[ The look on Tony's face as the feed clicks on is clearly unamused. Possibly even Unamused, capital and all. Why is he so irritated you might ask? Well, don't you worry about that, he is bound to let you know. As soon as he finishes sipping on his coffee in a more than obnoxious way. If you look close enough, and know Tony, you will be able to see a darkness beneath his eyes, the kind that comes with too much coffee and too many ideas and not enough hours in the day, so clearly he has to sacrifice some of the night for the Greater Good or some shit.

Whatever. That is why there is coffee.

Once the coffee has been consumed, Tony gets up from where he is sitting, and it becomes very obvious that he is in the kitchen on the floor, a kitchen you have all seen thanks to a Viking, but there is no sign of him now. However, there are signs of someone making a rather large breakfast here (if only you could smell it, seriously, Tony would kill to eat some of it okay) and not sharing.

This? This is why Tony is unamused.]

Really, you come in here, use the space and leave the dishes, while also not sharing?

[ Steve is gonna be annoyed. Not that he isn't usually in that state. The images shifts as Tony puts the phone down, and there is the sound of more coffee making its way into his cup while you get a lovely view of the ceiling. Look, no scorch marks. Yet.]

That's just rude, even for gods of chaos and mischief. And here I was going to make you a fancy partial AI for your phone. Ha.

[ Look, he doesn't know if it was Loki, but he assumes it is. Because if it was Steve or Bucky they would have shared, and he is pretty sure that Stephen only eats things that are still moving, and Billy-- well maybe him too. But for now, his ire is on Loki.]

Also, working on some ideas for the defence perimeter, some new weapons and targeting systems, if there is anyone that has any ideas, let me know. I mean, I've probably already thought of it, but still might be nice to bounce ideas around.

[ Look who is outside and loving life and definitely not squatting on a kitchen floor like a technopath loser. ]

It's way past morning. Hasn't anyone tidied up yet? [ No, it doesn't matter that it's Loki's mess. Don't you people have standards? Do you want to live in squalor? ] Someone needs to rinse off the oven tray, most importantly. That thing is loaded in grease.

[amelioraate]

[ SCOWLING. Yeah, he thought it was you.]

I just got in, so that depends on how you view morning there, godling.

[ NOISILY SIPPING COFFEE WHILE GLARING AT YOU. Seriously, he might be able to handle the mess if you, you know, shared, but you are apparently more of a jerk than he thought and didn't do that so.]

Pretty sure Steve has a chore list somewhere, and people who make messes are supposed to clean them up. Otherwise you might find grease loaded oven trays under your covers.

> action

[anotheroldsoldier]

[Guess who else is annoyed when he comes out into the common area, clearly just getting back from the gym? Yeah, this guy. He pauses in the doorway to the kitchen and his eyes fall on the mess of dirty dishes and lingering scent of food, and he looks irritated, having just shown up in time to watch Tony record his video and lay the blame on Loki.]

He's worse than Logan. [Bucky grumbles that out as he crosses the kitchen to see if there's any coffee left.] What sorts of things are you working on? It's nothing that's gonna blow up, is it?

[amelioraate]

[ Good, be annoyed with him. Seriously, this is not what he wanted to deal with. He just wanted coffee and someone to help him go over some of the ideas he came up with. Tony looks up, eyebrow raised, as he pockets his phone and leans against the counter.]

... you know you might be right about that. Though I never thought anyone would be worse than him. It's the taunting that makes it worse. [ Moving to the side, he lets Bucky at the coffee as he shrugs.] Nothing that will blow up on accident. I am looking more so to focus on turrets that can be posted and can track specific life signs. Like the display in the suit, with designations for specific makeups.

[ So this Tony doesn't look exactly like the one he's used to, but it's not hard to connect the dots, what with the username and all.

Okay, especially the username. Only Tony goddamn Stark would have something like that.

And since his own floor is somehow blessedly free of everyone from alternate universes, Sam has one question: ]

What the hell is going on here, Stark?

[amelioraate]

[ why are you yelling at him? what did he do? fuck.

Tony blinks because that is Sam, but not Sam, and--]

God fucking Christ on a pogo stick. Really? You yell at me right off the bat? No 'hi Tony, how are you dealing with being in an alternate universe'? Just, 'Stark, give me answers!'.

[ Scowling at you as he sips his coffee because ROOD.]

You're not used to multiverses are you.

[starspangled]

[steve would say that they need to talk about that username - would, because he's already figured out that he's not the tony that he knows, thanks to bucky. not that bucky, the other one.

but the real reason steve doesn't bring it up is because he figures this tony stark is enough like his tony stark that it wouldn't make any difference anyway.]

I'd be interested in hearing your ideas.

[amelioraate]

[ The only thing talking to him about his username would garner is a link to the Daily Bugle that one time. So yeah, best to not say anything.

Though Tony does do a bit of a double take when he realises this is Steve. Well, a Steve. An eyebrow goes up and Tony puts his chin in his hands and smirks a little.]

We do work well as a team. Was hoping I could meet up with you and... other you, and whomever else is on the search team you have there to talk about strengths and weaknesses in the perimeter. Also, if you have any info on what the hell might be out there because that would make my life easier. And yours really.

Video - @chandra

[firelogic]

*Wow she is waaaaay too close to her camera. Enjoy the close up on freckles and an orange eye.*

So this thing can actually see me? Neat.

*She eventually pulls back enough to let people get a good look at her. Red hair, silly goggles, wearing a loose fitting tunic meant to go under armor. Look Chandra is playing with her phone and it hasn't melted, broken, or been tossed out a window!*

Anyway, what do you mean by targeting systems? You some kinda artificer? Can't you just aim your weapons like normal people?

