Just because something works, doesn't mean that it cannot be improved

Summary:
Shuri refuses to let Tony mess with her designs for Bucky's new arm. This is her white boy to fix, and she'll damn well do it right. Tony Stark can take his overprotective non-arguments somewhere else.
Notes:
- For ezazahaz.
Dear ezazahaz, I spent a lot of time going back and forth on which of your prompts to start working on. The noir prompt especially had my mind racing, but it quickly grew into a monster that I had no way of controlling - I'd love to get back to it at some point, but I'd probably need to find a collaborator/beta first who has some more knowledge of the noir comics to do it justice. This, combined with time constraints, meant that my love for Shuri eventually won out and the end result is some of the suggested arguing, with a a view of Wakanda thrown in. I really do hope you enjoy it! <3

Notes:
There is more subtext than text in this one, which I hope people pick up on (check the tags if not). I imagine a very agreeable discussion on outlandish spare- and alternate arms follows the next day. I tried to write it out, but my writing muse is very finicky and currently taking an extended holiday. I have left her a post-it note for when she gets back, though ;)
If anyone is interested I can upload the component drawings (without text, etc) after the reveal, either in an extra chapter or on tumblr.
