Okay, I get that if you're under eighteen, you get a check every month from the City. That's good, but I'd feel better if I worked for my money. I've been waiting tables which is... okay, but we eat out a lot and all the ramen is starting to rack up. I could use a second job if anybody is hiring. I'm very athletic and can do a decent amount of lifting and other manual labor so if you know somebody who knows somebody who needs somebody, let me know?

Or if they need security. I'll do security too. [Going from superhero to toy cop. Epic downgrade, Katherine.]


[Private to the Avengers, Coulson, Neil, and Todd.]

From what I understand is that Billy's at home now, so it's best you try not to ask Teddy about him today. Or how Teddy's doing himself. He's pretty down about it, understandably.

[A pause.]

Don't tell him I told you this.

Comments

[joiedeviolet]

Totally, if you go around telling everybody about it when they never asked.

[doeswhathewants]

I was only pointing out the validity of my advice and in lieu of offering references in the form of satisfied advice takers, offered my own take on my own abilities.

[joiedeviolet]

But you telling me your advice is good doesn't really do much for me. It's like one of those self-published authors trolling their own review spaces with five star ratings on Amazon.

[doeswhathewants]

Thus you could attempt my advice and find out for yourself, after all, what part of my advice was suspect? [LOL] Tsk, that is hardly trolling, that is simply pathetic. Trolling would be writing a fan fiction better than the book and linking it in a low scoring review of the self published work on Amazon.

[joiedeviolet]

You don't want me to answer that. I bet you would do that too.

[doeswhathewants]

Not at all. I am hardly a scribe and have little time to pen a fan fiction. Unless the author personally annoyed me.

Kate, may I ask you a serious question?

[joiedeviolet]

What?

[doeswhathewants]

What was the last major thing that happened in the world before you came here?

[joiedeviolet]

[Yeah, that is not a question she is going to answer right now. Nope. No sir.]

Why?

[doeswhathewants]

As per usual, something bad is happening and I only wish to know if you have seen the outcome of it or whether you are behind the time I hail from.

[joiedeviolet]

What was happening when you left?

[doeswhathewants]

I am not sure I should say ... in case it might cause a paradox.

[joiedeviolet]

Then I shouldn't say what was happening when I left if that's the case.

[Sneaky Kate.]

[doeswhathewants]

Ah, shall we try it this way?

Giant Snake of Fear. Does it chime a bell?

[joiedeviolet]

No, but it probably will if you were a little more specific.

[doeswhathewants]

Odin's brother whom Thor was destined to kill. He was the sum of all fear and- and he gathered some to him through weapons, making them powerful.

[joiedeviolet]

[You mean your uncle... yeah, let's not go there right now. This family is so screwed up.]

Crap. This is what I have to look forward to when I get back?

[doeswhathewants]

[He would agree with you on that.] And Galactus. Worry not, I covered that one.

[joiedeviolet]

I'm scared to ask how.

[doeswhathewants]

I hid what he wanted. He did not have it, and neither did we, so ... he just moved on. Particularly clever on my part, I think.

[joiedeviolet]

Technically, you still have it if you know where it's hidden.

[Sigh. And this is why she will never trust you.]

[doeswhathewants]

But I do not know where it is hidden, that is the point. I dropped it so that the final destination and landing place would be ambiguous. Even if I had to find it, I could not.

[joiedeviolet]

What are we talking about anyway?

[doeswhathewants]

The world seed of Yggdrasil. If destroyed, all of the nine would collapse.

So important is it that Odin was about to let Galactus raze Midgard. Actually, Odin threatens to allow Midgard to be raised surprisingly often.

[joiedeviolet]

Probably payback for us letting Asgard fall apart over Oklahoma.
