it's shortly after they spend a day warming up and 'hatching' the squidges, but before they've embarked on their journey across the frozen tundra that they receive the following video transmission. despite his frequent bitching about it to everyone who would listen already, tony's wearing the ALASTAIR uniform for warmth - but they would get a view of his back as he turns away, where he's stitched IRON MAN across the back like it's a sports jersey. he's tinkering with... something that's set up on a nearby rock, but his body blocks it entirely from view ]
I haven't met all of you yet, which is a real shame for you, because you're gonna wish you'd had someone to steal this idea from earlier.
Tony Stark, Earth's Avengers, saved the world a few times, might have heard of us.

Uh, one sec.
