Who knows

[It was still the same day after the initial meeting, after all. It would take a few days.]

Why would he though if he seemed so put out at the idea of being asked in the first place

[doubled_speed]

Because that's how he is. Like, he wasn't put out by it probably. He just pokes at people.

[tempredmental]

[Keith glared at the answer, not liking it. Tony was one of those types. Keith sighed.]

Right. Figures.

[doubled_speed]

[But people like them sometimes need people like that.]

He cares. Sometimes he cares too much. That's his way of pushing back.

[tempredmental]

[Hmmm]

So you really think hes gonna do it anyway

[doubled_speed]

Yeah, I do. When he does, you can tell me that I told you so.

[tempredmental]

Hah
Whatever dude
Well see if he does first

[doubled_speed]

I've got metaphorical money on he does.

A few days later

[tempredmental]

Ok fine
You win the metaphorical money

[doubled_speed]

Damn right I do.

Is it a good toy?

[tempredmental]

Actually yeah
Kosmo likes it
Just gotta be careful where and how I thought it
It goes real far

Im almost annoyed that its good because now I owe him

[doubled_speed]

Tony will always provide if you need it here. And the thing is, he won't really expect anything back. I don't get him.

But it'd admirable.

[tempredmental]

I guess
Its a little unsettling having a possible debt over my head tho
Not sure if i like that
I just want to do the thing i owe and thats it

[doubled_speed]

Man, he won’t see it at as debt. Promise.

But do what you need to do.

[tempredmental]

[Keith considered that with a small sigh.]

Yeah okay

Either way we should hang out
I think youll like playing with kosmo with this thing he made

[doubled_speed]

You know I’m down to hang, man. Just let me know when you need time. I gotta balance it all with the diner. Back down to mostly only me working it and it’s a lot of weight.

[tempredmental]

Sure thing
Ill catch up with you soon

[doubled_speed]

Man you’ll only catch up if I want you to. But that’s something I can arrange.

[tempredmental]

Yeah yeah I get it
Youre fast lol

Its a figure of speech
Even I know that :P

[doubled_speed]

Figures of speech can’t keep up with me.

[tempredmental]

Well only if youre faster than the speed of sound

[doubled_speed]

Dude sound is my bitch.

[tempredmental]

Yet youre not booming all over the place
Holding back?

[doubled_speed]

You seen this city, Keith? Shit breaks when sonic booms happen locally. Back home they don’t tend to happen around me because something about my powers or whatever. But here? I don’t wanna risk bringing a building down or something.

[tempredmental]

[Okay, banter about speed aside... that was actually a really neat trick.]

Really?
You can go that fast without creating a boom?

[As a fighter pilot, Keith had definitely pushed various ships that fast if they could handle it, so he knew all about it, honestly, but the idea of someone having the power to go that fast on their own, and do it without the potential damage was just really cool.]
