VIDEO; UN:ODINSON

[deemed]

So we are to fight. [Odinson is freshly bathed, his hair tied back in a knot. There's a new light in his eyes at the promise of this. Killing robots is a task well-suited to him. This he can do.]

Being newly-come to this group, I know few of you, and few of you know me. I would know the skills and knowledge of those I will fight alongside. Or die alongside, if this enemy is truly so formidable. [The half-smile that follows indicates he doesn't quite believe that's a possibility.]

Myself, I am Odinson, of Asgardia, God of Thunder. [There's the slightest hesitation there, for anyone who'll notice such a thing. Something unsaid.] I have fought across the nine realms of my universe, and will fight here with hammer or blade or my fists until the enemy is routed or I am slain. If any wish to spar or learn to fight in the days before we are summoned to Oska, you have only to call on me.

Likewise, any tacticians or those with knowledge of Oska or the enemy, share your knowledge. We ought have some plan before we are shipped back. [Is that sarcasm???]

[ She shrugs. ]

Won't we be asked to, sooner or later? I will choose as much as I can.

[deemed]

I do not know. We have been brought here without our consent, and cannot be returned when we choose. While I trust ALASTAIR's motives to be true, their methods are still questionable.

[He has no answer.] I will do what I feel I must.

[scarletcast]

We agree on that.

[ She exhales slowly. With a small smile, ]

We should not get in each other's way.

[deemed]

You feel capable of defending yourself?

[He's confirming, not questioning. The Wanda Maximoff he knew would have had only slight trouble with an army of robots.]

[scarletcast]

I am.

[ She may not be well practiced, but even untrained she's a force to be reckoned with. ]

[deemed]

That is well.

[He sits his hands on his hips, challenging her.] Now, shall we test ourselves? Try those rocks again, but at me.

[scarletcast]

[ In reply, she sends a few hurtling towards him, spaced so he can't dodge them all. ]

shall we call it here?

[deemed]

[He doesn't try to dodge them all, instead meeting them with his fists.

It hurts, but the pain is good.


It has been a while since Odinson trained with someone who had powers like Wanda, but he catches up to speed quickly enough. It's a good training session.]
