He sits back in his chair, relaxed and a tad aloof, as she joins him. Don't let it fool you. He's interested in getting to know her, but he was a little wary of her too. Just who was she and was she aware of the affect she was having on Peter?

At the news he owned 'Starkbucks', he got an amused smirk on his face. Of all the insane things he'd been learning in the last day or so, that one was just plain funny. But really, why not? He certainly had the resources and it was a booming business. very lucrative. Hearing he'd also been responsible for firing her was also pretty amusing, though he was sure the Tony of her world didn't even know it had happened.

It only gets uncomfortable when she mentions a privately military group. He takes a few moments to think that through before replying. "Technically, I do have a private military group. It's called the Avengers. I don't personally own them but I'm apart of them as is War Machine, a fellow members code name when using a suit similar to what I wore earlier. At least.. he did until.. something happened and he was grounded." There was guilt and pain on his face for a moment before he was able to shove it aside. "And my family fortune came from the weapon industry, primarily for the military. It.. uh.. it's one of the reasons I have spent so much of my life and fortune working to better the planet. A bit of atonement, if you will. But it's also something I just want to do. It hasn't always worked out.. but I've tried to keep the world safe and better than it was."
