"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."

Ready for science.

C'mon. Make it interesting.

For he was there and drinking way too much coffee for his health.

It's too cold here.

Johnny Storm

"I'm Johnny Storm, flame on," Johnny said casually as he stood up so as not to burn his desk. What? Tony wanted memorable. "I'm here because I have a bet with my sister to see if I retained anything from all of my science tutoring over the years. I'm betting no, but if I do well, I'll get a prototype car designed by someone at the Baxter Building. And my favorite piece of tech is that car that I want so badly. Flame off."

Four

"Well, if it's Reed designing it, I'm sure it'll be destroyed after it's stolen by the mole people or something ridiculous," Tony replied. Because his Reed wasn't crazy or evil.

That he knew of.

"Hi, Johnny."

Barry Ween

Barry shrugged when it came time for him to talk. "My name is Barry Ween. I'm here because there have apparently been some other Starks here and I wanted to see what you were all about. And my favorite piece of tech is my image inducer."

And with that he pressed a button on his wristband. His appearance swiftly changed via hologram to Ricky Schroeder. From the Silver Spoon years.

"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.

Cosette Fauchelevent

"Hello, it's nice to meet you, Mister Stark," said Cosette with a nod of greeting. "My name is Cosette, and this place is home now. We came from Paris before that, though, and it was 1829 when we left there a year ago."

She paused and laughed. "Goodness, has it really been an entire year already?"

Ahem. Sorry about the digression.

"And so you might be able to imagine, science and technology are still rather new to me, but that only makes them more interesting." Because she was a gigantic nerd. Who talked a lot, sorry, Tony. "I'm rather fond of most of it that I've encountered so far, but my phone may be my favorite, since I can look things up wherever I go, and take pictures, and . . . so many things I can do with something so small."

Again, Tony, sorry about all the talking.

"Other Starks here?" Tony asked, eyeing the hologram critically.

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'?"

Gwen Stacy

Hey, now. No need to apologize with the time travel and all. Just don't end up being a genocidal dictator or anything.

"Tony, please. Only my employees call me Mr. Stark. And reporters. Sometimes SHIELD when I've done something they don't like. So, all the time." He had a gift! "Anyway, let me know when things get too... technical and I'll try to rein it in."

"I'm Gwen Stacy, and I'm part of the smartphone generation," she said. All the tech she could ever need! "I know you, but I'm not sure you know me? I dunno, alternate universe things are confusing. I'm here because my guardian thought it'd be a good idea to take your class."

At least Aunt May wasn't inviting any Tonys to everything yet.

Excuse you, that would be adorable and so awkward for Tony.

"Well, I'm hoping it's a Starkphone then," Tony replied solemnly.

"I'm pretty sure there were a couple versions of you here before," Barry said with a shrug as he deactivated the inducer. "Or at least it seemed that way from the news podcasts."

Given her canon, that would be the height of irony.

Which meant that there was probably an alternate universe out there where exactly that had happened.

"I'll make sure to do that," Cosette said, "but I'll make sure not to be too much of a nuisance about it."

"I'm sure it would be if we had those," Gwen said.

If he wanted to push any of those off on his students...

"I'll have to look into those." Meaning: he'd have Jarvis look for important information.

And find one of two abandoned labs!

That would be the best Cosette to ever be, let's be honest.

"Nonsense. I've dealt with a magic loving and tech hating Norse god and a man from the 40's who routinely asks the protectionist to fix the image when we see satellite footage. I can handle a few questions."

"..." You had him there, Gwen. "I do need some beta testers for the new batch."
