hi @ everyone

i woke up here months ago. there bus were were on crashed and there was a firefight after. not everyone managed to get out and not everyone made it to the safehouse. i remember some of the faces of those who were on the bus with me and the others that did make it.

of those of us who were at the facility, our newest wave of arrivals? at least some were on that bus with us.

i don't know whether you've been held captive there or elsewhere for all those months, i don't know if this is true for everyone we met at the facility and i don't know what this means in the grand scheme of things, but i figure we should all know.

oh, and a lot has been happening lately, so this isn't entirely up to date, but those of us who've been around a while wrote up an arrival guide. it might answer some questions, at least.

Yes. Thor was among them.

[covertness]

yeah, and i miss him
hence the question how you're doing

[selfimage]

It's as usual, you could say.
This isn't the first time he's left.

[ in general.

but Loki doesn't say that. ]

[covertness]

guess you're right about that

[selfimage]

He always has his own agenda, regardless, even if it means leaving people.

[covertness]

i doubt he had much choice in leaving
i doubt any of them did

[selfimage]

Not everyone is Thor.

[covertness]

i hadn't noticed

[selfimage]

Please.
You know as well as I do that he's not just anyone.

[covertness]

yeah, i do
but i honestly think it makes no difference in this
he didn't have a choice the last times he disappeared and reappeared

[selfimage]

I'm still debating that.
Choice just doesn't come in one way, but in others, too. Well-wishes and daydreams are nearly as powerful, depending on the context.

[covertness]

what are the pro and con arguments?

[selfimage]

The pros and cons to what?
Is this a lesson of some sort?

[ so he's still a little sour. ]

[covertness]

if anything, i'm trying to get you to teach me something

[selfimage]

Indulge me.

[covertness]

in what?

[selfimage]

What you'd like me to teach you.

[covertness]

the power of dreams and wishes
why you think your brother had more choice than others, or why you think everyone has more choice than i think
either of those

you said you're debating if he had a choice
what are the arguments?

[selfimage]

My brother is Thor, he always has a choice, that's what makes him so frustrating.
Gods are never just dictated by their literal involvement, but by their own personal wishes. It's part of our nature.

He wanted to go back to Asgard, and he's there now, I'd assume.

[covertness]

i hope that's true

[ because it might mean that fitz is back home, too. that peggy is. ]

[selfimage]

We all do have other things to attend to that aren't here.

[covertness]

yes
but for most of us, just wishing ourselves back home doesn't seem to have any effect

[selfimage]

The rest of you aren't imprints on reality.

[covertness]

what do you mean by imprints?

[selfimage]

That's a loaded question.
