I open the door and walk through. I smell the food pepper was cooking and I hear footsteps coming my way.
I look down to see Tony's kid standing there
I kneel down to her level smiling
"Well hello there. What's your name?" I ask her
"My name is Morgan. What's yours?" She asks me
"My name's Elizabeth" I tell her
"You're the one daddy tells me about" she says
"Is that so?" I ask laughing
"Can you show me your powers?" She asks
"Of course" I smile at her
I quickly read her mind to find out horse are her favorite animal.
I use my powers to create a horse running and jumping around
She starts giggling like crazy and runs off
"Daddy!! Daddy!! She showed me my favorite animal!!" She yells running to Tony as I stand back up
Tony walks to where I was
"Lunch?" He asks me
"Can't turn down food" I smile walking to the table
I told Tony about everything that happened, with thanos, what strange told me before the fight.After dinner I was helping pepper clean up as Tony was putting Morgan to bed. Tony came back down and look at me
"Hey Elizabeth, Morgan is insisting you have to come tell her goodnight" he tells me
"I would gladly" I say laughingI walk into her room seeing her still wide awake
"The star of the show is here" I laugh
"Yayyy!" She smiles
I kneel down at her bed
"Goodn-" I start to say
"No!" She yells
"You have to sing or tell me a story" she says
"Oh do I now? I'm sorry I didn't know the rules" I laugh
"How about I sing you a song my brother used to sing" I smile
"Ok!" She says getting comfortable in her bed"Lavender's blue, dilly dilly,
Lavender's green
When you are King, dilly dilly,
I shall be Queen
Who told you so, dilly dilly,
Who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, dilly dilly,
That told me so
Call up your friends, dilly, dilly
Set them to work
Some to the plough, dilly dilly,
Some to the fork
Some to the hay, dilly dilly,
Some to thresh corn
Whilst you and I, dilly dilly,
Keep ourselves warm
Lavender's blue, dilly dilly,
Lavender's green
When you are King, dilly dilly,
I shall be Queen
Who told you so, dilly dilly,
Who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, dilly dilly,
That told me so" I finish and I realize she was fast asleep
I smile and kiss her head before walking down"I always loved hearing that song in the compound" tony says as I walk down the stairs
"Snooping again?" I ask
"No no just, thin walls" he says
I start to help Tony finish up cleaning
He accidentally spray some water and starts to wipe down the wet cabinets and pictures
He grabs a picture of Peter Tony and I smiling. Peter putting bunny ears on both Tony and I
"Tony" I say and he looks at me
"We owe it to him to try" I say
"I don't think I can live without him. Without Wanda" I say trying not to cry
He just looks at me
"Come on" he says and leans me to the table"I've got a mild inspiration" he says to Friday with a time travel creation.
"I'd like to see if it checks out. So I'd like to run one last sim, before we pack it in for the night" he says
"This time in the shape of a mobius strip" he says
"Inverted, please" I add
"Inverted?" He asks
"I have a good feeling about it" I roll my eyes
"Processing" Friday says
A model pops up and we both stare at it
"Right, give me the eigenvalue of that particle factoring in spectral decomp" he says
"That'll take a second" I say
"Just a moment" Friday says
"And don't worry if it doesn't pan out. I'm just kinda-" he stops as we see it turn green
"Model rendered" Friday says
Then the words 'model successful' pops up on the screen and both Tony and I sit down shocked.
Tony covers his mouth in shock
"Shit!" I breathe out still not comprehending what just happened. We just solved time travel.
"Shit" we hear someone say behind us
We turn to see Morgan sitting on the stairs
Tony puts his finger to his mouth
"What are you doing up, little miss?" He asks
"Shit" she says again
"Nope, we don't say that" tony tells her. Oops.
"Only mommy says that word. She coined it. It belongs to her." he tells her
"Why are you guys up?" Morgan asks. Perfect timing I smirk
"Cause we got some important shit going on here! What do you think?" I ask her and she gives me the same look Tony always does
Tony looks at me
"You're a bad influence" he tells me
"Learned it from you" I say back
He rolls his eyes then turns back to Morgan
"No we just got something on our minds" he tells her
"Was it juice pops?" She asks
"Sure was" he says
"That's extortion. That's a word" he says getting up
"What kind do you want?" He asks her
"Great minds think alike. Juice pops exactly what was on my mind" he says looking at me then at the modelI go sit down a little bit away from pepper
"Not that it's a competition." He starts catching our attention
"But she loves me 3000" he says
"Does she now?" Pepper asks
"You were somewhere in the low 600 to 900 range" he tells her
She just laughs and looks down back at her book.
Tony looks at me, I nod my head. He looks at the model
"Whatcha reading?" He asks
"Just a book on composting" she answers
"What's new with composting?" He asks still looking at the model
"Interesting science" she starts to say
"We figure it out" he says cutting her off
She looks up at him
"By the way" he adds
"And, you know. Just so we're talking about the same thing" she says
"Time travel" he answers her
"What?" She says looking at me then back at Tony
"Wow" she mumbles
"That's uhh- that's amazing and terrifying" she says
"That's right" he says sitting down
"We got really lucky" she tells him
"Yeah. I know" he sighs
"But a lot of people didn't" she says glancing at me
"Nope. And I can't help everybody" he says and I look away for a second
"Sorta seems like you can" pepper tells him
"Not if I stop" he tells her
"I can put a pin in it right now and stop." He says
"Tony" she looks at him
"Trying to get you to stop has been one of the few failures of my entire life" she tells him as he laughs and grabs her hand
"Something tells me I should put it in a lock box and drop it to the bottom of a lake and go to bed" he says
"But would you be able to rest?" She asks him
"I'll let y'all be alone" I say getting up
"Elizabeth there's a spear room upstairs" pepper tells me
"Thank you" I say looking at Tony one last time
