So, it seems that you took my advice to heart and you've found a new friend on this! Congratulations!!!

I realize the information that I gave you previously must have come as quite the shock. Do you have any more updates? Also, my assistant wishes to meet with you whenever you have the opportunity.

I see you've spoken with Hawkeye. Thank you, for that, though I must advise you to not encourage her to be more trigger happy. I'd like to get to know you, and your boss, a bit more if that's a possibility. It sounds like we all may have a bit in common.

	[...] Do you mean Riza H? I don't believe I encouraged her to be trigger happy in any way. I apologize if I did so. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: Pepper P/Roy M flamemustang 2012-11-03 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, her. Riza Hawkeye. You didn't yet, but her main use of defense is a gun. She's my best sharpshooter, probably the best in the entire military. No need to apologize, Miss Potts! She likes to run a tight ship, so to speak. Leaves no room for slacking off. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What branch? Stark Industries has fairly good relationships with all four. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pepper P/Roy M flamemustang 2012-11-03 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, that's right. In most worlds, there are multiple branches of the military. In my world, there's really only one, but we're closest to the Army of this world, from my understanding. Stark Industries? I can't say I've heard of you yet. What sort of work do you do for the military, if I may ask? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What is your world like? No, you wouldn't have. It does not exist outside of our world. [...] I cannot divulge the specific nature of our work but we've held the primary DOD contracts for the past handful of years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Let's see...from my understanding between my world and the one of our Vegas counterparts, it's very similar to the World War I era. Though, where your technology flourished, we studied alchemy. There are many things about our technology that seem behind, according to other intel I've received recently, but our alchemy more than makes up for it.

DOD contracts? I'm afraid I'm unfamiliar with the term. It would seem our militaries are quite different from each other.

	Alchemy? Like [...] magic? Department of Defense. Think of it as the top most leadership of all four branches of the military. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pepper P/Roy M flamemustang 2012-11-03 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	I see. You and Hawkeye will get along well, then. Weapons are her area of expertise. And I suppose alchemy is more of a magic, or so I've been informed before, but in my world it's purely science. We use it for weapons, for everything, really. My specialty is manipulating fire. I'm known as the Flame Alchemist, the best there is in my area. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Pepper P/Roy M runs_the_show 2012-11-03 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, no. I know nothing about weapons. I simply run the administrative aspects of the company and leave the R&D to my employer. I see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pepper P/Roy M flamemustang 2012-11-03 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	Well, she does that, too. Keeps my office running even when I want to slack off. (Though, just between us, I do occasionally misplace paperwork just so she can find it...) A bit unbelievable, isn't it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Pepper P/Roy M runs_the_show 2012-11-03 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	I can see why she mentioned wanting to strangle you then. Luckily, Mr Stark shows little interest in paperwork. Just a tad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pepper P/Roy M flamemustang 2012-11-03 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	Strangle? She's certainly gotten more violent since our war. Before, she'd just threaten to put a bullet in my head. Luckily? I'm always ready for a demonstration, if you'd like. It's quite real, I assure you, and we've even developed a version that's fit for healing, as well. Works better than modern medicine in this world, if you ask me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] I'm not sure how strangling is more violent than shooting. Yes, luckily. He's a computer genius so if he wanted to make my files disappear, he could without much trouble. Is it something anyone could do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She's always with a gun. Strangling is something new, though.

Ah. I may have to take some lessons from him, then. Though, if I truly wanted my paperwork gone, I could always burn it.

Possibly, yes. It is a science and follows the rules of physics in all worlds. Nothing can be created out of nothing. You must put in an equal amount of what you wish to create, and you will receive an equal amount in return. If you're interested in lessons, I'd be happy to explain it more.

	I believe he might be the person to talk to then. I'm not interested in lessons, no, but he might find the process interesting. I would suggest reaching out to him over the journals. His name is Tony Stark. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pepper P/Roy M flamemustang 2012-11-04 12:05 am UTC (link)
	Sounds good, then. Would you mind letting him know that I'd be contacting him? I imagine a stranger reaching out to him to talk about something most view as magic would be...strange, to say the least. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	[the response is somewhat delayed.] Not yet. Higher-ups are still working on trying to find any hidden clues or codes or something in the files. [ ... ] Sorry, it's been a bad couple of weeks. I haven't been back through for more than a few hours recently, if you tried to get hold of me earlier. Assistant? (Reply to this) (Thread)

Good luck, to them. Those notes are coded, but as I said, not nearly as coded as real alchemical notes.

And please, don't apologize. I understand this is difficult, all around. No, I've not tried to reach you. I thought it best to give you time to process everything you heard.

Yes. You remember the woman at the door the last time? Hawkeye has requested that whenever we meet with each other, that she's there. She's over-protective, you know.

	Re: Roy M/Chris R ceaseless 2012-11-04 12:41 am UTC (link)
	Can't say that party helped matters at all. She's here now? I'm fine if she wants to keep an eye on the meetings. Might be for the best, these days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Roy M/Chris R flamemustang 2012-11-04 10:46 pm UTC (link)
	I'd apologize, but alchemy notes are meant to be secretive. Yes, she's here now. I can't blame her for being protective, mind you. Whenever you're free to meet, perhaps we can discuss some of your findings with the Stone on those infected in your world. I may be able to provide insight. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Roy M/Chris R ceaseless 2012-11-05 01:45 pm UTC (link)
	I don't either. I'll try to find a chance, there's just a couple things I'm still getting together. Shouldn't take too long. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Riza/Roy the_hawks_eye 2012-11-04 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	Yes sir, I took your advice. Please do not let it go to your head. It seems I am not the only one who works for an infuriating boss... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Riza/Roy flamemustang 2012-11-04 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	Me? Why would I let something such as that go to my head? I'm infuriating, am I? And I've spoken with the young woman who you spoke to previously. She seems nice. She'd make a decent friend for you, Hawkeye, not that you've ever needed my help doing that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Riza/Roy the_hawks_eye 2012-11-04 10:57 pm UTC (link)
	Why indeed. You have your moments. Luckily for you I ~~lo...~~ like keeping you around. She does seem very capable. (Reply to this) (Parent)
