[allegorical]

This place is cursed.

[An irate looking Thor is looking into the device feed, holding his weapon tightly in one hand.]

There are... things--devils--stalking this ship. I haven't caught them yet, but I will.

[There's a flicker of doubt in his expression. He wouldn't ask so openly, but Tony didn't wake up, and now he's alone.]

Has no one else seen them...? [Maybe it really is just him. He can't tell. Thor grows surly again.]

At the very least, there shall be a few less monsters in the halls.

[Pepper has been doing some 'light' reading since she woke up and found her room. This hasn't been mentioned though.]

What makes you think they're devils?

[She doesn't actually believe in devils. In fact she's sure there's a reasonable explanation for whatever he's seeing.]

[Voice]

[allegorical]

They move faster than human eyes. No normal beast can manage that.

[He's pretty convinced.]

[She presses her lips together in a deep frown. He sounds crazy, there's no doubt about that. Still, this place seems to have had some unbelievable things happen to it. Hell, this place itself is unbelievable. Even so she feel like she's encouraging the man to look for Bigfoot, or something else completely unbelievable.

There has to be a logical explanation.]

Is ... is there a way to get surveillance footage of it?

[She winces slightly. Yeah, this all sounds really crazy right now.]

[allegorical]

I do not know. It would be better to ask someone who knows this ship better than I do.

[He doesn't deal with crew matters or anything of particular skill. And he doesn't care about trying to. That's all a little too official for his tastes.]

What do they look like?

I have caught glimpses of...something. But I can offer no description.

[Maybe Other Thor got a better look?]

[allegorical]

[He looks disappointed. So Thor hasn't seen them clearly either.]

I have not caught one yet to be certain. But they are there. Shadows stalking when I turn away. They are there.

[He's not crazy, right? These aren't hallucinations?]

[mjolnir_time]

[Thor nods slowly.]

Yes. Always seen from the corner of my eye, and only when there is no one else around who might see them.

[emergingspirit]

I have seen things as well, but I cannot call them devils. [Not when he hasn't seen them clearly, anyway.]

[allegorical]

They are monsters. Some cursed creatures belonging to this cursed ship.

[He can't either, which is evidently why he decided they are devils. It's mostly just his impression of them.]

When I catch them, I will end this game they are playing.

[emergingspirit]

Cursed creatures belonging to the ship, yes, but perhaps not monsters. Without knowing what they are, we cannot say for sure.

[altercate]

Which monsters.

[allegorical]

[Damn. Text, is it? He hates the devices as it is, but talking is easier. Ah well.]

Not the manticore. The shadows. I have seen them lurking, but they are too quick to catch. Yet.

[altercate]

[ sorry thor!! be his texting buddy y/n ]

They're just shadows. What makes you think there's anything to catch.

[klutziness]

I think we all see somethin', but I dunno about calling them devils.

[allegorical]

Call them what you will. I will dispose of them once I find them.

They try to torment us.

[klutziness]

I don't think there's much "try" about it.

[allfatherissues]

[Well, this must be alternate universe Thor. Loki has no doubt about it, based on simply appearance alone.]

You will catch them, will you? A bit difficult when they flicker across the corridors much like shadows, do you not think?

[Hi.]

video;

[allegorical]

[Based on what the other Thor has told him and Loki's appearance, the recognition is quick. He's somewhere between shock and anger and... something else. Conflicted. His grip on his weapon tightens slightly.]

You. [He almost growls.] I do not have time for your games. They are growing bolder, and I will not have it.

video;

[allfatherissues]

Games? [r u d e] I'm hurt. Do you treat all of your brethren from an alternate universe in such a way?

[Loki is obviously not offended at all, just amused.]

[nightblogs]

See, when you say devils - like, what do you mean, exactly? What do they look like?

[allegorical]

I- [Damn.] I do not know.

[That is a grudging admission.]

[nightblogs]

They're invisible?

[gothchicklit]

I've been almost seeing things since after the jump. [ And it's seriously fucking unsettling. ] Have you actually gotten a good look at what you've been seeing, or has it just been flashes?

video;

[allegorical]

Not yet. They move far too quickly for a clear look. [Which makes him more agitated, because he's a warrior.]

That is why I am going to them.

[gothchicklit]

[ Her eyebrows pull together slightly. ] How in the hell are you gonna do that? Do you know where they are?
