Comprehending Science & Technology, 1st Period - Monday

[imafuturist]

"Welcome to class," Tony said once he was pretty sure the trickle of students was finished. "I know, I know. Monday mornings aren't really my thing either. Bring a lot of coffee. Maybe some for me if you want extra credit."

And, let's be honest,  he'd probably drink it all if each student brought in an extra cup fir him. Coffee was part of the scientific process, you see.

"Today's easy because I don't know who all--well most of you are. We'll have to change that and hope it sticks. Try to be memorable."

Tony went to the board before frowning at the fact that there was chalk there. He was going to have to bring in his own toys for next week. But he soldiered on, writing out: 'name', 'why are you here?', and 'favorite piece of tech?'

Then he took a step back to make sure that's all he wanted to ask before putting the chalk down and wiping the dust off on his pants. "I'll go first,  I'm Tony Stark. Some of you might know me and I might know you. It's hit or miss so far. I'm here to teach. And I have to say my favorite piece of tech, other than my suit, is my phone."

Both of which he made, so.  Grain of salt,  kids.

"Your turn."

"My name is Four and no, not because my parents hate me," Four said, cutting that off hopefully from the beginning, "and not because I have siblings One, Two and Three. Back home, I'm part of the group who works on perimeter security, so I like computers. I think my favorite bit of tech is the microwave, though. Microwave popcorn is amazing."

If someone ever taught him to cook cake in a coffee mug, he might balloon to being a billion pounds.

The defensivness over the name had Tony grinning during Four's introduction, at least. "Microwaves are good. How else would we uncultured be able to 'cook'?"

"Well, back home we kind of do the communal dining thing," Four admitted. "We have cooks."

He'd starve here without the microwave.

"Does that mean more or less food poisoning?"

Four waggled his hand. "It's kind of a wash. I've been cooking for myself since I was a kid, but...I was a kid. There was a lot of undercooked chicken."
