Needless to say the last month for the God of Thunder has been surprisingly fun. After stopping some random crime around the city, finally feeling that glory burning through him again. Even if it was against petty thugs with guns, the lame-asses. After that he got to tour Stark Tech’s headquarters where Tony Stark gave him a smart phone and HD TV which he still hasn’t bothered to plug in since he can’t get cable and doesn’t have anything to hook up to it. The phone was cool though, how many people can say they have a billionaire CEO on their contact list.

There was the things about Loki. The two haven’t seen one another that often, Loki’s been busy with SHIELD which Thor completely understood. They had gone out for drinks a time or two. Loki getting a surprise in how refined Thor’s tastes in alcohol have become as of late. Still as nice as those nights were, Thor could still sense Loki’s hesitation. Even with the events that had caused them both to feel like they would never see one another again, Loki still doesn’t seem comfortable around Thor. He hoped his little brother can forgive himself soon, what had happened has already become long since history. He was ready to move on now, and he wanted Loki to join him.

Though that brought him to the here and now. Having Mjolnir back was one thing, but now Thor didn’t really know what to do with the whole window of opportunity at his feet. He kept quiet at his home in Montana for the most part. Just trying to decide what to do and where to go. Periodically returning to New York where he looked into possible places to live there. Since it did feel like that might be a good next step. Seeing as how all the fun stuff was going on there, and Montana didn’t exactly have many threats to it besides wild animals.

The cloaking systems in the plane let them touch down outside the house without so much as a rattling window, albeit if the God of Thunder took to watching the grass he would have notice it move with the air being pushed out from the engines in VTOL/Flight mode. Coulson stood at the ramp as it lowered, in the strange way with cloaking technology anyone outside would now be able to see the interior of the plane but would still be unable to view the exterior. It was all very Sci-Fi, and he loved every moment off it. Standing at the bottom of the ramp he straightened his suit as Dugan and Masters came up, Dugan sorting his hat and Masters adjusting his holster. Coulson just turned to them and flashed them a smile. "Guys, it's a welcome wagon. Sit back, relax. Enjoy the plane. I'll call you if I need anything." They glanced at eachother. "If it makes you feel any better I'll make it an order." He walked away to hear their grumbling, they had his best interests at heart but sometimes the single welcoming face was better than a friendly face and a couple of goons. Even if they were welcoming a supposed God of nigh indestructible nature and with unknown destructive capabilities. That said Fury was trusting Loki and Loki trusted Thor, that and he hadn't beaten up any billionaires recently so he had that running for him.

He walked upto the door, straightening his tie as he did one last time before he raised his arm to the door and knocked. "Mr uh, Odinson? My names Phil Coulson, I'm with S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm here to speak to you."

As Thor sat at his coach, wearing a simple shirt and jeans, Mjolnir in a strange coffee table display position. Glancing up he heard the knock on the door and for a moment wondered who was visiting him at the moment, considering the last time he had guests over it was a long lost brother. He started to entertain the thought it was his father Odin until he heard Coulson speak up.

Getting up with a faint grunt, Thor went to the door, seeing the plane behind him with Coulson’s incredibly hard to read face in front of him. SHIELD at the very least made for interesting set ups Thor had to admit. “Certainly...” Thor responded, not able to hide his slight confusion over the visit. “Please come in.” He got out of the way of Coulson, gesturing into his cabin. His voice still holding some of Thor's royal tones even if the hundred of years or so on Midgard had taken away his use of the royal we.

As Coulson helped himself inside. Thor went ahead and left the door open as he followed Coulson. “I have to admit I was wondering when all of you were going to come pay me a visit. Nice vehicle by the way, does it come in blue?” Thor joked, arms folded as he wanted to hear what Coulson had to say.

"Standard issue black I'm afraid." Coulson retorted as he walked into the shack, it's not exactly what he was expecting from the house of a God, or Demi-God? He wasn't entirely sure which category Thor fell into, especially with the fact he was actually real. It was just one of the ways in which things had become increasingly complicated over the years, or rather months. They seemed to be going through a spell of increased activity of super powered individuals, such individuals had existed for years but it seemed that now they all seemed to be crawling out of the woodwork to either be a hero or a villain. He looked at the hammer on the table and had to admit he was tempted to give it a tug, he knew it probably wouldn't work but the temptation was there.

