Who: EVERYONE INTERESTED INCLUDING YOU **If you want, we can handwave that Steve contacted everyone about it over the network but I don't want to spam the comm.**
What: RESCUE PARTY
When: After whenever Lydia posted to the network that Bruce disappeared, Steve asked her to tell everyone interested in finding him to meet up at the fountain.Where: Fountain!

Steve's at the fountain, checking his wristwatch in case anyone calls, making ocassional rounds because he's anxiously waiting to leave. He's carrying his shield, which looks rather out of place with his civvies.

He was at home, so he brought a couple bike helmets and some small weapons for people to carry into the woods, just in case.

It's always like this. Why is it always like this?

When Tony leaves, Steve thinks it's time to start talking fast. "Sharon, Loki. I want you to follow Stark." He wanted that group to go in early, but not that early. He figures Loki might be good at finding where he is, and if the creatures are as dangerous as Sharon says, it might help to have him going with them. "I'll call you on the communicator so we can establish a path.

"It shouldn't take that long to check out the island, so we can meet up afterwards and take a second group into the woods. I guess I'm going off to the island by myself." On the bright side, he thinks at least that means he can catch up with the town group before they're done and then they can maybe start up in the woods up north.

That works. Either way would've worked, really; Loki is entirely equanimous, and so he sketches a very shallow bow.

"As the good Captain wishes," he responds with a perhaps surprising breeziness, turning on his heel.

"Come along, then... Sharon, was it? I don't believe we've been acquainted, though clearly you know me. If I were completely stupid I might even be surprised." If. And that there is quite enough by way of pleasantries, if the way he completely fails to slow his pace is any indication. Either she'll follow or she won't; it's no concern of his.

Bit of a shame it isn't supposed to be Rogers, though. Watching those two conflicting sources of stubbornness at work, following orders like a good soldier and not following Loki's orders like whatever passes for a good man within the predictably closed confines of his own head warring with one another until one or the other snaps. Curious to watch.

Yes, shame it won't happen, but amusing enough how quick the fellow is to get rid of him. There's some entertainment to glean from all of this already. Definitely not a wasted trip.
