Leah was about ready to pull her hair out.
They weren't supposed to be this much trouble. They were never this much trouble.
Pippa liked nap time, damn it (and she knew she wasn't supposed to actually say "damn it" around them but she figured inside her own brain she could think whatever she wanted to, and this called for it - no one was acting like themself today, of all days.)
Pippa liked naptime, Maggie never cried, Jamie and Ben knew better than to throw things in the house... and it dawned on her that she hadn't actually seen Erik, Brynn, or Annie in the last half an hour or so.
"JARVIS, where are the other three?" she asked in what she hoped was a calm, reasonable tone.
"Mister and Miss Foster and Miss Banner are currently in the elevator between floors, Miss Barton. I believe they are headed down to Mr. Stark's lab."
"NO! I mean, JARVIS, please stop the elevator and reroute it back up here. They're not allowed down there
