Hey, so.

Does anyone want to hang out and maybe build this cool lego replica of a medieval castle?

( That sound you hear? Definitely a box of legos he's shaking around. )

Or - I found a few different cleaning products that when mixed together can make some pretty awesome reactions? We can go mix them together, see what happens? Don't worry! I've got safety equipment and all that, promise.

Or we could do whatever. I'm easy.

( He just misses Ned and Aunt May and Happy's voice mail already, you know? )

[ SQUINTING AT UR USERNAME BECAUSE-- W A T .]

...your idea of fun is creating potentially harmful chemical reactions with cleaning agents. Right. Okay, that seems like a great idea.

[ look, he is using video so you get the full force of his unimpressed face. bad baby spider, bad.]

How about you stick to Lego. Or, you know, come help me in the lab, assuming you are some version of Peter Parker.

[ perma-video!! ]

[starkwebs]

( Okay, so another Mr. Stark told him about the multiple universe thing, and that username and face are definitely another Mr. Stark.

The face he makes when the feed turns on is definitely one that's excited, even if he's trying hard not to smile or, you know, be weird. He's working on it, promise. )

Yeah. I mean, why not? I know what kind reactions they'll make, and I made sure not to pick anything that'll explode. ( A pause. Okay, he's kind of lying. ) Much.

( He perks up slightly at the mention of a lab, and he definitely can't hide that smile. )

Dude, that'd be awesome!! But yeah, I'm Peter Parker. Or well, one of them, I guess? You're another Mr. Stark, right? ( Another totally awesome, super smart Tony Stark. What more could he ask for?? )

...oh my god, why are they leaving you unattended?

[Sam is Very Concerned.]

You need an adult. And by an adult, I mean anyone who isn't named Tony Stark.

[ perma-video!! ]

[starkwebs]

I have a social worker! She's real nice, I met her the other day. I see her a couple times a week, so I'm technically not alone. Technically?

( Except that he is, because no one is there to tell him not to do anything potentially dangerous. )

Is something wrong?

video; @just.marco

[brightline]

Okay, leading with the lego is just bad PR, everyone's gonna think you're one of the not-cool nerds instead of the cool ones that are getting popular, you get me?

[Marco is grinning as he says it, in a way that makes it more of a gentle tease rather than totally mean.]

Next time, lead with explosions. Speaking of which, I'm here for explosions.

[ perma-video!! ]

[starkwebs]

( Peter doesn't find the teasing to be an issue at all. He's been through much worse back home with other people, that's for sure.

He grins back. )

Makes sense! I'll remember that. But yeah, if you want some explosions, I can help with that! At least, small ones.

( Bigger ones are still a bit much on the senses. )

[Mixing. Chemicals. What. Tony is resisting the urge to put his head in his hands.]

Okay but can you just. Try your hardest not to blow yourself up? I'm pretty sure your aunt will find a way to reach through space and time to kill me.

[ perma-video!! ]

[starkwebs]

( Oh come on, Mr. Stark. It's not like anyone is going to get hurt! )

Yeah, I promise I won't! Most of it is pretty harmless. Think putting mentos in some soda!

( He tilts his head. )

Hey, Mr. Stark, I made a new formula for my synthetic webbing. You think you could take a look at it for me? I couldn't find one of the ingredients I needed in the chemistry class at the school here, so I had to improvise.

video; @doom

[metalmenace]

[The username plus the voice is really throwing him off here.]

You should stick with the legos instead of the chemicals since you sound far too young to be playing with the latter.

[ perma-video ]

[starkwebs]

( A username like Doom sounds promising. Only it doesn't. )

I'm not that young. I've been playing with chemicals for a while, actually. It's not too dangerous as long as you what you're mixing. And I have a perfect grade in AP Chemistry. I think I'm okay.

( What is with you people? )

Voice - @lolococo416

[threatenwithcuteness]

You found legos here!?

*She sounds a bit more excited than she should, it's such a childish silly thing to get excited over.*

...Are you trying to make explosives out of cleaning supplies?

