[ enjoying your vacation yet, audentes?  

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.  [ the cavalier delivery manages to mask pretty well any of his current reservations about the word 'hero', or about the Avengers in general, or about being good for his planet and not a potential menace to it, but those who know him are probably aware that it's the usual tony facade kicking into gear ]    Anyway, there's someone else I want you to meet.

C'mon, don't be shy.  The camera's your friend.  Know it, love it.  [ he's coaxing the thing on the rock, and as he steps closer to the camera, where he shifts the bracelet he's set there a hair to the left and steps aside.

this gives them a perfect view of a miniature suit of armor that is currently wobbing on top of the rock.  it's red and gold, and since the head is so large it probably looks a lot like this
stuffed toy.  it is perfectly squidge-sized, but the little guy is obviously baffled by this development and trying to shake out of the thing to zero avail ]

Amazing what you can requisition if you ask nicely.  I'll have to take ol' Lloyd for a space brew some day.   Hear that, Lloyd?  You and me.

This is Sparky, by the way.  He's still getting used to the -- [ he gestures at himself as if to indicate the armor, as the squidge rolls over onto its side ]   Totally safe from the elements in there.  Keeps him toasty, monitors vitals, I'm even working on a food dispensing unit... And the material?  Titanium alloy, great for--  [ with a loud squeak, sparky tries valiantly to get up and winds up falling straight backwards off the rock with a resounding clang, causing tony's head to swing that way. ]   -- falls.

Uh, one sec.   

[ he holds up a finger and steps away from the bracelet, accidentally shoving it slightly askew so that they can't see anymore as he does so ]

[ he has no idea what it is but it's cool looking. ]

So, could you also punt it while it's in there? [ important questions I guess?? It can handle falls so?? ]

( for his part, peter has his own sweatshirt under an ALASTAIR issue uniform top, and very clearly in the video feed it can be seen that his squidge is tucked securely in all the layers with him. it might be sleeping. shh.

peter, for his own part, is Super Impressed by the squidge suit. these people are all haters. )


Dude. That's amazing. How did you manage to put that together in a few hours?

(okay, so that may be the cutest thing he's ever seen. the plain stare doesn't exactly give him away, shiro just looks mildly intrigued while his own squidge lies wedged under the arm of his thick winter coat like a kind of weird football...)

Didn't think there was much I hadn't seen yet, but there it is.

Do you think they're smart enough to operate that kind of technology?

[ not the voice you're probably expecting, Tony. there's a hint of an accent, smooth and casual. ]

Really? The name escapes me. [ says the smile in his tone, but he moves flawlessly to the other subject at hand. ] Though it seems you've created parenting armor.

[ then, to himself. ] A little tacky ...

( it's Totally Fine don't worry about it probably dozens of p parkers in the world!!! )

I made a little sling for mine, but nothing like a full suit of robotic armor. Damn. Tony Stark, huh? ( he makes it sound like people should have heard of him, but Peter hasn't. ) What does earth need avenging for?

Well hell, that didn't take you long, did it?

[ Look at how polished it looks... But speaking as someone who's... met... someone who grew up in a suit of armor, uh. ]

Wait, "food dispenser"? What, are you just gonna set it and forget it in that thing?

That's quite impressive.

Hopefully nothing too serious, considering the meaning of avenger...

( it's weird to come against different versions of earth that aren't his, but he's still wrapping his mind around a lot of things since joining ALASTAIR. )

Thanks. He seems to like it. Or, I think so. These little dudes aren't big smilers.

I have never heard of you.

Your intentions appear to be good, but I do not suggest this course of action.

That's a weird way to pronounce "a way to show off."
