Caritas [Saturday evening]

Robin was not wearing her Robin Sparkles regalia longer than she needed to. Which was for the obligatory performance.

So, for right now, the wig and graffiti denim jacket were tucked away, and Robin herself, brunette and irritable-looking as ever, was behind the bar and eyeing a bottle of Johnnie Walker.

[hooooly crap, wait for this OCD. it's intense. OKAY IT'S ALL UP. For the sake of not collapsing the post from sheer OCD, there's no audience reactions threads -- just react right off the performances, please! Have fun! \m/]

"Larusmiani, Armani," Tony suggested. "New money?"

"Me? Not really. But they are," Emma said, pointing to the crowd. "If they actually have any at all, that is, and most of them wouldn't have the sense to go for Armani if it was dangling in front of them."

"And really, would we want them to?" Ick. Waste of good clothing.

"That would mean being able to sing," Tony pointed out kindly. He waved his empty glass in Tino's direction. "And, really now, who wants to?"
icecoldfrost: (Decadent Emma)

"If I wanted to sing, someone should pin me down and check me for brain damage," Emma replied sourly, also giving Tino a Look. "Singing is for small children and animated movies."

Her glass was almost empty. This was unacceptable.

"I'm sure you'd make a lovely Disney heroine."
icecoldfrost: (I can kill you with my mind)

"Disney heroines wouldn't make the prince sign a pre-nup," Emma said sweetly. "Insipid little twits."

"That is why you hire those attorneys." Well, one of the reasons. "Tony Stark."
icecoldfrost: (all your kings and queens)

Emma gave him one of her million-watt smiles. "Stark Industries," she said by way of recognition.

"Emma Frost. Most definitely charmed." Especially considering that she'd purchased stock in Stark after Cumberland's party, and it was paying off quite nicely.

"You've heard of me?" And wasn't thinking he might go insane. That was interesting and new.
icecoldfrost: (you are giving me a headache)

"Mmm. Although Anthony Stark is my age, and I'm rather sure is at MIT doing genius-type things," Emma drawled, looking him over. "This is one of those time-things, isn't it?"

Still, it was someone from home, and Emma couldn't help being fascinated.

"It is. You get used to them here."

No you didn't.

"I'm pretty sure I've already graduated," Tony replied. "I think that happened around your age."
icecoldfrost: (Emma is all business)

"At sixteen? Now I feel like an underachiever," Emma sighed. "I recently moved away from Boston, so I haven't been following the local society pages quite as often. Should I offer my belated congratulations?"

"Seventeen, actually," Tony corrected. "I used to be much better at guessing ages."
icecoldfrost: (emma smile)

"Still close," she laughed. "I'll be seventeen this year."

"I'll take that as a compliment, since I tend to avoid my own age group like the plague, unless they prove themselves interesting." Mostly because all the boys thought about was sex, and the girls cared about was boys. Dull.

Oh, the hardship of being far smarter than your peers...

Tony snorted in amusement. "You get used to it or just have fun elsewhere."

Like teaching assistants.
icecoldfrost: (hurt the ones you love)

"Sadly, I'm rather easy to entertain; my idea of fun is the business section," Emma said dryly, waving down Tino for another refill. "Or tormenting people."

"Same thing, really."

"I find building works for me." Then again, most of his brain was focused on solving problems with flight, weight distribution, weapons, power systems...
icecoldfrost: (being social)

"I would assume that's why you went to MIT. Are at MIT. Something," she replied, waving one hand. "I am not going to try and bend my brain around the proper verb and adjective forms for time differentials."

"Try figuring out how it's even possible," Tony replied, downing his fresh glass before Tino even had time to leave and waving for a new one.
icecoldfrost: (Emma drinking)

"I want what he's having," Emma informed Tino haughtily. No, she hadn't finished her martini yet (second? third? whatever), but that wasn't going to stop her.

"I don't care how it's possible," she continued, "I just want to know if I can safely invest based on what I learn here, and not cause the world to explode or whatever."

"Scotch on the rocks," Tony prompted for her. "I wouldn't look too closely in stock tips. Almost everyone I've met who knows me seems... to know a different me."
icecoldfrost: (bitch plz)

"Did you talk to the unbalanced man in the red bodysuit too?" Emma asked sympathetically. "He seems to think he knows me."

Tony frowned for a moment as he puzzled together who that was. "Ah, the man seeing our esteemed mayor. No. I haven't had the pleasure."
