Marvel's: The Avengers (Accepting)

Nierka hesitated, Valkyries only gave their names to the dead they were to reap, "My name is... Kira." She said hesitantly as she removed her helmet. Orus squawked in protest as she did so, Nierka! No! We need to return to Asgard! He cawed and nipped her ear harder. "Knock it off." She said to him, only she could understand him.

Ward looked at Orus curiously he wondered if it was speaking to her telepathically. She had answered it so he supposed so, though from its body language it appeared to be speaking to her a different way as well. He looked back towards Loki then turned and did the same to the winged woman.

Loki had paused mid-step, halting his gate and casually turning toward the other man. Oh, this was just a bit too tempting to pass up. As Ward spoke of his crimes, a long list of things in which the mortal apparently thought were either impressive or intimidating, Loki's smirk only grew into an outright grin. It wasn't exactly a pleasant smile. More predatory, and feral than it was friendly. Ward really believed that he could 'take him out' as the man had so eloquently put it. If his knowledge of Midgardian terminology was correct, then Loki translated the phase to mean that Ward presumed that he could kill him if he so wished. How amusing.

"You clearly have no idea who I am." Loki said with a smug expression. "And you would do best not to tempt me into showing you." The god warned with a faint laugh, and though it was evident that he thought of this conversation as nothing but humorous, his tone had darkened slightly along with the threat. Even with his scepter currently in the form of a cane, he was still fully capable of walloping him with it. And with the weapon held within his grasp, his magic was also strengthened and more powerful than it would have been without it, like the added seidr was a drug flowing through his veins.

When Nierka approached, Loki sighed and flashed a glare in her direction, even before she removed her helmet. Since he was no mortal, he could see her, no matter what magic she attempted to hide under. He gave a smirk, though, when she gave Ward a false name.

Orus batted his wings at her face and Nierka plucked him off her shoulder, "Behave for Odin's sake!" She scolded in a harsh whisper as she gently held his wings to his sides. Fine! Whatever! Just don't hold me like that. He said disdainfully as she let him stand on her palm and climbed back to her shoulder. Nierka saw Loki stop and turn back, "What now?" She asked irritated.

"And you shouldn't tempt me to melt your precious staff." Ward rolling his eyes a little, he figured that the group would've run off after a conversation with some sort of God and a winged woman, so he didn't really care if they knew about his powers.

Willa leaned against the wall looking at Garth and smiled glancing around she didn't see any cops, she hadn't through the whole time she'd been here, she took another sip of his coffee before pulling out a bit of his cash that she'd taken from him, as well as his wallet and held them up so he could see them.

Garth gave Willa a curious look and gave a small snicker, half amused and half surprised. "I didn't know anyone else liked black coffee and backwash so much. They usually didn't like the bitterness or all the spit in there." Then as usual, he blabbered on a bit more, "Y'know, the most interesting part is that my saliva often gives it flavor. It might be because I don't brush my teeth that often, Mom always got mad at us for that."
After looking down in thought, he swiftly glanced back at Willa when he felt his wallet slip free of his back pocket. He gave a little inaudible sigh, as he didn't keep all his money in simply a wallet. He was a pick pocket, as well, no point in doing the same as your victims. However, his stash of euros lay in there. Yes, he had a collection of euros.
With a small frown, he asked, "You left the coins, I hope. Those were a bit hard to get, and they're my only entertainment-kinda, sometimes. Well, I still have quarters, but they're too light."
You do realize this person has no idea what we're talking about, right?
Yep, but I'd rather teleport.
Wait, what?
Precisely.
Garth then watched Loki go, as he wanted to notice someone leave for once. Yet, as Loki transformed himself, he had to burst out laughing. He turned the scepter into a walking cane, or stick, it was basically the same thing. Of all things, a stick. Perhaps there was a good reason, though. Loki was an old man, after all.
Garth only watched that one action, and practically ignored the other two new people.

Loki raised an eyebrow at Nierka, and he scoffed at Ward's comment. "It is Chitauri-forged metal, crafted from some of the most durable material within the nine realms. Your earth's sun could not melt it." He responded haughtily. At this point, he did not know if the other man knew who exactly he was, but he was at least positive that there were few within the world who did not know what the Chitauri were. After all, their countless bodies had littered the streets of New York even after the battle had ended and the dust had cleared. What a mess that must have been to clean up.

As much 'fun' as all of this was, Loki really had no reason to stick around. He doubted that any of them could be of use to him, and most of these people even saw fit to mock him, as evident by the sudden bark of laughter that escaped from Garth's mouth. The god's eyes landed on Garth curiously, unsure what exactly had prompted the laughter. Was it something he had said, or perhaps his appearance? Much to his own surprise, Loki felt heat rise into his face, though he swiftly masked the redness with an illusion of his usual pallor.

With clenched fists, Loki once more began to leave. He had made up his mind. He would find the damned 'motel' and speak with Skye. As much as he disliked her earlier stalking of him, he had to admit that she had potential as an ally. Since she was a former agent of SHIELD, the others might still trust her, which of course he could use to his own advantage. Willa's comment about Skye also pushed it's way to the forefront of his mind. 'For some reason the girl likes you.' She had said, and Loki thought that he may be capable of manipulating those feelings, as well.

Carter Eilian Tags: open

Questions. They had asked him so many questions. Carter's head was ringing as he left the medical wing. The doctors had pumped so much medicine into his system as they attempted to flush out whatever was causing his hallucinations. They thought that someone had drugged him. An interrogation of sorts had followed. They wanted to know everything he had consumed within the past day. They demanded to know if he had left the SHIELD facility at all recently, and asked for the names of people who he had come into contact with. He told them of his time with Hydra, even though he was sure that they already knew. In the end, the solution had been almost laughably simple. Cognitive re-calibration. They had knocked him out cold.

