Cast of Characters: Morrigan MacIntyre, Mary Jane Watson, Balder




Morrigan MacIntyre has posed:
Morrigan had visited the Triskelion with the intent to talk to Captain American last evening, but they got an emergency call while she was there and ended up going to a fight and a situation that she would have rather avoided. She was back state side now and had reached out to Balder through magical means. The location was a simple place and near the Triskelion.

She's seated at one of the boothes and squinting through a few things. Her phone is quietly reading some messages off while she sits there. Most of her wounds have healed, it's just the wound in her shoulder that is taking more concentration to power through. "Hope he doesn't bifrost through the roof or something." she mutters to herself as she settles her phone down.

Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson is entering over into Harry's. She's just gotten off her shift at the Triskelion, and has a little bit left over in her food budget from last year. So that means rather than eating in the cafeteria, that she's treating hereslf out to somewhere! So, that leads her to the rarely pursued Harry's Hideaway. The place has a bit of a reputation, accurate or not that has made her curious since she'd heard of it.

So she's settling in there and heading in when she happens to notice her fellow agent and wiggles a finger.

Balder has posed:
Leads, as they were, were not entirely prominent. Balder had been doing a bit of snooping, hoping to make connections with the Avengers of Midgard, and this mythcial SHIELD garrison. Over the last few days, he'd been exploring as well - learning a bit more about more modern attire and behaviors of the Midgardian people. To that end, he'd managed a bit of an appearance change. Dressed in a nice suit and wool coat, he steps into the bar.

Pausiung just in the entryway, the big man glances around to allow his eyes to adjust to the darkened interior. After a moment, he spots the doctor who had reached out to him. "Doctor Morrigan." Balder offers in greeting, striding towards where the woman was seated. "How do you fare, this day?"

Bifrost through the roof. Please. He has class.

Morrigan MacIntyre has posed:
Morrigan's just a consultant and currently blind, so she sadly does not see the finger wiggle from Mary Jane. She does know that someone else came in though and there's a nod in that direction politely. Then she hears the familiar-ish foot falls of the large man from Asgard and then his voice, "Your highness, I see that you've not ran afoul of anything." she chuckles to that.

"I'm alright. I wanted to ask if you knew anything about Servants of Malekith?" she asks him. "Also, I reached out to Captain Rogers and he's aware of you. I'll give you his number and you guys can get together and talk on your missing brother." she states. "Have you ran into others while you've been searching around?" she asks him.

Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson would move over then to take the lack of a wave-off as permission to come on over. So as she goes to glance up.. And up.. And up over at Balder. She would just stare over for the moment at him and then shrug and move to slide in.

Mary Jane would move to grumble, "They don't take well to stabbing." B ut actually getting enough leverage to stab them was rather difficult.

Balder has posed:
There's a wry grin from Balder, whether or not Morrigan can see it. "I have no concerns of running afoul of things on Midgard." Bravado? Overconfidence? Perhaps both. "Things are going well. I have adjusted my attire to blend in." Blend may be stretching it, but at least he's not displaying his sword and armor.

As Mary Jane moves over, he offers a nod to the other woman. "Friends then?" A winning smile is offered over. "I am Balder Odinson, I am pleased to meet you." The comment about stabbing is left for now - no need to bring up violence!

His eyes do round back to Morrigan. "Malekith? He is ... quite the enemy. Leader of the svartalfar." There's a bit of a frown at that. "Why do you ask?" The latter question is posed as he eases, carefully, into one of the seats. It groans in protest. "It will be good to speak with the Captain. So far, my questions have gone unanswered in relation to my brother."

Morrigan MacIntyre has posed:
Morrigan doesn't know the new voice and there's a bit of an eyebrow quirk, "Did you bring a friend?" she asks Balder with a smile. Because she assumes that's where the other came from! She gives a nod to that and then settles back into her seat. "Blending in." she states with finger quotes and a chuckle. "I apologize, my vision is currently on a hiatus. It's coming back slowly." she states.

She doesn't say anything else about it. "Doctor Morrigan MacIntyre." she offers. Then she gives a bit of a frown at Balder's words, "One of his servants killed 107 people in an abrupt way last evening and then decided that engaging a group of people in combat was a good way to finish off the day. I don't know what it was over though." she admits. "Hopefully you can touch base with Rogers shortly and see if anything else comes up with Thor." she nods to that.

Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson would nod over at Morrigan, wincing. Seh'd seen parts of the report. "It took a massive amount of.. Firepower put into it and that barely slowed it." She didn't know the assault team, but the fact it had (by SHIELD standards) multiple heavy hitters couldn't have been a good sign.

"Just one of them did that much damage.." Imagine if there had been more of one. Mary Jane could just shake her head. The Sonja part of her agreeing.

Balder has posed:
The details of the event from the other evening has a frown on Balder's face. "They have, in the past, had a sorcery. It would imbue their warriors with a fanaticsm and great power. They also have... rather vicious weapons that can create an isolated singularity." He shakes his head. "If they are here, on Midgard, it is a problem."

"I will certainly be glad to help deter and defeat the svartalfar. They are a problem across the Realms. Do you suspect that the Captain is already working with his comrades to defend against them?" His mind is a whir, trying to determine why the dark elves might be encroaching.

Nodding to Mary Jane, "Aye, they do that. If I recall correctly, they eventually will burn out, destroying themselves under the sheer power of their being. Regardless, in the time they are active, they can cause great havoc."

Morrigan MacIntyre has posed:
"It was annoying as all get out." Morrigan nods to that. "I think that we can safely say that it won't be the last time that we see them. I just hope they don't make a higher death toll where they go next." she frowns at that. "Agent Watson can probably give more details, I'd not read over the report and well..." she shakes her head.

Her phone talks of an incoming call from Mount Sinai and then she frowns, "Sorry, work call." she whispers as she scoots out of her seat and heads for the door to answer it.

Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson would nod at that, "So there has to be a more effective way of quickly taking them out. Particularly if a heavy hitter isn't available. If you can pass along any effective tactics or things they're weak to so we can have them on hand.." it would be useful.

Balder has posed:
The man thinks a moment on it. "I will offer what advice that I can. They are... a worthy foe. Our family has made war against them for centuries." He grumbles. "Asgardian steel works well. Magicks, if you have them." Balder comments. A nod to Morrigan as she steps off to answer a phone call. "You are?" He asks, turning to look at Mary Jane.
