Tony hated doing this to the kid. He knew Peter's healing powers would kick in soon though whether his skin was where they wanted it to heal or not. He wasn't going to let the boy's hand get marred permanently if he could help it. He knew this wasn't fair though. No one should have to get stitches without pain medicine or at least ice. Maybe some liquor. Something..

He tried to work as fast as he could while being neat. This wasn't exactly his area of expertise. He'd been trained for emergency first aid before but practicing on dummies and bananas were a lot different than a real person's skin. For one thing, it was more bloody. His clothes were getting stained as the blood dripped from Peter's hand.

He breathed a sigh of relief when it was over. He took that handkerchief that Peter hadn't used but for a moment and tied up the wound. He looked at his hands and sighed. "I'm going to go wash up. Buttercup we can finish your hair after that, okay?"
