Your doing fine, kid
Meanwhile
Tony heard the sobs coming from Ben's room, which was strange as Ben was with Bruce, Allison was in the gym with Luther, Diego and Five were with Peter, and Vanya was with Wanda which left- Klaus.
Tony didn't know what it was, but he saw a lot of himself reflected in the boy. Maybe it was the way he didn't have very much regard for his personal wellbeing.
So, when he heard Klaus sobbing in Ben's room, he immediately sprang into action to help.
Klaus was sitting in the floor, eyes squeezed shut. He was hunched up, scrawny from folding in on itself.
Tony sat down next to him, and spoke softly to him, until Klaus had stopped sobbing and muttering to himself, and had opened his eyes.
"There you go," Tony smiled at the boy, "can I touch you?"
Klaus nodded, and Tony slung an arm around his shoulder.
He muttered softly to him, calming him down.
Once he had calmed down, Tony patted his shoulder, "That's great. Wanna talk about it?"
Klaus was about to shake his head, but the words poured out without his permission, "Its all so weird, we're in a different world and everything. Ben's alive and I'm sober. I mean, a month ago I was constantly high, in my home, had a dead brother, another one missing, and Vanya had no powers, it's all just so fast."
"I know. I know. It's all gotta be weird," Tony said comfortingly.
"And now I'm staying sober, and the ghosts wont go away and- and-" he was working himself up again.
"Hey, kid. Look at me," Klaus turned his eyes on Tony, "Your doing fine. Better than fine, your doing great. Your exactly where you should be, and I'm proud."
"Thank you."
"Yeah." There was a pause, "Hey, d'ya wanna go watch Brooklyn 99?"
"What's that?"
"Oh, you'd love it, it's great."
Klaus sat in the living room, watching the TV while Tony made dinner with Clint in ther background.
By the time they called the others down, Klaus was smiling again.
