MIDGARDIAN CREATURE BATTLE NUMBER 2

   [Action - Loki (and potentially Amane)]

"HrrrrrAAAAH-!" Thor seems to be having a grand old time at the Dreamyard right now- and there's not much surprise as to why. Alongside his own mareep's training, he seems to have found a way to work on his own fighting!

...Namely by duking it out either against the concrete pillars in the area, or the trees. "Hahaha!!" Speaking of, one of those pillars just fell. "Even with the strangeness of the air here my strength has not left me!"

Wow Thor, enough pride?

['Video' - Afterward]

[There's nothing on the screen but static, and what little video appears will show that it is dark, or at least blurred enough that you can't see much more than blobs of colour. But you can hear what sounds like heavy breathing- either of the worried or despairing sort.]

Action

[personal profile] togetherwefell 2012-07-28 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Amane is currently working on her own training a short way away, and mostly rolling her eyes at him.

Loki, meanwhile...

Loki is coming up from the lower areas of the Dreamyard, Thor racing ahead of him - and, because of that, catching sight of the others first. Tired but in a good way, Thor starts going over to say hello to the other electric-type. Loki follows behind, and only catches sight of Thor - the other Thor - after...

At first, he stops, unable to do anything other than stare. Then, he starts to move forward slowly, still keeping his eyes on his 'brother'.

"You're younger than I am. That's a change."

Amane will be looking between the two of them with confusion. This is obviously something she's not going to be getting.

Loki smiles. And, being that it's Loki, and where he is in life... it isn't so welcoming as Thor's.

"So you would still think. But essentially, yes."

Thor (the pokemon) stops, and looks back at its trainer, questioning. And wondering what was going on just as much as Amane.

He shakes his head. "I forget how naive we were back then." He steps forward. And again. "You're young. And not quite how I remember. It might be different for you...I highly doubt it, however," he adds with a momentary glance away.

"You'd be surprised what Odin never told you. Either of us."

...More than you know, Loki.
togetherwefell: (I am burdened with purpose.)

Oh boy.

"He went to such lengths to keep the truth from you both? Your grandmother gave me nothing."

He'd been trying to stay even, but somehow that last had come out as a snarl. It didn't help that by the time he'd found himself in Unova, 'his' Thor had already known. Seeing him again, and being so-

Or maybe it was just because he was Thor.
togetherwefell: (I am burdened with purpose.)

Eeeeeeeep?

[personal profile] togetherwefell 2012-07-29 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
"Proud? Talented I might be, but I was never you, Thor. Never. And how could you say that you saw-"

That couldn't be possible. He'd been brought back from Jotunheim, Odin had said so, even for them to have seen Frigga prior to his arrival, they must have known...

"You must have been lied to. I was not born in Asgard."

Well, there goes that bombshell - complete with disgust at the very bare fact of it.

But still keeping his eyes on Thor's face, desperate to know his reaction, see if this younger version would act in the way he had always expected of the hotheaded 'brother' he'd grown up with. Making himself not look away for it.
togetherwefell: (I am burdened with purpose.)

[personal profile] togetherwefell 2012-07-29 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"Constantly in your shadow!" If he noticed, he isn't showing it. That, or pretending the brokenness isn't there.

Amane, torn between wanting to stop the two from their fighting and not wanting to get caught between them, is saved the choice when her Absol steps in front of her.

Loki, meanwhile, has now come right up to Thor, finding it odd how he's now the taller one. For now, anyway.

"Face the truth! When was I ever like you? Any of you? Who would stand by me as they would you if they so much as thought that I was not truly Odin's son?"

His fists are clenching. It's taking all he has to retain even a veneer of calm, and it's not working very well. He's angry, and he's frustrated - this isn't his, this Thor hasn't even done most of those things, but he's still Thor, and maybe, just maybe, there's a part of him that hopes that if he knows all of this now, then he won't be so bad later on. That things would work out better.

But mostly, there's anger. And he's barely holding himself back from lashing out physically.

There's a growl at the back of his throat- "I have already seen to what lengths your friends would serve you over me! They betrayed my trust when I needed it the most, and thought nothing of it!"

He glances at the lock of hair, and scoffs, somewhat rolling his eyes.

"I am not. Even if I thought so then, I know the truth now. And I remember not such an event, or your ever having worn such a thing."

This place had taken away his daggers, but hair was hair, and it was merely tied on- it didn't take much to reach up and tear it off. This was not his brother.

He-

What...?

There is no time to protest that he had been wearing it since it was presented. There was no time to protest that whatever Loki thought he knew to be true was a lie.

"Ach-!" His eyes, initially, are drawn to the fallen lock. "Loki-!"

He stares at it, looking up immediately with eyes he has not yet realized are changed. "Brother... Why..."
freeze_shock_icons: (...WHAT)

4/4 wHOO!

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-29 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
...

And then suddenly it occurs to him that Loki does not have triumph, guilt... Nothing he would even begin to expect on his face.

