"Hello! And welcome to Try This at Home," Simmons chirped at the camera from her work bench.

"With adult supervision," Fitz added from somewhere to the left of her.

"Fitz!" She groaned. "I told you if you want to talk you need to be in view of the camera."

"And I told you I don't want to be on your show," he shot back and she sighed impatiently as she looked to her left.

"Then be quiet," she countered.

"Yeah well you really should add the whole adult supervision line if you don't want to get angry emails from parents." He defended.

"This isn't only for children you know," she reminded him, attention no longer on the camera as they squabbled.

"No one else is going to watch it," he warned her.

"Excuse me," she said to the camera, smiling apologetically.

"Who are you talking to? Aren't you deleting this?" He asked confused as she reached to turn it off.

Simmons appeared again on the video.

"Let's start with the basics, safety goggles," she said brightly, lifting them up. "You only get two eyes, unless a criminal organization implants one into you" she kidded. "Oh... Maybe that wasn't... Umm... Anyway."

"You probably shouldn't talk about that on a children's show," Fitz criticized from the left of her and she shot him a look.

"It's for all ages Fitz," she corrected irritably.

"Yeah I know, I know, I got the emails," he replied grumpily. "Why did you give them my email address?"

"Because you wanted me to put your name in the credits," she told him, smiling patiently.

"As a consultant not a contact," he grumbled.

"Well you can't expect me not to put a contact for my sources," she objected. "What if the viewers want to know more?"

"They have Google... Or library cards," he pointed out and she rolled her eyes at him.

"Let's start with the basics, safety goggles," Simmons tried again. "Now, I have gotten a few emails saying I'd look more like a scientist in glasses..." She trailed off, shaking her head. "And though I have no desire to perpetuate stereotypes, I have asked my partner Fitz to model the safety glasses you put over glasses just in case. Because remember, glasses are not safety glasses." She chuckled.

She turned the camera to Fitz and he waved shyly.

"I don't know about this Simmons," he worried. "I look weird on video."

"Don't be silly, you look fine," she assured him. "He looks lovely doesn't he?" She asked the camera.

"Don't ask them," he exclaimed, once again off screen. "I'm going to get more emails about how I should be on your show."

"Yes keep sending them, he's brilliant," she whispered.

"What?" He asked from the side.

"Nothing," she lied. "Anyway safety goggles, very important. You can pick them up at the hardware store."

"Or ask your parents to," he put in and she nodded, smiling before turning off the camera.

Thanks for the reviews, likes and follows on my other stories! You guys are awesome.

Don't actually worry about having safety goggles. All these experiments will be eye friendly.

Agents of Shield belongs to it's wonderful creators and ABC and Marvel.

The next one should have an actual try this at home thing, not just safety glasses haha.

I plan to update this sporadically with fun little squabbles and experiments. It is so I have something light and fun to write when I am writing less lighthearted tales haha. Or if I have an idea.

There probably won't be a Fringe reference in all of these for those who look because they are super short.

I posted it today for stereotypes. (The glasses thing).
