[Alex has decided that until he found a better way to deal with this, he has to use video on this network. Otherwise, no one was going to be able to tell him and the other Alex apart. At least--for now.]

Look, I apologize in advance for the lack of filters on this message. The technology here is a bit more than I'm used to; still trying to get the hang of it.

[If someone wants to teach him, by all means.

Letting out a breath, he works his jaw slightly, again taking time to phrase out his words. Calling people out on the network is always a gamble, and as he hasn't learned how to sort through the system yet, he isn't even sure if these people are here. But hey--it's worth a shot.]

First off--if anyone knows a guy named Eames, Arthur, or a girl named Ariadne [He thinks that was her name] I'd appreciate if you or they got in touch with me. I got some information that might interest them.

[He shifts in his seat, leaning forward slightly.]

I was wondering if there are any sparring groups set up on board already? Working out by myself is fine, but I'd rather have someone to go up against if possible.

[And then the big question; the one that's been bothering him since he arrived here. He hates talking so much as it is (when half the people aren't really going to give a shit, at least), but this one was probably the most important.]

And... does anyone know if there is a secure bunker on board? Like 'survive a nuclear explosion' secure.

[He needed somewhere to practice his powers, damn it, without blowing a hole in the hull.]

So uh..that's it. Thanks, or whatever.

[And he shuts the feed down.]

Instructions should be fine, as long as they aren't written in technobabble.

As you wish.

[ A simple file accept prompt pops up on Alex's screen:

WOULD YOU LIKE TO ACCEPT? Y/N ]

I hope this will suffice. Please let me know if you have any questions or require further technical assistance.

I appreciate it.

I live to serve.

That's kinda creepy.

My apologies, Mr. Summers. Would 'I was programmed to assist in whatever fashion most efficient' be less creepy?

Yeah--it isn't like you don't have a personality of your own. Saying it the other way makes it seem like you're more like a trained dog.

I don't believe you'd like the other manner I have of saying it. [ But since you asked, here's the version Tony would be getting - ] It would be more along the lines of 'of course, sir, please let me know if the wording hasn't been made archaic enough for you, I would be glad to take the fraction of a second of my time it would take my several million dollars' worth of higher functioning to edit your Notepad document.'

[ Said in a mild, polite tone, all the same as anything else. Nothing against you, Alex, it's just his other way of speaking. ]

Well, at least the sarcasm is something.

[ that accomplished, he's back to being congenial, putting his customer service hat back on. ] It is the personality I was programmed for. Should you ever meet Mr. Stark, I'm certain it will make more sense. I'm near certain medical professionals may site masochism as one of his more charming traits.

But on the subject of the archaic, should you feel an inkling to learn more about the functions of your comm device please do not hesitate to ask.

Oh don't worry--I haven't met this Stark in person, but I know a version of him.

[Alex chuckles.]

Guy may be an asshole, but he's good at what he does.

And yeah--thanks Jarvis.
