Accepted Application - Tony Stark

Name/Alias: Elie

Pronouns: She/Her

Age: 18

Time Zone/Active Hours: CST

Discord Name: allstarspangled#5326

Triggers: None

RP Experience: On and off for the last 2 years, but for the last 3 months I’ve been consistently active in Marvel RPs.

RP Style: I typically roleplay in paragraphs, one-liners, and text chat. I’m really open to any form of writing.

Regular Reply Length: One or two short paragraphs

Reasons for Joining: I’m a television screenwriting major and really enjoy writing collaboratively with others. I have the time and having the chance to play a character I love is amazing. Getting better as a writer and getting to know my character even better are just bonuses.

Character Name: Tony Stark “Iron Man”

Headcanons for Character:

He’s created more than a few protocols with ridiculous names ie. the “&$&@ it, fire everything” protocol

An extreme sports and adrenaline junkie

His first language was Italian 

Asks for and remembers all of his employee names

He talks about Iron Man and Tony Stark as if they’re separate identities

Casually slipping AA sayings into conversations

Personally doesn’t believe in heaven and hell, but believes if both did exist he would be in hell

Then wonders out loud if he is in hell

Loves children more than anything and will actually slip into an existential crisis if a kid doesn’t like him

Thinks of himself as a “necessary monster”

Insanely and obviously nostalgic

Attempts to come off as smooth, but rambles about economics when on a date with someone he actually likes

If he had to label his sexuality, he would say he’s Pansexual

Nicknames and flirts with virtually everyone (I would love to mix some Ultimates!Tony into his personality AKA flamboyant “darling” Tony)

Acts like he doesn’t take anything too seriously, but actually takes his actions with far too much weight and blame.

Loves romance and grand gestures

Drinks way too much coffee and will actually drink coffee in the shower

Self-sacrificing and egotistical in his way being the best way to get things done

 Writing Sample: (I tried my best to stay away from triggers, but Tony as a character can be triggering sometimes, so I hope it’s all okay.)

This is not a ritual that came naturally to Tony, not at first. Oh, the press claims otherwise, claims that he was a born narcissist, a born sociopath, but he wasn’t made to fulfill a role in the spotlight. Tony was built for building, was born for creating. But regardless of his nature, the nature of survival overruled him. This mask is one that was sewn into his skin from the harshness of Howard and echoing silence from Maria. This is a mold that Jarvis could never manage to save him from, not with the world fighting against him. So Tony knows how to do this; he knows the song and dance of paparazzi and catering to the audience and he knows how to use it to his advantage. Howard had made certain of that.

So Tony falls into his old routine. He hides the hands that resemble Howard’s too closely in his pockets, because their trembling has always been his most obvious tell. He slides his sunglasses over his eyes and tilts his chin at the slightest angle, his blatant smirk twisting up on his face without the slightest thought. His back automatically finds the balance between professional and insolent and his shoulders follow.

This is the difference between Tony and Tony Stark.

In times like these, Tony lives in his hands. He stores himself in broad hand gestures and hidden shakes and the way his fingers curl around alcohol glasses. In times like these, Tony hides. He hides away from the memory of Howard, from the memory of Afghanistan, of the memory of rejection and betrayal.

But while Tony sequesters himself away, Tony Stark thrives. Tony Stark takes the memory of slaps, of yells, of burns, of betrayal, and wields them like a weapon. Tony Stark is far from his father’s puppet, but he’ll be damned if he lets the perfect façade that Howard gave him fade away. Because Tony Stark knows how he needs to behave–knows how he used to be, before he was able to separate his defense mechanism from his identity. These people don’t take to change, not in times like these, so Tony Stark plays to the people’s expectations and Tony Stark behaves.

That is to say, he doesn’t. Because Tony Stark has never been expected to behave. No matter how much he bends to their expectations, their needs, they never see him as anything but selfish. Tony Stark doesn’t mind their expectations much; after all, if they could accept him as anything other than the narcissist he forces himself to be, then they would have to accept him as human. And Starks are far from human. Starks are made of iron, so Tony Stark strides through the sea of cameras and yelled questions just as confidently as he would in his Iron Man suit. Because really, what is Tony Stark if he isn’t a suit?

