Maybe they should have foreseen this. Maybe they could have been more aware of their surroundings. Maybe they plain should have kept in mind that there is another being in the room - One that has already proven to be incredibly curious.
But nothing of these has been the case.
And as a result Jon crashes down along with Tony, landing roughly on the man's chest and inevitably knocking the wind out of both of them.
On the other side of the desk, the lizard jumps as well at the sudden movements and loud noises and initially runs to one side of the room, then up the wall it encounters there and continues to scramble around the ceiling in a clearly spooked manner before coming to a sudden stop on top of its nest-structure, staying entirely still after assuming a guarded stance. In the blink of an eye its color has shifted to match the nest and there it sits, cautiously watching again.
Jon lets out a wince as he starts to push himself off of Tony. The pain is temporary, he knows that. It still hurts and Jon is not a person that is grand or very willing to hide his suffering. He still finds himself more concerned with Tony and raises his head to check on him. "Tony? Are you alright? What happened?" No, he hasn't actually seen the lizard darting around the ceiling himself.
