God's Gonna Cut You Down.

Iron Man on a Johnny Cash mission. Rick Rubin produces.
XVid, 25MB.

shoiryu pointed me to this version of the song back in the day for Papa Winchester, but ever since that DOOMTHREAD-PRIME conversation about how post-movie Tony still sees the world as black and white, with-me-or-against-me in essentially the same way as he did at the beginning of the movie, though with the lines of good and bad redrawn a bit, this has been obsessively in my head as the song for post-Afghanistan Tony.

So yeah, a vid about Tony Stark's little proto-soul and, uh, not much more nuanced worldview. More than any of the other vids, it baaaadly needs recutting once the DVD is out, but OMG IT IS DONE NOW IT IS DONE.

I have three pages done! And the rest plotted out! And who needs sleep anyway when

OBIE BOUGHT TONY HIS FIRST BEER, HIS FIRST CIGAR, SHOWED HIM HOW TO WRAP HIS LIPS AGAINST THE CUBAN AND SUCK UNTIL THE EMBERS BURNED BRIGHT, AND THEN BLOW, LETTING THE SMOKE TRAPPED BETWEEN TONY'S LIPS AND THE WRAPPED TOBACCO OUT IN A CONTROLLED, STEADY STREAM.

TAUGHT TONY MANY THINGS THAT NIGHT, WHEN HOWARD WAS IN WASHINGTON SECURING FUNDING INSTEAD OF COMING TO TONY'S BIRTHDAY DINNER LIKE HE HAD PROMISED.

OBIE ALWAYS CLEANED UP HOWARD'S MESSES. IT WAS HIS JOB.

AND IN THE MORNING TONY CAN'T TELL IF HE REGRETS IT. THERE'S A BURN ON HIS BICEP AND BRUISES ON HIS BACK, HE HAS A HANGOVER AND HE SLEEPS UNTIL TEN. HE GETS UP AND GOES TO LUNCH WITH OBIE AND HIS MOTHER. THEY ALL TALK ABOUT WHAT A GREAT MAN HOWARD IS. MARIA FORGOT HIS BIRTHDAY. DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE. TONY KEEPS SHIFTING IN HIS SEAT. OBIE SLAPS HIM ON THE BACK WHERE HE KNOWS IT HURTS.

WRITE IT, BITCH. JESUS. JESUS.

*HAS FINALLY GOTTEN TO THE OBIE/TONY PORN IN HER FIC, IS GOING TO BE FUCKING DEAD AT WORK TOMORROW*, CANNOT STOP PORNING*

WHEN MARIA GETS UP TO LEAVE TONY NOTICES THE EYE SHE GIVES OBIE, REMEMBERS THE SAME SORT OF GLINT IN OBIE'S FROM THE MORNING, WHEN HE HAD DUG TONY'S TIE OUT FROM UNDER THE PILE THAT HAD BECOME HIS CLOTHES.

REMEMBERS HOW OBIE WRAPPED THE RED SLIP OF A THING AROUND HIS NECK, STANDING BEHIND TONY.

REMEMBERS THE FEEL OF OBIE AGAINST HIS BACK, HIS PALMS ON HIS SHOULDER, AND THE SANDPAPER TOUCH OF HIS BEARD ALONG HIS NECK WHERE HIS LIPS FOUND HIS EAR.

TONY RECOGNIZES THE SMILE IN HIS MOTHER, AND HE'S NOT SURE IF THE FEELING IN HIS GUT IS SHAME OR RESIGNATION.

HE BEGINS TO FEEL SORRY FOR HOWARD THEN, AND THEN HE STOPS.

IT'S SOMETHING HE GETS BETTER AT LATER, WHEN HE'S OLDER.
