If Tony's head hadn't already been spinning, it definitely would be at Lydia's words. He takes in what she says, though, trying to absorb every detail as if somehow that will help. Except it doesn't, and Tony doesn't even know what to say.
He takes in the way that she deflates, though, and her body language. She's good at lying, he would even probably believe her, but here's the thing: Tony Stark doesn't just give his tech to anyone. At least, in normal circumstances, he doesn't. In some way it's his way of looking out for those he cares about, and that's Tony's sign that her 'we weren't that close' is not quite accurate.
Except, he doesn't call it out even his expression shifts into one that is a little more understanding. He nods slightly with a faint hum, and reaches for a mug.
"Well, you know... Just because I don't remember you, it doesn't mean that you can't fill me in. Or that I can't get to know you again." It's said casually, as if this isn't a big deal, but he glances over at her after a small moment as if testing the waters. "If you want, I mean."
