Bassoon Day 1- Evening, video

[runs_on_batteries]

[ooc- Tony's image appears on the ICPs, in the background they can see the dining car where he's been hanging out in. He has a warm, business-like demeanor in his posture and tone.]

Good evening, passengers, I hope everyone is acclimating to the train and the new group who boarded earlier. For those I didn't get a chance to meet, my name is Tony Stark and I came on board approximately a month ago with the first group of passengers. I have a couple requests that I hope you'll afford me.

[New Arrivals]

For those who are new to the Voidtrecker, I am someone you can come to if you're needing some assistance or have questions. I don't know everything you're bound to be wanting to know about this place, but I'll tell you whatever I do know.

In turn, I'm requesting you fill out a questionnaire about who you are and your world. My goal is to determine any patterns among those who have been brought here as well as be alert to any medical needs you may have. These questionnaires are confidental and I won't share with anyone else.

[Current Passengers]

[ooc: This is the IC post about my ooc ballot I mentioned a few days ago.]

For those who are not new to the Voidtrecker, we need to talk. As this train is getting more people, it might be wise that we find a way to keep order amongst ourselves. I'd like us to consider electing a council of either five or seven individuals who we would like representing us. I'll create a ballot and suggestions but we'll keep this democratic.

In addition, I've added two additional questions to my questionnaire . Please, add this to your original responses.

[Manabu!]

Lastly, Manabu, meet me in the baggage car. I have something for you.

Don't you guys come from the same place anyway? Didn't you guys show up at the same time? Why do you gotta answer him then if he already knows??

[runs_on_batteries]

Just remember I'm the one feeding you this month.

[He is going to ignore Peter after that.]

I know you're just being a bratty teenager, but I actually do care what you think, Renee. You're smart and deserve to have as much say around here as anyone else.

[afterburner]

Uh. I know I troll you a lot. Are you trolling me now, Tony? I mean not like I don't deserve it, but...

[there's a mental record screech for you. Say what?]

[runs_on_batteries]

If I answer that will you update the questionnaire and pick some people you wouldn't completely hate being in charge?

[afterburner]

I already did half of that, but yes. [She's not saying which half, but he can probably guess.]

[runs_on_batteries]

Then just why are you bitching if you've already done half?

[afterburner]

Because if I don't bitch, I'll blow up, and you don't want that on a train that's in the Void, right? Explosive decompression sucks. Or maybe blows, depending on how you see things.

[runs_on_batteries]

That would be quite the mess to clean up.

[He finally shrugs.]

I wasn't trolling you. I do actually think you're smart. Your stunt with the wall told me I'm not working with a genius, but yes, you are smart.

[hashtagparkerluck]

I mean, that’s exactly what I said?? He said something like I have to do it because I’m his intern.

[ He’s paraphrasing. ]

[afterburner]

Oh yeah. I get it. You're his intern, you gotta put on a good show for the rest of us, now jump through this hoop, Pete, there's a good boy.

[The sarcasm, she's oozing it.]

[hashtagparkerluck]

I tripped.

[ he says completely deadpan. ]

[afterburner]

Over Tony's big brain, or his big ego? Both are equally likely.

[there's the smack talk...]

[runs_on_batteries]

[So much eye rolling at this incredibly open conversation]

[hashtagparkerluck]

No, it was just because I'm Peter Parker and cursed with Parkerluck. I'm very good at bad decisions and messing things up.

But I mean, Mr Stark still puts up with my dumbass for whatever the reason, so I guess I can put in some time to go do his extra question.

[afterburner]

Both our dumb asses. Trust me, I'm not running with the genius herd, here.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Aw c'mon, don't sell yourself short. I'm sure there's plenty of reason for Mr Stark to like you-for starters you're really sarcastic and fun.

[afterburner]

I feel like that means I'm more of a pain in his ass though, Pete.