It bothers Tony, though. It always has. But Tony is bothered, bothered by most things, so he doesn’t pay it any mind. After all, the pieces of him that protest against Tony Stark are just the remnants of his childish needs, just the pieces of himself that he’s never allowed himself to acknowledge. Instead, Tony locks the echoes of a screaming child in the back of his mind and locks himself into his shaking hands.

Because in times like these, no one wants Tony. No one has ever wants Tony. They don’t really want Tony Stark either, he supposes, but they want to hate him, they love to hate him, so he can make that sacrifice. He can keep the child who begs for external approval sequestered to the back of his skull and violent panic attacks. He can limit himself to living in his hands until he can let himself free in the confines of his Iron Man suit. He can let Tony Stark give them what they pretend not to need.

He knows he can do it. He knows he can let Tony Stark take the stage with a storm and drown Tony in alcohol to keep himself in line. He knows that being a ‘narcissistic sociopath who can’t play well with others’ is all he will ever be known for, genius, technology, and Iron Man be damned. This is not a ritual that came naturally to Tony, but he knows it intimately by now. He knows his fate. 

But god, does he hate it.

Bruce Banner (courtesy of @brucebannerdeservesbetter):

Bruce wasn’t surprised to hear there was an alliance brewing without him. He had more experience than all of the other bosses, he had a good front, and he had tech the others could only dream of. Shuri truly showed to be the brilliant prodigy he pegged her for when they first met. The bottom line, though, was that the Banner family was a threat. He could feel them slowly circling like vultures, just waiting for a moment to dive when he was down. That’s why he had to give them a little hello of his own at tonight’s meeting.

The alliance in general wasn’t a surprise. The fact that Peter was the one chosen to take out the dealers was. It’s not that Bruce didn’t trust Peter. He was a very reliant and capable young man who was proving himself more and more every day. It’s that he was, as stated, a young man. Peter was just starting to really get into the field. He was still naive and a little too eager to please.

Bruce trusted him to carry out the mission of course, but he still worried. Not for the formula per se—he knew he’d get Shuri’s hands on it eventually—but for his young worker. The importance of this mission meant Strange’s guy with an impressive portfolio of dead bodies was sure to be hidden somewhere among the madness. So, as a little extra security, he ordered Shuri to follow Peter with a hidden drone.

Bucky Barnes (courtesy of @buckysforeverprincess):

Bucky has a resume of skills he acquired since he began working in the small time many years ago. That list has gotten mighty impressive over the years and continues to grow with each day that passes. Working for Strange has only made those skills more harnessed and with it, made him more deadly than anyone expects.

He heard the body behind him...sensed him with his sharp hearing and the change in the atmosphere. Bucky laid their stealthy, not making a sound or a change in his breathing to signal his knowledge. When he heard the person duck down, he reached over and silently grabbed his goggles that Strange had given him that detects thermal radiation, putting them on and waiting.

The person was trying to be as quiet as could be, but they weren't exactly the lightest on their feet, nor could they control their ragged breaths. Bucky deduced he was just a young kid getting caught up in a man's game, but nonetheless he had strict orders and Bucky's first mission over everything else is to protect Steve. He didn't want to kill this kid, but he would to protect his fiancé.

“I don't wanna kill ya, kid...but you ain't the smartest. You're sweating like fat guy in a sauna, giving up your position. Ya girl must not of accounted for that.” Bucky is holding the gun in the direction of the young boys head. It's obvious he's one of Banner’s and he's got some sort of cloaking device that wizard of his cooked up. She's smart,  it she didn't account for the human condition.

“I can shoot right now and I won't miss...I never miss, but I got plans and Banner hasn't made it to my list yet. So what da ya say, you get nice and comfortable with me and I'll let you live? Choose wrong and you die!” He pulls out the cuffs from behind his back and holds them out towards the kid, hanging on his finger.

