TONY'S THINGS DON'T TOUCH |
|
"When this is over remind me to introduce you to my friend, Jimi Hendrix. You need a soundtrack for your life." |
|
Tony's great x5(?) grandmother and an all around badass. Well, not really that first part. She's just a kid from another world with an hard life, a disposition aligned with Tony's own feelings and the last name Stark. What started as a joke about being related is something uncomfortably closer to filling the craggy abyss that is Tony dealing with being the last Stark of his own line. So. Yeah. You hurt Arya and he'll probably fuck you up in a cold rage. Good thing Arya can do violence all on her own (this is just reason #1057 why he likes her). | |
|
"I don't know whether to pun at you or ask for you number written on my hand in glitter pen. Is that weird? It's weird." |
|
Arya's older sister. Knows previous iterations of Tony from other worlds. But that's fine, that's cool, he's down with the multiple...him...thing. And it means she already knows what to expect? As a Stark she automatically goes on the back off wannabe young Christian Slaters list, his drones have their optics on you. | |
|
"I'm just saying. What’s the worst that could happen?" |
|
Kid with a truly terrible home life. Latch keys, up at all hours, the works. She comes from an post-apocalypse world herself where she's a child soldier and a clone. Her superiors are running skeevy plans and somehow she's involved, but determined to stop them. Tony's attatched, deathly attatched. It might be her cool demeanor or it might be how like his AI she reflects numbers and intelligence with an understated personality. She is what she is and Tony feels right at home with her more than anyone else. So he's going to be pissed if she goes home and dies eventually. Pissed of the build a dimensional gate of his own to go wreck some faces level. | |
AVENGERS |
|
"I like the new look. Looks good, looks like you have a lot of stories for date night." |
|
Asgardian, god of thunder, hails from a world with technology so advanced it looks like magic. Thor's a nice guy. Proud, but fair, but also approaching things with a down-to-Asgard simplicity that can be helpful when Tony's mind is swirling and eddying in murky details. It's been three years since Tony's seen the man without so much as a text. Obviously there's some catching up to do. Man also has terrible taste in siblings; somehow they keep trying to murder him? | |
NOT TONY'S SIDE |
|
"What's the best thing I can say? Well, you left. I don't have to say anything after that." |
|
The man Tony's father used to harangue him to take after, the myth that went into the ice, the legend that built up the Avengers alongside Tony. Things were fine until they weren't and certain events led to Tony and Steve messily splitting ways. Tony's trying to be...not outright antagonistic about it. But at the end of the day he's pretty hurt that Steve didn't seem to care enough about his friendship that it was easily tossed aside. Play the world's tiniest violin here. Despite this Tony's fairly protective of Steve and tries to soften the blows of life and protect the man where he can. | |
|
"We can't go back. You know that, right?" |
|
Fellow? Former? Avenger. There is an whole can of worms here of Uncool Things Tony is avoiding like the floor is lava and not bringing up. Of course it'll still be there digging at him, but he values Natasha's friendship over knowing unpleasant, ugly truths. If they can have a friendship. He did betray her back just as much as he's desperately pretending he doesn't know she did him. It's a work in progress, but he's attempting to patch things back up. | |
|
"Uh. Hi." |
Wanda Maximoff ☆ hext |
Chose Steve's side. Her parents were killed by Tony's stolen tech and her brother by tech created by Tony's tech. He obviously owes her a debt. He tried to protect her from during a time of unrest against the Avengers, but that worked about as well as most of his people based plans. He has his own regrets and hauntings about seeing her suppressed in a straight jacket in an high security prison, but those feelings are unlikely to ever come up between them. So. For now they're just awkward and hostile, respectively. | |
FRIENDS |
|
"How was your day? You're not dead, so I'm presuming it's a good one. Cheers." |
|
