Tony is silent as Kiara seems to think this over. Her hand leaves Bruce’s cheek to rest upon her belly. “This species takes roughly thirteen months, as you might understand them, to fully gestitate a child’s body. There will be several of our offspring within that body who will need to find suitable urn to mature in. I will die of mortal causes as will the primary child we have together. The rest will wait until a suitable host comes across their urns and a suitable mate wakes them. It may take many lifetimes. I member my mother. And I remember the mortal sibling whom I started life within. I miss both dearly, though neither truly knew me. And I never truly knew them. It is... it is difficult to be congnizant of long periods of nothingness, Doctor Banner, but while I did not have a childhood, I have a life now to live for as long as this vessel carries me. You are looking to see if what I propose will harm others?”

She’s insightful. Tony really doesn’t like her at all. He kind of wishes he hadn’t had that Hulk juice. The hot tub was restorative but it really didn’t do more than take the edge off.

“All life harms others. But it is life. And my people have a right to it. Please. Help me. And I will help you.”
