Checking In
"Anything from the footage?" Steve asked, stepping just inside the doorway between the lab where Bucky was having a physical assessment with Dr. Cho, and the space where Tony was tinkering with something while looking over some of Jarvis' information from Halloween.
"The only thing I could notice was a bit of static for a second shortly after the arrival of the first several guests. All of those guests are accounted for by Jarvis as to their identities. I do have Jarvis looking closer into that static, in case it was covering something. Which given the system, could be, Jarvis isn't known for hiccups in footage." Tony wasn't sure it was something, but it did strike him as unlikely with Jarvis. But it was a very short blip, just a few frames, a second at most.
"Nothing else? No one behaving strangely?" Steve wanted to know about Darcy, about how long they spoke, if they went anywhere together, and where they each went after they left the party, and when that was. He didn't want to just ask Tony though, he still really hadn't told or admitted to anyone, other than Sam, how he felt about Darcy. He just didn't want people meddling, and if Tony or Natasha or Clint knew, they'd probably meddle. Thor might have also, Steve wasn't sure.
"Not that I could tell. I did notice where Bruce looked a little on edge, early in the night and then left. Otherwise, everything seemed pretty normal for a party. If anything I'd say people were lighter than average on the drinking, especially since it was an open bar." Tony paused a moment. Steve waited to speak, as it appeared Tony was having a thought. "Jarvis, can you tally how much each party goer drank, to the best of your assessments, and check it against past parties if you can. Take your time with it."
"I will check the data. Give me a few minutes, sir." The AI responded.
"You think I could have a look through the footage at some point too? I'm just curious. Kind of curious to see what I did all night." Steve was interested in the results Jarvis might have about the drinking as well.
"Sure, you can sit there, or any other terminal in the labs, or your room, and Jarvis will give you access to the files. I think you left a bit on the early side also." Tony had done the looking himself simply because it was something he could spend some time doing, and it was his system and building. But anyone of them who wanted to review logs or footage was free to do so.
"Sir? It would appear that no one had more than three drinks that night. I checked the last gathering you hosted at the end of summer, and there was significantly more alcohol consumed by a significant number of guests at that gathering." Jarvis explained plainly.
"Well, that sounds a little strange to me." Tony tapped his fingers.
Steve wanted to check the footage, but he didn't rush to do it. "That does seem slightly strange, given I recall the last party ending with several highly drunk folks."
"I know how to throw a good party." Tony smiled a moment before pausing whatever he was tinkering with to more closely examine some of Jarvis' statistics.
Steve half chuckled for just a moment at Tony's comment. "I'm going to go check back on Bucky, but I'm going to have a look through all the footage and info also. Maybe I can tell if anything seemed off with me or Sam or something that night." Or Darcy, but he wasn't saying that out loud. Tony nodded at him, and Steve headed back to check on Bucky and Dr. Cho.
