it makes no sense whatsoever for Tony's rresponse to being locked up with missle parts is to build a walking suit of plate armor with a side-arm firethrower action
Who was it that brought up the idea that he and Rhodey had doodled that suit thing back at MIT? And how can anyone begin to imagine what goes 'round in that man's head? (And a flamethrower could, conceivably, maybe take out more of the SI weapons cached there than simple missile launchers.)
I mean, really, would it be that hard to lace Tony's whiskey with some weapons-grade animal tranquilizers?
Okay. Crap. That's just scary.
The babyfic is already out there
Oh yeah. I've already read one (it didn't suck, actually) ... and found a reference to another (it sounded awful - but then, more power to people who write and post, y'know).
And as for Tony's fathering abilities, I think with the right set of circumstance, life choices, woman (the mother), etc, he'd probably be great. But it would take a lot to get him there. A lot of positive and a lot of negative. Which could make for some fascinating character study. (And fortunately since it would be in fic, no child would actually be harmed or maimed for life.) (But this? Is not one of my Fic Bunnies.)
