ANYTHING OF NOTE?: While Tony was initially less than stellar as a parent figure, bribing his squidge with fattening chocolates, stuffing him in a iron suit that deprived him of physical contact "for his protection", and taking him into dangerous situations, he actually grew insanely attached to the little guy. When Pepper showed up, she pointed out some of the flaws in his parenting approach and he did make some adaptations, letting Sparky out more so that he could adjust to life without the suit that he would no doubt grow out of anyway after he was released, and even showing it more affection thanks to a conversation with Gil. He started to realize that he was being a shitty dad like his own, and that horrible moment of realization left him unhappy with the idea of giving up Sparky at the end, thanks to his own abandonment issues.

ICly, he wants to try to sneak the little guy away, rather than leaving him without his 'father', but I recognize OOCly this is likely not possible. Either way, I thought I would state his intention, and find out how you would best like it handled - anyone is free to catch him in the attempt and thwart him. Otherwise, on the off chance he can succeed at doing this, I'm fine with whatever consequences this might bring about for him/Sparky/the mission as a whole.

Not long after he arrives back in Oska, Tony receives the following information:

Sparky is daring and adventurous, much like his caretaker, and despite Tony's initial approach, seems very happy in adulthood. Not afraid of heights like many of the others and able to float, he often finds his way to higher, more inaccessible areas to scout for the rest of the group. His vision certainly helps as well, and his speed makes it ideal for exploring in case he needs to make a quick getaway. He's quite popular among the other squidges, perhaps having picked up some charisma from Tony.

(We apologize for the delay; please feel free to assume he was thwarted.)
