Video; thunderer [Thor 3 Spoilers]

[worldsaway]

[You can tell from the moment Thor's face appears on camera, he's been through hell and back. His hair is almost entirely buzzed down, save for the tufts on top, with markings shaved into the sides. His eye is covered by a black patch, indicating an injury that he isn't happy to talk about.]

I've made some changes. [Bluntly, as if he consented to any of this.]

What else.. Some things have happened at home that may be of interest to some of you. [He hums, considering.] Odin is dead. I have another sister? Her name is Hela. Mjolnir is destroyed. Banner is alive. [He feels a little guilty revealing that one, but he thinks someone deserves to know.] I fought the Hulk. I won. I met a real, live Valkyrie- And Asgard is.. [A people, not a place, but..] The realm has been destroyed. My people are seeking refuge, I suppose I understand now what displacement feels like.

I have the remains of Asgard in a ship, floating through space. If a portal could open for them, that would be extremely useful to me right now. I'm a king with no land or people, now. Very poetic. [Does he seem terse? He's kind of tense.


And then Loki comes barging in, looking very much the same and carrying a large parchment. He glances at the recording with a frown. He places the map of Earth on the wall, pinning it with a single dagger.]

Must you reveal everything? Put that away, I have work for you.

[divulsion]

Normally I might argue a case for Earth's suitability but it may be difficult to find a welcome there in light of the recent climate. You might talk to Thor about the other five realms, or here.

[And if things go terribly on Earth she may find herself asking Thor whether he'd like a teammate as a subject of his kingdom.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ He shrugs. ]

Or I'll find ourselves an island and put up a nice strong illusion over it.

[divulsion]

What purpose would the illusion provide?

[She can think of a few reasons, hypothetically, but she wants to hear it from him.]

[dothelokimotion]

Hiding us from humanity. From there, we can rebuild in peace.

[ Amazon Asgard Island 2.0 ]

[divulsion]

And once you've rebuilt? Will you leave the illusion as it stands?

[dothelokimotion]

That is up to the king.

[ And not Loki's decision to make, though it would be his preference. ]

[divulsion]

[How strange it is to hear this from Loki. Not just to refer to Thor as the King, but that the decision is in his hands. Perhaps even as if he means to abide by that decision...]

If there is something I can do to help your people...I've already mentioned it once before but the offer stands.

[dothelokimotion]

[ More or less. Loki will still undermine Thor if he felt it was necessary. Loki is his brother, not his subject.

But he's playing a part right now. ]

Duly noted.
