Summary
"Grace, question?” Rocky says from his tunnel.
“Yeah?” I peek my head up, wiping nonexistent dust off my pants. The storage compartment was almost completely sterile, but I needed something to do with my hands.
“All okay, question?” There’s a slight quiver in the notes of his voice that I’ve come to recognize as hesitance.
“Of course, buddy.” I laugh disbelievingly, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Ryland finds Yao’s gun and he is perfectly normal about it, thank you very much. He’s only been stuck in the same environment eating the same meals everyday for a year now. He’s fine.

Summary
Loki rammed into the wall of a room he didn’t recognize, heaving for a sliver of air. He blinked furiously as he attempted to process the blurry scene before him.
The Avengers stared back at him, open mouthed like a sea of fish. You could’ve heard a pin drop with how suffocating the silence was. Whatever conversation they were in had come to an immediate stop at the sight of him.
“…I’ll take it I should be dead?"
or Loki time slips and encounters the avengers (which unfortunately means he encounters a certain someone he's been trying very hard not to think about)
