[ Video ]

_{[ The picture that comes up is that of one Captain Kirk, his lips drawn into a meld of thin line and irritated purse. It is a rare expression for him, but in this case it is well deserved. He's sitting in his room, on his bed, the wall behind him, and a slug perched on his shoulder. He needed the soothing influence. ]}

I don't know which if your sponsors -

_{[ He inserted air quotes here ]}

Thought to send this particular care package, but it's not nearly as tactful, funny, or even comforting as you might think it is.

<sub>[ He held up a letterman style jacket, which seemed innocent from the front in its black and white coloring. But then he turned it to the back, where proud letters were emblazoned -

I DIED AND I SURVIVED ]</sub>

I got a whole box of them. If you want one, I guess... come and get one? Though really if you want me to burn them, I'm happy to do that too. Take some marshmallows to them as well, because why not at this point?

[ Action - Bazaar/Shops ]

<sub>[ Kirk had taken some of the jackets from the box and brought them here. Even though he had made an offer to burn them, he thought they might be more useful if they could traded for credit or some sort. The leather and construction on the jackets was nice and sturdy. Surely the people out here could appreciate that and pay a pretty penny for it, even if the back was... unpleasant.

He could be seen trying to barter the jackets for some supplies, mostly food to round out the goo, sometimes some things to keep them occupied like new games he found, or even just some new clothes to freshen things up. But he seemed to be having similar conversations at every stall - ]</sub>

What kind of bad luck you trying to bring around here? Ain't no way in hell I'm trading for that!

_{[ And other variations, often with less than viewer friendly wording. Definitely not a hit. ]}

Compared to some other gifts I know people have gotten? Suppose that's true.

If you want one, you'll have to come get it though. I'm on the Tourist.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki grimaces briefly. ]

I'll consider it.

[universal_charm]

I know, it's practically a quest, but with great effort comes great reward.

_{[ The Sarcasm Is Real. You can practically physically feel the eye roll. ]}

[dothelokimotion]

You call this a great reward?

[universal_charm]

I was being sarcastic.

_{[ Surely you heard it, right Loki? Or are you one of those people who doesn't get sarcasm? ]}

[dothelokimotion]

If you think that qualifies as sarcasm, you're not very good at it.

[universal_charm]

Your critique has been noted.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki idly flicks his fingers. ]

I should hope so. My gift of language lives on in human history.

[universal_charm]

Yeah, definitely not what your known from the history books I read.

[dothelokimotion]

Strange history books, to involve what most would consider myth.

[universal_charm]

Myth is a part of cultural history. It shapes many things.

[dothelokimotion]

And yet, you all missed the actual history that took place. Interesting that the myths lasted but the actual war and devastation was forgotten.

[universal_charm]

Well considering that ancient peoples actually believed in gods and had enough problems, so, unsurprising.

[dothelokimotion]

[ He huffs lightly. ]

We are gods, so that isn't wrong. Only the nature got a little . . . convoluted.

[universal_charm]

_{[ He makes a noise as to what he thinks about that statement. It's not polite. ]}

Sounds like another of those stories that got lost to history.

[dothelokimotion]

[ his eyes narrow briefly. ]

What a surprise.

[universal_charm]

Should I leave the whiskey out for when you come to collect your jacket? Or are you a mead sort of guy?

_{[ He didn't have mead. Wished he did though. ]}

[dothelokimotion]

Whiskey will do. I'll come by soon.

[universal_charm]

I'll make sure I put the good china out, in that case.

[dothelokimotion]

Do you even have any?

[universal_charm]

You'll just have to come by and see, won't you?

[dothelokimotion]

I suppose I must.

[universal_charm]

You really must. I await your arrival utmost excitement.
