[ The storm sirens have been shrieking in the city for about a solid minute before the video feed starts on Thor’s ruddy and smiling face. He adjusts the bracelet where it sits on his desk and steps back, already pulling on some pretty ornate looking armor. ]

Sound the bells of war!

[ His voice is low and bellowing, but clearly pleased. This is one god visibly pleased beyond measure. ]

Those lot of you bellyaching to me before about having nothing to do? I expect to see you on the front lines with me!

Brilliant. It took you long enough. Now turn that infernal noise off, will you? [ Y E A H, he's not gonna fight with you. He's gonna fight on his own. Like a boss loser. ]

[asgardsstrength]

Not a chance! The troops need rallying, don't they?

[video]

[clockeyes]

Where are these front lines? What, are they already attacking? Without even a warning...?

[DOES HE HAVE TO ENGAGE IN "KILL ALL THE ENEMIES" MODE IS THAT IS WHAT IS GOING ON D8]

[video]

[asgardsstrength]

Come on, now! You've had plenty of time to prepare!

[samantha_grey]

Oh, aren't you just a ray of blaring, screeching sunshine waiting to wake someone up like a colossal hangover? I'll be making sure the healers don't get croaked if these asshats get half a brain, which I expect they will.

[asgardsstrength]

Nothing like a little music to prepare yourself for a fight.

[ He is, of course, talking about the sirens. ]

Fantastic.

[stakes]

Thor?! [ she's never actually seen him act like a badass to date, so she's a little surprised at first. ] On my way!

video.

[asgardsstrength]

You sound surprised.

[ He is the definition of badass, ma'am. ]

And that's the spirit!

[likethelight]

[He won't be bothering to reply. Hesitating, maybe, but ultimately not; there's not really a point to. Although it doesn't mean he won't be front and center very soon—of his own accord.

There's just something that sits a little sour about being pleased over such a thing.

He'd already left to find the fighting as soon as he'd heard the sirens anyway.]

[ofthursday]

We have actual warning before an attack, this time?

[Wow, that's an improvement. He still sounds incredibly unimpressed.]

[Video] :o

[asgardsstrength]

It's not an attack. It's the attack.

[ And he could not be happier about it. ]

[asgardstricks]

Try not to get killed, oaf.

[asgardsstrength]

As if anything could touch me.

[pratentious]

[ Well, fuck. If Thor is suiting up, so is Arthur. Where is his useless manservant? ]

What news, Thor? How near are they?

[asgardsstrength]

[ He knew he liked you for a reason, Arthur. ]

Close enough to sound the alarms! Make sure your sword is polished and ready to go, eh?

[video]

[eggsterminate]

Alright, might admit I've been a bellyacher. Can't stand being bored. But at 5'2" and barely 7 stone, not exactly battle material. Need any weapons made or... enemy communications hacked?

[video]

[asgardsstrength]

Every soldier needs a good weapon. -- well, except for me, of course: I've already got my own weapons.

[ He's preening. ]

Best offer your services elsewhere.

[video]

[itsasecret]

[She looks nonplussed. Your sirens woke her up from a nap.]

I was having a very pleasant dream.

[video]

[asgardsstrength]

This is no time for slumber! There's a battle to be had.

[robb]

[ S U P. Thor. Your district captain is here. BC !! he's only serving your district because one of his sisters lives there but-- ]

If you expect us to win this war you can't send those of us without experience. Do you find yourself with a plan, your grace?

[asgardswisdom]

[ excuse him cutting in while his son is busy enjoying himself more than is really decent. ]

The Folkvang Comfort House has been reinforced to a safe zone, or the closest thing you're going to get under the circumstances. Anyone that can't fight should hole up there until this is over.

[veneficus]

You are joining the fight?

[ well that's unusual. She must change clothes quickly but - ]

Where shall we meet you?

[asgardsstrength]

As if I'd miss out on something as spectacular as this! But go where you're needed. I'm a soldier right now, I don't have time to play commander, too.

[meant]

( it is robb's face he has, and robb's voice, but it can't be him. robb doesn't wear pretty armor, because that isn't the way of the northmen - forever practical, and austere. but if he isn't robb...

alayne wants to ask him - about why he chose this face to bear, among the thousands of others. but there are more important things to be doing, or asking. )

I cannot bear arms, my lord.

video;

[asgardsstrength]

Then help someone who can.

[ And his voice actually softens, just a little bit. ]

Or go to the safehouse and keep yourself out of danger. Don't burden those who do fight with worry about you. Go, get.

video.

[ofgallifrey]

Oh, yeah, because kidnapping people throughout time and space and sticking them here with nothing to do ought to make the best soldiers. Lovely plan you have, really.

[The Doctor is just loving this, and by loving I mean he might be a little bit angry. Or a lot angry.]

video.

[asgardsstrength]

[ Thor is pretty dense, but even he is able to hear the anger in the Doctor's words. ]

Oh, you speak as if we had a choice. It's not just us you're fighting for.

[etherealblast]

[He seemed.... enthusiastic.

Fayt couldn't say he agreed with the sentiment.]

How long do we have until they reach the city?

[asgardsstrength]

No idea!

[ Boy, is he ever jolly. ]

But I hear the alarms as you do. No time for dithering!

[tipsygnostalgia]

Try not to look so damn happy.

[asgardsstrength]

It can't be helped! I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for this.

[ CHIPPER GOD IS A GO. ]

[lookingfordragon]

So there really is a war then...
[She doesn't like the idea of fighting without knowing the full situation but lives are at stake. With that thought in mind she's going to get ready to help with defending them.]

Where are they coming from?

video

[asgardsstrength]

What does that matter right now? They're on their way here.

video;

[zodiacal]

Are you usually this chipper over possibly dying?

video;

[asgardsstrength]

I don't exactly plan on dying.

video;

[emblazing]

[ ro..bb...except not. anyway. ]

What of those who cannot? Are there places where they might find shelter?

video;

[asgardsstrength]

The Folkvang Comfort house. I'd recommend you get to it sooner rather than later.

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

How cheerful of you. I don't think most people would consider a war their source of entertainment.

[Video]

[asgardsstrength]

I'm hardly most people.

[suppressthedark]

[Unlike most of the people responding to Thor, Ichigo isn't filled with questions over what's going on, or how long they have. As soon as he hears the word War he's on his feet, grabbing Zangetsu and looking out the windows.

It's happening. It's finally happening, and an odd mixture of apprehension, fear, and...delight? run through him. He shoves down the oddly happy sliver of feeling, setting his face into a fierce scowl. He shouldn't be happy about this, people are going to die and be injured and if they don't fight hard enough, their own worlds will die.

But it's still there, behind his eyes as he flips on the feed and addresses the god of his House. Even the most hardened warrior can't deny when he feels the joy of battle, after all.]

Of course I'll be there.

[For now, he can put aside his grievances with the Gods. There's more important things to protect.]

[video]

[asgardsstrength]

[ Thor just grins a little at that, flashing his eyebrows at him. ]

Glad to hear it.
