I Am Iron-Man (MHA) Chapter 74: Advance Quirks
🕑 Added 2024-08-15 00:17:11 +0000 UTC[Third Person's PoV]
Tony's lab was filled with the usual hum of machinery, but this time, the atmosphere was lighter as Tony sat across from his father, Howard, and David Shield. They looked noticeably younger, more muscular, and much healthier than before.
"Looking good!" Tony teased with a smirk, giving them both a thumbs up.
Howard flexed his newly toned muscles in response. "Heh, your mother couldn't get off me this morning when she saw me."
"Yuck!" Tony groaned, cringing. "You're disgusting, old man."
Howard chuckled, unbothered. "You can't call me that anymore. Look at me! I'm anything but old! Even the back pain from sitting in my office chair is gone."
David smiled, running a hand through his hair. "I'm just glad the bags under my eyes are gone, and my hair feels healthier."
Tony nodded, then shifted the conversation to the more pressing matter. "Shall we now test the most important part of this? Your quirks. I'm really curious about how they've evolved."
David volunteered to go first. "Let's do mine first since the evolution is much simpler and straightforward."
Without warning, David twisted his neck in a full 360-degree rotation.
"What the fuck?!" Tony and Howard exclaimed simultaneously, their faces mirroring each other's shock.
"A-Are you okay? You're not broken, are you?" Tony asked anxiously. "The last thing I want is to get into trouble with Melissa."
David laughed. "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just my quirk now. You know how my fingers used to bend in unnatural angles? Now apply that concept to my entire body. I'm extremely flexible, almost like I don't have bones."
"Is your skin elastic?" Tony asked, fascinated.
"I tried stretching it, but no, it's just my body that's really flexible," David clarified.
Howard grimaced. "Can you fix your neck already?"
David sheepishly straightened his neck. "Sorry about that."
Tony then turned his attention to Howard. "Now for you, we need to run some tests. Your quirk is a lot trickier to understand."
After running a series of tests, Tony stared at his father in disbelief. "What the actual fuck is your quirk, old man?"
Howard grinned smugly. "What can I say? We Starks are always born to impress."
Tony scoffed but continued with the analysis. "I think we need to rename your quirk. Your mind isn't just a regular computer anymore; it's a quantum computer. Your cognitive abilities have been boosted five times over. The way you can recall and process information is phenomenal, and you can store an insane amount of knowledge."
Tony continued, "You can probably develop an A.I. inside your head, though I don't recommend it. Your brain now accepts Wi-Fi, which means you could potentially hack into things, though that depends on your abilities. It makes you a minor technopath, which is absolutely crazy."
"The restrictions on your creativity have lifted slightly, which is good because it gives you some leeway. Your emotions have become balanced, allowing you to think logically without losing your feelings or becoming a sociopath. The only drawback is that if you process too much information at once, it could overload your brain and put you in a coma."
Tony concluded, "For the first time, I'm a bit jealous of your quirk, but not really."
Standing up, Tony patted Howard's shoulders. "I'm going to abuse the hell out of you during the two-day break I have from school."
Howard's smug smile faltered. "What?"
Tony just smiled, his mind already racing with ideas. "That beautiful head of yours is going to be put to wonderful use, old man. Wonderful things."
Howard's face twisted in confusion and concern. "Tony, you're scaring me."
But Tony just shook his head as he walked away, muttering to himself, "Beautiful things…"
Howard exchanged a worried glance with David, who just shrugged. Their concern grew as Friday interrupted Tony's thoughts. "Sir, it's Ms. Yaoyorozu. She has come to visit and is waiting by the front door," Friday announced, showing a holographic video of Momo standing outside.
"Ah, bring her in and direct her to my lab," Tony instructed.
As Howard nudged Tony, he couldn't resist teasing, "Seeing as you're inviting her to your lab, she must have gained your approval and trust. She must be important to you. Perhaps you've taken the Yaoyorozu's little miss for yourself as well, alongside Melissa—you know, making a little harem."
"You better not have," David interjected with a glare.
"I haven't and I'm not," Tony said, rolling his eyes.
"Good," David nodded in approval, relaxing slightly.
Moments later, Momo's voice echoed down the hallway. "Tony, what did you give me!? I had to up the size of my clothes—Ah!" Momo froze mid-sentence, realizing Tony wasn't alone.
Momo, now taller and with a more toned physique, wore casual clothing but looked slightly embarrassed as she noticed the company. "Sorry, I didn't know you had guests," she said, a bit flustered.
"Don't worry," Tony said casually. "That's just my dad and Melissa's dad, Howard Stark and David Shield."
Momo quickly composed herself and introduced herself with the elegance she had been taught since childhood.
As Howard shook her hand, he smiled warmly. "I must thank you for looking after my boy and letting him stay with you during that time."
"Think nothing of it. I'm the one who should be thanking you. Tony has been taking care of me alongside Melissa since we were young," Momo replied with a polite smile, shaking David's hand as well.
Momo then looked towards Tony, unsure if she should discuss what she came to say in front of his father and David.
"Don't worry about them," Tony reassured her. "They're here for the same reason you are, although I already tested their quirks."
"Wait, Tony, you gave one to her as well?" Howard asked, raising an eyebrow.
Momo looked down, hesitant to meet Howard's eyes.
"Wait, don't take this the wrong way," Howard said, noticing her discomfort. "I know he gave one to you because he trusts you. I just want him to be careful about who he gives things to," he added in a reassuring tone.
"Like you said, old man, I trust her. That's why I gave her one. I wouldn't just hand them out willy-nilly," Tony said, rolling his eyes.
"I know, but I just want you to be careful, son," Howard replied seriously, earning a nod from Tony.
"So, shall we begin testing what your quirk can do now?" Tony asked.
Momo quickly nodded, still marveling at the changes she felt. "What I'm most surprised about is my own strength," Momo muttered, looking down at her hands.
…
"Your quirk has evolved into something else, Momo," Tony whistled in amazement.
"Even I'm amazed," Howard added, equally impressed.
"Let's break it down," Tony began. "The amount of lipids you use to create something has been cut in half, which is fantastic. The speed at which you produce items has also increased. Plus, you don't get as fatigued as you used to.
"Now, the most amazing development—you can convert anything you've ever created back into energy for your body, although it only gives you back half of what you used to make it.
"And now that the Serum has enhanced your mental capabilities, you should be able to create more complex items in a matter of seconds, when before it would have taken you much longer."
Tony walked up to Momo, who was beaming with pride at her quirk's advancements. He smiled with his eyes closed. "I'm going to abuse you, Momo."
"What?" Momo said, her smile dropping in confusion.
*Smack*
"Ow!" Tony yelped, holding his head and glaring at his father. "You just hit my most prized possession. I know you want to bring me down to your level, but that's not the way to go, especially with your enhanced strength!"
"I understand making that joke towards me, but don't say that to a woman!" Howard reprimanded, shaking his head.
Rubbing his head, Tony looked at Howard in confusion. "Who said anything about joking? I was being serious… I'm going to abuse the living shit out of both your quirks. So don't think about leaving my lab today. You are both about to pay me back for the things I've given you"
"But I thought this was a gift for being on your team during the sport festival?" Momo asked curiously
"No offense Momo, but even you have to agree that what I have given you is worth much more than your partnership"
