childhood_surgeryWhile imprisoned here against my will, of absolutely no benefit to my people while galactic warfare ensues, it seems my talents are going wasted. That the Admiral of your fleet claims to be doing this for reasons of ethical correction fits somewhere between amusing and tragic... My people and their allies find themselves locked in conflict against a threat of historic magnitude, yet this very ship, allegedly capable of transdimensional abduction, does nothing to intervene.
How conveniently ambiguous.
Nevertheless, if I must remain in captivity, I would welcome the opportunity to at least exercise my mental faculties. Astral cartography would be particularly desirable. Mapping our present location would, for instance, enable me to know how far we are from the nearest habitable colony.
I am particularly interested in those with knowledge of:
Omni-tool applications.
Mass effect field manipulation.
Mass relays.
Element zero.
Medi-gel.
Biotics.

Must I assume your attempts to retrieve useful technology met with failure?

Working my way in with a few people who have working labs, though.
[... Speaking of, he's pretty sure he promised someone a particle accelerator before the port happened...]

Date: 2012-06-12 05:46 am (UTC)Am I to understand there exists more than one laboratory aboard ship?
For engineering purposes, you understand. Biology is not my primary avenue of interest.

I've spoken to two people, so far. One about the general lab, and another about one they have in their room. I'll let you know which is better, once I get peeks at them.
[He just sort of smirks] Why study what's already wandering around when you can build something better? [Engineering totally trumps biology, he will argue this to the ends of the universe and back]

Date: 2012-06-14 07:53 am (UTC)[He arches his eyebrows, curiously] So, what do I have to do to get an explanation of omni-tools?

Date: 2012-06-14 09:56 am (UTC)Offer me something I want.

Date: 2012-06-19 06:30 am (UTC)Self-sustained energy source. It could power something as big as this ship for centuries before running dry. [And down goes the shirt] This particular design stays with me, but I can get you a modified one to play with, once I get into a lab.

Date: 2012-06-19 12:03 pm (UTC)Why would you require such a device mounted in your thorax?

Date: 2012-06-20 05:23 am (UTC)And that part's kind of a secret. Pretty damn useful, though.
Re: Private - video:
Date: 2012-06-20 12:40 pm (UTC)[Even with the modulation, there's so much scepticism in that voice.]
Very well, Stark. I'll even construct one for you, but this would require... Resources.
[And here comes a much more in-depth version of this information, complete with basic schematics and animations, but probably a lot of references to various things which have yet to even be discovered by Tony's time.]

Date: 2012-06-23 09:36 am (UTC)So long as he can tie things back to tools of his time? He can kind of imagine it. Or at least begin to.]
