stopmjolnirtime | Verse One [Action/Voice]

[Action: Locked to Loki]

[One moment he had been standing amongst his brothers (and sister) in arms, Tesseract held in a shielded sheath meant to make the passage home simpler. Safer. The day was bright, the battle won, justice to be meted out by his father and while all was not entirely well with the world it was, for a moment, as close as it might come until his family was once again in the fold.

A twist of the wrist, a blinding flare of blue-

And he wakes bereft of his armor, without the Tesseract, and without his brother.]

Loki-

[He surges to his feet, stumbling, teeth grit and braced for battle. No other being could wrest magic in such a way to transport him somewhere aside from Asgaurd- for this is certainly not his home.]

LOKI! [A beat, and then-] Hammer?

[He extends his fist and his will, waiting for Mjolnir to fly to him- but he senses it not. He is without armor and he is unarmed. It makes for a frustrated, puzzled Thor that tromps through the woods, searching for the Tesseract, his brother, and his armor. At odd intervals he calls out either for his brother, or, in a fit of frustration, his hammer. Neither answer.]

[Action: Open]

[After that...enlightening and less than entertaining discussion with his brother, Thor resumes his wanderings, seeking out the village of which Loki spoke. He is as he was when he arrived, save that he is entirely devoid of clothing.

Thank you, brother.

He shall wander until he finds the village, and wander further still until he finds somewhere to clothe himself. When he finds not a single pair of trousers that would fit him left and a pinned note to a truly hideous gown. All the dresses or feminine clothing that might fit him yet remains.

Thank you so, so much, brother.

Later still he sits, wrapped in a toga formed of a bedsheet, picking at a long since emptied plate in Seventh Heaven]

Should any find trousers sufficient enough to clothe an Asgardian I would be most greateful to have them. I might be found at the Tavern of Seven Heavens, feasting on their hot dogs, which they have assured me are not actually made of hounds.

Hmm.... Then we should think of something else. Something that feels more like you.

[Her steps slow as she thinks about this.]

Does my name not suit? Thor has ever been what I am called.

[Immediately, and with great earnestness:] Oh, no, Thor is a very nice name. But having an nickname is fun, too.

I was once called Goldilocks or The Golden Bull for my hair and stubbornness, Dove or chicken.

Oh, Goldilocks is such a pretty name. [And she's completely sincere about that.] Did someone special give it to you?

My good friend, Fandral. He has ever picked upon me when his wit would suit; but it is done out of affection and I mind it not.

[Grune understands the idea of affectionate teasing--more than a few of her friends do that sort of thing all the time.]

Then that name must be very special to you.

I confess, I do miss hearing it now and then.

Hmm.... Well, I could call you Goldilocks. Would that be nice?

I- that would be most lovely my Lady. I am honored that you would wish to do so.

Oh, don't worry. I'm very happy to be able to do this for you...Goldilocks. [She gives a happy little giggle.]

[He simply does not have the heart to be anything but charmed by that name from this Lady.]

And I am equally glad for your attention, Lady Grune.

[She giggles again.]

I think we should do something nice together.

[Like maybe find him some trousers?]

When I've clothes of my own I would very much enjoy doing something nice with you. What is there that we might do in the village?

[At first, she's startled to hear he has no clothes of his own--what surprising news! --but then she's distracted.]

Oh, there are lots of things we could do. We could go for a walk in the woods or have something nice to eat together or look after the flowers in the flower shop or explore a new place together in the Battle Dome. [She smiles.] Or we could do all those things!

Tell me more of this Dome of Battle? I have read of it but find most everything quite curious.

It's such a wonderful place. You can visit all kinds of places with your friends. You can even go flying!

[The joys of having an airship captain as one of your closest friends.]

Truly? How is it that this place can take you anywhere you wish to go?

Oh, you just tell it where you want to go and it will make the place just for you.

You will have to show this to me in detail some day, Lady Grune.

Why don't we go as soon as we find you something nice to wear?

[Why put off time with a new friend?]

That sounds most ideal! I look forward to our meeting in person and to this trip.

I do, too! I can't wait!

[...And then her steps begin to slow. Now where has he gone?]

My lady, are you lost?

[She has been walking for some time...]

Oh, no, I'm not lost.

[Pause.]

I don't think.
