Tenth Trick: Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

[The NV flicks on, propped up on a table, focused on Loki who sits cross legged on the floor, a baby sling across his chest. The sling is occupied by a lump that is invisible to most, save for a hot pink mohawk and a hot pink collar with a little silver hammer shaped tag dangling from it. The hellhound looks plump and happy to everyone who can see her.]

This- [He speaks with his head bent over the hellhound] -is Thora. Say hello, Thora-

[He helps her wave a faintly pink paw at the NV and she tries to nip his fingers in retaliation]

She's kind of the best hellhound ever. [In that condescending way only thirteen year old boys are capable of. And then suddenly serious, green fire in his eyes] And if anyone were to harm her, I would put their insides onto their outsides and join her in having a nibble. Just saying.

[And then that jovial demeanor returns again.] I've been learning much about the mortal world thanks to Google- the browser of webs. But so much information conflicts. I wish to know more. Midgard and humans are so different than what I always thought.

Thora, huh? [so... amused...] 'Least the hammer makes sense now.

[doeswhathewants]

She -ah reminds me of my brother.

[Considers] It isn't weird, is it? To name a hound after someone?

[shifting]

...Your brother's named Thor? Like the god?

Nah. Lots of people name pets and things after people they care about. Hell, when I owned a boat here I named it after someone from back home.

A hellhound? Its surprisingly cute! But then, hell and demons always get such a bad reputation. I would never hurt something so cuddly, not that I imagine you'd be worried about that anyway!

[Flonne's an archangel, being able to see something demonic is no big deal.]

I've found the human world to be very interesting as well! Humans aren't all as bad as I have been lead to believe. What sort of things have you learned about them so far? Maybe we can compare notes!

[doeswhathewants]

My brother is the god Thor.

Did you use it to try and escape via water? I am told most vessels are considered female, though I am as yet unsure why. Was it named for your mother? Or your wife?

Re: Video

[doeswhathewants]

You can see her? Most people cannot, I am told. Thus the reason for her collar and the pink mohawk, rather difficult to miss, even for a mortal.

Truly, you believe demons have a bad reputation? Some, perhaps. One cannot always help ones nature when things are blamed upon them for what they are. [Oh god, his life.]

Ah! Cellular phones and the Pad of I upon which one may watch movies. Mortals are far more accepting of things the Aesir consider strange or unnatural. Might I ask what you are, if not human?

[shifting]

...No, no, just a friend.

...

...Sorry, could you run that whole brother thing by me again?

[doeswhathewants]

You name important things after just friends? Oh well.

My brother is Thor, the God of Thunder.

[harriedosborn]

[ Sighs... ]

Well, that's pretty vague. What do you want to know more about?

Re: Video

[archangelflonne]

Oh, I thought I had already told you! I'm an archangel! Did..I forget to mention that before? It really isn't anything that special in a world like this, but it is still something I'm proud of. Not just every angel makes it this far!

[She puffs her chest out with pride.]

Personally I've found myself fond of human food, some of it at least. It was difficult to get pizza back in Celestia, and it was never delivered in 30 minutes or less either. And this place with all the shops, I think they call it a mall, its just wonderful! So many interesting things all together in one building. I can understand why its always so packed! Being able to get all the best blue-rays and dvds without having to worry about interdimensional shipping is also nice!

[video forever] I AM SO SORRY orz

[underdogged]

You've had your rabies shot, right, kid? [Rabies and tetanus and any other disease you might get from a creepy, invisible hell dog. Kaiji eyes the floating pink mohawk warily, wondering why this doesn't surprise him at all.] How big's she going to get anyway?

[ex_chocoboing98]

[Midgard...? Seriously what's with this kid and the names... Overlooks the threat, he's not interested in harming a dog.]

Information conflicts?

Re: Video

[doeswhathewants]

...I might have forgotten. Huh. Well, there seem to be a lot of angels in this place, at least.

Human food is rather wonderful. Especially the elixir of Red Bull. I am still waiting to see how much one must drink before one receives their wings. I suppose I could create a pair with magic, but that would defeat the purpose.

[doeswhathewants]

Everything, Harry.

What is a hipster and why do they wear scarves in warm weather? Why are humans so easily prejudiced against each other when they are all mortal anyway? How can a human be born in the wrong body and why do they switch genders? Do they have technology or magic to do that now? What is the difference between Chicago and New York pizza and why is one better? What is the point of baseball?

permavideo NEVER APOLOGIZE :3

[doeswhathewants]

Rabies? What is that?

[Genuinely puzzled, then brightens.] Not terribly large. Dog sized, I think. Hela's hound is the size of a house, perhaps this breed is a- ah- teacup version.

[doeswhathewants]

Yes! One website will say something is perfectly natural and another website will say that it is an abomination. Though, I am not entirely sure those who write about abominations know that of which they speak.

[ex_chocoboing98]

... Maybe they don't. What do they talk about exactly?

[doeswhathewants]

Hipsters. And penguins who enjoy relations with the same sex. Humans who can change genders. Goth people, though I am as yet unsure what being Goth entails since obviously they are not sacking Rome.

[ex_chocoboing98]

[...]

Most conflicts come from the fact people think differently. That's about it.

[doeswhathewants]

That is rather what I like about mortals. They think differently. At home, on Asgard, most people think rather alike.

[ex_chocoboing98]

And those who don't?

[doeswhathewants]

Are largely unwanted and considered bad.

[calm_tempest]

[Yup, she can see the hellhound. Lovely little creature, in her own way.]

What is it about mortals that you find the most different?

[ex_chocoboing98]

Though luck.

I don't think it is so different from the way... humans act.

[doeswhathewants]

Don't you?

Are you human?
