Thanks in advance if you decide to send something

After eating Tony acted sleepy again.

Steve also wanted to talk to Howard about something so he suggested to set Tony to bed first.

------

Tony was left to his room to rest.

Since it was not yet time his parents usually sleep, Tony decided to test some functions first. He knew that he could create items but it would cost large amounts of energy. Tony assigned the nanites to form a power line to the AC socket.

He was not going to be moving for the next couple of hours so he decided to let the power line follow the floor patterns. That way it was not that obvious.

He set the line to connect directly to his head since that was were most of the nanites were concentrated. He settled to a comfortable position after he was connected.

(AN: Please DO NOT leave any electronics charging unattended with your baby. Your phones are not made by Tony Stark so chances are that accidents can happen with it.)

Tony also decided to limit the electric current used to charge. He did not want to get caught because of a ridiculous electricity bill.

The mansion they were at has no space for the massive Arc Reactor and they were not staying near military housing that does not monitor power draw from each household.

Tony checked for the estimated charging time and was baffled. With the current power draw, the nanites would be fully charged in a week.

In the nanite's defence, it was designed to last for more than 2 years while maintaining the stealth function. (Time travel happened before he was born and the device had 50% charge when he got it)

Tony was rechecking the blueprints he could produce. It looks like he should first build the CNC. It was a small one the size of a crt TV.

Though it was basic, he was currently lacking in power and it was either this or the 3D printer first. He could replace the control circuits with the nanites right now but the 3D would be less useful at this stage.

It was slower and he did not need the custom parts right now. 3D printers would be more useful when he began building objects that need special building needs. Like a seamless ball with hollow interior.

The CNC would be more appropriate since most of what he will be building were still gears and solid objects.

Tony figured that his dad's lab would probably have the some raw materials He could get scraps from there until he built his own supply line.

After figuring things out, he felt a little tingling sensation for the nanites. It looks like it was time to test the last function.

Tony finally opened the Baby Spider icon.

Suddenly, the nanites began regrouping around his body.

The suit that formed around him looked like a hoodie. (AN: Search Baby spiderman suit and check the jacket version.)

He had gloves and shoes on but the suit looked more like a mod of his current baby outfit. He was wearing the full body pajamas used when sleeping. The suit used that as a based while enclosing everything but his face.

Tony was glad that, at least, his future self did not set up the suit to be skin tight spandex.

If he did get a spandex, Tony would probably be snatching the the SpaceTimeGPS from Steve and travel to his future self to kill him.

(AN: Did anyone other than Peter parker really want to wear the spandex?)

He checked it out in the mirror and tried to pull down the hood. The face mask was a red mask without any markings. The suit did have the lines but no remarkable spider logo, or any logo, was present.

Tony: I guess this will have to do since the suit can't fly. At least the feet and hands should be able to stick to the wall?

The nanites were flexible so of course it could follow the groves on the walls for traction.

Tony crawled to the walls and ceiling. He was unable to stand when he was at the wall however. His body could not support itself sideway. At least he could set the nanites to build a support frame but that would reduce his overall protection.

He did get a warning that there was no web fluid available when he tried to web swing. This was easier than getting the raw materials for the CNC since even Peter was able to produce web fluid from school.

Tony was going out through the window when a prompt to leave a clone showed up.

He almost forgot to leave a clone. Good thing or else a missing baby would be causing a real alarm.

He tried to go to his father's lab since that was were most non household stuff would ever be.

Howard's lab was hidden inside a hidden entrance through their garage. (AN: Not sure so basing on rich people on US TV. Most mansions would either have a basement for cars or another separate building for it and either way works for me). That would make things a little less conspicuous than having a separate building people rarely knew anything about.

--

As he was sneaking into the garage, crawling along the ceilings as well as walls so that he pass through road blocks.

He knew that there was a lab here from his fathers ramblings but did not know where it was. He decided to set the nanites to different walls and filter out the vibrations for analysis. The nanites got off from him other than the gloves and pants region that stuck to the ceiling.

He was surprised that he immediately got a hit on one of the walls and immediately redirected the rest of the nanites there.

He got to hear the voice after spreading the nanites thin through the wall each acting as a vibration detector.

When the vibrations were filtered, he heard Howard and Steve talking. It sounded serious so he decided to eavesdrop a bit.

----------

Steve and Howard are in the middle of the talk.

Steve: Stop asking me that, You know I can only answer a few things.

Howard: Can you at least give me a hint. At least I can work with that so that I don't waste my time not knowing which questions I can ask.

Steve: Fine. You are the second smartest person I know alive. If you get what these means, I will tell it to you.

Steve showed Howard his watch with the coordinates for the Tesseract and Pym particle heist.

Howard looked at it a bit and recognized a bit. It was the time when that man Potts showed up. No one knew who that guy really was and there was nothing stolen in the base so the case was closed after a week.

Howard: Time and that part seems to be the coordinates near Camp Lehigh. But the only thing that time period had was 2 suspic....

Steve: "That's enough.

If you piece them together someday you''ll figure it out anyways so I might as well say it.

I'm from the future."

Meanwhile

Tony thinking: And here I though Steve finally stopped being a tattle-tail after the civil war. Looks like old habits die hard Tsk Tsk
