Around Town, Saturday Evening

[so_hawkward]

There wasn't a whole lot that Clint had answers for at the moment. He didn't know why he wasn't plastic anymore, he didn't know how Fandom had gone back home, he didn't know if his friends were okay... but he did know that his brilliant action figure self had left Lexi home alone with the freaking dogs to protect her when he went off to the junkyard, and he couldn't rush home fast enough to get back to her. Thankfully, she'd been asleep when he got back to the house, but he was still apologizing to her as he headed back through town with Lexi wrapped against him in a baby sling.

"Your mom and I are the worst, I'm so sorry. I'm really hoping you're too young to remember anything right now, or I'm going to find a way to make all these bad people that keep messing with us pay for your therapy."

[Mostly for the wife, but open if anyone else is still awake and wants some SP!]

"Oh, yeah, we need to clean house, for safety and catharsis," Kitty agreed. "...And make her first birthday a clothes-only event."

[so_hawkward]

"She's a growing child, she can always use more clothes and diapers and blankets. Our friends will understand." One bonus to everyone getting his with this crap!

[throughaphase]

"Our daughter's going to need therapy."

Which... they should have known.

[so_hawkward]

"I'm really hoping her first memory won't be until she's like, three or four, so we have a few free years where none of this will actually affect her." Of course, he didn't know what to do once she started being able to remember things, but that was a problem for later.

[throughaphase]

"At least by then she'll also have-" Sigh. "-our super safe universes for some normalcy."

[so_hawkward]

"You know, maybe we should focus on the good things, like how we're all okay again," Clint said. "I think you should let me take you home and give you a thorough examination."

[throughaphase]

"Would it be weird if I cry first?"

She totally was going to need to cry by then.

[so_hawkward]

Oh Kitty.

"We'll all lay down and you can cuddle Lexi and cry as much as you need. I've got you."

[throughaphase]

"Okay," she nodded. "Good plan."
