They weren't exactly scared the last time Tony was down to visit them, and he didn't have his suit then or now. He went slinking bashfully away, though, because it didn't feel like the best time to correct her about that role he didn't play anymore, and he was starting to have to feel his way along the wall as the light grew dimmer anyway. "I'd rather they didn't get close in the first place," he pointed out, with a rather pathetic sparkle of static around his tail. He still let it drift in first ahead of him when he found a recess in the wall, trying to at least sense the dimensions of the cave.
