ᴏᴏ1 : ᴠɪᴅᴇᴏ

Who: Tony Stark [[personal profile] privatizes and YOU.
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: S.S. Pathstone.
When: Now!

[ tony has spoken to some folks on the fleet already, and has figured out a number of things.

1. this is not the first time he has been here. apparently, there have been multiple versions of him here, and therefore a good number of people aboard the fleet knows who he is. whether or not that's a good thing is yet to be determined.

2. there are alternate dimensions, universes, and worlds. which he knew already, thanks to loki and his fucking magical mystery tour of hell a few years ago, but it's a lot different here. memory mismanagement, different versions of different people... hawkeye is a chick now? sure, whatever. okay.

3. he has no suit. he has no lab. he has no money. he has literally nothing that he usually brings to the table when he does this whole 'good guy' thing, and so he has to make do with the weapons he does have.

4. the reality tv thing is probably bullshit, but you know what? let's do this thing.

so when tony finally turns on the camera to greet the fleet properly, he's sitting at the communications station on the pathstone, fiddling with a screwdriver in his hands. ]


So.

[ smooth beginning ]

What's a guy gotta do for a decent latte around here?

[ that's it. that's the post. time to feel out how many people actually recognize him around here. but first: ]

[ encrypted; filtered to steve rogers, wanda maximoff, peggy carter, and the vision ]

Hey, gang. Avengers Assemble or whatever.

[ he really just wanted to say it once. but after that joke, tony grows a little more serious. ]

I set up an encrypted feed. You're all on the list. I'm the only one who can add people on and off it, so don't bother trying, 'cause I'll both notice and be pissed that you tried. The Atroma can probably read and listen to every single word, but I'm still not convinced the rest of the Fleet is as trustworthy or welcoming as they claim to be. Best we keep anything superhero related to ourselves.

[ and he pauses ]

They put me on the Pathstone. It has no shields and no weaponry, but it has a jacuzzi.

[ said in the world's most dry tone ]

And on a totally hypothetical note, what happens when you apply to be captain on the computer?

[with a wry grin] No Starbucks. And I am from the middle of nowhere, but I don't think that's why we don't have it yet.

[. . . and now he's upset they don't dammit Tony Stark]

If you find someone here who can make one, you have to share who it is. That does sound perfect.

None with me, no. But I know a couple of people who either have music already or know how to get it.

If I get a hold of any music, I'll be sure to send it your way to ease your suffering.

Is it? I've managed it fine. [Hank you don't count ok] Are you an engineer?

[both eyebrows go up]

I feel like I'm obligated to argue that in some way.

[but he says it good-naturedly because let's be real, he's too nerdy to think he's the best]

I hope it's at least an accurate brainwashing. I ended up with lab support, so I still - am technically doing what I'm familiar with. I haven't tried building anything yet, though.

[. . . deadpanned]

You're going to have to prove it, I'm afraid.

[please prove it he wants to see what you can make Tony]

Mostly knowledge of how to use all the equipment in the lab, as well as the med kits. [a little dryly] Probably basic medical and chemistry knowledge too, given what it's in here.
