DIADEM HOTEL;;

[ if you're by the pool you'll find Thor there on occasion-- not at all bothered by his eyepatch or metal arm as he lays by the pool (he's broken one deckchair already) reading whatever gossipy magazines are around.

the restaurant is somewhere else he'll be often found, consuming as much food as the kitchen staff are willing to produce. it's nothing on Asgardian fare, but Thor won't hold it against them. the whole roast pig is well cooked, and he'll happily share it with anyone else who's around and looks hungry or just like they want to talk

he's also available in his rooms -- both to visitors who he's invited up, or to other new arrivals who might accidentally have been assigned to as well? sorry you'll probably walk in on him in just a towel after a shower but that's fine. ]


[ooc; feel free to wildcard if you'd like to have invited thor to meet your character somewhere! or hit me up at sprakles]

Comments

[dothelokimotion]

[ he had only stopped by to check on sephiroth when he spots someone achingly familiar by the pool. ]

— Thor?

[deemed]

[ Thor puts down the magazine to look across at the man who he's certain he's never met before--

but who he recognises all the same ]

Hail, brother.

[dothelokimotion]

[ it is thor, but not him. loki eyes him warily because you never know how this would go. "you're the worst brother." ]

. . . That's not quite true, is it?

[deemed]

One world or another, we're both sons of Odin.

[ and it really is that simple, for thor. his appraisal of loki is obvious, if a little wary ]

You're the one from the other universe, I take it.

[dothelokimotion]

I am.

[ he inclines his head towards thor. ]

Loki Odinson.

[deemed]

[ thor nods his head back ]

Come, join me for a drink. They do a rather good one here with pineapple.

[dothelokimotion]

[ . . . well. close enough to a good sign. loki drifts nearer. ]

Is that all you've been doing? Drinking?

[deemed]

[ thor has been catching up on the local news and gossip, making contact with those he thinks he knows from home. but loki will think what he wants, in his experience, whatever Thor might say ]

Among other things. There's much to learn about this new world we're in.

[chulk]

[Amadeus hasn't been able to eat until his stomach is full since his grace period ended and he's had to fend for himself. That doesn't stop him from occasionally checking in on the new arrivals to see if anyone would take pity on him and bingo, Thor wouldn't let him starve.]

Hey, this seat taken?

[deemed]

[ thor's a soft touch when he it comes to kids, and everyone knows it. he nods in welcome ]

I'd not heard you were here too. How goes things?

[chulk]

I've mostly been hanging with Ms. Marvel. Not that many people my age from our universe, you know?

[He tries to pull some of the plates of food over to him inconspicuously.]

What about you? When'd you get here?

[deemed]

[ thor, from a culture where feasting for months on end is the norm, helps to pass plates over. you're too small, child ]

What day is it? It's been a day or two. Not long.

[chulk]

[At least now he had a more muscular form even if he now had to eat even more than he did previously to maintain both the Hulk and his brain.]

Did you listen when they said you get two months of freebies?

[Watching Amadeus eat is a little like watching clowns pile into a tiny car. No one knows where it all goes, but he keeps going regardless.]

[hevenly]

[ Perhaps the weekend of the new moon is the wrong time for Angela to decide to use the Diadem pool, but it has been a stressful week dealing with traumatized brothers, and she could use some relaxation time. So she is there, top half dressed appropriately and bottom half covered in fur. If anyone complains about her shedding in the pool, one stern look from her horned visage is enough to scare them into silence.

She is just starting to enjoy herself when she notices a familiar face lounging by the side of the pool, so she decides to wade over. ]

Hail, Odinson. [ Because this is clearly Thor, and not the one she met the other day. ] I did not know you had arrived.

[deemed]

[ thor first notices that there's a centaur in the pool and is-- ]

Sister! I'd heard you were here, but not that you'd become a centaur. Is there some mage out there who requires having revenge exacted upon him?

[ not that he suspects his sister needs any help with revenge, but it's polite to offer. ]

[hevenly]

Minotaur, dear brother. I still possess only two legs, not four.

[ Though it is curious, now that she thinks about it. Of all the monstrous creatures in Ryslig, she never saw a centaur. ]

No mage. A goddess. I will enact my revenge upon her in due time, and I would not turn down your help in the effort when that time comes. But she is in another universe, so the point is moot for now.

[thecoolerloki]

[Hope Thor’s enjoyed himself enough because... in a poof of green smoke, Loki appears lounging in the chair next to him. It is the Loki who burned, the one who sacrificed himself during the Siege of Asgard, but whose shadow still fell over his successors.

While this sort of spell would’ve exhausted the child, the old man seems fine. He swirls a goblet of wine in one hand as he addresses Thor.]

Should I feel hurt you didn’t think to invite me?

[deemed]

[ finding a fourth Loki-- and one which Thor is very familiar with here startles him, and he reaches out a hand for a hammer which isn't there. ]

You--!

[thecoolerloki]

Me!

[He frowns slightly when Thor reaches for a hammer, nonexistent or otherwise.]

From what I recall, you searched the world for me after I died... I thought you'd be happy to see me, brother.

[deemed]

Much has happened since then, brother.

[ the brother he'd brought back-- who he'd thought had changed-- had turned out not to have changed as much as he'd thought. ]

You succeeded, by the way. I brought you back, as you wanted. As a child, like you'd arranged. And when he had established a better name for himself, you killed him and stole his body, just as you'd planned.

[ does he sound bitter? he's bitter. ]

[thecoolerloki]

That wasn't me. That was Ikol.

[Matches his bitterness with disappointment!!!]

I thought you could always recognize me. No matter the form.

[deemed]

[ it takes a second or two to parse that, and the tension still doesn't leave him ]

What-- why choose this form?

[thecoolerloki]

I didn't! There's some manner of enchantment in Excelsior.

[He pouts, an odd expression given his current form.]

But I didn't choose my other form either...

[deemed]

Your other form has fewer acts of malice associated with it.

[ thor starts to frown as he speaks, though. his other brother had claimed the child was somehow leeching his power while he had been turned invisible (or something of the sort) ]

How much control do you have just at present? With your power?

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth is a rare sight around the hotel the first few days, but at last he is beginning to settle, and even he needs to eat sometimes. (Probably? He thinks he does, anyway.)

He was aiming to find a seat in some quiet corner, but he's momentarily distracted by the roast pig. Is that normal Earth restaurant fare? And then he notices Thor. It is Thor, isn't it? Maybe a different one.

There's a clear recognition on his face, but he's going to... try to pretend like there wasn't and keep walking.]
