Shell Bell doesn't get off the train immediately when they hit District Three. Tony has one last miserable speech to deliver, and the train will then stick around long enough for everything to be unloaded. Bell sits tight in Sherlock's compartment with the TV on, keeps her wits about her, and awaits cues from either Stark twin.
"Do you mean cute like a five year old or cute like I'm an exception to the people-who-could-beat-you-up criterion?" Bell specifies.
"Okay. I don't have much of a filter on little mannerisms like that. Acting five is often a good substitute for acting actually crazy, and it's also often easier."
Bell's stomach gurgles. "We didn't actually eat anything the entire time we were sleeping off the drugs," she observes.
When she can smell food, she follows her nose to where she has learned the kitchen to be.
"Sherlock is making risotto," reports Bell. "It'll be ready soonish. How are things going with your swag?"
"This generator and I are going to be very good friends," he says. "I'll be up in a few minutes; you guys can get started without me if you want."
"Okay. Also we have something fantastically awkward to tell you and I wound up with the job of issuing the speech but I think I'd rather say it with her in the room."
"...What, did you have sex or something...? Never mind, if you wanna tell me when she's there, tell me when she's there."
She is very glad that they didn't, because having Tony guess right that casually would have been mortifying.
