[sorcerous]

I require supplies.

Hand-forged iron. Bones that have seen the stars. Filaments that cast shadow instead of light. A tesseract.

And energy.

I am willing to bargain.

Hand-forged iron? I got the supply if you got the demand bro.


Not much use to this barter system yet though. What are you thinkin' of bargaining for?

voice;

[sorcerous]

You have needs; they claw at your veins. I can feel it from here.

[ This is a lie. Thanks, spycat! ]

voice;locked

[fireofunknown]

[There is nothing but silence from his end for a long moment. A very panicked and "How the fuck does he know that?" gullible silence.]

...okay yeah. But unless you happen to carry drugs on you, I don't think you can help me much there.

voice;locked

[sorcerous]

I am a deft hand at brewing, and there are herbs aplenty in these woods.

voice;

[atwar]

A tesseract.

voice;

[sorcerous]

You heard me correct.

voice;

[atwar]

What need have you for such a thing?

voice;

[sorcerous]

It is a crutch, an easier conduit to a next dimension.

voice;

[atwar]

You think it might help us escape this place?

voice;

[sorcerous]

I made no such offer to you.

voice;

[atwar]

Enough, Loki. It would benefit us both to not be at odds with each other.

voice;locked

[fireofunknown]

Alright...alright, awesome. We got a deal then.

I'll get you more hand forged iron than you could shake a stick at if you make me something that can put a man under nice and deep.

voice;locked

[sorcerous]

I will send you the specifications; there will be two pieces, and they will act as doorways.

voice;

[sorcerous]

And so the Lady Sif waves her hand, and all odds turn to accords.

voice;

[atwar]

You twist my words.

voice;

[sorcerous]

It is my way.

voice;

[atwar]

[ She bites back an angry retort, her conversations with Wing and Kara still fresh in her mind. No answer from Heimdall, and only two Asgardians against some unknown threat. The flight from Jotunheim is fresh in her mind, too. ]

I am trying to meet you partway in this. I have already acknowledged I may have been too hasty in my accusations.

voice;

[sorcerous]

Help me to secure the pieces of the spell, and I will consider it.

voice;

[atwar]

Tell me what the spell is for.

voice;

[sorcerous]

Transportation, of course. I mean to open a path offworld.

voice;

[atwar]

[ That still isn't a guarantee he won't in some way prevent her from leaving. ]

Very well. What would you have me retrieve, and where would it be?

voice;

[sorcerous]

A thousand windfallen leaves.

Windfallen, not plucked or shaken. I will know the difference.

[timesbureaucrat]

"Bones that have seen the stars?" What does that mean? [Narvin doesn't like the sound of it whatever it is.]

And what sort of energy?

[sorcerous]

I would draw the most power from a moldered corpse, of a man who had lived on another world.

Fortunately, for time and for convenience, a literal interpretation will do.
