[ when the feed cuts in, it is to the view of a young boy against a bright, clear blue sky, and a rolling horizon of hilly green grassiness; loki perches upon a wall along the outer border of highcrest, like a tiny green gargoyle leering over the path below, though not too terribly intimidating. he raises a gloved hand and waves. ]

Greetings, citizens!

What has it been - oh, some week or so since we have been brought here, to this strange, most pillowy place? I come to you now, to humbly ask for ..things! But let us make with the chase cutting, yes? I.. wonder if any of you have perhaps seen my brother, Thor - big, strapping god, beautiful hair like a lady, big hammer that he's very protective of. Sound familiar? Also, a girl - long dark hair, green eyes, about yea high - [ a vague hand gesture here ] - and very, very scary. Greenish magic, sour disposition. Terrifying smile.

If any of you know anything of there whereabouts, I would be most grateful.

Until then, come, we should all get to know one another, yes? Who knows just how long we will remain here together. I'll start! Hi, my name is Loki, previously of Asgardia, your friendly, charming god of mischief. I enjoy shaken milks, lengthy books, and engaging, vigorous conversation.

Now you go!

I haven't seen any of those people around, but I saw another Loki. Does that count?

[forcedreset]

Another Loki.. ?

[ wat. ]

[on_thin_ice]

He's taller, grumpier and has terrible hair.

[darkhourdear]

[god of mischief? That's interesting... the only other god(dess) Pharos knows of is Nyx, and this person doesn't seem like her at all.]


Hello. My name is Pharos. [...and he's not really sure what he likes, so he'll leave it there.] I'm sorry, I don't think I've seen any of those people.

[forcedreset]

[ oh, so he's not the only kidlet who's been brought here, eh? ]

Well met, Pharos! But ah, I'm sorry to hear it, you have my thanks nonetheless. If you hear of them, I trust you shall let me know, yes?

[darkhourdear]

[nope! and this one is the physical form of the death arcana SO WAY POWERFUL BITTIES?]

It's nice to meet you, too. If I see them, I'll let you know. It seems like a lot of people are looking for their friends.

[arach_nerd]

Aren't you a little short to be a God of Lies?

[forcedreset]

God of mischief, that is; I think perhaps you have a bit of webbing in your ears. But yes, I get that a lot!

[arach_nerd]

Mind telling me why, exactly? What the heck happened Loki?

Mami Tomoe. I enjoy drinking tea, baking, and sharing my baked goods with my friends.

[ He's so happy, she can't help but respond right back in the same manner. ]

I haven't met any of the people you're looking for, but if I do see them, I'll make sure to tell them you were looking for them. Being separated from your loved ones is difficult so I hope you're reunited as soon as possible.

[forcedreset]

Well met, Miss Mami; those sound to me like excellent and delicious hobbies, and I should very much like to become one of your friends, in that case.

[ because BROWNIES. ]

But ah, at any rate, it seems to me that they must not be here, for no one has seen them and they most assuredly .. stand out. You have my thanks, nonetheless.

[facaded]

It works everytime.

[ Hook line and sinker. ]

Then hopefully, if they do show up, you should be able to find them in no time. They do sound like interesting individuals.

[obfuskate]

[ Sorry, Loki, but he doesn't like the sound of 'god of mischief'. Asgard... Has he read a myth on that before, or is he just sensing deja vu for no reason? He can't be sure. ]

Until I see fit, call me Terios. It seems we enjoy similar things sans the mischief.

Also, it is 'milkshakes', not 'shaken milks'.

[ shaken milks really what are you on boy ]

[forcedreset]

[ that's okay, he doesn't like the sound of your pretentious text! they'll get along swimmingly! ]

How cranky you are, Mister Text! [ though he can absolutely appreciate the subtlety. loki is taking rather the .. opposite approach. obviously. ]

But ah, milk shakes, shaken milks, both are entirely delicious! [ WHAT ARE YOU THE WORD POLICE. ] Nonetheless, I assume you have not seen my friends.

[coruskate]

[ Cranky's being generous, truly. ]

Who wouldn't be on-guard with a title like that? Honestly.

As for your friends, I know nothing of them, nor do I care. It's you I have on my mind. [ How flattering! Except no, it isn't. He has an entirely different reason for being defensive and wary. ]

What do you intend to do here? Because you will sorely regret getting in my way if we happen to cross paths.

[twitchyswordhand]

A...god?

[...thinking 'bout it? Sounds legit on a number of levels ranging from Loki being that damn good at causing mischief (you know, like a simple boast, "I AM A GOD") to actually being a deity because within the span of a few years his life has gotten very weird so he's open to things, see current setting as an example.]

Wow. [Okay, so the 'wow' is less 'by the gods!' and more the wow you'd say if someone idly mentioned that they were a master at some obscure skill and proved that point.] You didn't mention that part.

Re: video;

[forcedreset]

Ah.

[ oh it's you, mister tapioca bowls guy! ]

Well, it wasn't terribly important at the time! But I am playing at introductions now, I suppose, so it seems a thing I should mention.

[What a strange way of speaking this man has...and claiming to be a god? Even with all that has transpired over this past week, he has a hard time believing it...

[Still, he can't help being curious...]

You claim to be a god?

[forcedreset]

[ more anonymous text! the people here are very secretive, aren't they? loki can appreciate this.

hopefully this guy isn't as cranky as the last. ]

Very unfortunately, yes! Less claiming, more being, but there it is.

beautiful hari like a lady

you sure you don't mean that you lost your sister

[forcedreset]

[ PFFT. ]

I am quite sure! He is quite large and muscly and manly, I assure you. Aside from his hair. It is very pretty.

[hisoldtricks]

[Prepare to be scrutinized.]

Now this is an interesting conundrum.

[If not for a familiarity, he would outright proclaim imposter.]

[audio]

[forcedreset]

[ oh.

hm.

there is no face attached, but something about this voice.. it's enough to send a shiver down his spine. loki cocks a brow. ]

Ah. And how is that, mister silvervoice?

[wasp_stings]

Woah, woah, woah! Did you just say you're Thor's brother?

[Okay the last time she saw Loki, he was decidedly NOT a child. So color her confused.]

[forcedreset]

[ yeah he's kind of used to this.. ! ]

I am! The one and only! -- well, not entirely, Thor and I have quite a few brothers -- but you understand me.
