It wasn't the first time, nor the last time that Tomoe was going to be furious with Tony Stark. It wasn't the first time that she was going to be aware of just how pointless said fury was going to be. But god help her, she was furious anyway.

She was a prideful thing and she knew it. And there was no faster way to set her into a rage than to step on it in some way, shape or form. And here and now? Insinuating that she was stupid was one sure-fire way to do it. Just because she was from a time in which the vast majority of the technology of this world hadn't even been dreamed of did not make her stupid. It absolutely did not--and it infuriated her that she could not grasp things quickly enough to function on a more regular basis. And now, of course, she had picked up English well enough to know exactly whens he was being spoken about. And exactly when she was being insulted.

Taking a deep breath, he stepped inside the kitchen and cleared his throat loudly. "You're gonna lose a finger if you keep that up." He said softly. Not really a reprimand, but merely a friendly warning. Truly it pained him to see her this angry. She hadn't planned on waking up in the future anymore than he had. Though he had a bit of an advantage in being a faster learner and the fact there was more technology during his time than hers.

I know you're not stupid. He told her in Japanese, though his accent still needed lots of work. "Don't listen to Stark. He's too use to being a jerk."
