"... Okay, if you all would please quit yapping in the comms for like ten second so I can solve this and the rest of today's problems, that'd be greatly appreciated!" Yes, he knew he was being shot at. Yes, he knew he was taking some hits, big whoop. They had to get this power grid back online or the entire system was going to fail- including the emergency power to the hospitals in the area. No pressure, no bigs, it's fine, totally normal day at the office.

Until he felt another hit, and was somehow pulled backwards. Before he could even register that he had a grappling hook attached to the ass of his suit, he watched a chunk of the building he had just been next to, falling. Mercifully it landed harmlessly on a parked, abandoned, already on its side city bus.

"Barton grabbed my ass, he owes me dinner!" He said, calmly, as he yanked the hook from the Goblet of Fire- or rather, removed it from the suit. "And he chipped the paint job. How very dare you, sir ... But thanks. Sensors are more damaged than I thought- what else do your Elf eyes see that I should know about before I get back at it?"

"Oh she would have left at a run, I've seen it happen plenty of times at functions and dinners. And online; I am guilty of falling into doom scrolling when the insomnia is bad. Either a narcissist plans it, or a narcissist is expecting it, at least from my understanding. Family dinners are different though- one of my engineers got proposed to at a Thanksgiving dinner with her family. First thing she did when she got back to work was announce it to the whole lab, basically. Pretty sure she just shouted before the door was even shut," he chuckled. "Instant gratification is very overrated. Though, if our dinner doesn't appear soon, I'm going to change my opinion on the merits of sitting in anticipation. I didn't eat on the flight in, too much turbulence to serve even water safely. I may be forced to eat my own shoes."

"You notice that the first thing she did was take out her phone and snap a picture? I'm all for saving memories, but savor the moment, come on." He was very attuned to a life full of, and in many cases, run by technology, but even he had his limits. His own phone was securely buttoned into his jacket pocket- if someone really needed him, it'd come through JARVIS's network on his watch. He had company, a phone was just rude. "I think her beau is relieved. Dessert says he planned this for weeks without ever talking to her about it first."

"Vivi- listen I know we've been drinking, but you can't just put your hands on my tatas like that-" He was teasing, stepping backwards as she shoved him out of the way, only for part of a bookshelf to crash to the ground a moment later.

"... Well fuck. That's the last time I purchase from IKEA. Took me an hour to assemble, and it barely lives a year... You okay?" he asked, stepping to the side to look down at her legs to see if anything had bruised her up. "Shit, hold still- good thing you ignored my no shoes rule," he said, carefully picking up a jagged piece of the shelf. "Really, you okay?"

The table nearby had just done an entire public proposal. The woman had seemed happy about it. Aria was pretty sure she'd be mortified if someone proposed in front of an entire restaurant. But to each their own. She takes a drink of her wine and looks across at the other person. "That's a bit scary, isn't it? You think you're just going to dinner and someone put you on the spot like that."

the things i take pleasure in, i can't do.

"Says who? What's the issue? Time, funding? Those you can get- you've gotta be making a decent income with all your research by now, you've been in the game since Thor first crash landed in New Mexico, right?"

PROMPTS FROM THE SOPRANOS *  assorted dialogue from the television show, adjust as necessary

i find i have to be the sad clown: laughing on the outside, crying on the inside.

i went ahead and ordered some for the table.

when you're married, you'll understand the importance of fresh produce.

we've got guns here.

he just told you to shut the fuck up.

the things i take pleasure in, i can't do.

don't you ever say you hate life.

oh, poor you!

so what, no fucking ziti now?

you want compromise? how's this?

i'll keep this short and sweet.

you're weak. you're outta control. and you've become an embarrassment to yourself and everybody else.

sometimes it's important to give people the illusion of being in control.

are you in the mafia?

tomorrow i can be on time, but you'll be stupid forever.

let me tell you a couple of three things.

you're not gonna believe this.

a wrong decision is better than indecision.

i'm like king midas in reverse here. everything i touch turns to shit.

if you can quote the rules, then you can obey them.

we're soldiers. soldiers don't go to hell. it's war. soldiers kill other soldiers.

we're in a situation where everyone involved knows the stakes and if you are going to accept those stakes, you've got to do certain things.

there's an old italian saying: you fuck up once, you lose two teeth.

someday soon, you're gonna have families of your own and if you're lucky, you'll remember the little moments like this that were good.

hey, i don't even let anyone wag their finger in my face.

it's good to be in something from the ground floor.

those who want respect give respect.

is this a woman thing? you ask me how i'm feeling, i tell you how i'm feeling, and now you're going to torture me with it.

lately, i'm getting the feeling that i came in at the end. the best is over.

