【Iron Bug】Forget–me–not

The previous barriers seemed to be swept away.After the heavy rain stopped, the air was fresh and clean, and the haze and emotional concealment in the cave seemed to have flowed to other places with the rain.

The flames made a crackling sound, and the flames became weaker and weaker - but they didn't care about it, they just hugged each other intimately.I don't want to do anything, and I don't want to say much.I don't have any extra desires, I just want to get closer, and get closer...Love and honesty make them close.

Peter nestled in Tony's arms, eyes half closed, he arched the man's chest: "Sir, I want to ask you a question."

"Huh? What's the problem." Tony combed the boy's curly hair once and for all, and he was resting with his eyes closed.

"How much time would it take to make a comm if you really went all out? I know you're being a bit cynical about making it for the sake of... um, um... prolonging our stay here... um... …” Peter felt that it was very risky to expose Tony, after all, his man was a super rich man, a genius, a playboy and a philanthropist.

Sure enough, Tony's back froze obviously after hearing this question, and his hand suddenly became stronger, pulling a few strands of Peter's curly hair.

Peter didn't react, and let out a "hiss" suddenly.

"Oh, sorry, kid." Tony rubbed the back of the boy's head hastily, he lowered his head and kissed Peter's forehead, his voice was indistinct - probably an apology for being discovered.He actually realized this just now. Although all of Peter's physical reactions are no different from normal people, his status as an "assistant" will definitely greatly improve his physical fitness. As for whether he is passive and sabotage, he must be clear Very: "I'm sorry... Well, it is actually very difficult for Tony Stark to apologize to others, but I must say this sorry. That's right, I did slow down the progress out of selfishness. Originally, this project could be done in about It will be finished in ten days."

Peter laughed out loud, he stretched out his arms around the man's neck, and hung his whole body on Tony's body: "It's okay, you must remember that it's not your fault if you can't finish it. So how much time will it take at the current speed?" ?”

"It will take another month if I keep it up... well, even if I don't eat or sleep, it will probably take another week or so."

"Let's not talk about that." Tony changed the subject, and successful men would always be embarrassed: "Tell me something about you, I want to hear it."

"Then you have to trade your story."

"childish."

"I don't care, anyway, I want to listen."

"Okay, listen to you..." It was the first time in a month that Tony saw Peter acting like a baby to himself. Although he said it was childish, he duplicity thought that the boy was extremely cute.

"Then let me tell you something about just coming here, you must be wondering why I put a bouquet of 'forget-me-nots in space' on the diary." The boy's head was bouncing on Tony's chest.

"Hmm... because you are literary? Or... have a girly plot?"

"How is it possible!" Peter made an exaggerated expression, and he rolled his eyes: "Because for a while I felt that I was not a human anymore-I even wrote that diary as my 'graveyard journal' , so there is nothing about me being an 'assistant'. Because many of the previous parts were filled in, but after it was written, I thought it was no big deal, so I naturally wrote him down as a diary. gone."

"Kid, you still haven't explained clearly why you put flowers on the notebook."

"That's my 'graveyard journal'. Don't people put flowers next to gravestones?"

"What's going on in your little head..." Tony felt a little helpless laughing: "Then it's my turn? What do you want to hear?"

"I want to know... what was your past like? It might not be polite, but I still want to know more, or I can pick up some irrelevant things to say." Peter changed his posture.He rested his hands on his cheeks and stared at Tony with his beautiful eyes wide open, with the innocent appearance of a child who is curious about knowledge.

"Well... I think you must not be interested in my frivolous news, and I have to admit that I was an asshole at a time-at that time, human beings were facing the worst and most serious climate change in history. I used to be an arms dealer .You know, I made a lot of war money at that time.” Tony gradually recalled the high spirits at that time, he even remembered standing on the land of the Middle East, the flying dust and the roar of new weapons exploding like a pump. I blow up a balloon full of ambition and ignorance: "Later, I was caught by terrorists and suffered a lot before I shifted my development goals. I decided to go into space and do something for this world. Although my conscience rarely speaks, But I know he's still there."

"But life in space is hard, I mean, compared to before...always lonely..."

"Well, I don't care about these. After all, the universe is the most difficult girl to understand, and it is already a very brain-consuming thing to catch up with her. And I have made many friends in the process—although some of them have already left or broke up," the man said here and paused: "But those experiences will never be erased, they still taught me something and left something. That is the most precious."

In fact, Tony rarely said so many serious things in one breath, and this night reminded him of some past events.He wants to share it with his boy because he's the one he wants to move on with.

Peter lay still.He looked at Tony with a sad look, those dark brown eyes couldn't distinguish the color at night, only a thick black pool: "I will be with you."

This sentence sounds a bit abrupt, but Tony knows it's the best comfort.

"I have to ask you a question, kid," he said.

The boy looked up at him.

"Why do you say that time is running out?"

Peter seemed to know that Tony would ask this question, he laughed: "Because you know I'm a 'semi-assistant' and you won't delay the progress, we'll be able to leave soon.

"Then go to a place with a lot of people, I don't know if I can adapt to life there."

"Yes, kid." Tony turned around and put his arms around Peter. Although he knew that what the boy said was still not true, he couldn't press any more at this time—so he stopped asking: "At least I'm here." .”

"I'm a bit sleepy, Tony."

"Does 'Helper' still need sleep?"

"This can reduce loss, and the same is true for eating."

