Who: Everyone!
What: Party/ Morale boost attempt
Where: Stark Tower
When: BACKDATED: Sunday Night
Rating: TBD
Progress: Open/Ongoing

Unlike the previous parties at Stark Tower, this one was noticeably less extravagant. For the night the security of the elevator has been removed, allowing partygoers to enter only the first floor of the tower. The entire level is decorated with simple red and gold lights, the atmosphere more like that of a lounge than an actual party. There is an ample amount of seating, from tables and chairs to plush couches and love seats. Unlike the previous Stark extravaganza, there are no waiters or servers walking around to serve drinks, but on the far wall is an open bar with an automated dispensing system in placement of a bartender. On the opposite wall are tables and booths for more private conversations, and the dress is casual. The event, in all, is much more intimate and 'cozy' than previous Stark gatherings.

(Please put the rating and status (open/closed and those involved) of your thread in the heading. Thanks!)

"Doctor Banner is a good man," Steve said and grinned when she mentioned that he wasn't very green. "That's a very good thing, and he does try to keep it to a minimum." It wasn't that the other guy wasn't needed or wasn't useful, but it was clear that the good doctor wasn't trying to enjoy his company all that much, and that was something the soldier could understand.

At the mention of the movies and her excitement about them he looked down, the smile fading to something smaller but not uncomfortable. People seemed to have loved the movies, and one day he'd have to resolve to sit down to watch them. One day, but probably not this one. "Doctor, it's okay. It's our lives, yes, but some of us led very public lives before then. Tony loves the attention, and I got used to it during the USO tours. Some of us were known to others through books, television, or movies. Your name is similar to one from books too, and I wouldn't be surprised if they asked you about it." The stories were classic literature and popular even in his day, but he couldn't say that he'd spent a great deal of time reading them all. His interests ran toward the more... tactical and strategic sort of reading.

She rambled though, and it amused him until she confessed a secret of sorts, and for that he felt bad. "Ma'am, you didn't have to tell me that," he offered softly, hoping to reassure her. "I won't ask you about it. You'll get used to us in time, we're not all bad people. It's an interesting group, but you're safe around these people. You might not get alone with other doctors, but you were a soldier once. We can always use more of those too."
