eleventh bite | anon text (shocker!)

[redhourglass]

welcome back and congratulations.

[ grudgingly, if a text can be grudging.

she's not a battle type of person; but that one was a big one and everyone had fought well, if not a bit desperately. even she'd been in the thick of it and that's not even technically her area of expertise. if she couldn't gather intel here, she might as well fight as a soldier, regardless of her distaste.

there's been something on her mind, however. something else than her usual 'everyone be prepared' and 'something bad is coming'. it's a bit closer to home; a bit more related to her life in asgard and a history back home that she'd rather forget.

there is a long pause in the text message before it continues, appearing on the bracelets. ]

i've been speaking to you for six months under this moniker.
the time is coming for you to know me. but not yet.

today, i have a question for you. answer honestly.

is it morally reprehensible to use a power that means invading someone's privacy? even in the service of what may be considered good?

Why ask such things? To what purpose?

anon text.

[ oh, it's the second half of wonder twins. yo. ]

if you look at a problem for too long it becomes hard to see what is actually going on

i need different perspectives

Will you need your peace of mind more after?

[redhourglass]

if i had peace of mind to start with i'd be more concerned

[subecho]

Every man has peace of mind. Some have merely not known it in too long the while.

[redhourglass]

we don't know what will happen after

or if there will even be an 'after'

it's the sort of thing that if we lose, it's all over

[subecho]

Have you ever known such threats to hold true?

[redhourglass]

i've never let it get this far

[subecho]

When all is at danger, I have never known it to be a matter of only one man's letting.

[redhourglass]

that doesn't mean i should be holding back

[subecho]

It might mean I want for details.

[redhourglass]

soon

you'll understand soon
