Crash landing is the only way to make an entrance.

[arrogantalloy]

Who: Tony Stark, and anyone who comes across him.
Where: Somewhere on the front lawns.
When: July 2
Rating: G most likely
Summary: Tony arrives.


[Tony remembers hitting the ground, he also remembers JARVIS trying to tell him something was interfering with the suit. Everything between these two events are hazy]

...JARVIS?

Sir?

Where are we? And how did something manage to down the suit without touching it?

I am unable to pin point our location, sir. There is no data on what caused the suit to fail. Apart from superficial scratches, it seems that the thrusters are currently offline.

Well fix it, JARVIS.

It seems to be wiring damage, there's nothing I can do, sir.

Good thing we're on the ground then.

[Tony sits up on his elbows and looks around the area, seeing a building not too far away, then he slowly gets up. Opening his mask and looking down at the scratches]

When we get back to the tower, I really need to work on a paint that's harder to scratch off.

Keeping focused on the priorities, like always, sir.

Just focus on finding out where we are, JARVIS.

It may take some time.

I don't care, do it.

At once, sir.

But my hooves are soft and I'll be careful!

[She nods sagely.]

I see. But it's like a suit of armour rather than a formal dinner suit. Does it let you go into space?

[arrogantalloy]

I've had a horse stand on my foot once. Your hooves aren't soft.

Yeah, just like armour. Exactly like in fact. Into space, underwater and even apparently into other dimensions.

[insidethechimney]

That was probably one of those freaky horses which don't talk! My hooves are soft! See?

[So she pokes him in the face with one.]

They even get wrinkled if I'm in the bath too long!

Can you go underwater in space?

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah.

[Tony leant away from the hoof after he's poked]

Okay, we don't don't just poke. But yes. Very soft.

Wait, really? They wrinkle? Yeah, that's kind of weird.

Well in space you go under it, over it, around it and in it. But I was talking about the actual water, not some strange supply of space water.

[insidethechimney]

Yes, we do. Want to see me getting them wrinkly? There's a swimming pool and a pond, you can pick where we go!

You need to find some space water! There might be alien fish with a thousand eyes in it. Ooh, we can go together and then we can find a new species each and one can be named after me and the other after you!

[arrogantalloy]

Think I'm just going to take your word on that for now.

Fish with a tho- Okay, I'm not missing the subtle irony of the fact that I'm going to ask this question to a pink talking horse... But there wouldn't happen to be any medication that you have forgotten to take at all? Just putting it out there, because you know. You've got a lot of hyper going on there.

[insidethechimney]

Why would I need medication? I'm the nurse, not the nurse-ee.

[Helpfully forgetting to mention that she's just playing at one what with people getting sick from this event, because she's Pinkie Pie.]

[arrogantalloy]

No one's really discussed this with you before have they? Hmmm.

Wait? Nurse? But how do you...

[Tony lifts his hands and wiggles his fingers. Because really, how could a pony wrap a bandage?]

[insidethechimney]

I've never seen a nurse do that. Does it help heal humans?

[arrogantalloy]

Well, the opposable thumb seems to come in handy, at least from personal experience.

[insidethechimney]

The thumb is the stubby one, right? What does it oppose? Wouldn't it be better for nursing if it just go along with everything else?

[arrogantalloy]

It's how humans grab things.

[Tony picks up a stick to prove it, wiggling his thumb a little]

Yes, the stubby one.

[insidethechimney]

Oh. Ponies can grab things, silly!

[She kicks a stick up from the ground and knocks it from front hoof to front hoof to mouth.]

Shee?

[arrogantalloy]

That's not grabbing, that's hacky sack with a stick you can snack on.

Wait, why am I even having this conversation?

[insidethechimney]

[She puts this stick down.]

Maybe for you, Mister Tentacle Hands, but it's how we do things back in Equestria.

[arrogantalloy]

Fingers. Not tentacles.

Well for thumbless ponies it's going to work isn't it?

[insidethechimney]

[Pinkie decides that this is getting boring.]

Can I try on your suit?

[arrogantalloy]

[Just. Stares.]

Um, yeah no. No one wears this suit but me. And anyway, you're ha-..Mane? Would get caught in it. Not happening.

[insidethechimney]

No, it wouldn't! Pretty pleeease?

[Pinkie decides that yes, it is happening. Finally something to top the discovery of the foot tentacles! But she'll have to be even more cunning.

Here comes the cunning, in the form of her cutest and saddest face.]

[arrogantalloy]

[Still staring]

The suit and I are one, pony express. Would you like it if I wanted to wear your skin around?

[Pokes at her curiously]

[insidethechimney]

Who wouldn't want to wear my skin? It's pretty great!

[She just giggles at the poke.]

[arrogantalloy]

[He pokes her again]

Pink isn't a good colour on me, so I'd be passing on that.

[insidethechimney]

[More giggles.]

Are you more of a purple person?

[arrogantalloy]

[He shakes his head with a smirk then raps his metal knuckles against his metal chest]

I'm more of a hot rod red and gold, kinda guy. If we're going to start talking about favourites.

[insidethechimney]

Red and gold are very pretty!

[She raps on his chest too, taking his example as an invitation.]

Is it just metal?
