Cordelia gets shot lying down...

Viktor and Emma were invited to a party at Avengers tower.

Viktor asked Emma if she wanted to go and she hesitated, saying that Lilith was really still too young, even if Cordelia was babysitting…

Viktor scratched his head and asked with a serious tone "If we're with her all the time will she become too dependent?" Emma looked at him speechlessly, replying "She's only 15 months old… I don't think we should be worried about this yet…"

Viktor rubbed his hands and said honestly "I don't know anything about raising kids, little bear…" Emma rubbed her nose and whispered "Me neither, big bear, but I don't think it's okay to leave her behind with Cordelia… What if she becomes addicted to TV and pizza…"

Viktor frowned seriously, replying "That is an issue… A big problem… I don't want a little fatty…" Emma nodded seriously as they whispered together, glancing at Cordelia on the couch every now and then…

Cordelia looked at them with a strange look, asking "What?" Viktor frowned and said "No more pizza." Cordelia was dazed instantly, what happened? What did I do?

She was just sitting here watching TV when a bombshell hit her out of nowhere!

How unfair was this?!

Emma patted his chest and rubbed lightly, saying "You go. I'll watch Lilith at home and wait for you." Viktor looked at her and held her hand, asking "You're okay staying here?" he frowned and said hesitantly "What if… she forgets about me?"

Emma giggled and kissed him, saying "You're so cute. She's not an amnesiac. She won't forget about you, big bear. You're her 'favorite daddy'." Viktor joked badly with a snort, "Does she have more than one? Of course, I'm the favorite! There's only one option!"

Emma rolled her eyes and said "Yes, yes, of course… She's not gonna forget you because you weren't here for one night. We'll have a girls night, don't worry." she patted his chest and smiled lovingly "We'll be okay, don't worry. Even if the Earth explodes, we'll be fine. This place is indestructible, remember? Even if the Earth does explode… We'll just be a floating house in the universe…"

Viktor's eyes lit up and he laughed "Travelling Clinic! Hahahaha!" Emma curled her lips and giggled, sorting out Viktor's collar as she said "Alright, love. Go and support your friend. Oh, tell Nat I said hi and that she should come by more."

Viktor kissed her and scratched the bridge of her nose, replying "I will."

A while later

Viktor walked into the party venue.

He was dazzled, there were so many people here!

He held Kikoku on his shoulder and walked around. He was wearing an oversized baggy Black t-shirt, black tampered 3 quarter black jeans with ripped ends, and 1 strap black adidas slides…

He was very casual.

A bit out of place here…

Also, so much black you would think he was evil. Not really, black went with everything so he wore it mostly.

Also, his wife liked white very much so he was contrasting, it wasn't because he was an edge-lord…

Well… maybe just a little…

But, ahem! Excuse me, do you deny black is the best shade?

Wearing all blue or red or white just isn't the same…

Also! Black was the cheapest 'color' to buy. The more fancy patterns and colors were much more expensive. Viktor had to save every penny to build the school in the future. So that was why he was wearing the most comfortable clothes at the lowest price.

They weren't even name brands, but they were very comfortable.

Viktor didn't quite like some name brand clothes, they felt rough and cheap on his skin strangely enough. And the excessive use of silk wasn't fun for anyone…

So Mr. Cheap in Black was born…

Viktor looked around, trying to find someone he was familiar with, wondering where Tony was…

Then he was slapped on the shoulder and turned around to see Steve! Viktor smiled "Steve! How's it going?" Steve smiled, replying "Pretty good, yourself?" Viktor smiled and said "You know, tired…"

Steve chuckled and they sat down, chatting about Viktor's family and what the Avengers were doing.

Sam came over and said "Steve, we got the table." before looking at Viktor and saying "My man! How you doin'?!" Viktor slapped his hand and laughed "Isn't this the famous 'Dragon'? What an honor!"

Sam chuckled and said "I gotta say, that's one hell of an upgrade you gave me!" he sighed and added "I don't even need to waste bullets half the time! Plus Stark upgraded my wing suit…"

Viktor listened and nodded, asking if there were any difficulties, Sam replied with a joke "Yeah, finding a challenge! Hahaha~"

Viktor touched his nose and laughed, Steve smiled helplessly and said "You said the table was open?" Sam remembered and nodded, bringing Steve away.

Steve told Viktor he'd see him later before going under Viktor's wave.

Suddenly, a woman sat next to Viktor, saying "To meet the famous Angel in Hell, I'm truly lucky!" Viktor turned his head and blinked, smiling modestly "How can I compare to Doctor Cho?" he changed to Korean and continued "Your research on Cell Biology was very insightful!"

The woman was very beautiful, she had phoenix eyes and a slender body. She was Helen Cho, a Korean Geneticist. Her eyes lit up and she replied in Korean "You've read my research thesis?"

Viktor nodded and replied with a smile "Your regeneration cradle is quite amazing, manipulating Cells to divide at will to regenerate tissue is very interesting! I can only imagine the change it would bring to hospitals everywhere."

Helen smiled excitedly, "Thank you! It's still in its primitive phase, I was hoping to increase the cellular reconstruction rate exponentially and even create limbs…" she started talking eagerly and Viktor listened quietly.

After all the knowledge he got from the system, he studied research and all sorts of theses (Plural for Thesis). One of them happened to be Helen's Regeneration Cradle. If he didn't come up with Extremis Shots, it would've been an amazing advancement that could change the world!

Though, it still could. It's just that what Helen was studying, Viktor had already completed it!

While Helen was talking, Viktor inserted his own thoughts and opinions on the matter. He even gave Helen a few ideas that made her eyes light up.

They were speaking in Korean, so most people didn't understand.

Bruce did though…

But who cared about him?

Hmm… Maybe Natasha…
