[ when the feed opens up, it is to a small black cat with heterochromia (one eye brown, the other a bright gold). depending on where you live, he might even be a familiar black cat. ]

Hey. [ oh and he talks. ] Figured I should get this out of the way, since I'm.. here, I guess, for the time being. [ an ear flicks, and he settles, getting comfortable and crossing his paws. ] Anyway, I'm Alex, and I got here.. recently. [ alex fierro: he of the frustratingly vague and casually suspicious nature. ] Norse demigod here, so if one of you Asgardian lot feels some strange seidr on the air or whatever, hi, that's me.

[ he blinks mildly, head tilting as he considers the video feed. what else, what else.. oh! ]

Despite all evidence to the contrary, I'm not always a cat. .. Sometimes I'm a flamingo. Or a dragon. Also I'm genderfluid, so don't be a dick about it and I'll give you my pronouns. [ a significant pause. ] They're he/him today if you're wondering. That's it, thanks.

If you don't know by now, the bees can't help you.

[ Curious, he cocks a similar ear. ]

What would you consider cliche?

[garotted]

I don't always have time to focus on the romantic advantages of 2% versus skim.

[ his mother definitely would not have chosen a fox. every difference helps. ]

Snakes. [ for instance. ] Not that Jor's not great.

[ikols]

Snakes are okay. Jormungandr is another matter entirely, [ to say the least, he's worse than Fenris, ] but what is he like in your universe?

[garotted]

Not bad, honestly. Better than Fenris, anyway. He's never tried to kill me, he keeps to himself.. one of my more bearable brothers. I'd say as siblings go, he's up there in the top three.

[ikols]

And the others? I'm curious, you're one of the most impressive children I've met.

[garotted]

Now you’re flattering me. [ a thoughtful pause. ] Sleipnir’s my fave brother. His kids are pretty okay, too. Samirah’s my favorite sister. She’s a demigod like me, a valkyrie, and she’s actually the one that chose me when I died. Hel can fuck right off, and so can Fenris. Like.. I get it, I do, because they didn’t deserve the bullshit lot they wound up with, but they targeted my.. friend.

[ friend. yeah. ]

.. The rest of them are more or less as bad as Mom.

[ikols]

Your 'friend'?

[ What's with that juicy pause, huh. ]

[garotted]

[ squint. ]

It's. Complicated. And he's one of Frey's kids. [ and frey's kids fall hard. it scares him a little how strongly magnus feels for him, when he absolutely doesn't deserve it. ]

[ikols]

You'll have to tell me more when we meet up for coffee, sometime.

[ Give him all the juicy gossip!! ]
