I mean, I'm pretty sure at this point they know everything about me. So.
[ he shrugs. the next question makes him frown too, because that's something that's still be bothering him. ]
I was supposed to meet Mr. Stark at the Raft? Uh, that underwater prison they held the Falcon, Wanda, Hawkeye, and that Big Small guy in. Something happened along the way and I ended up here.
But that's the thing, like, everyone here didn't get here by how they thought they did? Apparently, no one actually came here willingly or consciously.
[Congrats. Peter's revelation of who the Raft on his Earth is holding actually makes him look surprise for a moment, but it passes just as quickly as it came.
Once again, none of his business.
He's much more interested in how people are arriving on Iniidae and what the purpose behind it is besides an apparent need to make the planet habitable. One reason why he doesn't trust URSULA as far as he can throw her.
Leaning forward in his seat, Tony rests his arms on top of his lap as he clasps his hands together. His voice lowers as he asks his next question.] Is anyone looking into it?
[ it's funny because peter feels the same way about URSULA. after everything that happened with ultron, he doesn't know how to feel about AI's anymore. except for vision, apparently.
he lowers his voice too, a little above a whisper. ]
I don't know if anyone's looking into it, but I did ask her how we can go back home. Apparently, she doesn't even know how we got here.
I don't know if she's telling the truth or not, but, it doesn't seem like something she's willing to give the answer to.
[It doesn't take much for him to gather that the "her" Peter is talking about is URSULA. Safer not to use her name out loud.
But that answer pretty much settles it for him. He's going to try to dig more into the circumstances surrounding everyone's arrival as well as see if he can find a way to get them all home.]
No, she wouldn't tell us. [It wouldn't fall in line with her programming.] Be more careful about what you say or reveal about yourself around here. The less people know about you; the better.
[ it's... getting a little harder to do that around certain people, but he'll do his best. ]
I don't know if you know already but, we can communicate telepathically here. Everyone can. She can't listen in when we do so. One of the private rooms on the base is also AI proofed, so she can't hear anything in there either. Her reach goes as far as the outer islands, I think.
I know. She offered the modification to me when I'd arrived. I turned it down.
[He's figuring out a way to receive telepathic messages though.]
Who is the private room accessible to? [He's going to AI-proof his own room once he's done building it, but, if there is a location on this base that allows them to speak more freely, it could prove useful for now.]
Let's hope you never have reason to put it on. [But that's all he wants to know from him for now. Anything else, he'd rather discuss with him somewhere outside of URSULA's range.]
Anyway, I'll stop taking up all your time with these questions. I'll see you around, Peter.

[ he hasn't been here that long yet. and he only heard about the room through eavesdropping. ]
But I think Dirk might know? He's kind of like, the lead programmer here, or something like that. I'm pretty sure he has access to the rooms.

[ onto other questions now ]
Do you have your suit with you?

[Class dismissed. He needs to get back to work.]
