[Video] | Friday afternoon, Week 50

[Thor's back to bother everybody on the network! Or rather, a video one of his remote cameras is back to bother everybody, with Thor's voice in the background.]

I believe I have set this up correctly....

[The video is showing a forest, near the edge of the dead zone, if anyone recognizes that.]

Ah. I have seen something on this video feed. But it cannot make it go forward, now, to the correct time. And now I believe it is stuck, I cannot find the command to take this video off of the communicator. Many apologies, everyone. I will simply have to describe it from memory.

[Still playing forest. Yup.]

I have these cameras from Tony Stark, around the area where everything dies. It recorded something this morning, of one more of those bone demons squabbling with something I could not make out. They were smaller than the ones we fought. But then something... pulsed. And it killed the camera, and, I believe, the bone creatures. I went to investigate, but could find no trace.

What could do such a thing?

--aha, I found it!

[And the whole feed stops, instead of just the peaceful forest scene. Thor can manage some technology all right, but sometimes he's just a doofus with it. Sorry network peeps.]

I never knew things like that had already been seen before. We need to start comparing notes better. [Beat.] And by "we" I mean all of us, not just you and I. There are more than a few things I think could've been prevented, if only more of the right people were working together.

But I agree: these creatures need to be stopped, before they do more damage if at all possible. Know that if you plan on going after them at any point, you have my aid.

[loveshishammer]

If only I could. I do not know from whence they came, nor how or why. Though perhaps in my time when I do not work, I can search... I travel much faster than most.

[He looks thoughtful.]

They have been seen, yes, but it was in the far future, when the world, nay, the entire reality coil was coming to an end. I would have shared with you had I known they were in this time, as well. You have my apologies for that.

[girlworthfighting]

There's nothing to apologize for. I know if you'd been forewarned, you would have taken action. I'd like to think most of us would.

I wonder what it might mean for us though, that things around near this world's ending are apparently starting to appear now?

[loveshishammer]

There is also that countdown. Perhaps something we did has affected the timeline in such a way as to speed up this reality's death....

[He looks worried, about that, and possibly guilty, too. Not that it could've really been him... since he was in the future, and had no ability to affect the past and the timeline.]

[girlworthfighting]

It -- perhaps. [She has a similar introspective look herself, though she's more worried. Though her trip was to the past, she's certain she personally didn't do anything there that made much of a difference.]

But even if it were so, what could we do now? That would make any difference.

Maybe we're better off just worrying about things we probably can change. Like taking care of these creatures.

[loveshishammer]

[Thor shakes his head, acknowledging the validity in that.]

Aye, you speak the truth. Then that I shall do. I shall seek out these creatures, to the best of my ability. We did damage at least one of them very badly, while it was here. Perhaps it shall not be so difficult to destroy, if I find it again.

[girlworthfighting]

I hope so. And I wish you all the best.
