[ Tony scrubs a hand over his face, groaning as he waits for a reply, and hopes that for once the guy isn't actually asleep. His hours are more off than Tony's sometimes.

He'd almost be proud if he made a comment, but he's too much on high alert for it to really settle the way Barnes would want it to. ]

Upstate. Take a different route.
Can it be faster without drawing attention?

[The reply isn’t a good sign. He takes a moment to think. Then promptly responds:]

know a copter. won’t be missed. can fly dark. should be fueled.
23. best i got.

[ Tony has done a lot of questionable things in his time. He's done things for the wrong reasons and he's been trying, for years, to make it right. He's done things for the right reasons, and this is one of them---but it's bigger than he is.

People a lot worse than Hydra (funny thought that is) are going to be coming looking for this kid. He's up again now, pacing, and heading over to a computer to give FRIDAY instructions. ]

Do it. I'll have FRIDAY let you in past the countermeasures.
Stay sharp.

[Confirmation and he’s out the door, tugging on his gloves with his emergency kit slung over his shoulder. If Tony wants him there as soon as possible, then he’ll do his damned best to make it. There isn’t time to waste. He can finish dressing out of his civs while manning the chopper.

Wind currents aren’t rough tonight, which is good. Without any passengers and needing to accommodate for comfort, he makes good time. He signals FRIDAY on arrival, and lands a bit bumpy, but it’s of no real consequence. 22. Good show.

He hops out as the blades continue settling, duffle in tow, and makes his way down the path toward the facility.]

[ Laura woke up before FRIDAY even managed to tell Tony that the helo was in bound. She's up, alert, and he's working on calming her down. ]

Hey, hey, no, it's ok. He's just a friend. Nobody else is coming. You're safe here.

Come on, you don't need the pipe. [ He also knows she doesn't need it for other reasons, but he's keeping those to himself for now. He'll explain once he and Barnes are alone. His hands are out in front of him, and he's between the main door and the little girl. ] Let's put that down, huh?

I told you I had a friend coming, right?
