first escape

[VIDEO - public]

[When the feed clicks on, there's what appears to be a raccoon staring at the screen, teeth bared and lips pulled back into what might be a vicious smile, if smiling was a thing raccoons were capable of. He's dressed in what can only be called a jumpsuit, made of red fabric and dark leather, and if the utter chaos that can be seen behind him is any indication, he's not exactly thrilled to be there.

When he speaks, however, there's no trace of that, only sharp humor and the kind of arrogance that says this is only a setback. Temporary.]


Two joints in two days? I'm flattered, really, wasting all that time and money on little ol' me. Sorry about that last one, but if you look in the depths of your measly breeder hearts it was a cakewalk and you know it.

So who are you, Nova or Kree? Not that it matters. We're all screwed either way, right?


[SPAM]

[They'd given him a communicator, and honestly that was all he needed to know about the place. They were soft, they were stupid. He'd be out of here in no time, and never mind Ronnan and his stupid giant hammer. If the Galaxy was doomed he didn't want to be anywhere near the center of it, and okay, so what was the point, he knew that, but survival instinct was strong.

First order of business after seeing what bit on the network was seeing what he had to work with, including the comm. Depending on how it worked, what kind it was, he could use it to hack or blow something up or at least zap something, but when he pulled it apart it exploded, showering him in confetti and multicolored string and Styrofoam pellets. What the hell...?

So much for that plan. Whatever, he'd figure out something else. Had to be plenty of patsies to work, every place had at least one.

He ventured outside the cell after that, roamed the halls he found on the other side, and it was way nicer than anyplace he'd been before, way too cushy for a real prison, but he could work that too.

He worked his way into the ductwork, easy enough with his size and claws, peeked a head out wherever he found a grate; other cells, communal bathrooms, a gym, a library... A few wouldn't open, so he scratched and clawed and pulled and cursed at them, eventually moving on when they didn't give. Had to find a tool for it, he'd come up with something. Come back to it.

He found the deck, climbed the railing to stare at the stars, try to pick out where in the universe they were. If he could figure out where he could maybe figure out a way off, somebody to contact, something to take advantage of. He found the mess eventually, ventured in when he finally got hungry enough, walked across the floor like he owned the place, like he wasn't two feet tall (and he knew that was being generous). Like he was somebody not to be messed with.]

Honestly? I didn't expect you to have a name at all. Or to talk. Raccoons don't do that where I come from.

[She keeps a wary eye on the critter as he climbs up. She's not going to shoot him again. She could probably claim ignorance for the first time but now she knows he's an inmate, she can't shoot him for no good reason. She's going to keep her guard up however, just in case he gives her a reason.]

Much as I'd like to, I can't exactly argue that point. I'm still trying to understand it all myself. It's true, though. You're going to meet all kinds of people from all kinds of places. And one of them might be able to provide a more compelling explanation.

Pretty sure - but not completely sure. I wouldn't give up so easily, if I were you. Sounds like there's an awful lot at stake.

[He laughs a little, at the idea of being called "babies," but... maybe Rocket is right.] Yeah - but thankfully, it was only practically.

I'd like to think we'll be better prepared, the next time.

[He doesn't know for sure, but he knows now that the team they have can be a team. And that every one of them is willing to do what it takes to stop another threat like this.]

I'm okay with there not being a next time, though. At least they're gonna have to get there the hard way, if they want to come back.

[Loki does trail along after him. He's frequently bored here and Rocket is someone new.]

No, you have to imply it at least.

So what is your name?

A black one.

[ And a smartass one, too. ]

Not surprising, since I've never heard of Kree or Nova.

[Wow, okay, now it's coming closer... and sitting next to him. What... is...

And then it speaks, and Connor looks like he maybe doesn't know how to process this information.]


You... can speak? [Which is a dumb question, and he realises that pretty quickly, shaking his head. He probably shouldn't be surprised, given everything else they've encountered on the Barge.] Are you a spirit or something else?

You did not. I was talking about myself.

I am Loki.
