What If? All in the Family.
It had been a freak accident. Some kind of short-circuit of energy signatures, Dr. Vernard had said when he examined them. The point was that Jon had been dragged here with them from his own facet of reality, and his energy signature was so disrupted that even that dimensional teleporter Mrs. Stark had called in couldn't send him back there. They'd really tried everything, but had finally given up.

And then, there was the other thing.

"So... do you want to tell him?" Vernique asked Svalin as she sat holding her hand on the bed. In Svalin's other hand was the test, clearly positive.

"Yeah, anything to do with you and money will be just a formality. Finance is women's work. And I am the girliest thing on two legs."

"Aye, she ist. V'ry. She ist always trying to get me to be more girly as she doth call it."

"The Avengers and Defenders wilt always have funding and members wilt receive stipends. Mine father and Heracules hath made sure it is so."

"Hmmm, I should start looking into joining a team then. And... admittedly, not sure I entirely blame her. You would look very good in a nice dress."

"Aye they didst," Svalin said. "I art not fond of dresses, but I wilt wear them when appropriate. The Defenders wouldst gladly have thee, but there ist the two Avengers teams. Though they art quite a distance away."

"The primary Avengers team are the ones with the most U.N. sanction for international stuff. Your around-the-world-in-80-seconds schtick could do well for that, but I'm just guessing."

"Both good points. Maybe I should spend some time interviewing and looking at the possibilities closer before trying to decide something like that."

"Good plan." A pause. A dramatic side. "I'd better stop sleeping with your brother, huh?"

"Aye, after the wedding wouldst be wise," Svalin said. "It wouldst be most improper for mine wife to be sleeping with mine brother."

"I keep very good company. But yeah, going to have to swear off Hal for good, and ..." She looked at Jon. "Probably put the little black book itself on a shelf until we figure out what's going on, at least."

"Yeah, we're going to... need to talk. I don't want to totally screw things up, but this whole arrangement is already kind of confusing. Powers or no, I still... guess I lived a pretty conservative life."

"Aye," Svalin said. "We wilt have to talk about expectations. I art quite used to this since I grew up in the same situation with two mothers, one is a woman and the other ist a warrior."

Vernique nodded. "Negotiating and flexibility. We'll work something out eventually. Now let me call my Daddy so I can explain that I knocked a girl up, but I'm doing the right thing." She grinned.

This is definitely going to take a lot of getting used to.
"Yeah, you do that. If he's anything like you, I imagine he'll figure it out faster than I did... and I was there."

Svalin chuckled.

"I canst explain things more if you like whilst Vernique calls her parents if thou wouldst like," she said to Jon.

And Vernique will smile and wink and step aside to get them on the phone.

Jon sighs. "Ok, I think I get the basic ideas, but any kind of idea what's coming next as I can get would probably be useful."

Jon nods and moves to follow Svalin. This has to make more sense eventually, right?
