[Tony had finally handed over the suit he was modifying for her, and though Pepper wasn't certain that meant it was actually ready, she decided to take it out for a test run - more accurately, a test flight

[Thor has been out flying and spots the suit before he hears the words being said. Landing nearby enough, he gives her a nod in greeting and looks up to the sky.]

It does seem ominous, does it not?

[notbuiltforthis]

[Imagine that. She flips up her faceplate as she turns to him.]

Have you seen anything like it before?

[...He has been around longer than the rest of them.]

[flipsalltables]

It reminds me of many tales I have been told, but I cannot say for certain.

[Thor watches the sky for a moment longer.] I do not think it is a weather formation. It is not a storm.

[notbuiltforthis]

Even a general idea may help, Thor.

[She'll take his word on that second part. He would know storms, after all, wouldn't he?]

[flipsalltables]

There is a serpent known as Jörmungandr. He is the Midgard Serpent. He is so large his body wraps about the world and he holds his tail in his mouth. If he lets go, then so all realms will end.

[He frowns a little, looking up once more, and he can't help feeling a little bit sick and the thought.] It seems far too familiar a tale for what is happening in Mandalus.

[notbuiltforthis]

...Let's hope his jaw doesn't get sore.

[So encouraging, Thor.]

[flipsalltables]

[He chuckles lightly.] Let us hope, yes. I do not think this is Jörmungandr, but the story seems greatly similar. I am sure we will win, though, because we have a stronger force now.

[notbuiltforthis]

You would be one of the best judge's of that, I suppose.

[flipsalltables]

If it is a storm, however, it is not normal nor natural, and we should be very concerned.

[notbuiltforthis]

That's what I was afraid of.

[flipsalltables]

For now, we merely prepare for what may come, and hope for the best.

[notbuiltforthis]

[Of course.]

...We've made it this far. It will take a lot to stop us.

[flipsalltables]

Exactly. All will be well, in the end.

[notbuiltforthis]

[...And hopefully they'll all make it there.

She shrugs.]

Now that you've seen me in this, Tony will probably ask your opinion.

[flipsalltables]

If you wish to tell him first, then rest assured I think it looks right on you. Have you considered a name? Humans seem to think having powers or technology like this requires having an alias, do you not?

[notbuiltforthis]

He'll still come to you for ... "actual feedback". [She lets out an indulgent sigh.]

...I'm sure the press would just go with Iron Woman. [If tabloids even existed here.]
