VIDEO: @LOKIOFASGARD (with @beloved)
Well, hello!
[ it's Loki, decked out in his civvies, green hoodie and fingerless gloves, working his magitek like he's trying to take a selfie. behind him is the backdrop of the middle levels, dimly lit in the dreary evening. there's a flash of a half smile to Team Ophelia, and when he speaks again it's in a wistful, casual tone. ]
It seems that we've landed ourselves a doozy, hm? The poor souls in Rost are are ready for a little revolution, but haven't a solid plan for the rest. [ he makes vague, spread-finger gesture, and his expression says that he's excited about the prospect of an uprooting. ] But like every ready and willing revolution, there should—hm, well ... probably be some longer term changes following it, right?
It's not exactly in the mission specs, which is wringing out the corruption and all ... nor is solidity my specialty, buu-uu-ut!
[ the camera angle changes, as Ahad reaches into the frame and adjusts Loki's arm. they've managed to squish together so that they're both easily viewable, from Loki's magitek. ]
But it would be irresponsible, to leave without ensuring that they have a plan for for governance post-mission. While the ultimate solution should be left up to the people of Drakstaden, [ he says, as if this is a foregone conclusion that requires no debate, ] perhaps we could offer suggestions? What has been successful, in your own worlds?
[ Loki's head is half obscured by the video while he changes the angle to put a pair of wiggly rabbit ears behind Ahad's head. ] That means the suggestion box is open! Let's get a team effort, hm?
[ Note: there will be Loki & Ahad out! they might be nosy in eachother's threads. feel free to thread hop if that's a thing you wanna do!! we encourage it. ]

[ there's a little puff of a sigh. ]
There are ways to rig elections. Lots of ways.

[ there's a curious tone to his voice, despite. ]
Starting a discussion for something doesn't mean interrogation. There are a lot of us, we all have ideas, and keeping quiet about them does little for the mission.
We're gods, we don't govern mortals, though we've seen a lot of it.
Are there any other prefacing explanations that you'd like?
no subject
Interesting that you think asking a question is defensive.
Still haven't heard any ideas from you, though. You're among the mortals now, so join in.

[ there's a hint of a smile. ]
I'm more of a revolutionary, myself. I don't do stable things, I do chaos.

[ ??? ]
That's helpful.

[ a pause. ]
My suggestions will end in the extreme end of the spectrum. We know they've had an election, and that an election of one person hasn't worked out ... erm, well, as our situation does imply. Then the system needs some help, not the election.
...
Well, possibly.
no subject
Big 'if', though.
