Bonus White Lie - The Appearance of an AU AND CROSSOVER.

[used_ice_burn]

 Loki's apparently separated briefly from his recent travel mate (likely just by running ahead) on pursuit of one of the scared pokemon around the area that have cropped up. He's got a bag on his back and a swadloon protectively stuffed in it, and behind him his other pokemon run.

"Thori, burn it!" he shouts, all while giving an odd look to the jellicent. The jellicent vanishes; the fire from Thori spews forth in the meantime, and the shadowy pokemon he's targeting dodges. "GO!" he orders seemingly for the second time, the shadow dodging once again-

Well, almost. The jellicent reappears, and a torrent of water slams it back in Loki's path. A pokeball is thrown and...

...Caught! It pops itself out right after in fact, kneeling. Loki seems rather cheery about this, looking him over. "You remind me of Wilson," he notes, and the bisharp seems to be rather surprised by that. Loki's grin grows. "Hello Wilson!"

"Hello Loki."

Loki turns with a fair bit of surprise at that- this is... "...Well." Um. "...Sorry to say this, but... I don't believe I know you!" This is awkward...



"No." The girl standing before him smirks. "Not yet at least."

What.

[[Note; action responses come from both characters; however, it's possible to speak to either or over the transceiver!! Loki's AU is a crossover; the character here is Haibara Ai, from Detective Conan.]]

Ah? [Oh, now he notices. He doesn't seem to mind, though.]

Is he a kitsune as well, then?

[Totally serious question there.]

[used_ice_burn]

Nothing so 'mythic'- or at least hereditary.

[silverfurredfox]

...Eh?

[At first he's confused. Someone turned him? 'Gin' was certainly dangerous enough that some would want him on their side as a weapon of sorts, but she had said 'not mythic'. So probably not. And besides, it usually took at least a tail's worth of power, and that wasn't something to be sneezed at.

Then he considered.]

Work related?

[used_ice_burn]

In a sense...

You'll find that for once, I was quite uninvolved with this particular experiment. More importantly, that was not all which occurred.

If your own character is natural as it is, then you're already far healthier than him. I'll have to congratulate you for that. [Ai you've been hanging aruond Loki too much.]

[silverfurredfox]

Hm... Maa, who can say? I'm not human, and wasn't born human. I've never thought quite like a human would, even when I most look like I should.

I suppose I have the fact that foxes are naturally both playful and predators to thank for my sanity.

Am I allowed to ask what else occurred, if that was not all?

[used_ice_burn]

To Conan-kun and myself? Suddenly our largest threat vanished for an entire three years.

Supposedly due to the fact that an isolated section of 'their' control was too much to risk losing...

I won't lie- I don't know the details. However, prior those three years, he was in fact as cruel as your 'mask'... After?

[...The look says it all.]
