Tony Stark Announcing Her Nudity

As Kate sneaks around to make her way toward her quarters, her head down and heart pounding with embarrassment, she suddenly hears Tony Stark's unmistakable voice echoing through the halls over the Avengers' intercom system.

"Attention, Everyone!" Tony's voice booms, filling the corridor with its characteristic mix of humor and authority. "If anyone's seen Kate Bishop, she seems to have lost her clothes to America Chavez and is wandering around the building in her birthday suit. Someone lend her a hand before this turns into an HR nightmare. Oh.. and if you're hearing this. Happy Birthday Kate!"

Kate freezes in her tracks, feeling the blood drain from her face as Tony's announcement reverberates around her. The realization that the entire Avengers team and probably some support staff had just been informed that she was wandering around butt naked somewhere in the building hits her like a punch to the gut. She groans loudly, her hands coming up to cover her face in mortification. This was turning out to be the worst birthday ever.

"Kill me now," she mutters under her breath, her voice a mix of resignation and immense embarrassment.
