I Am Iron Man (MHA) Chapter 249: MCU Marathon (14)
🕑 Added 2025-07-25 19:48:32 +0000 UTC[Third person POV]
Thanos revealed that he had destroyed the Infinity Stones using their own powers, which nearly killed him, as he considered his work done and wanted to remove the temptation of using them again. Although suspected of lying by Rhodes, Nebula vouches for her father, as he is never a liar.
“Oh wow, look at that,” Melissa said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “At least he’s honorable. How great for all of us”
Surprised with the affirmation, Thanos reconsiders his torturous treatment of his daughter, but he is then immediately beheaded by Thor.
“Look at that. He learned his lesson… a little too late for that, don’t you think?” Melissa commented with a small pout, folding her arms as she leaned into the couch.
Although the Mad Titan is dead, they failed to accomplish their mission of resurrecting his victims and have no choice but to accept defeat.
“WHAT?!” Melissa shouted, nearly jumping to her feet as the time skip was revealed. “Five years?! Five whole years passed and they just… sat there? Did nothing?! No way. Stark must’ve done something, right?! There’s no way he just sat around doing nothing for five years.”
Tony sighed, giving her a sideways glance filled with exasperated amusement. “Just watch the movie. It'll explain everything. Patience, Miss Commentary.”
Five years later, the surviving population has yet to cope with their losses. Rogers now runs a support group for people to try and help them come to terms with what happened.
Tony pointed at the screen suddenly, leaning in slightly. “That guy right there? He’s actually one of the movie’s directors.”
Melissa blinked, then let out a short, amused laugh. “Wait, seriously? Heh, that’s funny.”
The scene transitioned to San Francisco, where inside an old storage unit, a rat crawled over the control panel of the Quantum machine left behind in the van Dyne family’s abandoned van. As luck would have it, the rat activated the machine, and Scott Lang was launched out of the Quantum Realm and back into reality.
Melissa slowly turned her head, locking eyes with the side of Tony’s face.
“Don’t even say it,” Tony muttered, already predicting her next words. He didn’t even look at her, just kept his gaze glued to the screen.
Grinning mischievously, Melissa said, “I didn’t know Master Splinter had a cameo in this movie.”
Tony snorted and ran a hand down his face, shaking his head with a sigh. “God damn it…”
Lang wanders through the disheveled city and realizes something terrible has happened. He approaches the Wall of the Vanished, a massive memorial containing the names of everyone in the city who was killed in the Snap. He frantically searches it hoping to not find Cassie's name, only to find his own as no-one remaining knew what happened to him. Scott rushes to Cassie's house and finds that she is now a teenager. Father and daughter tearfully reunite.
“Awwww… Okay, that is so sweet,” Melissa said, her voice soft with emotion. Her hand clutched the nearest pillow, her eyes misty. “That right there? That’s the good stuff.”
“You’re way too sympathetic,” Tony muttered, giving her a teasing side glance.
“Wha– How else am I supposed to react?! The scene was created for a reason to get a reaction out of people, I'm the target audience” Melissa shouted in indignation.
At the Avengers Compound, Romanoff now commands the team as they perform various assignments. Rhodes informs her of a recent cartel massacre carried out by Barton, expressing his concern over how far their former comrade had fallen.
“Okay, can we just take a moment to talk about how good Natasha looks with red and blonde hair?” Melissa said, sitting up straighter. “That is such a look. I’m obsessed.”
“I know—” Tony began, only to stop mid-sentence as Melissa gave him a flat, warning stare.
“What?” he asked, slightly confused.
Melissa narrowed her eyes. “My admiration was not an invitation for you to join in. Do I look like someone who wants to hear their boyfriend talk about how attractive another woman is?”
Tony’s eyes mirrored hers, except his expression was more curious than annoyed. “Melissa… are you perhaps on your period?”
There was a long, stunned silence as Melissa blinked at him.
Without a word, she grabbed the remote and paused the movie.
“Why did you paus—AHHH!” Tony yelped, scrambling off the couch as Melissa chased after him around the room. The two raced in chaotic circles around the couch like a cartoon.
