+1 Man in a Can (Can Sold Separately)

[hyperverbose]

Coming at you live with part one of your new MCU cast, I bring you a man who needs no introduction, and yet will probably insist on having one that involves fireworks and neon signs: Tony Stark, aka Iron Man. Tony will be entering the game sans suit (although he is bringing this nifty gadget from the latest movie), so apologies in advance for any grousing he might do on the subject. I am also taking him from post-Civil War, and recognize that not everyone has seen it yet. If you would like me to refrain from tagging with you until you can to avoid spoilers, or if you'd just like me to make an effort to avoid spoilery mentions in our threads, please say so here! Just make sure to indicate which characters are yours (usernames help). ♥

As for me, my name is Arden, and I'm excessively excited to be here. I took a long time off from the general gaming sphere to focus on running my own game, so this was the first app I'd written in four years. But the game just looked that good - mission-based teamwork style is exactly up my favorite alley - so here I am, breaking my self-induced exile. I'm available on aim at thegreatmuldini, and would love getting to talk with people & plan general nonsense on Plurk at ardendactyl. Tony has an IC inbox set up here, and I'll be hopefully intro-ing him sooner, rather than later.

SLAMS INTO HERE BECAUSE TONYYYYYYYYYYYYY

hello arden! i'm rika and i play this guy from that one pirate anime who often lights himself on fire. welcome to the game ♥

[hyperverbose]

thank you for the welcome! ♥ One Piece is one anime I don't know very well at all but I'LL BE EXCITED ANYWAY

[dishearten]

welcome to the game Arden! I am Katy and I have Graham here, and Peter Parker!

he is tasm version parker and I honestly don't know if the avengers figured out his alias? I have not seen the movie and I won't see the movie, either. you're welcome to have tony recognize him, name or suit, though, pete just won't recognize him in return!

[hyperverbose]

Thanks Katy! ♥ I love both Graham and Peter sfm, excellent choices.

Tony is the only one of the Avengers who knows about Spidey's alter-ego, so I will have him recognize the name then since that's ok, and he'll ... also notice the physical difference. HIS SPIDER-MAN IS A PATHETIC-LOOKING KID, what is this

[webdesigned]

STRING THEORY MAN STRING THEORY!!!

I am sure that Pete and Tony can get up to Science together. He will be weirded out by someone knowing him will be bizarre but give him a break people knowing who he is never works out for him.

[hyperverbose]

So much science-ing, ok. It'll be even weirder b/c Tony invited himself to superhero mentor Peter / be his tech sugar daddy so he'll try not to hover/Dad you too much. Maybe.

[webdesigned]

Aww Tony that super adorable... lbr he could use a mentor that doesn't turn into a giant lizard. 😑

I am gonna add you on plurk if you don't mind! I'm ~goplayzelda!

[hyperverbose]

It'd probably be a step up. ... Probably.

And I don't mind at all!!

[trenchdoting]

Welcome to the game! I'm Gore, and I play one bumbling Detective Dick Gumshoe from the Ace Attorney video games! I'm excited to see Tony in the game - and I've seen Civil War, so no need to worry about spoilers with me! I hope you have fun here!

[hyperverbose]

Nice to meet you, Gore! Man, I always always wanted to play those games, and it's just never happened. :( SOME DAY...

Thanks for the welcome. I'm pretty psyched.

[warlocks]

OH HELLO I KNOW THIS NAME. I'm Maia! I don't think we've ever RP'd together even tho we've always floated around in the same general sphere with mutual friends. i look forward to fixing this. Welcome to the game!

I play Magnus Bane, who is also somewhat an Eccentric Millionaire trope with daddy issues.

[hyperverbose]

Do you know that we've been friends on Plurk for years now and sometimes I've wondered like... wait, did we ever actually even get to RP together, so I'm glad it's not just me. WE ARE GOING TO REMEDY IT. Especially because Magnus is my fucking favorite and I was really excited to see you and Hannah were playing Malec in this game. I'll just be over here, stalking my ship.

[warlocks]

it is definitely not just you! i see you on tumblr too when someone reblogs you hahaha.

but yeahhh awesome this is v. exciting. i love tony so much. :D

[hyperverbose]

he is the worst and also the best

schrodinger's failure

[selfimage]

who are you again

[hyperverbose]

I swore you were taller.

[selfimage]

that's a trick of the light. it's funny when someone's still taller than you how that seems to happen.

[hyperverbose]

no wait, it was the horns that were taller, definitely.

