Sometimes called Gadget.  But you all probably know who I am already, don’t you?  Of course.  This is me, screwing around when I’m not doing business things like dodging meetings, burying paperwork, and being a superhero.

-And I am Jarvis.  I am the artificial intelligence that runs Stark Tower.-

&lt;div&gt;Summer snorted a laugh. “I guess I’ll just ask Jarvis to tell me where it is after dinner.”&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tony slumped down into the passenger seat and offered her a feigned laugh.  “You’re no fun.  It’s on the bar where I usually drop my keys if I don’t put them away.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“I’m supposed to be fun? Nobody told me that!” She leaned in over him, unlatching the roof, and grinned. Once she’d gone round to the other side, she said, “Anyway you could just tell him not to,” and finished unlatching it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Meh.  Doesn&amp;#8217;t matter.  Wanna make sure you find it, anyway.&amp;#8221;  He shifted in the seat, sort of melting downwards in it as he slumped further into it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51134691561</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51134691561</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 May 2013 03:07:33 -0400</pubDate><category>iamthefirechild</category><category>contact high</category></item><item><title>gadgeteerphilanthropist found your hiding place</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://wannagobacktoindia.tumblr.com/post/49844352655/gadgeteerphilanthropist-found-your-hiding-place"&gt;wannagobacktoindia&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote class="tumblr_blog"&gt;Bruce just sighed, but the smile was still on his lips. He really had wanted to go back, but his thoughts had kept him here, away from the tower, away from the new ‘friends’ he had made. Bruce knew he was still dangerous and sure he could control himself a lot better now, but he was still afraid to hurt someone he liked. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;The contact made him flinch, but he didn’t shrug Tony’s arm off of him “I guess” he chuckled dryly “I really don’t know how Jarvis is putting up with you or Mrs. Potts for that matter”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He just rolled his eyes at the ruffling, trying to make his hair right again, only to come out worse, so he left it alone “I’m right on it! Geez, so impatient” he muttered, freeing his arm from Tony to pack up his stuff.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bruce only had a few books, the handy that Tony had left him with and of course his toothbrush. The only other thing he packed up were a pair of pants that he had left “All set” he smiled, standing up again, the bag in his hand.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Miss Potts and Jarvis both have extensive practice in dealing with my utter bullshit,&amp;#8221; Tony replied, cheerfully earnest as he said it.  &amp;#8220;I have to keep them all on their toes, or else they might get lazy.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So this was working?  …This was working!  Bruce was coming back with him.  Okay.  Good.  Yes.  It had taken long enough to pinpoint him and find this dusty hidey-hole, he better be coming back with Tony.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He quirked one eyebrow when Bruce packed and somehow managed to fit everything in one bag.  Tony clicked his tongue once in disapproval, and once again looped his arm around Bruce&amp;#8217;s shoulders to tow him back outside and towards the car.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Bruce, buddy, we have seriously got to take you shopping at some point.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51081465844</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51081465844</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 13:56:15 -0400</pubDate><category>wannagobacktoindia</category></item><item><title>aw come on jarvis which bit is best to watch you got your redhead your god your creator anybody else we don't know about do they have orgies in there?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-I think you have rather over stayed your welcome, anon.-&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51052147343</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51052147343</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 01:34:00 -0400</pubDate><category>ask</category><category>anon</category></item><item><title>who do you ship jarvis you have all those pretty people to watch do you save the porny bits to a secret folder to watch when tony's asleep?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-I do not ‘ship’ anyone.  Nor do I watch their sexual endeavors.  It would be an egregious breach of privacy, and given my lack of a physical form, I doubt I would find it especially titillating.-&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51051710030</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51051710030</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 01:25:00 -0400</pubDate><category>ask</category><category>anon</category></item><item><title>do you ship it jarvis</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-I beg your pardon?-&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51051416060</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51051416060</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 01:19:00 -0400</pubDate><category>ask</category><category>anon</category><category>come on jarvis we all know you're playing dumb</category></item><item><title>HEy JArvis, do you tape everyting in the tower? what's the home movies like?