Stark had watched Glitz consume what he was charitably describing as an unhealthy amount of bacon-covered pizza not long ago. But the boy was still hungry, as was Ziya, and he'd promised them cupcakes

Ben had only been to Fandom a couple of times (Dad never missed a random relative's graduation) and he'd memorized the layout of the important places: ice cream shop, bakery, and Granddad's office.
Since he'd already been to the one and didn't want to be near Granddad, he was heading for the bakery.
Too bad he'd jumped through a portal without credits...
"Hi!" he said to the two people at the counter. He was from Coruscant. Masks and blue faces didn't phase him in the slightest.
Ziya nodded. "Of course. He thinks everyone should have cupcakes." Stark made a terrible babysitter. Or at least a fattening one. "So do I. Right Papa?"
Stark nodded his assurance. "Whichever one you want."
"I'm Glitz!" Glitz announced. "Glitz Glowyface Carson! And that's my Dad and he's named Stark. And that's Ziya. She's blue." Just in case Ben hadn't noticed. Glitz was very helpful like that.
"You're welcome," Stark said. "Finding your parents might be a good idea. Parents usually like to be found." Usually.
"That's a cool name!" Glitz said. "Almost as good as mine." Someday this child would outgrow this stage and his parents would be in trouble. So much trouble.
Ziya was just going to stand to one side and be grateful she had a nice pretty name, thank you very much.

[OOC: He's here for a cupcake, Stark!]

"One cupcake," Stark corrected. "For now."
"You can't have all of them," Ziya pointed out. "I need one."

"There are enough for everyone," Stark said. "What kind would you like?"
"Chocolate!" Glitz answered, pointing at one. "And vanilla and peanut butter and lemon and razzzzzzberry and..."
"That one, please," Ziya said, pointing as well and trying not to roll her eyes.

"That's really his name," Stark said. Alternate-future Bridge had so much to answer for. So, so much.
