video; @sif (Thor 3 spoilers)

[fiercestwarrior]

[ Sif is... not overly used to public speaking, unless you count rousing yells to fire soldiers up for battle, or perhaps the occasional drunken rant about something or other. Hence she looks more than a little stiff on camera, unsure how to address a crowd of unknown size that she can't even see. ]

Greetings, I am Lady Sif of Asgard.

[ Regardless of what happened to her home, that is how she will always refer to herself. ]

I am a member of the Perimeter Guard, and I am currently in need of sparring partners. Those of you who know what it means to be an asgardian will know what that says about my physique and how it might compare to your own abilities.

To those of you not familiar, suffice it to say that my people live for a long time, and I have spent most of my years training for battle. It requires a great deal of force to harm me, though blades will fare better than blunt instruments. As for my strength, it is quite considerable, though I could not say what that would mean in relative terms.

If you think yourself up to the challenge, I would be grateful if you would make yourself known.

Thank you.

[ And Loki soaks up the fond replies like a greedy sponge. ]

I expect several shining verses at the very least, enough to bore Thor to tears.

This hurts me with how cute it is

[fiercestwarrior]

He would be a poor victim, he would just pretend to like it even if we sang for a fortnight.

stabs myself in the heart

[ikols]

That's ... unfortunately true. [ There is a bright side, however, ] His optimism serves him well.

cries all over you

[fiercestwarrior]

Most of the time.

[ In Sif's opinion it also makes him walk right into really bad ideas. ]

[ikols]

[ That ekes out a tired, breathy laughs. ]

It serves as the shield he refuses to carry, buoying him up.

[fiercestwarrior]

And shutting things out.

[ She got really used to being brushed off with a smile while the Bifrost was under repair and he was pining for Jane and Midgard. ]

[ikols]

His optimism has done you so great a wrong as that?

[fiercestwarrior]

It is not a matter to discuss where all may hear of it.

[ikols]

Ah, I see.

[fiercestwarrior]

You must tell me of your asgard sometime. And yourself.

[ She wants to learn about the differences between the universes, and she would like to get a better grip on this Loki who doesn't seem to harbour any ill feeling toward her at all. ]