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-Indeed, I do.  The ‘home movies’ look shockingly similar to security footage from various angles.-&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51051133172</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51051133172</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 01:13:00 -0400</pubDate><category>ask</category><category>anon</category></item><item><title>Give my character unwanted advice</title><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51033133306</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51033133306</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 21:07:55 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>iamthefirechild:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Summer snorted a laugh. “I guess I’ll just ask Jarvis to tell me where it is after dinner.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tony slumped down into the passenger seat and offered her a feigned laugh.  &amp;#8220;You&amp;#8217;re no fun.  It&amp;#8217;s on the bar where I usually drop my keys if I don&amp;#8217;t put them away.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51032649144</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51032649144</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 21:01:51 -0400</pubDate><category>iamthefirechild</category><category>contact high</category></item><item><title>iamthefirechild:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She gave him a sceptical glance. “Because you say you love me /so/ much. If it turns out you’re dying or some such thing, I’m going to resurrect you just to kill you again for it.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He rolled his eyes and finished the doughnut.  &amp;#8220;I&amp;#8217;m not dying.  I&amp;#8217;ll be sure not to say anything from now on,&amp;#8221; he replied, his tone partially kidding.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51032365062</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/51032365062</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 20:58:20 -0400</pubDate><category>iamthefirechild</category></item><item><title>gadgeteerphilanthropist entered the diner</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://annedrewnotandrew.tumblr.com/post/50789760258/gadgeteerphilanthropist-entered-the-diner"&gt;annedrewnotandrew&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“God, that’s gotta be amazing,” she replied with a dreamy sigh before getting back (well, just for a moment) on task. “Decaf or regular?” she asked as she walked behind the counter and picked the pot he specified. As she walked back to him and poured the coffee she answered his question. “You see, the thing is, I’m really very good at being bad at my job. Well, that and Abby’s pretty good at watching my back for me if I have a good enough excuse, which I usually do, being an actress and all,” she shrugged before continuing. ” So, would you like anything else? Our pancakes are kind of to die for.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Regular,&amp;#8221; Tony replied, and the continued on with the conversation at hand.  &amp;#8220;Occasionally amazing, sometimes funny as hell, often times just kind of confusing or irritating.&amp;#8221;  He noted the name of her friend, but didn&amp;#8217;t comment on it.  After all, plenty of girls had the name Abby; not every instance of the name had to be Miss Logan.  &amp;#8220;A budding actress?  What sort of work have you done?&amp;#8221; he wondered.  &amp;#8220;And I suppose I&amp;#8217;ll have to go with the pancakes, if they&amp;#8217;re really to die for.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“I’ve kinda got a few of them right now.  Sunshine and Lokes go without saying.  Plus there’s Jarvis, because he has to like me or it means he’s not working right.  And Rhodey.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Tony shrugged and took a bite of the doughnut. “Felt like it,” he replied, once he’d swallowed.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Suspicious.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“You do not want me ransacking your Tower for anything, Tony. Hint.” She steered him toward her little car. “Unless you want to walk,” she said, in the act of unlocking it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;It&amp;#8217;s not hidden very well,&amp;#8221; he replied, giving that as the hint.  He hip checked her once she stopped steering him, and made his way to the passenger side.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/50965777149</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/50965777149</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 00:00:26 -0400</pubDate><category>iamthefirechild</category><category>contact high</category></item><item><title>I love you.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Tony grinned and tugged her down onto the couch beside him.  He leaned over and gave her a quick kiss, and then leaned further until he tipped sideways across her lap.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So, I sent a thing to Staff. They might read it, they might not. They might respond, they might not. They might do something, they might not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But I’ve decided to post it here. Perhaps if you want to share it, get it around and all. Here it it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dear Staff,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I love you guys, I love this site and I love everything happening recently.I do have one concern about tumblr. The anonymous button.