Might be that we just have to learn to deal with not understanding it.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor grimaces, tipping his head back to stare at the ceiling.]

Maybe. But that feels ... incomplete.

[outstandingbalance]

It does. [Which is why learning to accept it is so difficult. She says the word to Thor, but it doesn't satisfy her either.]

[rebuildyourruins]

[He's silent for a long few moments, turning his thoughts around in his head. Natasha will know he's about to speak again when he gives himself a slight shake and turns to her.]

There is one thing we must understand though. What we intend to do next.

[outstandingbalance]

[Because they have to do something.]

You have any ideas? I'm all ears.

[rebuildyourruins]

Nothing solid yet. But Loki has said he can put an enchantment on my hammer that will let us track the Stones.

[It may not hold beyond this place, and their memories might not either. As always, though, Thor refuses to countenance the idea. He's leaving with everything intact.]

Because we must find Thanos.

[outstandingbalance]

[Natasha doesn't argue that. She doubts it'll be that easy, but if they don't remember this conversation at all, it's not like she'd get the chance to say I told you so.]

That's not a plan. It might be a start, if we had an idea what to do with him when we found him.

[rebuildyourruins]

I know what I intend to do with him.

[No prizes for guessing. After a moment, he relents.]

But it's what to do with the Stones that is of greater concern.

[outstandingbalance]

He still has all the stones, and we're down half our number.

[For the obvious reason.]

I'm not disagreeing, but there's a lot we need to figure out before we get to what we'd do with Thanos.

[rebuildyourruins]

I know.

[Little though he likes it. He'd go off by himself if he had the location, but even he knows that would be a bit too reckless. Especially if there's something they can do about those lost.]

There is not much we can plan here either. Even if we remember this, it is just the two of us who remember the whole situation. That makes it harder to involve the others.

[outstandingbalance]

Considering how things have gone so far, we'll probably suddenly wake up and remember... I don't know. The end of the world, at this rate.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor has to snort at that, because - he's already done that once. Wouldn't it be ironic if it happened again.]

If the pattern holds true, maybe. But I think it would be hard to remember worse than what we've already had.

[outstandingbalance]

Only one way to know for sure. [And she certainly hopes it doesn't come to that. If there's anything worse than what they've already suffered, she doesn't want to know what it is.] That—got darker than I intended.

[rebuildyourruins]

...it happens.

[He knows that all too well. The conversations that gravitate towards that black hole where their last moments on Earth were spent.]

We can speak of something else.

[outstandingbalance]

Might be better for the mood. [Especially with the few people who actually understand. Most of the time, Natasha doesn't struggle to keep her mouth shut. She shrugs.] But if you need to get it out...?