[starkwebs]

Yeah, sure did!

( Why is everyone assuming he's trying to make something explode? )

Not explosives. There are other chemical reactions!

video; un: ghostking

[deathkid]

You have Legos?

[ video! ]

[starkwebs]

Yeah!

( He holds up the box for the other to see. )

I found it in the back of one of the stores. Pretty awesome, right?

voice, un: j.k.

[aeturnus]

And this is how the world ends. Not with a bang... but a teenager.

[ Everyone else is over the worrying part about the chemicals or the fun part of the legos. What if he just goes for the fun with the chemicals instead? ]

What do you have?

[starkwebs]

What, really? Why do you say that?

( He likes this guy. )

Uh, let's see. I have some ammonia, 2-Butoxyethanol, Chlorine, Sodium Hydroxide, and a few others in the common areas I haven't looked at yet.

[ Don't mind Loki stalking as many conversations as he can.

Mildly, ] You missing any ingredients, there?

[ video! ]

[starkwebs]

Ingredients?

Actually, I am missing a couple things I use to make something I carry with me. I checked all the science and chemistry labs at the schools, but none of them had any.

( He looks kind of bummed about it, actually. )

Voice; un: Katey.Kates

[littlemisskate]

That sounds like fun. I didn't know that there were lego's here.

[She could use some friends and legos sound like fun.]

[starkwebs]

Yeah, I didn't either! It was a total accident how I found them, but I'm glad I did. I used to build legos back home with my best friend, Ned.

voice; un: hero

[sanator]

I don't think its the best idea to start mixing chemicals around... are you a scientist? [Even though he sounds similar in age to Thom so it was hard for him to imagine the other guy as a scientist.] Lego sounds safe though!

[starkwebs]

Me? A scientist? Not really. I mean, I've taken and aced AP Science, but that's about it. I did make this cool, synthetic webbing, though, that's strong enough to hold together a couple hundred pounds.

( Don't worry so much, gosh! )

Oh, yeah totally. Legos are pretty safe unless you step on them.

video @lightemup

[umbrastaff]

Explosions are cool, my man. What are Legos, though?

[ video! ]

[starkwebs]

Right? I mean, not the big, super dangerous ones. But the small, self-contained ones are pretty awesome.

Oh! These- ( He holds up the box so she can see the front picture on the box. ) are legos! They're these little small building blocks you put together to make things like castles or space ships and stuff.

voice; @star.lord

[nostalgiabomb]

[ Looks like someone else is jumping on the Lego train. ]

Scale of one to ten, with one being, like, a shack, and ten being something from a metal album cover—

How cool of a medieval castle are we talking?

asking the important questions, peter

[starkwebs]

( There are plenty of legos to go around, okay. Lego party, anyone?? )

Oh uh. ( There's a rattling sound, and it's clear that Peter is picking up the box to examine it to be sure he gives this guy a fair assessment. )

I'd say like a six. It's pretty big, and it has kind of a Dracula's castle meets Disney princess vibe? Lots of towers and windows!

[ Jon jumps on the balls of his feet. ]

Me me! I wanna play!

[starkwebs]

( HELLO SMALL, EXCITED CHILD!!

Peter smiles brightly as the feed turns on. )

Awesome! ( He holds up the box, showing the boy the picture of the castle on it. ) It looks pretty cool, right? Where do you want to build it?

@ciscodelamancha | voice

[franciscoramon]

You had me at legos, dude.

[ It's only a voice message, but he's guessing from the enthusiasm and also the cavalier attitude towards safety that this is probably a kid. But Cisco remembers being a dorky, lonely kid who just wanted to do science and had no friends to speak of, so he's more than happy to offer: ]

How about instead of accidentally poisoning ourselves we just make a robot or something?

[ Yes, as far as Cisco is concerned, building a robot is both a simple and normal past time. Obviously. How did other people pass the time when they were growing up? ]

[starkwebs]

Because legos are awesome!

