[Tony is sitting in a chair, feet propped up against a table with a drink in one hand. He's still avoiding those dreadful jumpsuits so he's dressed in one of his fancy suits instead although it's a little rumpled as he has no idea how to iron. Looking at him, you wouldn't be able to tell that he's barely keeping himself together.]
You know what I miss?
Good alcohol. Scotch, whiskey, a martini. This stuff is good enough to get drunk on, but still disappointing.
So let's barter. I'm sure some of you out there have something decent in your possession. I can build you a personalised nanite fleet, portable teleporter and/or force field, dimensional gate, super-soldier exo-suit, Thor's hammer-- actually scratch the hammer, weather manipulation in an enclosed space is just stupid, for the really good stuff and in large quantities.
For the lesser stuff you can choose between a weapon of your choice provided it's not something like a nuke, your very own pet Wall-E or some other small trinket, coffee machine, whatever.
Everything is negotiable and if you have something specific in mind feel free to ask. I also reserve the right to not do business with you for whatever reason.
[It means anyone wanting something that could be used as a weapon beyond a simple gun or sword will be scrutinised heavily. Also any of the big stuff will have built in safety mechanisms so he can shut it down remotely if the need arises. He doesn't really see anyone actually fulfilling his criteria for the big stuff, but he's crossing his fingers.]
The offer is open indefinitely and I'll probably have something up on that noticeboard.

And just as an addition. I realise with the whole different timelines and all, not all of you would know about this. Clint knows already, but I'm sure you've all wondered at one point or another why someone like me is in this business.
I'm dying. [He looks incredibly relaxed as he says this and taps the side of his head.] Brain tumour, inoperable. Blah blah blah. I figured I'd go out with a bang. It's gone into remission a couple of times which is the only reason I'm still around, but it's back right now.
This isn't the important part.
[Speaking off camera.] Come over here.
[A young boy walks into view dressed in a suit just like Tony, basically imagine Tony as a child. The important thing to note here is that he is rather ghostly.]
This is Anthony, he's my tumour. Say hi, this is my team.
[Anthony smiles and waves at the camera.]
He's also a technopath. So any questions?

I'll trade you a full bottle of the bar's best space whiskey in exchange for a Wall-E.
[ sorry Brian, this is so worth it. plus they've got another bottle under the bar. ]

Do you know the details about vintage and so forth?
[But if it's from a bar, that sounds better than what he's been finding. Consider him interested.]

When would be a good time for me to drop by then?

I got it in my locker a few jumps ago, and it's sort of become my work uniform. Makes it easier for people to find me. It was between that and a top hat.

[What are you even going on about now...]
So one Wall-E in exchange for the bar's finest. While confirmation of quality is still to be done, this sounds like a pretty good deal.

It sounds like an awesome idea. Whenever you'd like to come pick out a bottle or whatever, feel free to stop by. We don't really have operating hours or anything, it's just- open. One of us will be there.
