[When Thor woke up this morning to a trashed room and a communicator blinking stubbornly with unread messages, it took him a few moments to really ... parse it all. The lingering grogginess didn't help matters - and where that came from, he has no idea. Looking at the date on his communicator only further complicated things.

So it's with a definite air of confused irritation that he opens this feed. He has all the grace of someone who took a bad nap.]

All right. Three questions - how long have I been out, who destroyed my room, and why are we parked in the middle of a garbage heap?

[He did take some time to look out the window. It's not a good view.]

[Thor gives that some proper consideration before he replies.]

It is always possible, but Sakaar was a unique case. The whole planet was surrounded by wormholes and they were easy to see. I have yet to see anything like them during the Fleet's travels. I also wouldn't know which to use - Heimdall told me which was right back home. I haven't got his Sight.

[unbearablynaive]

Ah, I see. An unknown wormhole could lead us to disaster easily enough.

[At least right now they're in a well-populated corner of space, and almost never more than a few weeks out from any system if there should be a disaster.

And if that place was surrounded by wormholes, no wonder it had become a junkyard. Surprising it hadn't also become a crossroads, though.]

It's a shame he can't seem to contact us here, or we could all escape.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor scowls, reminded once again of the more frustrating aspects of this prison.]

There should be no place in the universe that Heimdall cannot see. If he could see me, I could speak with him, of that I am certain. [He'd done it once, after all.] It's that more than anything that makes me believe we are not within our own universe.

[unbearablynaive]

Or even one that's closely related to ours on the spectrum. [Live with three X-Men from three different timelines and learn all about parallel dimensions! It's fun, in that way that makes humans want to drink after thinking about it too much.]

Regardless, if we are to find a way out, I'm glad you're back to help us search for it.

[rebuildyourruins]

Worry not. My resolve hasn't wavered. There is a way out and we will find it.

[unbearablynaive]

[He actually visibly relaxes at that. It's good to have someone around who feels that way.]

I'll be with you every step of the way, if you can use my assistance.

[rebuildyourruins]

[It's a belief Thor holds on to fervently. He has no intention of being one of those who becomes resigned to the situation they're in. He has the benefit of being much older than most - even a year isn't long enough to shake him too deeply.]

Of course! In fact, there are some things I should speak to you about when I next see you in person.

[There's no way he's talking about his Marsiva assault over the network.]

[unbearablynaive]

[He can understand that well enough. Especially when his ship doesn't currently have a Communications officer - they can't even make basic encryptions right now.]

I'll look forward to the opportunity. I plan to be spending a fair amount of time down on the planet looking for parts for a project, or afterwards there are always our ships once we're back in Drift.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Ugh, right. The planet. Thor just shrugs, knowing he'll slog through it regardless of how little he wants to be out there.]

Planet's good. I'll see you around.

[unbearablynaive]

[It's very interesting as a place to visit. The Vision imagines he too would feel differently, if he'd been stuck in a similar place.]

I'll look forward to it.
