Okay, it's past 1:30 and I haven't written a thing.

I have, however, noodled around with this picture enough that I feel like it's shiny enough to stick on my own private t-shirt.

The problem with the "official" Iron Man tees is that they all feature, well, Iron Man, rather than Tony Stark. And I want Tony. Which probably makes me strange and somewhat shallow, but the image of him in that shirt doing that thing with his arm just slays me, so there you have it.

However. It hasn't been completely unproductive for me, writing-wise. I've been actively thinking about the story and where it needs to go. I have an ending in mind, which is always a plus--and which, I'm finding, is becoming more common for me. I'm generally a seat-of-my-pants writer who has no idea how I'm going to end something until I'm thisclose to done, but the last few stories I've had endgames in mind (maybe not right from the beginning, never that) pretty close to when I start the story.

*evil laughter* My poor hero.

Anyway. I've also figured out what kind of story this is: It's a Quest. Now I need to figure out what the elements of that Quest are, how long it will take him, and whether or not he gets a sidekick. Also, who the sidekick is and what happens to that person once the Quest is over and done with.

And I think I just got my next scene. HAH.

That movie was ALL about Tony Stark. Without RDJ, it would just be a guy in a metal suit.

The man is far more interesting than the superhero, in this case.

I also found out today why everyone seems to be so gleeful about it being Burger King that Tony went to after he got home. *dies* And now I'm gleeful too.

Seriously, RDJ is Tony Stark.

... OK, I'm missing something. Why Burger King?

Because the drive-thru at Burger King was where Robert Downey, Jr., had his Epiphany and decided to toss his drugs into the ocean. According to my sources on the interwebz, anyway, which are, of course, never ever wrong. ;)

Actually, that sounds kind of familiar. I remember reading an article about RDJ shortly before Iron Man hit the theaters, and that sounds sort of like the incident that was mentioned.... *ponders, trying to remember*

So either it's true, or a lot of media outlets have been similarly suckered. ; )
