[Public] Journal Entry, Tony Stark 8/11/13

[om_ironman]

Hey, you know what's fun? Being dragged out of school when you were on your way to graduating so that you can get sent to mutant camp. And by fun, I mean that other thing.

So, hello campers, I'm Tony Stark. Yes, that one. No no, no need for applause, your cold hard cash is gratitude enough.

Lessee what else. I'm 16, I like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain and -- you know what, I'm pretty sure everything about me is already on the internet somewhere. Look it up if you're that curious. Well, aside from the whole glowing thing, that's new and different.

Anyway. Don't be alarmed if you hear any explosions, I'm just finishing up a project. Which, speaking of, is there a machine shop around here anywhere? I ask because of reasons.

Comments

[om_agent]

Oh my god.

Stark. How are you even here? What did you do, how many fires were there and what was the damage estimate?

I repeat, how are you here?

And for the love of god, please no one tell him about alternate facilities. There's a shop that's used for classes. Stay there. Do not go elsewhere. Please do not set anything on campus on fire.

[om_ironman]

Gasp! Do my eyes deceive me? Is that my very favorite android I see? Fancy meeting you here, T-1000.

And I am here because I'm ~special. Unless you're saying the brochures lied, in which case I want a refund.

Jeez, you accidentally start one explosion and everybody's on your case.

[om_northstar]

Jean-Paul Beaubier. Pertinent information also readily available on Wikipedia.

Welcome to the madhouse.

[om_ironman]

Ooh, but I hear people sometimes tell falsehoods on that there wiki thing confirm/deny?

Eh, doesn't seem to exciting yet.

[om_britannic]

Hello, Anthony. As always, it is a pleasure to see you.

[om_ironman]

Brian! Still keeping the stick in the unmentionables, I see.

[om_quicksilver]

I'm Pietro. Welcome to camp mutant, where we're used to explosions. Sometimes, we even like em.

Okay most of the time we like em.

And like Brian said. Whatever you need, someone can probably get. But I doubt that's a problem for you.

[om_ironman]

I promise to only use my explosions for good. And science. Mostly science.

It's better to seek forgiveness than to ask permission, I always say. Or to pay people to go away, something like that.

[om_touchstone]

Welcome to the school, Tony. I'm sure you will find that the school is more than what it seems.

I'm Simon. I mostly spend my time in the medical lab, should you need anything.

[om_ironman]

Why, are there secret tunnels? I love a good secret tunnel.

Oh right, you're the walking MRI yeah? One of the old guys said I should get checked out or something.

[om_aurora]

Hello, Tony, I'm Jeanne-Marie, and welcome to the school. I think Simon is right: the school is more than it seems.

I won't look you up on the internet. I think I will wait to find it all out for myself. That sounds like more fun.

[om_ironman]

Depends on your definition of fun. Half the stuff online's made up anyway, and most of that is way more interesting than anything I could ever do. So.

[om_ricochet]

As long as this glowing thing doesn't mean horrible radioactive death for the rest of us, okay.

Hi. Camper. Or whatever.

[om_ironman]

Why does everyone keep asking that? No, I'm not radioactive, seriously.

[om_surge]

Hello, camper.

[om_ironman]

And you would be?

[om_chroma]

Hello, and welcome.

I'm Simon.

What's your glowing thing?

[om_ironman]

Well that's a rather personal question, sir.

[om_vault]

Hiiiiiii Tony!

I'm Harley! And Vault!

[om_ironman]

And which one am I talking to now? I just ask out of clarification.

[om_justice]

Hi Tony, nice to "meet" you! I'm Vance.

[om_ironman]

Why the sarcasti-quotes, are we not really meeting? Is this VR and no one told me?

[om_diamondlil]

Jesus. That time of year again, I guess.

I'm Lil. Tall chick from Canada who likes to break shit and can't be broken back. Don't touch or blow up my shit.

Welcome to hell.

[om_ironman]

I only blow up my own things, relax.

And I'm pretty sure hell is meant to be warmer than this.

[om_anole]

Um hi, I'm Victor and I'm a lizard kid. Sure you're probably noticed me by now.

[om_ironman]

Have you been dancing around in front of me? No? Then I'm pretty sure I haven't noticed.

[om_upstart]

I certainly hope Xavier's is structurally rated to contain this much unselfconscious self-assurance. I'm pretty sure it was straining already between me, Pietro, the Braddocks, and the ducklings.

Konbonwa, Tony.

[om_ironman]

Hoooow'd I guess there'd end up being a Shaw in this madhouse too? Heya Ninja, how's tricks?
