((This is Jess packing to go on the boat ride with Ezio and Indiana Jones))
Jess sat at the end of the bed staring out the window, thinking about everything and anything she could.
She had tried to convince Indiana to take a plane, it would cost less and take less time, but he'd insisted that the shock of the technology might be too much for Ezio. So instead they were taking a boat, she hated boats, and she hated being out at sea with probably no cell coverage.
And no cell coverage meant no wifi, which meant no contact with Tony.
Or anyone.
Sighing she pushed her head in to her hands.

Tony came into the room just then.
He didn't really like it, not with Whiplash out there...but at the same time, he didn't want to hover and be a nuisance like this guy dressed like a bat would.
"You'll be careful, of course. I don't have to warn you about the bullshit of this world."

Jess looked up with a start and laughed "I'll have a highly trained assassin and a highly trained archeologist at my side, I think if anything happens on my boat right, I'll be okay."
Patting the bed next to her she smiled "It wont be that long of a boat ride, but I have to get them to Paris, if I had a choice I assure you I would not be going. And meeting them there is not an option, if I know anything about either, is that, they'd find a way to get side tracked and quickly."

He sat down next to her.
"I still don't see why they couldn't get a plane. You could've used mine."

"Ezio is from the 1400's, the car was almost too much, he kept trying to ride on top of it."

Tony snorted.
"Yeah, all right, bad idea."
He threw an arm around her shoulders and kissed her cheek.
"So, if there's trouble, give 'em hell."

"You know damn well I will" she leaned her head on his shoulder and sighed "so what do you have planned?"

"Pepper discovered the New York office of Stark Industries. Wants me to go over it with her a bit since she's not a familiar with it. So it looks like I'm going to the Big Apple."

"Sounds horribly boring" she laughed "but it'd be nice to see New York, especially after the Manhattan incident, I hear it's a cornucopia of love over these days." From anyone else, this last sentence might have sounded rude or even unfeeling, but Jess said it with such honestly and sadness it was hard to believe that she would even feel any different.

He gave her a blank look.
"What incident?"

"You mean you-" she'd almost forgotten about this world for a moment.
Being in it so long could do that to you.
Pulling up her laptop she pulled up some videos and news reports "New Years Eve, a meta human named Dr. Manhattan, once known as Dr. Jon Osterman, arrived in time square, you remember how I told you that certain cities were a bit more advanced than London or Paris? Well New York here is still stuck in 1985, anyway, Dr. Manhattan well, he proceeded to blow people up, now with bombs or anything, but with his powers. He's a walking source of energy."
She hit a couple pictures up of him and the rest of the Watchmen "No luck finding him now, he's on Mars or something."

"Damn."
He shook his head. Some places seemed to be far worse than others.
"Yeah, that definitely never happened where I'm from. The closest thing to it was the World Trade Center, and that was in 2001."
He glanced at her curiously.
"Did that happen here? Or where you're from?"

"It happened a month ago Tony and yes, the attacks on the world trade center happened where I came from, I was in high school when it happened however."
She closed out the windows and closed the laptop.

"A month? It's 2012--"
He sighed.
"Right, nevermind. You know when I made that suit, I wasn't trying to turn everything in my life into science fiction." He said.
"Not that I'm complaining. I like being blindsided by surprises."
As it sometimes happened with Tony, it was hard to tell if he was being serious or joking.
