ODINSON! Whatever trick or spell has brought me here, I know it was your doing. I will not be toyed with, craven! Come whence the shadows you hide in or I will hunt you down and drag you out of them, and I will not be gentle.

You think yourself king of Asgard? Then face me like a warrior of Asgard. I would see you answer for your deceits and treachery!

Loki has been helpful to us in our need. He has even repaired me.

It may not weigh into your grievance, but I feel I must speak up for him.

He is capable of helping others when it suits his needs. [ said with a touch of bitterness. before this all began, she would have thought Loki's character better than she has seen. ]

Nonetheless, I will give your words their due consideration. Your name?

We all share some common needs, here. To survive, hopefully to escape. It is a small enough bond, but he has done more than many others would have.

[He knows--he hopes--when to back off. He's said what he wants to say. Anything more, well...she has a right to her own justice.]

I am Wing. And thank you.

I am not without the ability to listen to reason and wisdom. [ with a small hint of a smile ]

I am the Lady Sif.

[He visibly relaxes. They need to work together, all of them. He smiles back. ]

Lady Sif.

[It occurs to him he hasn't asked the important question, simply presumed.]

Did you awake on the ship?

No, I was brought here by the Bifrost, though this realm was not my destination.

[Wing has....no idea what that is.]

Is that the name of your ship? [They could use a working ship. At least one with working nav.]

It's strange: many of us woke up here, prisoners. But why you would be brought here?

It is the name of the bridge between realms.

Perhaps it is because of my origin; Loki too says he was within the Bifrost's power when he was struck from its grasp.

So you travel between planets by something like a space bridge?

[Magic doesn't translate well to robots.]

How do you recontact it? [If they could get a message out...?]

....if you are allowed to answer that. [He does understand military secrets--before they left Cybertron, they had instituted the Tyrest Accords, to prevent their technology to fall into the hands of other species. It made sense that perhaps this Bifrost might fall under the same.]

You might call it that, yes. In the normal way Heimdall, he who watches over the Bifrost and whose perception is not limited by the vastness of space, would hear my call and send the bridge to me.

But he has not heard, or he hears but is unable to do anything. [ And that troubles her deeply. Few things are beyond her brother's reach. ]

[He's not sure what to make of that, but it seems important.]

And so you are stranded. Thus far none of us have been able to contact our people.

Tell me, Lady Sif: does this place look at all familiar to you?

It resembles no place I have been to or seen.

Hrm. [He looks puzzled.]

So this is not, you think, of your universe? It seems strange, the two origins of us refugees; I wonder if we're connected.

That, I could not say: I am a poor student of the cosmos.

Connected in what way?

It is a vast place, I think. There are areas my kind barely knows, and things that defy even our science.

[He shrugs. His theories have been wrong before.] Those of us who awakened on the ship. It appears we were taken by someone as hostages, or subjects. But can they be the same people who twisted space to bring you, and Loki and Kara Thrace here?
