Cam is out flying. There's a decent cloud of atmosphere around the gold plane, now, millenia of demons making air around themselves for comfort and not sealing it up because why would you bother. There's a small forest, here - the effect is kind of ruined by the lamps it has to grow under, but it's still pretty.
He feels an open summons and lets it grab him -

"Indeed," says Jarvis. "I will be ready to provide both computers with rudimentary browsers as soon as they connect."

"Cool." Cam tells his computer to check for connectivity and grabs the only thing he can grab.

"Great," says Tony. "And now there's no way in hell I'm getting back to sleep, so I'm gonna play with the shiny new technology some more."
He goes back to his holograms.

Cam makes himself some coffee, too, and sips it while he starts poking around the browser Jarvis has dropped into his external partition.
The internal partition hasn't started becoming alarmed or deleting itself in a panic, so either Jarvis hasn't gotten past the first layer or isn't trying.
Cam starts by looking up bees.

Adana looks up landfills and the current state of the environment. She can just convert trash into more useful things - she'd have to be subtle about it, but there's quite a lot of good she could do if she turned the world's garbage into cloud-fluff and then into other things from there.
"Hey, Tony?" she asks, absently. "Does Stark Industries have lots of - trash or waste that you can quietly send my way so I can make it into useful things? If I'm here for a while I might see about starting or usurping a trash company."

"Huh. I mean, we have some, but - oh, hey, how are you with radioactive stuff? Because there's not a lot of volume there, even worldwide, but disposal is kind of a huge problem, if you could just turn it into fluff you'd be doing the world a huge favour. I guess it'd be hard to get it aboveboard, but - I dunno, it just came to me. Not that Stark Industries personally produces that much radioactive waste. Barely any. I guess I just totally failed to answer your actual question."

She giggles. "It's okay. I work just fine with radioactive stuff, I completely forgot that would be a problem in a non-daeva world. If I can get close to it I can do just fine, it's not like I'll die of radiation."
She goes to look up spots where radioactive waste is dumped.

"In other news, looks like you do in fact need your bees fixed but I'm in before it's a crisis. Where can I go release some inoculation-distributing fake bugs?"

"Would you like a map?" inquires Jarvis. "Presently we are in Sunnydale, California. I'm afraid I'm not sure of the criteria for a good spot to release fake bugs."
from_scratch
"California is great, actually, lots of agriculture, yeah? I can just toss them out the window and they'll find their own way."

"However, no windows being immediately in evidence in this basement, what I am actually trying to say is 'may I either wander your house until I find one or be directed to a particular window that would suit'."

"Perhaps if I opened the garage door," says Jarvis, illuminating the curved tunnel that leads upward from the car-bearing end of the room.
from_scratch
"Sure. Anybody going to see me with suspicious extremities if you do that?"
from_scratch
"All right. I will fill your yard with confused inoculated bees if you would be so kind as to open the door. I won't make 'em with stings."

Just out of sight around the curve of the tunnel, the garage door rolls audibly upward.

Cam goes out and makes bees.
Bees fly confusedly away in all directions.

"It's pretty confusing to start existing all of a sudden, I'm told. But they'll fly around and land on things and leave the cure on those things and then less fake bees will also land on the things. It should get everywhere, but just to be safe I might want to do another batch from another point on the continent in, oh, six months."
