video + action.
Who: Thor + you
Broadcast: video, fleetwide
Action: the Blue Fish
When: now
video.
[The video opens on Thor. For those who've met him, it might take half a second to realise that, because his appearance has markedly changed. His long hair has been hacked short, and he's wearing an eyepatch over his right eye. It's weird. It doesn't even have a strap. Even his armor is different, much less flashy and looking worse for wear than the other silver set he'd had previously.
The look on his face is a bit harried, but he starts off with a long drawn out:]
So... [This just had to be his first address to the network, didn't it. Thanks, fate.] Hello. I had heard before that people in this place could fall asleep and end up back home for a while. It seems I now count myself among them. I have to say it's much more confusing to experience yourself. I think it's been only a few days here.
[He rubs at his chin a bit, looking off to the side in thought for a moment. This whole business on top of everything else makes him feel downright exhausted.]
Doesn't feel like it, though. [Thor returns his attention to the communicator, with a little shrug and less of a pensive look.] I'll add it to my list of grievances against the Atroma. I'm sure we'll have a library's worth to throw at them before the end.
If anything has happened in the last few days, I would be glad to hear it. If we haven't yet met, I am Thor, son of Odin, God of Thunder, and king of Asgard.
[It still sounds strange to him, though he trucks through it as gamely as he can.]
Rogers, Natasha, I need to talk to you both.
Oh-- [He smiles a bit, though it's a shade deadpan.] And happy new year.
action.
[Later, Thor sets about re-familiarising himself with the Blue Fish again, poking around the rooms and going through the kitchen cupboards. He could honestly use the distraction that pointless busy work can give, or conversation with anyone he happens to run into.]

No, I won't be needing one of those. I'm not going to hide it. It's just something to get used to.
[Thor huffs a laugh, scratching the back of his head.]
I wouldn't say it's a good story, but it's a long one.

In that case, either requires several drinks before ya start tellin' it to lull everyone 'nto listenin' to the full thing. The risk with that though be for those who be the cheaper dates may give out before ya reach the end of it. Difficult choice of what way to go with that then.
no subject
Even if I were not planning on it, it would take several drinks to get through anyway. And I can keep talking if someone passes out.
[Perfect solution.]
