What was that??

Ben’s eyes widened when he noticed lightning coming out of nowhere and energized a guy. No... Wait a second. “You’re Thor!” he said with great vigor in his voice. However the excitement was short lived. “Wait, why did you summon lightning? Is something going to happen?” He was suddenly very worried.

she’s been circling the area for quite a while now. maria wasn’t exactly sure how long she’s been doing it considering time was an apparently foreign concept here, but she’d estimate that she’s been doing it for hours now. none of her comms were working and she had no idea where the hell nick fury was and quite frankly, this whole thing was pissing her off. maria heard something behind her and in a flash, she had her handgun trained on the person, her jaws locked as she took in who it was. “nice try. now show your true figure.”

after all, natasha romanoff was dead.

he’s heard about stephen strange. he’s one of the best surgeons in new york but he disappeared then came back with a red cape like thor’s. harry’s not one to judge career choices by people and he doesn’t actually know strange on a personal level, but from stories he’s heard, the doctor hasn’t really lost his famed intelligence. “doctor,” he greeted, “is there any explanation to this? where are we?”

“ah, stephen. you’re looking well. not hit with this new problem, i hope?” from what he observed, quite a lot of them were affected by this new red sky. personally, reed himself went from flexible human being to immovable object and it was taking some getting used to. “what...are you holding?” if reed didn’t know any better, he’d think the sorcerer was holding a wand. unless... “you’ve been hit too, haven’t you? are you finally living your harry potter dreams?”

“ nice rejection. very clean.” //  ERIK LEHNSHERR & LORNA DANE

“if you’re so impressed, i can keep going.” lorna quipped back as she continued forward. maybe immediately walking away at the sight of him was a little dramatic – but the steel door that’d just suddenly swung open between them as she walked past a building absolutely was. to be fair, it wasn’t even entirely his fault this time. she just had a limit on how much she could handle at a single time. “alright, if i turn around and talk to you, are you going to start in on some kind of lecture? because my patience isn’t doing so well.” ( @mortalstrings​ )

( Closed Starter | Billy & Erik )

His eyes show up from the ground as someone cast a shadow over the spot he had been staring at for who knows how long. “Magneto.” The last person Billy expected to see in this cursed place was Erik Lehnsherr though he wasn’t that surprised when he thought about the past the other had. He would never wish anyone this fate despite how many wrong deeds they might have done. “To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?” The words came out as awkward as it sounded, enough to show how nervous and confused he felt about this situation.

closed starter for @mortalstrings - stephen strange

it’s not that rhodey doesn’t recognise him, of course. it’s hard to forget the man that brought all of their friends, their brothers in arms, back into the fight at just the right moment. stephen strange. some kinda wizard or something, from the bits and pieces rhodey’s heard. and it’s not even the magic that has him narrowing his eyes as the conversation continues.

no, it’s the questions.

incessant, endless questions about one man. tony. his best friend. a man who has just come back from the dead. for reasons that aren’t clear to any of them right now, really. “okay, before you shoot another six questions at me, let me ask you one.” rhodey says, cutting the man off before he can launch into another tirade of curiosity. “what’s got you so curious about tony?”

𝐥𝐨𝐤𝐢 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧. that was truly one of the more saddening things when it came to all of the events that had occurred to lead up to this moment right here, right now. they may act otherwise, but loki missed their brother. always would, they think to themselves. so when they come face to face with the man, they’re left speechless. “thor?” loki says, green eyes widening. “it’s me. i’m... i’m back,” they added. “alive, again. somehow. seems you can never quite get rid of me, huh? sorry for that. i’ve been told i can be a pain in the ass.”

@mortalstrings​ - jean & stephen

“it’s so... loud,” jean whispered to no one in particular. so many people were entering into place, and some clearly thought they were dead. “if this is the after life... it’s a strange one.”

she nearly jumped right out of her skin when she realised that someone had approached her. unlike everyone else here, she’d failed to pick up his presence at all, and when she turned to look at him, she found that his mind was tightly guarded. 

“a telepath?” she asked, looking at his attire. “are you a mutant?” hope laced her voice - perhaps here was someone who could finally show her how to tune out or tune down the volume of the world. or at least... someone who had answers.

on the other hand, it was entirely possible that he was also here for a fight. the villain-esque goatee sort of suggested it.

( @mortalstrings​ | erik lehnsherr )

well there was at least one good thing that came out of her rubber gun problem: erik lehnsherr couldn’t try and ruin her weapons. anytime s.h.i.e.l.d. weapons were ruined by anyone, especially when some pissant decides to deal with lehnsherr, it was a blow to their artillery and their budget. contrary to what trigger-happy agents in s.h.i.e.l.d. believe in, they were not running on unlimited budget. “lehnsherr. you’re looking younger than when i last saw you.”

( @mortalstrings​ | natasha romanoff )

harry narrowed his eyes at her in confusion, his head tilted to one side as he tried to figure out what’s happening. he probably shouldn’t be surprised about anything anymore, but the woman talked like she was part of the big sleep or something. “have you been hanging out with peter or something?” because that was the only explanation he could come up with. “you sound like those ladies from the old films.”

( @mortalstrings​ | stephen strange )

reed liked to think that he knew how to be diplomatic with how much he dealt with the other teams. sue, of course, had a better handle in dealing with people than he did, but he’d like to think he learned quite a lot from her. but he did like the banter with his contemporaries from time to time. “stephen,” he greeted the sorcerer, “just the man i was looking for. this place is, unfortunately, not my area of expertise.” magic, after all, was something reed hasn’t figured out yet. “how the hell are we even in this stone?”

[polyarchergod]

Moving into the town, Clint managed to catch a glimpse of familiar air. Heart nearly stopping in his chest. But she was... she was dead. How the hell was she here too? Feet picking up speed, Turning the corner, nearly running at this point. Hand reaching out and grabbing her shoulder, turning her around. “Tasha?” The name slipping off his lips in an airy breath. “How are you here? You...” Voice trailing off not wanting to say the word out loud. Maybe something happened. Maybe she wasn’t. She was safe.  @mortalstrings​

( Closed starter for Erik & Marcos ) @mortalstrings​​

Marcos hadn’t seen Erik in a long while. The last time they spoke was probably before he and Lorna broke up. He was hopeful the older man wasn’t one to hold grudges because he was as good as dead if he was still mad at him. He was about to turn in the other direction to avoid the awkward conversation but his eyes locked with his and he couldn’t bring himself to awkwardly walk away. He gave a friendly wink and waved his hand at Erik. The unnecessary wink definitely made the whole situation more awkward. He put his hands in his pockets and walked over to him. “Long time no see, hombre imán. ¿Cómo está usted?”

𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐧, peter nodded his head in agreement. “yeah, i definitely see what you mean. feels like there’s so much... area to cover. if that’s the right word? hope so.” he pursed his lips, his brows knitting together as he wrapped his arms around himself, resting his chin on the back of his hand. “i could use a nap,” he groaned out, laughing dryly. “what about you? i dunno what it is about this place that just makes me so exhausted, but...” he trailed off, shrugging his shoulders.

@mortalstrings​ - tony & natasha

“another day, another destiny,” tony said, flopping down to nat on the sand. “at least, i think it’s another day.” he shrugged. “i had a nap, anyway. and don’t think i didn’t catch you watching me. which, for the record, is creepy.”

he stared up at the sky overhead. “you know, do you ever wonder what happened to the others? not that i’m in a hurry to see them, but it’s kinda weird that it’s just ... the two of us.”
