"Poor timing. Leave your name so I can seek you out in future."

[hevenly]

[ To Angela's credit, her lips do quirk into something resembling a smile. ]

I'll tell him you said so, should we cross paths again.

[worldsaway]

[Thor's face lights up just a little when he earns something close to a smile. He chuckles, happy to enjoy the moment before he speaks again.]

Am I keeping you?

[hevenly]

[ She shakes her head. ]

I have been granted time enough to say my goodbyes.

[ Though they all seem to be difficult things. She has already said her goodbyes to both Lokis, and both were emotional affairs. ]

[worldsaway]

Generous of them. [He has mixed feelings about their captors, but he has good reason to believe they are genuinely kind.]

Is there any unsettled business I can help you attend to? Anyone you need to rough up?

[hevenly]

[ Her lips turn upward at the offer. ]

No one I can't handle myself. [ Then her smile turns rueful, yet fond. ] In all seriousness, the people of this quarantine have been nothing but kind to me.

[worldsaway]

For a place that seems to pick people at random, they've done a surprisingly good job at picking surprisingly good people.

Should they ever deign to send me home, too, I think it would be a difficult choice to make.

[hevenly]

Yes, I can imagine it would. Had I not lost Sera once already...

[ She may have lingered as well, but in reality, there was no way she would stay while Sera exists elsewhere. ]

[worldsaway]

Do you know if you will remember anything about this place?

[That's one of his burning questions. He wants to remember his friends, how far he came with Loki, the family he met. He struggles to imagine forgetting that.]

[hevenly]

[ She shakes her head. ]

I do not know. I can only hope that I do. To forget... you and Loki are brothers to me. I would not wish to lose that.

[worldsaway]

Coming here at all was a surprise to me, who knows what will happen. Whether it's in the next few years or a century from now. [He smiles, warmly.]

You'll always be my big sister. And my only big sister, for that matter.

[hevenly]

[ She returns the smile, a little less warm because that's just who she is as a person, but no less genuine. ]

You remain my preferred iteration of the Odinson. More worthy than any Thor I've met.
