[color=#cc33ff]{[/color][i]"You're not a man. You're nothing more than a maniac. I'm not afraid of you."[/i][color=#cc33ff]}[/color][/center][hr][hr]	[color=f7941d]"Two things: you need a spin one half nucleus ideally, so do a 1H, not a 3H. Easier to obtain as well. And then canulate isn't a word, as useful as it may be,"[/color] Tony replied, before continuing on. [color=f7941d]"I'd bring the NMR tube into a glove box and do the combination in there, in order to prevent from having to use a syringe or a canula on the cap."[/color]

	Guin nodded, despite the fact that she was on the phone and that she knew everything her father had just said. It had been a simple tactic to avoid saying what was really on her mind--that this was a mission far deadlier than the last one. She didn't have any mutant powers like most of the team, just cheap tricks and cheesy one liners. [color=#cc33ff]"Thanks. I'll do that,"[/color] Guin replied, before hearing the question she had dreaded on the other end of the line. She was too similar to her father in order to lie to him successfully. They were both genius rebel assholes. 

	[color=f7941d]"What's really going on, Penguin?"[/color] Tony had asked, calling Guin by her childhood nickname. Her heart pounded, trying to figure out exactly what to say. She was about to go toe to toe with Magneto in a desperate attempt to save the world. Any sane person would've run the other way, found a bunker, and just waited out the epidemic that was likely about to come. But instead, she was running right towards it. 

	[color=#cc33ff]"When you were in Afghanistan, what kept you going?"[/color] Guin asked. It was the best way for her to indirectly ask her real question: what do you do when the odds are against you? And of course, her own way of telling her dad the stakes she was up against. As much as they fought over her choice to join S.H.I.E.L.D. and assist the X-Men, they had come to a bit of an understanding that Guin wasn't going to back down. She was her father's daughter. 

	[color=f7941d]"It wasn't just about surviving--it was about my legacy,"[/color] Tony admitted. [color=f7941d]"I was a genius billionaire playboy...but that wasn't what I wanted my legacy to be--the [i]Stark[/i] legacy to be. And that's why I became Iron Man--why I privatized World Peace--I became a genius billionaire playboy [i]philanthropist.[/i]"[/color]

	[color=#cc33ff]"Egotistical much?"[/color] Guin teased about, though she found some comfort in his words. She wasn't someone who ran away when things got tough. But it was also a subtle reminder that there was more to life than just this.[color=#cc33ff]"After this mission, I'm going to take a leave of absence from S.H.I.E.L.D.,"[/color] Guin informed her father.[color=#cc33ff]"I love you, Dad,"[/color] she said, before hanging up the phone. The professor's voice echoed in her head a moment later and Guin began to make her way down to the garage.
