Shout Outs-
Agent-G- Emma does have that affect on women doesn't she? Well, Jean anyway! You can bet that I'm gonna show Logan's reaction to the fact that Ben and Selene are dating! How can I not? It's gonna be priceless!
Quote of the day- 'No beer or TV makes Homer something, something...'- Homer Simpson (The Simpsons)
The Baxter Building-
Selene is still standing in the middle of the kitchen with the Richards' baby daughter, Val, in her arms.
'So, what do you want to do now?' Selene asks.
All Val does in response is blow a snot bubble.
'Now that's disgusting!' Selene winces, grabbing a tissue and wiping Val's' nose.
'Blll...' Val gurgles.
'I don't know what your mother was thinking when she left you in my care.' Selene says. 'I haven't looked after a baby in almost fifteen hundred years!'
'Waffglhbuh...' Val gurgles again.
Selene just shakes her head in shame.
'Here I am, a formerly immortal sorceress and I'm talking to a baby!'
Selene creases her nose, as she smells something.
'And now I have to change a diaper! Great!'
Xavier Institute-
Ben Grimm, aka the Ever-Loving Blue-Eyed Thing, is presently sat at a fold-up card table playing poker. Sitting next to him is the X-Man known as Wolverine. Next to him is Nick Fury, head of SHIELD. Wearing the dealer's cap, unaware of how stupid he looks, is Captain America. The last player at the table is the jade giantess, She-Hulk!
'C'mon Cap!' She-Hulk groans. 'Are we gonna play or are ya gonna take forever dealing those cards?'
'Patience Jen.' Cap replies. 'Dealing poker is a precise procedure.'
'Take ye time cap.' Fury sighs. 'I've got a meeting on Friday!'
'My Aunt petunia can deal faster than that!' Ben adds.
Cap finally deals the cards and the players look at their cards.
Logan taps his cigar on the ashtray, knocking off the excess ash.
'So Ben, I hear yer got a new girl.'
'Whut of it?' Ben asks, casting a cautious glance over his cards.
'Ain't yer gonna tell us who it is?' Logan asks with a cocky grin.
'You damn well know who it is.' Ben growls.
'No I don't.' Logan replies.
'Yer mean that Frosty didn't tell yer?' Ben asks.
'Nope.' Logan replies.
'C'mon Ben!' She-Hulk pipes up. 'Tell us, who's ya new flame?'
'It ain't none of yer business!' Ben sighs.
'I must say that I'm curious, Ben.' Cap says. 'Why don't you tell us? It's not like you've got anything to lose. We're all friends here!'
'Just spill it Grimm.' Fury adds.
'It's Selene.' Ben sighs.
'Sorry Ben, we can't here you.' She-Hulk grins.
'I'm going out with Selene, ya happy?'
The sound from the card table is deafening. From the sound of Logan spitting out his cigar in surprise and She-Hulk trying to restrain her howls of laughter to Nick Fury spitting out his beer and Cap's sharp intake of breath.
'What were yer thinkin' of Ben?' Logan asks. 'She's a flamin' sorceress! She'll have yer soul fer breakfast!'
'I've got to agree with Logan.' Cap adds. 'I don't know Selene as well as the X-Men but I've heard that she's a toughie!'
'Well you guys don't know the real Selene.' Ben replies. 'She's a nice person an' I like her! Now, are we gonna play or are yer gonna keep on bitching about my love life?'
A mumble of assent travels around the table.
'Anyway.' Ben continues. 'What was this I heard about Frosty and Summers?'
Back at the Baxter Building-
Selene has just finished changing Val's diaper. The former sorceress is pretty much covered with baby powder.
'Who knew that changing a baby could be this difficult?' Selene asks, attempting to dust herself off.
Val yawns in reply.
'Nice.' Selene sighs. 'I'm glad to see that you're having fun! Time to get you to bed I suppose.'
Selene carries Val over to her bedroom and places her in her crib. Val looks up at Selene as if she's expecting something.
'What?' Selene gasps. 'Are you waiting for something?'
'Guzzahwazzah!' Val replies.
'A lullaby?'
'Hrblgblmm...'
Selene starts to sing a lullaby in Latin.
Soon enough, Val is fast asleep.
Selene holds a hand up to her mouth and stifles a yawn.
'Now I'm tired.' She yawns. 'Time for bed.'
As soon as Selene steps one foot out of the bedroom, Val wakes up and starts to cry.
'Oh spit!'
Somewhere in Manhattan-
A gang of random thugs are dangling from a signpost having been stuck up there by strands of webbing. The Human Torch and Spider-Man step back and admire their work.
'Nice job if I do say so myself, Torchie!' Spidey says. 'Whattaya say buddy, wanna take another sweep?'
'I think that I'm gonna call it a night today Spidey.' Johnny replies. 'I'd better get back, Ben's new girlfriend's looking after Val.'
'Who is this new chick anyway?' Spidey asks.
'You wouldn't believe me if I told ya buddy.'
'I've heard stranger things.'
'Okay.' Johnny replies. 'Brace yourself, it's Selene!'
'Hellfire Club Selene?'
'Yup!'
Spidey bursts out laughing at the thought.
'BWAHAHAHAHAA! Pull the other one man! That was too {snort} funny!'
'I'm serious.' Johnny deadpans. 'Ben's dating the Black Queen.'
Spidey wipes a tear from his eye.
'Hoo-boy! Stranger things have happened I suppose.' He sighs.
'Meaning?'
'Just look who one of your exes was, the Sub-Mariner's cousin!'
'Okay, you can stop now.' Johnny sighs.
'And then there was that chick that you married, she turned out to be a Skrull in disguise!'
'Please stop!'
'Ooh! I've got another one! Thanos's granddaughter! What was her name?'
'Nebula.' Johnny sighs.
'Jeez man, your taste in women sucks!'
The Baxter Building-
Selene is crouched besides Val's crib. Val is still crying. Selene is trying to entertain her with a dancing teddy bear.
'C'mon Val.' Selene begs. 'Please sleep. Look at the funny dancing teddy!'
Val still cries.
Selene makes the bear dance some more.
'Look at me Val! I'm the wacky dancing Teddy! Dance, dance, dance, dance... dan...'
Selene finally succumbs to sleep and slumps onto the floor.
Val stops crying enough to peer at the unconscious former sorceress. She gurlgles happily.
Later-
Sue and Reed walk in from their dinner date.
'I'm just going to check up on Val, okay?' Sue asks.
'I'll brew some coffee.' Reed replies.
Sue walks over to Val's room and smiles at the sight that greets her.
'Reed, come and see this!'
Reed's neck stretches around the corner as he peers into the room. Val is tucked into bed fast asleep while Selene is sprawled on the floor snoring away like an adorable sorceress-shaped baby.
'How adorable!' He grins.
'It looks like someone's all tuckered out!' Sue says.
'Who are you referring to?' Reed asks. 'Val or Selene?'
