03 § video
[When the video feed comes on, Tony is selling the image of being personable. Nice suit, nice hair, and a smile that is inviting someone to start telling jokes.]
Current events seem kind of hairy lately. At least these come in a small package. After some of the other issues we've had, these guys are pretty manageable.
That's not what I wanted to talk about. Anyone else notice that we've got a problem with that? Talking. I mean, it makes sense. We're from different places, some of us are newer than others, and it's a lot to take in. I know some people have already been getting people together, so I figured it's time I stepped up too.
So, hi. My name's Tony Stark. Some of you know me. A lot of you probably know of the other Stark, but for those of you who managed by amazing misfortune to miss both of us, I'm an engineer. Used to run a company. I'm good at building machines. Also one of the guys with a second name and a few extra perks, but that's not important. The point is, we all have different talents to offer and we'll get a lot further if we work together. Just to be clear: I'm not recruiting for anything. If you're interested, we can talk. If not, there's no pressure.
[And with that he ends the transmission.]

I'm glad you're not starving. Although, for the record, I don't think anyone would let that happen.
no subject
My friends wouldn't. Can't say about the kedan, though.
no subject
We wouldn't. We're not that heartless here. And that's kind of the point I was going for.
no subject
Yeah, I dropped a couple pounds, but it's no big thing. I'm working on making my weight class again.
[Which is super welterweight at best, but still.]
no subject
I keep my apartment clean, though. At least as far as animals go. I'm going to put him on the roof.
[No one will notice, right?]
Glad to see you're okay.
no subject
Thanks. But I didn't have that bad a time. I bounce back pretty quick.
no subject
Yeah. It all worked out this time. [Which shouldn't feel weird, but it does.]
no subject
[Bart rubs the back of his neck hard.]
Could we not say 'this time'? It makes me twitchy.
no subject
Mm. But in all likelihood... [It'll probably happen again.]
no subject
[Sighing heavily, Bart nods.] That doesn't mean we have to sit around waiting for the other shoe to drop. Maybe karma's run out of feet.
no subject
What would you rather do? Pretend it won't happen?
I'm trying to be realistic. Although if we're lucky it won't be for awhile.
no subject
no subject
I'm not suggesting we all stay up all night worrying about the future. I'm just saying it doesn't hurt to get ahead.
[And he'll stay up all night worrying.]
