forth shot; video

[the feed opens up on a familiar mask, before panning back to Francis. he hasn't eaten, hasn't slept, since the jump, and it shows, both in appearance and the bitter, tired way he talks]

Figures you'd still be here. Everyone else is gone, but you stick around. [short, hollow laugh] Just like home, huh?

[he runs a hand through his hair, takes a deep breath, and properly addresses the network this time]

Yeah, so. I know he had some friends here, but Azari's gone. He wasn't in his pod. [man he just feels tired] Azari's gone, James and Torunn are gone, Chase is dead - are any of my Avengers still around? [and really, guys, do you want to be? bad track record going with his team right now]

Whatever, just figured I'd let you guys know. Gonna go patrol if anyone needs me.

[Tony physically flinches at that. And congratulations, he's floundering for a reply. He takes a moment too long to answer.]

James'? [Surely that was for someone who meant more to him than a pale imitation of the man who raised him?]

Are you sure?

Then why not just throw it away? [Why give him to him? This drunken wreck of a man? He's not saying no, he just doesn't understand.]

[Hastily:] I do!

[He had grown far more attached to James than he probably should have. People always let him down in the end and James had done the same by leaving, even if that was out of his control.]
