FETTERED CRY [VIDEO]

[fotlenke]

[ Sigyn's frantic as she gets onto the network, and she looks harried and worried, inside the ship. She speaks quickly and with strain in her voice. ]

Loki Odinson is within Verdana. Do not harm him! He is not the Loki we know. He is an Other that has no connection to our Loki in deeds.

[ She puts her hands together in prayer with the phone between her hands. ] Prince Thor, wherever you may be upon the sea, Princess Sigyn requests to speak with you at once!



[ ooc: takes place after her scuffle with Loki aboard the ship. ]

Who's Loki Odinson?

[video]

[fotlenke]

Not this Other who is now within Verdana -- the one we speak of attempted to destroy Jotunnheim, and then attempted to conquer Midgard. He is a dangerous man, Briar.

[ And she could use a hug, okay? She's freaked out. ]

[video]

[growingwild]

[sadly, Briar can't really give any hugs through his scrying-mirror. And he's very, very confused]

But this man's not the same person, right? They just share the same name?

[video]

[fotlenke]

That is my deduction.

[Video]

[erranthero]

Slow down. Is there some sort of trouble?

[Kerra's eyebrow is raised, curiosity all over her face.]

[Video]

[fotlenke]

Aye, strange ma'am. I have startled the wrong suspect.

Re: [Video]

[erranthero]

Strange ma'am?

And suspect? You're investigating this...Loki...character?

[Voice]

[pepperspray]

I've been having some difficulty raising the ship expedition, so if you get through to Prince Thor let me know.

As for Loki... please forgive me if I sound suspicious, but given what the incarnation I'm familiar with did to my home, are you sure this one is safe?

[Voice]

[fotlenke]

Aye, Lady Pepper.

You and I are of the same worlds, Lady Pepper. This Other is frail, scared, and weak in his arsenal of sorcery. A poor attempt upon acting rude and imposing -- demanding, aye -- but he turned frightened at the threat of my dagger.

[Voice]

[pepperspray]

Frail, or frail-seeming? Again, please forgive my suspicion, but I know he's capable of altering his appearance significantly, and that he's also very capable of appearing weak to gain an advantage.

If he's using you...

[Pepper's eyes glint sharply. Sigyn is a constant source of bemusement, yes, but she has Views about people taking advantage of the trusting, and Loki's reputation precedes him.]

[video]

[knightoflight]

What has Loki done that you all dislike him so?

[Seriously. Wing met Loki--the first one. Loki was nothing but kind and helpful, if a bit prickly.]

[video]

[fotlenke]

Too many a transgression to list properly, Warrior Wing.

[video]

[knightoflight]

I knew someone--he was here briefly--who had also done horrible things. But he wasn't evil, just misguided, led astray by other's thinking.

I think maybe your Loki was the same, the one you all dislike.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

Who is this Loki Odinson of which you speak? Is he ally or enemy? And if the one that is here now is not the other, then what is his connection? But a man with the same name, or more?

[video]

[fotlenke]

Loki Odinson is enemy. A powerful, dangerous sorcerer who has killed before. The Loki -- the Other -- of Verdana is related by slight appearance and perhaps background. He is, however, significantly younger than the Loki we know of.

[video]

[girlworthfighting]

[Evil sorcerers that kill your friends are serious business. Mulan can totally appreciate this.]

How can that be? Is he a younger version of the same Loki?

[Voice]

[nodavinci]

Right. Because that's believable.

[Voice]

[fotlenke]

I have already interrogated him, Warrior Stark. His magic is weak and with ease, I outmatched him.

[Voice]

[nodavinci]

Yeah, I've seen that trick. Right before he killed a couple dozen people.

[Okay, so he might be a little bitter about the helicarrier incident. And attributing more deaths to Loki than Loki necessarily caused with his own hands rather than by proxy.]

[Video]

It seems someone is determined to see Ragnarok enact itself in miniature before our eyes.

[Gard appears...troubled is perhaps the best word for it.]

[Video]

[fotlenke]

Valkyrie. You are not to harm the boy. I have sworn by Yggdrasil to protect him.

[Video]

[chooser]

[Gard does flat irritation very, very well.]

Your oaths would not supercede my own.

Which is entirely irrelevant - if I intended to take up arms against this boy, I would have done so, not contacted you on this device. He is no friend of mine, but I do not see a great, dark power rising over this world.

[Which means he isn't Loki from her plane, which offers some wiggle room.]

[voice] Super late sorry but he would have said something

[arrowminded]

[His voice is flat and cold and very, very quiet.]

Where is he? Is he still in the ship?

[voice] it's okay!!

[fotlenke]

Nej. [ That's all she'll say in response. ]

[voice]

[arrowminded]

You know this is what he does, right? Tricks people? You can't trust him.
