6th Command; Video

[aggravating]

[Given what's happened lately? Tony's looking even more sleep deprived as usual. And more than a little fed up with... well, with just about everything]

Few things, ship.

One: The food here is crap, and I want a cleaning service. Or a car. Or both.

Two: I think I kind of promised someone a particle accelerator. I claim time extension rights considering my first port and a goddamn flood.

Which brings us to three. Sorry kids, bed offers expired.

[Filtered to Maintenance/Repair/Lab Wardens and such]
Pretty sure you guys have been told about me. But I'm kind of a big deal in engineering, robotics, and math.

So here to serve or whatever.

[Private to Charles]
I need you to back me up. I'll trade ignoring your trigger happy friend for it.

Basically, I need spare arc reactors. And I need to build them, and have people not know what the hell they actually are. And since I'm an inmate that's probably gonna require your word that they're not some sort of bomb.

[Private to Steve]
Do I need to tell you to shut up about the arc reactor, or is that kind of a given?

Comments

[yeahscience]

There's always gonna be a port or a Goddamn flood, yo. Best get used to it.

I don't even want to know about that last one.

[aggravating]

Yeah, no, you don't.

[He just lets out a frustrated noise]

This is the stupidest ship I have ever seen.

[gotgreenmagic]

1. The food here is fine, maybe if your butler or whatever winds up here you can get it made to your exact specifications.

2. I'm just gonna tell you right now this is a project you're unlikely to finish.

3. Let me shed a single perfect tear on behalf of my gender.

Jesse, the eternal threadjacker

[yeahscience]

Dunno what all the noise is about, anyways. I like sandwiches. [Says the dude who lives on Doritos and Funyuns... and doesn't even remember that his last and mostly only interaction with Shego was snapping at her.]

[aggravating]

I'd give my left kidney for a New York pizza. Or McDonalds.

I made one in my living room. Pretty sure I can manage here.

[The last one? It just gets him to grin]

Trust me, its a travesty that I'm working my way off the market.

[lacksconviction]

What was the 'bed offer'?

[Sincere question, because if you were offering to give away your bed, then there is a Norse God whose room is basically a glass tube who doesn't like that you've rescinded this offer.

Shut up he's allowed to be slow sometimes.]

[private]

[aggravating]

[Oh my god he looks both pained and like he's trying his best not to laugh his ass off]

See this? This is why we need to give you a modern vocabulary lesson.

[The private filter is, well. He kind of made an ass of himself, and doesn't want the general populace knowing he almost feels bad about it.

Apparently Loki's in the friend zone already.]

I slept around during the last flood. A lot.

[truth_is_cold]

I think our staff of serial killers, assassins, and military do a commendable job of food preparation, considering their resources. Though yes, if you can find someone with the means to personally prepare your specific liking feel free too.

[aggravating]

Which is kind of why I check my sandwich for razor blades every day.

I miss food. Burgers, pizza, fries so drenched in grease they're practically falling apart.

[most_feared]

What's this about a particle accelerator?

If you kept the materials and product in the lab you might be able to find one of the researchers on board to lend you a hand and resources.

[aggravating]

Got challenged by someone to make one within a week.

And then we went to Gotham, so it kind of slipped my mind.

[He grins, then] Pretty sure a part of the challenge was making my own parts, but thanks.

I promise this'll be my last one. I needed a person for each thing.

[love_slave]

[Little grumble on Zev's behalf and a sigh.] I'm sure I can find someone else that I can use for sex.

[Alas. She wants to ask the technicalities for taking virginity, but that Zev got laid a lot with Thodin. Damned technicalities.]

8D give me ALL the characters!

[aggravating]

[He... gives a bit of a startled laugh at that]

God, never imagined I'd be using the old "It's not you, it's me" excuse.

Trust me, if a repeat performance was in the cards, I'd be all for it, gorgeous.

[He just can't really trust himself to be naked and personal with someone when a flick of the wrist can get the arc reactor out and have him dead in a matter of minutes.

Obie kind of ruined his sense of security.]

[breakingmyheart]

Electrostatic or oscillating field?

[aggravating]

[No. Freaking. Way.]

Oscillating field. I have a knack for circular, even managed to ramp up counter radiation enough to nix bremsstrahlung.

[Private]

[wedonot]

[Sob Tony, sometimes you're the best inmate.]

That's fine. I'll ask the Admiral for the necessary parts.

[Private]

[aggravating]

[He's always the best inmate, okay]

... Thanks. [He hesitates just a second before tapping a finger to the side of his head] Go info diving, Professor. I already have to show Steve how to connect wires, don't really have it in me to do a repeat performance.

I'll keep an extra with you and Cap, unless you have a better idea.

[Techy Filter]

[inhistorybooks]

I think some of the maintenance and repair stuff might be a little boring for you, but we can always use an extra hand. And it's been a while since I've worked on a more complicated project with someone, so if you're ever in the mood to hash something out, let me know.

[Techy Filter]

[aggravating]

Honestly, I just need metal in my hands again. If that means reinforcing or repairing, I'll be good.

[For... a few weeks, but hey.

He shrugs]

If anything, I can make new tools. Helper bots.

[trenchcoatedly]

Perhaps you could help in the kitchens if you're unsatisfied with your food choices.

You're capable of creating a particle accelerator on your own?

[aggravating]

Have one running through my house back home. It's really not that hard. [If you're a ridiculous genius]

Was gonna try that, but I'm kind of better assembling machinery than food.

[It takes him three hours to make a burnt omelet, after all.]

[Lab Warden Filter]

[timesbureaucrat]

You let a little thing like a flood get in your way? [Narvin enjoys his trolling.]

Well, I was thinking of bringing you on my project team--we're working on temporal mechanics, chronon research--but if you can't manage a simple particle accelerator without getting distracted...[By massive dimensional disruption and temporary total identity change]...I just don't know.

[Nevermind that Narvin had been so disrupted by the flood that he'd been begging the Admiral to let him be an inmate.]

[Lab Warden Filter]

[aggravating]

[He likes the way you troll, sir]

Yeah, sorry. Still holding fast to time extensions due to first ship identity crisis. And zombiepocalypse.

[His eyebrows arch up] Chronon? Not really my field. But hey, you need a machine built and equations figured out and tested, I'm your guy. Just give me a packet and I'll be on doctorate level overnight.

BEFORE HORRIBLE SHENANIGANS

[umgekehrt]

Well, damn.

[aggravating]

[Oh god it's you.

Too bad that response is getting a gut-reaction grin out of him.]

Yeah, sorry to disappoint. Should have taken advantage of it when you could.

private;

[thestarspangledman]

It's kind of a given, don't worry.


...Just do me a favor and stay away from Lensherr, okay?

private;

[aggravating]

Awwww, didn't know you cared.

[It's so much easier to just fall onto sarcasm and assholery at times like this. But. It's Cap, so...]

Already promised Speed Wheeler a blanket ignoring session. But... [He makes a face] We need to talk, later.

You may or may not have noticed, but I get kind of clumsy when going into heart failure. So it might be worth it to explain to you how this things screws in and out.

[Hey look, Steve. This is trust. :C ]

[ Maintenance Filter ]

[surfaceshine]

Ever heard of the term "overqualified?"

[It's bro-teasing. Deal with it.]

[ Maintenance Filter ]

[aggravating]

[Considering his grin, he so will]

Considering I was declared a genius when I was ten? Yeah, I've heard it a few times.

[He raises his eyebrows, though] I like to think of it as less overqualified and more I'll redesign everything you know and love.
