Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

...that's weird.Very strange.

Clark took a long breath.He straightened up and rubbed his face... It was weird.Is it because he gave up on the dead end... Why does he really feel relaxed at this moment?

"Thank you, Tony."

Little Kent lowered his voice.His attitude was very sincere, as if he had really been persuaded—this was an impossible task.After all, after going through that long day, Superman has completely determined that he is completely different from the perfect savior, the "Superman" that everyone expected-and he will not work hard in that direction anymore.If you can't do it, you can't do it.He's willing to admit that he's not good enough...

Professor x thinks he is very good.Nick Fury is still willing to believe him.Even Batman that night...but none of that convinced Superman.None of them could persuade the son of Krypton to believe that he was still a good person.Believe in yourself 'fine'.

— but Tony Stark was different.

"I'm really touched, I don't know why you think that... I'm a nobody, Tony, you're the good guy. I... I'm just good at pretending to be a good guy."

The Son of Krypton grabbed his forehead hair, and he suppressed his shame in a low voice.

"Something that happened recently made me think a lot. I did go down a lot of dead ends... even until you just said it all started with 'desire'... I was looking at it in a very narrow light Those questions. I... I avoid this too much."

"It never occurred to me that I had the emotion 'desire' - I never considered that a lot of times we don't actually act to be 'right', but simply because we want to..."

...I want to kill the clown.

……Yes.I also want to hurt, I want to hear them cry—I want to hurt them, I want to scare them—it doesn't come from justice at all.This is just giving vent to my desire to destroy.It's just...just my 'desire'.

Clark Kent's dejected look made Tony Stark feel a little helpless.Iron Man turned his head away and sighed softly. He hissed half complaining and half pity, and brought Clark's attention back.

Iron Man rolled his eyes at the worried Superman.

"Do you know how I feel now, young man?" Then Mr. Stark scowled again.His serious 'condemnation' with. "What did I hear from your few words just now? Guess what, Mr. Kent?"

Tony's words were humming.But the strange thing is that his tone is very severe.Iron Man stared at Clark through the screen.His big brown eyes urged firmly...but the blue-eyed 'little lamb' still looked at him in a puzzled and trusting manner... Tony couldn't help but soften his heart again.

— This is really strange.Very strange.

Iron Man's expression softened.The complex emotions and strange throbbing are fleeting.Mr. Stark is actually not very good at expressing affection.He is actually very similar to Bruce Wayne. These two playboys who lost their parents early on are both very good at hiding their sincerity with "I don't care"...but it can be said that they have almost completely lost the ability to love Compared with the original Batman, Iron Man is still more and more honest when facing the things he cherishes.

Tony looked at Clark.Looking at this rough gem, looking at the rarest treasure in the world - looking at this kind, brave, gentle young man...

"...I look at you and I feel like a student who worked so hard and only got a B (which would have been impossible for me, I'm a genius you know) looking at someone who also worked really hard and got a B The classmate who finally got an A. But this classmate A has higher demands on himself, and he really wants to get an A that hardly exists."

Iron Man wants to be as light as possible.He didn't want to show it too much - he was too embarrassed to let little Kent understand how much he touched him.He was ashamed to let Clark understand how much he had protected him that day...—and Tony Stark changed the subject immediately.

"So that's what I mean, see Clarke? While it's good for young people to demand a lot from themselves, just be clear - although it sounds a little strange to someone as perfect as me - no one is perfect Yes. Nobody can, you know my dear?"

"You shouldn't be too hard on yourself, little boy. Don't reflect on whether you are not good enough because others are not good enough. I will not make friends with people who are not good enough. You have to trust my vision, you know?"

……

"...Clark?"

Superman froze.He looked at Tony Stark, who was a little embarrassed on the other side of the conversation, in astonishment and disbelief.The Kansas teen blinked—not sure if his eyes really hurt.

...It's just, so weird, so incredible.

—He's Clark Kent.