[amelioraate]

[ Tony winces a little, tipping his phone back a bit before:]

Yeah, it can. And I can tell you that is one cool as fuck eye colour there. But uh...

[ As he goes to tell her to pan out a little, she does so and Tony sighs a little. It is a little too much like being close to someone he doesn't know, that being up in his face. But he looks almost amused at the torrent of questions. There is a pause where he sips his coffee, humming a little as he thinks about his answers (really, he's just kind of checking her out, whoops).]

Electronic targeting systems, place them in the turrets, allow the turrets to make the distinction between friend and foe and begin the whole defence thing without someone having to be there. And by artificer do you mean sorcerer? Because we have those where I am from, but no artificer, not that I am a sorcerer either, but whatever. An engineer, that is more my thing. Make the weapons, and fire them pretty well, but why not make weapons that can fire themselves?

[advanced]

[Replying to Tony Stark is stupid. It's stupid and reckless and guaranteed to deal a blow to his anonymity. But there are things about this message that he just can't ignore, so he'll just have to hope he can keep his identity out of it.]

Did anyone ask you to make new systems for the perimeter?

[amelioraate]

[ That is... a really boring username there and if he didn't already know what both of the Steve's were, he would think it was them. Or possibly Loki trying to be a troll. As it stands, he assumes it's just someone random that has been dropped here, no need to go a hacking yet.]

Well they did hire me for the defence perimeter shit, so yeah. Basically. You don't give me half rate technology and not expect me to upgrade it. Why.

[livingsymbol]

I think we should do our own recon. See what is out there so we know what to prepare for.

What time is it?

[amelioraate]

You want to ask Bucky if he's up for a little science trip? The more data I can get my hands on the better.

And it's almost noon, why? Doesn't your phone have a clock?

@outis

[prisonking]

Do we need an RA?

[amelioraate]

I don't think you could pay someone enough to deal with the shit that is going to go down.

Fuck, I am so sorry. Avoid the one that wears green and gold, okay. Also the one that looks like a magical hobo. Also-- you know what, you should climb out the window while you can.

[pundemic]

[She's just. Going to laugh. Okay, you know what? Fair enough.]

Ho-oo-oly shit, dude, how'd they fit your ego through the portal with the rest of you?

voice;

[amelioraate]

Space-time compression. Fun stuff, you get something dense enough like say, a Loki, and it forms a bend in space-time that allows larger objects to be compressed and fit through smaller spaces.

.... don't tell him I said that.

[suckstobestrange]

[Mostly still paying more attention to his book than his phone, if Tony thought he looked like a D&D hobo before, the continued stubborn ignoring of the concept of sleep hasn't helped things at all.]

Something tells me attempted public shaming isn't going to work as well as you'd like.

[amelioraate]

[ Dude. You look like shit. What the hell.

Tony stares at the screen, eyes a little wide because... what.]

Fuck, do you want some coffee? There's enough left.

[STAAAAAAAARK. Scott is not a fan. More like the anti-fan.]

Amazing any of us can even fit here around all your ego, Stark.

[Enjoy that patented Ant Man Sick Burn.

[amelioraate]

[ LOOK HERE. HE ISN'T YOUR STARK. WHAT THE FUCK.

Just... deadpanned. Wow. W O W. ]

Did you steal that from a kindergartener because that was seriously weak. What is your problem, seriously.

video; un: actualwizard666

[noassgardian]

Well, to be fair... I guess that is one of the hazards of sharing a communal kitchen.

[Wow, he really is just casually talking to Tony Stark, isn't he?

And sharing floor space, he guesses. That's really-- cool.]

[amelioraate]

I think it is more of a hazard of living with Loki to be honest. I mean, maybe not as bad as Logan, but pretty close.

[ Tony is side eyeing the mess so hard right now. UGH. He refuses to clean that. ]

Action

[ragnarsson]

[Don't mind Ivar. He's just been lying by the entrance to the kitchen, watching that all without saying a word. He drags himself into using his arms and makes his way over to a chair. Pushing himself into it, he adjusts the straps on his legs so they're in a more comfortable position, and pulls a knife out of his boot. He uses it to clean the dirt out from underneath his fingernails. Considering they're his mode of transportation, they're pretty damn dirty.

Only after he's cleaned out one of them does he look up at Tony, both his irises and sclera a pale blue. His voice is curiously accented when he speaks.]

You know, if it bothers you that much, you could just clean it all yourself.

[amelioraate]

[ Tony drops the phone and is going back to sipping at the coffee when Ivar drags himself into the kitchen. He doesn't speak, just sits there and sips his coffee, oddly quiet for him, and watches. Honestly, usually he would make a comment about something, probably something that is seen as being highly offensive because that is how he rolls, but he would rather finish this coffee and get a read on this guy; they share a floor so--

There is a snort into the mug at the suggestion and gives him a pointed look.]

Nuh uh, I am not cleaning up the godlings mess, thank you. I have my own messes to deal with I am not dealing with his.

Hello Mr Stark,

What kind of idea have you had already? I'll be working as a perimeter guard so would like to know what to expect.

Regards,
Adam

[ You are a smart one. Excellent call. ]

Tony is fine, I swear Mr Stark gives me hives. As for my ideas, just basic tracking and early identification systems, perhaps integrated with my AI to help out with plans of attack and getting notifications out to those of us who might have to handle things. Also some upgrades, but those are ideas I am not about to go about putting up on a probably insecure network.
