I cannot decide whether to find this rather unexpected set of circumstances to be fascinatingly new or simply very aggravating. [No, that's actually a lie. He's very annoyed--mostly because it put a kink to his current on-going ~~bid for power~~ plot to usurp his brother's ascension to the throne.] However, that is not the point of this message. I am merely pointing out that I am obviously new to this ship and as such I would endeavor to enlist some form of aid for but one problem worrying me; one that, at the least, could be addressed immediately.

I am looking for someone. To be precise, I am looking into the possibility that one or several persons may have have arrived or awoken at the time that I did. Their names:

Thor
Sif
Fandral
Hogun
Volstagg

If you have met any of these individuals or have any information concerning them: I apologize for any uncultured behavior quite probably displayed by them and I would like a word. Preferably about their whereabouts. If you are any one of those individuals: I am blaming you for this folly and, as usual, I am certain I will be the one to fix your unfortunate mistake. [Because it never failed to occur in such fashion. According to his own view-point.] Be patient, and contact me through this network.

[ the names on the list posted are what get clint's attention. he was there in new mexico when the destroyer came to take out thor and his friends. besides, natasha had already filled him in on thor paying the ship of visit, so he's not surprised everyone's echoing that back to the anonymous newcomer in their response.

but that's not what's got clint suspicious. ]

That's quite the friendlist, as far as Asgardians go.

Have you seen any of them on board this vessel?

[He doubts it but he's also avoiding any sort of actual reply.]

Like the others said, a couple of them were here before. None such luck no as far as I can tell.

[ not that clint saw any of them, but this guy doesn't need to know that. ]

Y'know it's not their fault you're here though, right? Even if they do end up showing up.

It would not have been on purpose had it been their fault. Not likely. They lack a certain ... aspect for such an event.

But if they show, I would like to know. Thor, in particular, would do best with me at his side.

Are you saying they're dumb? It's ok, they're not here to be pissed off about it.

[ yeah, ok, maybe he's being a little less hostile despite his better instinct to assume this is who he suspects. ]

That so? He seemed like he could take care of himself. When he was here, anyway.

I am saying they have neither the intelligence nor the capacity for it. Neither means or reason to preform the deed.

Oh, no. It is not physical protection that he needs at all. His physical prowess knows no bounds. [If text could hold biting scorn there would be a verily vast amount right there, folks. And that's an understatement.] It is the other thing that he quite lacks.

[ yup he's calling them dumb, but clint can let it go. more pressing things here than ye old semantics. ~~which he's the worst at, why are you even trying barton?~~

sibling rivalry? check. clint didn't need a SHIELD dossier on the asgardian princes to that was their deal. he makes a note of this number for future reference. ]

Well you seem like a pretty great friend broadcasting that over the whole network. I guess I don't blame you for being pissed, given the circumstances. Taken off guard like the rest of us.

They are not here to see it. That has already been well established at this point. [This is where Loki would have paused and given a long suffering sigh. Not that Clint can pick up on that through the text function.] I am not upset with them, I am merely frustrated. This was very ill timed and I fear for them.

I gathered. People have a tendency to come back, though. You might be reunited with them yet.

[ clint hopes, because he's pretty sure they're no match for loki without a couple of asgardians on their side, should he try anything. but in the mean time... ]

Were you suppose to be meeting them somewhere?

I am uncertain if that would be a good or ill thing to wish to happen. If they are simply where I left them...

[Then they're fine, mostly fine, and Loki has no reason to wish them here. On the other hand... maybe if Thor and company were here he would have less to worry about back in Asgard.]

I was with them. We were traveling together.

[ there's no way in hell thor would have been travelling with loki after everything that happened with the chitauri. maybe this has to do with people's lives not syncing up timeline wise here like natasha mentioned to him... ]

If it helps, I've heard that sometimes when we go back home it's like we never left, for what it's worth. Can't really confirm that myself.

[ he's glad this isn't audio, cause damn if he'd be able to make that comfort sound cordial. duplicity isn't his strong suit. ]

Edited 2013-04-30 21:19 (UTC)

It is some small comfort. The mention is appreciated, and I shall keep it in mind.

No problem—didn't catch your name.

[ yes -10 points to cleverness but he's trying a least. ]

Yes. Because I have yet to reveal it thus far.

It's ok if you're shy.

[ reel it in, barton. ]

[Actually, he laughed.]

I have been waiting for the right person ... to play the game and make the connection.

This some sort of Guess The Demi-God thing, or were other people's guesses just not doing it for you?

[ of course he'd want to do this...clint's just stupid enough to want to play, just to knock him down a peg. (if only clint do it wouldn't be so easy to do) ]

Funny thing: people seem to want a name to go with the person behind the words. But I find it rather boring to simply give it away so very easily.

However, I do enjoy a good game with the right person to play it.

I guess we have a number, should be enough right?

[ he's not interested in playing loki's little game. he's had enough of those for a lifetime. ]

Perhaps not ideal but it allows one to keep track of all the players.

[Pity.]

I'd say that's pretty ideal to some of us.

[ it really is, but he'd rather not deal with the judgement of his fellow avengers if he decided to engage this further. so, he'll walk away.

(this time, at least) ]

Good luck with that. Who knows, Thor might turn up.

Interesting.

[Suspicious is more like it. Consider the admission duly noted. You, sir, have something to hide and Loki will absolutely be keeping an eye out for what.]

I shall keep an eye out for him. Perhaps the Fates shall be kind.
