It has back up power which should be able to sustain flight for about an hour as long as I don't need to use shields, repulsor fire. Less if I put all the power to the thrusters.
When I built the first reactor for my chest, it would have easily powered a house for a whole year or more. It's had substantial upgrades since then. And when you consider that all it's doing when I'm not in the suit is powering an electro-magnet. It's not like powering the suit is going to cause any major drain.
[Sherlock knows only too well what it's like to get caught up in one's work. Lucky Tony can bring a good deal of his work with him to Wonderland. Sherlock envies that. He misses having something to work on that is that engrossing.]
So what do you plan to do with all this while you're here? Bigger, better, flashier, faster?
[Tony turns, the coffee pot in his hand as he opens his arms out to gesture at himself.]
Nancy Drew, you don't get fancier than me.
[His cocky grin returns before he turns back to his own mug and grabs a seemingly unused cup that he hadn't gotten around to filling with coffee yet.]
Well from the looks of things here, everything I did in my world after I stopped selling weapons isn't needed here. We have all the power, food and medicine we need. Computer technology is pretty much out too. Even though anything I can make is probably more advanced than what most people here can think up.
[He brings the mugs over, both holding the Stark Industries logo on them]
I designed the suit to do many things. Drinking assistance is one think it doesn't do.
[He holds out the mug in offering]
But I guess it really just leaves the leisure sector for me. Never felt the need to dabble there before, so that'll be fun.
Not much to tell--rather, not much I'm allowed to say. The infected party was unaware I had managed to disguise myself as their significant other and unknowingly divulged details of the virus while donating a blood sample for later testing. My means of accrual being... underhanded, though I prefer brilliant, my samples were reclaimed and my wrists appropriately smacked. I could get my samples back, nowhere in Wonderland is exactly impregnable, but I suppose that's a last case scenario for when I just really need to infect someone I despise.
Biological warfare isn’t exactly my forte but neither is dying.
I'm a chemist but coming here has called more upon my knowledge of biology. It's fine, though. Whatever is available to alleviate the boredom.
[He smirks with the mention of his disguise.]
Telling you who she was would tell you who is currently living with an alien virus in his system. But I was a very attractive woman of 5'7" for a few hours.
Maybe I should teach you coding then, or basic engineering. Then you can create instead of being bored.
Believe me, Before here I worked with a guy who could squish my head like a grape if I ever actually succeeded in pissing him off. So knowing some guy has alien chicken pox isn't really that much of a big deal. Though, I'm starting to hope there's a photo of you somewhere dressed like that. How did you even pull it off?
Well, the more the merrier, I suppose. Wonderland could use further injections of intelligence in its populace.
And I see no reason to give you a demonstration of my potion making skills. It tends to make people... unhappy to discover their identity can be usurped just by gaining a snippet of hair. And the number of people who know I have this capability is very limited. I learned the potion from a book in the library and learned many more tricks when I became a potions master in a magical world event. I have plenty of the potion pre-made. A snippet of your own hair and I'd look exactly like you. Any master of disguise knows the real power of deception lies in the finer details. I made an excellent woman--nothing amusing about it--as her boyfriend would certainly attest.
[Tony grins at the soldering iron, then grabs up some of the wire and a junk circuit board, wires and a length of solder wire. He reaches in front of Sherlock to turn it on.]
Without getting technical, it glues things in place with this bit of metal wire here.
[Tony swirls the wire, then holds his hand out for the tool.]
[Sherlock hands over safety goggles first, then the tool. John would kill him if he didn't wear safety equipment and he'll be damned if he's going to be the only one.]
I've seen something akin to it on construction sites but wasn't aware it played a part in electronics. Conductive metal for the completion of an eclectic circuit?
[Tony stares at the goggles for a second then shakes his head.]
Yeah. I, don't like to be handed things, so just put them down. There.
[He gestures vaguely to the whole bench.]
Well you're thinking of arc and tig welders. I have them too, used more for making sure metal stays together. But yet, it's all for connectivity.
And unlike welders, solders don't produce light, thing never gets that hot, also doesn't spit up slag, so the goggles are only going to make you look... Well, it's not a good look when they're functionally useless. They also make it harder to see, not a big deal when things can fly into your eyes, but when dealing with electronics. It's a problem, because of how small scale everything is.
Well you can get to do this. I'm going to get you to connect these two wires to here and here.
[Tony uses the tip or the solder to point at the two areas, then grabs a press lamp and puts it in the middle of the board.]
And I'm going to put this in place here, so you know how it's done. Right?
[He leans over the board but to one side, so Sherlock and see everything. Grabbing the solder wire he straightens out a bit and then touches the solder tip to the wire which immediately melts.]
Right so it's hot enough now. The whole point is to just melt the wire into place and then it cools on it's own and sets. And then you just... Put the iron where you want the wire to drip...
[He sounds distracted as he works on melting the solder into the grips of the lamp. Repeating the action a few more times till he knows it's all good and in place. Then he stands, holding out the solder and the wirse for Sherlock to take.]
Don't expect precision on your first go. It's clumsy work starting out and it's easy to feed the wire too fast and end up with a large blob. But I reckon you shouldn't do too bad.

[Uhg, he sounds like John. But what else is one suposed to say? Emulating John works.]
I can see why you don't bother much with sleeping.
Action;
Well, that's just me getting so caught up in what I'm doing that I forget to sleep, eat, show up to things I'm meant to be showing up to.
It just all gets lost to whatever I'm working on.
[He shrugs and goes and pours himself a fresh coffee.]
Caffeine?

Action;
It's a mostly recreational existence, yes. But perhaps events will bring you something to look forward to. They are my beacon of hope at any rate.
I found an alien virus and had a bit of fun toying with that but I've been rather banned from experimenting with it further.
[He did sort of turn himself into Evelyn to get his hands on it. You’d think sheer effort would count more.]
Re: Action;
[Raises an eyebrow]
An alien virus? Okay, that one you have to tell me about.
Action;
Biological warfare isn’t exactly my forte but neither is dying.
Action;
Looks like some really interesting things happen here for sure then. And you keep saying you're bored? Guess it's a good thing I was kidnapped then.
So who was it you dressed up as?
[Tony raising an eyebrow, curious as to how some as awkward looking as him could pull it off.]
Action;
[He smirks with the mention of his disguise.]

Action;
And no; no photos necessary. I was the spitting image of the woman thanks to potion I concocted. And several hours of training to emulate her.
[He adds a flourish to his hand as he gestures vaguely.]
I wouldn't mind looking into engineering. Fuel systems are heavily involved in chemistry by my current understanding anyway.
Action;
Yeah, this is something I need to see. What was in the potion? Also, just you wandering about like a woman sounds amusing.
Well yeah, non-Stark Industries energy output do need some kind of Chemistry component to them, so yeah, easy enough to show you how it all works.

When can we get started?
Action;
There's an interesting way to make friends, got to say.
I'm ready when ever you are.
[He pats the work bench]
Everything we need is right here.
Action;
[Sherlock examines the work bench and taps his fingertips together.]
I'm bored and you have toys. Lets.
Action;
JARVIS, some music to learn by, please.
From your usual collection, sir?
Sure, but keep it low. You know, mood music.
[Tony sound system starts up, with rock coming through the speakers just loud enough to be heard.]
Action;
Really, he should have known it'd be science set to rock 'n roll.
But that's fine.]
Action;
He also listens to grunge, so really, be thankful.]
Hard to pick, huh?
[He grins, knowing the feeling.]
Action;
What can I meddle with with this one?
[He picks up something that looks like a slender sodering tool.]
Action;
Without getting technical, it glues things in place with this bit of metal wire here.