my father was in it. my uncle was in it.

maybe i was too lazy to think for myself.

buy land, 'cause god ain't making any more of it.

i don't care how close you are. in the end, your friends are gonna let you down.

family... they're the only ones you can depend on.

take your hat off.

teddy roosevelt once gave an entire speech with a bullet lodged in his chest. some things are just a matter of duty.

some people are so far behind in a race that they actually believe they're leading.

sometimes we're all hypocrites.

other people's definitions of you, sometimes they're more about making themselves feel better. you gotta define yourself.

people only see what you allow them to see.

death just shows the ultimate absurdity of life.

you know when i was depressed i said i didn't want to live? well, i'll tell you something. i didn't want to die.

that's why dinosaurs don't exist no more.

don't touch that! my program's coming on.

i wish the lord would take me now.

our existence on this earth is a puzzle.

i'm getting my wine in position to throw in your damn face.

"Are you going to read me my rights?"

"Depends. You done anything worthy of being arrested?"

[irxnxvenxgr]

"I thought you hated the police?"

"After the last few years.... no, I don't hate the police. I hate the Feds. Anyone who has some sort of way to answer to Ross? Hate 'em."

Sometimes our emotions get the better of us.

Detective Sentences, Vol. 16

(Sentences from various sources for detectives and/or muses that like to solve mysteries. Adjust phrasing where needed)

"I thought you hated the police?"

"So many people think that when you're exposed to death and suffering every day, you become immune. It's quite the opposite."

"The way I look at it, he wouldn't be trying to stop us if what we were doing wasn't threatening to him, and he wouldn't be threatened if he wasn't vulnerable."

"What makes you think you're such a catch? A scruffy copper who only comes home when he feels like it?"

"Is there a mystery here? Yes. Will there always be unanswered questions? Most likely. Sometimes that happens, and when it does, you just need to learn how to live with it and move on."

"You were right; it's not like the books."

"Would you care to be a little more specific?"

"You're cutting corners! You're threatening witnesses, and you're going to get yourself into trouble!"

"You have a very individual approach to detection, but we're all part of a team, and teamwork's what gets us results!"

"We all come out of this a lot less human than we went in."

"For once in your life, admit that you are up against something bigger than you!"

"Your attention span might be very short, but I need it all right now."

"Is this a real case, or one of those imaginary cases that happen when you’re bored?"

"In police training, you learn how to deal with every situation, but I think I must have been sick on this day."

"Bravery's good news. It's got to be maximised."

"You can read people. You understand them."

"You know, it'd have been a lot easier if you'd come clean when we first spoke to you."

"I do hope that you will be able to remember a few things. I do tend to come down rather heavily on people who are holding things back."

"You are not the first who has come to seduce me with some irresistible case."

"I just made a few mistakes tonight that made me question whether I should be a cop at all, you know?"

"Okay, bear with me here because some people sometimes consider my thought processes complicated."

"The truth can be so very hard to determine, but in this case, the truth seems very hard to deny."

"Are you going to read me my rights?"

"From the state of her face, there must have been blood everywhere - but as you can see, the place is immaculate. No blood, no mess. Everything in its place. He must have tidied up after himself."

"When you entered, I noted your shirt hadn't been pressed; you hadn't shaved in quite some time. I extrapolated you were a person for whom detail is not a major concern."

"Once you've got the smell of what human beings do to each other in your nostrils, you'll never get rid of it."

"Don't you dare play the innocent with me!"

"Eventually, you get a case, and you know it is the last one you can stomach and still know your soul."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RDJ!

"A joke at your own trauma expense- gosh, here I thought I was the only one that did that on a regular basis," he joked. Good, their banter was clicking back into place, pushing the slight awkwardness from earlier away. Part of why he liked Stephen so much was that he was never afraid to give the banter back. Part of why he was beginning to realize he liked Stephen was because the banter made Tony feel like Stephen saw him as a person worthy to be playful with. He'd missed knowing what that felt like. "Two hours? Really? Stephen, I got my suit in an auto-steam-and-press machine already. I'll be ready in... an hour and a half." He gave the man a little wink, and turned to leave back to the Tower to get ready.

"Come on Stephen, you're too pretty to insult," he teased, a little grin cracking on his face. He wondered about the request to not have to drive. Of course Stephen wouldn't be driving, Tony was picking him- Oh. Right. "If a car makes you nervous, I suppose we could both fly and meet up there, but I think that might draw some attention... And I was kind of hoping this would just be two guys goin' on a nice date, you know? Not a guy that does magic and a guy that has a flying suit of armor. But if it really makes you uncomfortable to be in a car, we can fly or do your portal thing."
