Thor was in the process of drawing a picture of Loki with a mustache while Sif talked. The piece of the honour guard, well that made sense. He'd thought about having a King's Guard, and Loki had mentioned it previously as something they'd have to rectify. After all, this flood business did show the weakness they had with protecting themselves.
As for the rest though...
"I feel you are confusing matters, Lady Sif," he began, sitting up straighter in his chair, a focused look on his face. If there was one thing Thor did know, whether he cared to admit it or not, was how to play politics. It wasn't his favourite thing, and he quite enjoyed swinging fists over discourse but the last few years had taught him the value in looking at all angles before jumping fully in. And this? This was dangerous ground. "I agree wholeheartedly with the protection of New Asgard through our own personal guard, and ensuring that all peoples here are treated fairly and respectfully. A small dungeon, for lack of better word, would suffice for those matters. As for the stronger foes, as you put it ... they are not of our concern. Let Midgard dispense judgement on their own. This is a realm that is tenuously balanced between multiple countries, religions, cultures and languages. It is not my place to hold an enemy that is sought after on a global scale, like this Candied woman we recently dealt with."
He put his hands on either side of his chair and tilted his head thoughtfully. "You mention the Avengers and SHIELD. They are excellent allies who have never abandoned us and I do not forsee that happening anytime. You are our liaison on Avengers, and both you and my brother have worked with SHIELD, so I am confident that we will be well taken care of by our allies. If it eases your mind though, we can discuss a warning system with Stark, a type of security so to speak, that will notify both entities if we require asistance but remember -- Asgard takes care of its own. We do not need to involve outsiders nor do we need to be involved with other realms. We do not need any further eyes on us. For the rest of the world, we are a simple fishing village. That suits our purposes. "
He raised his brows at his brother. "Do you had anything you wish to add?"
