Chapter 14.

Everybody's been there,

Everybody's been stared down by the enemy,

Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing,

Bow down to the mighty,

Don't run, just stop holding your tongue,

Maybe there's a way out of this cage where you live,

Maybe one of these days, you can let the light in,

Show me, how big your brave is,

Say what you wanna say, and let the words fall out,

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave.

- Brave, Savannah Outen.

Nine days after Lily had agreed to help Tony and JARVIS to form a translator of sorts, they were finally finished. Bruce had advised that they bring in someone who was a little more adept on the subject of languages and had even suggested a linguistics student he'd met during his time at Penn State who was now a well-credited linguistics professor at the school. Apparently, he had wanted to ask her on a date but 'nobody really socialized with the nerdy science kids, let alone wanted to date them', and apparently it was 'too much like high school', whatever that meant.


Tony just brushed him off with a scoff and a wave of his hand, telling him that JARVIS had everything they'd need and if Lily was being honest then she felt much more content knowing it would be one of them running the sessions, which in turn made her leave every session like she had also learned so much about the American (or apparently English?) language. Bruce had decided to distract himself with his work over Lily's DNA and test samples along with DR Cho when she was available.
