"Can you give me some feedback?" Tony asked seriously.

So Petra looked away and started staring at a section of pattern rolled up in the table corner.Tony was a little uneasy by her unpredictable reaction, tapped his fingers on the table, and finally couldn't help asking: "Is it difficult?"

"Hmm..." Petra nodded slowly, and then said, "I feel lost in the future."

He didn't know how difficult it was, so he waved his hands and decided to let the topic go: "Think slowly, and then answer when you think about it."

Petra nodded, acting very well-behaved, and suddenly said: "I will not forget to prepare Christmas presents this year."

The tone is very serious, the eyes are very sincere, probably to make up for the negligence of last year.

Tony's heart skipped a beat.

He just hinted at the same excuse, believing that with the girl's delicate mind, it is impossible not to understand... In other words, she has actually given a negative answer.

Petra didn't want to join the Avengers.

At least, she doesn't want to stay here as an Avenger, as for the others...

This choice also seems to be expected.After Tony figured it out, he sighed slightly in his heart, and didn't show much disappointment, just simply oh.

"Very good, very good." He nodded approvingly.

It didn't take long for the snow to stop, and it was not time for dinner.

Once again, they were caught in the difficult choice of ordering takeaway or trying their luck in the kitchen. Petra tactfully refused Wanda's request to stay.

When she came, she wrapped Terry in a plush coat, and when she returned, she had already changed it into a sweater that Vision had ingeniously woven, then wrapped the scarf around her neck, and wrapped the other end around her hand, as a A simple dog leash.

Several people watched as a ball of plush spider girl led another ball of plush, drifting away on the snow.

Vision suddenly asked: "Sir, have you invited Miss Parker this Christmas?"

"Oh, what are we doing this year?" Tony asked absently.

Vision thought about it, and it seemed that there was nothing special in the past. He tilted his head and turned his gaze to Wanda.However, for Wanda, who lacked a childhood life, such things as "entertainment activities" are too ethereal.She thought for two seconds and gave up.

"Whatever," she said with a smile, "as long as I'm with my friends, I think it's fine."

Tony was noncommittal.

Now that he is at the Avengers base, he will naturally not invite the gentlemen and celebrities he used to deal with in the past, but he also does not want to bring guys like S.H.I.E.L.D. to get in the way.Since it is Christmas, making yourself comfortable is a leisurely consideration.

After thinking about it, he said, "Call those kids over here."

Christmas Eve is here in the blink of an eye.

Mei worked hard for two days, and Petra finished decorating the Christmas tree at home.She straightened her sleeves, admiring the results while recalling the scene of last year.

It was the first Christmas without Ben, and she couldn't help sighing softly, feeling that a year had passed before she knew it.

Then it's time to prepare the food.Mei didn't forget to ask her niece before she started, "Are you going out tonight? Did your friends invite you?"

"...Yes." Petra was sitting by the Christmas tree tinkering with a gift box. After hearing this, she paused before replying, "However, I told them that we will meet again tomorrow, and I will spend tonight at home."

Mei smiled and thought again, Christmas Eve for the two of them was still a bit deserted.

Petra didn't care much about these, and after sorting out the gift boxes, they tied them to the Christmas tree one by one.

Terry accurately distinguished the smell of canned food from these boxes, stepped on the stool and jumped quickly, jumped down with a box in his mouth, trotted into the corner behind the sofa, and started to attack the wrapping paper.

The gift for May is a hand-woven scarf hat, which is the most popular style this year. It took Petra a lot of work to learn it, and she thinks the finished product is not bad.Looking at Mei's reaction, it really was perfect.

Later, Harry, Danny and his party came to visit one after another and took away their gifts by the way.In the dead of night, after Mei finished cleaning the living room, she accidentally looked up and found several boxes under the tree.

"Ned and Flash's, they have other activities at home, I'll give them tomorrow," Petra explained.As for the last one left, she hesitated and untied it herself.

The small box looked very inconspicuous. Petra held it in her hand and played with it for a while. Seeing that Mei had been watching curiously, afraid that she would ask, she quickly stuffed the box into her pocket and took it back to the room.

It was rare to go to bed early, and Petra lay down on the bed, not feeling sleepy.She rolled twice and heard the sound of fireworks in the distance. She got up and looked out the window. It was the suburb of the city. The direction she looked should be the villa area of ​​the rich.

For them, the night has just begun.

Petra yawned and was about to lie down again.As soon as she turned around, she heard two soft sounds from the window frame: knock knock.

Certainly not a prank.

Petra's heart beat a beat slower, and she turned around slowly. At the same time, a tall shadow slowly rose under the window, blocking the moonlight and casting a hazy shadow.

