This morning, our intrepid villagers awoke to a surprise of the nicer kind: A bundle of clothing left at the foot of their bed, tied with a bow. There is also a note: Put on your new outfit and join the festivities in the corn field next to the inn.

You may be thinking, what corn field next to the inn? The one that sprung up fully-mature overnight, of course.

In the middle of the field, villagers will find an autumn feast: Tables piled with harvest time food and drink, warm and rustic decorations, the day's sunshine fending off any chill in the air.

Tuck in and enjoy, villagers, but take note: Things often look different in the dark, and you might be one of them.

"Science happened. It's a thing." One of his best friends is the Hulk, Matt, a walking, talking tree is- weird but not weirder than that. From someone on the ground floor, though-

He can see how it'd seem bizarre.

A lot of it seems bizarre, frightening. Getting that hammered out, helping people feel secure in the face of enhanced in the world- that'd been difficult to wrangle. Still is. Here they're all on a levelish playing field and so far? no real bad eggs. Weird ones, but not bad.

He's not sure what'll happen if that changes.

"You're good?" He's not sure how to gauge that shit but- pride is a thing. "I'm pretty sure I'm the only one here with a tail wandering around, so you won't have to worry about getting knocked over."

Because that's what happened, not that he tripped. Or. Maybe he tripped, but the current story is he got knocked over. Makes Tony the Asshole, sure, but eases up a little on the 'oh fuck can't see in a strange place' issue.

“Yeah I’m good,” he hears himself say with confidence lacing his words. He swallows and nods. If he keeps telling himself that, he will be good eventually. Helping him feel less embarrassed about tripping up over things and actually thinking Tony was some sort of creature helps. And he’s got slightly more faith in humanity restored now that he’s met Tony Stark in person, so that can’t be a bad thing either.

“Thanks for your help.” No doubt something Matt will be saying in some capacity to multiple people over and over again.
