Stark Industries [afternoon]

After some time poking around for boxes full of money and his own inate sense of self-preservation/paranoia, Cade had a fairly impressive pile of guns on his counter that he was taking apart, cleaning, and putting back together with way more proficiency than any teenager who wasn't in Fandom should have.

He'd help with yours too, for a small fee!

"Whoa, what's with the arsenal?" Look, Raleigh had just been trying to get out of the to self rain. He wasn't expecting this.

"I was thinking of trying a hostile takeover of the gun shop," Cade said. "Good idea?"

"I think that depends on how hostile you mean."

"Maybe a sternly worded letter first, then some of the cheap guns you can get from the new vending machines."

Cade=tactical genius!

Only not. The Wiggin was not strong with him right now.

"...sure," Raleigh replied slowly. "That sounds like a winning plan."

He would have gone with punch things, but why not?

Cade nodded, satisfied. "Or maybe I'll just give these out as gifts."

Because that's normal.

"Do people like getting guns?" Because wasn't that big a fan.

"Weapons, at least," Cade said. "Or jewelry. Or jewelry that can be used as a weapon?"

Beat.

"I don't have a lot of friends."

Go figure.

Raleigh gave him a sympathetic look. "You could keep them and use the money laying around for gifts?"

[identity profile] makemyownway.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"But not guns," Cade checked. "Right?"

[identity profile] notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Try asking what they want," he suggested. "And if guns are on the list, go for it."

[identity profile] makemyownway.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ohhh."

Pause.

"There's supposed to be a list?"

[identity profile] notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
"There is supposed to be a list," Raleigh replied seriously. "This your first Christmas?"

[identity profile] makemyownway.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Cade shook his head. "I just kind of ignore it. No one gets me anything so kark it, you know?"

[identity profile] notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"What do you want?"

You're getting a sweater, lbr.

Cade frowned. "I guess I don't need any guns..."

[identity profile] notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com 2013-12-09 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"You do have a lot." A terrifying amount even. "How about I just surprise you?"

WITH A SWEATER. AN UGLY SWEATER.

Cade looked truly taken aback. "You'd get me a present?"

[identity profile] notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com 2013-12-10 01:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's the holidays," Raleigh replied with a smile and a shrug. Because that explained everything.

[identity profile] makemyownway.livejournal.com 2013-12-10 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Cade blinked. "Oh. I guess it is?"

He was still new to this "not being a complete shit" idea.

Damn it, Cade. Damn it.

"Just... Maybe put the guns away before gift giving time."

Might be less threatening.

"Unless I'm giving them guns," Cade said.
