Tell me about it. But he's been running around this reality for months, I don't think he's going to pull off anything he hasn't already tried.

The other option is letting him in the clubhouse. I don't think he's earned that.

[shield]

Yeah, maybe he's better off isolated than somewhere he can drum up support. And we definitely don't want him near the tesseract.

[ Yeah, he's assuming they both ended up here one the way home from time heisting. ]

Speaking of which, what are the odds we could use it to get back?

@widow

[redhourglass]

( whoa whoa whoa — )

you have the tesseract? how?

[shield]

@widow Tony has it.

[ ... ]

@ironman You do have it, right?

[ingeniar]

Why would I have it?

[shield]

Because that was the plan! I got the particles, you got the tesseract. Did you lose it AGAIN?

[ingeniar]

Okay, one, I didn't lose it the first time. Two, what the hell are you talking about?

[shield]

I'm talking about the time heist. The mission we were on just before the quantum realm spit us out here.

[ Okay so... they traveled through space to get here, it's not impossible that they also traveled through time. ]

We were plucking the stones from different points in time. Maybe the same thing happened to us?

[redhourglass]

it hasn't happened for me yet
that was the plan, but we didn't get a chance to do it

what's the last thing you remember from home?

[shield]

Tony and I had just secured the tesseract and were headed back to 2023. We had to detour to 1970 to get it because it vanished along with Loki the first time around.

[ The last tidbit he mentions so they're all aware that the Loki in this world may be from their original timeline or the one that branched out from their botched first attempt. ]

Nat, if you're familiar with the plan, you can't be too far behind me.

Tony, what do you remember?

[ingeniar]

Well, I definitely don't remember to agreeing to a "time heist". Who came up with that name anyway?

Also, travelling through time in general? Bad idea. Terrible idea. So obviously it's going to happen.

The last thing I remember is having breakfast with Pepper. I hadn't seen either of you in weeks. Months. The whole "retired" part of "semi-officially retired".

[redhourglass]

try over a year for me

it sounds like we're all out of order - tony is furthest behind, i'm in the middle, then rogers

[redhourglass]

( ANYWAY ... thisisfine.png )

i'm not leaving arcadia yet
something stinks here

[ingeniar]

Strange strongly advised against it.

[redhourglass]

not everyone here has a magician pulling them out of a hat
and someone needs to keep an eye on loki

[ingeniar]

Yeah, can someone tell me when it became our job to babysit Loki?

[redhourglass]

you have a better idea?

[shield]

It became our job when he somehow convinced everyone here that he can be trusted.

[ingeniar]

Hate to be the one to say it, but we're outside of our jurisdiction here. And throwing him in a cell didn't exactly work out last time.

[shield]

We're talking about keeping tabs on him, not throwing him in a cell. Besides, from what I understand, he's already in one.

[redhourglass]

until we know what arcadia is, we can't leave him without a babysitter
you boys are lucky i'm volunteering

[ingeniar]

Is that what you're doing?

[redhourglass]

i already asked if you had a better idea
enlighten me on what you think i'm doing
