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.]

It sounds like you've had to quite a difficult battle, but it's good to hear you came out victorious. [He can tell important things have been lost, and sadly that's part of the business.] Yeah, we're still at Selvin-9, which has been fitting for the holidays, to say the least. It's been nice to touch snow again.

[Or... pseudo-snow. Whatever.]

[A nod of understanding.] So the battle is over. I'm a bit jealous, I must admit, both times my team and I showed up here, it was in the middle of things.

It's not that bad - it tastes like marshmallows. Have you tried it or only heard about it?

So still an interruption, then. Atroma seems to like those.

[Saving the universe is a job that doesn't take vacations, man.]

I don't think anyone decided to cover a whole world with it on purpose. Snow just happens to taste like that here. [To be honest, he's seen weirder things.]