“Eyes open...Banner is trying to make a play.” Bucky says through his comm, alerting them to stay sharp.

Peter Parker (courtesy of @katyagsblog):

Peters mind was buzzing as he left Shuri’s lab. This was the most high profile mission he had ever gotten. He chanted Shuri’s instructions in his head, over, and over, worried he would forget something if he didn’t. Go to Georgio’s restaurant, sneak in, get a spot on the roof, inject himself with the serum, take out the dealers, and get the suitcases. He couldn’t screw up the biggest case he’d gotten yet.

Peter drove fast, weaving through back streets and alleys, taking the fastest route that he knew of. He glanced down at his watch. He had 15 more minutes until the deal. Shit.

Peter pulled up in front of Georgio’s ten minutes before the deal was supposed to take place. He knew the restaurant well, and slipped quietly behind it, then stepped through the back door. He found the ladder that led up to the roof. Looking to both sides quickly, he scattered up the ladder, almost like a spider. He peeked his head up amd looked around again. He saw a man with dark brown hair, laying low with a rifle.

“Shit” he muttered under his breath. Peter was going to have to use the serum. The only problem was that he wasnt sure how long it lasted. He should have asked Shuri before he left. He felt like such a dumbass. He decided that he would have to just trust that Shuri made it last sufficiently long enough. “Who am I kidding,” he thought, “Shuri is the smartest person I know, of course she was smart enough to make it last long enough.” He pulled the serum out of his pocket, took a deep breath and injected himself with it.

Peter looked down at his arms. He gasped loudly, then covered his mouth. He watched the man on the roof for a moment. It seemed that he hadnt heard him. Good. Peter uncovered his mouth, and examined his body. Or his lack of one. He decided that ge needed to hurry, and creeped out onto the roof.

Steve Rogers (courtesty of @buckysforeverprincess):

“How's the view?” Steve asked Bucky who was currently laying low on top of a building, looking through the scope of his M14 rifle. “Better, now that I can see that sweet ass!” Bucky said through his com and Steve just rolled his eyes. “Look, just be my eyes up there please. Wanda and I are only to engage if things go south. You watch those rooftops. Any movement….”, “Yeah, yeah. I got it Steve. Ain't my first Rodeo. Looks like you got company.” Bucky said, making Steve look over at the group of oncoming men. He pulled out his phone and saw things were going according to plan.

Strange’s men were to be positioned in several places around the building, and this time instead of Steve, Bucky, or Wanda being the ones to make the exchange, Strange had planned for another one of his lackeys to do so. The whole thing felt off, but Steve guessed it was best for Strange to not have his three most recognized people involved directly with the transfer of goods. The three of them can take care of themselves, but if the deal goes bad, there'd be a chance of losing one them, and Strange doesn't deal in chance.

In the distance behind one of the last of Strange’s approaching men, he saw Wanda making her way towards him. He gives her a smile and a nod right as she makes her way to stand in front of him. “You and I are to cover the front and back entrance. Bucky has us covered on the roof. Once the package is secure, it will be handed off to you. You are to meet Bucky at the rendezvous point and he will escort you and it back to Strange. No one would be stupid enough to take it from you if he's with you. That's just asking for death. Any questions?” Steve knew he really didn't have to ask, the woman knew how to handle herself and was a force to be reckoned with.

“Deals going down boys...package is in play.”

Stephen Strange (courtesy of @askstephenstrange​):

“The deal will be closed soon.”

A glance at his watch told him they had approximately half an hour before the reunion is made. Strange swiped a hand across his mouth thoughtfully. He turned to look at the men standing on the doorway, motioning at the briefcase. “I want to see the case.”

Instantaneously, the man holding the briefcase stepped forward, placing the case on top of his mahogany desk with a muffled thud and opening it to show their boss. Stephen leaned forward, examining the contents intently. Everything seemed in perfect order. “We’ve rehearsed the procedure throughout our meetings many times so I expect that the deal goes smoothly.” He acknowledged to the group, not expecting another answer other than a small, confident nod.

