[The feed shows two small boys - around eight years old - running amok in one of the workshops at City Solutions. However, these aren't your normal children; the havoc they're causing is rather more scientific than what an average Earth boy might be able to do.

Koschei is tinkering with something that looks rather robotic when he glances up at Theta.]

Have you got your bit working yet, Theta? It's hard to do things properly with these primitive tools.

[Yes, someone was just as much of a snob in his younger years as he is several centuries later. At least he's not evil, though?]


[ooc: replies may come from either Koschei or Theta (timelordy). Or both!]

[ Pulling a very childish face. ]

Who's lab is this?

[threeolives]

It's Tony Stark's lab. He owns this company, along with me.

[timelordy]

What does your company do?

[threeolives]

We do research, and we invent things. A little like what you boys are doing, except we're trained adults.

[timelordy]

We're trained too!

[threeolives]

You're missing the most important word. Trained adults.

[timelordy]

We're practically adults.

[threeolives]

I don't know about time lords, but in most places, eight is hardly adult.

[timelordy]

[ Huff. ] We learn differently on Gallifrey.

[threeolives]

It's not about the learning, it's about the experience. At eight, you just don't have that kind of experience.

[timelordy]

[ But he totally has experience. In blowing things up. ]

We have to have a practical education too.

[threeolives]

You get this practical education at your Academy, right? And your Academy probably has teachers, right? Teachers who are adults.

[timelordy]

Teachers who are boring.

[threeolives]

Well the adult doesn't have to be boring, he or she just has to be there.
