Friendsgiving - Apartment Above Stark Industries, Saturday Evening

[imafuturist]

Well, it looked like this dinner party was going to either be dead or the strangest one that Tony had thrown in a long time, just based on how he woke up this morning.

But the invites had been sent and there was a catered turkey all ready to be eaten. And mama didn't raise no quitter, so here Tony was. Soldiering on through One Of Those Weekends.

"...oh god, should I have childproofed the cabinets?" he asked himself, staring at his completely not kid-friendly apartment.

Yeah, this would be a great party.

[[Paaaaarty! Come on by!]]

"Think it means somethin' different now," he said.

"What does it mean to you?" Alec asked, suspicious.

"Are you in the circus?" Steve asked.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[geniuswithasmartphone]

"Naw?" Alec looked confused. "Why would I be?"

[That's fine, DW, don't post. I don't even care.]

"A geek is another word for a circus freak," Steve said. "Like the tattooed lady and stuff."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

"No way!" Alec said. "A geek is a nerd! Like with computers an' stuff!"

"...a what?" Steve asked.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[geniuswithasmartphone]

"A computer!" Alec explained, his fingers moving in the air like he was typing on an invisible keyboard. "You know, the screen, the keys, all the information inside? Internet?"

Very helpful, Alec.

Steve just looked blank. "No?"

Get used to feeling lost, Steve. Just sayin'.

He had a tiny notebook for a reason, dammit.

"How don't you know what a computer is?" Beat. "You Amish?"

To be fair, Alec had only the vaguest idea of what the Amish were, but that could explain the milkman, the lack of good cereal, and computers, right?

"No, I'm Irish," Steve said, still looking confused.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[geniuswithasmartphone]

"Irish people got computers though!"

...Probably.