Satisfied with his findings, he reclined back and lightly flicked his wrist. The motion set the man in action once again, locking and retreating back to his former position. Strange regarded every personnel on the room with analytical eyes, feet shuffling silently against the carpet, folding a leg over the other. “This may seem like a simple deal, but what we are about to receive could potentially open up invigorating opportunities for our team. I don’t want to receive negative notifications. You don’t get back at me empty handed.” He raised his voice, demanding. He had to send the message, plaster it clearly. It was doing the job correctly or mess everything up. He hadn’t built his team with the best elements only to fail at a simple enough mission.

Anything could happen.

“Keep your eyes open, check your surroundings. The tiniest suspicions you get on anything, make your moves more careful.” His men replied not with words but wih the promise of a success that they will bring back to the collective group. “Remember the backup plan, in case things start degrading. Obtain the bounty, exchange the evidence from cases on a secluded place and leave as soon as possible.”

As far as he was concerned, he had the plan covered up in every aspect, in case anything were to happen. Saying no more, he dismissed everyone, watching them file out of his studio. As the door falls shut behind the last recruit, Strange leaves his seat, gathering his coat and slipping it on over his suit jacket. The lights are flicked off and the studio is void of any presence.

A message is delivered to everyone on his team.

Deal starts in ten minutes. Move on. SS

Wanda Maximoff (courtesy of @syrihn):

Wanda took a drag from her cigarette. She didn’t like smoking really, but she was bored and it helped calm her frayed emotions after a visit with her brother. There’d been no improvement since her last visit. Not that she had expected any. Wanda had mostly lost hope that Pietro would ever awaken.

She glanced out her tan civic’s window, watching the lanky kid with tousled brown hair at the deli counter. Banner did love his genius kids, but this one wasn’t the most tactical. He was still a little too green in this business. The kid touched his ear, grabbed his sandwich, and headed out to his vehicle. Wanda shifted her car into gear and began tailing the black Jeep.

Strange didn’t much like Wanda’s obsessive need to discover everything she could about Banner, but she didn’t see the harm in these little tails on her own time. This kid was the most recent intel she’d gotten on Banner’s younger recruits. She pulled into a parking lot across from the building the Jeep pulled up to. It wasn’t very impressive, but perhaps there was more to the apartment complex inside.

Her jean pocket vibrated. Digging her phone out she saw a text from Steve come through. Where are you? Deal going down in 30 minutes. Wanda checked the dash clock.

“Shit.” She muttered.

If she didn’t leave now she’d be late to the deal tonight. With an aggravated sigh Wanda took one more pull off the cigarette before flicking it out the window and driving off.

She arrived with ten minutes to spare. Parking along the street, Wanda recognized a few cars belonging to her mob members. She shut off the car and waited, spying on the people making their way to and from the restaurant. She fiddled with the ring on her right index finger. She didn’t like these kinds of meetings; in her opinion they rarely ever went the way they were supposed. The image of her brother flitted through her mind briefly. She took a deep, calming breath and pushed open her car door.

‘Better to just get on with it.’ She thought.

Shuri (courtesty of @call-me-snips-one-more-time):

"Peter!" Shuri greeted when she saw her favorite agent walk through the bullet-proof, fire-proof doors. She went up to greet him, then frowned as she saw the crumbs of a recently-eaten sandwich still on the corners of his mouth.

"Tsk, tsk," she teased. "Eating a sandwich so late in the evening? Didn't anyone ever teach you no snacks after dinner?" She grinned to show she was only joking, then lead Peter over to the table where her perfected serum lay.

"I don't have much time to brief you on your mission, but I can give you a quick run-down." Shuri turned from teasing to serious in the blink of an eye. "You know Georgio's restaurant? On the east side of town?" Peter nodded. "Banner got intel that there's a major deal going down there in..." Shuri glanced at her watch. "...35 minutes. We can't be 100% sure, but we think Strange's people are involved." Stephen Strange's gang of thugs had never gotten along with the Banner family. Where they were involved, bad things tended to happen.

