[The main hypocrisy of this encounter that's about to happen is: Tony's also wearing red.
fZZZt--boom. That would be a repulsor beam slicing through a nearby tree, swinging a couple dozen feet past Taako, past the warriors that Taako is fighting, until it focuses squarely on a fallen fuel cell. It'd been a pretty fancy-looking fuel cell, something Tony would've liked to play with, probably, if he weren't occupied with fighting enemy combatants.
The explosion sends up a wave of concussive force. It's not close enough to the mage to hurt him, but enough that he's definitely within radius when the leaves and splinters come showering down after. And somebody who's now missing the upper half of their body also flies by, narrowly missing clipping him on their way past. The ground is red and chunky in parts, rather like, and this is not to spoiler Taako about the future of interdimensional cuisine, but— salsa.
In the meantime, Iron Man is wheeling around in the sky, making a tight turn. Coming back for a second volley.]
