"I never heard of em'"

"Why does this virus thing only work on children?"

"Hormones."

"How do you know that?"

"How do you know what makes electricity?"

"Science!"

"Well, science says grownups don't get powers. So there."

"Well in my world science doesn't say a lot about who does or doesn't get powers, but grownups do get powers!"

"Your world sounds silly."

"I haven't even told you like five things about it!"

"But it was a silly thing!"

"I bet your world has silly things too and you don't see me thinking all of it's silly just because of them!"

"And I bet in your world mermaids live on land."

"There aren't any mermaids in my world! There are mermaids here?"

"Yes. One's my boyfriend! How do you have no mermaids? Did you kill them all?"

"There were never any mermaids! How can you have a boyfriend, you're eight."

"What's that have to do with anything?"

"Boyfriends are grownup things."

"I keep trying to tell her that," said the glowing woman hovering above the children.

She looks up and her first thought is "Alexandria," followed by "Legend," and then she remembers she's not in her world anymore. "Hi, are you their mom? It's really weird that no one here wears masks."

"MUMMY!" 

The glowing children lept into the air, rapidly orbiting the glowing woman. Evan meanwhile had to content himself with launching into a long, rambling narrative about his day. 

"That answer your question?"

"Yeah," she grins, rubbing her nose with the back of her hand. "I'm Sadde."

"I'm Zaneta. I see you have met my children." Zaneta looked at the still slightly hysterical boy, watching from the distance. "And Erwin."

"Yeah. I'm from another Earth."

Zaneta almost raised an eyebrow. Almost. 

"Interesting. Would you like to discuss this?"
