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. ]

Mhm. We'd be foolish if we thought this would all fix itself after we come in and depose whoever's in charge. I understand not wanting to think ahead, knowing something has to change, but.. it won't last, and without something to unite everyone, they might end up worse than they were before.

[ and she wasn't sure she could handle making things worse. ]

We should see what it is Rost really wants. What they want to change, and how they would change it.

Yeah, definitely. If we could get everyone on Rost's side ... a minority is easy to ignore and potentially wipe out, but everyone on the lower levels? It'd be real hard to stop that. We figure out what Rost wants, and then help them broadcast it out to everyone else, maybe that'd be something. Especially if there was a face to it. Someone they could all rally behind.

I dunno, this is a lot. I'm just throwing stuff at the wall here.

No, it's good. I think this is the only way we're going to come up with something.. Let's call it 'troubleshooting'.

[ fits the locale. if only they had a user manual. ]

Definitely. I think this troubleshooting is going better than the "troubleshooting" we had on the last mission. It was ... rough. Maybe keeping these things on the magitek is a smart idea.
