Tony considered it for a moment. "It probably means we just have to map the brain better," he said, shrugging a shoulder. "Just because thousands of scientists before us couldn't do it well, doesn't mean we can't figure it out together."
It could be very abrupt, how he switched from competative to cooperative. But he did switch, and in all seriousness he wanted to be part of Annie's success, even if he had to put his own aside once in a while to achieve it. "We can start by mapping out my brain, though we should get a few normal humans too. You know, to make sure their limitations are accomodated."
He let out his own chuckle, then stopped anything she might say with another kiss. "But we can't get too involved in this. We need at least one night to catch up. I feel like I haven't seen you in ages, and that's just unacceptable. We'll have dinner tonight, when we've worked out the kinks in your simulations. And then we'll both get a decent night's sleep." And she had to know him well enough by now to know sleep didn't come before other means of reconnecting.
