[There is a blue-eyed child looking at you. She can't be more than three. She is, however, wearing a very grown-up expression of dissatisfaction. And some kind of superhero outfit with a big "6" on the chest.
Ordinarily, Val would be cagier about immediately going public in a strange place, but, well, she has A Problem. When she speaks, it's with fully adult syntax and no hint of a lisp or any other childish speech impediment.]
Hi. I'm Valeria Richards. Assuming no alternate timeline stuff--not a safe assumption, I know, but sometimes you gotta live dangerously--it looks like there are a few people out there who're friends of my parents. You've got a couple of hours to come get me before they [she turns the phone to show a pair of what are presumably social workers, looking simultaneously put-upon and patient] try to stick me in foster care and things get sketchy.
[Anyone who knows Val will know that's more for the prospective foster parents' protection than hers. No one wants her turning some unfortunate family's appliances into her robot escape army.]
...'Bye.

The point is, she's here, and she's like, a tiny little kid. The fact that she's also ridicusmart is beside the point. ]
What are you gonna do, stand there and wait for social services? You want to get out of there, kid. Come to the MAC or something, at least there's other ImPorts there.

Hm. Oddly advanced diction for human child of such young age. Wonder why. Taken from universe where humans ordinarily achieve earlier mental maturity? No, no, biologically unsupportable. Shapeshifter assuming childlike form? Doesn't make sense, post instantly reveals ruse. Content of transmission doesn't suggest adult forced into younger body, presence of social workers indicates post content real and not an illusion... Perhaps-
[Mordin takes a deep breath, then points at the screen and at Valeria.]
Human child with unusually advanced intellect due to mutation?

[video] I can't believe I missed this I am so late I hope that's okay.
[But something about Laura can't resist a little kid in trouble. So she turns on her phone, sitting off to the side in one of her classes at the dojo, kids practicing in the background.]
Did someone come and get you?
[video] never too late!
[video] Yay. And Laura is sadly pre-babysitting adventures.
[video] oh good that means she doesn't know about how val almost got them all killed \o/
[video] She wouldn't hold it against her anyway, she's too adorable.
[video] that's got to be part of why val's still alive
[video] Power: Adorable Invincibility
[video] even marvel won't kill a three year old
[video] I don't know. DC did it.
