Cisco had a bit of a rough week, toward the end of it he was glad to have a day where it was just work involved. A break from most people. All he had to was science. He practically breathed science. It was a break in comparison to all the socializing he was trying to keep up with. He'd enjoyed things sure, but anxiety kicked in on Friday evening when he was supposed to get together with Kara and Co. He decided to raincheck for the next friday with them. He wanted to do everything, but mental exhaustion wouldn't let him. He needed breaks between gatherings, even if he only stayed a short period of time. He was learning how to cope with anxiety and group things, the shrink had been somewhat useful in that regard. But for the time being, all he wanted to do was to enjoy his time and tinker with a drone that was acting up.

Finally he was getting a chance to. He had a pair of earbuds in his ears. They were some kind of original device he came up with. They didn't have a brand name on them, not to mention they actually fit in his ear where the sound hit. Unlike most air pods or mass produced earbuds. He'd made himself some custom earbuds to wear, ones meant to actually fit him and in his opinion they were perfectly noise cancelling. This particular drone was painted up to look like R2D2 from Star Wars, it had chrome detailing and impressive internal stats if he did say so himself.

Ned was absolutely amazed by Stark Industries, and almost everything that they did there. He had taken to visiting Peter and Tony while they were working on things, and simply watching them. He had expanded his wandering to several of the other labs (with the permission of their owners, of course), until he’d come across one he hadn’t been through before.

From the doorway, he could see a drone with chrome coloring that looked quite a bit like R2D2 and his eyes lit up. That was probably the most amazing thing that Ned had seen in a while, it was beautiful. Ned knocked on the door way attempting to get the other person’s attention.

“Hello,” He called out, and he dared to move a few steps into the room, “That thing looks really, really cool.” Ned practically gushed.

The drone he was currently tinkering with, was probably worth more than the average persons car and Cisco was just casually tightening one of the camera's on it. The drone had several moving parts to it that could easily become dislodged, and this one had done just that. It'd gotten a little confused during the last fake New York incident and hit a wall, Cisco still had to calibrate it to make sure it could also talk to Robbie. His desk was quite similar to Tony's own, a large desk covered mostly in various computers.

A glance upward at the voice, he gave a confused look as he couldn't hear a word the younger man said at first. "Hang on a sec." He took out the earbuds and placed them in a nearly flat case that resembled a tic tacs box. "It's a drone, one of my four." He responded with a small smile down at the item in his hands as though it were a pet or companion-to Cisco it may as well be. "Are you new here? Haven't seen you before." He asked as he nodded for him to come in if he wanted. "Can you take a guess at his name?" Cisco named everything. The only thing he hadn't named was the Earth they were on this time around, Peter had gotten there first.

Ned was in awe of the workshop that Cisco had set up for himself. He couldn’t even imagine trying to be the man in the chair here. Careful not to bump anything, Ned came to look at what Cisco was working on.

“Uh, yeah, I’m Ned. I’m staying with the Starks and Co.” He grinned a large grin. He still couldn’t get over the fact that he was staying with Peter and MJ and Iron Man. He thought for a moment, remembering that he had spoken to someone on the network about drones and satelites.

“Oh, are you Cisco then?!” He asked, maybe a little louder than he should have. He was just excited that he was getting to know people in the area, especially people who thought somewhat like him.

“I would love to say his name is R2, but you know my luck you have no idea what I am talking about and it’s name is like Mikey or something.” He smirked.

And this was just his public access office, imagine what the private one looked like. Cisco however didn't bring anyone there. The only ones who had seen it were Tony himself, and George. It was his lab away from the world. Sometimes he needed that. "The Starks are good people." Cisco had so much respect for Tony, as a friend and fellow scientist.

He was a bit taken a back by the sheer enthusiasm from Ned at discovering who he was "in, yeah I am. You've heard of me?" Yet another surprise. He had to double take at that.

"Right on the first try. This is R2, one of the world's most advanced AI drones." If he did say so himself anyway. R2 had the best techno inside that Cisco could get his hands on. "He helps me city map."

"Yeah. He's like... amazing. I'm glad he's helping Peter with--" And then Ned realized he was on the verge of saying too much again and just shrugged, "You know, Stuff, I guess."

"We spoke, a little bit, on the Network when I first got here. We spoke about satellites a little bit." It didn't bother Ned at all that Cisco didn't remember it. He was too impressed with everything else, and he was very aware that in a world full of heroes and movie characters, Ned was really nothing.

"Wow, that's so cool. Did you build him here? Is he made with alien parts?" Ned was excited and he leaned a little bit closer to it. "I've built a few things, but I'm mostly good with computers."

That comment that Tony was helping Peter with something caused Cisco to raise an eyebrow and smirked. "Right, stuff and things. Not at all related to Spider-Man?" Yes, he knew but he wanted to see the look on Ned's face. "Don't worry about it, it's my job to keep secrets and know who I'm dealing with." Yes, he knew Ned was Peter's best friend, therefore he decided Ned probably knew about him. It was always good to let one's best friend in on the biggest secret of one's life. Being a super hero was no easy task.

"I remember. Wanna meet my satellite?" He motioned him over as he set the drone gently aside. "He's here." Cisco rolled his chair in front of a large tower computer and typed up a few things to pull up several different feeds. One showed Robbie the satellite, another showed amazing star clusters, and a few others showed stats and city streets like a multi security screen feed.

"I did. He has a few, but he's mostly man made. Mostly." He winked. Nobody needed to know what the exact materials were just yet. "Tell me details? Oh? What kind of computer stuff?"
