Summary: Billy’s got a theory.
Author's Notes: I own nothing.



“I have a theory,” Billy said, causing Karolina to roll her eyes and groan softly. He stuck his tongue out at her and went on. “I think Skrulls, like magpies, are attracted to shiny objects. Or, in our case, people.”

“Okay, I’ll bite. What makes you think that?” Karolina asked, a faintly amused smile on her face.

“When I first met Teddy, I was trying to make a costume out of thin air and was totally covered in little blue... well, sparklies. The effort failed miserably,” he admitted, “but Teddy told me later than he couldn’t take his eyes off me the entire time. Now, you are a solar powered rainbow alien. Very shiny and sparkly. And Xavin? Cannot seem to keep her eyes off you.”

“But does it hold true for other Skrulls?” Karolina asked.

“Mrs. Altman loved glittery jewelry,” Billy offered.

“Okay, it’s an interesting theory. Next time I have to fight Skrulls, I’ll put it to the test.”

“Think of all the time we could save if we could stop Skrull invasions with pretty, shiny things.”