It is... "...Brother... Why do you look at me so..?"
togetherwefell: (To be soft is for the weak.)

;u;

[personal profile] togetherwefell 2012-07-29 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
No, Loki doesn't have any of that on his face - instead, he's backing away, hand dropping the tie as though it were a hot coal in his hand, eyes wide. Finding it hard to breathe.

Blue. Thor had just gone blue. Just as he had. This...

"I... I didn't mean for this."

Hadn't been what he'd expected. At all.

"Sorry, I- I'm sorry. I-"

And then he's not just backing away, he's trying to run, which doesn't work so well at first since his legs seem to have turned to lead. But out. Anywhere.

Anywhere but here.

-gross sobbing-

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-29 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Didn't mean for what..?" What is he talking about now..??

He reaches out- "What are you so-"

Blue.

Eyes snap to his arms as he looks himself over and now it's his legs that feel like they've turned to solid lead. "What..." Blue, blue, blue, and with a jolt it feels like all the warmth he's been ignoring isn't so easy to ignore and... He looks back to Loki. "...What is this.."
togetherwefell: (To be soft is for the weak.)

[personal profile] togetherwefell 2012-07-29 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Loki is already gone by now, although you might get a glance of Thor (the Emolga) racing to catch up with him, shouting in pokespeak for his trainer to slow down, and what's going on, anyway?

Amane is finally allowed to move, although she does so hesitantly, only taking one or two steps toward her travel companion.

"Th- Thor-san...?" Slipping back into the old honorifics of her earlier childhood. "Are you... are you okay? Wh- what just happened there?"

She isn't making the connection between blue and Jotun because it didn't work that way int the myths, and she... didn't read American comics.
freeze_shock_icons: (ow ow owww...)

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-29 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
He falls to his knees. "It... Cannot..."

It's strange- Thor the 'thunderer', whose voice matched the title, speaking so quietly. Looking back with what could even be called fear in his eyes. There is no strength to put up a mask. The shock is too great.

"...How can this..."
usedmemento: (But if we just keep smiling)

And now for some more angst.

[personal profile] usedmemento 2012-07-30 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
She falteringly goes up to him, struck by how similar the situation is right now to when she first arrived in her own pokemon world - her mother had broken down as well. She steeled herself, and knelt near to him.


"Thor-san? It's going to be all right, okay? I... I don't know what just happened, or how to make it better, but it's going to be all right..."

"But this..." Welp. "Only full jotun look like this..! Only the frost giants..!!"

ANGS AND DRAAMAAAAA

She shakes her head - this answers as much as it doesn't.

"I know that name, but Papa never said anything about you being like that in the stories he told me... It doesn't change anything though, does it?"

The little girl has no clue of the cultural ramifications of this.
freeze_shock_icons: (Forgive me.)

I don't even think cultural implications/ramifications are hitting him right now. ;n;

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-30 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
"Nn... My father is of Asgard..." He trembles. "My mother, also... Of Asgard... So then what does this make me..?"
usedmemento: (The greatest adventure)

Poor baby. ;-;

[personal profile] usedmemento 2012-07-30 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
She isn't sure what to say. She'd always known who she was, and she'd always known who both of her parents were - the only thing she could relate with was the sudden breaking away from a brother.

So, she shrugs, albeit awkwardly.

"Mama always told me you are what you eat. Maybe it was a lot of blueberries?"
freeze_shock_icons: (Forgive me.)

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-30 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Headshaking. Lots and lots of headshaking. "No- I know what this is, it is jotun skin but I..."

He holds his head- gripping it tight, eyes shut- "...Why would they hide this..? My brother, even he... He didn't want me to take my lock out ever..." Everyone 'knew'.

Except... Him, as it seemed.
usedmemento: (Sure things might get glum)

[personal profile] usedmemento 2012-07-30 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
She bites her lip. "Loki-san said something like that, didn't he?" She shook her head. Nothing about the brothers made a whole lot of sense, and she had the feeling that looking into it right now wouldn't be such a great idea.

"But that wasn't the same Loki, was it? He didn't recognise your hair braid. It can't have been, right?"

That isn't quite the point he was making, Amane...
freeze_shock_icons: (Forgive me.)

He's more upset that they didn't tell him sghshg- Family relations doesn't even occur ;;u;;

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-30 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
"No... ...But he knew what this-" he gestures to himself- "Meant... Why would my family hide such a thing..? I know..." He ducks his head once again. "I know that Asgard and Jotunheim's relations are strained... But why would they not tell me..?"
usedmemento: (Sure things might get glum)

VERY much like Loki's initial reaction, then. ;-;

[personal profile] usedmemento 2012-07-30 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know... maybe they didn't want to see you upset? People always hide things from each other because of that. Like Mama, when... But it doesn't make them bad people."
freeze_shock_icons: (Forgive me.)

[personal profile] freeze_shock_icons 2012-07-30 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
"..." He looks like a giant blue puppy dammit...

"...But then when would they..?"
