Comfort from Tony

The light blue cocoon exploded to scraps as Emma floated out, accompanied by mist surrounding her body. The mist covered her breasts and waist.

Her entire body was absolutely, incomparably beautiful and perfect. Her soft, light blue eyes, her long shimmering brown hair… Her long, slender legs…

Mmm… Maybe even Aphrodite would be jealous?

Ah, probably!

Emma smiled slightly, saying softly "Other than Tony and Pepper… The rest of you can leave. We only have so much food." Natasha said "Emma, we-" Emma waved her hand and other than Pepper and Tony, the rest disappeared.

Viktor sat next to Tony, who sat up on the table, saying "I…" he sighed and patted Viktor's shoulder wordlessly. Viktor smiled slightly and said "You know, Tony… I can only see gray now?"

Emma took Pepper and smiled "Let's go." Pepper sighed and nodded as they disappeared.

Tony looked at Viktor replying "It doesn't have to be all gray. I know you're hurting inside… We all are… I lost…" he paused before taking a deep breath, "I lost the kid. I brought him into this and lost him all the same. I have to live with that forever. He might've not been my kid, Vik. But I really truly do know how you're feeling."

Viktor laughed and cried "Do you?" Tony said seriously "Trust me. I know. Maybe not to the extent of you, but I know." he braced himself and added ruthlessly "But what's done is done and they're gone!"

Viktor grabbed his collar and slammed him on the table "Gone?! So you moved on?! Just like that?! Of course! It's not YOUR kid, is it?! It's not the flesh and blood that came from you! It's not the child you raised! How could you know what I feel!?"

He looked like a ferocious animal as he shouted "All I see is gray! Everything has no color! Do you understand! I have nothing! I lost my daughter! My precious little baby! And you're telling me to move on!? How could you possibly know what you're telling me to do!?"

Viktor cried and continued "I rewinded time over a million times trying to change this and save her! What did you do? A little picnic on a trashed planet!? Nanoseconds away from victory a million times! I've seen her turn to ashes over 200,000 times! My pain is worlds away from yours!"

Tony grabbed his hands and said seriously "Vik… It's okay." Viktor was savage and roared "IT'S NOT OKAY!" Tony smiled slightly, "Everything is gonna be okay." Viktor's hands trembled and Tony continued "You still have us. Your wife, Me, Pepper, your friends. Everything you worked for during your entire life. Everyone is hurting. I know how you feel but… It's okay now."

Viktor let him go and Tony grabbed him again, saying "Everything's gonna be okay…"

Viktor cried and collapsed into the chair, dazed.

Tony patted his shoulders and smiled sadly, comforting him…

Of course, Viktor knew that everyone would come back. How could he not? But seeing and knowing is very different from experiencing!

The despair in his heart from losing his daughter hit him too hard, he couldn't even think straight for 5 minutes let alone realize the situation.

Even Yao wasn't spared!

Nothing was left and Tony was trying to pick up the pieces.

Viktor was completely lost. He felt like he was wading through mud every single moment.

Power? He never wanted it. He only wanted to live in peace with his family! Just because he knows that something will happen does that mean that he has to prevent it?!

He didn't want to be a superhero. He didn't want to fight all the time. He didn't want to be the savior of the world!

He only wanted to live peacefully.

Nobody else wanted to let him!

Something was always going on.

Viktor and Tony went up to have dinner, Tony continuously talked to Viktor about random things, trying to get him to respond and distract himself.

At the same time, he was trying to comfort himself for losing the little spider.

Everyone was hurting, not just Viktor.

Tony didn't want to see him go down the wrong path and end up a super villain or something.

In the days following, Tony accompanied Viktor in the name of 'rehab treatment'.

Emma showed Tony the Hex Gate and the Sky Net program.

He was instantly attracted.

The group started to rebuild and pick up the pieces everywhere.

The rest went to space before coming back pale and bloodless.

They found out what Tony and the gang was doing and came to help. They didn't have anything else to do.

Viktor decided to draw something.

[Genos Schematics and Blueprints]

Viktor learned the knowledge and passed the rest to Tony and Emma, who then modified it and grabbed Nebula.

Nebula was a cyborg robot thing anyway, and she was due for an upgrade.

Anything to distract themselves.

And so, Nebula got a massive upgrade, transforming into an S-Class Hero!

Viktor put down the Hex Crystal mine in SWORD's backyard before Tony remodeled the entire floating HQ and SWORD HQ on the ground.

Hextech gauntlets were given to agents a long time ago and they started mining for Hex Crystals.

Viktor and Tony worked together to crack the runes and successfully created it.

The Hex Gate blueprints had relevant Hex Core knowledge after all, it wasn't that difficult. Not to mention, Tony and Viktor were basically Sorcerers Supreme in their own rights.

Magic wasn't too hard for them.

And so the whole world underwent a remodeling!

Viktor continued treating people as time passed.

In the first year, he got 2 draws and used them.

[Bell Jackpot- Ultimate Renovation Token x5]

[Telepathic Link]

Viktor gave the tokens to Emma and forgot about it, linking himself with her so that he didn't even have to call anymore.
