He finds himself lowering down onto a chair in the waiting alcove, long legs stretching out and body slumping back into the worst sort of posture - not terribly unlike a teenage boy, if that boy were two hundred pounds of muscle and had a metal arm. "Fortunately, the king feels a little bad for tryin' to take my head off for something I didn't do. Think I could maybe sway him and call in the favor already, but it'd take some work. You'd have to comply to their terms."
About how he gets in, what he brings with him, what he has access to, how long he can stay. They'll monitor tech and they'll make for damn sure Tony doesn't get a good opportunity to look at anything too long without someone auditing its importance.
