Oh he likes her. Tony leans back in his chair and clasps his hands over his stomach, his legs stretching out in front of him and crossing at the ankles. His body language is clear: he's good here until he gets some real answers or at least until he gets to talk to the men themselves.

"...But you're not. Obviously." A vigilante. Is he onto her? He shrugs one shoulder, eyes still trained ahead. "Just an if, for instance type of hypothetical. This would be a good place to start looking for the Dare Devil."

She nods her head, playing up the bitter rich girl act as much as possible. "Obviously. You and Thor have the market cornered on rich people and royalty saving the little people. What could I contribute other than my stunning good looks and excellent taste in casual wear?" It takes five minutes to Google who she is so she's not even gonna play like she isn't super rich or a diplomat's daughter.

"And hypothetically? You're likely on the right track. I wouldn't be shocked if Daredevil had this place bugged. It's pretty easy to sneak things into a blind man's office."

He rolls his eyes at the Thor thing, everyone likes to compare them but they're easily the most different members of the team. Not that Pointbreak doesn't have his moments, okay, it's just annoying. But he lets it go, he's not here to squabble with 'the little people,' as it were.

"You sound like you're speaking from experience." Just saying. "What about the other guy? Is he really that clueless?" In Tony Stark 'clueless' translates to not as insanely paranoid as him.

She shrugs casually. No sense in denying it if she can play it off as a joke. "What girl hasn't committed a felony or two?" That can be anything in her crowd. Elektra grows a little more somber for Matt's part in this. He really does make her life difficult, she thinks.

"Well he is dumb without question, but I wouldn't say clueless. I'd say inclined to metaphorically look the other way is about where he stands on this."

"I can think of one." His eyebrows lift, but he doesn't correct her otherwise, listening intently to her commentary about Foggy. That seems about right.

"You would both do anything for him, wouldn't you?" This blind lawyer dude isn't doing too bad despite the desperate appearance of this law firm at first glance. He has a woman and a best friend who loves him. He knows what that feels like first hand, and there's no replacement for it. But maybe... it's not enough.

That line of questioning makes her a little nervous, but she plays it off with a shrug. Her skin crawls from being so easily read and called out, but what can she do? Matthew already was suspicious enough to grab his attention. If her damage control doesn't work, they- or really he is royally screwed here. No one needs the Avengers coming down from their place in the sky. Elektra thinks it will end particularly bad for Matt since this is the one problem Elektra can't buy or kill for him.

"If you saw him from behind you'd understand why. He has a fantastic ass. Who wouldn't do anything for a man who looked like that?"

"Wow, good point." He turns back to look at the wall. She doesn't seem the shallow type to him, but what does he know? "I mean... I'll take your word for it." He really won't.

She smirks because Tony isn't that subtle in this instance. "You can look, you know. I'm not officially dating him. The last time we did that, we were teenagers." If he reads between the lines though he's still hers so you can only look. :> Matt's still hers.

"Staring at a blind guy seems... cruel, somehow." Just saying. Not that he's bad to look at okay!! But he is totally all yours.

Elektra nods sagely. "Very true. How can you inflate his ego if he has no idea you're doing it?"
