No-One But You (The Mystic Consultant) - Part 1
Chapter Twenty-five: Did I Let You Know (Part 6)
Stephen Strange had all of his...wizard drama mapped out all over the living room for everyone to see.
Tony was snacking on something while the sorcerer made up a mystical display. Steve Rogers seemed very engaged with what was happening, and Bucky Barnes barely moved an inch.
It was, interesting. Tony thought it all over as he stepped closer toward the group. Stephen had a picture of his adorable baby brother floating about.
There was an image of Ezekiel next to Victor, a picture of his wife and daughter, then a picture of Christine Palmer next to it. Tony inwardly referred to her as "Miss Wednesday" based off of stuff that happened a million years ago.
The shorter brunette briefly wondered how she was involved, and why.
Tony's eyes migrated over toward someone else that was placed unexpectedly. Stephen was building a map that navigated all of his present issues, and it seemed like Wade Wilson still had a part in the mix.
His goofy image was placed off toward the side of the display. He was set close toward a section that clearly meant "S.H.I.E.L.D." personnel, even tho he had nothing to do with the organization.
"What did you guys do with Wade Wilson?"
Bucky chimed in. He liked to know where the crazy one was located at all times. He didn't want to cross paths with Deadpool if he didn't have to. Tony felt amused with what he heard, so he gave Bucky a gentle response.
"I put him in one of my labs."
Deadpool's body was very unique, and Tony wanted to hold onto it. The mercenary was technically Stephen's prisoner, so ...
The Sorcerer Supreme was almost done mapping out all of his issues. He ignored Bucky's question for the moment, because he planned to map everything out and fix everything right there with his group of friends.
Wade Wilson's involvement with that had barely begun, so Stephen kept his image off to the side. The images in the middle were the ones that affected him deeply.
His brother Victor, and his wife...
Stephen was having a hard time looking at their images, but he had to. He had to map it out, and figure out what he was doing. Steve could see what was happening in the living room of his apartment.
In that moment, it seemed like Stephen finished constructing the roadwork of his life. Steve watched him settle somewhat, and then he turned toward the others.
"Ok. Let's start here."
Stephen brought his hand up toward the image of his baby brother. Victor Strange looked happy in the photo, and Steve wondered if the image came from Stephen's memory.
Perhaps it was a goal of his to see his brother match the image. Who knew. They all tuned into what Stephen had going on, because they all wanted a good outcome.
"I plan to connect Victor's skills with the Mystic Arts to S.H.I.E.L.D.."
That's where Steve and Bucky came in. The sorcerer had connections there on his own, but sometimes things went smooth when you have a friend or two..
