Maeve was in a ridiculously good mood when she got home, as well, enough so that even Gardevoir was unusually happy.
She was looking forward to going to work the next morning, and showed up a little early because of it. |
Tony was still up, having been working on upgrades to his own suit all night. He barely even heard the announcement that she'd arrived above the music.
|
Maeve walked into the workshop, two cups of coffee in hand. She walked over to stand in front of him when she realized the music was too loud to be heard over.
|
Tony looked up and grinned, motioning for Jarvis to bring the volume down.
"Thanks, set it on the table," he said, glancing down at the bit of suit in front of him. |
"No problem," Maeve said, setting down the second coffee. "I gave those videos to Julie."
|
"And?" Tony grinned expectantly, putting the tools down for the moment as he looked at her.
|
"It should be on the network by now," Maeve said. "I've got a bit of a bet with Jules, about how long it'll take to go viral in the SHIELD system."
|
Tony chuckled. "I doubt it'll take long compared to most places," he said, grinning. "You'll have to let me know once Coulson finds out."
|
"You'll know," Maeve said. "Trust me, I doubt you'll be able to miss it."
|
Tony grinned, not worried at all, and finished about half his coffee in one go before he went back to poking and prodding at things in the suit.
|
"Did you even sleep last night?" Maeve asked as she perched on a table.
|
"Uh, I dunno, what time is it?" Tony blinked.
"It is currently 8:18 in the morning, sir," Jarvis replied blandly. "Oh. I guess not." Tony shrugged. |
"That's not good for you," Maeve said. "That's how things like cell phones get integrated inappropriately into other things."
|
"I do it all the time," Tony said with a shrug. "Problems don't start happening until after three days or so."
|
"Which ends up resulting in the aforementioned 'inappropriate integration,' right?" Maeve asked, grinning a bit. "Is that how things like PokeNav happened?"
|
"That one wasn't mine, but it is how video chats got onto pokegears." Tony grinned. "Fortunately I never found a proper way to integrate a coffee machine into a Pokegear."
|
"Trainers everywhere would worship you if you did," Maeve pointed out, grinning. "All of them over the age of sixteen, at least. The ten-year-olds, maybe not so much."
|
Tony snickered. "Well, so far I've got the electricity problem figured out," he pointed out. "Now all I need to do is find a way to make a coffee machine portable, and it can be powered with a Pokegear or any electric-type pokemon."
|
"If anyone can do it, I'd bet on you," Maeve said. "You know, ego-stroking nonwithstanding."
|
Tony grinned. "That's going on my list of projects, now," he said, grinning. Because of course now he wanted to prove that he could do it.
|
"Wonderful," Maeve said, grinning. "Let me know when it moves up the list a little, I want to watch."
|
"Well, after I finish this and finish modifying Rotom's suit, I'll be working on that or making a way for Pokémon to fly, both of which I believe you wanted to watch." Tony smirked.
|
"Right," Maeve said, nodding and grinning. "Come on, can you imagine a flying Wailord?"
|
"I can, actually," Tony said with a grin. "If the person is smart he'll take passengers." He grinned broadly.
|
Maeve couldn't help but snicker at that.
"Seriously," she agreed. |
