Pranks (Part 1)
The Chat For Pranking Tony Stank:
8:40 pm, July 27, 2024:
Mischief: Who should we start with?
Skyenet: Tony is probably easiest. I do control his phone...
Mischief: And that will help you prank him?
Skyenet: Oh, definitely. Do u have any idea how much blackmail material Stank keeps on his personal phone?
Mischief: No, but I imagine that it's a lot
Skyenet: It is - and his phone is useful for far more than just blackmail... but blackmail's a good place to start
Mischief: I have no clue what's on his phone. What kind of blackmail are we talking about? How embarrassing is it?
Skyenet: Depends on what photo or video, but a lot of it is stuff that he considers embarrassing that really isn't at all. We could start with this to trigger his amusing reactions...
Mischief: Or?
Skyenet: We could also start with the legitimately embarrassing content and get others to film his reactions... although there are many problems with that strategy
Mischief: Like what?
Skyenet: Well, for one thing, it would require adding more people to this chat, which would reduce our potential targets - and one of the new additions would have to be someone who's currently present at "Avengers Tower", which probably means a member of the Avengers
Mischief: So... add someone who we wouldn't want to prank for fear of retaliation anyway?
Skyenet: Theoretically, except there are ways to prank scary people without inviting their retaliation - all we need to do is frame someone else
Mischief: Didn't u do that already?
Skyenet: Why would I want to fix something that isn't broken?
Mischief: Eh, fair point. I guess we're starting with the not actually embarrassing pics then?
Skyenet: Yep. *smiley face*
Mischief: While u r at it, try to reprogram "Starkphones" to have emojis
Avengers Chat:
8:30 pm, July 27, 2024:
Tony Stank: Why is this so quiet?
Nat: Because some of us were trying to deal with the fact that SHIELD has FTL travel and didn't tell us...
Tony Stank: Really?
Nat: No. We're just worried about having left the SHIELD people and Loki alone and don't want to encourage them
Tony Stank: Encourage them about what?
Nat: It's Loki and the SHIELD people - you know, the literal God of Mischief and the people who hacked us for their own amusement? What do u think we're worried about, genius? Pranking, obviously
Skyenet: Too late! We're back!
Skyenet: *Image of Tony and Pepper kissing* Stank, if affection is disgusting, how do u explain this? Are u disgusting? Or just a hypocrite?
Capsicle: He just dropped his phone and is muttering something under his breath. I have no clue what he's trying to see.
Nat: So... Tony Stank.exe has shut down?
Capsicle: It certainly appears that way.
Tony Stank is typing
Capsicle: Oh. He appears to be rebooting now. I wonder why he is so offended by that photo...
Tony Stank: HOW DID U EVEN GET ACCESS TO THAT, SKYENET? THAT WAS ONLY SAVED ON MY PERSONAL PHONE! I EVEN DELETED IT AFTER U HACKED ME THE FIRST TIME! IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY UNRECOVERABLE!
Mischief: Alright, Stank. U don't need to shout
Capsicle: I didn't realize that Tony hated being caught being affectionate so much... it honestly appears to be a massive overreaction.
Tony Stank: NO, IT ISN'T! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, CAP! WHY DO I EVEN STILL CHECK THIS CHAT? I KNEW SOMETHING BAD WAS GOING TO HAPPEN!
Former Director: Wow. Stark is being so ridiculously overdramatic it's not even funny
Energy: What do u mean? It's hilarious
The Younger Sister Squad:
8:43 pm, July 27, 2024:
Energy: R any of u looking at the Avengers Chat rn? I think I have an idea to begin our reign of chaos!
Black Widow #2: Add Pepper to that chat?
Energy: Of course
Shuri: Why would that be - nvm, just looked at the chat. Isn't that a bit cruel?
Energy: Do u want to troll the Avengers or not?
Energy has changed Shuri's name to Coward
Coward: Fine. Change my name back first
Black Widow #2: No. U need a nickname like literally everybody else
Energy: I have an idea...
Energy has changed Coward's display name to The Better Cat
Black Widow #2: That works
The Better Cat: To the Avengers Chat?
Energy: To the Avengers Chat! *Evil cackling*
Avengers Chat:
8:46 pm, July 27, 2024:
The Better Cat: We just had an excellent idea
Skyenet: We? Who's we?
Black Widow #2: The Younger Sister Squad (TM)
Nat: Oh. Oh, no. This is going to be an utter disaster
Energy has added Pepperoni
Pepperoni: Why am I here?
Black Widow #2: Scroll up
Pepperoni: *deep breath* Really, Tony?
Tony Stank: Um, honey, it's nothing personal
Nat: *Facepalms*
Black Widow #2: Does anyone have popcorn?
Skyenet: No, but I wish I did
The Motherf***ing Cavalry And Proud of It Since the 1980s: Don't worry, Daisy. I've got u covered *Passes Daisy popcorn*
Skyenet: Excellent *Consumes popcorn*
Pepperoni: Did u try to erase all evidence of any of our romantic relationships? Because, if u did, u r sleeping on the couch
The Better Cat: Oooh, the couch card has been played
Pepperoni: Can the peanut gallery please shut up and let me yell at my boss? Anyway, why? I know u don't actually consider affection disgusting
Tony Stank: Of course I don't, dear. It was just a joke. That photo was simply offensive for other reasons
Pepperoni: Like what?
Tony Stank: It was our first kiss! It was a private and precious moment
Skyenet: Ah, crud. At least I'm in space
Skyenet has left the chat
Mischief: Don't leave me here!
Mischief has left the chat
Pepperoni: What r they planning now?
Energy: I don't know
The Better Cat: But this leaves the pranking throne open
Black Widow #2: And we intend to take it
Nat: We're so scared
Tony Stank: Was that sarcasm I just heard?
Nat: I can be sarcastic, Stank!
Skyenet has joined the chat
Skyenet: I'm not giving up that position that easily, sister. Unless you wish to form an alliance?
The Motherf***ing Cavalry And Proud of It Since the 1980s: I'd join such an alliance
Pepperoni: What have I unleashed?
Nat: Horror
