oohhh yes

tony fakes his own death after endgame and lives peacefully with his family in upstate new york. it’s an open secret in the superhero community, but no one outside of this group knows that tony is still alive.

so after happy has picked up peter and heard all about what’s happened, he tells tony. being the protective iron dad he is, tony can’t just sit back and let some maniacal engineer bully his son just because the sociopath managed to get himself fired from stark industries. he apparently has a score to settle with this man and he’s not about to let peter inherit an ex-employee’s beef with the starks the way tony did when vanko appeared in all his whipped up glory.

tony goes all out gets costume-grade makeup done to make himself look like a zombie as a loving throwback to the fucked up illusion that beck created for peter. then he hacks the drones to create a cute little fun house mirror effect to surround beck and reflect every single movement tony makes in the suit. when the snarl on the armor’s faceplate starts drawing back, unhinging like a snake’s jaw to reveal tony’s zombie face, well.

beck simply soils his pants and faints.

all in all an easy win, really.

p.s. EDITH actually stands for Eating Donuts In The House bc that’s tony’s favorite thing to do in retirement.

the first thing tony does when he starts developing the nanobots is make sure they can make the face plate of the iron man suit emote.
