Well. Now what? (Open)
So, she'd been stuck in this alternate universe for a couple of days now, and Stevie was going out of her mind.   Not that she watched a lot of TV, but only about a third of the shows she did watch even existed in this universe, and only about half of those even had the same actors.  And there were only so many hours she could spend in the gym or sleeping.  And while they were still setting up paperwork for her, she couldn't even really go out yet.

If she'd been more of a Stark, she might well have been able to while away the hours in a lab somewhere, shutting off friends, family, and the outside world while she furthered the cause of SCIENCE (issues with her mother?  Who?  Her?)

Today, however, she'd wandered into the garage.  Boy, those were some nice cars.  Including an extremely sweet, old, but obviously well cared for Impala.  Stevie was practically drooling at the sight of it.  Her fingers were practically twitching to look under the hood.  She'd have to ask who owned it.

She headed back inside and into the kitchen.  Maybe a snack would cheer her up.

Jarvis was in the kitchen preparing a large bowl of salad for lunch. There was a big pan of homemade macaroni and cheese baking in the oven. "Hello, Miss Barton. Is there something I can get for you?"

Ah, Jarvis. Good, dependable, Jarvis. Apparently a damn near universal constant, and a refreshing little bit of familiarity.

"Oh, hey, Jarvis," Stevie said. "Was just thinking about a snack or something. It almost lunchtime?"

"Yes, Miss Barton, I am preparing lunch. Is there something I can get you?" he asked as he sliced a cucumber.

"I'll just wait until lunch then. Though... is there chili? I thought I saw chili in the fridge."

Because chili went on everything. True fact.

"Of course, Miss Barton," Jarvis said. "Would there be anything else you require?"

"Um, yeah, actually. Quick question for ya. Who's the Impala in the garage belong to?"

"The Impala belongs to Mister Barton, the younger," Jarvis replied. "He is currently elsewhere."

Well, crap. That pretty much turned her odds of getting under the hood or behind the wheel from "possible" to "zero." Unless she hot wired it.

Which would be... ... wrong.

Hopefully MC was keeping people away from her car back home.

"Ah. Well, thanks," she said.

"You're welcome, Miss Barton. Your chili will be ready in a few moments." Jarvis set aside the cucumber and knife and went to fetch the chili from the refrigerator.
