oo1; video, seelie & unseelie

[liugan]

[ 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.

[It'll be worth it. He's like a shiny (and bloody) new toy.] Don't hurry. I am going nowhere.

[liugan]

[ well. Loki does like big shiny Austrian bloody new toys. ] I shall take my time, then.

[unclebob]

[He nods once, going to turn off the video. He pauses just before he does so.]

What is your name?

[The fact he even remembered to ask shows he's learning more about people.]

[liugan]

[ admittedly, he thought about using an alias, but it's not like there's anything he has to hide here. ]

Loki. Might I know yours?

[ if he has one. ]

[unclebob]

[Any reference to Norse mythology contained in the name goes completely over the Terminator's head. Skynet sent out its soldiers with basic information about humans, but fictional stories about gods wasn't included in the curriculum.]

Terminator. Or Angahtar. People here call me by both.

[liugan]

[ okay, Terminator is ... actually pretty cool but not quite that formal so. ]

I think I prefer Angahtar.

[unclebob]

[He gives a short nod.]

As you wish.

[liugan]

Until we meet then, Angahtar.

[ he's looking forward to that. ]
