Sitting near the window vision watched the scenery outside not paying attention to the book that laid in his, his mind occupied with thoughts not even noticing Rhodey stepped out the elevator with baby in tow had him extremely curious.

“hay Vision could you take mason for a bit, tony needs me to go get the kid and tony doesn't want Mason out in the public,” Rhodey asked snapping vision out of his thoughts.

“Uh i dont know if that a good idea James” vision said hesitantly backed away slowly he wasn't afraid of the child but he was afraid he would drop her he had no idea how to handle a child.

“Nonsense Man,” Rhodey said gently placing mason in Vision's arms “just support her head if she gets upset rock her gently she already had her bottle so she should still be good there is diapers in her diaper bag also remember to rub her feet with cream her soles are sensitive” Rhodey babbled on has he instructed vision on how to hold mason it was Entertaining to watch the colonel go from soldier to mush.

Looking down at her Vision could see both resembles of steve and tony in the facial features of steve and the brown hair and eyes of tony.

Normally vision was accustomed to the whispers in his head to a point he doesn't even realize they are there although he hears them he deals with them but for once he is quite frightened by the utter silence in his mind, holding the child in his arms for the first time the mind stone was silent no whispers, no sound nothing but complete silence if he hadn't felt the stone in his head he would have wondered if he even had it, she was staring at him with her big brown eyes and toothless gummy smile as if he, himself was her most favorite stuffed teddy bear.

Reaching out with her little hands she touched his face she let out a contagious giggle a rush of colors, scenes, people, memories flash through his mind all to fast to grasp but it made him feel warm and safe, she let out a slew of giggles and clapped her tiny hands she was happy for some reason he didnt know but it was adorable.
