Jane had been so enthusiastic about the dinosaur expedition Tony might have gotten carried away in his plans for it. He'd put on his full armor in order to be able to fly up ahead if necessary. There was also the chance they'd need heavy firepower on their side. Tokens fit into an empty ammunition pocket in the suit. It amused him slightly to realize he'd made his suit soundproof since the gold coins didn't make any noise at all while he was walking to the front gates. Pepper was being indulgent of his interest in a group outing which meant the Auto Shop had mostly shut down early for the weekend.
There were so many questions to be answered out in the jungle. Tony had enjoyed seeing it on a one-to-one level, but he wanted the people who didn't have anyone on their side to get a chance to see it, too. They deserved the chance to experience dinosaurs, right? Didn't everyone deserve that chance? It was a young boy's dream come true. In Tony's opinion, it was almost an inalienable right. He had planned to take out as many as they could which meant he had a handful of homing beacons which could be pinned to people in case someone got lost.
He hoped no one got too courageous while they were exploring. The winged dog guy had been pretty up-front about the pteradons really not liking anyone flying in their area. Tony had no desire to fight flying dinosaurs in his suit. That wasn't on his bucket list. It wasn't even on his Things To Do Rather Than Spend Time Listening To Steve Rogers list. Tony had more than a few things on that list, too. He wasn't ashamed to admit it. Some guys really got to him and Captain America made him want to put on a pair of the best Bose headphones money could buy and crank up AC/DC until he could feel it in his teeth.
Waving at those at the gate, Tony said, "Hello my fellow travelers! Ready to go into the jungle? I've got homing beacons if you want them and tokens if you need them. One lets me track you if you wander off, get lost, something tries to eat you. The other just gets you out the gate. It's a one-way trip. You can run back in without one. Figured that out all on my own. Thanks for coming out with us! Let's do this thing!"
Tony placed the homing beacons into a pile on the wall beside the gate and the tokens in a second pile as he went looking for Jane. He wanted to check her armband to make sure the JARVIS software was syncing well. There was also the slight concern she might have brought her giant hammer-wielding boytoy with her. Tony wanted to stay on the front side of any Thor-related incidents. The guy hit hard with that hammer. It wasn't like he had a lot of resources available to him to repair his suit in the event an Asgardian decided to tell him to stop taking his girlfriend out to play with prehistoric predators.
