when banner comes marching home again... OPEN

[pursuitofcappiness]

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.

There was more of an annoyed sigh coming from Clint before moving over to the robot. He wasn't gifted with super-strength or anything of the like. But give him something to drag around and he'll yank it around. He didn't think they were too deep in the woods to at least try. Clint wasn't really looking forward to carting the robot back into town, but it was better than wasting their only magical resource they had down to their bare minimum at this point. He looked out for others, what could he say? Even if the other person was Loki and he couldn't very well say he was always looking out for Loki's well-being.

It sort of aggravated him.

"I'll help move it, can't be heavier than some things 've moved." Recently. Clint was pretty sure it couldn't be heavier than Loki was by any definition of the word. He supposed the robots could help Tony get in the air as someone formidable when it came to the people who'd captured them. But his mind was going to if Stark could figure out a way to trace them back to the people who were controlling them. If it had been something remote or programmed. He didn't know if Tony's mind had wandered to that. But his had certainly done so.

Sharon doesn't say it aloud, but her line of thinking is in keeping with Loki's. So long as they retreat, they should be left alone. And she'd never held out much hope that they would find Natasha or the others. And yet...

She turns toward the barrier for several seconds, her hands on her hips. The urge to keep going, to keep trying to escape... But no. It would be suicide at this point. She needs to be smart about this.

She turns back and hefts parts of one of the robots. "Conserve your energy, Loki. You've done... We're grateful for what you've done so far. Stark, you okay to help? We've got to walk... How far?" She looks to Loki to check the distance. The question is twofold. She isn't just curious for the walk back, she wants to know to gauge the distance for how far they have to go if they try to escape before they reach the barrier.

The last thing that Tony wants is for anyone to get hurt because they’re worried about the shit he needs to make himself useful. It’s not going to happen. He’s not going to let it happen.

“Save your energy,” he tells Loki, echoing Sharon as he hunkers down to get a grip on the robot in front of him. “We can drag it back.”

He looks at her, nods an affirmative to her question. “I’m fine. I can do this. You okay there, Barton?”

He’s not an invalid. And he is strong. Maybe not as strong as Steve or like the people who have been trained and conditioned for combat. But the muscles that he does have aren’t for show, and he’s not going to ask anyone to help him do what he refuses to do himself.
