"I didn't say I was resigned." Tony clarified, even with Steve's tone shifting into something that was quite frankly pretty impressive with how high it managed to get. "But I'm a genius okay, and I don't say that to toot my own horn or anything, it's just facts. And I haven't been able to figure out how to get out of here yet, I'm still working on it, but I'm not letting being here make me crazy either." He explained after they got Steve's cigarette lit. "I'm not saying we're stuck forever, but for right now? Yeah we're stuck, and you can spend your time slowly driving yourself crazy while having a panic attack about it, or you can take a breath, and you can try and make the best of it while we figure it out." Which might be longer than any of them really wanted, and sure after this long Tony knew there were some of them that would be only too happy to stay, but he had a life he wanted to get back to, friends that he'd left behind, he wanted to get home too - just like Steve.
He frowned when Steve mentioned some thing with teeth, "Uh the thing with the teeth?" He asked frowning. "I mean I fought Fin Fang Foom, he's got a lot of teeth, but I don't think that'd be the first thing I'd use to describe him." Probably he'd go with dragon, you know? "In any case he's not here, and I haven't seen anything that I'd call a thing with teeth since I've been here. So I mean yeah? I'm not that freaked out about this place." The rest of it? The doors maybe, the multiverse in general, that could freak a person out, but the town? Not so much.
He huffed softly and shook his head, his question about when Steve was from had clearly taken Steve by surprise, "I had a smoothie actually. There might have been a little oil in it, Dum-E tries his best, but he messes up a little bit sometimes."
But after Steve had a moment to really hear what Tony was telling him, he managed to tell him where he was from. "Okay, 1985, cool. A little before my time, but you know, it's fine, that's what the year of the Nintendo, right?" He asked trying to remember the date. "So okay, you're from 1985, I'm from 2019. We've got a lot of people from different times here. This place - we've started calling it something like a pocket universe." He explained, or tried to at least, it was a lot to take in and even he didn't have all the words to really explain what it was. "It's self contained, in this world we're in, there is only the town. You walk through the woods and you'll come out on the other side of town, there is no traveling to other cities in this world. We're all just here together, making the most of it for as long as we're here."
