STUPID MONDAYS
In Tony's opinion, Mondays were always stupid. This became a fact when him and Coulson went to a meeting about the Avengers with the military and suddenly, General Ross showed up and cornered them both in the hallway outside the meeting room.
"Have you lost your mind? Become suicidal? Well Stark? What have you got to say for yourself? You're a genius aren't you? HAND THAT MONSTER OVER TO THE MILITARY!" Ross yelled stepping even closer Into Tony's personal space, his matted brown wings poised outwards threateningly.
Coulson sensing things about to take a turn for the worse cleared his throat, "Mr. Ross-"
"Shut up lackey, I'm speaking to Stark." Ross snapped cutting Coulson off.
Tony had enough of Ross's shit and pushed him back with his finger jabbing into his chest snarling, "Okay, he's not a lackey more like a super-nanny. Oh, and Fuck off Ross. Bruce, is one of the nicest, kindest and best person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting and trust me, you are most certainly noton that list."
"A p-person?!" Ross spluttered, "He's a monster! If anything that thing needs to be taken out!"
Tony snapped. He's wings flew out from behind his back with a loud FLAPhovering in a threateningly manner yet arching backwards in a almost protective embrace around Coulson at the same time, revealing all 18 ft of his wings. Since Coulson was behind him, Tony never saw Coulson flinch back when his wings came out or see his startled, wide eyes or how Coulson's own wings quivered and lowered down to the floor almost as though bowing in respect.
What Tony did see was Ross pale drastically and lean away from him. Tony leaned forward and whispered harshly, "Listen here Ross, don't ever let me hear you fucking say that again. If you or someone else ever tries to hurt Bruce or convince him he's some sort of monster, which he's not, than I can guarantee you that I will destroy you. I will ruin everything you've ever built up over the years, It is perfectly within my ability to tear you and your pathetic life limb from limb and piece by piece. Whatever isn't I'll make it, just so I can see you suffer. If you even fucking dare to step foot near Avengers Tower than I will fill your body with lead."
"I-Is that a t-threat Stark?" Ross demanded his voice cracking and his body shaking in fear.
"No. Its a promise."
Turning around Tony looked at Coulson, who saw the cold look in Tony's eyes which seemed to melt away, and quickly tucked his wings more tightly against his spine once more. Coulson, who had long since regained his composure, nodded at Tony and the both of them walked side by side down the hall and outside to where Happy was waiting with the limo. Coulson smiling the entire way as he noticed out of the corner of his eye, Tony's wing closest to him kept curling out as though shielding his back as they left Ross standing there.
