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 subject
Because I didn't know that I had one. Neither of us did. Loki and I were always told I was the eldest.
[The firstborn. But that had been a lie.]
no subject
[ hidden away, he assumes. it would explain the mess that thor is describing, not to mention his injury. ]
how come she only showed up now?
no subject
Banished, to a realm she could not escape from as long as my father lived. [...] Father died a few days ago.
no subject
I'm sorry. I know he meant a lot. was it peaceful?
[ at the very least it might be the smallest of blessings. ]
no subject
I think so. He seemed ready for it, even if Loki and I were not.
[oh yeah, that. ]
Loki isn't dead though. He was pretending to be our father and ruling Asgard these past few years.
[Trouble indeed. ]
no subject
[ so much bad news. ]
between him and your sister, no wonder you look exhausted. what happened between you all?
no subject
[Which forms part of the 'what happened'. He leans back in his chair and collects his thoughts for a moment.]
As I said, Loki had been impersonating our father. He had sent our father to Earth, and I made Loki show me where he was when I came back to Asgard. Father was... nearly out of time, when we arrived. One of the last things he told us was about Hela, that she would be coming as soon as he died.
She escaped her confinement not long after and appeared on Earth where father had died. Hela immediately made it clear she would take the throne by force, as she considered it her right.
