I would like it to be known, now and for the record, that I had nothing to do with any of this nonsense. That stated, do please tell me I'm not the only one left.
I've no idea what that is, but the answer is almost certainly no.
[He still can't quite tell if Tony's been affected or not. So far this is pretty standard conversational fare where they're concerned, which is faintly depressing.]
[Though along the same line of thought... is he unaffected? It's not as though even he'd noticed if he lost a few centuries, give or take. He frowns faintly.]
[She was thinking the same thing. Of course it would be more noticeable if she'd lost a few years, but people may have only lost hours. Minutes. Days?]
There are some other grownups... [Bruce basically counts, right? He's roughly 16 and a genius at science so he's totally a grownup.] Not everyone's crazy young.
Glad this wasn't a prank because honestly it's pretty poorly thought out.
[Which is a particularly odd comment as he's not wearing his female skin at the moment, but no matter.]
That's a clever enough statement to be starting with, certainly. You do yourself too little credit.
Kenzi is in my care. I am not a stranger to rearing children, but there are too many even for me. We ought to assign guardians to each, just to be certain.

Realist. I like to be prepared.

[And may the situation implied in that quip never actually come to pass. Children are bad enough, but babies?]

I can help. [He really can't.]

[What? Even kids like to feel useful. Especially kids who remember being fully-grown angels.]

Thank you, Loki. [A lightbulb shatters over his head and he flinches.] I don't like this.

[And perhaps he can help a bit with the lightbulb... thing.]

You are well?

I hear you were watching Kenzi earlier. [She scares him.]

[And that sounds... really threatening, oops. He should probably elaborate.]
I have a son. Children aren't entirely foreign to me. Caring for all of them will be... stressful.
[So better him than you, for obvious reasons.]
As for Kenzi, I am still watching her, but she's fond of her independence. I am content to let her wander, for a time.

Who is this, btw?

[Why yes, he can make lewd comments while under pressure. It's just one of his many and varied talents.]
I am Loki, son of Laufey. You're a friend of Kenzi's, unless I am very much mistaken. I'm afraid I didn't catch your name.

I'm not exactly the smartest person in this dorm, but I'm thinking the grown ups better come up with a plan. Like. Now.
