After the hearing ended, Tony successfully obtained permission to privately possess armored weapons.
But he did not get to relax.
Instead, he became even busier.
Every day on his schedule was packed to the brim.
At least ten times busier than when he had still been a playboy.

He even vouched for him with his past qualifications.
All to keep S.H.I.E.L.D. from being dissolved.
Fortunately, most of the newly
