Who: Pepper Potts-Stark and Anyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Totally Open to anyone on the First Breath
When: Now
[Among those new crew members is one displaced CEO, although this isn’t exactly Pepper’s first time waking up somewhere unfamiliar. No, the sad truth is that her first though on opening her eyes was that the Malnosso had gone back to their old tricks, that some new experiment or war required their presence. Her first shock doesn’t come until she sits up and reflexively tries to stretch her wings—
Only to discover they aren’t there.
A look over her shoulder confirms it, and only then does she begin to worry. Being in Luceti had so often been a hardship, but at least there Pepper had some idea of what to expect. To discover she’d been taken again, seemingly by some different force and potentially to a different universe all together, doesn’t exactly inspire warm feelings.
She doesn’t have long to mull it over though; so soon after she wakes Pepper is being ushered to some other place—some other ship as it turns out, and with no real explanation she finds herself exploring an entirely new space, looking for both answers and familiar faces, one in particular. Rather than that comfort, however, her tour that brings with it some unexpected (and unwanted) surprises—particularly when she comes to the communications panel on the bridge.
Although the problem isn’t that she’s unfamiliar or confused by the numerous controls, as one might expect. As she looks over each switch and screen, Pepper immediately knows their purpose, blanks in her mind filled in before they’ve even properly formed. A stray thought questions if this might be how Tony’s mind clicks on when he looks at some new piece of tech, which isn’t exactly comforting.
Still, if she can broadcast, then maybe she can find those answers she’s looking for, not to mention the people. If not Tony himself, then someone else from either Luceti or her world or both. If this place is anything like the one she’d come from, then those connections would be vital to enduring whatever they were put through.]
Hello, everyone. I’m not sure if this is how it’s typically done, but my name is Pepper Potts-Stark. I’ve just arrived here, and was hoping someone could provide an explanation as to what’s going on? [A pre-written guide would be nice, but Pepper’s not counting on her luck being that good.]
Also, is there a way to tell who else has been brought here? Or to contact someone directly. [There’s a number of people Pepper certainly wouldn’t mind having around, especially depending on just how much this set of ships has in common with Luceti.] Thank you for your time and your help.
[Short, simple, and out.]

Re: video;
Right now, it's enough that she can trust him. In an alternate universe like this, that's something vital to know.]
That's--also good to know. [Not married, but presumably still together. She wonders how much longer it might take them; it'd been around a year in Luceti. She glances down at the rings on her finger, toying with the engagement ring in particular: simple, yet modeled so clearly after the arc reactor Tony once had in his chest.]
We got married in an alternate universe. We were both trapped in an enclosure called Luceti by an organization known as the Malnosso. From what I've been told, the circumstances here are pretty similar: people are drawn from different universes and points in time, with no idea of how it actually happens. Those people are modified, although in Luceti it was a bit more than an implant--[or a bit less, since the wings hadn't granted knowledge]--and subjected to whatever the controlling faction deems appropriate.
These ships are a lot more advanced though; technology in Luceti was pretty fleeting. It drove Tony nuts.
video;
No one's actually mentioned the wings to him yet, though, oddly enough.] I'm familiar with the name. There are several others here who have mentioned it, as well as at least two other such places. I begin to think some people are simply more susceptible to being chosen.[Oh, he can only imagine Tony's frustration with more backwards technology.] Naturally, we must earn at least some of the advancements from our hosts. I don't recommend the default food on the ships, for example, though I don't really require food to function myself.
