Thor had just been ready to prompt Loki about the frost when Loki managed to reign it in himself. He didn’t feel the need to be patronizing and most of the mortals seemed distinctly unaware of how much danger they were in. Loki’s colour evened out and he was busy looking at the other when he felt the change in air around him. Thor lifted a hand to catch what was thrown in his direction and, ignoring the protests of both the son of Coul and Fury (how odd these mortals named themselves) and lifted the cube towards his face.
He could feel the power immediately, feel it tug at him, and he blinked away whatever sudden temptation he had to bust the tesseract from it’s containment cube.
“I know this,” Thor said, grip alone not enough to even dent the container. “I have heard of this in tales told when I was much younger. Soul gems, my teacher called them. Six, total. Space, mind, soul, reality, time and power-- Is that correct? I remember this from my father’s vault, too. Space. The space gem.”
Oh this wasn’t good.
Tony cleared his throat, mostly because he didn’t understand the suddenly esoteric Thor, and came to stand by Rogers. “I hate to agree, but maybe we shouldn’t take our chances.” Even if he really wanted to take a look at that thing. Badly.
