Love is Death

Part 36: Find The Stones

I was helping build the bigger time travel pad so that we can all go back in time to get the stones

Right now i am in my dad's lab fixing up a part of my suit

You know you don't need to do that. i heard my dad's voice

Well i need to fix this part just in case we have to fight. i said

You know i have plenty of suits for you. He said

I know, but i don't want to ruin them. i said

It's fine, kid. He said

Not a kid anymore dad. i said

I know, but you're my kid. he said

I know dad. i said

Look, when we do this i want you to be careful. he said

Okay, i will. i said

Good. He said and hugged me

I love you, Jr. He said

I love you too, Dad. i said

Skip

I am in the same room as everyone else, I am wearing a T shirt and sweatpants

Okay, so the how works. Now, we gotta figure out the when and the where. Steve said

Almost everyone in this room has had an encounter... with at least one of the six infinity Stones. Steve said

Or substitute the word encounter... for damn near killed by one of the six infinity stones. Dad said

Well, I haven't... but I don't even know what the hell you're all talking about. Scott said he was Ant man

Regardless, we only have enough Pym Particles for one round trip each. And these stones have been in a lot of different places throughout history. Smart hulk said

Our history. So, not a lot of convenient spots to just drop in, yeah? Dad said

Which means we have to pick out targets. Clint said

Correct. Dad said

So, let's start with the Aether. Thor, what do you know? Steve asked and we all looked at Thor who was in the corner behind me and Natasha

Is he asleep? Nat asked

No, no I'm pretty sure he's dead. Rhodes said

He probably is. I said

Skip

Thor is now up and talking about the reality stone

Uh, where to start? Um... The Aether, firstly is not a stone. Someone called it a stone before. Thor said and pointed at Steve

Um, it's more of an angry sludge sort of a thing... so someone's gonna need to amend that and stop saying that. Thor said and I slammed my head on the table

Here's an interesting story, though, about the Aether. My grandfather, many years ago... had to hide the stone from the dark elves. Thor said

I was now leaning against Natasha who was running her hand in my hair

Scary beings. So, Jane, actually. Thor said and pulled a picture of Jane up on the board

Oh, there she is. Yeah, so Jane was an old flame of mine. You know, she stuck her hand inside a rock this one time... and then the Aether stuck itself inside her... and she became very, very sick. And so I had to take her to asgard, which is where I'm from... and we had to try and fix her. We were dating at the time, you see... and I got to introduce her to my mother... who's dead and, um. Thor said

Oh, you know, Jane and I aren't even dating anymore, so...yes, these things happen though. Nothing lasts forever. The only thing that. Thor said

Why don't you come sit down? Dad said

I'm not done yet. The only thing that is permanent in life is impermanence. Thor said and laughed

Awesome. Eggs? Breakfast? Dad asked

No. I'd like a bloody Mary. Thor said

Skip

Quill said he stole the Power Stone from Morag. Rocket said as we ate Chinese for dinner at the table and rocket was standing on the table

Is that a person? Smart hulk asked

No, Morag's a planet. Quill was a person. Rocket said

Like a planet? Like in outer space? Scott asked

Oh, look. It's like a little puppy, all happy and everything. Do you want to go to space? You want to go to space, puppy? I'll take you to space. Rocket said and I laughed a little

Skip

Thanos found the soul stone on vormir. Nebula said

What is vormir? Nat asked while she wrote everything down I was sitting next to her

A dominion of death... at the very center of celestial existence. It's where Thanos murdered my sister. Nebula said

Not how I wanted my morning to go. I said

Not it. Scott said

I'm gonna punch you. I said and looked at Natasha and kissed her hand

Skip

That time stone guy. Natasha said as me, her and Dad were laying down on the table and Smart hulk was laying on the floor

Doctor Strange. Smart hulk said

Yeah, what kind of a doctor was he? Natasha asked

Ear-nose-throat meets rabbit-from-hat. Dad said and I laughed

Nice place in the village, though. Smart hulk said

Yeah, on Sullivan street? Dad said

Mm... Bleecker street. Smart hulk said

Wait, he lived in New York? Nat asked

No, he lived in Toronto. Dad said

Uh, yeah, on bleecker and Sullivan. Smart hulk said

Have you been listening to anything? Me and Dad asked

Guys. If you pick the right year, there are three stones in New York. Nat said

Shut the front door. Smart Hulk said
