People need to stop giving me ideas, seriously...

Title: Rudder Flubber
Series: Heavy Data
Rating: G?
Word Count: 233 words.
Genre: crack, fluff (er, for now, anyway...)
Betas: [livejournal.com profile] pandanoai  and [livejournal.com profile] jynx 
A/N: For [livejournal.com profile] the_oke , and her humorous Nightmares lists.
Series Summary: When the Iron Man armor refuses to fly and claims Tony's weight is the cause, Tony's determined to trim down.  But when distortion meets dangerous methods, Steve will have to step and prove to Tony how beautiful he really is.  (and could this summary be anymore smchaltzy?)
Chapter Summary: Tony tries to have a relaxing weekend, tries being the operative word.  With some Spidey/HT sneaking around.

Sometimes, on the weekends when there weren’t any earth-shattering evil overlords or bank robbers, Tony liked to sneak down to the garage early (early for him, anyway), put on the armor, and spend the day flying.

 

This was shaping up to be one of those weekends.

 

Or so Tony thought.

 

----Last Night----

 

“This is gonna be so sweet, Pete!” Johnny Storm kinda whispered, as he and Spider-Man left the elevator heading for Tony’s garage.

 

“You did not just rhyme with my name.”

 

“Just a little.”

 

“How do you do ‘just a little’ rhyming?”

 

“You work on your timing?”

 

Peter slapped himself on his forehead.  “Stop it.”

 

“Fine.  How are we doing this?”  Johnny murmured as he quietly approached Iron Man’s armor.

 

“We just put the disk in that terminal over there, and let it run for a bit.  That should upload the program.”

 

The computer whirred to life and the visor’s eyes flashed a few times before going dim again.

 

“Tony’s going to go nuts.”

 

“Hopefully he’ll think it’s funny, Johnny.”

 

“And if he doesn’t?”

 

“It’s a little too late to wonder about that, don’t you think?”

 

----Now----

 

Tony let the armor slide into place around him, enjoying the feel of the armor’s presence in his mind.  He prepared to lift off, deciding to head toward Madripoor when a screen popped up.

 

Error: Over Weight Proximity for Functioning Flight Coordination

 

WHAT?!!!”

What do ya think?  Do you want more, or do I need to be dodging tomatoes?

And, yes, I so used my Run, Fatboy, Run icon...

OMG YOU ACTUALLY DID IT. <3 Oh, those boys.

I'm not sure what I like better... how schmaltzy the intro was or the fact that you actually described it at schmaltzy.

Hawhaaaaaw, poor Tony! XD
Those lil' bastards are up to no good again...so we must find out what happens, yes? 8D More, more!

That was a splendid beginning, I mean, the general idea of the fic is awesome and the banter exchanged between Pete and Johnny is so dorky XD Ah, those boys...

Naw, that's cool, I was reading Marvel Adventures: Spiderman Issue Four. It's so hard not to slash them see that exchange after that.

Okay. First - JohnnyxPete, you definitely pushed a button there XD
Second - YOU MEAN BASTARS! You're gonna break his little plump heart by doing that! *whacks J&P*
Thirdly - Yeha! XD Give us more! This is gonna be great *^.^*

Oh yeah, I know what you mean - unless I on sugar rush, I can't do Tony!fun either, he's just too whumpable a character. He looks/reads so good suffering, no wonder marvel is constantly beating him up. *sighes*
But don't worry about the story getting to emo or teary, that's the way we like it! =^.^= And as long as Steve is round, Tony will eventually be okay - though, oh my poor Tony, having to cut down on chocolate, pizza, sugar, all the goodies ;_;!!! *whackesJ&Poncemore* Evil guys!
[But I'm really grateful for you using a sane explanation for the weight problem - I also wrote an arc circling weight problems once, but my 'brilliant' idea was worms being to blame... O.O° I got goosebumps just from writing it XD! brrrrh!]

(*giggle* Btw, the opposite could also be quite funny - Tony desperately trying to gain weight, so he can keep up with Steve's general uhm, bigness - yes, I am a sucker for tummies at times, lol!

Ah, it's was in my weirdom pairing Ares & Tommy [Yes, I've had a lot to explain where that came from ;]
There were four parts if I remember correctly, rather weird (who am I kidding), so if you value your sanity better keep from it ;)

This is really funny. Poor Tony's gonna become weight obsessed; every day getting in his armor just to be told he's overweight. I see bad, bad things in Peter and Johnny's future when Steve finds out what they did.

I'm sure Steve would still love Tony even if he became a fatty...
Tony: "Don't touch me..."
Steve: "But honey, this just means there's more of you to love!"
Tony: ::Sobs::
