[Anakin and Emily have entered the chat]
Emily: finally! Took you long enough to remodel it
Anakin: hey, you were the one who said the chatroom looked lame
Emily: true, but does it really take two weeks to reprogram the chatroom?
Anakin: (gives her a look) I was on a mission for five of those days
Emily: still, I thought you were a computer genius
Anakin: just shut up, Emily
[Anakin has invited Tony, Bruce, and Steve to the chat]
Tony: I was beginning to wonder if you had abandoned us
Steve: (rolls eyes) like Anakin would do that
Anakin: thank you, Steve
Bruce: can I invite a few others on? I have something to tell you guys
Emily: sure, go ahead
[Bruce has invited Natasha, Jayla, and Clint to the chat]
Jayla: whoa, nice job redesigning the chatroom, Anakin
Anakin: (grins) why, thank you
Natasha: was it really necessary to make the profile pics bigger?
Anakin: hey, they were so small that I couldn't tell the difference between Emily's and Jayla's faces half the time
Emily: (glares at Anakin) was that an insult?
Bruce: well, if you guys are done talking... I have finally made my decision about coming back
Clint: and what is the verdict?
Bruce: (takes a deep breath) I will stay at the Avengers Base
Jayla: that's awesome!!
Bruce: I don't need anyone to come pick me up because I still have the quinjet I took back in May
Steve: how long do you think you'll stay?
Bruce: I don't know, depends on how long I can keep the other guy controlled
Natasha: I'm sure it'll be fine, as long as you stay away from Tony
Tony: hey!!
Jayla: he won't even have to worry about Tony because he is always at Avengers Tower
Tony: oh, speaking of the tower, I'm thinking about changing the name
Steve: why would you do that?
Tony: because first of all, I'm not really part of the team anymore, and second, you guys have your base
Natasha: (to Steve) he has a point
Bruce: well, that is your decision to make, Tony
Anakin: crap, I'm gonna be late for a Council meeting. Talk to you guys later
[Anakin has left the chat]
Emily: hey Jayla, do you have any idea when the baby will come?
Jayla: let's see, eight months from now would be...May
Tony: eight?
Jayla: yea, it's already been a month. Funny... it doesn't feel like it has been that long
Bruce: looks like the baby will be there before you know it
Steve: (shakes head) please, don't rush it. I have to learn how to be a father before then
Emily: I'm sure everything will work out fine. It did for Anakin
Steve: I sure hope you mean in the alternate universe
Emily: (snorts) trust me, we don't even talk about what really happened to Anakin anymore because this alternate timeline makes it feel like nothing changed... when in reality a lot really did...
Jayla: (groans) ugh, this deep thinking is giving me a headache
Steve: (alarmed) are you feeling okay?
Jayla: I'm fine, Steve. I think I'm just a little tired
Steve: how about you go lay down on the couch, and I'll see if there are any good movies on Netflix we can watch
Jayla: okay
[Jayla has left the chat]
Tony: (surprised) wait a minute! Since when did you get Netflix?!
Natasha: that was my wedding gift for them
Clint: you probably weren't paying attention at the time
Bruce: well, if you guys don't mind, I'll be leaving now to go get the quinjet ready
Natasha: when will you be here?
Bruce: eh, probably late evening
Natasha: okay, I make sure there are dinner leftovers for you. We're planning on shawarma tonight
Bruce: awesome, thanks
[Bruce has left the chat]
Tony: they had a wedding and you got them Netflix. I had a birthday and you guys forgot about it
Emily: when is your birthday?
Tony: May 29th
Clint: we were probably busy at the time
Natasha: hey, Halloween is next month. Maybe we can do something then
Tony: omigosh, you just gave me a genius idea!!
Natasha: and what's that?
Tony: we have a Halloween party here at the tower and everyone dresses up as someone else
Emily: so, like I dress up as Jayla and she dresses like me?
Tony: exactly!
Clint: that is actually a really good idea. Is it okay if we do trick-or-treating for the kids?
Tony: yea, we could make it work. I'm gonna go tell Pepper our ideas
[Tony has left the chat]
Natasha: why does it seem like every time we get on, someone wants to plan something big?
Emily: I don't see how it's a bad thing
Natasha: it's not, but you know I'm not a big socializer
Clint: I gotta go now. Laura needs me
[Clint has left the chat]
Natasha: I better get going too. Gotta buy the shawarma for dinner
Emily: okay, talk to you later
[Natasha has left the chat]
Emily: well, since there is no one to talk to--
[Unknown User has entered the chat]
Emily: (to herself) this had better not be who I think it is. (To the Unknown User) who are you and how did you find this chat?
Unknown User: ...you wouldn't happen to know someone named Steve, would you?
Emily: look, I don't know who you are, but you are not going anywhere near my best friend and her husband
[Emily has left the chat]
Unknown User: (sighs) you disappear for two years and you miss a lot
[Unknown User has left the chat]
-------
Now as far as I know, I don't think Bruce is coming back to the MCU anytime soon, but I wanted to kinda bring him back because he hasn't been around for awhile. Also, I recently realized I had left someone out of the chat for a whole book.... And now I feel bad for not adding the person sooner.
Don't forget to vote/comment.
I have no idea when I'll update next. It depends on schoolwork.
