Tony just got here. I'm hesitant to drag him in immediately.
[He also would have one of the biggest egos to wrangle, it goes without saying.]
But he'd probably want to be involved. So there's that to consider.
[Which brings them to two other recent arrivals...]
Wanda also just recently arrived. I don't know what state she's or if she's ready to be dragged into the conversation, but if we need a hitter. [By which she means muscle, not a killer.] Not just her, but Danvers.
[A pause, because that's not a name that's come up before in their conversations. Not that she remembers.]
[ Her points are Natalia's concerns voiced, and she confirms that. ]
I agree, which is why I'd go with Kenney over Stark if ever that path needs treading. Danvers is absolutely someone we want around. I can't think of a time when she ever went dark.
[ Which leaves the Witch. ]
But Maximoff...I can't trust her. I have no idea what yours is capable of, or what she's done to your world, but the Wanda from my universe is dangerous and destructive. She once altered the reality of the entire universe because of a mental breakdown. She depowered mutants, and is one of the very few things that can stand a chance against the Phoenix Force.
[ Nat shakes her head, uncomfortable with the idea of bringing the chaotic witch into the fold. ]
She's definitely the most powerful of us. If he hadn't already had five of the infinity stones, she would have been able to defeat Thanos on her own... But I think that's more than a little beyond her scope.
[At least in Natasha's experience.]
I trust her, but I can respect if that's not something we can put on the table at this point.
It'd still like to have someone with a little more power behind us. Thor is an option, but I'm not sure how much he trusts me at the moment.
I know you would. Mostly this is just a matter of needing to suck it up and face him.
[The fact she's fairly sure he'll be the bigger person if they talk a little more. Considering the number of times Loki has tried to kill him, Thor has to be fairly forgiving?]
I'll try to catch him during practice. He's been playing football here. Might as well take advantage of it.

Carol. I just assume you have a Captain Marvel.

[ Just because Talia's Scarlet Witch is unhinged doesn't necessarily mean Tasha's is.
LOL WandaVision]What's going on with Thor? Anything I can help with there?
[ She still hasn't conversed with this Thor, yet. Too many 'yets'. ]

[Murder tends to undermine trust a little.]
If we need him, though... we can probably count on him if push comes to shove.

I can act as a sounding board, if you need me to.

Well, at least I have one more weapon for the fight.
[ She retracts them and stands in place. ]
Let me know what the next phase is, what I need to do to get us there.

[For now, there's a lot of information swirling in the air, a lot of unknowns, a lot of intel still to gather.]
Hopefully it won't be too long before you get to try those out on Barbas.
