DECEMBER 6TH | VIDEO | UN: LOKI

[selfimage]

[ While the jailbreak ends and everyone goes back to their lives as fugitives, three (four, including another one on another important mission) gods have put it upon themselves to have a kidnapping. There's the familiar face of Michel, placed unceremoniously upright on a stump, a paper bag over his head supporting a cheesy looking inked smiley. Loki, stepping back like she's adjusting a camera, waves a hand toward him in a long, lackadaisical motion. Let no one say that Loki didn't have a flair for dramatics. ]

We've got it in the bag, or so the mortals say. Ah—shall we do introductions?

Everyone! I present the leader of the Order of the Chimera himself, Mister Michel, straight from the slammer. With circumstances as they are, we thought it best that he didn't make a further mess of things. On the more unfortunate side, that makes all of us super double traitors, both to the crown and the Order ... [ jazz hands!!! ] To the least, the history books will name us resourceful ones. ... you know, if they don't erase of us entirely. It has to be something about the job description ...

[ She's not alone, both Thor and Ahad stand behind her, the darkly cloaked Thunderer with his arms folded and Ahad fingering a cigarillo. Loki straightens the lapels of her jacket and gives a long glance back at the two of them. ]

He's been kind of enough to answer a few of our questions, but it's been—ah, less than enlightening.

[ Which is when Thor move forward, arms loosening though his gaze remains hard on Michel. Or at least, his paper bag. ]

He speaks of his gods as if in conference with them. If they find the schism between peoples here unnatural then have them present a solution that is not blotting out the sun and throwing the realm under their care into chaos. [ A growl rumbles in the back of his throat as he paces to one side. ] He could not send a message, as he said, unless he were first a messenger. I would meet with these gods, if they live elsewhere than his excuses.

[ And likely demand they guide their people if things are so dire. Or introduce their faces to Mjolnir, at this rate, instead of letting one of a pair of brothers lapse into magic-fueled madness … not that Thor is personally touched by any of this, no. ]

[ Meanwhile, Ahad simply sighs, remaining in his position in the background. There's one further practical consideration, which he means to address. ]

If there are any useful questions from the rest of you, we can attempt to pose them.


NOTE | There's Thor, Ahad and Loki. If you want one specifically, please let us know. Also, feel free to have seen them at the jailbreak! They got in > got Michel > teleported out, but the three of them were there briefly. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me!! xoxox!

Deal with the situation. We will have little choice but to do otherwise.

[ It's casually said, but then Ahad has never seen the point in broadcasting his plans to anyone listening. ]

[digophelia]

I only hope that doesn't result in other innocent people, natives and colleagues alike, ending up in harm's way. As I said to your friend -- I only ask that you don't sink to the level of those who captured our colleagues. Capture can truly change an individual, and sometimes, not for the better.

[dailydouble]

We are neither wardens nor within the walls of a prison. His experience with us will be much improved, from his time among the humans.

[digophelia]

I hope so, sir. Forgive my brashness, but I've seen many things and many people held for care, for the "better" of things, and it isn't the case. Please don't take my words as condemnation, only a reminder to be better.

[dailydouble]

Better than what? Those who you have encountered in the past?

[digophelia]

Yes, in a way, but it's more than that. Better, as in, the life they've led before. There are plenty of people who are uprooted from what they know because others believe them to be dysfunctional and in need of care. What happens then is that they make the lives of those individuals worse than the lives they lead before. All because they really do believe what they do is right and just.

The king truly believed these people to be traitors and they were left in deplorable conditions. My only wish is that no matter what happens, that you do not result to their levels. I'm sure that you'll treat him like any other man and not leave him squalor, like our allies and friends.

[dailydouble]

Believing what you do is right and just is for the young, not one so disillusioned as I am. If we wished to harm the man, there would be little reason to show him to all of you.

We do not plan to keep him indefinitely.

[digophelia]

That is all I need to hear, in all instances.

[ She drops her gaze, pausing, before adding quietly- ]

Thank you, sir.
