Crash landing is the only way to make an entrance.

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.

I believe these are far different circumstances. The situation is already dire and people are looking for answers and comfort. We are much stronger when we band together, you know this. It will be well worth the effort.

[He shrugs as Tony snatches, unscrewing the bottle of vodka and sniffing it before taking a nip.] Eugh.. [Taking another sip.]

[arrogantalloy]

Well let my play the cynic. JARVIS hasn't even been able to collect data on this place. We can be strong as we want, but we're still going to be Eile.E. Coyote against a painted tunnel without all the data.

[He smirks at Thor's reaction to the vodka.]

And that is why I have the scotch.

[worldsaway]

I do not understand the implication of that, but I'll have you know, I'd much rather go down fighting than sitting idly waiting for answers.

[He's still sipping at it though, taking swigs.]

I've had worse.

[arrogantalloy]

It means unless we know what we're up against, we're just chasing our tails.

[Keeps drinking from his own bottle.]

I prefer to keep things that are worse away from me.

[worldsaway]

I do not believe so. I believe we will discover more with every attempt. You will not collect your information by sitting idly by.

Presently, I care little for taste and more for the impact it will have on my state of mind.

[arrogantalloy]

I try not to get into something without all of the parts of the equation.

Well then, you're definitely on a winner there is that. It's really going to impact on your mind.