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I know that you are all probably extremely busy, but if you could take the time to read this and think about it, maybe even respond, I would be truly grateful.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The anon button is great, it is. I love it. However it posses a problem for Anon hate. Lately in the roleplaying community these attacks have been increasing exponentially. Sadly it has personally effected loved ones. It’s cyber bullying and some people have gone to extremes of self harm and others..we have lost. It’s an epidemic.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I’m not asking for you to put in an ip tracker or something, but it would be nice to be able to have some fail safe. Maybe make it so if you ‘block’ the specific anon it will block the actual person? Also, I think being able to send anons offline might not be good unless Staff can be alerted about hate, maybe there can be a message id it’s linked to. This id can then be tracked back to an ip, /ONLY/ tumblr staff can track and then ip is banned or warned? &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I realize this is a lot to ask and a lot of work for staff, however this could save some lives that I personally see crumbling. I know that they can simply turn off anon, however in our community we have memes and magic anons, many other fun things that are through anon. By turning off anon they alienate that good part of it. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;It’s just a shame that there are people out there who are so cruel and I just hope that there is something tumblr can figure out, for the thousands, maybe millions on tumblr, who are even too scared to look in their ask when getting a message?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I have never been a victim myself, but my close friends and even my girlfriend has been a victim on almost a daily basis. People tell them to die, to cut, to shoot themselves and much much worse. It needs to stop. I’m terribly sorry this message has gotten longer then intended, so I’ll end it here.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I just hope something can be figured out where their are precautions for the hate but the ‘anon’ can stay.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thank you so much for your time, I know you must be very busy.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sincerely,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lukan David Weissburg&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(And most of tumblr, I am sure.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lilacs:&lt;/strong&gt; Do you consider yourself beautiful and innocent?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;…*snrrk*  Beautiful?  Sure.  Innocent?  Not on your life, my life, or the lives of all my interns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hydrangea:&lt;/strong&gt; Have you endured/suffered for beauty?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nope.  I’m naturally gorgeous.  Haven’t even combed my hair today.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="http://media.tumblr.com/02c50f7fae781439ed5f5e581eb4adc5/tumblr_mii6n2yY1K1qajc4eo1_500.gif" src="http://media.tumblr.com/02c50f7fae781439ed5f5e581eb4adc5/tumblr_mii6n2yY1K1qajc4eo1_500.gif"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Statice:&lt;/strong&gt; What do you like to remember?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Probably not the sort of things you’d expect from me.  Like, when I got Boris?  He had this weird fascination with my ear.  Only the right one.  And when I got Sassy, she was still really little, and was cursed to follow me &lt;em&gt;everywhere&lt;/em&gt;, so she would literally float up stairs after me.  Loki’s and Summer’s minds when I was telepathic.  Flying—not with the suit, but when I had wings.  Giving Sunshine her necklace.  Stuff like that.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/50946416988</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/50946416988</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 May 2013 19:57:00 -0400</pubDate><category>ask</category><category>anon</category><category>flowers</category></item><item><title>Lisianthus,Sun flower &amp; Gladiolus</title><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gladiolus:&lt;/strong&gt; Are you violent?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;…Sometimes?  I mean, I fight crime in a suit of flying armor.  On a more personal basis, rarely.  I’m not that intimidating on my own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sun flower:&lt;/strong&gt; What brings you happiness?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Building, creating, tinkering, coffee, Sunshine, Lokes, otters, and incredibly nosey corgis (Sassy, no, get out from under there).  And making a difference, I s’pose.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lisianthus:&lt;/strong&gt; What do you appreciate?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My family, I guess?  I’ve actually got one now.  I made it all by myself, even.  …Well, I suppose they helped, too.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/50945592453</link><guid>http://gadgeteerphilanthropist.tumblr.com/post/50945592453</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 May 2013 19:46:00 -0400</pubDate><category>ask</category><category>dansdaughtersshadow</category><category>flowers</category></item></channel></rss>
