or maybe Obidiah cut the break line. Maybe Tony helped build the car they were driving in.
