more than weapons

Mjolnir picked up a piece of watermelon and held it out to Darcy. “I can be to her shortly. Try to keep her calm?” 

Jemma pulled the phone from her ear and looked at it with an ok look. She put it back to her ear. “I, um, I’m on a plane. Should I, meet her somewhere. We are headed to London.

After pressing a last kiss to Darcy’s hair, Mjolnir moved toward the sliding door to the balcony. She closed the door behind her before shifting back into her natural shape - the hammer. She honed in on Jemma, doing her best to get there as quickly as she was able.

Darcy smiled automatically leaning into Mjolnir. A small smile as she took the bowl. “Jemma from the bus. She says she needs to talk to you. Something about a present. You want the phone? I mean she sounds kinda panicky you might wanna go hug her.” 

Mjolnir picked up a piece of watermelon and held it out to Darcy. “I can be to her shortly. Try to keep her calm?” 

She dialed the number putting the phone to her ear as she moved. “Darcy.” She said to the girl’s voice on the other line. “Darcy I need to talk to Thor. What do you mean he isn’t on this planet? Dammit.” She felt tears hit her eyes as she plopped on the bed. “I.. I need to talk to Mjolnir is what it is about, I think, I think she gave me something.” 

She folded herself neatly back into her space next to Darcy on the couch, and held the bowl in Darcy’s direction. Thor was away from Midgard, on an ambassadorial trip to one of the other realms; Mjolnir was staying with Darcy until he called for her. 

“That’d be great if I could find one, but it’ll already be dark. I wasn’t built to see in the dark. I was built to hand people things.”

“If the lights were to go out, if you are near me I can provide light for you to see by until you can find one of the flameless torches.” 

“Y–yeah, but inside the power can go out. And when the power goes out it gets dark and really quiet. It’s unnerving.”

“That is what torches are for. Or... Flashinglights, I believe are what the handheld, fireless ones are called.” 

“Thunderstorms freak me out, okay?!”

“It is a common fear, though you are indoors and that should assuage some of your worry.”

“I– sorry?” He asked as he took the woman’s hand to shake. True, stranger things had happened, but objects being people? That just didn’t seem possible. Scientifically speaking it just didn’t add up. “Is this some Norse thing i’m not aware of?”

“It’s not a Norse thing as such, though the hammer can obtain human form at will.” She’d met with Mjolnir earlier, had spoken with her at length about what was going on. “This is only the third time I have been girl-shaped,” she told him, gesturing at her body after she released his hand. “You can call me Liberty, or Libby if you’d like. I know it is hard to reconcile, but I promise you that I am what I say I am. I believe that despite my appearance, if scanned I will read as vibranium more than anything.” 

Bruce took a moment to look the girl over, his brows coming together in confusion. How would it be that a woman that looked much younger than Tony and himself could know Howard– a man that had been dead for quite a few years. “I– ah. Who are you if you don’t mind me asking?”

Her eyebrows knit together in mild confusion, until she realized that not everyone knew about her and that she had no obvious traits to show what she really was. “Oh! My apologies for not introducing myself before. I’m the Captain’s shield.” She held out her hand, as a person did when introducing themselves.

“Steve? Last I saw him he was in one of the auditoriums. And don’t you worry, I haven’t been doing anything that needs my dire attention.”

“Oh my gosh, thank you.” Her shoulders sagged in relief. “I’m very glad that I ran into you, Doctor Banner. The last person I ran into was Tony Stark and I have to admit,” she dropped her voice a little after a quick look around, “I like him far less than I liked his father.”

“Yes, uh– Can I help you?”

“I’m sorry to bother you. I know you’re a busy man, but I was wondering if you’d seen Captain Rogers recently? I seem to have gotten a little turned around.”

"Auras are the energy generated by every living thing, and they are unique to the item generating them. That is how you knew me."
