Title: These Bloody Footprints
Author: kira / kiraboshi
Wordcount: 9.900
Rating: PG-13 (language)
Spoilers: Set a few weeks after IM2.
Notes: Written for the lovely cole_chan; this went out in email bursts to her, and we giggled over it while going deeper into Iron Man fandom. I wouldn’t have finished if not for her. Thanks to quicksilvermad & cole_chan for the beta, and mga1999 for helping when I got stuck.
Summary: Each and every time he comes back like this, she wants to find something heavy and hurl it at his head, hoping it would knock some common sense into him. But the fact of the matter is, he doesn't have anyone else. She knows that just as she knows he could never give up his mission.
( The sounds of explosions and gunfire are deafening, even through the audio dampening built into the helmet. )
