She walked out of the airship. There was now a crowd outside of it, Asgardians were huddled on the grass in different groups. Some were sitting, some laying on the grass, and the rest slowly walking.

Thor and the rest of the people she just met were standing in a group. As Layla neared them Hulk sat down loudly and hit his hands to the ground. "I miss my bathtub!"

"Don't worry, we'll get you one," Thor said to him. Hulk grunted in response and looked away. "Alright, what's our first plan of action?" Val asked when Layla stopped next to him.

All of them turned to Thor. Based on Val's words when she showed her to a room, Thor had just become the king of Asgard. Layla couldn't help but wonder whether Loki was okay with that, he had always wanted the throne and if he'd act on it. She needed to keep an eye on him.

"I don't know about anyone, but, I'd really like to eat now," Korg said, raising his hand up. "That's a good idea, people must be hungry," Heimdall continued. "Hulk hungry!"

Thor nodded. "Excellent idea! We shall have a feast on our safe journey to Midgard!" he cheered. Layla gave out a small smile. At least he was happy. He didn't yet know what had happened in his absence.

She frowned as she realized that she had to tell him. He was bound to ask. She couldn't give him much but it was her who was responsible for that. Tony had said so.

"If you haven't noticed yet, brother, it's cold. Now, me, I wouldn't have much problem. Can't say the same for the others," Loki said with a small curve on his lips, his eyes dragging to Layla toward the end.

She was wearing the stuffiest thing she had with her, but still, she'd probably be frozen in a couple of hours.

"That's okay. Just do your witchy thing and light up fires," Thor retorted. "For the thousandth time, I'm not a witch. Besides, it's cryokinesis, it's for ice, not fire," Loki shot back.

Thor crossed his arms. "Can't you conjure fire? I've known you to do that," he said and turned to Heimdall. "You do remember the time he lit the curtains on fire on the grand room when we weren't allowed to go to Vanaheim with Father?"

Loki had a smirk on his face. "Yes. You two were not even ten at the time," Heimdall said. "Ha, great!" Thor opened up his arms, "So you can do it brother, cmon now,"

Val touched Layla's arm. "Come help me get the Midgardian food while they handle the fire. I could use your little trick," Layla nodded and started following her. She supposed she could fill Thor in when they were eating. She went inside the airship once again.

Layla walked back out with Val next to her and the boxes floating behind them. The first thing she saw was the number of fires throughout the field. There were probably over twenty bonfire-like fires. People were huddled around it.

She lowered the boxes on the ground as the others made their way toward them. "What's in them?" Loki asked. She gave him a look. "We'll see," she replied and flicked her wrist to get the boxes to open.

"Huh," she said as she showed it to the group, "They sent you sandwiches,"

Loki furrowed his brows. "Sandwiches? This is the great help Midgardians sent? Sandwiches?" he asked. "Food's food!" Hulk said, yanking Loki out of the way and getting closer to Layla. She handed him a bunch of them, hoping it would be enough for him.

"I'll go get everyone," Heimdall murmured and walked away. Layla gave a look to Val and reached down to grab some more. As Asgardians started to gather around and form a line she started to hand it to them.

When it finally seemed like everyone got it, she got two for herself. Everyone had either gotten two or three so she thought it'd be fine. There were still plenty left and if she knew from previous experiences, Thor would be eating a lot of them.
