testing voices (spoilers ahoy?)

[otherguy]

I- Yeah, I'm pretty sure this headspace is too crowded for any of this to be a good idea. I don't think you realize what you're doing, wanting me up here.

Call it whatever you want- experiment, muse, bandwagon, whim. Just. You should have kept me out of it.

I shouldn't be here.

It is no shame to be upon this band of wagons, Banner. These mortals pay us homage, extolling our great victory so that all my know of our might.

test ALL the voices!

[otherguy]

She keeps insisting that it's not "bandwagon-ing," since she already has half a dozen "muses" from our reality, just that all of them are "side characters." Which is what I'd prefer to be anyway.

Guys like you have got plenty of might to go around. Me? I'd rather stay away from anything mighty.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Muns never listen.

[otherguy]

[ Oh god a child. ]

Apparently not.

Uh, did you lose your babysitter or something? 'Cause I'm probably not the best guy to hang around with.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

[Excuse you good sir this is not a child this is a pint sized vigilante.]

I can take care of myself.

[courtedwar]

Do not speak so. All in our number are to be deemed mighty, and you especially so. You have such strength as to face the prince of Asguard bare-handed, and intellect enough to rival that of Stark.

Show me others who can boast the same.

[otherguy]

Yeah, that first one? Wasn't exactly me.

[ He's too humble to address the second point. ]

[otherguy]

Sure, I'm sure you can. Just maybe you should go take care of yourself ... somewhere else?

[courtedwar]

Why do you fear to claim his achievements as your own?

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Why? [A pause and she watches him with a bit of concern.] Are you okay? You're not sick or somethin', are you?

[otherguy]

Because they're not. My own!

[ Whoops, sorry. Momentary burst of anger. Followed by clenched hands and a carefully controlled tone. ]

I. Prefer... to keep the-- him-- ...us. Separate.

[otherguy]

Sick? No. Well, sort of. I have a ...condition.

It's best not to stay too close to me.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Oh. [Huh.] Okay.

[Staying where she is. See? Mindy can be nice sometimes.] Do you have a name?

[courtedwar]

[... that was unexpected. to Thor. Everyone else probably saw it coming]

It was not my intent to insult. I shall remember this in the future.

[otherguy]

[ Staying where she is is good. Going far far away is better. ]

Oh, yeah. 'Course. I'm, uh, Bruce.

[otherguy]

That's alright. Most people don't get it, so I wouldn't expect you to either. Being that you're from another planet.

... I don't think he likes you very much.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

[She's not that smart, Bruce. She's too curious for her own good.] I'm Mindy. Good luck with your mun. I hope if she does send you somewhere, it's somewhere cool.

[otherguy]

Thanks. [ He just hopes he sends her somewhere remote. And quiet. And with little population. ]

You too. Mindy.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Mine has plans to send me to a pocket dimension that has some guy in it that I won't like, just because he looks like a douche-bag back home. But apparently he's just some dumb teenage vampire. I don't know if that's cool or not.

[courtedwar]

We have no warriors like you in Asgard, it is true.




I have had this thought also. Perhaps he is unused to his allies having strength as great as his.

[sonsomnia]

None of us should, Bruce Banner, and yet here we are.

[Hey sup it's the Allfather nothing to get hung up about bro]

[otherguy]

Oh... kay. [ Those were a lot of words that he's sure mean something on their own, but strung together in that combination have passed right over his head. ]

Would this be one of those shining romance novel vampires? [ Bruce's understanding of popular culture is shaky at best. ]

[otherguy]

I'm not a warrior. I'm a scientist. A scientist who, through unfortunate circumstance has been exposed to a warlike environment, but a scientist all the same.

He's unused to having allies period. You may have noticed, but he's generally interested in tearing up everything and everyone. What happened down there- that attack... one of the few times we've been able to work toward a purpose. There are very few things he will fight to protect. [ Betty, this team... ] Everything else is fair game.

[otherguy]

[ What. Thought all the dudes in wacky headgear went home. ]

That unfortunately seems to be the case, most places I go.



Aren't you a little far from, uh, Asgard? [ Venturing an educated guess... ]

[chucknorris_dino]

[Suddenly a baby dinosaur.]

Gon.
