[ video + planet catchall ] so bring your good times and your laughter too
Who: Loki + You
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Yes
When: Right here, right now.
[ video ]
[ Loki is sitting on a chair, decked in . . . a large fancy red robe. The background music is currently playing this song, something he heard on the planet and immediately stole for his own needs. He's sitting on the chair, legs slightly up in the air like he don't care because guess what — ]
It seems my request was approved and I am now the captain of the First Breath. Rest assured, I will treat my crew benevolently. Possibly with beer and movies.
[ i. knife play ]
[ Loki has never liked competitions.
Which seems like a paradox because Loki certainly likes to win. But he never had the acumen for Asgard's sports. He could barely lift their swords and axes, after all, constantly stumbling and falling into the dirt. A weakling. It was his mother, a shield-maiden of old who gifted him with his daggers, showed him the form he needed. And like the crack of a white, Loki's knife-throw was impeccable. He could cut down men twice his size meters away. So he found himself here, one of the Bright Birds (for now), flicking daggers at the bulls eye with ease, letting the applause wash over him.
It felt . . . good. That doesn't happen very often for Loki. Briefly, he wonders if this is how Thor feels all the time. He waves back briefly. ]
Why thank you. Please bring out a challenge, next time.
[ ii. poker ]
[ Money is not something Loki gives a lot of thought to. He has noticed the decent influx of money that comes to him via the Atroma and he is a little pleased. A twisted sense of appreciation in a way (something Loki has never been fully able to rebuke, even if he recognizes where it stems from). Either way, he's not going to complain about it as he moves the cash forward before leaning back with a lazy smirk. His opponent looks most disgruntled, folding his cards and leaving Loki with the winnings. As they leave Loki's table, some of Loki's cards vanish in a flicker of gold light. As the next person approaches, Loki smiles, sitting up straight. ]
Care for a game?
[ iii. thor merchandise ]
[ Eventually, the lure of competing (and winning easily, even if he is cheating half the time) gets old, so he takes up the lucrative job of marketing. Everyone who comes up to the stall gets a Thor button to pin on their shirts. Unfortunately, after a while, the button changes to "THOR SUCKS" because that's just how life is. However, when you come back for your refund, Loki is gone.
But for now, you can come up and get some authentic Thor merchandise! ]
[ wildcard your adventure! ]
[ Loki can be found at the fashion shows, checking out art galleries and the libraries. You can drop a PM for an idea/starter or ping me at

[Because, really, the demigod is dressed like he's about to offer carnal pleasure as a mean to win his crew over, along with beer and movies. And why choose this horrible rendition of such a good classic?]
What did you do to the previous captain?
[Sorry god of mischief, this looks too suspicious to Strange.]
no subject
The Atroma did away with him, not I.
no subject
How convenient for you, I'm sure.
I can't say I'm impress with the Atroma's abilities to judge good character.
[But then again, Strange is not impress with their captor in general, so this is nothing new.]
no subject
That suits me fine. The less you say, the better.
[ But Loki plans to work the system. Look good, look profitable until there's a way to weasel closer and rid himself of their overlords. ]
no subject
I could say the same about you, but you like hearing your voice better than I do mine, [and that's quite saying,] so it's just futile.
[That's actually not a bad plan and one day when Strange will be less sour about their whole ordeal, he might offer to get on the 'get rid of their overlord' plan, especially if it means going home for everyone that wants to go home. But for now, he's just going to question everything regarding Loki's appointment as a captain. Maybe he ought to start a pool for when his crew will mutiny.]
So, how many on your crew you have to be 'benevolent' to?
no subject
[ To Strange's question, transparent as it was, Loki shrugs. ]
Six at least.
no subject
Oh, I've never had any complaints.
[Speech performance, or otherwise. He's used to speak in front of crowds, from the many years of giving talks on neuroscience, or the importance of funding research, his most importantly of course.]
Are you sure that's not too many people on your team? Seems to me like you're the kind to prefer crews of one only.
no subject
[ Loki snorts delicately. ]
You know nothing of me. This bare-bones guess work is dull.
no subject
I don't recall you finding it so dull when you were asking all of the questions. But I wouldn't want to bore you more than necessary.
Do pass my condolences onto your crew for your nomination. And while I suppose receiving well wishes is most likely beneath, I'll wish you good luck with your new position, captain.
[With a thin, polite smile, Strange ends the feed.]
