[ Distinguished and not-so distinguished residents of Riverview, hello.

Currently, you are graced with a mugshot of one Peter “Space-Duke” Quill and a view of the messier half of his shared apartment. In his hand is his trusty mp3 player – which boasts at least three hundred songs, holy crap, y’all – and while he has one bud in his ear, the other dangles from the wire. ]


So. Apparently if nothing else, this place has, like, all the music ever. So if I’ve gotta be stuck here, might as well make the most of it, right?

I’m on the hunt for somethin’ new. Tryin’ to play a whole lot of catch up. If anyone’s got any music recommendations, I’m all ears. Songs, artists, albums, weird, avant-garde stuff with a guy saying “number nine” over and over – hit me with your best shot. I’ll try anything once.

Also, uh.

[ A pause, and he turns the mp3 player’s face toward the camera. The screen happily displays the album art of The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire, Vol. 1 while “September” plays. Zunes, man!! Aren’t they rad? ]

Don’t suppose anyone here’s familiar enough with this that they can show me how to add stuff?

[Apparently this is the kind of thing that's going to require appropriate facial expressions, so Tony switches on the video as well.

Just to arch an eyebrow at him.]


Uh, because they went obsolete pretty quickly? I mean, part of it was Apple's marketing job, I'm still mad at them for some of that, but competition got fierce and Zune lost out. How do you even have one that still works?
buildsomething: (puzzling)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-09 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Ah.

[Yeah, Tony's not touching that one with a twenty foot pole.]

Well, if it works, it works. It can sit in the corner with the Nokias. What kind of music are you looking for?
buildsomething: (drink?)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-09 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
70s kind of guy, huh? [He makes a bit of a show of looking thoughtful.] How about Led Zepplin, AC/DC? Pink Floyd?
buildsomething: (science!)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-09 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's a start. Add in some Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath and you've got something.

[Tony pauses for a moment, expression shifting to something considering.]

If you start running out of space, let me know. I can probably jury rig some more memory in there.
buildsomething: (smiley)

[He knows he shouldn't but Tony can't help smiling a little.]

You'd be surprised how quickly collections expand. But the offer's there.
buildsomething: (send help)

[Tony pauses, eyebrows lifting. Star Lord does have kind of a familiar ring to it...]

Depends. Are you the showtunes guy?

[If so, congratulations! Correct Tony Stark.]
buildsomething: (solemn)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-11 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Right. It's a cover of a showtune, my mistake. [So very, very dry.]

Nice to see none of the other plants got you.
buildsomething: (you said what?)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-14 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, it's better than Stank.] Stark. Tony, if you prefer.
buildsomething: (tinkering)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-15 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[He rolls his eyes a little but doesn't seem to upset about it either. Tony's heard worse.]

You too. Though I'd love to get a look at that jetpack some time.
buildsomething: (new perspective)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-17 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Tony's eyebrows lift into an amused look.]

Deal. What kind of computer do you have?
buildsomething: (science!)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-17 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[...oh boy. Tony lets out a long breath.]

That's how you get the music on. Do you have one at all?
buildsomething: (solemn)

[personal profile] buildsomething 2017-08-18 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Tony gives the screen an equally long, if less weighted look, and then huffs in amusement.]

I can hook you up, don't worry.
