Tony Stark Attempts To Obtain New Pets. Oh dear. This cannot be good for your mental health. Warning: this is centered around everyone's favorite egomaniac, but I have an OC (Spectra) on the Avengers team that does own an important role. She's an Avenger. Duh.
Disclaimer: not mine. Yet.
Tony waltzed into Stark Tower's huge entertainment room holding a leash. And the leash was attached to five German Sheperds. Oh joy.
The dogs barked.
The Avengers ignored Tony.
They were too busy doing very important things. Barton was taking a nap in the air vents, Natasha was cleaning her guns, Banner was down the lab doing...sciency things, Cap was trying to figure out how to use a toaster, Thor was raiding the cabinets for poptarts, and Spectra was floating cross-legged in the corner, reading a book and ignoring everyone.
So not that important.
But they didn't want to deal with Tony's Starkiness.
The largest dog growled at Spectra.
Biggest mistake ever.
Spectra glared at it. The dog whimpered, its tail between its legs.
Stark threw an arm around her shoulder, sporting an egotistic smirk. "See, he likes you!"
In response, Spectra turned into her ghostly form, allowing Tony's arm to fall through her. He hit the floor face first. Spectra turned back to normal, then offered Tony a hand. When he took it, she promptly flipped him over her head into the wall.
Holding against the wall by his throat, she growled into his ear a metric crap ton of violent threats, then drew back and said sarcastically,"Now, is Tony going to be a good boy and return the doggies to the pet store?"
Stark peeped out a terrified,"Yes."
Smiling, she dropped him. "Good little egomanic."
The Avengers doubled over laughing, except for Tony, who did the smart thing (for once) and ran, the dogs in tow.
Captain America, the great hero that bested Red Skull in combat, frowned.
"How do you turn this thing on?!"He said, pressing the switch down repeatedly.
The toaster was unplugged.
