[ out in the Unseelie courtyard, surrounded by inky black thorn bushes (how appropriate,) Loki sits on the ground, rustling through the plants as delicately as possible. he seems amused enough, a small bundle of the plants already gathered in a cloth in his lap. ]

Atropa belladonna. Once known to be an effective anesthetic and even as a beauty aid, but now more commonly used as a deadly poison, able to render even the most mighty of warriors powerless. A useless, hallucinating, drooling pile on the ground.

Oft considered one of the primary tools of the witch. [ he laughs a little to himself. ] How fitting.



Tell me about yourselves, my new friends. Your worlds, your myths, your folklore. Your legends and your mysteries. I will share my own, in return.

Where I come from, there are nine known, documented realms. Nine worlds. The realms of the gods, the giants, the dying, and the dead among them. I have seen most all of them myself, and I must say, they hardly compare to the remarkable land I find myself in now. Very quaint.

I am sure there are others among you who agree, no? I can't be the only one who feels so very at home here.

Are we not from different worlds? I've my many titles, indeed, but I have my own given name among them. The customs are simply different where you come from.

[steeledskin]

[ different? certainly. but no less curious. or -- that was the retort she'd crafted in her mind. the one she could not say, because if he's honest and he is a god... ]

As you say, your majesty. How silly of me to overlook.

[ she holds her breath. ]

[liugan]

An honest mistake, I suppose. Not everyone is so used to world traveling and learning what is customary.

[steeledskin]

I hope to learn better, in future. [ so demure! so eager to please. ] And I think you, your majesty, for this first lesson.

[liugan]

[ well, he might keep this one around, if only to keep hearing her call him that. ] Until next time, then.
