Johnny pocketed the neat rock as well as some nuts and a flower or two he had found. Louie had long since abandoned him to his exploration to instead walk at Steph's side, at her much more sedate pace. Johnny left the spider alone and started to pick up logs in search of salamanders,  time was short to explore much more as they were nearing the end of the woods. "It's more just a really complicated family kind of thing. You know Alien Drama." Johnny shrugged his shoulders as he finally quit goofing off and wiped his hands on his pants before coming back to Steph's side. Taking her hand into his so he cpuld walk beside his girlfriendat her own pace for a while. "I'm not a toddler! And Steph likes my rocks." Johnny laughed<br/><br/>"So just hyper active then Johnny?" Clint asked his mood still light, glad everyone had enjoyed the hike so much. His neice and nephew were burnt out on it and didn't care for them much anymore. He went quiet again about the Loki topic but smiled weakly at Steph. "Thanks I try to keep the trail clear just in case. Don't worry Bucky I'll protect you from the big bad spiders." He promised his unofficial official boyfriend with a grin of his own.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>"Good, I'm so proud of you George. You've really come out of your shell and have become a real part of this family. You work so hard at your studies and doing chores at least let me feed you proper food." Laura said as she put her hand on the 'boys' cheek gently before pulling him down into a hug full of motherly love and warmth. She released him with a smile before she turned to give Loki a smile as warm. "I'm glad you can get that here of all places. I'll have George walk you back to the house while I do the chickens, then George you can come back and help with the goats and other freeloaders." Laura ordered, her tone once more that stern mother tone that brooked no arguments. There was a lot more work to be done but Loki should begin reading those books she lent him. Laura was already walking away, deep in thought as to how to teach him about human pregnancies and babies. As well as food she could make for him to help combat the nausea.
