Who: Tony.
What: A lot.
When: Early morning.
Where: New York.
Interactions: Open
Warnings: TBA.
"Good evening Sir, you summoned the jet?" The voice from inside the black and silver bat jet was the all too familiar English accented voice of Jarvis. "You were scheduled to arrive home approximately two hours ago. According to my sensors at the mansion, your soup is cold."
Climbing into the jet, a fully armored Tony Wayne sat in the pilot seat, looking at the empty house that was actually home to Arkham Tower. "I had to see Doctor Strangefate." said a clean shaven Iron Bat. He was sure that if anyone knew about the world's current condition, the Mage Supreme would. "I'm not going back to the mansion Jarvis. There has to be something here in New York. Too many things triangulate here. Make arrangements for me to stay here, schedule visits for Wayne Resilient that don't interfere with my investigation." Switching the controls of the jet from A.I. to Manual, he took off.
"Very good Sir. Notifications have been left at the main offices of Wayne Resilient of New York as well as your personal accommodations therein. Is there anything else?"
There was a long pause as the jet flew over the clouds in the night sky. Finally the white light in the eyes of the back armored mask narrowed slightly. "No. I think I can find a gorgeous blonde on my own."
The smallest of smiles was visible on Tony's lips.

Morning had come abruptly as the sunlight filtered through the large windows of a luxurious suite at the top of Wayne Resilient. Tightly clenching his eyes for a moment before opening them, Tony's darted back and forth. From the bed he was in he could see a trail of female clothing on the pristine white carpet leading up to the foot of the bed. Under the sheets sleeping next to him was a blonde woman, likely a model as was his preference, and her name eluded him entirely. With silent finesse, Tony slid out of the bed and headed out of the room into an open living area with couches, foot rests, multiple televisions on the wall along with a bar. "Shower." he said as he walked past the room and through another door that led to an expansive bathroom. Being already naked, he walked into the water that had been running with hot water since the moment the word had left his lips.
"What did you do with the fake me?"
Jarvis' voice, crisp as ever answered "The Life Model Decoy that has been performing your 'minor' duties at Wayne Resilient has been decommissioned and put in stasis last night Sir. It will be ready to continue activity at your request and has every media channel in full belief that Anthony Wayne and the Iron Bat are two very separate people."
Listening to the usual response, Tony had washed himself and begun drying off. "Good. Set my official arrival at the company for noon. Oh, and clean" he motioned in the direction of the bedroom "all of that up." he said.
Minutes later he walked out of the bathroom, clothes materializing on him. A dark red silk shirt covered by a black sports coat paired with black slacks and crimson shoes. When the elevator doors opened he walked out giving a smile and smart nod at a woman who had just passed it. She froze in disbelief as he continued on. A young man on a cell phone dropped his briefcase upon seeing the owner of the company suddenly appearing at Wayne Resilient in New York.
"Don't worry, you didn't get the memo because there wasn't one." Tony said still smiling and pointing both fingers at him. He swiftly walked past the young intern at the desk nearby the main entrance/exit to the building. "Don't get up, I'll let myself out." chimed Tony as the doors opened smoothly and automatically. Fishing sunglasses out of the pocket of his sports coat, he snapped them on and began simply walking into the streets of New York keeping an eye out for breakfast options. After having been out most of the night and missing dinner, Tony definitely needed some food. For thought of course. Who could conduct a competent investigation on an empty stomach?

After a moment Tony leaned forward, his fingers interlocked right in front of his smiling face. "I've developed a program that neutralizes sound. The idea came to me while I was on patrol a couple of weeks back and heard some incredibly annoying bass while in the Bat Mobile. I simply activate the program, I installed it on my phone as well, select any invention of mine as well as a 'target'. When noise reaches that target, the device emits an opposing sound wave to create silence. So say if you were driving and had the program set to a specific sound wave, bass for instance, any bass that would normally reach your ears is cancelled by an opposing sound wave that spares your ears from that noise." Obviously he was dying to introduce his new toy to someone. "Now for us, wouldn't that mean that we couldn't hear anyone talk, but everyone could hear us talk? Normally yes. I simply reversed the function and made the specifications to allow us to hear each other. I chose your suit" his fingers motioned to her chair. "And of course for me, well, you know. And the selected targets are ourselves of course. So when our words come out, they are countered by neutralizing sound waves so no one can hear anything we say, not even a dog's ear would catch it. But I made it so you and I are able to still hear each other. It's actually a simple process." he said as he took out his phone, turning it on and pointing at her phone. "So when he comes back, just simply point out what you want, otherwise you'll look like a silent movie. But in color. With no text."
"So what is this?" he asked as he began breaking into her phone to see what she was looking at.

Of course almost as soon as he was finished talking he was attempting to break into her phone. "Oh would you stop? I was going to show it to you anyway." She told him with a sigh. "You know this is why I have a constant algorithm shift activated. Look; I already have it queued up so just watch okay?" Tony was ahead of Pepper in a lot of ways. But she could always compete with him where computer programming was concerned. After all there was a reason Oracle was a legend in the hacker community.
But for the time being; that had to take a back seat to the video that was playing. The message Caitlin had sent to the world about how she and the "Good Doctor" were going to "help" them all.

"Make sure to send that to send that to Jarvis." he said finally. This would need a lot more looking into. Researching this could take a while and now it looked like more restless nights and re-engaging that LMD. But there was at least some business he could attend to.
Once again his phone was in his hand and he was looking through recent files. "What's this about Starr Corp. or Inc. …whatever?" he asked absent mindedly as he thumbed through the company's mission statement, his head lightly moving back and forth as he mentally read "Blah, blah, blah. and through their technology breakthroughs. "Nice. A little behind, but it is kind of cute." he said as he read on their concepts of nano technology. And then...then-
Tony suddenly sat straight up, his mouth going slightly slack as he stood motionless. Save for his eyes which were darting up, down, side to side on his phone, and they moved to Pepper.
"I need to have a meeting with their CEO." he said almost automatically as their food arrived. "It needs be a good meeting. A really, REALLY good meeting."

"There is your meeting. Time and place. And also-" The woman drew out the word, the way she always did when she was in the middle of sending something she thought was important "The second annual charity Carnival and Date Auction is coming up. It's going to be in Gotham this year."
