The unfortunate part of all this speculation was that they really had no idea what was actually going on. Loki felt like he was trying to put together a puzzle that was fully missing most of its pieces. All he could say for certain was that a relatively small number of people from a variety of backgrounds, timelines and worlds suddenly all found themselves alone on a train to a city they could not leave. How or why any of them were chosen seemed to be completely at random. Honestly, if Loki were going to pull a stunt like this, it was exactly what he would do. Keep them guessing. Give away no information and be as random as possible.
Loki had no idea what a media was, but he was too wrapped up in his own thought process to bother asking. He doesn’t really notice Emerick’s mood change either. Or at least, did not react to it. “No, so far I am seeing no reason as to why who was selected has been selected. Except that perhaps the randomness was a part of the selection process. The more randomly they do things, the hard it is for us to figure out. It is certainly a tactic I have seen before.” Despite what people had thought of him back home, Loki knew he was an adept leader and he had proven it, even if he had done it in a less than upfront way. Still, none of that gave him any insight into why any of this was happening now.
Humming thoughtfully, Loki nodded at that. “Yes, and there does seem to be quite a lot of information that does not seem to be out there. Whatever is going on here, they do not want us to know.” That was the truly concerning part. If whomever had done this required assistance, then surely telling them what they were helping with and why might be a better plan. The fact that it seemed much was being kept from them had Loki wondering if they weren’t supposed to go the same way previous inhabitants had.
Loki also had his ways of investigating, but mostly they were to do with manipulation. Investigating without having anyone to manipulate had him at a bit of a loss. And he really didn’t like that.
Absolutely no worries. Life happens to me all the time.
