[ Good whatever-fucking-time-it-is-now Riverview! You are being graced with the not-so-rare sight of one Tony Stark after spending too much time in the perimeter defence office throwing himself into work and, if you are to go by the state of his hair and the few smudges of grease on his face, perhaps throwing himself into some of the machinery that can be seen strewn about the place. (It really doesn't look any better from the last time you saw it, Riverview, still a chaotic mess).

With a twitch of his mouth, Tony settles his chin on his folded hands and peers into the feed, eyebrow cocked in a way that made him look equal parts insane and amused.]

So, I have been digging into some random things that I have been able to get my hands on as of late and, overall I have to say I am very impressed with the tech in this place. I mean, sure interdimensional portal and all that, but have you seen some of their basic routeing systems? Well, beyond the shitty ones that like to die and not work and--

[ Shit, wait. There was a reason he was doing this, right.

Tony blinks a few times, shakes his head, and continues.]

Point is, there is a lot I can dig into, lots of things that I can make, but only if I have the parts. So, here's the deal; whoever can bring me scraps of machines and computers, tech that seems mostly useless, please do. In return, I will be more than willing to work with, well, anyone that wants something that is a little harder to come by here.

[ Pushing back, Tony leans back in the chair he is sitting in and runs his hands through his hair.]

While I did say I was out of the weapons manufacturing back home, I can make exceptions here, so if there is something you want in particular, let me know. Within reason, of course.

[ There is a flash of a grin as he leans back in, a quick wink, before the feed cuts out. ]

tea isn't something that i am great with, but i can try to built you a semi-senient teapot if you would like? maybe you could train it to make the perfect cup of tea.

[ you would think that he is joking, but he isn't. ]

the fun part of it being monitored by an ai though is that my morality wouldn't come into question, you would gain the idea of morality through a logarithm that accounted for the most widely understood moral lines and then go from there. granted, seeing that typed out now makes me realize this is probably asking for some kind of disaster. so perhaps just armour and teapots then.

[greyjane]

what would a semi-sentient teapot entail exactly? seems like that could go macabre quite quickly. imagine your entire purpose in life being to make tea, and nothing else. can you program some sort of anti-madness protocol to go along with it?

[she knows a couple Eccentric Geniuses, it's cool. she's learned to never assume they're joking.]

you do realize you could just neatly corner the market on, say, sex toys instead of having to either/or it. who's to say you can't make armour and teapots (protocols allowing) and other things. i should think that would better appeal to someone going by mr. naked ;)

[amelioraate]

a teapot that would make tea to the exact specifications that you request of it verbally, with a learning curve built in so that it can figure out patterns in your tea drinking schedule and preemptively prepare the tea you would be most likely to want at any given time. and no need for anti-madness, mad teapots are the only kind of teapots that are useful.

[ that is a good life lesson right there.]

and I have been saying that forever! man, but my board of directors says that apparently making sex toys, no matter how green the energy, would somehow slander the company name. which... well no. i still have quite a few designs though, so if you want one i can help you out there ; )

[greyjane]

goodness. sign me up, then. i'll accept something along those lines as tribute for my excellence.

[#teaminsufferable right here, folks.]

well, unless i miss my guess your board of directors can't possibly be here. time to get cracking on that i think ;)

i'd certainly be willing to test a product or two.
