Smoke Signal Twenty [accidental audio]

[charring]

[There is the sound of paper rustling and a faint scratching sound, possibly pen on the aforementioned paper. And Charlie's muttering to herself.]

Okay...okay, so...[pause] No clue what I'm doing. Shoulda paid better attention to Norma when she cooked thanksgiving dinner.

[There is a thump, pages being turned and more of that scratching-on-paper sound.]

...don't even like the holidays that much. And this shopping list is getting ridiculously long.

...damn.

That's very exciting. You'll show me when you're finished, right?

How about I do you one better and take you for a round over the City?

Well, if you don't want to, it's completely up to you.

[charring]

No! No, I do. I just...it's kind of unexpected. Have you ever flown anyone before?

I don't make a practice of it.

[So wait he's never...what is...oh, Tony. What are you doing?]

Okay. Sure. That sounds exciting, actually.

[Scratch that. Charlie, what are you doing?]

Just let me know when.

I promise not to fly at the speed of sound.

[She laughs, hand over her mouth for a moment. What is she even considering, here?]

I appreciate that, Tony. I should probably consider dressing warmly, though, right?

Unfortunate, but yes. Highly recommended.

I only suggest it because that doesn't seem like the most opportune time to test your suit against super-heat. [Thank God she went shopping recently, then.]

This is really exciting.

That can wait until I'm out of the suit, actually.
