"Let's just hope this dog stays the same size."

Agnes said with a chuckle, bringing everyone's attention to the fact that she was still there.

"You can say that again, mama."

Inez said, bring the Maximoff's attention to the fact that all their children had aged themselves up again, Alice taking Inez with her.

"Alice. Not you too."

Wanda exclaimed, as she noticed her daughter was now 16, Alice just rolled her eyes at her mother's comment.

"Woof, woof."

Agnes then said as she continued to hold this dog, partially scared that one of the kids was going to age it up somehow.

💚🖤

Inez sat with Alice as they watched billy teach the dog tricks.

"I'm not much of a dog person. Neither's my mother. We prefer our rabbit."

Inez told the group, causing Alice and Wanda to sort of chuckle, it was quite on theme for the O'Connell's.

"Mum, watch this."

Billy said trying to get the attention of his mother, he wanted to show her all the tricks he had taught the dog so far.

"Sit, sparky, sit. Good dog."

Billy said after he saw his mother's eyes were on him and the dog, giving the dog a treat after he did what he told him to.

"Speak."

The boy says, in response the dog barked, Alice sort of wincing, it hurt her ears, Inez saw this and squeezed the girl's hand.

"Nice, sparky. Now spin."

Billy said as he gave the dog another treat for barking, no one but Inez noticing that the bark had hurt Alice's ears. The dog spun as the boy moved the treat in a circle, just as Billy had taught him to.

"Good boy!"

Billy exclaimed before giving the dog the treat he had in his hand, while Wanda and Tommy started to clap.

"Oh! Bravo, Billy!"

Wanda exclaimed, Alice could swear she could hear the sound of helicopter blades whirling, or at least something similar, looking around trying to find the source of the noise inside.

"What is it, Alice?"

Inez whispered to her girlfriend, Alice was kind of sitting on Inez's lap, they both wanted the chair, but Inez beat Alice to it so Alice just sat on her lap, not that Inez minded.

"I can hear something."

Alice whispered back before Wanda spoke up again, Alice wasn't still freaked out about finding whatever the source of that noise was.

"You weren't so bad either, sparky."

Wanda sort of joked, Inez rubbing circles on Alice's knee in an attempt to calm the girl down it wasn't really working.

"That was radical."

Tommy told his brother who had picked up the dog, holding it in his arms as he moved closer to the couch.
