[ The teleportation spell brings them to a chilly, but recognizable destination. Though it isn't exactly the same as the city that Natasha may recall, the Kremlin is impossible to misidentify, and that's precisely where Loki is headed.

Natasha's free will is returned to her the minute they arrive, leaving her slightly disoriented, and potentially questioning why she had even listened to his demands (pending a reasonable wisdom check). They touch down 500 yards from the front of the Kremlin. ]

[ There's nothing in the Kremlin that Natasha would find out of the ordinary. A series of armed guards litter the halls, as it is a government building that's currently occupied by top officials. She does manage to find the vodka that the President directed her to. No signs of particular unpleasantness. If anything, this Russia seems to be a kinder one than the one of the world she left. ]

[Grabbing a couple of bottles from a shelf, she's in and out pretty quickly -- and glad for the fact that everything looks to be in order. Walking back into the room, she sets the bottles on the floor by the table.]

What'd I miss? [She takes her seat again.]

Nothing of import, my dear.

[ That night, after further celebrating, they're invited to stay at the President's home as guests. The mansion is three stories, filled with elaborate artwork and intricate architecture from the baseboards to the winding staircases. Loki and Natasha are housed in the guest wing, in adjoining rooms.

When they retire, Loki strips off his battle armor in the darkness of his room. ]

[In her own room, Natasha goes for slipping off her dress that she's been in across a party, two countries, and causing a whole lot of trouble in a government building, and starts to lounge around now just in her strapless bra and panties. She isn't sure if she's ready to consider sleep or not yet, or if she should just stay up and see what happens tomorrow. One thing she is sure of, however, is that her feet are killing her and she regrets leaving her shoes at the party in India.]
