That's slightly concerning. Should I be watching where I put my hands?

[His expression remains warm so Arthur knows that he's joking. Tony knows that Arthur is more serious than he is. That's part of what drew Tony to him. But that doesn't keep him from making jokes.]

I'm not sure becoming Rio food counts as taking care of her.

[relentlesstide]

[Arthur gives him a wry smile as he strokes Rio'era's neck gently.] I'll tell her you'd give her indigestion.

[definingfuture]

It's probably true. I'm pretty sure she doesn't want that much iron compound alloy in her diet.

[It's actually not really iron, but hey.]

Still worried?

[relentlesstide]

I can't imagine that would be very good for her, no. [He smiles slightly and rests a hand atop her head affectionately.]

Not as much, no. [Except the worries still linger, he just doesn't want to admit that in front of Rio'era and upset her.]

[definingfuture]

Well, don't be. She's fine. I think if we were looking at trouble, we'd know by now. Just make sure she doesn't eat everything in sight.

[He falters a little, but manages to go on.] She looks good. You're a cute family.

[relentlesstide]

I make no promises. [It doesn't do much to assuage his worries still, but he also doesn't want to say that in front of the turtle, so he just smiles wryly over at Tony as she tries to headbutt him affectionately.]

She does look good. It's nice to have her around.

[definingfuture]

None expected. [Tony smiles. He hopes it's reassuring.]

I believe in her. She's got you, so wherever she came from, she'll be all right now. I think Asti had the right idea, bringing us there.

[He doesn't completely trust their situation, but there are some things Tony does feel confident in. One of those things happens to be Arthur.]

[relentlesstide]

I think he did too. Even if it was a... large coincidence that we would find them. [He still can't trust it entirely, but it just means they'll have to eliminate Malicant before it can sink its claws into the infant turtles.]
