on app plans falling through

[spangled]

Hey, it's fine. I'm not exactly rushing to get out there just yet and besides, looking before leaping is always a good idea. Leastways, it's better than having to look over your shoulder afterward.

... Unless you got a parachute handy, of course.

[liugan]

You need to learn how to aim better, then.

[spangled]

Kinda hoping I won't have to do that, though. It would involve more ... falling out of things.

[liugan]

Not a fan? What a pity. Though, I suppose that tends to be the case with most of you mortals. Always afraid of the inevitable splat.

[spangled]

Hey, crashing isn't fun. Even if I do have a higher likelihood of bouncing back than the, uh, average mortal does.

[liugan]

No need to lecture me, Captain, I'm well aware of just how much fun crash landing from high places is.

[spangled]

I wasn't lecturing, I -- [ Pauses and ... head-tilts. ] How well aware?

[liugan]

With the Bifröst destroyed, how else do you think I ended up in this realm?

[spangled]

Ouch.

I'm guessing you didn't have a parachute around, either.

[liugan]

Unfortunately not. Lost my helmet as well.

[spangled]

Was it a good helmet?

[liugan]

It was better than Thor's.

[spangled]

It had ... bigger wings at the sides?

[liugan]

Mine has horns.

[spangled]

Like a viking helmet.

[liugan]

If you must compare it to such a barbaric race, yes, I suppose.

[spangled]

I didn't mean it in a bad way, you know. And I'm sorry to hear that you lost it.

[liugan]

I doubt you ever mean anything you say in a bad way, Captain. And I appreciate the sentiment.

[spangled]

I can do you one better. Help you find it, if you'd like.

[liugan]

I'm afraid it may not have even landed in this realm. Perhaps instead, you could help me find a new one?

[spangled]

Sounds like a plan. How do you feel about goggles? I know they're not as exciting as horns, but they can be useful.

[liugan]

[ blink. ... blink. ] "Goggles?"

[spangled]

Goggles. You know, like this. [ behold, Steve's old army helmet! ] See? To protect your eyes.

[liugan]

[ Hmm. Don't mind him prying that strange contraption from your helmet and inspecting it, Steve dear. ] This doesn't seem very intimidating.
