~Ooh, let the light in
At your back door yelling 'cause I wanna come in
Ooh, turn your light on
Look at us, you and I back at it again~
Sensing all this pain and loss happening around her Maggie breathed deeply as she waited for her turn to dust awa...

"It's been twenty three days since Thanos came to Earth", Rhodey announced, everyone having now moved into the main room of the compound.
Tony was now sat in a wheelchair with an IV in his arm, looking very malnourished from his twenty three days spent up in space.
Twenty three days now, Maggie counted, another day since they lost, since she lost him.
Projected onto the table was holograms showing stats as they counted everyone they'd lost since the snap, the stats counting higher and higher each day, it was true, Thanos had wiped out half of humanity.
Maggie blanched when she saw the face of Bucky staring back at her, her heart aching as she read the name 'James Barnes' below his picture, his blue eyes seeming to stare through her soul.
She had to turn her eyes away from his, feeling guilty that she didn't do more during the fight, maybe if she'd fought harder or had gone out earlier he'd still be here.
"World governments are in pieces", Nat followed up, telling them the mayhem that was occurring all over the world. "The parts that are still working are trying to take a census and it looks like he did-, He did exactly what he said he was gonna do. Thanos wiped out fifty per scent of all living creatures."
"Where is he now? Where?", Tony asked them, the group having been the last to see him after he left Tony in space.
"We don't know", Steve answered. "He just opened a portal and walked through."
"What's wrong with him", Tony then jutted his finger over at Thor who sat in another room twiddling his thumbs as he spaced out.
"Oh, he's pissed", Rocket, the raccoon, spoke up from where he sat on the floor leaning against a drawer. "He thinks he failed. Which, of course, he did but y'know there's a lot of that going around, ain't there?"
"Honestly, until this exact second I thought you were a Build-A-Bear", Tony stated shocked.
"Maybe I am", Rocket shrugged at the term, having been called much worse.
"We've been hunting Thanos for three weeks now", Steve told Tony their struggles, looking to Tony for some type of answer or theory. "Deep space scans and satellites, and we got nothing. Tony, you fought him."
"Who told you that?", Tony interrupted defensively. "I didn't fight him. No! He wiped my face with a planet while the Bleecker Street magician gave away the stone. That's what happened. There was no fight, 'cause he's not beatable."
"Did he give you and clues, any coordinates, anything?", Steve fished, still holding any hope that many others had lost.
"Uh...pffff", Tony used his hand to gesture from his head out as he made a brain fart noise to indicate that he had nothing.
