"Now, we know what it sounds like—"
Steve huffed. "Tony, after everything you've seen, is anything really impossible—"
"Quantum fluctuation messes with the Planck Scale, which then triggers the Deutsch Proposition." Tony interrupts. "Can we agree on that?" he says as he hands James a cup of tea.
Scott, Steve, and Nat all look puzzled. Science is barely any of their fields.
James sighed. "In Layman's terms, it means you're not coming home."
"I did," Scott says
Tony shook his head. "No, you accidentally survived. It's a billion to one cosmic fluke. And now you wanna pull off a... What do you call it?"
"A time heist?" Scott says trying his best to hide his pride.

Scott seemed to be getting annoyed. "Not if we strictly follow the rules of time travel. That means no talking to our past selves, no betting on sporting events—"
