[ Gold. Hopefully you like gold, because you will see a lot of it. Heavy golden walls behind a large golden throne. Comfortably seated within? A potentially new face, looking pleased and overall just friendly enough despite being clad in full armor, complete with large, horned helmet and holding a golden spear in his hand.

Can you possibly see through illusions? Then enjoy Loki occupying a regular living room while casually holding a broom. He's just here to deliver a show, really. The armor and helmet are real, however.

After permitting the image to settle for a moment, he finally speaks. Loki's initial words are measured carefully. ]

Mortals of this realm.

[ He raises from his throne and takes a step forward before settling into a meaningful pose. ]

You have earned yourself the protection of a god.

[ You get another moment to take this in. Or just enjoy looking at this god. Then, all of Loki's dignified behavior and display slips away in favor of a wide, open grin and his unoccupied hand gestures lightly. ]

They could have just asked, though. You know? Instead of just pulling me here and--

[ He lets that trail off with a dismissive wave of his hand. Let's not talk about that, okay? ]

I am Loki. Rightful King of Asgard.

[ That same hand that has just been gesturing dismissively is now placed over his own chest as Loki offers a bow to his audience. ]

And I look forward to serving you.


[ For his roommates at Nonah #004: Your living room is currently stuck under an illusion. You will find yourself stepping right into Asgard's throne room. It's painfully golden. Enjoy your new Asgardian pest. ]

[ Hello, random human. Your question gets you a raised brow from this Asgardian. ]

Why, my people certainly used to inspire those tales. So in a way yes, I am. At least on the Midgard I am more familiar with than this one.

[detectivedwloki]

You certainly look the part.

[tricksterofasgard]

I would dare to say that it makes sense for me to look like myself.

[detectivedwloki]

I guess so.

I'm Detective Loki. Seems we have that one thing in common.

[tricksterofasgard]

[ Okay, that’s new. Is it flattering? Who knows. At least he doesn’t appear offended. ]

It appears that way, Detective.

Despite your name you are perfectly human, are you not?

[detectivedwloki]

Yes, I'm human.

You do know that's a strange question to ask, right?

[tricksterofasgard]

Not to me. There are other humanoid species out in the universe.

[detectivedwloki]

Cyborgs. Aliens. Shapeshifters. Seems this place has it all.

And now gods.

You know, somebody told me I should change my name to avoid being associated with you.

[tricksterofasgard]

And did they give you a reason why that supposedly is a bad thing?

[ Such innocence. ]

[detectivedwloki]

Only that you're the god of mischief.

[tricksterofasgard]

[ Loki just shrugs. No denying that bit. ]

Not all of us can be the God of Thunder.

[ Which kiiiiind of is a sore spot for him, but he shall hide that. ]

[detectivedwloki]

Thor? Maybe they think that's a more trustworthy name.

[tricksterofasgard]

Pick someone else.

[ Do you see that frown? It implies that he may feel the urge to kill you if he has to call you by his brother’s name. ]

[detectivedwloki]

Like I told the other guy, I'm not changing my name.

[tricksterofasgard]

I think I will settle with Detective.

[ Titles tend to work. ]

[detectivedwloki]

That's for the best.

Do I just call you Loki?

[tricksterofasgard]

Preferably.

[ No surname, no titles, just his name. ]

I believe we have found an agreement.

[detectivedwloki]

You're very reasonable, Loki.

[tricksterofasgard]

[ Okay, he doesn't hear that often. Way to flatter this Asgardian. ]

Not what you would expect of the God of Mischief?

[detectivedwloki]

Not from the warnings I was given.

They seem to expect you'll always be up to some mischief.

[tricksterofasgard]

Only when I am bored.

[ Which, admittedly, he is often. ]

[detectivedwloki]

So you use mischief to... spice up your life?

[tricksterofasgard]

Should I not?

[detectivedwloki]

As long as you're not hurting anyone.

[He doesn't know this Loki's history.]

[tricksterofasgard]

Worry not. I harbor no such plans.

[ At the moment. ]
