Video: Fifth Trick

[doeswhathewants]

[The video kicks on and Loki is sitting cross legged on a roof, view of buildings in the background behind him, the NV is propped up so the view is at an angle. The hood of his zip front sweatshirt pulled over his face, casting a shadow. Green eyes fairly glow from under the shade of that hood. He's smiling and it's just a bit sharp, a bit smug as he carefully plucks up and eats a blue M&M from a bowl of entirely blue M&M's, a can of Redbull held loosely in his right hand.]

Blizzard.

Rather inconvenient. [The smile grows more sly.] For some people, anyway.

For others, well, perhaps it is better that some of us are on the straight and narrow. [A grinning pause] Mostly.

[He pops another blue M&M into his mouth, chewing silently while he considers]

Boring, boring, boring. The walls are closing in. You know what happens then? Some real fun. Not yet, but soon. You'll know when it starts.

Oh, nobody suspicious.

[Pause]

I'm Xellos the Mysterious Priest!

[doeswhathewants]

Mysterious.

You realize that sounds suspicious to begin with.

[that_is_asecret]

I think most of what you said sounds pretty suspicious as well.

[He totally realizes it, its why he says it]

[doeswhathewants]

Does not. It sounds fun.

[that_is_asecret]

I'm sure it will be delightfully fun, you are the god of fun are you not?

[doeswhathewants]

Precisely.

And what is it you do, Xellos the Mysterious Priest?

[that_is_asecret]

That...

[He looks contemplative for a moment]

Is a secret!

[He puts his finger to his mouth, like he is shushing someone]

[doeswhathewants]

What isn't a secret?

[that_is_asecret]

Well, I'm new to this city.

[doeswhathewants]

Too obvious.

Something more personal.

[that_is_asecret]

[Strange guy]

You certainly are curious. I'll indulge you a little though, I enjoy heights.

[doeswhathewants]

Can you fly?

[that_is_asecret]

Well, I can levitate.

[He could also fly]

[doeswhathewants]

I suppose that counts.

A bit.

But levitation is easy.

[that_is_asecret]

[He rubs the back of his head and laughs a bit]

So what can you do?

[doeswhathewants]

I can levitate as well.

And walk between the worlds.

[that_is_asecret]

Interesting, how many worlds are in your universe?

[doeswhathewants]

Nine. And yours?

[that_is_asecret]

Four that are known. Travel is discouraged between the worlds.

[Everyone has jobs in their own worlds]

[doeswhathewants]

Why on earth would it be discouraged? If a person has the ability to do something, ought they not do it?

[that_is_asecret]

Well, each world has its own sort of pantheon. They prefer to keep themselves seperate from one another.

[doeswhathewants]

Reasonable enough. But so much less conducive to fun.

What do you do for fun?

[that_is_asecret]

The usual, observing amusing events, a few tricks here and there, thats basically it.

[Causing misery and despair, and frustration, that one is his favourite]

[doeswhathewants]

That's hardly descriptive. Be more detailed.

[that_is_asecret]

Mmmmmm, I think not. At least until you've told me some more about yourself.
