There was no one to see when Tony staggered sideways across the cool tile floor of his lab and collapsed into a chair. The return of Silver into his consciousness was like a blow, and by the rattled silence within his mind, he was sure the other man felt the same. Silver and Tony had grown into a closely working partnership, and with a connection close enough for Tony to regularly term it a "Vulcan mind meld," being without it was a truly bizarre experience. Like being something so other than himself, and yet so like… not bad, but… bizarre.
For a moment there was a struggle without aggression as both men tried to stretch into the confines of a single body once more. Silver lifted his hands in front of his face, hardly noticing they were Tony's hands, and touched the edge of one thumb to his mouth, tasting for the divine purity of refined sugar that didn't reach his mouth. He stretched one foot experimentally and shifted his head to one side until Tony's ear almost touched his shoulder. One hand pressed flat into his stomach, as if sick… or hungry. Silver had no coherent thoughts for these motions, and Tony had no understanding of where Silver had been or what he had done.
As Silver's consciousness started to reassemble, and Tony had full control over his limbs again, the flat palms of his hands slid up to the curve of each collarbone. He was wearing one of his old rock t-shirts, the cotton fitted, familiar, and old. No harsh edges, no glimmers under his fingertips. No body at his feet.
What happened? Silver asked, silently.
Party. Hotel did something, Tony responded.
Both men were silent. The questions were there. Who were you? What have you done?
But neither asked.
