[ 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.

Mmm, a pleasure to meet you Ivar. [ Look, he has heard weirder names okay. ] Want some coffee at all?
[ He gestures to the coffee pot that still, miraculously, has coffee in it. ]
no subject
What's in it?
[He's from a time that doesn't have the drink.]
no subject
[ There is another flash of a grin, knife sharp and amused. You are on the mark with it being very muchly so a cover up for something else. The fact that he is two steps from having a bit of a break down because of the shit that has been going on back in his home universe probably doesn't help anything either.
Tony pours the coffee into a new cup that is within reach and slides it towards Ivar.]
Coffee. The best damned thing to exist I tell you. I mean, if you like bitter hot water that sometimes tastes like dirt, but not if you brew it right, that can keep you up. It has the ability to block adenosine from binding to the receptors in your brain and--[ p a u s e .....] You probably didn't want the molecular breakdown did you. Whatever. This shit is amazing and helps you stay away if you are like me and don't exactly have a good relationship with sleep. If it's too bitter, add sugar. Add cream to it and you are a heathen.
no subject
[He watches Tony with his bright eyes, still trying to read him. Ivar's good at that, figuring people out, wondering what makes them tick. Tony is an unknown element and so that makes him interesting.
The coffee gets a cautious sniff and the explanation gets a blank stare. He's not stupid, just ignorant, so all the science goes straight over his head. Then he drinks it. The warmth of it is nice, but the drink itself is too bitter for Ivar's tastes. He picks up the sugar bowl and pours out a good amount into his cup. The second sip is much better.]
This could take some getting used to. It's interesting. Not that I have trouble staying up. [He's naturally a bit of a night owl, which his roommates might discover if they ever find him creepily staring at then in the middle of the night.]
no subject
The ones that matter can handle it, not sure why they put up with me but there are some that do.
[ Is he being oddly open about that? Maybe, or maybe that was just how Tony Stark rolls.
The genius watches as he takes a sip of the coffee, considering. Tony is more than aware that there are those that love coffee and those that hate it. There is also the middle ground of tolerating it because of the things it can help you achieve but--
When Ivar adds sugar to it, Tony laughs a little.] You can get it in flavours too, it's like a damned religion where I am from. I probably worship at the alter of coffee myself, but eh. [ He shrugs a little, still smiling.] I don't have much of an issue with staying up but sometimes...
[ There is a sheepish look.] I am more than a little known for going days without sleep, especially if I have a project, and I am not the most aware human after those binges. Throw a knife then and I might actually flinch. If I notice.
no subject
[He did love them most days. It hadn't cut down on the murder attempts, but hey, he's only tried to kill one out of four, so he's doing alright in the family homicide department. His entire family was screwed up to one degree or another. It was like one big ancient soap opera.
He takes another sip of coffee. So many strange drinks in this new place. Soda was fast becoming a favorite of his. The cabinets in the kitchen were now fully stocked thanks to the young Viking. As Tony continues to speak, he's getting a more full picture of how the genius blasphemer operates. People were like chess pieces. They all moved in certain ways.]
That's very interesting. Now I know when to plan the assassination attempts.
[That's a joke...maybe. Nothing Tony says has really warranted death yet, but Ivar's been known to kill men for less.]
