01 - Tony Stark - New York - Video

[inadvertentdadfigure]

So I get the gist of this, whole Duck, internet thing, I read the manual.

What I want to know is, how has this managed to slip under the radar for so long? It looks like it entered my world several years ago, and then just up and vanished. It looks like I was even part of the old Duck and I don't remember any of it. I guess that's the power of selective amnesia for you.

Or maybe that's just the power of Thanos snapping me out of existence or something like that Kamala kid was talking about. But that's not supposed to happen yet.

Anyway, uh, yeah. Tony Stark, billionare, philanthropist, former playboy, Iron Man, AMA. Ask me Anything for those who aren't into the lingo. I noticed there's some new users on the internet so sure, what the hell. AMA me.

No, but I have been through a hole in space which I don't want to repeat any time soon.

Being in space isn't fun let me tell you.

[justoutrunyou]

Don't tell me that, I really wanted to explore space someday.

Does your universe have a spider-man? He was the last hero in my world.

[inadvertentdadfigure]

Kid, the circumstances of my going into space involved riding a nuke go right ahead with exploring it.

Yeah, great kid. A little impatient but he has a good heart.

[justoutrunyou]

Well yeah obviously that would make it less fun.

A kid...sheesh. Somehow that still blows my mind. The one I saw was an old man. Like older then you.

The you I knew was pretty cool. He taught me how to pour drinks.

[inadvertentdadfigure]

What kind of irresponsible... No wait, that sounds like me. Even if I'm trying to cut back, I still wonder how much some of my counterparts are drinking.

[Tony Googles it up quickly and makes a huh noise]

Looks like I'm one of the few cutting back.

[justoutrunyou]

No kidding? Good for you!

In his defense we were in a really shitty world where we were being forced to fight to the death like...monthly.

The other Avengers were there for a bit but then they all started vanishing so yeah...we weren't doing so hot.

[inadvertentdadfigure]

Well that's crap. Sorry to hear that.

But yeah basically I'm trying to cut back, work on my health and stuff like that. Pepper and I are engaged now.

[justoutrunyou]

Thanks. We fixed it? Sort of?

Oh no shit? That's great! Congrats dude. When's the date?

...wait what sort of wedding gifts does a Billionaire ask for?

[inadvertentdadfigure]

I can't imagine how you just "fix" a life and death situation like that unless you change an entire world scenario. But that's good you did.

We haven't decided yet? Considering were a thing and then on break for a couple of years and then on again when the kid basically made a scene...

Uh, at this point? Cheap and easily consumed from all this stressful planning.

[justoutrunyou]

It was...complicated. Still is.

Junk food, got it.

When you say kid do you mean Spider-man? Ohmygosh are you his dad!?

[inadvertentdadfigure]

I'll bet. You just don't FIX something like that.

Yeah, like, little twix's. I like those.

[Tony jumped a little.] Underoos? God, god, no, I'm not his dad! I mean, he thinks of me like I'm his dad but I'm not his dad. God, no, please no I'm not ready yet for parenthood. Even I have been having dreams of having kids with Pepper but that's besides the point!

The point is, Underoos and I have a working relationship. I keep him out of trouble and supplied with equipment, and he doesn't go fighting supervillains.

[justoutrunyou]

I tried! Really hard too!

[She laughs at his reaction, and his nickname for Spider-man.]

Dude that's...pfft. No supervillains? He really must be getting started if he doesn't fight them yet. I mean my dad knew him for like...ever and he was a super villain.

[inadvertentdadfigure]

I gave him a huge chewing out for trying to fight the Vulture, that's what we called him later on but y'know? The kid did good.

I was going to offer him a spot on the Avengers. Kid turned it down without realizing I wasn't even testing him. At the least, I've got his suit ready for him whenever he needs it.

[justoutrunyou]

Pfft, he'd probably kick himself if he knew.

Have you made armor for other heroes? Or just you and him?

[inadvertentdadfigure]

I was pretty pissed, to be honest. But I was more worried than anything else. Recruiting him to take Rogers out of a fight was one thing but actually fighting someone who wouldn't hold back is another.

I've made tech that anyone can use, but most other heroes have their own kit that they want to use. Rhodey uses his own War Machine suits and all, and I've reinforced the back for uh, certain reasons.

[justoutrunyou]

I don't know if armor would help my powers.

[It looks for a minute like someone's pouring grey paint over her as her body turns to stone.]

This is my usual power. I'm still trying to figure out if there's any others that go with it but so far this is all I've got.

I got this magic egg thing too from another world I went to but those powers are kinda dangerous so I don't use them too much. If I do it drains me pretty good.

[inadvertentdadfigure]

That's a new one on me. I'd have to actually study that to figure out a compatible armor, that's time I don't have.

The best I could do right now is make a flexible suit of armor, maybe some Nanotech actually, another nanosuit like I'm wearing...

[justoutrunyou]

That's ok dude it's not like I need the help right now.

I haven't had to fight anyone in awhile...but I might see if I can use this world hopping stuff to help people out the way they helped me out.

[inadvertentdadfigure]

That would probably be for the best. Can't exactly hand these out like candy right now.

But I'll keep it in mind, you know, for later.
