Iron Man Comics Question

[ithildin]

For those of you who know the comics, and assuming future movies may utilize characters from those comics, I have a question. Tony's household staff. He has a mansion, so obviously he must have a housekeeper/cook/some combo. I think Nin told me that in the comics, Jarvis is an actual person? If so, he may be part of that combo. So, the question: are there such characters and what are their names? If not, Tony's getting a housekeeper from me [g] She has a name and a history, and now just need to know if she gets to keep her job!

On the writing front, I got about 700 words done on the 'chocolate chip waffles' story last night. Then my mum called, and I lost my momentum.

Later the Same Day: I'm endlessly amused by the fact that we're actually discussing Tony's possible household staffing arrangements. I love being excited over a fandom again!

I'm not worried about it, just figured if they used Happy and Pepper, etc., in the movie from the comic books, there might be other names they'd use in other movies. Just idle curiosity for the most part. And it saves me going back and changing names after the fact.

I just read fic where Pepper and Happy got married in fact. Nin had told me about Rhodey and his armor, and a few other bits and peices. I know future movies are going to incorporate other superheroes, but I haven't decided if I like that idea or not yet [g]

Additional domestic staff?

I've been thinking about what you said: that he'd need a staff. I'm not so sure that he would, outside of the people he already has (Pepper and Happy). Jarvis runs the house, so no housekeeper. There are robots to do the housework. As for a cook: this is a man who eats cold pizza and drinks icky-looking protein shakes. There's no sign of a cook on the premises, and no sign that he would want a cook.

They show robots in the workshop, but nothing upstairs. I'm thinking there would have to be some humans to take care of such a huge place. Not as many in a non tech type house, but some. And there are stairs [has visions of Daleks floating around Tony's mansion]

These little things give me something to mentally entertain myself with when it's slow at work [g]
