[ When the feed comes on, Tony is sitting at a chair. He obviously has the camera resting on a table in front of him. He looks lost in thought and is looking off to the top right of the camera in the middle distance, it looks like he's been thinking very hard. After a few moments he licks his lips slowly.]

So, it looks like that I'm not as prepared for everything as I think.

I've made mistakes here. But that's not really new, I've always been a bit of a mess so really that's a statement that shouldn't really surprise anyone, I've never really been perfect, my track record alone really shows that, and even all my character defaults...

[He runs his hand over his lower jaw. while he takes a breath, realising he was going off track.]

I haven't been taking this place seriously. And it nearly cost someone their life, because I wasn't fast enough. So what I'm trying to say here is that. Well, I have to try harder, this.

[He fidgets with his hands]

This isn't a holiday, or a resort, so tell me... What's the best way to take on the gym leaders around here?

[Tony's been trying to post this for days, there have been a few moments where he's started recording only to turn it off again. So he's feeling kind of proud he was able to be more him than his persona to the public for once.]

If only.

I've seen his records. It would be easier for me if I could just tie him to a chair and threaten him with dust to keep him from doing something like that again.

Yeah, that didn't actually work. If anything he was more determined when he was skinny than he is when he's a super soldier.

[She chuckles at the memory]

He can be determined when he's a wet noodle. You can't determine yourself out of a chair. Especially a chair I put him in, Believe me Carol. He wouldn't be leaving it without divine intervention.

And then, he will be safe.

No, but you can squeeze your skinny wrists out of just about any binding imaginable. Just because he was a noodle didn't mean he forgot his training.

[She sighs and looks up at him]

You can't just lock up people so they won't get hurt.

Would you stop helping him out of my imaginary bindings?

[He finally turns to look at her.]

Why not?

[He sighs]

Okay, I know why not, that's not the point.

[He fidgets with his hands again, feeling himself longing for a double straight scotch right now.]

I need to make a better comm system. one of those prevention is the best defence against forest fires things. Making some kind of integrated bluetooth system for the gears can't be all that hard. I've made more elaborate alarm clocks than the gears at M.I.T.

[And there he gots wandering about the room picking up various electronic things.]

Pep, get the tools off Du-

[He looks over at Pep who is very much asleep on his bed]

... Or I can get them.

If anyone can figure out something like this, it's you.

[She's not going to mention that just because something is elaborate doesn't mean that it works, but now doesn't seem like the right time.]

Maybe not with what's in the room though. We'd have to pay for damages.

[He looks at what's in his hands, and huffs. Then starts looking for more.]

I don't have anything else. Everything I own, is in Stark Tower, which you and I both know isn't in Oz here.

[There's a temptation to throw something, but she's right about paying damages and puts it all down on his table. Because right now, all he can afford is the room. Then he's silent for a very long moment, which considering it's Tony could seem almost too long.]

I don't know what to do.

Sleep. Look at this tomorrow with a level head. If you want we can go out and train tomorrow while Steve's sleeping to get you ready for a gym or two.

Uh. yeah. Sure. No yeah training in the morning sounds great. What time are you thinking?

[He has no intention of sleeping.]

I get up around 5 to go on a run and work out. Normally I'm back by 7 so anytime after breakfast.

You need to sleep tonight. We're going to have a long day tomorrow.

[She knows you. She'll tie you to the bed if she has to. Don't doubt her, Tony.]

[He always knew she was kinky.]

Yeah, I'll sleep, don't worry about it. I'll see you 7:30 then.

You wouldn't happen to have a pair of leg warmers and a headband for Pep? I think with her it's a look she could sell. The Lopunny Flashdancer.

[Carol smiles]

She'd look pretty cute. I'll look into pokemon workout gear.

Tony, promise me you'll get some sleep.

Well, she's Pep, there isn't much she wouldn't look cute in, really.

[After a moment he nods.]

I'll try.

Thank you.

[Carol gets up and moves to the door.]

We'll figure this out. For now we're all safe. The only thing w can do is move forward.

Yeah, it's the only way I look.

[He gives her a grin.]

Sleep tight.
