[Charles waited patiently, already wondering how long exactly it would take to perfect something like that. How exactly it would be programmed and designed, how heavy or lightweight it could be, what potential weaknesses there could be, was this an intensely stupid idea period all clattered around in his mind, and he wasn't sure if he was enjoying the feeling of hope starting to settle itself in his mind, or if it would be all that more frustrating if it was taken away.
Tony's arrival was a decent interruption, stopping himself from overthinking it too much. He's sitting on the couch, and doesn't move to reach for the chair or otherwise do much of anything beyond smile politely at his inmate. He was in no rush to actually make the transfer, so as long as Tony brought it over within reach and left, he'd be fine. He didn't like having other people see him vulnerable, was tired of the sympathy and the awkwardness and the never knowing what precisely to do. He knew it came from a place of concern - especially back home, when they'd all been adjusting to the situation - but he didn't want to be seen as an invalid or a cripple, and he wanted to be able to do things himself without having to ask for help.]
