I Want To Be Well

Tony Stark is not coping.His life has been steadily falling apart after what the media dubbed the CivilWar, and the accords are driving him up the wall.So, can you really blame him for falling off the deep end a little bit? Maybe it’s not in his best interest to be staying up this late, and especially to be going out this late, but he’s been in the lab all night and desperately needs fresh air.So here he is, walking down the sketchy part of NY In the dead of night, maybe hoping just a little bit that someone would be dumb enough to try and rob Iron Man, cause honestly he needs to let off some steam. When suddenly he hears sobbingIt’s faint, and clearly whoever it is is trying to stay silent, but there’s a clear and undeniable note of terror in it, of pain. Blinking, he pulls his iron man gauntlet out and creeps closer, and now he can hear another voice, scared and quiet and frantic and he steps into the mouth of the alleyway-holy fuck: It’s two kids.One of which, is covered undeniably in an outright horrifying amount of blood, which is steadily covering the hands of the other one.What the fuck-PLEASE READ THE TAGS!!
