《A Twist Of Marvel || Infinity War》15. The Future

"Do you perchance know where Surtur is?"
The question came out of nowhere, semi-blurted out by the brunette in the car as awkward silence ensued. Truth be told, Naomi hadn't considered that she would be sitting next to Thor for at least an hour, alone to boot. She had begun acclimating to his presence, the wonder of meeting the God of Thunder wearing off, leaving excitement to get to know him. Contrary to what Tony probably believed, Namoi wasn't crushing on Thor, though his brother was a slightly different case-
"I believe him to be banished in the realm of Muspelheim, why?" Thor cut off her increasingly embarrassing train of thought about his brother with his answer. Clearing her throat, Naomi brought herself back to the present situation, determined to not stare off into space whilst talking.
"It's part of the plan, since we need to stop Ragnarok and all that." She explained, toying with her phone as her eyes wandered about the car, unsure of where to look. Looking straight ahead seemed rude, however staring right at Thor was a little invasive and awkward. Giving up, she settled for a combination of the two, throwing occasional glances at the mountain of a man beside her.
"Ragnarok? You've seen the fall of Asgard?" Thor seemed to have no qualms about looking straight at her, and Naomi prayed she was getting over her blushing phase. Shifting her legs so she could face more towards him, Naomi studied the man for a second before she replied. Unwilling to stare previously, she hadn't realized how comical he looked. Thor hadn't changed out of his Asgardian armor yet- Naomi was definitely not going to ask him to change, not before she had even had a proper conversation with him. Mjolnir rested on the floor in front of him, between his splayed feet in the spacious leg room. However the car was clearly built for someone of Tony's stature- as in, short af, Naomi taunted in her mind, fully aware that she was an inch shorter than the man. Thor was forced to hunch over slightly, just enough to make it an awkward position.

"Yeah, it happened right before Infinity War." Naomi focused on keeping her voice casual, something she usually never had trouble with. Though these were not usual circumstances. "If I remember correctly, you've had visions of the, ah, fall of Asgard too?" She questioned, praying in the back of her mind that she hadn't stepped over a line with the inquiry.
"I have!" Thor, of course, was not offended by her knowledge of him, instead enthusiastic about her 'prophetic ability.' "I have seen Asgard on fire recently, in small bits and pieces. I was going to investigate when I was summoned by Heimdall." Thor opted by this point to slump in his seat rather than crouch, a strange mixture of formal battle attire and a lazy position. Naomi herself took it as a cue that she could relax her posture, though she kept her knees crossed- bobbing her foot out of habit.
"Well don't worry, everything should be fine once we put Odin back on the throne, though it wouldn't hurt to grab Surtur's crown along the way." Naomi nodded pursing her lips as she thought back to her and Tony's plan. Stopping Ragnarok wasn't integral to preventing Infinity War, but it was annoying and frustrating the plan- so as Tony so eloquently put it, they 'put a pin in it.' The demise of a planet could wait.
"Wonderful, another battle has been solved before it begun. Tell me, just how far does your knowledge go?" Thor questioned, pivoting his torso to face her. Sitting in the car wasn't making for the most comfortable conversation, that was for sure.
"Well, pretty much all the major battles that you, or any of the Avengers have faced. We already went over some of the other heroes you haven't met yet- I've seen their battles too."Naomi chewed on her lip, giving a small 'oh' or surprise when she glanced at Thor to see him anticipating more. "Well, ah, for you, the first time we saw you was when you were banished to Earth, and the events surrounding that. The second time we saw you- at least in a solo film- was all the stuff with the convergence and the dark elves." A hint of a smile grew on her face, remembering her favorite movies without having to plan for defense against Thanos. "The next solo film of yours is Ragnarok, but, that's no longer happening." She finished, drawing out a breath.

Thor's face was infinitely curious, whether it was because he was really interested or really bored from the car ride, Naomi couldn't say for sure. But all that mattered was that he was listening to her spill the fact that she watched his largest battles in what could only be described in a stalker-like fashion- and not get offended. It was astonishing to her that neither Tony nor Thor had reacted negatively to her knowledge, though she knew her good luck probably would not last. Naomi had a feeling that heroes such as Natasha wouldn't take as kindly to her.
"And you are able to share these visions with others? Through footage?" Thor drew out the word 'footage,' only slightly unfamiliar with it. Naomi grinned and nodded, already thinking of what she could show him. The more meaningful scenes were out of the question, of course, but the comedy scenes from Ragnarok were entirely up for grabs in her mind.
"Wanna see the future?" Naomi smirked at Thor, her previous shyness dissipating as she moved into her new element of comfort. She had always known more about the Marvel universe than the average moviegoer- and now that knowledge was employed 24/7 for both entertainment and life-saving purposes. Showing Tony her close-up videos of some of his more embarrassing moments had been hilarious, at least to her.
"Are you sure you and Stark aren't related?" Thor questioned suddenly, throwing her off her new groove. Spending over 24 hours with the man had certainly heightened her sassiness and movie-quoting powers. However, as incorrect as the assumption was, she couldn't be offended by it. Being related to Tony would have been an honor, at least in Naomi's eyes.
"I'm afraid not. But I can tell you all about his adopted son Spiderman." Naomi's eyes glinted as she began pulling up video evidence of Tony and Peter's father-son relationship. Thor simply raised his eyebrows, his lips forming an 'o' as he leaned over to watch her phone screen.
"Stark adopted a spider?"
"Yes."
