HWD: August
Thor is still trying to keep up his end of the Avengers, and he replies to Daneel's questions about Arkham and if there are security measures being taken.
The month starts with a bang, er. Literally. Thor gets sexy feedback through the connection with Tony and seeks his own distraction-- Elle. Together they blow out some lights. While Tony isn't having sex with Bruce, he's working on a robot with Handy to send into the library. It records a ghost-face and the playback proves bad for Tony's heart. Thor shows up to roundly abuse everyone and give Tony a drink.
Tony is also working on comm towers for outside the barrier, and asks Thor to help him set them up and then deliver the good news to the Black Ops team... only Iron Man makes an, as per usual, loud entrance. Which means they have to fight off a Shaggoth. Always a party. But now they have long-distrace radios, which Phil hands out to the team when they're all back inside the barrier.
Well, always a party until everyone gets turned into kids. Thor remains regular-sized and he's not that big a fan, so he keeps to himself. Or tries. Tony gets himself stuck in a tree with a broken arm and Thor helps him down and then takes him to a pint-sized angel to get healed.
Just as with the children-syndrome, Thor also manages to not be affected by the deadly strep throat being passed around the campus. His friends are not so lucky, however. Tony dies and Thor and Loki take the body to the morgue. It's the first real conversation they've had in Arkham and while that's good, those revelations-- on top of Stark's death-- push Thor over certain edges. He goes to town on the barrier, to little ultimate avail, but Kenzi, the Cap, Donna Noble, Elle and even Loki himself all help with the catharsis.
Tony isn't the only victim of the virus-- Bruce also dies, but all is not lost for him because the Hulk remains. And remains. But really, even as Arkham loses Avengers, it is gaining a SHIELD agent, Maria Hill.
