Hello! My name's Brandy, and I'm bringing Tony Stark to the game. He's from Marvel's cinematic universe, and I'll be playing him post-Avengers. He can be an insensitive, abrasive ass when he wants to be, which unfortunately is a lot of the time, so I just want to apologize for him now. He's rooming with Riku and John Egbert; all of my sympathy guys. He keeps weird, insomniac hours but he's at least somewhat considerate usually and will try to keep the noise down

I'm on plurk at romancandle, and PMing this journal works too. Please don't hesitate to hit me up to plot or chat or anything else. I'm excited to be here and I'm looking forward to playing with all of you!

Hi! :D My name's Chel, I'm one of the mods here, and I play Willow from BtVS and Toph from AtLA. I'm ecstatic that you brought in Tony and really looking to throwing my girls at him. :3

I do have one question-- how do you feel about fourth walling? It's pretty plausible that Willow would recognize him from the comic version, though she wouldn't know any real details or anything, just who he is. I'm happy to go either way on this.

Oh, and I sent you a friend request on plurk, if that's alright.

[manofiron]

Hello! It's great to meet you. I can't wait for Tony to meet Toph and Willow! That's going to be so much fun.

Sure, I'm cool with Willow talking to him about comic Tony. He'll probably be thrilled to know people make comics about him, even if they get the details wrong. (Although he would get a kick out of hearing that Pepper married Happy.)

Great! I added you back!

[guiltapalooza]

Seriously, it should be great. :3 A few years ago when I played her a lot younger she met a Tony, and they had a cute friendship. We'll have to see what happens.

Sadly she won't know all that much, I think, just the basics. It's her best friend that's into comics, not her-- she just knows enough to make pop culture references. But she'll be kind of flustered to meet anyone that counts as a real superhero after feeling like a pretend sidekick for so long, so it'll be funny. I'll try not to let her feed his ego too much, but no promises. ;)

[manofiron]

Oh wow. I love BtVS, so having the opportunity to have Tony meet Willow will be AWESOME. He will probably also be a shameless, if harmless, flirt at her. I AM SO SORRY.

They can commiserate on the sidekick thing. Compared to Captain America, the Hulk, and actual superheroes, Tony feels like a sidekick sometimes too. Or he could introduce her to JARVIS! He IS a sidekick.

[guiltapalooza]

Ohhhh you know BtVS! Awesome. He can flirt all he wants, but he's probably going to get some embarrassed babbling back, and maybe a jealous boyfriend. XD

There's definitely going to be some fangirling of JARVIS. Geeky fangirling. They can commiserate over sidekicking and appreciate each other's jokes-- not very many people get her references here, heh.

[manofiron]

That's okay. He's a babbler. He understands. And he'll just be happy to have someone who understands what he's talking about, since he's a big one for pop culture references too.

It will be awesome! I'm looking forward to it!

Hi! It's nice to meet you. I'm Dees and I'm still pretty fresh meat myself. Right now I only play this loveable horse douche from Homestuck. I'm not too familiar with Avengers actually, but I'm sure we'll have fun either way. I look forward to playing with you!

[manofiron]

Hi! It's great to meet you! Oh, that's okay. I'm not that familiar with Homestuck, so we can learn together! I'm looking forward to playing with you, too.

[horsepun]

I'm hoping my brother will get the Avengers movie for Christmas or something so I can steal it and finally watch it. I'm pretty sure that is exactly what my brother's Christmas presents are for, after all.

HI BRANDY :>

ps tony should just work on his fire escape

[manofiron]

HELLO!!

He might!

[pursuitofcappiness]

then he'd bother the whole neighborhood instead of his roommates... :| lol... including the old man downstairs

[manofiron]

The last thing anyone wants is this guy running amok.

[pursuitofcappiness]

wow he needs to contain himself

but no i'm looking forward to the stupid domestic things, like steve writing really passive-aggressive post-its on the communal washing machine when people don't take their damn clothes out for a day.

or like sticking his head out the window with his phone against his ear when explosions go off upstairs....

[manofiron]

Me too!

This is going to be so much fun.

And Tony will try not to be too much of a handful. It should only take about half a dozen "KEEP IT DOWN UP THERE"s before he learns.

[pursuitofcappiness]

lmao only

no he should just yell back that he's working and then steve will be nice

and buy him some groceries so he doesn't starve

[manofiron]

He may need some grocery aid. Because getting them himself? HOW DOES HE DO THIS?

[pursuitofcappiness]

they should both go together and be useless since everything's probably set up weird in the grocery store and steve can't believe how much shit you can get at one

tony should accidentally dye all his socks pink...

[manofiron]

Yes! I am totally down for that!

He probably will. Because seriously, he has to do his own laundry? Really?????

[pursuitofcappiness]

Man Steve is just grateful there's laundry facilities in the building. Do you have any idea what it's like being a skinny kid trekking through slushy Brooklyn snow to get to the laundromat and then having to haul the laundry up like 4 flights of stairs

didn't think so!!

i wanted to offer steve doing their laundry together to save two trips but that sounds so fucking married

[manofiron]

Sorry, man. Tony's still lost on the fact that clothes don't magically wash and put themselves away thanks to the efforts of other people.

Tony would be like, okay, sure, great! No remorse or guilt whatsoever.

[pursuitofcappiness]

i can see it now, the moment when tony's roommates start coming to steve when tony hasn't done his dishes in a week

[erfingi]

Hello Brady! I'm Shady and have the most insane kicked-puppy something, Loki. I've taken him pre-Avengers, so he's not absolutely bat-shit insane... but pretty crazy, anyways.

Feel free to add me on plurk or send me an AIM message (though let me know ahead of time) if you want to plot or such!

[manofiron]

Hello! Oh man, that's awesome. There will be so much confusion and wtfery going on at Tony's end when he meets him again.

I don't use AIM that much, but I will definitely add you on plurk!

[erfingi]

Yes, especially when Loki doesn't know who Tony is~

...Now with the real journal.

[shadowslide]

Heya, pretty much bamfed due to RL, so I missed this, but WELCOME ROOMIE!

Hi Brandy, I'm Myth and I play Riku here. Riku's from the Kingdom Hearts collective and particularly Dream Drop Distance. Tony is therefore welcome to discover the joys of having Dream Eaters underfoot, since Riku probably lets them run amok in the room. >.> John doesn't seem to mind, at least. Dream Eaters are.... like pokemon, basically, and range from cute and fluffy (sheep dreameater, casts sleep spells, natch) to huge and ferocious (T-rex, likes to squish things). Personality-wise, Riku doesn't take crap and will snark back, but he's overall pretty chill with a protective streak that goes for miles.

I have nothing appropriate for meeting genius-billionaire-philanthrophist-bastards Tony so.
