“Hi Tony. Long time no see. Can I have your heart?”
“Didn’t you get one off that Australian wizard?”
“Nah, Oz was a phony, but you’ve got a proper heart.”
“You realize I am kind of using it, and it isn’t exactly in great shape anyway, don’t you?”
“Yes, and you look after it rather badly – like me, you need a metal suit to stay alive.”
“Tin-Man, you are just a metal suit – there is no man inside you, and might I remind you that Iron is stronger and heavier than tin anyway.”
“Unless you get rusty.”
“I use my suit under-water a lot. You might have killed the witch by making her damp but it won’t work with me.”
“Oh, please give me your heart. Don’t make me fight for it. You can get help later from your relatives in Westeros.”
“They are not the same Starks, and they couldn’t help me if I was dead anyway.”
“Right, fisticuffs it is then. Queensbury Rules?”
“Don’t be as dumb as your brainless Scarecrow pal. I can fly, and fry you with my solar lasers. You don’t stand a chance. Make like your Lion pal and run away.”
“I guess you don’t know I started taking care of the old Witch’s flying monkeys. – Get Him Boys!”
“Hey, get them off me. I don’t want to be cruel to animals. I’m an industrialist.”
“You’re an arms dealer to be more specific, Stark.”
“Yeah, so is Bruce Wayne. Sue us.”
“We have been assigned to put an end to this nonsense. “
“Who the Hell are you?”
“I am Sapphire. My friend here is Steel. I suggest you stop all this before you both get hurt.”
“Great. The minerals and alloys have come to join in the fun. You do know I could get the rest of the Avengers here at any minute, don’t you?”
“We already took care of both John Steed and Mrs Peel. The party’s over. Go home.”
“Oh alright. Killjoys. – Fancy a pint, Tin Man.”
“Sure Tony, I’ll buy the first round. With any look, Robbie The Robot will be the pub and we can give him a good kicking.”
“You know, this could be the start of a great friendship…..”