They shifted on their feet, circling each other like cartoonish predators, shuffling side to side with overdramatic footwork as they chased each other around the couch. Melissa, growing more daring, picked up speed and vaulted cleanly over the cushions with a wild battle cry.
“RAHHHHH!!”
She tackled Tony straight to the floor, the two tumbling in a heap of tangled limbs and laughter.
They rolled around on the carpet, half-wrestling, half-laughing as they tried to gain the upper hand. Between their chaotic flailing came Melissa’s gleefully unhinged threat: “Let’s see who’s really on their period! I’ll leave you so bloody people wouldn’t know at first glance who just went through their menstrual cycle!”
Tony let out a gasp-laugh, “Jesus, that’s dark!”
Their yells and squeals echoed through the room, blending apologies with cackles and shrieks. “I’m sorry!” Tony wheezed in between fits of laughter. “I take it back! Mercy!”
“Too late!” Melissa shouted, still giggling uncontrollably.
In a swift motion, Tony finally managed to pin her arms above her head, holding her down with a smirk as he hovered over her.
“I win~” he sing-songed smugly.
Melissa narrowed her eyes but smirked in return. Without missing a beat, she wrapped her legs around his waist and twisted her hips, flipping them over so that she was the one pinning him. She leaned down, her hands on his chest, her grin absolutely feral.
“Who’s the winner now?”
Tony looked up at her, amused and breathless. “I’ve got a beautiful woman pinning me to the floor while she’s straddling me… You tell me who the real winner is.”
Melissa blinked once, then let out a laugh. “Good answer,” she said, before leaning down and giving him a quick peck on the lips.
“You’re forgiven for that,” she added sweetly.
Tony immediately beamed. “Yay!”
Melissa rolled her eyes at the childish glee in his voice but couldn’t help the fond smile tugging at her lips. “You’re such a dork. An adorable one, but still.”
She stood and offered her hand to pull him up. “Come on, let’s finish the movie, you lovable idiot.”
With synchronized jumps, they both leapt back over the couch, landing with ease. Melissa got comfortable by settling herself on Tony’s lap, guiding his arms to wrap snugly around her waist. She leaned back against him, nestling in, and unpaused the film just as Scott Lang appeared outside the Avengers Compound.
Lang arrives at the compound and reveals to Romanoff and Rogers that although five years had passed, he spent five hours in the realm. He proposes that they could find a way to exploit the realm's time-bending nature to travel into the past and retrieve the Stones from different times.
“Wait, wait, what?!” she exclaimed, twisting slightly in Tony’s arms. “Are you kidding me? Ant-Man is seriously the MVP of the whole movie? And here I thought he was just comic relief! This man just gave them the key to time travel!”
Since the three have no knowledge with the handling with quantum physics, they seek out Stark.
As the scene changed to a cozy lakeside cabin, Melissa suddenly let out a sharp, dramatic gasp.
“GASSSSPPPPP!”
It sounded like she’d just seen someone get stabbed—and maybe inhaled half the room’s air in one breath. She smacked the pause button and turned to Tony in stunned silence.
The screen was frozen on a little girl while Stark took off the Iron Man helmet on her head, her eyes bright and curious.
Melissa’s mouth fell open. Slowly, she raised her hands and pressed them to her lips “He… he has a daughter…” she whispered in awe, before covering her mouth again, this time to muffle the excited squeal building in her throat.
Tony was already grinning at her reaction, completely charmed.
“Yeah, he does,” he said softly.
Melissa’s eyes were huge. “HE. HAS. A. DAUGHTER. ABAJDBSJABDB!!”
She lost all ability to form words after that and just patted Tony’s chest rapidly with both hands as if trying to slap her emotions into him. Her entire body vibrated as she squealed, hair flailing wildly as she whipped her head from side to side.
Tony braced himself with a laugh, shielding his face. “You’re gonna kill me! Stop flailing!”
“I can’t!” Melissa shrieked with a tearful smile. “She’s seriously so CUTE! Look at her! Look at that face! My heart is melting!!”
She clutched her chest, overwhelmed, while Tony shook his head, still laughing.
“God, you’re gonna cry, aren’t you?” he teased.
“SHUT UP! I MIGHT!”