...he was still just Clark Kent.

Tony had no idea he was Superman! ! —Tony wasn't looking at him the way Superman was at all.And he, he's just ordinary, mediocre Clark.Why, why do you think so?Why do you think I'm good enough?

……no no.

Thank you.Thank you for thinking just Clark Kent is good...thank you.

—I should really believe you.And I should really try to live up to you——

"Thank you, Tony."

Clark Kent hung his head.His voice was strangely low, not as brisk as usual, but it was by no means low.This short sentence, as cold as a sigh, but full of warm gratitude, rang in Mr. Stark's ears.It aroused goosebumps all over Iron Man.

Tony Stark stiffened.But Clark wasn't done yet.

"—Thank you very much." The young man raised his head.A smile so warm that it could melt ice once again appeared on his handsome face.The temperament of the Son of Krypton subtly changed at this moment. "Don't blame me for being clingy, Tony, I'm a very, very spoiled kid... I'll definitely try to get over that. Thank you so much."

... It's okay if you don't change it.

Really.

Mr. Stark moved his throat.I don't know why I didn't tell the truth about this joke.He looked at Clark Kent in surprise.The young man seemed to perk up and mature all at once—as evidenced by the sudden charm of the young man's gold-rimmed spectacles, which had been a bit old for the young man.

"You really helped me a lot, Tony. I feel better." Superman smiled. "If you were here with me, I'd definitely force a big hug on you - you're so kind, Tony."

……

The emotions of young people are really abundant.

Enough to be warmingly creepy.

——Then Iron Man coughed twice, trying to calm down his weird expression.The older one forced himself to regain his composure, and don't be disturbed by this kid's sticky words.It took about five seconds for Mr. Stark to look up again. At this time, he turned back into the expressionless and supercilious big boss.

But the smile on the big boss's mouth still shows that someone is different.

"Don't blame me for not telling you, Clarke, Jarvis is definitely going to be on tape - this is going to be your ringtone from now on. 'You are so kind, Tony!'  …You don't sound like a 22 year old Boy, I don't even think a 12-year-old boy would talk like that."

His slightly mean jokes didn't in the slightest worry the man on the other side of the screen.On the contrary, Little Kent actually laughed after imagining the scene.Tony looked at the boy who was carefree again... a strange sense of satisfaction rose up that could not be ignored.Iron Man raised the corners of his mouth even more, pretending to be cold and said:

"But allow me a disclaimer, dear Mr. Clark Kent - if you really take my word for it and worship me as your purpose in life - that's not a very good idea, for a kid like you It's too exciting and too 'restricted' for me."

Superman choked on this sentence, couldn't help but leaned against the white wall and rolled his eyes like Mr. Stark.He really seldom made such impatience-like movements, and he was inexplicably shy after turning over.

"I'm an adult, Tony. I'm twenty-two—and wrote you an interview." But then Superman frowned.He realizes that the way he speaks is indeed too… sticky. "Uh, well, no. I'm wrong. . . Once I get back to my parents' house I'm going to be a fool. Okay."

—Kansas is to blame!

...No no no, shouldn't Tony Stark be to blame?

Iron Man on the other end of the video rolled his eyes.He shrugged, then grinned too.Mr. Stark shook his head, indicating that it didn't matter, that it was even good.Then he cleared his throat and finally brought the subject back up.

"Hey, okay, let me try Mr. Kent, a young and mature reporter... Remember what I said when I called you at the beginning?"

Clark was stunned for less than a second before reacting.But Tony Stark opened the door before he could get the correct answer.Iron Man smirked at Superman twice:

"It seems that you still remember-I originally planned to pick you up to see this surprise. You went home. But it's not bad, it's just convenient to tell Mr. and Mrs. Kent about it"

"Come and see your sister's new store, Clark. Your friend and I are very efficient-speaking of which, do you want to meet Captain America? I invited him to cut the ribbon."
