"Guess I'm an uncle, huh."

            Okay, so he was possibly the worst person to put inside a room with a child.  Steven was a tall, looming figure in the doorway, somebody with calculating eyes. He could pass for Scar from the Lion King, really. But Steve had needed a babysitter on the nose, so here he was. Leaning against the doorframe, he kept his eyes on her. The sounds of her writing sounded twice as loud with his enhanced hearing. 
            
            "S'ppose so," he muttered. He folded his arms over his chest. His focus dropped to the floor then, as he thought of what to do in this - to him - awkward situation.

" i suppose so, " the child replied in a somewhat idle tone, half distracted as she scribbled equations into her notepad. she stole a glance up at the elder man, eyes narrowing slightly in thought. " it's . . steven, isn't it? uncle steven. "

Someone had wrapped a blanket around the child. She hadn't seen who, too lost in the chaos of blaring sirens and screaming to pay much attention. But, despite the thick covering, her tiny frame was shaking from head to toe, tears staining her flushed cheeks.
          
          Her father was gone. Mary was still having a hard time trying to comprehend what had happened. She wanted to wait for someone to lift him out but she'd been ushered into the communication centre instead, bombarded with a bunch of different enforcement and help talking to her all at once. Prodding and checking over her for injuries, asking questions she couldn't answer, and settling her in the corner until they could figure something out for her.
          
          She kept playing the moment over and over in her head, becoming more and more worked up. People around her tried to comfort her, but she didn't want to speak to them. She wanted Steve; the star clad, shield throwing man who had come to take her from danger. She had felt safe with him, even if it was for the briefest or moments, and she wanted to feel safe again.

morgan  peeked  through  the  younger  girl’s  door  and  looked  around .  “you  should  really  clean  up  your  room  ...”  she  spoke ,  raising  an  eyebrow .

@americasgenius    the  brunette  rested  and  leaned  on  the  door  frame ,   looking  around  and  hummed  and  gave  a  short  nod .
            
            “just  work,”  she  repeated  and  her  gaze  landed  on  the  kid  and  smiled .  “do  you  need  help ?”  morgan  offered .
