Tony did not hide his surprise at the notion of yet another apocalypse theory, but his expression was not tinged with scorn. He knew the scorn all to well, and it did little good, even if the man was mad.
He allowed himself to imagine it were true if only to prepare himself. What would he do? Was there anything he could do?
He found a lack of concern in his mind, which perturbed him. He did not feel a sense of impending doom or depression. Certainly, he wished no harm on the billions of innocent lives that could be destroyed, but found the thought of 'the end' was met with apathy. It seemed that his world had already ended once, what was a second time to him?
After a moment he leaned forward, taking the still-warm cup of coffee into both hands, knitting his fingers around it. There were always apocalyptic theories, particularly around religious groups, and Jensen James had had enough stress in his life to crack him. However, Tony did not dismiss it out of hand. He was far from convinced, but the emergence of the 'Sickness' and strange creatures such as Michael and Jensen had told him about certainly deserved his attention.
Jensen looked ready to be scoffed at - as well he might, Tony supposed - but when he replied it was sceptical but thoughtful. "Many have claimed such things before,"
it was redundant, but Tony wanted more information, and to do that meant expressing his doubt. "What makes you so certain? These...abilities... are certainly something new, but there must be more, surely?"
Jensen had been on the verge of suicide not weeks ago, cursing his power as that of evil, something had happened to change his mind. Something big, and Tony intended to find out.
