You agreed to fight someone without knowing why? [That's even more baffling, but okay. She has time for stories while she waits for him to get ready to fight.]
Okay so you wanted to blow up the prison because you don't like the mayor I guess???, I was like 'that's crazy and an awful idea and really we should make better decisions overall,' and you were like 'wow I'm going to do it anyways btw this conversation is over!!!' and then you didn't because I guess you worked stuff out with the mayor.
I want to fight so things won't be weird anymore. Like people suggested I talked to you about a thing, but I don't feel comfortable because we fought without facing each other so this time we'll face each other! Okay?
[More like she forgot about it until it was brought up again. Then she needed to do something about it as a proactive young lady who totally admires Iron Man so it sucked to argue with him. Better go fix it even if a month passed.
Anyways, Kamala is patiently waiting him out. It's slowly dawning on her she doesn't think he'll ever be up for this since seriously this guy looks like he hasn't slept in days when she gets his message. She looks to him, to the device, and back again. Is conflict resolution really that easy?????]
We're cool...? Definitely cool. You really don't hate me for telling you off?
Kid, if you never told people off I would be worried. Don't throw that back in my face the next time we disagree, by the way.
[He holds up his teapot.]
Tea? And you can tell me whatever it is you wanted to talk about. I'm assuming it's not to fix your toaster. At least I hope it's not about your toaster. Do you own a toaster?
[Okay yeah he's just going to pick a good spot on the floor to sit down and unstack a second cup from the cup he's holding.]
[Kamala nods, taking a seat next to him. This is by far one of the weirdest battles she's ever had. At least things are okay now??] I don't own a toaster. I'm trying to get a polymer made to help me with a medical condition. Super hard when you're living in a horror movie. Thanks to some awesome people I'll get the materials for like 75% of it eventually, but that leaves me stuck on the other 25%. Plus a place to safely make it. Plus a way to solve the problem with it dissolving in water.
[And just like that she is getting served tea. Tony passes over the filled cup. At the same time Kamala's post suddenly appears between them as an holographic image. Tony reaches out and starts flicking replies and text he doesn't deem useful out of the image and they spin off, disappearing.]
High school chemistry lab, is it. I'd like to meet this friend of yours. But write me a list. I probably have it. I also have a lab.
[His hand stills at the sight of Bucky's replies. He wasn't expecting it and the reminder Bucky's here hits him like a train. F.R.I.D.A.Y., get this out of my face. It's a subvoked command to her alone and the images all disappear.]
Between me and Shuri if we can't solve the water problem I'll surrender my diploma. Anything else?
[He says it like it's really that simple. Because for him it usually is.]

[Kamala watches with open fascination. The truth is she had no idea someone had this kind of technology here. She wants to ask him how he upgraded so fast. Sure she knows the stories of how he built his first suit from scraps, but this is something else. She sips her tea instead, wondering about his reaction to Bucky, but again not wanting to ask.
She types out the ingredients for the polymer with practiced ease. Bruno, as always, was smart to make her commit it to memory and thinking ahead in general. It makes her miss him more than usual.]
Sure! I don't think he'd mind if you promised to write him a letter of recommendation. Also I don't know if chemistry and nutrition is your thing, but I was talking to someone like me and they mentioned that we might need a supplement since we burn so much energy by being us. If we ever have a food shortage the two of us are kind of screwed. Can you make something like that?

[He has no idea really. But he's here! It's something, right??]

You've put a lot of thought into this
[Sipping his tea... He's not exactly in an hurry to get beat up. But also that was like a month ago, has she been sitting on that this entire time?]
But uh, okay. Here it is: you were right, I was wrong. I'm not angry with you. I didn't even realize I was supposed to be? Are we cool?