She approached the window sill, looked at MK47, not sure if there was anyone inside: "Uh, hi."

"Good evening." A man's casual voice came from inside. The visor has not been opened, and it is estimated that there is only this empty shell of steel.

"Are you interested in coming out to play?"

Petra hesitated for two seconds, then nodded.

She jumped out of bed quickly, reached out and clasped the bracelet on the table to her wrist, stepped on the back of the chair and jumped onto the window sill.In the blink of an eye, the pajamas were covered by the rapidly spreading liquid battle suit.

After the window was pushed open, MK47 turned around and motioned for her to come up.

Petra carefully circled its neck, and then was swept up by a gust of wind, and her body rose rapidly, rushing to the sky.

There are fine snowflakes floating in the air, blown everywhere by the wind.There are very few pedestrians walking on the street, and they are all wrapped up thickly, hiding their faces in hats and scarves to resist the cold attack.

Thanks to the warm function of the suit, Petra didn't realize it, but took this opportunity to enjoy the snow scene of New York City.

After a while, they landed on a high place.She jumped off MK47, and she felt the familiarity without looking carefully—it was the former Avengers building sold by Tony.

Today, the iconic letter A has been disassembled and temporarily left empty. I don’t know what it will be changed by the new owner.

The roof of the building may not be the highest place in New York, but it is enough to overlook the whole city.Petra took a few steps around the edge of the roof, and was blown back by the sudden severe cold wind.

MK47 flew up again and landed on the platform below, then the floor-to-ceiling windows were opened from the inside, Tony walked out, and when he looked up, he saw Petra lying on it and looking around.

He raised the glass of soda in his hand and motioned to her.

Petra stuck the spider silk to the wall, turned over and jumped down, controlled the length of the spider silk, and let herself slowly stop on that small platform - it used to be the entrance and exit specially provided for the steel armor, and there was a shelter above it. The rain board just blocked the cold wind and snowflakes for them.

"The Coke you wanted." Tony sat beside the fault as if nothing had happened, putting the Coke beside him.

Petra also sat down, looked at her feet subconsciously, a little dazzled, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.There was a steady stream of heating behind her. She looked at the woolen coat on Tony's body, thought for a while, and put away her battle suit.

"Wow." Her hand was frozen as soon as it touched the glass, and she whispered, "It's so cold."

"I drink iced Coke in winter." Tony said calmly.

Petra tremblingly picked up the cup, touched the bubbles on the edge with her lips, mustered up the courage to take a quick sip, and her whole body trembled.

She originally wanted to ask Tony why he asked her to come out—what could be done on top of a temporarily abandoned building? ——In the end, I was interrupted by the ice-cola, and I forgot all about it, thinking about how to solve it wholeheartedly.

At this moment, Tony asked unhurriedly, "Where's my gift?"

Petra touched her pocket subconsciously, um, it's still there.

She put her hand in her pocket and didn't take it out for a long time.

"Let me say it first," Petra said cautiously, "don't laugh at me."

Tony raised an eyebrow.

"Chocolate, candy, etc.? I wouldn't say a word if you made it yourself." He said solemnly.

"Uh... not."

Petra finally took the gift box out of her pocket, subconsciously wanted to hand it over, but remembered something, and put it on the ground.

Tony gave her a thoughtful look.

The ribbon was not tied very tightly, so he unraveled it with a flick of his hand, and then opened the lid.

"……Wow."

The man whistled.

It's a figurine-like little Iron Man that seems to be made of tin.

Tony picked it up and put it in the palm of his hand, and observed it carefully: "You made it in the laboratory?"

Petra nodded and added: "It can fly."

"Can you still fly?"

She excitedly showed him the buttons on the back and the details of the joints of the limbs: "Here, here... Press it, it will pop out..."

Two pairs of wings popped up from the back of the figure, fluttering like a butterfly.

Tony: "..."

"I tried my best!" Petra said seriously.

She was made according to the latest battle armor developed by Tony, but it is definitely impossible for a small toy to use any jet flames, so it can only be slightly modified...

"No, it's interesting," Tony said, adding, "It's still very girly."

"...that's not a butterfly."

"I know."

Petra looked into his brown eyes, blinked, and asked, "What about mine?"

"What do you want?" Tony asked with a smile.

Petra was at a loss for words, and said after a while: "Is it okay to want anything?"

She felt a little too much.

But maybe they don't think so.

"Let's talk about it." The boss of Stark Industries made a gesture of "there is nothing in the world that I can't sell".The next second, he was stunned.

The nimble spider girl approached quickly, kissed him on the cheek, her eyes sparkled, and she quickly hid away.
