We call this Tuesday

Are you saying that I have less than half a brain, Tin Man?

Oh please, I'm the one who keeps you around.

I’m sorry, can you repeat that? For a second there, I thought you didn’t understand what I was getting at. 

Turn your hearing aid up.

And that means what, exactly?

You say that like people care, Stark.

As long as it's me and not Danny. How's my girl?

Mortal…men… Ah! Which should explain the absence of my own host and I had merely awoke on that plane, for Donald Blake and I have long been separated into two entities, yet, none else have dealt with mortal hosts such as I— Why, they could be anywhere! E’en in thee perhaps! [Squints and stares] Or not.

No, I've had my fill of having my body used as a host. But maybe we should start looking in the city first? They'd look the same, right? I can help you look if you want. The idea of them having hosts is more than likely plausible and probably the truth.

I ne’er made it to Valhalla.  Or my memories of such place taken away. [Pauses a bit] I remember blackness, a void. A sea of nothing but I in it. Then… voices, figures… They spoke in terms of belief in me. And now, I walk among those I thought I wouldst ne’er see again. I awoke in Asgard— Rubble of it. A mere stone of it’s former glory. And there were none but I.

So then you search for them. You search and you look for any sign of life from your people, Thor. Perhaps they are in voids, too. Maybe they just need someone to find them.

There are few who can, and I know better than to invoke thy wrath. [Sighs] The fate of a new Asgard is on my shoulders, so I must live so that others may do so as well. [Rubs his face in frustration] But I have no lead to where others could be, if they are to be at all.

So we have a legion of Asgardian warriors that aren't in Valhalla? So that means they...survived? Well, not survived, but... Are lost?

A terrible habit, I must admit. [Approaches her and gives a nod] I have missed thee greatly, blond one.

I guess I missed ya too, big guy. Don't go pulling anymore stunts like that or I might have to hurt you.
