I did have my eye before the coma, but it was my sister who stabbed it out, so I would not credit the Atroma with that.

[Even if they did have something to do with whatever changes his body went through here, he's not about to consider them in the same league as Hela. At least she was straightforward.]

I wouldn't say no. [He smiles a bit.] Though I have been getting some advice already. One boy suggested using a dart board to get used to it.

[privateeyed]

Yeah, but did she stab it out here? Seriously, that's fucked up. [...] Uh, and sorry your sister stabbed it out.

Dart board is . . . a pretty great idea, actually, shit. [damn, why didn't he get to use a dart board] Or - tossing shit into a basket or something. Or - something you can gradually make smaller.

[rebuildyourruins]

No, Hela isn't in this place, and she is dead. Thank you, though.

[Of all the things Hela wrecked, his eye is the least of his concerns.]

Yeah. I started with just bouncing a ball off the wall. The darts are much better though. You could probably find a board to buy here - I am sure I've seen people playing it competitively.

[Here on Sports Maniac System, it's guaranteed there are darts contests.]

[privateeyed]

Ah. Sorry for your loss, too?

[norse gods are freakin' hardcore and weird]

Yeah, darts are considered some kind of sport. Usually for drunks, but you know, sporting planet. Anything with a target would work.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor merely hums his thanks this time, a touch more thoughtful. The loss of Hela was a complicated thing. He had barely known her, but it was still a loss.]

I have seen the things in bars on Earth too, so that makes sense. I had never used one before though. Throwing sharp items at small targets is something my brother is more fond of than me.

[privateeyed]

That and uh - Cornhole. You toss beanbags into a piece of wood with a hole cut in the middle. But that might be more of a boonies bar game. Who's your brother?

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor blinks at that description.]

Why would it be called "cornhole" if you are throwing it into wood?

Loki. He is in the Fleet as well.

[privateeyed]

You're asking the wrong guy. Might've been played with corn at some point? It's a mystery.

[. . .]

Oh, him. I've met him. [he sounds absolutely thrilled look at this thrilled face]

[rebuildyourruins]

[That's definitely the look of someone who's met Loki. He just grins.]

So I can see.

[privateeyed]

I busted his balls on the network and I don't think he appreciated it. Nor did he appreciate me not giving a fuck about his insults.

[rebuildyourruins]

No, I doubt he would. He's very fond of those.

[privateeyed]

Yeah, I kinda noticed. He likes to go for the throat.

[rebuildyourruins]

Well, try not to bare it for him and you'll probably be all right.

[privateeyed]

Aww, but it's fun to watch him try. [Ben no] Don't worry, I'm not into egging people into shit. As fun as talking to him is.

[rebuildyourruins]

[Thor just shrugs. If Ben wants to harass Loki then that's his own business.]

I'm not worried.

[privateeyed]

Yeah, yeah. [of course not, if Loki wanted to he could like, snap his fingers and kill Ben or something, who even knows.

He makes a gesture up] The tech's good here, if you want to pick up a replacement. Dunno if they do the surgery or whatever, but you might luck out. At the very least, you could lose the eyepatch if you get tired of the pirate jokes.

[rebuildyourruins]

[It's not something Thor's really considered, getting a replacement eye. He's had bigger concerns, and whenever he does think about the eye it's more adapting to the loss of it. Maybe he'll have to think it over.]

Well, I'll see what's around, but it is not a priority for me at the moment.

[privateeyed]

Fair enough. [yeah, he wouldn't see it as priority either] Bet the girls like the eyepatch anyway. Or the guys. I don't judge.

[rebuildyourruins]

[He laughs at that.]

I can't say anyone's brought it up yet, not like that.

[privateeyed]

Seriously?

[Ben is real dumb when it comes to this stuff but ...... ]

[rebuildyourruins]

Not so far. I got more comments about my haircut.

[privateeyed]

Why the haircut?

[rebuildyourruins]

[He sighs. The initial annoyance has worn off by now, but it's still aggravating to think about.]

I had much longer hair before. It got cut off by a creepy old man.

[privateeyed]

[ohhh. He winces a little in sympathy]

That shit takes forever to grow out, too.

—wait, creepy old man? Why'd you let a creep cut your hair?

[rebuildyourruins]

I didn't let him, I was forced into it. I was a prisoner at the time.