"All in all we've been letting your brother, since he agreed to work with us, handle you. Though at the end of the day there's no substitution for getting to know someone yourself. Besides, we don't have a good track record with people using that hammer, are you aware of the exploits of it's previous owner?"

Thor chuckled a little as he was told that Loki of all people was handling him in relations to SHIELD. Once thought of the man as his nemesis, now needing to keep him in check for a government agency. There was almost worrying irony to it all. One that made Thor hum quietly to himself in the back of his throat in slight worry.

'It is an impressive long term plan...'

'Hush you, have some faith in your sibling...'

As Coulson brought up Mjolnir and it's previous handler Thor gave pause. Glancing over at the hammer before strolling over and picking it up. Casually as it was a toy in his grasp. "So I've heard unfortunately..." Thor noted as he glanced down at the hammer in his hand. "Distressing news sadly. Tarene was a good woman when I knew her. Very strong resolve and loyalty. Though I'm worried if it's those very same qualities that made her commit her heinous acts". Thor had given Tarene's actions pause for thought. After looking back over at the ship Coulson came in on, before looking back at the SHIELD agent. "I can only guess I should be adding finding her into my schedule if this visit is any hint."

"I don't hint, Tarene could be a problem but no-ones pressing charges. We have a condition here, called PTSD. This stands for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Basically where you go through something that traumatic you can go through attacks of paranoia, distrust or even aggression. Let's just say we're as worried about her as we are for other people. As to whether or not you should be involved in going after her, I'll leave that entirely up to you. Though something you should be aware off, if you're going to jump in the ring as a new player is that beating up the bad guy doesn't instantly mean you've won, there are consequences to every victory." It seemed like an apt point to make, given what little of Thor’s history they had learned from Loki. Though it didn't help that Loki was being secretive about it himself, though with all the was going on in the world he couldn't blame him for that.

"No, I'm here to find out more about you. Firsthand, you realize we know virtually nothing about you? Do you appreciate how little that happens?" He shrugged. "I suppose not, but the thing is your an unknown entity. All we have to go on is some CCTV footage from the local town and your recent heroics in New York. Other than that all we know is what we've been told by Loki and Tarene, though it's hard to go on that information considering the fact that both of them thought that you were killed in the destruction of your home. So why don't you fill in some of the blanks for me? Then we'll see how we can help each other."

Thor was fairly amused by how little the almighty SHIELD knew about him, it was surprising in some ways. Mostly how long he had been on Midgard he figured that would have something that showed him being somewhere doing something. It was comforting though in a way to know how well he had covered his tracks up to this point. "Well first off I do understand what you're trying to suggest about Tarene. Not to sound boisterous or anything but I've been alive on this realm than a lot of your family tree." Thor made clear hoping that wasn't some kind of accomplishment to be loud about.

As he took a seat in an adjacent seat near the SHIELD agent. Thor took pause in trying to figure out how to summarize thousands of years into a nice condensed format. "Well I'm not sure how open your schedule is for the full story. As that would certainly take quite a bit of time." Thor joked with a grin. "In all seriousness I'm not sure how much Loki has told you about the realm of Asgard. It is indeed as the Norse have written in many ways, some of it a bit fabricated. Essentially I was the son of Odin, the ruler of the lands. Loki became my adopted younger brother when his father was slain. Loki became bitter over time as he was never treated fairly because of his heritage and being an outsider."

"It all came to a very violent head when he started the destruction of Asgard. I... I had fought him but I couldn't bring myself to finish him. Soon I had to escape Asgard as it was bursting into flames around me." Thor paused, a small lump in his throat swelling as the memories of the day started to swirl violently in his mind. "Many of the people were looking to me for guidance out. I didn't want to let them down but... I had to choose between saving them and being killed or saving myself." Thor slouched down, his hands cupped over his mouth for a moment as he needed to try and fight through the self loathing and pain he started to feel. "I was suppose to be the hero but I couldn't do it. I was a fool, too scared to actually see the story through."

