They weren't jealous. [ The cloak reaches out for a fist bump. They've got Tony's back. ] They were protecting you.
[ Because Stephen was out of his mind with lust and even if Tony had told him to stop he's not sure he would have. It still twists his stomach to think of how heavy an influence those beings had on him.
He is already practicing his resistances and strengthening his mental shields. Stephen won't be overwhelmed next time. ]
I am sorry for that. [ He sits up straighter and takes a deep breath. He's going to get this out. ] For losing control and basically assaulting you. I'm deeply grateful we can still be friends.
[ There's a little hopeful note at the end, like Stephen's not completely confident that they are still friends. They've been flirting but maybe Tony's just trying to be normal? ]
