[Well hello there, residents of this fine barge. What you'll find on your screens, is a rather tiffed redhead, looking only just a little like she might be trying to bite her tongue. Without actually puncturing herself.]

Hi- Hello. My name is Virginia Potts, and I've been asked to come and .. work on this ship. [It's only a partial lie. She'd sought it out herself.] That being said, I've come as a warden, and am here to help.

[There's a moment of hesitance, her mouth opening to continue. But then it shuts. ... And she tries again.]

Is there a Tony Stark on the barge?

A bit weird. ...But hopefully worth it.

Really? Not too many .. non-geniuses or superheros around? Did I move to New York and not realize? [Ha ha ha... ha.] At least I'm used to that.

Lots of cops, on the warden side of things. [She looks amused.]

I figured it'd be more like a counseling gig, but that's not really how it's turned out. Us civvies need to stick together.

[didknowthat]

It's not? [She only sounds half serious.] I can get behind civvies, though.

Frankly, I'm not sure what it is.

Exciting, I guess, and not always in a good way. You did miss a nice little vacation last week, though.

private;

[didknowthat]

Somehow, that sounds .. completely normal. [She's always missing vacation time, goddamnit.] Oh good, exciting in the bad way. I got plenty of that back home, to begin with.

... Where's your home, if you don't mind my asking?

I can't say I'm surprised, even with what little I know of Tony. [The guy is very demanding!]

I'm from upstate New York, originally. But I've been at school in Paris for the past couple of years.

[Oh Ariadne. You have no idea.]

Oh! Wow, school in Paris. That sounds kind of ... Really nice.

[Pepper was one for the arts; Paris was a favorite stop of hers, though they rarely had reasons for it. At least curating took her there sometimes.]

I'm from DC, originally. Spend a lot of my time traveling- but I tend to stay in Malibu or Manhattan. Tony has a lot of buildings under the Stark name.

It's a lot of work. Architecture school. But very worth it.

[She laughs a little, shaking her head.] I'm hoping someday a building or two will be in my name. A girl can dream, right?

private;

[didknowthat]

Wow, architecture-- That's amazing. Tony does some of that, actually. I've dabbled. [She chuckles.]

I think you will. I could see more than just one or two.

private;

[buildindreemz]

Hah. Thanks. Nice of you to say so. I've been away from it for a while, though, doing my... warden-ing. Guess we'll see.

So you travel a lot? Have any favorite places?

private;

[didknowthat]

I'm sure if you enjoy it that much it won't be hard to come back to you. Like riding a bike.

Aside from home? Mm. Rome is nice. Venice. A few of the more tropical places; they have a fabulous spa down in Positano, Italy.

Never actually been, but it's on my bucket list.

private;

[buildindreemz]

You've got one of those, too, huh? Mine's just a list of places I want to see. It's about a mile long.

private;

[didknowthat]

There's a few things I'd like to do. I just find taking time off work to be a bit ... daunting, actually.

Tony seems to enjoy monopolizing people's time.