Needing a deep breath, his fingers shaking ever so gently. Thor finally just let himself back back into his own seat. "I spent the last... I don't even know how long its been anymore. Just going from place to place on this realm. Taking up various odd jobs, trying to survive." Thor paused, sliding a hand through his hair as he finally was able to stop dwelling on the past. "Never really told anyone about that before..." Thor said, realizing the circumstances. "That was actually kind of nice to finally get that off my chest."

Wiping a tear away Thor paused one last time, "Sorry if I got a bit over dramatic there. Its not exactly a happy story. Plus this isn't a therapy session. I suppose though that's about as good a summary as I could provide. Honestly I was sure Loki was long gone, and Tarene I had no idea what had ever happened to her. So I was just as caught off guard as either of them, or you and SHIELD for that matter...."

Coulson kept a straight face throughout the exchange. He had been honest, or at least as honest that Coulson would ever know. It wasn't exactly an easy topic to talk about, so he'd trust it at face value. "The important thing is that you've spent long enough atoning for your sins and reflecting on them. Your past doesn't define you, it just paves the path for who you're going to be." Coulson looked at his watch as he stood up straightening his suit. "I'm afraid, I'm a busy man and have other things to do I'm afraid, though I'm sure we'll meet again at some point or other." He began walking towards the door when he threw a cellphone towards Thor.

"That's got Tarene’s last known location, I'm not saying you should hunt her down but she's obviously in pain. Maybe it's best if a friendly face has a talk with her before she gets herself in more trouble, hm?" With that he turned and walked out the door, and straight into the back of the waiting jet. The cargo ramp closed, so the entire plane was now invisible as he tapped his earpiece "Takes us away Agent May."

Although he wasn't sure about the source of the words, hearing them did give Thor some resolve as he watched Coulson start to leave. Only to be toss ANOTHER phone that apparently had the last known location for Tarene. Weren't these things like hundreds of dollars? Why did he now have two of them? Fiddling with the phone, awkwardly jabbing at the phone like it owed him money. All the while grumbling about how "This tech stuff you Midgardians made makes no sense!".

Finally he pulled up Tarene's last known location. A ship yard in New York City, near a ship that was leaving for Wales. Thor stared at the information. Wondering what exactly she was doing. Still it didn't detract him from the thought Coulson slipped into his mind. Seeing an old friend, giving them something assuring and comforting when they still didn't have something familiar around them. Thor could certainly do worst then provide someone comfort.

“Ugh... yeah you’re welcome...”  Tony muttered to himself as Sam gave him a glare.  He hated the guy so much now, it wasn’t even a question anymore.  Still Steve seemed like he was giving into what would seem like a very hard pill to swallow for anyone.  Strangely even maybe taking it in stride which felt very... off.  When Steve looked to Tony all Tony could do was awkwardly scratch his head.  “Well the name is Tony Stark but uh... if I actually say I’m Howard Stark’s grandson, is that going to make this whole situation more awkward?”  He meekly asked aloud.  Not really sure either of them could have a good answer.

Suddenly though, before anyone could or would answer Tony.  An AIM agent came in quickly reminding Tony how the situation is dire to say the least.  Only when Tony had his helmet slip back on Steve had already grabbed his old shield, and launched it at the guy knocking him out before catching it again.  Needless to say, Tony had a strange moment of turning into a fanboy for the guy.  Because that was seriously one of the coolest things he had seen in a while.  “Oh my God you’re already like top three coolest people I know...”  Tony exclaimed to Steve, powerful words coming from Tony Stark admittedly.  Only for reality to need to get back into his brain.  “Hold on,”  Quickly Tony voiced in commands to contact SHIELD.  “SHIELD this is Tony Stark, we uh... Captain America is alive and here... no I mean like the older one!  The Steve Rogers one!  Seriously!  We need back up and an escape vehicle NOW!”
