Mark I - Video;

[aggravating]

[The camera is facing the wall. An interesting thing, seeing as there must be some sort of reason someone would purposefully start broadcasting a picture of the wall. Perhaps it was going to change? Perhaps there was a pattern hidden there, something just slightly off-white patterned there. Some hidden message, some hidden meaning. Perhaps all the answers to life were in that one little piece of a room, that one, focused image of a wall being sent around the barge. Perhaps-]

Back in black! [Oh.] I hit the sack [Is that-] I've been too long [Oh no.] I'm glad to be back!

[And just like that, AD/DC at full force in the background, the camera is picked up, held up and at an angle pure myspace style, revealing one Tony Stark in all his business suited glory.] Honey, I'm home! [Aaaand down goes the communicator on the nearest desk.] And, so we're all on the same page here, I fully endorse a battle royale to figure out who honey is. Although I warn you now, I'm a picky soul, and my heart belongs to one thing and one thing only.

[Wait for it, pause for dramatic effect, drum roll please!

... Yeah he's just stepping aside to show the Mark VII in all it's powered down glory.]

It's the red and gold that got me. I still say I go with the red suit and you wear the gold lace, babe.

I believe the lace would flatter your figure better, sir.

Fair point. [Yup. That's one smart-talking computer program that's followed Tony to the barge. Again. JARVIS is practically a part of him at this point. But at the very least Tony seems to be calming down, finally sitting at the desk the communicator's on and tilting it up a little to eye the camera a bit better.] Quick debrief. I'm back of my own free will. Lacking the invisible shackles this time around, and this? [Have a quick wiggle of his phone] I got promoted to camp counselor. So someone get the blogs out and give me updates.

Comments

[wedonot]

[Is it sad that he missed you?

Well, he did, so.]

Welcome back.

[lastincident]

[ oh fuck him running is it really ]

Welcome back, Mr. Stark.

[with_my_teacup]

And everything's gonna start smelling like engine grease and ego alll over again.

[Nah, Riddick isn't actually pressed. He's just acknowledging you're back.]

[lastrat]

[Oh what the fuck is happening now.] Subtle fellow, aren't you. [This is not remotely close to being an actual question.]

[wecanavenge]

You picked an excellent time to show up.

[Maybe whatever horror the Admiral is steering them toward will eat Tony. c:]

[dalekemperor]

[Electronic voice, bla bla exterminate.]

Who are you?

[megamind]

Quit stealing my music, Mr. Stark.

Welcome back, by the by.

[mistconduct]

....



What the fuck just happened.

[deadliestviper]

Oh fuck.

[Beatrix does not have the energy to deal with Tony fucking Stark today so that's all you get. Keep the pornstar accusations to yourself, buster.]

[tolaywaste]

Hey there.

[kind of popcorn.gif-ing, but at the same time he's glad for charles.]

Alex Summers. We kinda missed each other last time.

[ukan]

You're putting some faith in the Admiral, to come back here.

[secretasshole]

Welcome back, Mr. Stark.

[routemistress]

Love the suit, sweetheart. Iris Wildthyme. We missed each other first time round, but I used a chunk of your coding makin' the Lassiebots. Quite an elegant 'and with collapsing possibilities, I thought. Welcome back.

[After Loki's post, private]

[itstopped]

Welcome aboard. [It's very, very, very neutral, the way he says it. Not rude, not unfriendly, just... not especially warm, either. There are things here that interest him: Charles obviously liked his other inmate better than he liked Felix, and that rankles a little; the equipment, though, is pretty... well, cool.

Most important are Loki's accusations, though. He's not saying he believes them, but that's partly because he just doesn't believe most things anyone says anymore. He's not sure what to think. He's deciding, and that's the real reason he's contacting him right now.] It seems like not everyone is so pleased to see you.

[supersonic]

You got promoted to what?

[ How is that fair?

(...Okay, so maybe Tony Stark hasn't caused any massive alterations of reality or started any intergalactic wars recently, but... say, speaking of which: cue internal panic. Which is obviously best expressed through more sass.) ]

Next the Admiral will be hiring trained monkeys to run the place.

[love_slave]

You came back! [Tony gets all of the mixed reactions.]

Private

[breakingmyheart]

[what is it, like 'everyone Tosh ever had a genius douchebag crush on comes back' day

at least you don't have amnesia so that's awesome]

Welcome back, Tony.

[onlysurvivor]

I'm afraid I'm too new to this place to offer you updates.

[Long pause as he looks at the armor] Is that entire suit metal?

[bodilesswarrior]

[Welp.

She just shakes her head, smirking.]

This should be interesting.

a rare instance of Perry replying in [video]! (privately, though)

[vanshrike]

So glad to have the favorite twin with us again. [Guess who missed you? His inmate, clearly. Definitely not him, the break from you was nice.]

You forgot something, the last time. [He shifts the camera to reveal-- okay, scratch that, you know who really missed you? This tiny little robot currently making little grabby motions at the screen with its clamp-appendages.]

oh no I forgot to add you before you posted :c

[ichoosefight]

Hey, welcome back. How are things back home?

Video; A Wild Comic Nerd Appears!

[everynerve_ending]

[IS THAT-

THE IRON MAN SUIT?!

LIKE AN ACTUAL.

SUIT.

THAT IS REAL.]

Oh. My. God. That is... just. Wow.

[Yeah. He's going to. Stare.

For several seconds.]

Ummm. Can I... come down and. See it?

A-and you? Because you actually exist and... holy shit!

Video;

[sharpsuitfluffytail]

Gotta go with JARVIS on this one, Tony. Although personally, I'd just love to see him in a suit.

[No he didn't miss you. Except maybe a whole lot. He's grinning and trying to be Mr. Casual.

It's not working.

You're his big bro with a stupid glowing thing forever. Deal with that.]

Backdated, peas.

[some_kinda_hero]

[She somehow gasps and squeals simultaneously.] Tony!
