People were willing to answer all the questions I asked:
-"Steve, what are these?"
"Those are the dumplings you like from the Chinese place we order from. I thought you'd like to have some."
"Oh, well thank you!"
-"Thor, where are you and Loki from?"
"We, young one, hail from the glorious realm of Asgard!"
"Is it nice there?"
"You found it most favorable when you visited."
"I've been there?!"
"A few times, yes."
"Wow…"
-"Hey Morgan, when's my birthday?"
"December 24th, Christmas Eve,"
"Really?"
"Yeah, you go crazy at Christmas time because of it. It's your favorite holiday."
"How old am I then?"
"Few months past eighteen, if I remember right,"
"Gotcha,"
-"Clint can you teach me how to use a bow?"
"Why?"
"Cause it looks cool when you do it,"
"I taught you once; I guess I can teach you again."
"Sweet! Can we go now?"
"Why not, follow me kid"
-"I know I hit my head and all… but how'd I hit my head in the first place?"
Dead silence. No one would give me an answer, at least one that counts as a straight answer. I still had one person to ask though.
"Jarvis, where is Tony at?"
"Sir is in his lab, Miss. Go to the elevator, up two levels, down the hall, take a left and it is the second door on the right."
"You rock, Jarvis."
"As do you, Miss."
I followed my directions and ended up at the right lab, at least that's what I figured by the blaring music being emitted from the lab.
"Can you turn down the music, Jarvis?"
"With pleasure," the voice said back, turning down the music as I walked in.
"Jarvis, the music, why is it not deafening me?"
"Because I was asked to turn it down, sir."
"Was it Bruce again? If it was, ignore him from now on."
"It was me, actually… I can come back if you're busy though."
Tony finally looked over at me, "Pft, don't be ridiculous, you are always welcome in here, even when I'm busy. I'm glad you showed though, I need some help with this.
"Do I normally help you with… whatever you're doing?"
"All the time, you happen to be my favorite lab assistant."
"Oh, okay. Um, what do I do?"
"Get some goggles from that drawer there and come hold this beaker for me."
We spent 25 minutes doing some chemical reaction that turned Chemical A from liquid, red, and extremely hot to a foamy solid stuff, green, and slightly cold when mixed with Chemical B and back again when Chemical C was introduced.
"That was so cool!"
"That's science, squirt. It's always cool, especially when I do it."
"Sure, Tony, whatever you say."
"Was that sarcasm I detected, Mar Bear?"
"No!"
"Calm down, Mary. Sarcasm is okay around these here parts."
"Really?"
"Really. Now, you want to do another experiment?
"Well… I actually came down here to ask you something… but it can wait I guess."
"Great! Let's find one that has something exploding in it! Those are my favorite and they're the most fun!"
