FILTERED TO STEVE, NATASHA, FURY (616):

Probably talked about this already, but humor me. That cube that's been ripping people out of their worlds and dropping them here. Not just me, right? That thing looks a hell of a lot like the Cosmic Cube.

	They guy who runs the bar tells is correct, it used to be in Asgard doing the same, but most of the civvies probably wouldn't like that arrival gate. You got an idea on it, or just orienting yourself? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Just wondering if it's different here or if no one really knows what the thing can do. Doesn't sit right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

They got a bunch of scientists on it. But I don't think they know much on it or they'd have turned off the faucet.

As I understand, the Steve and Bucky here know the most about it. HYDRA had it during the war and Schmidt disappeared through it. Don't have a timeline of how it got here though.

Wasn't like OSS to hold onto to magic boxes. So I'd wager it didn't come with the place.

	Schmidt. Red Skull had his hands on it already? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't sound too surprised. They'd get their mitts on everything if we let em. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Just orienting. SHIELD's got to know it's a big fucking mess by now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Their definitely trying to keep their heads up. That incident with A.I.M. and the Mandarin last month where they threw out a blanket call to the folks in this tower. So I imagine they're aware that we're their lifesaver. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But we're not open books on this stuff. Sounds like blind trust. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sure we've got our weak points their ESPers have found out. But there seems to be a general concensus for keeping our knowledge on a need to know basis. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Works for me. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You mentioned this immediately last time. It doesn't, but it doesn't behave the same way, I'm told. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	soldierofwinter 2013-08-02 02:17 pm UTC (link)
	You believe that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	widowstings 2013-08-02 02:50 pm UTC (link)
	No, but I don't remember our cube zapping people from one dimension to another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Or being something Asgardian. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rumor has it that it was in Odin's treasure room so it could have been taken in war. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Could probably get some information from Sif. I'm posted guard on it next week, but off the books, she and I have an rapport. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	widowstings 2013-08-02 09:17 pm UTC (link)
	A rapport. Get the information then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll check if she's interested in talking. Steve, Bucky, you know this cube a bit better. Got any specific questions about it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	To her knowledge, what has it been used for? Historically, mythically, actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	soldierofwinter 2013-08-02 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	Definitely who was controlling it and when they had it. I don't buy that someone isn't calling the shots right now. Red Skull had it at one point, and it took him? Not a soothing thought. We know how he works. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've yet to see it do anything else. Granted, I don't have top clearance, but this seems to be the function of its "resting state," at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Right, doesn't mean it's not capable of what the ones back home were. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, it doesn't. All things considered, I wouldn't mind if it kept just doing this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't even remember the last time we caught a film, but I'm pretty sure it only happened because I nagged you into it. Talk about role reversal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know. Both, maybe. Or maybe it's something Natasha said, when she showed up in our world and I was worried about her. About it seeming... paternal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
