[ 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. ]

Is this realm preferable to the one you originate from?

[ Some people may be fond of this alternate Midgard... ]

[fireandhoney]

I mean, aside from being the only Dunmer on Earth and not being able to get a good fried kwama, this world isn't so bad.

I mean, have you seen the internet? That shit's amazing. That and onion rings.

[tricksterofasgard]

[ Looks like at least one of them is happy with being here. ]

I read about it. A network of information.

[ But has he tried it? Not yet. Wait until he discovers cat memes. ]

Though I fail to see the appeal of onion rings...

[ Mainly because he's just thinking of raw, sliced onions. And his interest in food is generally very low. ]

[fireandhoney]

[He thought it referred to a fishing net when he first heard about it.]

I find it useful.

[What with information being on his fingertips, and a way to get his artwork out there.]

My boyfriend and I are of the philosophy that everything deep fried is delicious.

[tricksterofasgard]

I think I prefer books.

[ He says now, like any old person would. ]

But you seem to have found something (and someone) to enjoy about this realm. Do you even wish to leave?

[fireandhoney]

I mean, there are times when I miss my family back home, and some of the comforts my world brought, but I have grown fond of this reality too.

[What with how he's literally the only Dunmer on Earth.]

I have friends here, a boyfriend, and conveniences that simply don't exist in my world.

[Honestly, the boyfriend is the biggest reason he'd not want to go home.]

[tricksterofasgard]

[ If Loki were honest, then he would have to admit to missing Asgard and his family. But he has been in exile for years and his family is nothing but a lie. There isn't really anything he would want to return to.

And yet he also isn't very fond of this planet. Something else. He just wants to leave and find himself something entirely different. ]

I cannot say that I share that sentiment, but I will give this realm a chance.

[ If only because he doesn't have much of a choice. ]

Maybe I will give these onion rings a look eventually.

[fireandhoney]

Also, ice cream. I can't recommend that enough.

[tricksterofasgard]

...very well.

[ He's not too sure about that. And maybe just a tad wary regarding ice in general. Too many unwanted associations. ]

Anything else?

[fireandhoney]

Depends on your opinions on eating insects.

[No, he's not being hyperbolic.]

[tricksterofasgard]

Just another type of animal. If I recall correctly, Earth's insects tend to be very tiny, however.

[ Not particularly useful for a meal. ]

[fireandhoney]

Tell me about it. Damn shame.

[His homeland has insects as large as big dog.]

But I have found a few treats.

[Finn reaches into the breast pocket in his jacket and pulls out a wrapped sucker, notable because there's a cricket in the center.]

[tricksterofasgard]

[ And somehow this particular sweet looks wrong, even to Loki. Though it may simply be that sweets of that sort are not exactly something known or consumed on Asgard. Asgardians prefer large feasts to little treats after all.

Meanwhile, Loki tends to stick to the bare minimum to simply keep functioning. ]

It must be something if you always keep one of them at hand.

[ No. He won’t admit that he doesn’t see whatever the appeal is. ]

[fireandhoney]

[Finn comes from a land where most of the fauna is large insectoids, so eating insects is no big deal to him.]

I find it's handy to keep any kind of snack on hand.

[Unless it has walnuts in it. But he has a feeling it's best not to tell Loki about his food allergy.]

[tricksterofasgard]

Then, by all means, do not let me keep you from your snacks.