( A pause. He's about to argue that he's not going to blow himself up or poison himself, okay, but. This guy mentions making a robot.

That's more important. )

What, really? We can make a robot? Do you have the tools for us to do that? Because I would love to do that!

[envisaged]

[ While not having much of a particular interest in cleaning products or legos (or even knowing what those are), it's easy for her to suggest something in its place. ]

I had plans on exploring parts of the city.

[ Mostly, because she really has no idea what half of anything in this place is. ]

You can bring your things, if it interests you.

[starkwebs]

( He's always up for exploring. )

Oh, yeah! That'd be great! Do you have anywhere specific you wanted to go first?

[bookofyonah]

I wanna build a castle!

[ ...Sounds fun! But- ]

...What's a lego?

[starkwebs]

Awesome!

Oh, they're these small, plastic building blocks. You put them together to make different things. They come in all kinds of colors and shapes, too.

I have some neat sets back home, but this is the only one I could find here.

audio; tadah.itsme

[maskerades]

Let's start with "what's a lego" before I make a commitment to building anything.

So. What's a lego?

[starkwebs]

Legos?

They're like, small plastic building blocks. They come in all kinds of shapes and sizes, and you can make all kinds of stuff with them! Sometimes they come in custom sets like the one I found where you're supposed to make something specific like a Castle or house or something.

Do they not have legos where you're from? They're pretty popular back on my earth.

@dodger/audio

[smokedout]

Mixing cleaning products? What'cha been reading, the Anarchist's Cookbook?

[Because he's totally in if they're making chlorine gas.]

[starkwebs]

​More like my AP Chemistry book and a few science articles. But maybe I'll check out this Anarchist's Cookbook.

text (@natsume.t)

[mingling]

People here will definitely help you do that which is the weird part

[starkwebs]

​Build a lego castle? Or mix chemicals?​

voice ; un: s.rogers

[stevegrogers]

[ What had Tony been teaching Peter because honestly. The whole mentorship thing really needed to go another direction. ]

Peter, do not mix cleaning products together, especially ones you're finding around here. They might not work the same way you're used to. Things are different here.

[ He gave a pause and then sighed. ]

The legos, though, that's a better bonding experience. Maybe some board games and popcorn.

[starkwebs]

​( Okay, if Cap is telling him, he probably really should be careful. )

Yeah, you're right. I'll do some more research before I do anything, Captain!

( Probably not what Steve meant, but hey. At least he's being even more safe about it. )

Right? Legos are awesome! I used to build a bunch of them with my best friend Ned back home. It won't be the same without him, but I'm sure it'll still be fun.​

[greatflame]

[Legos can be fun but it's the other part that perks his interest most of all.]

Reactions? You mean like make stuff explode? [Because that would be awesome.]

[starkwebs]

​( Oh geez-- )

What? No! Why does everyone think that?​

Video @the.boneless

[ragnarsson]

I don't know what legos are-- [Poor deprived Viking.] --But does mixing those things produce explosions?

[Ivar has never had a day of formal schooling, and can read English at less than a kindergarten level, yet somehow he's still found out about what makes things explode. Shows where his priorities are at.]

[ video ]

[starkwebs]

​Geez, I don't want to know what kind of places all you people come from to ​have never seen legos!

( He actually has a good idea of what kind of places or times that might be, but seriously, you guys are missing out. )

They could, but I mean. I was hoping to see some other reactions. Maybe some boiling, evaporating, cooling, or solidifying. Nothing crazy.

video; un: soulbond

[alkahestic]

You're practicing alchem- Er, chemistry? Is that safe?

[ granted, he's made a few things explode in his time with alchemy, but experimenting just for the sake of it seems kind of dangerous.

[ video! ]

[starkwebs]

​Alchemy? Nope. Chemistry and science in general might be more accurate. And yeah, I mean, if you take all the proper precautions, it's totally safe.​

( It's not "just for the sake of it". Science is something he's good at and enjoys, this is definitely a learning process. )
