Why just have one Asguardian when you can have TWO?

Mmn -- plus it's a lot of fun~

What about your story?

[onemisdirection]

Well. Through some gory and complicated shenanigans . . . Thor learned a terrible, shocking secret.

He has a sister.

One our mothers thought dead.

[keytoexilellence]

[:O!]

[...Eating another brownie without taking her eyes off Loki]

[onemisdirection]

Thor confronted the All-Mother, as he does. After a tedious amount of emotional outbursts, they told him the truth. There was a Tenth Realm.

Long ago, Asgard warred against a race that called themselves Angels. They were winged female warriors, armored and cruel. In the midst of battle, they nicked our sister--then just a babe--and stabbed her.

In a fit of rage, Odin removed the Angel's realm from the World Tree, and teal deer, they were cut off from reality. An island in a sea of Nothing. The same thing they claimed the All-Father was king of.

And on that island waited the mysterious sister. So, Thor came to me with a bold plan.

We were to break into this Tenth Realm, possibly shatter all of reality, and take back our sister.

[keytoexilellence]

Did you do it? Did you have to fight with the Angels? Did you get your sister back?

1/? okay let's do this thang!!

[onemisdirection]

Yes, yes, and maybe! With a great deal of my help, naturally.

We were outnumbered a million billion to one. Thor and I fought bravely, side-by-side, hammer and sword.

you know you love it

[onemisdirection]

Until he turned his back, and I slipped away.

[onemisdirection]

[points at her] Now, don't make that face! I had a plan, and it did not involve getting us both killed.

As Thor fought their greatest warrior, Angela, I was negotiating his life with their Queen.

Long story short, I betrayed absolutely everyone, and I saved my brother's hide. Which was good timing, because our dear-and-apparently-departed sister?

Was Angela.

and TA-DAH!! /jazz hands

[onemisdirection]

Raised to hate Asgardians, she was having a bit of an existential crisis. Understandably, she refused to come with us, and instead set out on her own. She's out there right now, writing her own story among the stars. But I have a feeling we'll see her again.

[keytoexilellence]

[A MILLION BILLION TO ONE?!]

[keytoexilellence]

[Giving you that look ANYWAY]

[keytoexilellence]

[ANGELA PLOT TWIST?!]

[keytoexilellence]

[This has been an emotional roller coaster]

Her own story among the stars... Mmn, I hope you do see each other. Family should stick together.

[onemisdirection]

[keeping up the tradition of the other story kids I play]

Mm, that they should. And if she drops by, well. My couch is very comfy.

[vaguely swirls his hand] Thor likely won't remember her, just to warn you.

[keytoexilellence]

He won't? Why not...?

[onemisdirection]

I'm back from the future! [JAZZ HANDS]

[then points to himself]

He doesn't remember me looking like this. So he's behind in the timeline. I'd wager quite a bit behind, based on how he's acting.

[keytoexilellence]

Oooh... I won't tell him, then.

[onemisdirection]

Good choice.

By the way . . . if you're going to lie, do your homework. Hela isn't Greek or Roman. She's Norse.

[yes, he's been waiting this entire conversation for a good chance to say that]

[keytoexilellence]

[She flushes red at getting caught but it's only a moment of pause]

That's why I asked you. You're Norse too, right?

[onemisdirection]

Yes, all Asgardians are Norse. I'm just giving you a tip, from the trickster god to you.

[swoops out a hand and gives a little bow]

[keytoexilellence]

[Wrinkling her nose and she debates whether or not to press the issue. In the end it's dropped]

Wait, I still have a question though... What happened to the angels and the teal deer? Were they released too?

1/? d y i n g

[onemisdirection]

. . . Teal deer?

[wait. no, Loki, don't waste this]

[onemisdirection]

Ah, yes, the effervescent teal deer of time long past and whimsy. I'm afraid no, they are still trapped, forever grazing the fields of the Tenth Realm.

and done

[onemisdirection]

The Angels, however, have left to roam lands of their own choosing. For what, I don't know, but I doubt they'll start another war. We saw to that.

[keytoexilellence]

The deer were bubbly too? I hope a few come to Camp so I can see them.

...That sounds bad when you say it like that.
