[the feed picks Tony up leaning in to peer at the screen, scowling faintly. he pauses to take a drink from the glass Dummy's so kindly holding for him, then scowls a little more]

... Pepper...? Pepper could you c'mere please. I need to ask you something very important.

You know.

About my stuff.

The stuff you apparently deleted.

...What got deleted? [ It has to be something important, right? ]

[rockstark]

[COUGH. which is not suspicious at all and is totally just booze going down the wrong tube]

Uh, surveillance. Really important surveillance. Classified.

[hulk]

Classified, really important surveillance. That you're going and asking about... On here. You know. The public forum.

[ uh. huh. ]

[rockstark]

Hence the vagueness. C'mon, follow along with the rest of the class.

[ms_potts]

[Wanders in, still tapping at something on her PDA. What? You interrupted her while she was working. You don't expect her to just drop EVERYTHING just because you called her name did you?]

Yes, Tony?

[rockstark]

[yes, yes he does, because THAT IS YOUR JOB]

Where's my stuff?

[ms_potts]

[No. THIS is her job. Her job that you are currently interrupting. She sighs and looks up, giving him a look]

You'll have to be more specific than that.

[rockstark]

The stuff you deleted, according to Jarvis' records, approximately [time frame here] ago.

[pointed look]

That stuff.

[notmyfirstrodeo]

You can't really blame her for trying to keep you organized. Focused.

[Don't scold his hero, Tony. She's a saint.]

[rockstark]

[thanks to months' experience in Coulson banter, Tony reads the subtle nuances like Johnny Five reading Hooked On Phonics.

YOU put her up to this didn't you... right. betraying nothing. banter onward, ye brave Lord Stark]

Noted, but there's a lot of subtle nuance in what I do, what's involved. The kind of resources I need.

[notmyfirstrodeo]

[Oh dear they're becoming fluent, huh?]

I assume that's why you have someone so capable as Ms. Potts on the task.

Subtle isn't the word that comes to mind when your name pops up in conversation though. Or nuance.

[rockstark]

[his Coulson is better than Banner's Portuguese, let's put it that way]

Then you're clearly conversing with the wrong people. You SHIELD guys, you're always getting my bad side, why is that? You should fire your photographer, metaphorically speaking. I mean - not that I want Agent Moose n' Squirrel to lose her job or anything, not really, but - she was hardly everywhere I was, there's no way she got a comprehensive picture of the multi-faceted diamond in the rough that is me.

Your robot can hold glasses? And he doesn't spill it! [ robots delicate enough with things to hold cups! this is the most fascinating thing--

--wait that wasn't the focus of this post, was it? ]

[rockstark]

What, Dummy? Yeah, he's - all kinds of useful --

[and then Dummy goes to wave and spills half the drink]

-- sometimes. Look at that. What is that. Why would you -- gimme that back, you are a tragedy.

[cue one very droopy repentant robot arm]

[doyoufondue]

You named it Dummy? [ tony stark has the most advanced robots and he names one 'dummy' how... ]

Tragedy seems a little extreme. He only has one arm to wave with.

[rockstark]

Yeah. It's slang for a fake. You know - a dummy arm, instead of a real one. I didn't realize at the time that the AI was gonna follow suit.

[heavenlyhome]

I beg your paradon, but i don't believe you had meant to post this here, sir.

[rockstark]

Oh... hey, thanks. Trust me, I'm not too worried. This isn't the strangest thing I've ever done that's inadvertently been thrust into the public eye.

[heavenlyhome]

If you are sure. I simply hope that the community is not bothering you at a troubling time.

[rockstark]

Nah, trust me, I've been bothered by people who aren't even connected to this place at worse times. Part and parcel of being in the public eye all the time and privatizing world peace, you know?

[novicius]

...what is that?

[fasjhfasgjhfas and what is it even doing.]

[rockstark]

What's what? [there's a whole lab of stuff behind him, obviously]

[novicius]

[Sobbing. Tony, you're not helping.]

That thing. That is... holding something? Is that what it is doing? Why?

[notjustathief]

Oh dear, did someone delete your porn stash?

[rockstark]

No, that's like, triple-encrypted. Rule 1: never, ever worry about your Rule 34.
