Trying to Sort Things Out
Kristoff sent a message to SHIELD. Full Disclosure. Doom was not in Latveria, and the Doombot signals had apparently been hijacked.

Then he got to work trying to raise Atlantis on the communcations system. Even once a signal got through the general difficulties connections with Atlantis sometimes did, it was something of a wait for anyone of the techs on the other end to be willing to take a call coming from Doomstadt right now. Even then, it some work to get someone to take "Please put His Majesty or Her Highness through as soon as possible. No, this is not a trick, this is Kristoff Vernard of the Fantastic Four" seriously.

To Kassia. "Yes. Clearing things up with Atlantis was one of our first priorities once we arrived and discovered the situation. You were simply apparently faster than we. But now that we have a chance to straighten things out, it is of course imperative that we do not play into the enemy's hands, and instead focus on finding out who the enemy is. I can put you on the line with Marrina -- I am afraid Dr. Doom prefers other forms of communication signals to be a little unreliable in the general atmospheric charge near the castle."

To Vincent. "My own fault, brother. When I asked you to diffuse the situation, I should have specified it be done in an informative but unpatronizing manner." And a little softer, "Judging by the vambraces, phral, this is the Atlantean equivalent of calling out the Einherjar. Please stop trying to belittle her out of pride."

	Kassia continued to glare at Vincent for several moments before her expression softened ever so slightly for Kristoff. "I would like to speak to my sister, please." It was either that or punch Vincent and if Marrina was in fact on the line...she doubted Marrina would be okay with that course of action. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Vincent gives Kristoff a look of acknowledgment and then turns to Kassia. "Your highness, I offer my apologies for the confrontation, and, along with my brother, volunteer all our available resources towards resolving this situation." He bows slightly, crossing one arm across his chest.

On the outside anyway. On the inside he's got his arms folded and he's rolling his eyes as he says all that.

	Kristoff will take that to as close as a win with Vincent's diplomacy skills as he's going to get at the moment and hand over the communications link to Kassi. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes," Marrina replied. "Need you home. Right now, the Fantastic Four are our best lead for figuring out what's going on in the world right now... but we need to further secure our borders in case of another attack." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ok. I'll be back shortly." She handed the device back to Kristoff and thanked him. Then she looked at Vincent. "Next time," she said. It wasn't a threat. It was...vague. And then, if not stopped, she'd lead her army away from Doomstadt. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vincent raised an eyebrow. He knew threats. Threats were familiar to him. That was... something else. He gave her a parting bow. "I wish you a safe journey home, your highness." That right there was a totally mature and polite farewell. It's not like he was obligated to tell her she still had a chunk of oak tree limb in her hair. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
