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. ]

That's —

[if this were a tv show, it would be time to cut to the hanabira roundtable.]

— Yeah, I don't blame you for that.

[but he's not gonna say "well maybe just some of us should make the decision" on a highly trafficked network post because he's not literally insane. his moms raised him better than that.]

There's gotta be some way we can figure out what's best for the people by working with them, though.

Beyond it not being our place, the people of Drakstaden know their own needs better than we do.

We're not here to impose a solution, but suggestions may be welcome. [ Or not, but that isn't necessarily helpful right now. ]

Yeah, that's what I mean. The whole "purge the corrupt government" objective probably doesn't mean for us to make it happen with us sitting in the pilot's seat.

No, I doubt that it does. I would hope that everyone agrees that we're here as support, not to direct the future of this city.
