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?

[Well, she technically does recognize him. Going to attempt to be friendly. Again.]

Hi, Tony!

Um. I figured out a really awesome mix to make hot chocolate, would that help? None of the protein gels tastes right for coffee though.

Um... If you have caffeine tabs or something? I don't see why not. It would... Probably foam okay if you had like a... Uh.

[She doesn't do much cooking.] Blender thingy?

I don't know what any of those things are.

[It's like he's speaking in tongues.]

[...]

I'm from the year 3193.

[Uh.]

We have nanobots?
pain_train: (confidence)

[personal profile] pain_train 2016-06-09 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I think. Um... mostly molecular foundries and medical. So like, I think they were used to forge all our plasma blades because if you don't have perfect metallic structure, the magnetic fields that shape the plasma will rip the weapon apart. And they're something to do with the ports, I think? I also know nanobots built my skeleton and I've still got them in there to maintain it and all my synthetics.

[Okay, so far this Tony is way nicer than the guy in Proles. She feels a little bad for judging him so harshly before. That had been unfair of her.]

Nah. My organic skeleton got pulped after I got thrown out a window. It's a... [Thinking a moment to recall the specs she was told.] Metalloid ceramic composite. I think spec-wise it's a lot like light energy-disruption armor for impact and flex rating, but it's got a much higher ballistic and shear absorption potential. Also means I'm a lot heavier than I look, but I already had so much synthetic muscle fiber it was easy to tun that to compensate.

I don't think magic actually exists? But apparently it does here, so who knows. Um... I don't know, the process on making my skeleton was new. The armor composites branched off of gate-crossing space vessels though, I think? So like it's probably a couple hundred years old?