Tony kissed Peter's forehead: "Okay then, my little angel, go to sleep."

Tony didn't expect everything to change when he woke up.

He didn't expect it.

Unexpectedly, the final outcome turned out to be like this.

The nutrient solution and treatment solution were flowing into his left arm through the catheter, and he suddenly felt the pain from the wound, piercing his heart, every muscle and every vein screaming.

"Peter?! Peter!" Countless thoughts flashed through his mind but he couldn't grasp any of them... Above his head was the black and gold roof of the spaceship, and some glaring white light made him unable to open his eyes. This should be a certain ship. A compartment of a spaceship—was it a dream?If this is a dream, then he has to wake up quickly.

The man unplugged the ventilator from his face, the first thing he noticed was the wound on his arm.It was very different there from before. Through the transparent airtight healing reservoir, one could clearly see that the entire arm was a rotten black-green color, and the front of the wound was exposed there, as if it had been allowed to deteriorate for a long time. But there is no treatment.

"Is anyone there, Peter?" Tony's first thought was that something had happened while they were asleep, maybe a spaceship just happened to come by and rescue them both.But he always felt something was wrong, if so, he didn't believe that his kid would not be by his side at this time.

"You are awake at last, my friend, and your luck could not have been better."

Tony felt that he had an auditory hallucination, so he heard the muttering of the blond fool alien who hadn't seen him for a few years.

"Why are you in a daze, it's me." However, he soon discovered that this was not an auditory hallucination, because the blond fool alien was coming in through the door, and now he had come to his own treatment bed.

"Now tell me it was a dream."

Thor lowered his head to think for a few seconds, and his voice was extremely low—a tone that could only be used to answer a rather serious question: "My friend, I'm afraid this is not the case."

They all paused for a moment without speaking.

"That……"

"I know what you're going to ask, here's it for you, you read it yourself first." Thor handed a black leather notebook to Tony, turned and walked out: "You have to pay attention to your emotions."

The whole space became quiet again.

For the first time Tony actually saw his fingers trembling, and this time, he was afraid to see the truth.

But the facts are there.

He needs to know what happened to Peter.

Nothing had changed before, and Tony quickly flipped through the front page - he soon discovered that there was an extra entry after that night, a new diary entry.

The first day of the conversion day on November 2121, 11 in the Earth's calendar

To my dear sir, Tony,

When you read this diary, I believe that Mr. Thor or other Avengers have taken you to a safe place, and the wound on your left arm has also been healed.

Sir, I love you.But I'm sorry, I clearly promised to accompany you for the rest of my life, but I have to break my promise.

There was a reason I said that time was running out that night, and I guess you won't be satisfied with my explanation of the problem either.Now at last I can get to the bottom of the matter, though I'm sorry I can't tell you to your face—you know, I'm almost suffocated not to tell this secret! ! !

This star is a strange star. Do you know why Uncle Ben's wound suddenly deteriorated and died; and your wound has no signs of healing in this place, but it has not deteriorated sharply?Because the time of the complete organisms on this star is static for six earth months, or it flows very slowly. After half a year has passed—generally, after a rainy season ends, time will suddenly move forward rapidly. , these days I call them "transition days", all the wound deterioration and tissue growth will completely explode at this time, and that's when Uncle Ben died... I think this is also why animals are so hard on this star The reason for reproduction, after all, there are no wounds and diseases that can survive the untreated state and outbreak for half a year.So, we have to leave within a month, but that's impossible, I've asked you!Even if we don't slow down time, we won't be able to get away.

So don't be sad!Please don't be sad!

...sometimes I think, we'll just stay on this planet together until today, "until death do us part"...

But that would be so selfish.

Tony Stark is my love, he is also the wealth of the world.

Sorry my sir, sorry.I hope you are safe and healthy and able to find a better... life.How much I want to show you the lake during the transformation period, the large "space forget-me-nots" bloom and wither at a speed that is difficult to catch with the naked eye, like light blue fireworks.

I love you Tony.

While an intrepid lover should probably say "forget me," I can't even write the words "could find a better lover."

Please don't forget me please.

Please don't forget me, like that flower...

Forget-me-not.

by Peter Stark

Tony couldn't speak, grief and anger gripping his mind and vocal cords.

He couldn't ask why... and couldn't shed tears, the pain came so suddenly that he was so exhausted that he couldn't even lift his arms.I don't know how long it took, maybe a few seconds or hours, Tony only knew that his headache was bursting and his heart was pumping blood like crazy, and the boy's appearance had been transmitted countless times in every nerve.He gritted his teeth tightly, almost subconsciously sucking in a big mouthful of air.

He couldn't see things clearly.

"I know I shouldn't be coming in at this time, but you're going to die if you go on like this." Thor opened the door and strode in. "Tony, you have respiratory alkalosis."

Tony adjusted his breathing slowly, but he didn't speak.

"I know you're sad, but you should take a look at this kid, Loki has stored his body in the nutrition pod - you can take a look at this first, maybe... there is another hope."

Thor is holding a small signal transmitter in his hand. The upper part is a familiar shape to Tony, but the lower part is a sky blue ball, in which complex data streams are rotating and intersecting. He looks Beautiful and mysterious.

"He's my 'forget-me-not'." Tony stared at the little thing for a long time, he held him in his hands, and kissed it carefully.

"I love him."

Thor sees something flicker in the man's eye.

But it didn't come out until the end.
