ᴏᴏ1 ( ᴠɪᴅᴇᴏ/ᴛᴇxᴛ ) | ʙᴇʜᴏʟᴅ ᴍʏ ɢᴇɴɪᴜs.
[ good morning, asgard. you are greeted to a singular video, which shows a rather chaotic room in the odin housing unit. it has a desk shoved in the corner, covered in a bunch of spare parts of some cannibalized technology strewn all over the place. but in another corner of the room appears to be something that looks a bit like cooler with a solar panel on it.
tethered to it is a little roomba that has a blinking light, and seems to be attempting to vacuum the place, but is continually yanked backwards by the confines of its charge cord.
and then, once the video shows what it seems to show, a text is also sent out to the entire network, simply stating: ]
READ THIS BEFORE YOU ASK ME SOMETHING INCREDIBLY STUPID:
(1) It's a solar powered generator. It generates something called electricity, which can power things we call machines. It can hold a pretty hefty charge, but it isn't very powerful. I can maybe reboot a battery, and that's about it, until I expand my operation.
(2) No, you cannot have one.
(3) No, I am not building you one.
(4) I'll let you charge your cell phones if, and only if, you bring me any useful garbage you collected when it fell from the sky a few weeks ago.
(5) I don't do delivery.
(6) Don't show up at my door asking to use it. There's a sign-up sheet in the front hall of the library. Go put your name on it and sign up for a time slot.
(7) Seriously, if you show up at my door without an invite, I am revoking your cell phone privileges, and I will use your outdated trash heap you call a smart phone for parts.
(8) You're welcome.
[ what a charmer. ]

Unless they're super techy like you and can built stuff out of spare parts.
no subject
[ #humblebrag. ]
Figuring out what works and what doesn't is half the fun. But if I get what I need, I'll have this city fully decked out with electricity in six months, if I'm still here.
no subject
That'd be pretty sweet. It's kind of freaky how magic runs things here, so I wouldn't mind flipping a switch instead.
no subject
[ at any rate: ]
What's your name, again?
no subject
Oh, I'm Tessa. You?
no subject
What are you looking to charge, anyway? I don't think it can handle more than a cell phone right now, but I might be able to get away with a car battery if you want a portable source of energy.
no subject
( locked. )
after a few (suspicious) moments of silence... ]
Come over.
I'm in Odin.
And is it an Android or iPhone?
[ he'll charge the stupid phone for free. ]
no subject
iPhone. I'll be right over.
Thx.
( action!! )
[ odinhaus is actually quite nice, and tony's room isn't as horrendously chaotic as the video made it seem. there's definitely an organization to the chaos... different piles here, and there, with the generator taking center stage. and when tessa finds him, tony is busy connecting a charge cord to the generator, which seems to be simple enough. ]
Hey.
[ absently, as he disconnects what appears to be a shattered portion of his power suit from the generator, to make room for tessa to charge her phone. ]
Should work just like any other charger. It takes a minute for the phone to recognize the power source, but it'll work.
no subject
It's hard not to look around at everything he's got going on, even if she doesn't understand what a majority of it is, but she focuses enough to hand him her iPhone with a shiny black case with gold glitter across it. ]
So you made like, a universal charger? Wow.
[ Tessa can't begin to understand how most technology works. She doesn't even know what the "i" in iPhone stands for. She told Peter it stood for "internet," but that was just a guess. ]
Did you do this sorta thing back home? Like build your own generators and stuff?
[ They would have loved him back where she's from. What with the zombie apocalypse destroying society as they knew it and all the power grids going down, he could have been in high demand. ]
no subject
[ it won't break her phone, but tony doesn't like promising absolutes. and once tessa has handed over her phone, he plugs it in without much fanfare. it takes a moment, but soon the little battery symbol shows up on the screen to show that the phone needs to charge for a few more moments before booting up completely. ]
Voila.
[ great success! and he sets the phone on top of the generator tentatively, knowing that even though it's just a phone, it's obviously important when you're lost here without much other connection... and he leans against the back wall, crossing his arms over his chest. ]
I'm an engineer. And I make a lot of things, generators included. My biggest interest is eco-friendly powersourcing, but that's not really sexy, so my PR team calls it "power for the people" or something like that.
[ he pauses. ]
But I like to build things, and I'm good at it, so I figured I may as well spend my time imprisoned here doing something vaguely useful.
no subject
So like, wind power and solar?
[ She's not well versed on eco-friendly power sources, but she knows those existed back home; just not in large quantities yet in her area. ]
Dude, people are totally gonna love what you can do. This city is a baby, still. Shouldn't even call it a city yet, really.
[ While she takes note that he's said "imprisoned," she doesn't question it. It's a known fact that a majority of people want to go home again, but even though she's not one of them, she has no plans to piss people off by taking delight in the fact that they have no way back yet. ]
no subject
[ without going into too much detail. it's hard to explain, the creation of elements. and as he fiddles with the wires a bit more: ]
It's possible, but it'll require a lot of legwork. And cooperation, from the people in charge. Whether or not they'd be up to it is still TBD.