Ex-yakuza with a calm head on his shoulders. Majima has Seen Some Shit and Tony has absolutely no doubt the man knows how to throw down when the time comes. He's one of the few people Tony's asked about their past and as such he's afforded a place in Tony's confidence equal to that honor. He's also one of Tony's go-to people whenever he's getting up to trouble. Who better to have at your back than ex-yakuza? | |
PEOPLE TONY WOULD DRINK WITH |
|
"Okay. But what if I wanted a water chaser and 5 quarts of concentrated hydrogen peroxide? Let's see that come out of your bag." |
|
Sort of a testy literal Santa. He both puts up with Tony and gives Tony attitude about the fact he puts up with Tony. Instant winner of Tony's favor. Noël can make items via pulling them out of a bag as presents for the receiver. It's weird, but more than anything Tony doesn't like asking for things because he respects Noël enough to not want to have a relationship where Tony uses him. Of course he'll explain this when Hell freezes over and then defrosts, so for now he'll just be weird about it. | |
|
"Have I mentioned that jumpsuit looks lovely on you this evening? Perfect amount of jump and suit." |
|
What can Tony say about Merlan? She's pretty, smart, knows her way around a screwdriver and is rarely at a loss in a conversation. She also has a kind heart. Which is something Tony doesn't let himself interact with surprisingly often. Kind of a byproduct of being a constantly at work kind of guy. He likes to flirt with Merlan. A lot. Nothing wrong with keeping your hand in even when you're engaged back home, right? | |
|
"Are you sure I can't just turn your house into a bunker? Lead doors, security codes, acid baths for intruders, the works. It could be a fortress. Of dorkitude." |
|
Reporter, superhero, kind of...Kara. She's an adjective in itself. Anyway Tony is both bothered and vaguely enjoys being bothered by her? Some things happened he feels not exactly, but sort of like an heel for not preventing. So now she's on his anything she needs he'll help out list. Also promised to keep an eye after Bucky for him. Not all heroes wear tights, but the ones who do are good people too. | |
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE THEME STARTS PLAYING |
|
"I know absolutely nothing about anything you are and I don't do Tolkien at 3 in the afternoon so instead— whiskey?" |
|
Does magic, dark magics, kicks some tail, an elf...or...something. Tony hasn't asked. He probably should. Guy's genuinely helpful and hasn't died in two out of two missions. So he's under good egg in Tony's contacts (no, really). When Tony needs help Alex is on his short list. | |
SHOULD PROBABLY MAKE SURE YOU GET BACK HOME |
|
"I've never met a lawyer who wasn't sketchy, but you're exceptionally so. What do you do on the weekends? Coke?" |
|
Lawyer known for some high profile cases from Tony's world. Also blind. Also also seems to have one emotion and that emotion is unexcitably cavalier. It's weird. On the other hand Matt is literally the most pleasant person from back home in ApocaReims, so Tony's rolling with it. | |
|
"I just need you to not be— you." |
|
Horrible excuse of an human being. Misogynistic, narcissistic, probably sociopathic, lacks all empathy— the list kind of goes on. Tony's determined to get him back to their Earth though to face justice. And also he doesn't want mob justice to become the rule in ApocaReims so he's keeping a sort of eye on Kilgrave while occasionally being an asshole to him because he's allowed to do that, he's Tony Stark. F.R.I.D.A.Y. is of the opinion Kilgrave can drown in a bucket of piss, but as an artificial intelligence she can't sadly supply the murder weapon. | |
FUCKING BUCKY |
|
"Did I mention we were alone for an whole month and his face still looks the same? Yes? Well. Let me just mention it again." |
|
Did you not see the group title? Tony tries to put up with Bucky and in truth in some ways they get along like a verbally murderous sassy house on fire. It helps that they're both competent in Getting Things Done in their own ways. That said the days Tony sees Bucky and doesn't want to strangle the life out of him are less rather than more so. It's Complicated. For Steve's sake though Tony tries to look out for Bucky as he's able. | |
THE GENERAL POPULATION |
|
"Um, wherefore art thou, ave Maria?" |
|
If Maria commanded any more propriety the dust bunnies would have straight backs. Nice enough, runs a weapons smithy back home. Hunts man, beast and bad sewing stitches. She has exacting standards. So naturally Tony wants to poke at them. He has as of yet refrained. | |