[selfimage]

some of us don't need to overcompensate

[hyperverbose]

was that a dig on me or a dig on alternate-you






both are viable

[selfimage]

PLAYS THE TWILIGHT ZONE THEME LOUD SO HES NOT LISTENING

[heavyhitter]

;u; i'm so happy that our little pocket of marvel is growing, this is delightful

hey arden!! i'm zee, i do this lady, ramir, who is trying really hard to be a badass hardened criminal, and ashraf/healplz who is a priest that does magic healing because, you know, why not. ramir at least is from a scifi setting and SO TIRED OF THIS FANTASY STUFF, i expect she will want everything to do with someone who actually does technology :'|

[hyperverbose]

ALL OF THE MARVELS

Nice to meet you, Zee!! And oh my god, yes plz, Tony would love to pick the brain of people from a sci-fi realm.





and i mean he'll probably be in need of magical healing at some point in his life because he gets blown up like every five seconds or sth

[heavyhitter]

just don't expect her to know THAT much, ok, it's not like she's a gross nerd like some people

[keystaff]

Hai Arden. I'm super pumped for Tony because clearly this is a great idea, ALASTAIR. Bring in Tony without Pepper. I guess Natasha has to pick up Tonysitting duty in the meantime. But no need to worry on spoilers for me - I've seen Civil War a bit ago now. Congrats on the app though! I know that must have been Something after not doing one for so long!

I'm Caprica and I have two characters here - Sakura Kinomoto from CLAMP's Cardcaptor Sakura manga series (she's from the most recently released chapter with the new Clear Card Arc, so lmk if you don't want spoilers there), and Sorey from Tales of Zestiria. Where dragons are Bad and being the Shepherd is Suffering. Also with added Armatization, aka DBZ fusions.

[hyperverbose]

It's even worse b/c he's here with Steve, so just be glad that ALASTAIR didn't leave the two of them alone after everything completely unsupervised. I mean, I guess it's a good team... rebuilding... exercise...

Anyway, thank you for the welcome, Caprica!!! (Love the name btw but that's because I'm BSG trash) I'm not familiar with either series but that just means there's surprises to be had! And thanks re: the app too lmao. At least I went easy on myself and picked a simple character with a non-complex personality to write about after all this ti-- oh wait. 8|

[keystaff]

Oh boy. Y e a h. Good thing someone else from home is here to supervise. :l

Ha. I have bf to thank for BSG introductions. I have a Kara journal but haven't done anything game wise with her in years, alas. But definitely, surprises can be fun. Basically my characters are the naive and trusting resident magical girl/boy. P much. Both pretty gullible so I'm sure Tony would have fun teasing them.

[hyperverbose]

he's a good person that way...

[keystaff]

The best. Clearly. Most mature manchild. Teasing the thirteen year old and the most sheltered teen ever in Sorey's case.

[figureitout]

hey arden and welcome!! i'm super late to this and i see i already have a tag from tony waiting for me (which i will get to in. like two seconds) but let's do introductions anyway! i'm celen, i've got stiles here from teen wolf and nami from one piece, and honestly i'm super stoked to get cr with tony c: with stiles because SCIENCE and also freaking out because that is tony stark holy shit (stiles actually compared another guy in futuro to tony by name earlier lmao)... and with nami bc all of her art of weather is science and chemistry in her words, good luck puzzling that out tony. and clearly he needs more red-headed bossy women in his life right??

anyway, i look forward to threading with you, and i hope you enjoy the game! :>

[hyperverbose]

LMAO TONY MET RHYS AND IT ALREADY CAME UP so a+ I laughed so hard, you don't even know.

anyway thanks for the welcome!! excited for cr with both of yours (and yes, every woman in his life should be red-haired and order him around tbh).

are you open to me adding you on plurk?

[figureitout]

HDLGJHSKJF AWESOME i'm glad and also clearly need to stalk this thread....

and of course!! i'll go ahead and add you now, i'm unimaginatively "celen" over there too!

[winces]

stumbles in late but hello, arden, welcome to futuro! c: i'm lena, and i play olivia from fire emblem: awakening. tony was always so much fun to watch (like a natural disaster you just can't look away from) in the mcu movies, so i'm excited to see how he'll interact with the crew here! pls don't start a war... except maybe do owo

[hyperverbose]

thank you for the welcome lena!! and yes, he's a hot mess of issues, but he's my favorite hot mess.

i'm sure it'll be fine

just

fine

[winces]

dog sitting in a room full of fire fine
