Remember that USM-Sam meets 616-Sam idea I had??? Yeah, imagine:

"So, what? You guys stay here, like some kind of Backup Avengers?" Sam-From-Another-Dimension-Who-Would-Henceforth-Be-Called-Nova asked, looking around the tricarrier.

"Basically." Ava agreed, though that was stretching it a bit.

"I could be in the real Avengers." Their Sam scoffed.

Nova threw his hands up, "Aw, man, you too? Sucks. I got extended an invite once, too, but Mom told me I couldn't join. Something about child endangerment and other garbage."

His statement was met with stunned silence.

Ava knew a bit about Sam's past. How he used to tour the Galaxy with a bunch of aliens, brought there by a friend of his father's. Who according to Peter looked astonishingly like a raccoon.

He had never mentioned a mother, and it didn't take a genius to realize what happened there.

"You have a family?" Sam asked, "Like... Actual parents?"

Ava felt like dying. This was not a conversation she wanted to be listening to.

"Well, parent. But my dad's somewhere out there. And I have a sister too." Nova confirmed, "Do you not...?"