"We need to get in on that deal. We're talking a lot of potential income here, if we play our cards right. What you need to do is sneak in. Get a good spot on the roof nearby. Take out the dealers. Leave with the merchandise." Shuri paused to make sure Peter understood.

"There will be two brief cases. One with the money, carried by Strange's men. One with what we really need: the chemical structure of the strongest metal on Earth." Shuri got a glint of excitement in her eyes. "Peter, if we get this information, we'll be able to synthesize the most vibranium the world has ever seen. Imagine! Cars and buildings made entirely of vibranium. And the information will be entirely in our hands."

"Anyways," Shuri finished nerding out. "You're going to need to take this serum with you. It will render you temporarily invisible, so long as you stay generally still. When you get to your spot on the top of the roof, inject yourself with the serum, and you should be good to go to finish the job."

Shuri smiled, handing Peter the serum and knowing he wouldn't let her down. "You've got this, Parker."

Peter Parker (courtesy of @katyagsblog):

Peter was in a deli, buying a turkey and cheese sandwich with lettuce and tomato, when he got the call from Shuri. He was actually in the middle of ordering his sandwich, when he heard Shuri's voice asking "Agent Parker?" He finished ordering, then said, "This is agent Parker, what's up?" "Your next assignment is ready. Meet me in my lab, ASAP."

Peter's heart fluttered, as it did every time he got an assignment. Even when it was just little things, for him, the best feeling was to feel like he was a part of something. Like he was needed. He tapped the comm in his ear. "I'm on my way, I'll be there in ten." Peter then paid for his sandwich, and left.

Shuri's lab was at a different location than Mr. Banner's headquarters, because all of their most valuable equipment was stored there, and made there, and the deli that Peter was at was halfway between the two, so he could get to Shuri's lab pretty easily. Peter got into his car, a black jeep, and started driving. He ate his sandwich at stoplights while he drove, but tried not to take too long, because when Shuri said ASAP, she meant ASAP. It wasnt long before Peter was pulling up in front of the apartment building. On the outside, it didn't look like much, but somehow, Shuri had managed to make the inside look really nice, sleek and modern.

Peter liked hanging out with Shuri. As one of the younger members of the team, she really got him, and they both really liked science. She was a lot smarter than him, and he knew that, but every time she invented something new, she showed Peter, and explained everything about it to him. He really liked that about her. Everyone else in the gang was nice enough to Peter, but just gave him orders, and never really explained anything that was going on or why he was doing what he was doing. He felt very not in control. With Shuri was one of the only times when he could just feel like he was on top of everything. 

Peter walked up to the door, and buzzed the intercom. When Shuri picked it up, he said "Hi Shuri, this is Peter." She buzzed him in.

Part III.

A Taste of Our Mafia RP

We thought we’d share the first few entries of our ongoing RP so you can get a feel for what it’s like. If it looks like something you’d like to be a part of, great! We’re still looking for members, and you can apply here. 

For background purposes: Our two teams (at the moment) consist of Team Banner—backed by Shuri and Peter Parker—and Team Strange—backed by Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers, and Wanda Maximoff.

Shuri (courtesy of @call-me-snips-one-more-time):

New York. Modern Day. The five families have been struggling for power over the others in the last decade, and tensions are close to breaking. All parties involved can sense a coming crime war, and each respective family is silently arming themselves to the best of their ability and trying to solidify deals that will earn them a steady income in the approaching conflict.

“Yes!” Shuri couldn’t help but shout. After days of working on her latest invention--a serum that could render the injectee damn-near invisible--it was ready to be used. And without a moment to spare. Less than an hour from now, there was a major deal going on in the east side of the city, and the Banner family wasn’t invited.

“Not a problem,” Shuri had promised Banner. “I’ll get an agent there. Undetectable, mind you. They’ll be able to get in, snipe the dealers, take the merchandise, and get out.” Shuri never broke a promise.

Shuri tapped the comm in her ear. “Agent Parker?” she waited until he was on the line. “Your next assignment is ready. Meet me in my lab, ASAP.”