The blonde man ran a hand through his hair, trying to sooth the headache pounding within his skull. To say that the past few days of his life had been eventful would be quite an understatement. Never before had Carter been dragged through such a roller coaster of conflicting emotions, and if he was being completely honest with himself, he's quite worn out. Abducted, shot, rescued, infected, cured... But hey, at least he had made some friends. Finally. He had no idea where those two friends were, though. He hadn't seen them since deciding to have a medic take a look at him.

With a heavy sigh, Carter sat down within one of the break rooms located on the main floor of the facility, ignoring the stares of his fellow agents. He was already aware that he looked like hell. He didn't need their concerned faces to confirm that fact.

Willa rolled her eyes yet handed him back the cup, she looked at Garth. She had no use for coins, euros or not., though he was right for a gypsy like themselves it was stupid for them to keep all their money in one place, she turned and watched the dark haired man leave and ignored it.

Skye who had given the man at the front desk a fake name, Laura, sat on her rented bed watching T.V. she found daytime television boring, but at the same time she needed something to do, since this place had no Wi-Fi she couldn't really use her laptop, getting increasingly bored she stood from the bed, she had changed from her S.H.I.E.L.D uniform into jeans and a black tank top, she knew that it wasn't really practical, but she also knew that she could always shop. She bent over and kicked herself up into a hand stand and started doing push ups, something she had gained muscle memory of. She knew that if the Asguardian came, she wouldn't give up any information, unless it was what he already knew. It wouldn't be because of anything that he might think of as stubborn, but, she had learned from both her C.O's that it was a very bad Idea to share info from S.H.I.E.L.D to anyone outside the agency, though she wouldn't let him know.

((Don't worry about it, Kat, I actually enjoy coming back to read a nice couple handfuls of posts. Catching up is never really too much a big problem, either.))

Garth Ragnarson: Tags- Willa
Garth gratefully took his coffee back from Willa. He took a sip and frowned, she'd taken out all the flavor. No flavor, no point. He tossed the lid before pouring out the still warm liquid, then threw the cup to follow. Staring at it for a second, he looked back at Willa with a relatively happy face. "Anyways, hate to cut this lovely meeting short, but you're a bit too silent for my type."
Garth made his way to leave, stuffing his hands in his pocket and turning on his heel, but stopped.
"Speaking of silence, I'm forgetting something," Garth turned back to look at Willa and quickly snatched his wallet before dashing off.
"I have kittens to take care of!" He called over his shoulder. It took until the end of the street before Garth realized he waa going the wrong way. Some people glared at him for shoving through, but he just smiled and ran through the New York crowd again.
With his coat billowing behind him, Garth spotted a police car and possibly SHIELD agents in the spot where Garth had followed Loki into the alley. The authorities appeared to be questioning citizens about the scene, and a couple of them spotted him and shouted about his actions. Quickly slipping into the crowd, the man made sure he wasn't spotted again.
After he was a good deal out of the way, he continued to run, not forgetting to wave at the SHIELD building, because who knows why. It was just hilarious to him.
At last he'd made it to his apartment. Shoving past a couple of neighbors he opened his door to find three mewling kittens rolling over his couch.
He shut the door behind him and snapped his fingers to bring the kittens to the kitchen. Grabbing a small plate, he grab a can of tuna and dumped it on the plate, setting a small bowl of warm milk right next to it.
"Alright kittens, sorry I'm late but food is served," Garth muttered, tickling the little silver and black fur balls.

Location: S.H.I.E.L.D

Bright, white dots danced across Harley's vision. The slightest noise felt like an explosion that left her ears ringing through her skull. Everything after her talk with Carter, Beth, and Lewis was nothing but a blur of colors. The ginger had noticed Carter headed to the medical wing, and she lost Lewis at some point. Her hallucinations had kicked in after she lost sight of Carter and Lewis. She had been flying down staircases and through hallways. That is until she slammed straight into a S.H.I.E.L.D agent. Thus earning her a tranquilizer to her shoulder and a busted lip. What a wonderful week this had all turned out to be.

She was taken to the medical wing, only catching glimpses of S.H.I.E.L.D faces through her flickering hallucination. They'd pumped her with steroids to keep her relaxed as they pretty much sent her through an interrogation. Eventually everything came spilling out. The only part the doctors paid attention to was she told them about the mailroom. That's where she'd first seen the two S.H.I.E.L.D agents arguing about lost hair and other strange things, and where Harley herself had started to hallucinate. So then the doctors and nurses began. Pumping her blood with steroids and an IV drip. To say the least it didn't end very well. The nurses had stopped their work as new faces entered, and they conversed with their heads low and together. Harley caught the words 'Carter' 'hallucinate' and re-cal.'

Harley stumbled out of the medical wing with her skull feeling like it was going to splinter. They'd knocked her out like she heard they had done to Carter. She looked like crap. Dark circles under her dull blue eyes, split lip, ginger hair in a mess and black uniform twisted and wrinkled. Harley sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. During her time in the medical wing she discovered that all of her powers had finally returned. And boy had that been interesting. The ginger duplicated her self twice, but they were translucent and flickered. And off they went. One to find Lewis, and the second to find Carter.

Willa watched Garth leave the alleyway, then looked around, she spotted Agents walking into the Alleyway and stepped backwards, she didn't like cops, or any people in suits actually, but here the Suits were, walking into the alleyway in front of her. She took a step towards the dumpster, she'd seen the wall before and knew it had indents that would work well for climbing up it.
