Finally was able to start the sequel. It may be longer, considering that this time there is going to be involvement in almost every part. I may start a series of drabbles of cute or funny moments of the series, but I don't know. On with the story!

Life got weird but comfortable after being seen by both Tony and Pepper. A few days after Pepper had seen me, she was able to be on the same room with me without reaching to grab me as if I was made of glass. Seriously, that woman worried too much. I'm actually surprised that she hasn't died from a heart attack yet.

She was really nice to me afterwards. She actually took me shopping. Of course, it was in a toy store for doll clothes (she insisted) but it was a nice gesture. I was a little embarrassed when she made me try some frilly outfits that would have made me gag had I seen myself in a mirror.

We finally came back to the mansion after Pepper had tripled checked that I had everything I could possibly need (plus some cool things). I was ready to head to my vents to sleep when Tony called us to go to the workspace with him since he had a surprise for me. I was kinda worried of the surprise he had prepared while we were gone. Surprises in the Stark mansion was the definition for unexpected-and-acting-as-if-it-was-planned-all-along. It usually came with bad consequences.

Pepper carried me down on her shoulder. I asked her to do this since all day I was in her purse and a female Bean's purse is somewhere that I'll never ever return to. Once we were down, Tony was standing in front a suspicious lump covered by a blanket.

"So, the shopping spree went great?" He was really sheepish which made Pepper very suspicious.

"Yes it did. Now what is this surprise you wanted to show us?"

Tony suddenly grinned and got all excited and bouncy like a gigantic 5 year old. It was truly terrifying.

"You see, while you were out spending half of my fortune on miniaturized crap, I was busy. Really busy."

He then approached the suspicious lump and tore the blanket off. I blinked in surprise because there was a dollhouse that looked exactly like the Stark mansion. It was in perfect proportion for a Borrower and I was speechless.

Pepper was also impressed and Tony was smiling as if Christmas came early this year.

"Come on, try it!"

Pepper shook out of her stupor and lifted an upturn hand in front of me. I walked to it and she placed me in front of the doors. I went and opened them. I had never opened a door, after all I was barely able to push them, let alone turn a knob. I entered and when I looked around I could see that the inside held furniture and decoration that was similar to the actual ones in the real size mansion. I walked around the living room and there was a plasma in front of me.

"Pretty neat, huh?" I turned and a gigantic brown eye was staring at me through the glass wall. "Come on, try the appliances. They all work."

I went to the kitchen and started trying the stove. It lit up a tiny flame and the oven worked too. The fridge was also functioning, but it didn't have any food inside.

"Wow, Tony this time you really outdone yourself." It wasn't me who said that, but Pepper. She must have seen the rest of the house and when I turned to where Tony's eye had been gazing in, Pepper's eye stood instead. She was inspecting every detail in the room and stopped to where I was.

"Yeah, I mean this is incredibly well done. You made everything yourself?" I heard rumbling outside and realized that it was Tony scuffing indignantly.

"Seriously, you doubt my awesomeness? This was nothing. These hands have made smaller complicated thing."

I rolled my eyes and then turned the TV on. It worked perfectly. Ironically, 'Honey, I shrunk the kids' started playing so I turned it off.

I walked up the stairs and walked to the nearest door. When I opened it, I gasped. It was a bedroom, and inside was a king size bed with blue covers. There was a dresser in the corner to the right and a working desk with a laptop on top. There was also a beanie in one corner and a plasma in front of the bed. The walls were white, as if waiting for me to decorate them. I was flabbergasted; I didn't know Tony was this considerate.

I heard fabric shifting outside and suddenly the same gigantic eye was staring at me through the window.

"Like the room?" When I nodded, the eye started inspecting everything in the room. "Everything has Wifi or cable and the mansion sustains itself. There's water running and everything that's in an actual house. So, wanna move in?"

While I could only see his eye, I could tell he was nervous. I didn't understand why, this place was amazing! It was any Borrower's dream come true; owning a place and calling it yours. Plus, your daily necessities covered and not having to risk your life to survive were a big bonus. It was perfect.

"Of course I'm gonna move in or were you thinking in giving it to another Borrower?"
"Borrower?" Oh shit. Well, what's done is done.

"It's the name of my people. We 'borrow' what we need from you humans, hence the name."

"So are there more of you out there?" I shuffled undecided to whether tell him or not, but he deserved to know. After all, I was standing in a replica of his mansion inside his mansion.

"Yeah, but usually we're hiding from humans to avoid being crushed, experimented on or trapped as pets." Tony's eye widened from either amazement of knowing of my race or horror of knowing what humans did that to us.

I went to open the balcony door and Tony's eye retreated. I came out and waved to the crouching Tony and Pepper that were outside. They waved back and Tony placed his hand in front of the balcony so I could climb on it.

"Where do you want us to place it? I was thinking of putting it in one of the bedrooms so to avoid any prying people that come here."

"One of the bedrooms is alright."

Tony then raised his hand to his shoulder and I walked over it. We had discovered that it was the best place for me to stand and I had grown accustomed to the bumpy ride that was a Bean walking. I walked and grabbed strands of his hair to have something to hold to so I wouldn't fall and become a smudge in the floor. I shuddered just in thinking about it.

Tony and Pepper each grabbed opposite sides of my new home and started walking towards one of the bedrooms. When we got there, they placed it near the window so I could have light inside and beside the bed so it would be partially covered.

Pepper then said goodbye and headed home. I began exploring the rest of the house with Tony following me by seeing through the windows. I was fascinated by the rest of the rooms, and when I was back in the living room I noticed that there were stairs heading to a sub level. Intrigued, I went down and when I reached the end of them, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

"Oh. My. God." Tony had integrated a working space in the basement of the mansion. I walked through the glass doors and started checking out what was inside the lab. There were tools that fitted perfectly in my hands and screens that were in scale for me. I felt tears running down my face and laughed. Tony was amazing. I quickly wiped my face clean and headed to the roof. I was confused when I didn't see Tony outside but looked up when I heard him talking.

"So, I guess you discovered the lab?" He was on the bed and was staring at me from the edge.

I nodded excited and went to lie on some roof-chairs.

"I love it." I smiled at him and he smiled back.

I was lying staring up at him and he was lying staring down at me. Never in a million years did I thought I would be in this position. I mean, how many Borrowers can say that they have a Bean friend and their own sustaining house? Not many.

"So, pizza for dinner?"

I grinned. "Sounds great."
