It had been a mere coincidence that she had caught Tony's post. Right now, with Derry and Bill's nemesis so close, she spent most of her time in a different universe. But she had seen the post and recognised the name and then the voice. She had smiled. It would bring back a flicker of light into her friend's eyes. The smile quickly faded when she realised that this Tony did not seem to remember a thing his past away from his universe. Having heard some of the tales, she had a good idea of where to place him timewise. It wasn't too long after her own father had been murdered.

She had sent off a few quick messages, did a quick sweep of the living-room to hide any pictures - those questions could be asked later - and teleported to the university. The engineer had not been difficult to find. "Hi Tony, you look like hell." He did. Skinny, like he hadn't eaten in weeks. Life was escaping him five years before he was set to die.

Loki was 'clown stalking'... Well that was a mental image that made Tony's eyebrows flick up. "Yeah I could have done without thinking about that before I crashed" he replied. Well, it could have been worse.

"Just point me in the direction of somewhere quiet, preferably with a decent sized bed and one of those walk in showers" he said, gesturing with his hand. "Maybe once I sleep, all of this will really start to make sense" he added, dragging himself up to his feet. The wine and broth certainly had helped somewhat. He wasn't feeling anywhere near as weak as he had felt before but he was still exhausted and he still needed to sleep.

Frigga stood from her seat and stepped up beside him. "Oh, I'm afraid only time makes any of this make sense. But we do have quite a few rooms like you described, most of them are like that. Though they do have some luxurious, baths as well." But Tony was a grown man, he wouldn't need help drawing his own bath, would he?

She very gently placed her hand on his elbow. "And I don't point." She led. Like a hostess should. "We took over what was formerly a high end hotel from what I've gathered. I hope you don't mind staying on this level with Katherine and I." She gently guided him through the doors of the library, waving them open as they got close.

"A bath?" he asked with an expression and tone that said he'd be happy with that option. A nice chance to soak and relax his muscles. He smirked when she helped him along, looking back at Kat briefly and offering a brief smile, turning away again.

"I don't mind" he replied. "Why would I mind?" he asked afterwards. He wasn't really asking though, it was a rhetorical question. Honestly, he was just looking forward to getting a moment to himself. A moment to think things over and figure everything out for himself. What he was going to do next. How he was going to adjust.

The second he said it a little grin played over her lips. "I hope you aren't allergic to lavender. I find it helps the muscles ease into sleep." With a flick of her finger she had started filling the tub with hot water, so it would be ready as soon as they reached the door.

Frigga made a noncommittal sound in her throat. "I just wanted to make it seem like you had a choice. But it'll make it easier for me if you have any needs in the middle of the night, that you can't take care of on your own." They reached a door and she waved it open, for him. Before she took a step back and looked him up and down. He really was very thin. With a wave of her hand a pile of neatly folded bed clothes appeared in her hands. "These should tide you over for tonight, so you don't have to put on dirty ones. If you need anything else, don't hesitate to call out to me. I'll hear you, and I'll come." Her words were clearly sincere.

Katherine chuckled at her grandmother's cheekiness. With two boys as stubborn as her father and uncle, you needed to apply any skill in your repertoire. The young woman decided to stay behind. There was something that Tony should know, however, if he planned to stay the night.

"Oh, Tony, I have a bunch of animals living in the house. Just tell them 'stop' if they do something you don't want." She considered warning him exactly what kind of animals were living around them but decided that he would figure it out anyway. Spoilers would take away all the fun, wouldn't they?
