who: Ava, Loki (MCU) and Steve (616)
what: Going on a Mission
when: 10/20
where: SkyTram & The Reactor
warnings: Monster fighting? I'll add if anything comes up.

She tells both Loki and Steve to meet her by the gate.

It's near the SkyTram line she pieced back together which should make for a fast trip out to the reactor. She knows this isn't a coincidence, and isn't something that's going to be quiet and . Somehow the pulses of her powers while she was working the line must have tripped something? She wont know until she goes to investigate. Loki will make sure she doesn't actually blow anything up if something goes wrong; she's sure there are going to be monsters out that way, and a fight always kicks her heartrate up, makes her powers more unstable than she likes to admit to. Although she is doing better on that, well, she still needs work.

There are the emotive reasons she wanted Steve, about the fact that she likes him, that he knows what she can do, what she looks like when she does it and that's one less worry to deal with. And then there's the practical fact that if something goes wrong, it can't hurt to have someone actually on the Perimeter Guard on her side.

She reaches the gate not long after she gets off the phone with Steve, and takes a brief moment, trying to center her thoughts. The fallout from this did not look small, but she was trying to leave that for later. She was a survivor, whatever happened, she'd get through it.

[ Loki continually questions his presence (or for that matter, why he was requested in the first place. Not that he has any reason to be nervous. Except that he and Steve had never discussed anything about how they should be in public. Or . . . anything for that matter. Which is fine. But Loki always strays towards paranoia and doubt.

It'll be fine, he tells himself. He hasn't done anything wrong, not to his recent recollection. His armor appears and Loki adjusts his vambraces quietly. ]
