It really was such a cluttered realm, quite unlike Asgard, its simplicity with its compact magicks and artifacts the size of Mjolnir that could do things even the largest industrial construction machines couldn't on Earth. He felt like destroying every worthless tool in there but he had already caused quite enough of a stir there and Stark didn't deserve any of the mess already created. It wasn't his fault this woman seemed as incompetent as Jane's bubbly but dim friend Darcy. If only Thor had had a mirror, he could see his own actions were not any more mature but his emotions, a volatile mixture of the right ones and wrong ones, were causing him to lose his fragile cool.<br/><br/>Leena's words were of no consolation at all, but Thor chalked it up to her appearing to speak before she thought, and didn't hold it against her despite the truth of her words being very irritating. But his anger faded to fear as he considered the worst-case scenario: What if Loki had already gotten to her? Heimdall had been informed of how special Jane was to him, and Thor had always instructed the gatekeeper of Asgard to watch over Jane, even when Thor was there on Earth. Heimdall hadn't spoken a word to Thor since his arrival one way or another-did that meant Loki, who could mask his presence, had indeed paid a visit to Jane, hiding himself and her from the watchful eyes of the Bifrost's guardian? It was all Thor could do not to simply crash through the window behind Leena and fly off in a desperate search, conjuring up storm clouds galore to get Jane's attention.<br/><br/>He winced when Leena called him a god, did she really believe that? Did everyone on Earth believe that, all because of Loki? Maybe everyone really did see him and Loki as the same, regardless of how different their intentions and beliefs. When Leena suggested Banner's help, Thor rolled his eyes, his impatience reaching its peak. Even he could have figured that out, but, much as it was begrudging for him to have to admit it, Banner alerting the other Avengers was more important at the moment.<strong>"I could have thought of that."</strong>he muttered.<strong>"I'll find him myself, thanks."</strong>he turned down her offer to help, the very limit of his restraint being stretched to prevent him from calling her 'useless' to her face. His agitation was being compounded by her flirtatious and childish behavior and he needed to separate himself from her before he really lost control. It seemed very appropriate to him that a man like Stark would hire a woman with that kind of personality. Now he knew how Sif must have felt, watching him become a buffoon before his exile to earth had taught him so many valuable lessons. Unfortunately he was starting to feel a bit like the Hulk now, barely able to restrain himself despite his inner conflict.<br/><br/>He cast Mjolnir forward and down the hall, listening intently for Banner's voice. Halting just outside where the scientist was talking into yet another phone, Thor silently entered the room and hoped not to interrupt. Banner was still talking to who Thor assumed must have been Stark himself, the one he expected to be most capable of reaching the rest of the team regardless of where on the planet they might have been. He folded his arms impatiently, closing the door to keep Leena out, he was through playing games with her and really didn't need to constantly be tempted to imagine her head on Jane's body. Or just her in the bare, still wet from the shower she had just taken. Thor gritted his teeth so hard it could have taken a chunk out of Mjolnir as he exhaled hard through his nostrils waiting for Banner to finish up the call. Hopefully he could leave everything else to Stark so he could help Thor with his search.
